I’m single, but during the second lockdown I fell back in touch with my friend’s ex-boyfriend, who I’d always got on very well with. I was sad to lose contact with him after the break-up, but unsurprised as I figured he just wanted to move on with his life. But then he contacted me out of the blue, years later, to see how I was doing. We ended up agreeing that he would visit me for a proper catch-up.
One thing led to another, and we ended up sleeping together. Since then, we’ve been messaging fairly regularly and while it’s very early days, I think we do have feelings for each other. There’s been an indication from both sides that we’d like to meet up again but we haven’t made any definite arrangement. There are other complications that could get in the way of anything serious happening, but my biggest concern is how my friend might react to finding out.
While it’s been years (as far as I know) since they’ve spoken and they’ve definitely both moved on with their lives in major ways, I know her well enough to think she could take it badly. I’m concerned that telling her now, before me and him have even talked about whether we want to take this further, could create unnecessary upset – but not telling her (and then seeing him again) would feel like lying to her. What should I do?
A male community nurse at Amartey CHIPS in Kwahu District, identified as William Otoo, has won the praise of many after he delivered a pregnant woman in labour right in the middle of a road.
On Monday 1st November 2021, a story broke that a young lady referred to the Kwahu Government Hospital had given birth while being transported.
The Member of Parliament for Mpraeso Constituency, Hon. Davis Opoku Ansah, visited the young mother and baby at the hospital and supported them.
He visited them the next day at Amatey to check on the baby and show appreciation to the young nurse.
The MP promised to deliver a tricycle ambulance to support health care delivery in the area. He also appealed to the government to help construct or reshape the Adawso-Nketepa-Amatey-Amanfrom road.
Ghanaian Rising stars, Tidraps, Finno Luu, and others ignited the ‘Dangme Music 2021 Nominations Jams’ when they took to the stage as they produced an electrifying and memorable performance over the weekend.
The hundreds of fans gathered at the Somanya Royal Hotel in the Eastern Region to witness the biggest Nominations Jams outside Greater Accra were taken by surprise with the stage appearance of Tidraps, Finno Luu, Zatochi and many others.
Reigning Artist of the Year, Tidraps has made a surprise appearance at the event demonstrated why he is considered one of Ghana’s best performers when he thrilled fans with back to back hits.
Dangme Music Awards 2021 nominee, Finno Luu didn’t disappoint on stage having showcased his lyrical vibes with the likes of Zatochi, Ithrone, Bra Jay, also putting up a good show.
The event hosted by iShoot Media witnessed an amazing display of Ga-Dangme arts and culture which preceded the musical show with visitors from all over the country.
Social media users have been left confused after a look-alike of Ghanaian Hip Hop Musician, Samuel Adu Frimpong popularly known as Medikal surfaced online with some photographs which almost got fans to believe it was MDK himself.
A close view of him depicts the true replica of the “Omo Ada” Hitmaker.
In a photo sighted by Newsfile360.com, the MDK look alike was spotted in a black Hoodie and a black face mask.
The look-alike who goes by the name B’Doe also happens to be a huge fan of Medikal.
Per our findings, B’’Doe is a video director and Fashion Icon.
B’Doe is the exact photocopy of the “Risky” hitmaker. He has the same hairstyle and somehow portrays a similar voice.
Well, one might think B’Doe admires Medikal so much to the extent of copying his looks but in this case, B’Doe is in with his own style and brand.
As a reminder, Reggae/Dancehall artiste, Shatta Wale and industry mate, Medikal, have been granted a ¢100,000 bail each.
The duo reappeared before an Accra Circuit Court on Tuesday, October 26, to continue their respective legal battles.
Comedian Waris latest photo with mom has tugged on everybody’s heartstrings.
One hard-working mom’s reaction to the surprise of a lifetime will give you all the feels.
Comedian Waris ‘Seriously Unserious’ show receives huge patronage.
A Ghanaian woman who worked as a security guard and raised her children as a single mom got the surprise of her life when she saw her son cracking ribs of his fans on stage at the ‘Seriously Unserious’ show over the weekend.
It was a full house as hundreds thronged the Snap Cinemas, Accra, Saturday to watch Comedian Waris as a headliner of a show for the first time, six years after venturing into standup comedy.
Considering that the event was widely publicized with a tall list of performers which included colleagues DKB, OB Amponsah, Lekzy Decomic, Alo Wess and MJ the Comedian, patrons were in anticipation of a great night.
Comedian Waris mounted the stage amid resounding cheers from the audience whose desire to watch the man of the night, had at this point, reached a crescendo.
His entry, although not the most epic and not the most dramatic, got off well when Black Sherif’s ‘Second Sermon’ played in the background. This song was relevant to that entry because it also sums up Comedian Waris’ life experiences in Accra, having endured struggles ranging from economic quandary to disappointments.
For close to an hour, Comedian Waris entertained patrons with a variety of content. His rib-cracking script captured the standard of living in the country, complex relationships between individuals and groups, soccer as well as social deviance.
Comedian Waris used the opportunity to encourage persons who may be swamped with challenges to not lose faith but keep their hopes alive for a change in the narrative.
Recently, a photograph was posted on Twitter that has tugged on everybody’s heartstrings. It was shared by the “Professional idiot” Comedian Waris, who is known for sharing positive and wholesome content on social media.

Google will move AdSense from a second-price auction model to a first-price auction by the end of 2021, the company announced Thursday.
There is no action for advertisers or publishers to take and these changes will occur automatically.
Why is AdSense moving to a first-price auction?
On display ad selling platforms, a first-price auction simplifies the buying experience for advertisers because the final price reflects the winner’s bid. Google Ad Manager and AdMob have already moved to a first price auction, and by streamlining the auction model across AdSense, Ad Manager, and AdMob, advertisers benefit from a consistent process across Google’s ad selling platforms. This helps to grow advertiser spending confidence across the display advertising ecosystem – and an increase in spending confidence over time will benefit publishers.
Why is AdSense making this change now?
In the early days of online display advertising, ad space was typically sold to advertisers in a second-price auction, where the final price paid by the winner was determined by the amount of the second-highest bid. Over time, many ad selling platforms in the display advertising ecosystem, including Ad Manager, AdMob, and many third-party ad exchanges, switched their auctions to first-price.
In a first-price auction, the final price reflects the winning bid. In the coming months, AdSense will move to a first-price auction. This will help advertisers by simplifying how they buy online ads and make it easier for them to buy your ad space sold on AdSense.
Which AdSense products are affected?
The move to a first-price auction only affects the following AdSense products:
AdSense for Content
AdSense for Video
AdSense for Games
This move does not affect:
AdSense for Search
AdSense for Shopping
Do I need to take any action?
No. You do not need to do anything, these changes will update automatically.
Will my AdSense earnings be impacted?
Due to the dynamic auction environment, we cannot predict how specific AdSense publishers will be impacted. But, on average we expect the impact to AdSense publishers’ earnings overall from the move to a first-price auction to be neutral. When Ad Manager moved to a first-price auction, there was a neutral to slightly positive impact to publisher earnings on average.
A 19-member Council for Ho Technical University has been inaugurated on 1st October, 2021, at the Ministry of Education in Accra to replace the old Council whose tenure expired in May, 2021.
The Minister of Education, Hon. Dr. Yaw Adu Twum, swearing in the Professor, James Flolu- led Governing Council, charged them to work in the interest of the University in spite of challenges to realise the mandate given to the University.
He added that once the Council is consumed by the collective interest, no obstacle can supercede the collective good; and that will bring positive impact not only to Ho Technical University but to the country as a whole.
Call to Excellence & USP
The Hon. Minister in commending the work of university, stressed on the need for the university to rise above impediments and concentrate on finding ways to promote the Unique Selling Advantage of the university so as to empower the young ones to develop interest in skilled and competency based training, regardless of their grade or programme of study in the second cycle school.
He mentioned that the disturbing tradition in the education sector of making life difficult for the youth needs to halt stating that “We need to look beyond the present academic weaknesses of students and identify their strength to help them become the best versions of themselves by opening the flood gates of creativity”.
The Hon. Minister illustrated how a visual art student could have the potential of becoming one of the best professionals in the area of Engineering as “both disciplines apply creativity and imaginations in their field of work”.
In concluding his address Hon. Dr. Adu Twum encouraged the council to call on him when they are faced with any challenge that will impede the realisation of the mandate given the university “
Chairman’s Response
On behalf of council members, the Chairman, Prof. Emmanuel James Flolu expressed his gratitude to the Hon. Minister for the recognition given and confidence reposed in them to govern the helm of affairs of such a great institution . He assured the Minister that the council shall endeavour to work and support the mandate to ensure the realisation of applied knowledge in TVET in Ghana and the globe to the highest level possible.
Representing government on the Council are Madam Esther H. Edjeani, Mrs. Levin Baah-Nuakoh, and Mr. Hector A. Sam-Tagoe.
New members serving on the Council are Madam Dinah Adiko and Mrs. Agnes Balasu.
