I won’t accept sponsorship from any alcoholic brand – Joe Mettle

0

Award-winning gospel musician Joe Mettle has reiterated his stance against accepting sponsorship from alcoholic brands. During an interview on Daybreak Hitz with Andy Dosty, Mettle emphasized, “It is a no for me. Aside from faith, you can only work with brands that complement what you do.”

He further elaborated that corporate sponsorships often come with strings attached, explaining, “A company’s sponsorship is mostly not free since no matter what, you will be required to pay it someday since you will be invited on their stage.”

When asked about accepting anonymous sponsorship from an alcohol brand, he was uncertain and said, “With brands that give sponsorship and do not want to be mentioned, that is the silent sponsors, because silence is silent, I don’t know what I will do about that now though.”

The FDA’s guidelines for the Advertisement of Foods, published on February 1, 2016, prohibit well-known personalities from endorsing alcoholic beverages to prevent minors from being influenced into alcohol consumption. This guideline aligns with a World Health Organisation (WHO) policy to protect children and young individuals from alcohol addiction.

Despite a legal challenge by citizen Mark Darlington, who argued that the FDA’s directive was unconstitutional and discriminatory under Article 17 of the 1992 Constitution, the Supreme Court upheld the FDA’s ban. In a 5-2 majority decision on June 19, the court ruled that the directive was neither unreasonable nor excessive, thus affirming its constitutionality.

A netizen has challenged Vice President and New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to let one of the graduates from his Kayayei Skills Empowerment Programme become the official makeup artist for his wife, Samira Bawumia.

As part of his campaign efforts for the December 2024 elections, Dr. Bawumia’s office launched the Kayayei Skills Empowerment Programme to provide vocational training to these women, aiming to empower them and promote self-sufficiency.

The first batch of participants graduated recently after completing a three-week training course in various skills, including soap and detergent making, bead and jewelry crafting, pedicures and manicures, baking, and makeup artistry.

However, one netizen questioned the effectiveness of such brief training, pointing out that makeup artistry typically requires three to six months to learn. To demonstrate the program’s success, the netizen suggested that one of the newly trained makeup artists should be employed as Samira Bawumia’s makeup artist.

She posted: “The way the kayayei makeup artists just use 3 weeks to learn and graduate, in my humble opinion, and renting the brain in Bawumia’s head to make this humble suggestion, they should make 1 of them the makeup artist for Samira Bawumia.”Kayayei Samira’s make-up artist

Sammy Kuffour: Michael Essien filthy rich

0

Former Black Stars player Sammy Kuffour has refuted rumors circulating on social media that his colleague Michael Essien is broke.

Earlier this week, reports emerged suggesting that Essien’s mansions in Trassaco were up for sale based on a court order, sparking speculation about his financial status.

The reports did not clarify why the properties were to be sold or what the proceeds would be used for, leading some to speculate that Essien was unable to settle debts, prompting the court’s decision to auction his properties.

In response, Kuffour, who played alongside Essien, stated in an interview that Essien is not broke and owns numerous properties in the country. He expressed disbelief at the rumors, emphasizing Essien’s substantial wealth.

“To bring out the news and say Michael is broke is a shame. It is a shame that we think so negatively about our people. We should be positive; Michael is not broke. We are talking about a house that they took from him, which cost $20 million, and another one that costs $30 million,” Kuffour said.

“Nobody with a proper conscience will come out and say all kinds of things. You never spoke to the person; you never know exactly what the person is going through. So, how can you justify saying someone is broke?

“You would have to know if he comes to your house and begs for food, then you can justify it. I know the kind of assets that Michael has, and I will not stand anywhere and say Michael is broke. Michael is filthy rich,” he concluded.
