"Blame Afriyie Ankrah For Brazil Fiasco", Kenpong

Chairman of the Kenpong Group of Companies, Mr Kennedy Agyapong

The Chairman of the Kenpong Group of Companies, Mr Kennedy Agyapong, has accused the former Youth and Sports Minister, Mr Elvis Afriyie Ankrah, of personally arrogating to himself some of the organisational activities relating to the sponsorship of supporters to the Brazil World Cup.

This, he said, were the reasons for the poor organisation for the supporters in Brazil.

He said even though government had asked Kenpong Travel and Tours, for instance, to transport 270 passengers to Brazil and arrange their accommodation and internal travel in Brazil, that was taken away from the company at the eleventh hour.

Contributing to discussions on the fall out of Ghana’s participation at the World Cup on Peace FM Monday morning, Mr Agyapong said Kenpong was told at the last minute to only concentrate on just transporting the 270 passengers to Brazil.

After nearly four hours of prizes, performances and the occasional bleeped expletive, the 2014 BET Awards came to a close. When it was all over, Pharrell Williams had two trophies, as did newcomer August Alsina, and Lil Wayne dropped the mike, apparently breaking it.

Here's a look at some of the memorable moments that emerged from Sunday night's ceremony, broadcast live from the Nokia Theatre on BET:

Accepting her fifth consecutive award for female hip-hop artist, Nicki Minaj gave a rambling speech in which she said she was recently near death.

Nicki Minaj told the crowd at the BET Awards that she was close to death recently -- an experience that has helped her be herself.

The rapper rambled onstage when accepting her fifth consecutive win for best female hip-hop artist, where she thanked Lil Wayne for his support, talked about writing her own lyrics and about getting the credit she deserves in the industry.

"The other day, literally I didn't tell anybody this, I really thought I was about to die. Like, I was saying my prayers to die. And I didn't even want to call the ambulance because I thought, `Well if I call the ambulance, it's going to be on TMZ,"' she said, as some of the audience laughed.

"And I would rather sit there and die," she added, looking to the crowd. "And it made me realize I don't care what anybody got to say. I'm going to do me."

American movie industry, Hollywood, is to make a movie based on the bizarre transfer of three million dollars meant for the Black Stars from Ghana to Brazil via a chartered flight.

The Guardian reported Monday that the screenplay, to be written by Darryl Wharton-Rigby, will centre on a courier tasked with bringing $3m (£1.76m) across the Atlantic to Brazil in an effort to stop the Ghanaian football team quitting the competition in protest at lack of pay.

It is based on a real-life impasse which affected the west African team prior to their exit at the group stage last week, though fictional elements will be incorporated to further spice up the proposed movie, the report stated.

Dr. James Akwasi Appiah

Ghana coach, Kwesi Appiah says he didn’t resort to using any vulgar language on Kevin-Prince Boateng.

The Schalke 04 midfielder was sent out of camp last Thursday on the grounds of using vulgar words aimed at the coach.

Boateng has since the incident pontificated widely that he never disrespected the coach. He claimed Appiah rather told him f*** off when he confronted him after a training ground bust-up.

Kwesi Appiah has also denied the claims by Boateng.

Ghanaian midfielder Sulley Muntari has officially maintained that he has no regret for his action which led to his indefinite suspension from camp last Wednesday.

According to the AC Milan player, he is not worried over his cantankerous attitude which triggered an alleged slapping of Moses Parker, a team official in the face – and threatening other members of the coaching staff with a broken bottle.

The player made these bizarre remarks when he wrote on his Instagram wall saying "From the bottom of my heart I don't give a f@#k".

Citi Business News has gathered that government has directed the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) to suspend the implementation of the 17.5 percent Value Added Tax (VAT) charges on non-core financial services.

Industry, the Private Enterprise Federation (PEF) and unionized workers have been pressurizing government to withdraw the 17.5 per cent VAT.

According to them, the move will further cripple their businesses which are already reeling under the pressures of power interruption and unfavourable business environment.

Jesus would have been a supporter of gay marriage, Sir Elton John has claimed.

The musician, who plans to marry his civil partner David Furnish next year in a "very quiet" ceremony, said that rules preventing gay clergy from marrying and requiring Catholic priests to be celibate were "old and stupid things".

He told Sky News's Murnaghan programme: "The church hierarchy, the traditionalists, might be up in arms about it but times have changed.

"If Jesus Christ was alive today, I cannot see him, as the Christian person that he was and the great person that he was, saying this could not happen.

Kevin Prince Boateng has ripped into the entire Black Stars World Cup campaign in Brazil.

The Schalke man minces no words as he speaks to the big German media house, Bild.

Of interest is his flat denial of insulting Kwesi Appiah, the coach.

“I am very, very disappointed. It just wasn’t a good time. The nightmare lasted from the first day of the preparations until the very end,” he begins.

“I would never have thought that the preparations and the World Cup itself could be so badly organized. The hotels, the flights – everything was amateurish.”

Greece Players Turn Down World Cup Bonus

You might not like their style of play, but this would appear to be another reason to like Greece ahead of their World Cup last 16 clash against Costa Rica.

This World Cup has been dogged with bonus rows. First with Cameroon, even before they set off to Brazil.

And, most famously last week with Ghana where 3 million dollars had to be shipped out to Brazil ahead of their final game against Portugal.

Now, the Greece team have written to their prime minister Antonis Samaras and told him they are not interested in their World Cup bonus but simply want the money to be put towards a sports centre for the national team.

Davido @ the BETAwards

Davido has claimed the award for Best International Act: African category at the 2014 BET Awards.
The Aye singer, who was nominated alongside African Acts like our very own VGMAs Multiple award winner Sarkodie, Nigeria's songtress Tiwa Savage and South Africa's multiple award winning Group Mafikizolo, was handed the award at a pre-event taping before the ceremony holds tonight.

Kwasi Appiah Fails, As Ghana Kicked Out Of World Cup

The Black Stars of Ghana are out of Brazil 2014 following a 1-2 defeat to Portugal in final Group G game in Brasilia.

A Christiano Ronaldo late goal ended any hopes of a third straight knockout round qualification for the Black Stars.

Gyan equalised with a header late on in the second half after John Boye's bad clearance ended up in his own net in the first.

Even though USA were piped by group winners Germany in the group's other game, the two still qualify into the knockout stage of the competition.

Luis Suarez

The Uruguay striker was handed a nine-game international ban and a four-month suspension from "any football-related activity" by Fifa following his bite on Giorgio Chiellini
Liverpool striker Luis Suarez will miss the first half of his side's Champions League group-stage campaign as well as key domestic fixtures against Manchester City and Everton after FIFA handed him a four-month suspension from "any football related activity" for biting Italy's Giorgio Chiellini.

Suarez will miss the rest of the Uruguay's World Cup campaign - England's conquerors are due to face fellow South Americans Colombia in the last 16 - as well as next summer's Copa America and a significant portion of the upcoming Premier League season.

Kelvin Prince Boateng

Ghana player Kevin Prince Boateng has insisted that he did not, as is being reported, insult coach Kwesi Appiah.

The player who has been suspended indefinitely by the GFA following his “vulgar verbal insults targeted at coach Kwesi Appiah during the team’s training session in Maceio this week.”, was reported to have exchanged angry words with coach Kwesi Appiah.

The player has, however, refuted the claims and stated that he had not verbally abused the coach in any way.

In an interview with German newspaper Sport Bild, Boateng gave his version of events.

Black Stars midfielders, Kevin-Prince Boateng and Sulley Muntari have been sacked from the team camp in Brazil.
Citi Sports editor Gary Al-Smith who is in Brazil reports the two have been thrown out for various acts of insubordination in the last few days.
It is unclear how the sacking of the two will impact on the rest of the team who will be playing a major game on Thursday. The team had earlier threatened to boycott the Ghana-Portugal match if their appearance fees were not paid on time.

The President has directed the Finance Minister, Seth Tekper to release $60 million to the Bulk Oil Distribution Companies (BDCs) to ensure there is enough fuel in the system.

This is according to the Information and Media Relations Minister, Mahama Ayariga.

There is fuel shortage in some cities across the country, including Accra, Tema, Cape Coast and Kumasi.

Hundreds of vehicles have queued at various filling stations hoping to fill their fuel tanks.

Both motorists and passengers are complaining bitterly about the situation because according to them, it is hindering their movements and making them unproductive.

The Public Utilities and Regulatory Commission has increased water and electricity tariffs for the third quarter of the year.

The move, which according to the Commission was in line with the automatic adjustment formula, will see a 12 per cent increase in electricity and 6.1 per cent in water for the next quarter beginning July 2014.

The PURC had initially proposed a 31 per cent increase in electricity and 14 per cent in water at the management level but the commissioners after meeting Wednesday morning on the proposal decided to review it downward same as what was proposed for the second quarter.

Apparently, the promise of the Ghana Football Association to pay the players, even on Wednesday, the award for qualifying for the World Cup was fulfilled. Around 20h, a delegation Ghana with the late money landed in Brazil, where the team faces Portugal on Thursday. With police escort, responsible for the transport of values went straight to the hotel where the team is staying pathway was shown during the National Journal, TV Globo (see the video). According to Agence France Press, the award is around $ 3 million (approximately U.S. $ 6.7 million).

Prophet Predicts Black Stars’ Qualification To The Semi Finals [+Videos]

Stephen Adom Kyei-Duah

A Kumasi-based prophet, Stephen Adom Kyei-Duah, says the Black Stars of Ghana will qualify from their difficult Group G for the Round of 16 at the ongoing World Cup in Brazil.

His expectation follows a startling prophecy he delivered at a church service at his Believers Worship Centre at Kenyasi in Kumasi as far back as December 31, 2013 in which he said God had revealed to him that the Black Stars were going all the way to the semi-finals.
Ghana has one point from two matches in the tournament and will play Portugal in a crucial Group G match Thursday June 26.

In an interview with the Daily Graphic, Prophet Kyei-Duah affirmed his prophecy that God had revealed to him that this year’s World Cup would be the first time an African country was going to reach the semi-finals.
“One loss, one draw, one win. Ghana will go to the next stage of the tournament with four points. Ghanaians have to relax; we’ll get to the semi-finals,” he said.

FIFA has confirmed it will investigate the clash between the Liverpool striker and Italy's Giorgio Chiellini
Luis Suarez faces a worldwide ban of up to TWO YEARS for his latest biting incident at the World Cup.

The Uruguay striker clashed with Italian defender Giorgio Chiellini during their crucial group match in Brazil.
Footage appears to show the Liverpool player sinking his teeth into his opponent as they tussled in the box.
FIFA has announced it will investigate the incident with the Liverpool striker likely to face a lengthy ban if found guilty.
A FIFA spokesperson told Press Association Sport: "We are awaiting the official match reports and will gather all the necessary elements in order to evaluate the matter."

#Shocker: Pupils Swim To School In Shama District[+Photos]

Dorkokope is a farming community near Daboase junction in the Shama District of the Western Region.
The torrential rains there have flooded all routes leading to the Borkor Kopkope Catholic Primary School.

The only option for eager and determined pupils seeking to attain at least basic education is to swim their way through the floods to school. The fortunate ones would have to cram into about a four-foot-wide canoe to cross the flooded areas.

FIFA has promised its disciplinary committee will investigate photographs that show several German fans attended their team’s match against Ghana wearing black make-up.
Pictures circulated on social media of smiling Germany fans with blacked up faces wearing T-shirts on which they had felt tipped the names of their opponents. A Fifa spokeswoman said that any evidence of discrimination would be considered by its disciplinary committee under what she called its zero tolerance rules.
“We always take any evidence or submissions to our disciplinary committee. It is the disciplinary committee that will meet,” she said. “If they see any grounds they will open proceedings. Then it is up to the disciplinary commission to take the decision.”

Captain Planet Marries Vodafone Executive Uche Ofodile

Captain Planet and Uche Ofodile

Somewhere in the Capital, Accra, 4×4 member, Captain Planet, took his fiancée of some years, Uche Ofodile, to the altar. And it was grand, according to enewsgh.com.

They also tell us the ceremony was somewhat simple and elegant at the same time. They were all over each other the entire duration of the ceremony.

The vows were neatly done, too, we hear.

They’ve been dating for some time now, in what became a talk of town largely due to her corporate status, and his mainstream music/show business relevance.

He becomes the second member of the longest-surviving hiplife group in Ghana.

Few hours after the ceremony, 4x4 took to twitter and congratulated their Brother "Captain Planet" and wife "Uche Ofodile" for such a great union. "Congrats to our brother captain planet n his wife uche ofodile may God bless this union forever--its written "

Restraining Order On Ghana Gas Lifted

The restraining order imposed on the Ghana National Gas Company (Ghana Gas) preventing it from continuing work on the Atuabo gas infrastructure project has been lifted, paving way for the company to continue work.

The injunction was lifted by the Sekondi High Court presided by Mr Justice Kofi Akrowia yesterday after the Ghana Gas company filed an application for a variation of the court’s earlier ruling issued last week Monday, June 9, 2014. Per the new ruling yesterday, the companies which were initially restrained from continuing work on the Atuabo land have been given the green light to go ahead with construction activities while the case takes its normal course in court. The companies include SINOPEC, the Chinese construction firm working on the Atuabo Gas Processing Plant, Quantum Terminals Limited (QTL) and the Ghana Oil Limited (GOIL). One individual, Ernest Nunoo, owner of Ernest Seafront Hotel, was also sued in the case.

The immediate-past National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Jake Otanka Obetsebi-Lamptey is worried about the sudden flurry of people who want to lead the party in the 2016 elections, saying the “party is walking on tight rope” due to their activities.

“What I am concerned about is that the people of Ghana are looking to the NPP to rescue them from all the terrible things that are happening. However, the NPP is now also showing that it does not recognize that the nation is facing a crisis. We are much more concerned about our own petty grievances and personal agendas instead of the national agenda.”

Sarkodie, and a number of African acts have been announced as performers for BET’s L.A experience event, happening from June 27-29. The event, a pre music concert to the main awards show will feature some of the biggest names in music from around the world. Nigeria’s Tiwa Savage, and Ice Prince as well as South Africa’s Mafikizolo will also perform as part of the “Music Around the Globe” presentation during the weekend of June 27-29.

There is bound to be a massive shake-up in the Black Stars set-up for tomorrow’s crucial game in Fortaleza, take it or leave it.
Ghana's losing line-up and tactical formation in Monday’s group opener against USA are bound to be shuffled as the Stars look to beat fearsome Germany to rekindle hopes in Brazil.
At least, that is the signal so far picked up from the team's training in Maceio, even though, as usual, Coach Kwasi Appiah is keeping his plans close to his chest.

But sources close to the technical team, and from observations at the training, believe that the starting line-up against the Germans will see Adam Kwarasey in goal, with Samuel Inkoom (or Daniel Opare again) and Harrison Afful at the full backs or lateral defence.

Str8FromDaKitchen: Missile Riddim Mixes ft @Samini_Dagaati, @CastroDestroyer, @ELRepGH @stonebwoyb, ... @onua_zionfelix

#WorldCup #Brazil2014: Black Stars Arrive In Natal

The Black Stars have touched down in Natal ahead of their 2014 World Cup group G opening encounter against USA at the Estadio das Dunas on Monday night.

Coach Kwesi Appiah and his entourage arrived in rain-soaked coastal resort, Natal via the Augusto Severo International Airport after an over four-hour flight from their base in Maceio. Natal has over the past two days seen some heavy downpour.

The Black Stars are scheduled to have a feel of the match venue - Estadio das Dunas with training set for 9pm which will be preceded by a mandatory 30-minute pre-match presser with the media at the same venue. Head coach Kwesi Appiah and captain Asamoah Gyan will be in attendance.

Oforikrom Member of Parliament, Elisabeth Agyemang, says she will lead female supporters of the main opposition New Patriotic Party, NPP, in the Ashanti region on a naked demonstration in the coming days if the Government fails to address their grievances.

“We are waiting for a while; if we don’t see anything, the women in the Ashanti region, maybe we’ll naked ourselves and walk about the streets for the government to come and clothe us,” Elisabeth Agyemang threatened in an interview with XYZ News on the sidelines of the party’s “ya y3 den” demonstration in the Ashanti region.

“Sometimes you have to do something to achieve what you want,” she added. The wife and mother said she will ask permission from her husband if need be before leading such a demonstration.

John Dumelo, one of Ghana’s ambassadors for the Brazil 2014 World Cup , has revealed that so far, he and his colleague ambassadors have solicited for over $ 2million. He was speaking to Andy Dosty on Hitz FM about how much the ambassadors have been able to raise. He answered, “I can’t give you the actual figure because I don’t readily have all the documents in my hands but I can tell you that we have solicited well over $ 2million dollars”

John went further to reveal that their ambassadorial work is purely voluntary – they received no pay. “On the letter of appointment, it was indicated that it’s a voluntary work. There was no pay in it”

Ghana’s opening 2014 World Cup clash against USA on Monday is in danger of being called off after heavy rains ravaged the north-eastern Brazilian city of Natal where the match will be played.

The heavy rains led to flooded streets, a small landslide, and the evacuation of at least 50 homes and one apartment building Saturday evening.

The rains began on Friday and were expected to continue on Sunday when the Black Stars arrive for the match but it is doubtful if the Arena das Dunas Stadium would be able to host the match if the heavy rains continue.

The USA team arrived in Natal on Saturday afternoon before the Americans open World Cup play Monday evening.

There were no victims registered as of Saturday evening, according to Christiano Couceiro, a spokesman for the fire department.

Neymar and Oscar Star As Brazil Survive Early Own Goal In World Cup 2014 Opener [Hilights+]

This was a World Cup in just one game with brilliance, calamity and controversy. And, with it, Brazil had the victory they so desperately craved and could not possibly have dealt with being deprived; the tournament exploded into life.

They have a star also, the star they wanted, the star they cherish, with two goals from Neymar.

There was an own goal, a storm of emotion, and there was a bad taste as the Japanese referee, Yuichi Nishimura, awarded the penalty that should never have been given but which provided Brazil with their release.

In such a proud occasion that was a shameful moment even if Oscar gilded the occasion with a superb, late third goal – toe-poking from outside the area.

For Luiz Felipe Scolari, the Brazil coach, his team, his nation is underway. They will have to improve but already this World Cup is set to be one to remember as everyone prayed it would be beyond the protests and the vastness.

Brand new on from Guru and he titles this one Keep Walking. He talks much about his upbringing and his native town which is so precious to him. New one from the Alkayeda hitmaker.

8 Missing After Fishing Boat Sinks In Elmina

Eight members of a fishing crew are reported missing after their boat sunk within the Elmina-Cape Coast waters at dawn on Tuesday.

The eight were part of a twenty-member team travelling from Sekondi to Tema for maintenance of the fishing boat when violent waves tossed the vessel around and sunk it.

All twenty were knocked off the boat by the violent waves, but twelve were rescued subsequently.

The Ghana Navy has dispatched fast rescue boats to search for the missing eight fishermen.

Nicki Minaj’s new video for her Pills & Potions – her first single off her upcoming Pink Print album has generated a lot of excitement among her fans…and pretty much everyone else. The femcee showcased her new toned down look in the video as she stars alongside rapper The Game in the simple but surreal clip. Sporting black hair as opposed to her usual bright, outrageous wigs, Nicki puts her voluptuous body on display in a way that comes out as nice and nothing close to trashy.
She also has a buff and shirtless The Game (rapper) which will sit well with her teeming female audience.

If it's something like "I have herpes," you tell the person even before you become intimate. When you're alone together, and in a nonsexual moment—though preferably not when you're driving—you say something like "I enjoy being with you, and I have the feeling that this has the makings of a relationship. But before we go any further, there's something I need to tell you, although I'm scared it might affect the way you feel about me." But let's face it, a lot of partners hear herpes and they're out the door.

Doctors at the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital are working round the clock to save the life of a three-year-old girl who was brutally defiled by a 25-year-old galamsey operator at Daboase in the Western Region.

As a result of the attack, the girl has already undergone three major surgeries to repair the severe damage caused to her sexual organ.

According to the Head of the Child Protection Centre of the Health Department of Korle-Bu, Dr Ebenezer Badoe, the victim’s sex organ was completely destroyed, making it impossible for her to pass stool or urine the normal way.

However, the suspect, Eric Duku had been dealt with by the law. The suspect has been jailed 25 years with hard labour.

Suspected Boko Haram sect have invaded two villages in Borno, killing at least five people and carting away food items as well as livestocks.

Residents said some armed men believed to be Boko Haram stormed Tohya and Wurojene villages near Chibok, where over 200 schoolgirls were abducted almost two months ago. The attackers opened fire on the villagers as soon as they arrived at about 7pm on Monday, killing at least five people, a resident of Chibok who did not want his name mentioned in print told our Correspondent on phone..

“The attackers fired at the people and many residents fled into the bush. There was confusion everywhere as the attackers set fire on houses. They continue the attack for about two hours. They carted away foodstuffs, bags of grains and chicken belonging to our poor people,” he said.

The Electricity Company of Ghana says it will halt the ongoing load-shedding exercise in order to allow football lovers to enjoy the 2014 FIFA World Cup which begins Thursday.

Many power consumers have been nursing concerns that they will miss some of the action during the world's biggest football tournament in Brazil from June 12 to July 13.

But ECG's Head of Public Relations William Boateng, speaking to B&FT in an interview, said it has reached an agreement with other power stakeholders to ensure stable supply during the period of the tournament.

"The ECG is going the extra mile to ensure that our consumers are not denied this football event despite the fact that we are in dire straits. As long as a match is going on, we will keep the lights on; especially when Ghana is playing," he said.

Award winning Nigerian artiste, D'banj has signed controversial Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh onto his record label.
D'banj made the announcement via photo sharing site Instagram Tuesday that Tonto, who apart from acting is also into music, is now part of the DB Records family.

Over the past few years, Tonto has made frantic attempts to gain grounds in the Nigerian music scene just like she has done in movies.

Last year alone, she released several singles including, 'Carriage', 'Jeje', 'Crazically', 'Get High', 'Itz Ova', 'Sheba', and 'Hi' in a bid to cement herself as a force to reckon with when it comes to music.

The suspected prostitutes in Police custody

The 33 suspected commercial sex workers, including two men, who were arrested by the Cantonments police in Accra for allegedly engaging in prostitution, have been convicted by an Accra magistrate court.

The suspects were fined an amount of GH¢720 each and are supposed to sign a bond to be of good t behaviour for six months.

Failure to pay the fine, they would serve six months in prison in hard labour.

If any of them defaults regarding the bond and continues with the trade, that person will be sentenced to one year imprisonment term, according to the court.

Aderonke Apata

A UK-based Nigerian Lesbian and asylum-seeker, Aderonke Apata, says she’s ready to send a sextape of her and her partner to prove she’s a lesbian. She claims she would be killed if she returns to Nigeria.

According to IndependentUK, Aderonke feels she has tried everything to persuade the Home Office that she’s gay. She’d sent letters from former girlfriends and supporting statements from friends but since none of them seem to be acceptable, she feels there’s only one way of providing a judge with irrefutable evidence that she’s gay and that’s by sending a video of herself and her partner in the act.
