Ashaiman: I’m devastated by my son’s death – Mother of a fallen soldier

The mother of the 22-year-old military officer whose alleged murder sparked military brutality in Ashaiman says her son’s death has devastated her.
Afia Kyerah claims she had no idea her son was visiting Ashaiman while on sick leave from his base in Sunyani, Bono Region.
On Tuesday, March 7, the military brutalised residents of Ashaiman following the death of Sheriff Imoro.
Afia Kyerah told journalists that justice should be served.
“Sherrif didn’t have any friends, he was always with me, some neighbours were always teasing me for turning him into a mummy’s boy. I had no idea he was coming to Ashaiman, I had no idea he will die like this, his death is so painful, I’m sad and devastated,” the mother said.
On Saturday morning, a 22-year-old soldier with the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) band in Sunyani, Bono Region, was reportedly stabbed to death by unknown attackers.
The soldier was said to be on his way back from his girlfriend’s house in Taifa to his home in Zongo-Laka, Ashaiman when the unfortunate incident occurred.
Following the alleged murder of a military officer, military personnel stormed Ashaiman on Tuesday, March 7, and brutalised anyone they came across.

Many Ghanaians, including award-winning artiste Stonebwoy, have expressed their outrage over the events in Ashaiman.

Menzgold: NAM1 enters a not guilty plea to allegations of money laundering, fraud, and other offences

Nana Appiah Mensah, the former CEO of Menzgold, also known as NAM 1, has pleaded not guilty to all 39 charges of wrongdoing.
Nana Appiah Mensah, widely known as NAM 1, was charged with 39 counts of crimes, including money laundering abetment, deceiving by false pretences, carrying out deposit-taking without the required licence, unlawful deposit-taking, and money laundering.
This is a decrease from the 61 counts originally filed against him.
In 2019, the Attorney General launched an inquiry on NAM 1, accusing him of scamming hundreds of clients out of millions of Ghana cedis through his gold dealership enterprise.
The case was adjourned numerous times until new charges were brought on August 30, 2023.
Mr Appiah Mensah stated plans to unfreeze locked up cash of Menzgold clients in exchange for 650 for verification.
Following that, he altered his intention to force former clients to obtain a verification access card in order to authenticate transactions and confirm claims, despite substantial public and consumer outcry.

Limited Voter Registration: Two people detained for attempting to register twice

Two people were detained in Asokore Mampong Municipality for allegedly attempting to double register in the current Limited Voters’ Registration Exercise.
According to Municipal EC official Angela Afriyie Osei, the two suspects were apprehended after being validated as people existing in the Electoral Commission’s database.
As a challenge to the procedure, Madam Angela Afriyie mentions duplicate registration and efforts to register minors.
“The challenge we have been facing is about the double registration. At times when applicants come and we interrogate them, they insist he or she hasn’t registered before but when they go to the biometric column then it will come out that the person has registered.
“At the moment, we’ve handed two to the police. On male and a female. Another issue is also with the registration of minors,” she indicated.
Meanwhile, some party operatives are pleased with the outcome thus far.
“So far, we are satisfied with the entire process except some few challenges but that aside, we are very much comfortable with the process. All in all, everything is great,” an agent told JoyNews.

Black Sherif prophesy: Prophet Nigel Gaisie makes u-turn

Nigel Gaisie, the founder and head of the Prophetic Hill Chapel, has stunned Ghanaians by backtracking on his prophecy regarding artist Black Sherif.
Prophet Gaisie had a vision in which he witnessed the mother of musical sensation Black Sherif sobbing excessively in a post on his official Facebook page.
As a result, he pushed the musician to seek safety before December, implying his impending death.
However, in a recent interview, Prophet Gaisie clarified that the prophecy is for a particular Sherif Black and not the Konongo-based performer.
“We see in bits and pieces, and what I saw in the spiritual realm is Sherif Black, but any logical person can make projections and deductions from it.” If I hear a prophecy about Ako and my name is Akosua, I will definitely act on it,” he said in parables.
Regardless, the man of God exhorted those who were convinced of the prophecy to fast and pray in order to avoid death.
Prophet Gaisie, who dismissed charges that his doom prophecies concerning celebrities are only for fame, stated that he will quit making them public in order to prevent insults and derision.
