    Today’s Downpour: Several uprooted trees destroy properties in some parts of Accra

    The cities of Accra have never had good news, mostly during the rainy season. After several hours of rain on Monday, May 6, 2024, several uprooted trees blocked roads and destroyed people’s cars in Accra, causing more anxiety than relief.

    The area around the airport and Cantonments experienced tree uprooting due to the intense rains this morning, which also caused flooding on houses and roads.

    It’s being reported that an individual is in a critical condition after the uprooting due to the heavy downpour which leads to blocking of roads at Cantonments.

    It is being reported that uprooted trees have destroyed cars parked close to the landing restaurant in areas like the airport. There have not yet been any notable fatalities or significant injuries.

  • Shatta Wale can easily fill O2 Arena – Arnold Asamoah-Baidoo

    Shatta Wale can easily fill O2 Arena – Arnold Asamoah-Baidoo

    Arnold Asamoah-Baidoo, a pundit for entertainment, has ruled out any possibility that Dancehall artist Shatta Wale could sell out the O2 Arena for a performance.

    Shatta Wale could easily pack the O2, an arena with 20,000 seats, according to Arnold. He went on to say that the Dancehall performer can only do that by working with the right UK promoters.

    Though Shatta Wale has a substantial fan base in the UK and other countries, Arnold claims that his ability to sell out the O2 Arena goes beyond his popularity and fan base.

    “Wale has been in the business for over 20 years, he is also popular in UK, Dubai and other places but you see it goes beyond the praises and popularity we see. He has the catalog and sword.

    “What he has to do is now is to ensure he does not use one promoter. There is one promoter in UK who can make that possible and that’s is Live Nation, he can walk up to Live Nation and discuss his pedigree with them and for his managers to prove to Live Nation that this is what he can do,” he said on Onua FM on May 4.

    He emphasised that Wale could easily sell out the O2 Arena if he worked with other promoters in the UK, such as Akwaaba and Allonia.

    Arnold continued, saying that in order for this to happen, Shatta Wale’s management needed to be able to convince the promoters of his value and abilities and be open to cooperating with them.

    His remarks follow rapper Medikal’s sold-out performance at the O2 Indigo on Friday, May 3.

    With performances by other artists like Shatta Wale, Sarkodie, Jay Bhad, Sister Derby, and Malcom Nuna, the performer put on an electrifying show and sold out the arena.

    Worldwide Miracle Outreach founder Dr. Lawrence Tetteh has shared the amazing story of a plane encounter between dancehall king Shatta Wale and former president John Mahama.

    Dr. Lawrence Tetteh revealed over the weekend that he boarded a flight for London with Ghanaian dancehall musician and National Democratic Congress flag bearer Shatta Wale, and that an intriguing thing happened in the aircraft.

    The prophet disclosed that Shatta Wale approached him while he was seated, requesting help with a crucial task that led to their meeting and an apology to the former president for remarks he had made in the past that had been taken out of context.

    Shatta Wale apologises to Mahama while on his knees and sobbing.
    “Shatta Wale came to me and said ‘my father, I want you to do me a favour. I threw certain words at former President Mahama and I feel very guilty to go to him.’ I held his hand and I marched him there. It was on the plane, publicly and I have videos of it I will share”.

    Dr. Tetteh, expressing his confusion, claimed that Shatta Wale broke down in tears and got down on his knees when he was led to Mahama’s seat.

    He disclosed that Shatta expressed his sincere regret to the former President for making fun of him during one of his uncalled-for outbursts a couple of years preceded.

    Shatta’s impoliteness broke their bond when he spoke to the crowd during Mr. Mahama’s campaign tour.

    However, he told him to act appropriately because he was an example to follow.

    According to Dr. Tetteh, Shatta demonstrated humility, acknowledged his mistakes, and vowed not to repeat his behaviour.

    “It is part of us. And so from time to time and that is why we also haven’t given up on vaccination and so if you are aware, from 5th to 9th May, we are going to do another exercise of COVID vaccination.

    “So we are doing the national COVID-19 vaccination exercise as part of our strategies to reduce COVID to the barest minimum.”

    In response to an increase in COVID-19 infections in healthcare facilities, the Health Service (GHS) announced that it has also launched a national vaccination campaign.

    The vaccination campaign, which is slated to take place from May 4 to May 10, 2024, attempts to lessen the recent spike in cases, especially in Greater Accra, where the highest numbers have been documented.

    The Ghana Health Service highlights the rapid spread of the virus and stresses the importance of strictly adhering to safety procedures.

    During a press briefing, Dr. Franklin Asiedu-Bekoe, Director of Public Health at the Ghana Health Service, underlined the significance of mass vaccination to stop the virus’s spread and urged every Ghanaian to take part in the campaign.

    He stated: “Parts of Accra and a few other regions are reporting a few cases. And it highlights the need for vaccination among Ghanaians. For this reason, we are planning a national COVID-19 vaccination campaign to take place from May 4 to May 10, and we want to encourage every Ghanaian to participate.
