Ghanaian gospel musician and preacher, Sonnie Badu has opened up on the injuries he sustained after a domestic accident in December 2023.

Speaking on the Onua Showtime over the weekend, Sonnie Badu disclosed that he has currently lost two of his toes on the right foot as a result of the accident last year.

“I went through depression for six months, I’m left with only three toes,” he said.

“On that day I was cleaning up and I slipped on the staircase, my rail is a metal. I was supposed to hit my head on the ground but I went on the floor with my shoulder to protect myself. So, I landed on my shoulder and my leg went through the metal sharp rail and my toes were slitted.

“I was bleeding everywhere. We drove to the hospital and I walked to the emergency. When the doctors checked, they asked where are my toes and I asked which toes before I realise my toes had been slitted.

So, I asked my team members to go check with a torchlight and they saw the toes on the floor, picked it up and placed in an iced box and brought it to the hospital. The doctors checked and refused it,” – He narrated.

Host of Onua Showtime, Nana Ama affirmed the incident after the musician showed images to her on the show.

The singer underwent a surgery after he stumbled on the steps between the garden and the metal railings in his home while cleaning and watering in December last year.

Despite his condition, Sonnie Badu, who hadn’t fully recovered, was later seen performing at his Rhythms of Africa concert in Accra on December 9, 2023.

This caused people to claim on social media that his injury was not severe and only staged to gain attention for his Rhythms of Africa concert.

However, Sonnie Badu dismissed such claims on Onua Showtime with Nana Ama McBrown over the weekend.

Afia Pokuaa has publicly reacted for the first time after Manhyia Palace rejected her apology yesterday despite hours of pleading

Two days ago, Afia Pokuaa together with Mona Gucci, Kumchacha and other Media General executives visited Manhyia Palace to seek forgiveness.

Unfortunately for them, Otumfuo’s representative remained firm in the decision to turn her away, forbidding her from ever returning to the palace.

During the encounter, an elder made an emotional appeal on her behalf, highlighting that Pokua had been on her knees since her arrival and had delivered a heartfelt apology.

Nonetheless, the Otumfuo’s representative was unwavering, explaining that apologies are not always enough in such matters.

He stressed that some offences require the individual to bear the consequences of their actions, and Pokua’s situation was one such case.

“Who do you think you are to disrespect the Otumfuo? If you think you’ve grown wings, don’t aim them at Kumasi. You claim to be from Kwahu, yet even they separated from the Ashanti Kingdom. They speak our language,” he remarked sternly.

It seems Afia Pokuaa has no intentions of going to Manhyia Palace to seek another plea.

In a Facebook post, she thanks God for how far he has brought her. And also pleaded with him to hear her cry and comfort her in these trying times.

Young Ghanaian Lawyer Ama Governor is speaking out loudly about what she believes is injustice being metered to her and others who were arrested two days ago.

The Ghanaian social media influencer was among 42 demonstrators from the Democracy Hub protest, which the police say it erupted into violent and impactful clashes at the 37 Intersection in Accra on Sunday, 22nd September 2024.

The protestors were picked up whilst protesting illegal mining (Galamsey). Appearing in court today whilst handcuffed, Ama Governor poured out her heart to the press, revealing that she had no food and no water ever since her arrest.

“I want to go so they grant us bail, 48 hours, no food, no water,” she screamed to the press in the video below whilst going through protocols to enter the courtroom. Showing off her hands in handcuffs, she added, “You want us in this? You want to see a 26-year-old lawyer because she said Stop Galamsey. That’s our only crime, Stop Galamsey.”

In a new report, the arrested 42 protestors have been denied bail, with their reappearance slated for 8th October.

In a statement released late Sunday, the police said all 42 arrested individuals, including some of the group’s leaders, will face the law.

The statement, signed by ACP Grace Ansah-Akrofi, Director of Public Affairs for the Ghana Police Service, noted that the demonstrators were involved in acts of lawlessness, including obstructing traffic, damaging police property, and attacking officers performing their duties.
