Ghanaiana musician-Mzbel is rocking it fab in those ripped jeans—and she looks so beautiful. Just that, it would have been better without that LV belt making that bold statement through her blazer.
It makes her come off a little tacky!
Deloris Frimpong Manso (Delay) is not also looking bad in a photo she recently shared—we love the pair of red shoes she wore.
Actor-John Dumelo has kept it all black—perhaps, inspired by Fred Nuamah. He looks tall and thick!

Ghana: An Interesting Country that Cannot Simply Locate the Right Institution to Apologize to Its Citizens for An Error-Ridden National Brochure

Ghana is an interesting country—this time, for two apparent reasons; a national Independence Day brochure was ruined by deplorable and somewhat flagrant mistakes which insult the many intellectuals in government and in the country.
Secondly, perhaps pitifully, we cannot seem to locate or name the person or institution that produced this preposterous piece of brochure—let alone to reprimand those who were in charged and have turned Ghana into a global laughing stock.
After the error-ridden brochure became an item of social media conversation and mockery, a showcase of the hovering incompetence of the incumbent government, an apology was issued from a certain government quarters which blamed the Information Service Department for the gross mistakes in the brochure.
Even that letter of apology had its own mistake—a simple double checking from the source would have exposed this.

Considering her age and the tactics this woman is said to have used in an attempt to smuggle 3 kilos of heroin into New York, she must have been out of touch with the ease of detecting her mischief by authorities.
And the fact that she blamed her son for coercing her into bringing the drug into United States adds another layer of stupidity to her full basket.
How can a Ghanaian son reasonable compel his grown up mother to do anything she does not want to do?
On Friday, New York City prosecutors sentenced a 64-year-old Ghanaian woman to more than two years in prison  for stuffing heroin inside dried fish and trying to smuggle the drug-filled treats into the United States.

Comedian DKB has a frozen career, perhaps, even a non-existing one—so it’s perfectly clear why he would want to jump onto the trending wave of Abraham Attah to be in the news.
It’s been days of Abraham Attah and when all seem to be settling, DKB has aired his gratuitously offensive opinion on the young actor—saying, Abraham dresses like a phone repairer.
It’s safe that he dresses decent, even if DKB thinks that it resembles that of a phone repairer—at least, he is not wearing fake designers as DKB and a bunch of Ghanaian Celebrities allegedly do.
