According to Mr Yeboah, his wife successfully underwent surgery early in the morning on January 4, 2021. “On my way going to the hospital, I had a call from the Ghana Ambulance Service alerting me to meet them at a particular junction." The bereaved husband said the argument with the Ambulance team continued for a while until the medical team at the Fijai Holy Child Hospital came up with the amount being demanded. “I was confused at first, but the moment we got to the Cape Coast Hospital, my wife had died,” he added. According to the bereaved husband, the delay over the GH¢600 led to the death of his wife.

Akufo-Addo knows I am NDC but he has given me an astro turf - Omanhene of Agogo
“President Akufo-Addo knows that I am NDC but he has given me an astro turf. He, however, monitored the commencement and the progress of the project and was “stunned” to realize that indeed the astro turf was not mere empty rhetoric. The Omanhene visited the astro turf recently to watch one of the matches of the Agogo X’mas gala with about 40 teams playing in the gala. The ZoDF has completed the construction of a community sports and recreational centre (astro turf) at Agogo Zongo and provided immense opportunity for the teeming youth of Agogo Zongo and its environs to harness their potential. Nana Akuoku Sarpong served as Minister for Health, Minister for Internal Affairs and Minister for Chieftaincy Affairs under the PNDC/NDC administration.

Dampare is working, prophesy if you are a man – Kofi Oduro mocks
He dared any prophet to issue a prophecy contrary to the directive of the police insisting that such a move will only land them in jail. “They are afraid of the police station, Dampare was busy checking security at Lapaz (on 31st night) and people were crying that he is stopping them from prophesying. “If you are a man prophesy, talk nonsense and when you are grabbed and sent to Tesano or Accra command; woe betides you if you are remanded into prison. You will be abused sexually and you will come back with your anal area sored,” he stated amid laughter during a church service.

Efforts being made to steal Kyerematen's golden key in Umuofia - Nigel Gaisie
General News of Sunday, 2 January 2022Source: www.ghanaweb.comThe founder and leader of Prophetic Hill Chapel, Prophet Nigel Gaisie has sent a cryptic message to the New Patriotic flagbearer hopeful, Alan Kyerematen, relative to some efforts to thwart his ambitions. With a police directive against prophecies that may cause “fear and panic,” Prophet Nigel adopted an evasive strategy to deliver his New Year’s Eve prophecies about Ghana without directly referring to the country. “God took my spirit to Umuofia, in a part of Umuofia I saw an entity and on the forehead of the entity, I saw Kyerematen. And the Lord said look at that, and I saw; I saw an effort being made to take a golden key that belongs to him. On the key, I saw that there were colours on the golden key but predominantly I saw something like blue.

“Many years on, if you look at the events we currently find our country in, a lot of people, especially our young people, are losing faith in our democracy and we can’t let this happen. John Dramani Mahama was addressing a gathering at the 40th anniversary celebration of the 31st December Revolution in Accra when he made these comments.
