Efia Odo Sparks Viral Debate: “A Man Who Only Lasts 40 Minutes in Bed Is a Big Red Flag”

Accra, Ghana — Socialite and actress Efia Odo has ignited major online buzz after making some bold revelations about her relationship deal-breakers. In a recent episode of her podcast Rants, Bants, and Confessions, she didn’t hold back — declaring that any man who can’t last at least an hour in bed is a “red flag.”

According to Efia, anything below 40 minutes just won’t cut it:

“A guy who only lasts 40 minutes in bed, red flag. I need it to last a good hour or more. The first 10 minutes is for flirting.” 

But her list of non-negotiables doesn’t stop there. She also called out men in their 30s who still live with their parents, saying that lack of independence is a deal-breaker for her:

“Any guy who is 30 and above and you still live with your parents … for me that’s a red flag.” 

Efia explained this stance as rooted in her lifestyle — she loves walking around in lingerie (or even naked) at home, and she feels that kind of freedom might not be possible if her partner still lives with family. 

Unsurprisingly, her comments have sparked fierce debate across social media:

Some people applaud her for being honest and setting high standards.  Others argue that her expectations are unrealistic or put too much pressure on intimacy.  Relationship experts have weighed in — a counsellor told YEN.com.gh that while red flags are important, they should be balanced with compassion and understanding. 

Whether you agree or not, Efia’s message is loud and clear: for her, stamina matters — and she’s not afraid to call out what she considers weak efforts.

Otto Addo Calls 1–0 Loss to South Korea “Even” and “Good to Watch,” Confident in Ghana’s World Cup Prospects

Seoul, November 18, 2025 — Ghana head coach Otto Addo has described his side’s narrow 1–0 defeat to South Korea as a balanced contest, praising his team’s performance and expressing optimism ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Speaking at the post-match press conference, Addo congratulated South Korea on their win, acknowledging that they were “more clinical on their chances.” 

He added:

“I think it was a good game from both sides … I think the game was kind of even. I think it was good to watch.” 

Despite dominating large parts of the match, Ghana failed to convert their opportunities. According to Addo, the team had good ball possession and created several chances, but lacked the clinical finishing that South Korea displayed. 

He also highlighted some tactical positives: “Good pressing moments where we could have, when we won the ball, scored … but also, good counter-situations.” 

However, Addo admitted there were weaknesses, particularly in their pressing game. He said Ghana struggled to execute their high press effectively, partly because several players are still finding their rhythm in a relatively new setup. 

Looking ahead, the coach expressed confidence in his squad’s potential:

“For the World Cup, there are still some months to go for us to improve, surely also in all aspects … there’s still room to improve … especially for Ghana.” 

Addo believes that with further work, the Black Stars can make a strong impact on the global stage. Despite the setback in Seoul, he remains upbeat that Ghana “will improve before (the) World Cup.”

DNA Test Confirms Late Samuel Aboagye as Father of Abigail’s Infant Daughter

In a striking development, a DNA test result has reportedly confirmed that the late former official Samuel Aboagye is the biological father of his widow Abigail Salami’s infant daughter. The long-running dispute over paternity has now reached what appears to be a decisive moment.

DNA Test Confirms Late Samuel Aboagye as Father of Abigail’s Infant Daughter 7

The case first emerged when Aboagye’s family initiated legal proceedings, urging Salami to submit the child for DNA testing to determine parentage. In their filing, the family argued that the child’s status, inheritance rights and family responsibilities hinged on a clear biological link.

According to multiple social-media posts circulating late Friday, the DNA test was carried out at a certified laboratory and the result has been delivered to both parties. While the family has yet to release a formal statement, the post claims that the deceased Aboagye is confirmed as the father.

If the result is legally certified and recognized by the Ghanaian courts, this confirmation could carry substantial implications for inheritance issues and guardianship under Ghanaian family law. Experts note that paternity recognition post-humously is complex and often requires court endorsement to become legally binding.

Despite the widespread sharing of the claim, there is still no independently verified source from major Ghanaian news outlets confirming official certification of the test or publication of court documents. Observers have called for restraint until the certified test results and court rulings are published.

For now, the story remains at the “reported but not yet legally verified” stage. Aboagye’s family and Abigail Salami’s legal team may soon provide formal statements or court filings that will clarify and confirm the situation.

WENDY SHAY FILES POLICE COMPLAINT OVER FABRICATED VIRAL VIDEO

Ghanaian music star Wendy Shay has officially reported a circulating fabricated video to the Ghana Police Service, following widespread allegations accusing her of misconduct. In a public statement, the award-winning singer condemned the clip as “hurtful” and “malicious,” stating emphatically that the accusations were entirely false and intended to tarnish her image.

Police investigations have commenced, with preliminary findings revealing that the individual behind the video has been identified in the United Arab Emirates, where he is reportedly employed by a construction company. Authorities are currently working through international law enforcement channels to ensure the suspect faces appropriate legal consequences. Sources close to the case indicate that the police are treating the matter as a severe case of cyber-harassment and defamation.

Wendy Shay expressed deep appreciation to her fans for their unwavering support throughout the ordeal. She further called on the public to stand firmly against cyber-bullying, urging social media users to verify information before sharing and to refrain from participating in online attacks. According to the singer, the increasing trend of digital defamation against public figures is alarming and must be addressed through stronger security, responsible media practices, and legal enforcement.

The artist reaffirmed her commitment to her career and assured fans that she remains focused on delivering inspiring music. The case continues to attract public interest as authorities collaborate to expedite justice.

Bournemouth and Arsenal Locked in January Pursuit of Ghanaian Midfield Phenom Caleb Yirenkyi

Bournemouth and Arsenal are both reportedly eyeing a transfer for 19-year-old Ghanaian midfielder Caleb Yirenkyi, currently starring for Danish Superliga side FC Nordsjaelland. The young talent, who already holds multiple caps for the Ghana national team, is said to be valued at £20 million, with Nordsjaelland having secured his commitment on a long-term deal through 2030. 

Rising Star in Denmark

Yirenkyi is a product of the Right to Dream Academy in Ghana. He joined Nordsjaelland in 2024 and has since broken into the first team, impressing with his versatility and maturity in midfield.

Initially deployed as a right-sided midfielder — and even briefly playing right-back on his Ghana debut — he has flourished in a holding midfield role under Nordsjaelland manager Jens Fonsskov Olsen. 

The Essien Comparison

Yirenkyi’s evolution has been closely linked to Michael Essien, who is now an assistant coach at Nordsjaelland. The teenager has publicly credited Essien’s mentorship for his development:

“Michael Essien impacts every player … we learn a lot from him.” 

That bond, combined with Yirenkyi’s energy, physicality, and tactical intelligence, has led many to liken him to the former Chelsea midfielder. 

Contract Security & International Breakthrough

In October 2025, Yirenkyi signed a new contract extension with Nordsjaelland that runs until summer 2030, signaling the club’s long-term faith in him. 

On the international stage, he’s already earned senior caps for Ghana, having made his debut in May 2025. 

Transfer Interest: Bournemouth vs. Arsenal

According to reports, Bournemouth sees Yirenkyi as a player ready to step straight into the first team under Andoni Iraola, offering immediate Premier League impact. 

By contrast, Arsenal reportedly view him as a long-term investment — a prospect to be groomed and developed within their squad rather than rushed into the first XI. 

Rising Profile

Yirenkyi’s performances have already turned heads: he was nominated for Danish Superliga Young Player of the Month, and was recently ranked by the CIES Football Observatory among the top U20 defensive midfielders in Europe (outside the traditional top-five leagues). 

Bottom line: With his long contract, rapid development, and growing reputation, Caleb Yirenkyi has become a highly sought-after young talent — and Bournemouth and Arsenal could be set to battle it out for his signature in January.

Bournemouth Star Antoine Semenyo Gets Engaged to Girlfriend Jordeen Buckley

Ghanaian international and Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo has taken a major step in his personal life by proposing to his longtime girlfriend, Jordeen Buckley, and she said yes.

According to reports, Semenyo asked Buckley to marry him while recovering from an ankle injury that kept him out of Ghana’s friendly match against South Korea.  He went down on one knee in a carefully arranged, romantic setting. 

Following the proposal, Buckley shared photos of their engagement on her Instagram Stories, including a close-up of the ring and moments of celebration.  In her caption, she quoted Song of Solomon 3:4, writing: “I have found the one whom my soul loves.” 

The news has delighted fans across Ghana, with many celebrating the union of the striker and the London-based model. 

Buckley, a social media influencer and entrepreneur who owns JRosé NailBar in London, has frequently shown her support for Semenyo on social media, including after his successful 2024/25 Premier League season. 

This heartfelt moment highlights a softer side of the footballer, who is known for his physicality on the field. As he recovers from injury, Semenyo is not only building his career but also laying the foundation for a meaningful partnership off the pitch.

Kufuor: Ghana Has Wealth, But Needs Better Governance to Realize Its Potential

Former President John Agyekum Kufuor has long argued that Ghana is not a “poor country” but rather a nation with vast, underutilized resources. In his speeches, he has repeatedly highlighted that Ghana’s natural endowment—gold, land, and other assets—has not translated into prosperity for all. 

Kufuor: Ghana Has Wealth, But Needs Better Governance to Realize Its Potential 15

Kufuor warns that without effective governance, resource wealth may remain a curse rather than a blessing. At a policy forum, he noted that abundant natural resources require discipline, accountability, and institutional strength to drive national development. 

He has also urged governments to structure national wealth so it benefits the general population, not just a privileged few. According to him, good governance means more than economic growth—it means inclusion, the creation of jobs, and tangible improvements in people’s lives. 

By stressing both the country’s potential and the systemic obstacles that prevent that potential from being realized, Kufuor’s message challenges fatalistic narratives. He encourages Ghanaians to demand responsible leadership and to believe that their country can turn its natural riches into shared prosperity.

“Invest in Stability, Not Betrayal – Viral Message on Love and Financial Wisdom Sparks Debate”

A circulating message on social media has stirred strong reactions, advising individuals—particularly men—to prioritize practical financial investments over emotionally driven support. The statement reads: “To help a woman in the name of love, please use it to buy a goat to rear. It will yield a profit rather than investing in ungrateful people. Help a woman at her lowest and she will betray you when she is at her highest.”

“Invest in Stability, Not Betrayal – Viral Message on Love and Financial Wisdom Sparks Debate” 17

The message, which has gone viral across platforms such as Facebook and TikTok, suggests that instead of offering emotional or monetary support to partners, individuals should focus on tangible, income-generating ventures. Its comparison of helping a woman to rearing livestock for profit has sparked widespread debate.

Some users argue it reflects painful real-world experiences of betrayal after providing emotional and financial support. Others strongly criticize the post as generalising women unfairly and promoting distrust in relationships. Several comments emphasized that betrayal is not gender-specific and that mutual respect and transparency are the keys to meaningful partnerships.

Relationship counsellors caution against using past hurt to promote bitterness, advising instead that individuals learn from experiences while maintaining healthy boundaries. Economists, on the other hand, agree that investing in livestock or small-scale agribusiness can offer stable financial returns but warned against allowing emotional trauma to drive financial decisions.

The debate continues to trend, with users sharing stories of betrayal and financial loss in relationships, while others defend the importance of thoughtful investment and emotional wisdom.

POLICE ARREST SUSPECT IN VIRAL DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VIDEO

The Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service has taken swift action following a disturbing viral Facebook video showing a man physically assaulting a woman believed to be his wife at their residence in Ofankor, Ga East Municipality.

According to police sources, the violent incident was captured and shared on social media, sparking widespread outrage across the country. The video reportedly showed Mr. Lamptey aggressively attacking the woman, prompting calls from the public for immediate intervention.

Following his arrest, police disclosed that two of his siblings — Grace Kushie Lamptey and Louis Odartey Lamptey — were also detained. They allegedly attempted to assault a female tenant they believed had recorded and circulated the video. The tenant, whose identity has been withheld for security reasons, was quickly rescued by police officers to prevent further harm.

Authorities confirmed that the woman who was assaulted had fled the scene before police arrived, and a search is currently underway to locate her and ensure her safety. The Ghana Police Service reassured the public that tracking her down and providing necessary protection remains a priority.

In an official statement, the Ghana Police Service reaffirmed its strong commitment to combating domestic violence, insisting that such criminal acts will never be tolerated. They emphasized that perpetrators will face the full rigour of the law, and urged the public to continue reporting such cases, assuring them of confidentiality and protection.

The viral video has reignited national discussions around domestic abuse, with many social commentators calling for stronger enforcement and support systems for victims. The police have advised the public against taking matters into their own hands or attempting to confront suspects without law enforcement involvement.

Investigations are still ongoing, and the suspect, along with his detained siblings, is expected to assist police with inquiries as legal proceedings begin.

DR Congo Stun Nigeria to Move One Step Closer to 2026 World Cup

DR Congo have taken a huge leap toward the 2026 FIFA World Cup after eliminating Nigeria 4-3 on penalties in a dramatic African play-off final that ended 1-1 after extra time in Rabat.

DR Congo Stun Nigeria to Move One Step Closer to 2026 World Cup 23

The Leopards held their nerve in a tense six-round penalty shootout, with captain Chancel Mbemba converting the decisive kick. Goalkeeper Timothy Fayulu became the hero of the night after saving Semi Ajayi’s effort, sending DR Congo into next March’s intercontinental playoff—one final chance to book their ticket to the World Cup.

Nigeria, who already missed the 2022 tournament, will now sit out another World Cup after a disappointing showing on neutral soil. Their night had begun brightly when Frank Onyeka’s deflected strike found the net in just the third minute, raising hopes for the Super Eagles.

But DR Congo refused to fold. Meschack Elia equalised with a sharp close-range finish in the 31st minute, shifting momentum back to the Central Africans. The match remained locked through 120 minutes of fierce battles, near-misses, and high tension.

In the end, it was DR Congo’s composure that made the difference, setting up a massive intercontinental qualifier next year—one that could potentially end a decades-long absence from the World Cup stage.

Nigeria, meanwhile, face heavy criticism as fans question a second consecutive World Cup failure.
