Ignorant Fool’- See How Pastor Sonnie Badu Tears Into Radio Presenter, OB Nartey For ‘Advising’ Him Over Kuame Eugene’s VGMA Award
UK-based Ghanaian gospel musician and pastor, Sonnie Badu has put a radio presenter on the blast for ‘advising’ him when he took to social media to congratulate Kuame Eugene over his recent triumph at the 2020 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards.

Sonnie Badu congratulated the Rockstar- Kuami Eugene after he was adjudged the Artiste of the Year at the just ended VGMAs. Sharing Kuame Eugene’s photo, the popular gospel artiste wrote; “Congratulations my son ,@Kuamieugene remember the secret is humility , hardwork and prayer … much love … it’s purple.”

The post did not enthuse OB Nartey, a Ghanaian radio personality, and motivational speaker who feels Sonnie Badu always wants to make himself relevant by getting more aligned to secular artistes.

He replied to his post by saying; “Good morning Sofo Badu, Go and look for your sons who are struggling in the Gospel industry and stop this unnecessary fame attachments. Noor Congratulations my son Kwame Eugene laughable. This “Don King” spirit won’t help you, the boys who served you are still waiting for you to give them the necessary push and features you promised them.The likes of Max Praise, Yohan, Tino Manford, Royal Chris, Kofi Perprah. You left the Gospel personalities who made us proud to go and claim fathership. What should Baba Sadiq call Kwame Eugene?”

This is where Sonnie Badu lost his cool by labeling OB Nartey as a fool who doesn’t deserve his attention. He fired thus: “If I was an old old old man, this is the advice grandPa Badu will give to his grandchilden for September , it is pretty simple … DO not respond to ignorant fools who want attention, they will waste your time … Jesus did it and it worked for him … ITS PURPLE”

See Sarkodie’s Epic Reaction After American Journalist Asked Him To Address Why Shatta Wale Called Him ‘Poor’

Ghanaian rapper of international repute, Sarkodie has reacted to his ‘poor’ tag hanged on his neck by his friend, Shatta Wale during the time they were beefing.

Speaking in an interview with American journalist, Vladislav Lyubovny commonly known as DJ Vlad on Vlad TV, Sarkodie laughed out loud when the question was posed to him. In reaction, Sarkodie said he had no issues with Wale during the time they were beefing because he came to the conclusion that the Dancehall artiste thrives on controversy.

Sarkodie said since he knows controversy sells for Shatta Wale, he realized the infamous ‘he’s poor’ tag was a product of his gimmicks so he never paid attention to him, thinking he would snap out it soon but he never did for which reason he dissed him in the song, My Advise.

Sarkodie further reminded the journalist that he has patched things up with Shatta Wale and that he supported him at his Black Love Virtual Concert a couple of weeks ago.

Fan Bites More Than She Can Chew After She Called Lydia Forson An Ape- See How The Actress Reacted
Award-winning Ghanaian actress and filmmaker, Lydia Forson has clashed with an uncouth fan who attacked her personality instead of attacking the real issues she put across on her Facebook page.

The beautiful and bubbly actress has often clashed with several Ghanaians across the political divide who have issues with the way she bluntly states the truth in their face which goes against their entrenched views. Her unbiased political stance has caused fanatics of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) and National Democratic Congress (NDC) to always sink their poisonous claws into her skin.

Lately, she has been on the neck of the NPP with series of posts exposing their incompetence and everything that’s wrong with their administration on social media and this has largely become the bone of contention with her fans who belong to the NPP.

That’s exactly what happened when a Facebook user called Hajia Sadia couldn’t swallow a similar post Lydia Forson published a few hours ago on Facebook and attacked her by calling her an ape.
Lydia clapped back by stating; “We have another contestant. Please she’s calling someone an ape – but but but….. should I say it or you can see?”
After the back and forth argument, Lydia finally blocked her and literally nipped her in the bud.

He told Kofi Adoma Nwanwani that, there is a trick he learnt from his boss, which he has also adopted. Kofi Adoma Nwanwani, who was in doubt of how the young man could put his bare hands in a hot oil also decided to give it a try.

He however could not survive the heat on a first attempt. The fried rice seller took him through the trick and Kofi Adoma later dipped his right hand in the hot oil.
The magic was that, he initially dipped his hand in an ice block full of water and takes it straight to the hot oil. He is able to sustain the heat for few minutes with his cold hand.
Kofi Adoma Nwanwani later tried it for the last time and it worked.

It is not advisable for anyone to try this at home.

Chelsea Chief Confirms Frank Lampard transfer Plans after Kai Havertz announcement

Chelsea technical director Petr Cech has confirmed that Frank Lampard will continue to make signings after Kai Havertz becomes the sixth new arrival at Stamford Bridge this summer.

The Blues have reached an agreement with Bayer Leverkusen to purchase the versatile midfielder for around £80million.

That will take Chelsea’s spending over the £200m mark and half of their starting XI on the opening day of the season could be making their debuts.

Attackers Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner were captured before the transfer window even opened.

Defenders Ben Chilwell, Thiago Silva and Malang Sarr all put pen to paper on their deals last week – although the latter will be sent out on loan for the upcoming campaign.

Havertz will become the sixth new arrival in west London but Lampard has no plans to stop his spending there.

Kepa Arrizabala’s turbulent form over the past two years has raised major questions over his long-term future.

Cech explained that the club still have confidence in the 25-year-old shot stopper but also admitted a new No 1 could be brought in.

“Kepa struggled last season, that is unquestionable,” Cech told Sport.cz.

“But the club invested in him and gave him a long-term contract because they believe he has the qualities and attributes to be successful.

“Additions will be made to the squad, perhaps even in goal, and this is what is being discussed now.

“But nobody is giving up on Kepa and we all hope he has a great future.”

The transfer window has been extended until October 5 this year and Cech will be working hard behind the scenes to get more deals over the line.

“The issue of reinforcements is now very much alive,” the ex-goalkeeper added.

“The transfer window is until the end of October this year so there will be a lot of changes after the league begins.

“And the question is how much the coronavirus pandemic will affect everything.”

Cech was instrumental in convincing Werner and Havertz that their futures lie with Chelsea.

The technical director took secret trips to Germany to convince the pair to complete their moves.
