Rapper clarifies he has no involvement in $150,000 fundraiser initiated by Kwaw Kese

Kwesi Arthur has publicly cautioned fans and the general public against donating to a GoFundMe campaign created in his name, clarifying that he has no involvement or approval of the fundraiser.

The campaign, which sought to raise $150,000, was reportedly initiated by fellow musician Kwaw Kese with the intention of helping Kwesi Arthur resolve alleged outstanding issues with his former record label, Ground Up Chale. However, Kwesi Arthur made it clear that the initiative was done without his consent.

In a public statement, the award-winning rapper distanced himself entirely from the GoFundMe effort, stressing that he is not affiliated with the campaign and did not authorize anyone to raise money on his behalf. He urged supporters to refrain from donating, emphasizing that any such contributions were not requested by him.

Following Kwesi Arthur’s response, Kwaw Kese acknowledged the concerns raised and admitted that the idea was his personal attempt to offer support. He explained that while his intentions were to help, he failed to seek approval from Kwesi Arthur before launching the fundraiser.

Kwaw Kese further stated that he would delete the GoFundMe campaign, respecting Kwesi Arthur’s position and wishes. He reiterated that there was no malicious intent behind the initiative, describing it as an attempt to assist a fellow artist during a difficult period.

The situation has since sparked conversations across social media about fundraising transparency, consent, and the sensitive nature of legal and contractual disputes in the music industry. Many fans have praised Kwesi Arthur for addressing the issue directly and clarifying misinformation before it escalated further.

As of now, no official fundraising effort has been endorsed by Kwesi Arthur regarding his dispute with Ground Up Chale, and supporters have been advised to rely only on communications coming directly from the artist or his verified representatives.

Rapper claims he is being blocked from releasing music independently

Ghanaian rapper Kwesi Arthur has publicly raised alarm over what he describes as ongoing threats, intimidation, and attempts to block his independent music career, allegedly involving Glen Boateng and members of the Ground Up Chale team.

In a strongly worded public statement, the artist claimed he is currently being asked to pay $150,000 for using images of himself in a new independent project. According to Kwesi Arthur, Ground Up Chale is allegedly asserting ownership over his image, music, and personal brand from 2016 to the present, despite his claim that he has not worked with or been affiliated with the company since the release of Son of Jacob.

Kwesi Arthur further alleged that he has not earned any income from his music during the years he worked under the label and accused Glen Boateng of benefiting financially from his labor while subjecting him to “constant threats and manipulation.”

The rapper stated that if his current independent project is taken down, he believes Glen Boateng would be responsible, alleging deliberate efforts to prevent him from releasing music again.

Expressing concern for his mental health, wellbeing, and family safety, Kwesi Arthur said he chose to speak publicly after remaining silent for a long time, describing the situation as emotionally distressing.

It is important to note that these claims are allegations made by Kwesi Arthur and have not been independently verified at the time of publication. Ground Up Chale and Glen Boateng have not yet issued a public response to the accusations.

The situation has sparked intense discussion across social media, with fans and industry observers calling for transparency, legal clarity, and due process.

High Court set to hear case linked to alleged payroll irregularities at NSS

The trial of former National Service Scheme (NSS) Deputy Director, Gifty Oware, in connection with the widely reported NSS ghost names scandal, is scheduled to begin on Thursday, January 22, at the High Court.

While Gifty Oware has consistently maintained her position regarding the allegations, the upcoming trial is expected to bring clarity as evidence is presented before the court.

The proceedings are being closely watched by the public, civil society groups, and anti-corruption advocates, as the case is seen as a key test of Ghana’s commitment to transparency and accountability in public service administration.

Akufo-Addo Became the Problem Ghanaians Were Solving – Kwaku Bonsam

Spiritual leader delivers scathing critique of former president’s leadership

Controversial spiritual leader Kwaku Bonsam has launched a sharp attack on former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, accusing him of failing to deliver on the promises that secured him power.

According to Kwaku Bonsam, Akufo-Addo once begged Ghanaians to vote for him with assurances that he would solve their problems, but instead became the very problem citizens had to contend with.

“Akufo-Addo begged Ghanaians to vote for him to solve their problems, but he was rather the problem Ghanaians were solving,” Kwaku Bonsam stated.

The outspoken traditional priest argued that the economic hardships, rising cost of living, youth unemployment, and growing public frustration experienced during Akufo-Addo’s tenure reflected a major disconnect between campaign promises and governance realities.

Kwaku Bonsam further suggested that many Ghanaians voted with hope and trust, only to be confronted with policies and decisions that worsened their living conditions rather than improving them.

His comments have sparked renewed debate on social media, with supporters and critics of the former president weighing in on whether Akufo-Addo’s administration met the expectations set during election campaigns.

While supporters of the former president argue that global economic pressures contributed significantly to Ghana’s challenges, critics insist that leadership decisions played a decisive role in the country’s struggles.

The remarks by Kwaku Bonsam add to a growing list of public criticisms aimed at Ghana’s political leadership, as the country continues to reflect on governance, accountability, and the future direction of national leadership.
