Sarkodie turns Breastfeeding Ambassador

Entertainment of 2014-08-07

Ace Ghanaian rapper, Michael Owusu Addo,
popularly known in showbiz as Sarkodie, has been
unveiled as the 2014 Ambassador for the Ghana
National Breastfeeding Campaign.
The multi award-winning artiste is to use his fame
to promote the culture of breastfeeding among
nursing mothers across the country.
In his acceptance remarks as the ambassador, the
rapper explained the importance of breastfeeding
to the wellbeing of children and nursing mothers.
He was speaking at the launch of the 2014 World
Breastfeeding Week by the Ghana Health Service
(GHS) on Wednesday in Accra.
According to him, breastfeeding prevents babies
from frequently falling ill and thus saves parents
from spending their scarce financial resources on
medical bills.
“Breastfeeding is very essential, and it is to save
yourself the cost and the stress of going to the
hospital all the time just because your child has
fallen sick because he/she has not taken the right
nutrients which are derived from breast milk,” he
said. He urged young mothers to constantly
breastfeed their babies for at least a period
exceeding six months.
He added; “I will let my followers know about the
importance of breastfeeding exceeding six
months… I will do everything I can to promote the
idea. I will use my social media platforms to
educate the public on the need to breastfeed
babies.”
The ‘Give It to Me’ rapper disclosed that the rate
of breastfeeding among young Ghanaian mothers
was very low.

8 Reasons Why Ronaldo is Better than Messi

Think we’re crazy for proclaiming that Ronaldo
is better? Check out the argument for Messi
being the best!
Ronaldo or Messi. Like Maradona or Pele before
them, it is the argument for the ages when it
comes to modern football fans. Both players
score more goals in one season than most
enjoy in a whole career and comparing them on
this alone can sometimes be a fruitless task.
Getting beyond those initial goal numbers is
the key, and helps to show why Ronaldo, and
not Messi, is the fun packed player that any
team cannot do without. I mean, why would
you want the modern day sensible man’s Pele
when you can have the excitement and
unpredictability of 2014’s Maradona? Exactly.
8. Ronaldo Has More
International Goals
When it comes to Lionel Messi and his national
team, it rarely “works” – the polar opposite of
the kind of impact Ronaldo has had for
Portugal. This is most notably obvious when the
goals column is compared. Messi has hit the
back of the net 37 times in 83 caps and as
you’ll find out, most of these have not been in
games that count for much. Ronaldo, on the
other hand, is one off his half century (49
goals) in 110 caps, and four of his most recent
goals directly influenced his country’s path into
the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

Castro Is Alive, Needless Crying Could Prevent Him From Coming Back To Earth - Marine Agent

Castro is alive and undergoing training in the
underworld , a ‘ Maame- Water ’ or Marine spirit/
agent has claimed .
The renowned Hiplife Musician is reported to
have drowned together with his girlfriend at an
estuary in Ada on Sunday .
But according to the marine agent who spoke to
Okay FM on Monday , if sympathizers and fans
of the music icon , should keep on wailing , it
would automatically shut the spiritual door
which would bring Castro back to live .
Marine spirits are generally referred to as spirits
which have operational base in the waters . They
are spirits thrown down from Heaven (Rev 12 vs
12 ) and (13 vs 1) and made the oceans , seas,
rivers, streams and lakes their abode . They
execute their plans by possessing either a man
or a woman .
Marine Agent Introduces Herself
The marine agent who only disclosed her
identity as Dzifa Avaga, insisted that the
circumstances which led to the demise of the
late musician, was a normal occurrence to
people who could relate to the underworld .
“ As I speak to you, I am a marine spirit; I exist
because I made two people give birth to me .
When I heard (Castro ’ s ) news on air, I wasn ’ t
surprised because the authorities in the sea had
already informed me that they were going to
have a visitor . And that was the same moment I
heard Castro ’ s story on radio .
This made me believe that Castro had gone for
a visit and was not dead as earlier reported, ”
she said .
When To Expect Castro
Pressed forward to disclose the exact date
Castro would return , Dzifa Avaga explained that
no exact date has been fixed for his return . She
however added that it might take months or
years for him to return .
Her only caution was that the needless crying
must cease now since that could affect his
Castro ’ s mood and force him not to return .
“ If you should keep on crying , then he (Castro )
could be annoyed and decide not to return to
earth again , ” she said .
She continued that everyone should expect to
see Castro spotting a new look upon his return .
According to her , he would be wearing dread
locks when he comes back to the land of the
living .

Who Killed Fennec Okyere : Bull Dog ’ s Case Adjourned to June 30 as Prosecutors Beg Court for More Time

So if the Human Rights Court did not rule
that the continuous holding of Bull Dog (real
name Lawrence Nana Asiama Hanson ) in
Police custody was a clear violation of his
Human Rights and goes against the
traditional notion of substantial justice , he
would have been remanded in jail again
today as the prosecutors beg for more
time…huh ?
When BullDog who has been charged with
the murder of Fennec Okyere and
conspiracy to murder appeared at the Accra
Magistrate Court today, the prosecutors
begged the Court for more time to be able
to carry on with investigation—a request the
Court granted , adjourning the case to June ,
30.
It is such actions of the prosecuting body
that have led people to ask , what was the
point in arresting and detaining Bull Dog if
they did not have enough evidence to
present in Court , in relation to the charges
levelled against him …
It looks like ; we should embrace ourselves
for a long ride of ‘ judicial up and down ’ as
the prosecutors seem to be not fully
prepared for the commencement of trial …
Slapping someone with Murder and
Conspiracy to Murder with a possible life
imprisonment is not a joke , it must be
proven beyond reasonable doubt that
indeed the person committed the alleged
crime…
With how the prosecutors have started , it
surely looks like we will soon have the
charges dropped !
