Free rent, 3-month grace period to tenants not lawful – Rent Control PRO
The perception has over the years been a headache for landlords and a bone of contention between them and tenants. Many times, tenants either run to the Rent Control Department or threaten their homeowners with such resolve to make a case to live rent-free three months after expiration of their stay. Public Relations Officer at the Rent Control Department, Emmanuel Hovey Kporsu, has debunked such assertion, intimating that there is no such provision in the rent laws of Ghana. “This notion in the minds of tenants that when you are being evicted, you should be given three months grace period is not in our laws…”He furthered that no landlord owes his or her tenant any grace period, to speak of permitting the tenant to stay for the period on free rent. “So, there’s no free rent, and there’s no grace period,” he posited.

Let's be careful, democracies are fragile things - Kofi Bentil
He explained that no democracy anywhere in the world is too robust to be so threatened as democracy in itself is a fragile thing. and I ask myself, 'There is a generation that does not appreciate what we went through to restore constitutional democracy. There is a generation that does not understand what it means when people's father's were picked from home and didn't return. There is a generation which does not understand how people were tied to stakes and shot. We need to be careful because democracies are fragile things and when we go on these tangents, we give some people a lot of energy to overthrow what we have now," he explained.

Entertainment of Saturday, 14 August 2021Source: mynewsgh.comThe Man of God says he believes in spiritual attacks and the fact that people can take his photos and use them to attack him spiritually through his children hence the decision to cover their faces. He made this known when he spoke in an interview with Kumawood Actor Kwaku Manu. Sonnie Badu said “your children can go through some attacks and you might not know where it is coming from but it will be from the kind of exposure you gave them across the world. Some people post photos of their newborns but the witches in their household will just use the baby’s photo and if the child does not have a strong spirit, they can kill the baby, buy sickness for it.”The Gospel Musician said especially with the work he does with delivering people from evil spirits, it’s imperative that he protects his children from a number of forces hence the reason to cover their faces in family photos.
