    Doctor Mahamudu Bawumia, the vice president of Ghana and the leader of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), paid a visit to the actor John Bredu Peasah, better known as Drogba, who is currently fighting a rare nerve disorder called demyelination.

    For the past 2.5 years, Drogba, who rose to fame as a result of his role in the TV series Yolo, has been receiving treatment.

    Following Drogba’s announcement of his diagnosis on Friday, his sister Hannah Mensah confirmed this on Monday.

    Drogba has been appealing with the public for financial support to pay for his escalating medical bills ever since he revealed his health condition.

    In the wake of his plea, the Vice President has visited him. In a video sighted by Kobbyjosvan.com, Dr. Bawumia is seen in Drogba’s living room with his aides.

    It is unclear what kind of support the Vice President gave to the ailing Yolo actor during the visit.

    However, donations are still ongoing. To facilitate contributions, details of his bank account were provided, with the account information as follows: Name – John Bredu Peasah, Bank – Access Bank, Account Number – 0535934031, Branch – Adjiriganor Branch.

  • YOLO star Drogba’s sister details about the actor’s health status

    YOLO star Drogba’s sister details about the actor’s health status

    Hannah Mensah, the sister of popular Ghanaian celebrated YOLO TV series star Drogba, discloses her brother’s current state of health.

    On March 8, 2023, actor Jeffrey Nortey, Drogba’s colleague, revealed to the public the news of his health condition, which was determined to be demyelination.

    When the layer of protection surrounding nerves is damaged, it can lead to demyelination, which can cause issues.

    Speaking on Hitz FM yesterday, Drogba’s sister disclosed that her brother have not been well since the last season of YOLO and have been visiting the hospital once every week.

    “I think in his last season, if you can remember, he was not performing like he used to do in the previous season, he tried to act but could not. So, he has been in the house.

    “Right now, we are in the hospital because of his eyes; he is having double vision with the right eye, and he’s having pain with it. We come once every week for treatment and medications prescribed.

    “Last week, we came for the extraction of the fluid from his spine. And that is why we are waiting for the result. They said they have to take the test outside for more inquiries before we have the results out,” she stated.

    She also mentioned that she is not as strong as her brother and that she occasionally needs assistance from others to get through life’s tasks.

  • I will sue Lil win for accusing me of using weed toffee – Mr Logic

    I will sue Lil win for accusing me of using weed toffee – Mr Logic

    Emmanuel Barnes, also known as Mr. Logic, is a Ghanaian entertainment pundit and artist manager. He has taken a strong stand against Kumawood actor Lilwin and announced his intention to file a defamation lawsuit.

    The enraged industry figure responded strongly after Lilwin publicly accused Mr. Logic of using a “weed toffee.”

    Known for his direct approach, Mr. Logic strongly refuted the claims in an interview with Hit FM’s Andy Dosty on Daybreak Hitz, highlighting the possible damage the accusation could do to his standing in the industry and reputation.

    In the entertainment industry, allegations of substance abuse can be especially damaging. Mr. Logic is committed to using the legal system to dispel these claims. He added that he could be tested in order to get confirmation.

    The artiste manager believes the accusation stems from his questioning of the actor regarding the use of Nigerian actors in his upcoming film, “A country called Ghana.” On February 22, 2024, Mr. Logic said on Daybreak Hitz that he could not understand LilWin’s decision to use Nigerian actors in a film that aimed to showcase Ghanaian culture and patriotism.

    While he acknowledged that collaborating with Nigerian actors might help the film find a larger audience and be featured on a global platform such as Netflix, he expressed concern that the film would deny Ghanaian actors an opportunity to demonstrate their abilities.

    “It’s a good one because of the agenda to get onto Netflix. But to continue doing the same thing for commercial purposes, I don’t think it’s advisable. The Ghanaian movie industry is still under the carpet. So it’s best if he lifts up the industry by lifting up young talents like Fifi Coleman is doing.

    “Why are you making a movie named “A Country Called Ghana” and featuring Nigerians in it? We should put Ghanaian actors and stories first, stories that connect with our people,” he said. “It’s about uplifting our own,” he said.

    Lilwin was not amused by this and has since started making fun of and insulting the well-known figure in the music industry.

    Ghanaian-British singer, RAYE Makes History at BRIT Awards

    Global sensation RAYE achieved a historic feat last night at the BRIT Awards when she won an astounding six awards, setting a record for the most wins in a single year. This was the biggest night in British music history for the independent singer-songwriter.

    She not only became the first female to win Songwriter of the Year, but she also won Best New Artist, Best R&B Act, Album of the Year, Song of the Year (“Escapism”), and Artist of the Year. A medley of songs from her highly regarded debut album, My 21st Century Blues, including hits like “Escapism” and “Ice Cream Man,” was performed by RAYE during the ceremony, setting off a career-defining moment for her. Following that, on April 13 and 20, RAYE will make her Coachella debut.

    RAYE led the charge last night, taking home the title of most nominated artist in a single BRITs year with a record-breaking seven nominations overall. This is a first for any artist since the BRITs began in 1977, surpassing the previous record of six nominations held by Gorillaz (2002), Craig David (2001), and Robbie Williams (1999). With her six award wins tonight, RAYE breaks the record for most wins in a single night at the BRIT Awards, beating the previous record of four set by Blur (1995), Adele (2016), and Harry Styles (2023).

    RAYE said she was “so honored and blown away” to be receiving her first BRIT Award as Songwriter of the Year. “I will treasure this trophy very much,” the London-born musician added. “I am so grateful to be recognized as a songwriter as this is a craft I am so passionate about and have been since I started my journey as a musician, and I’m very grateful to those who voted for me to have this award.”

RAYE performed 130 headline shows, including a thrilling set at Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage, after supporting tours with Lewis Capaldi, Kali Uchis, and SZA. Her momentous performance at Royal Albert Hall, complete with a gospel choir and a 50-piece orchestra, was captured on camera for a once-in-a-lifetime BBC special. Reviewers hailed RAYE as “the most talented artist since Adele and Amy Winehouse” (The Telegraph).

    RAYE was born in Tooting, London, to an English father originally from Yorkshire and a Ghanaian-Swiss mother who works as a mental health worker.
