MOGmusic fell short of nominations in categories such as Best Gospel Album, Album of the Year, and Best New Artist, despite his ambitions.

MOGmusic, a Ghanaian gospel artist, has stated that a mistake on his part resulted in his removal from the Grammy nominee list.

MOGmusic fell short of nominations in categories such as Best Gospel Album, Album of the Year, and Best New Artist, despite his ambitions.

In an interview with Hitz FM, he apologised for the blunder, stating that the use of the official Grammy emblem on a promotional brochure was a mistake made by his social media team, which resulted in his disqualification.

“My social media handler made a mistake and put the official logo of the Grammys, and it got posted. Some Ghanaians drew my attention to it, and we quickly took it down, but it was too late. That is what went wrong on my side, it’s a mistake that my team made, and I take the bullet for myself,” MOGmusic stated.

Despite the defeat, MOGmusic advised Ghanaians to unite behind their artists and avoid ridiculing those who did not earn nominations.

He stressed the need for togetherness and solidarity within Ghana’s music community.

“One piece of advice I have for Ghanaians is that I think we need to be very supportive. Davido submitted his work time and time again, but he just got his nominations. I never saw Nigerians trolling Davido or comparing him to Burna Boy. I think what we should do is be more united so that these people will realize that there is a group of people from Ghana who support their people or go all out for their people,” he urged.

Shatta Wale breaks down in tears and kneels to apologise to Mahama

"Shatta Wale approached me and said, 'My father, I need you to do me a favour. I said certain things to former President Mahama, and I feel terrible about approaching him. I took his hand and marched him there. It happened on the plane in public, and I have video footage that I will post. Dr. Tetteh claimed he was perplexed when Shatta Wale burst into tears and fell to his knees when he was led to Mahama's seat. He said that Shatta apologised passionately to the former President for criticising him during one of his unjustifiable tantrums some years ago. His disrespect disrupted the bond he had developed with Mr. Mahama during his campaign trip, where Shatta entertained the crowd.

Dr Lawrence Tetteh, the founder of Worldwide Miracle Outreach, has described a remarkable interaction on a plane between former President John Mahama and dancehall King Shatta Wale.

Dr Lawrence Tetteh said over the weekend that he and the two boarded the same airline to London and were seated close together.

According to him, Shatta Wale approached him and asked him to escort him to John Mahama’s aisle for a quick rendezvous, which he consented to because it was mutual between the two sides.

Nonetheless, in an interview with GTV, Dr Lawrence stated that Mr. Mahama completely accepted the apology and even made light of the issue.

He did, however, advise him to be on his best behaviour as a role model.

Dr Tetteh stated that Shatta demonstrated humility by accepting his error and promising not to repeat his behaviour.

Celestine Donkor comments about reports of getting weight loss surgery

According to her study, physicians typically prescribe such procedures based on health evaluations, especially if one's life is in danger owing to weight-related difficulties. However, in her instance, Celestine stated that she is quite fit and has never suffered high blood pressure or other abnormalities linked with being plus size, so surgery is not a possibility for her at this time, unless advised. "I am plus-sized yet highly active. In a marathon, I might even outperform a lot of slender folks. The obesity is in my genes; my family is large. I've never had high blood pressure or anything. I get frequent check-ups, drink enough of water, and get adequate rest, so I'm in good health."

Celestine Donkor, a gospel performer, has spoken out about claims that she is considering weight loss surgery.

Celestine stressed that she has not made a decision, thus “I wouldn’t say no and I wouldn’t say yes.”

Recognising the cultural pressure to maintain a specific image, particularly as an artist, the singer stated that she has weighed the health risks of body-altering operations.

Doreen Avio said in an interview with Hitz FM’s Daybreak Hitz that her phobia of knives is another barrier keeping her from undergoing surgery.

Celestine said that she had enough incisions on her body from her three caesarean sections during delivery.

In light of this, she prefers dieting and other less dangerous options such as exercise and intermittent fasting.

Celestine chose to invest in her soul above her body, despite receiving nearly GH¢50,000 for surgery.

“I am confident that if I have GH¢40,000 or GH¢50,000 to work on this body, I will invest in my soul.” This body will expire, no matter how thin and well-carved it is.
The useless thing after death is the human body; even animal bodies have value since we utilise them as sustenance, but for people, the corpse is no longer worthy of being discarded.”

Celestine Donkor warned her admirers to embrace her for who she is, as she will not endanger her life to adhere to conventional notions of what a perfect woman should look like.
