You mock married people for not having children, you forget also that you can lose your children all at once

Posted on by Kofi Tutu

You mock married people for not having children, you forget also that you can lose your children all at once

You mock single people for not getting married, you forget also that you can lose your spouse and be thrown into the misery of loss and bereavement.

You mock women who don’t have male children, you forget suddenly that you can lose your own male children.

You mock people for dying early forgetting that we’d all die, the only difference is that we don’t know when.

You mock people for their health struggles forgetting that the only difference between you being a social media beggar is that same sickness that can hit you anytime.

You mock people who decide to space their children with talks of menopause and time, you forget that menopause hits everyone too and

You mock people who don’t have money, you forget suddenly that you can make that one financial decision and lose all you have.

My point?

Stop mocking people who don’t seem to have what you have.

Stop shaming people with what they don’t seem to have control over.

You who has it all, doesn’t have it all by your own power or might. If God decides to take away his mercies and grace from us, which one of us can actually stand?

My friend told me of a woman whom she had an argument online with and this woman mocked her of how single she still is at 39. She narrated this with tears in her eyes.

Reminds me of this woman who kept bugging me about children, bragging about how she’s in her late thirties and her children are already adults, how she’s going to relax and enjoy the fruits of her labour even before she gets to fifty.

Well, sadly, she lost two of these adult children. Losing her children made her realize that you don’t brag about such things you have and use them to spite others because you have absolute no power of yours to make this happen.

And when we get to heaven, nobody is going to take a crown for getting married earlier, having adults children before your mates or building your mansions before others.

After her loss, she came to ask for my forgiveness and said she had offended me by constantly bugging me about children. I told her I wasn’t a witch o, me I didn’t eat her children and I was sorry tragedy had to teach her this way. I forgave her but I hope she had learnt her lesson.

Stop using what people have no control over to spite them?! Remember, just like that woman, tragedies can humble you.

Robert Kutin Jnr. Best For National Chairmanship Post

Posted on by Kofi Tutu

Some New Patriotic Party (NPP) Regional Chairmen and delegates are rallying their support for the Central Regional Chairman, Robert Kutin Jnr. to become the National Chairman of the party.

The NPP Chairmen who believe Robert Kutin Jnr. is best to take up the national position in the party averred that his performance as the central Regional Chairman has been tremendous.

Speaking to some delegates of the party, they have also expressed similar enthusiasm to see to it that Robert Kutin Jnr. is elected as the National Chairman of the party.

They urged all NPP members especially delegates to stay united and rally behind Robert Kutin Jnr. in the event that he offers himself up as candidate for the National Chairmanship position.

They mentioned that the task ahead of the party going into 2024 elections is huge and it demands a more committed, versatile, grassroot oriented and a welcoming personality to lead the party in that capacity as Chairman, hence their support for Robert Kutin Jnr.

They also called on delegates of the party to consolidate the victory of the NPP in the coming elections by voting massively for Robert Kutin Jnr. in the party’s national elections.

According to the proponents of Robert Kutin Jnr.’s bid, Robert Kutin Jnr. stood tall among those who would possibly vie for the National Chairmanship position, and therefore called on the delegates to ensure he is elected to enhance the fortunes of the party in 2024.

They stated that Robert Kutin Jnr. had made the party very attractive to the youth in particular and embarked on a vigorous grass-roots campaign that enabled the party perform well in the Central Region.

They averred that Robert Kutin Jnr. had been tried and tested, adding that in terms of party organisation and effective party leadership, he was ahead, hence their decision to throw their weight behind him in the interest of the party.

They also mentioned that the NPP needs an honest, faithful and loyal chairman who will work hard to ensure that the party holds on to power in subsequent elections.

Hon. Ntim Fordjour calls for immediate closure of LGBTQI resource centre in Ghana

Posted on by Kofi Tutu

The Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin South, Hon.Rev. John Ntim Fordjour has called on the National Security to immediately close down the recently opened LGBTQI resource centre in Ghana.

Mr. Fordjour said Ghana views lesbianism, homosexuality, bestiality and other related practices of LGBTQI  as an “abomination and utterly abhorred” hence must not be encouraged in the country. 

According to him, Ghana has “since pre-colonial era had always upheld a culture of morality and decency and within our cultural and traditional contexts.”

“I strongly urge the national security apparatus to take urgent steps to CLOSE DOWN the LGBTQI resource center in Ghana with immediate effect and prosecute the perpetrators accordingly.”

The Assin South legislator added he believes that activities of LGBTQIs in Ghana are due to pressures from the western world and that must be resisted as long as they continue.

“The influence of the west on our society relating to LGBTQI infiltrations remain an age-old pressure, which must be resisted as long as the pressure shows no indication of abating.”

The opening of the LGBTQI center in an unknown location in Ghana has recently generated public conversations with some calling on the government to close it down, claiming that it will serve interests that are abhorrent to culture and values of the country while others have insisted that the rights of LGBTQIs must be protected and as anyone else.

Meanwhile, the Ghana Catholic Bishops Conference has also called on president Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo to close down the facility

The Conference insisted that though the church respects the human rights of homosexuals, it frowns upon acts of homosexuality.

“We also call on the Government of Ghana to close down the LGBTQI office space that was recently opened in Accra,” it said in a statement.

Below is the full statement 

Close down LGBTQI resource Centre with immediate effect – Rev Ntim Fordjour Urges National Security

Our Ghanaian society, since pre-colonial era had always upheld a culture of morality and decency and within our cultural and traditional contexts, the practices of Lesbianism, Homosexuality, Bestiality and Transgender and other related practices of LGBTQI had long held as abomination and utterly abhorred. The concept of family for us as Ghanaians has always been and will always be initiated by marriage between a man and woman. The fundamental principle of Biblical marriage is construed as one between man and woman as it was in the beginning instituted by God between Adam and Eve.

The influence of the west on our society relating to LGBTQI infiltrations remain an age old pressure, which must be resisted as long as the pressure shows no indication of abating.

Section 104 of Ghana’s Criminal Code proscribes LGBTQI with the specific provision of ‘unnatural carnal knowledge’. While some activists have contended that the provision of ‘unnatural carnal knowledge’ is anachronistic and no longer sufficient to adequately address the emerging trends of LGBTQI matters in the country, and so therefore further strengthening of the law is required to position our laws more robust, encompassing and stringent in dealing with the abominable practices of LGBTQI, I have remained an ardent advocate for the enforcement of existing laws and fully inclined towards further legislation to adequately deal with these matters in consistency with the Constitution of Ghana and in line with our broad religious and cultural orientation, with particular regard for morality.

Contrary to the notion that persons practicing LGBTQI in Ghana are discriminated against, I strongly hold the view that persons practicing LGBTQI are rather unfortunately pampered and treated with kids gloves in Ghana. This position of mine, among other references, is premised on the seeming public ‘glorifying’ on media of acts which are serious contravention of our law. The impunity of open and public advocacy and practice LGBTQI is on the rise largely because perpetrators have not been prosecuted.

The recent opening of LGBTQI resource center in Accra is the height of it. Is the National Security apparatus telling us that they have no information on the location of this so called LGBTQI resource center that has been opened for weeks now? Are they telling us they have no intelligence on the people and groups behind this abominable act? Why are they quite? If ‘Armed Robbers Association’ or ‘Drug Traffickers Association’ were to publicly open an office in any obscure corner of Ghana, wouldn’t the security agencies conduct a rapid raid by now with alacrity?

It is appalling and most hypocritical that a state that abhors LGBTQI practices on religious and cultural orientation as well as criminalizes same practices per our Criminal Code would sit unconcerned for such impunity to be perpetrated. Some of us, regardless the ramifications, cannot shut up! I’ll keep up the advocacy for further strengthening of our laws to completely and assertively deal with the complexities of LGBTQI matters and will continue to explore my legislative options under the private members bill until such a time when existing laws will be confidently enforced with additional laws proscribing the advocacy for LGBTQI practices in Ghana.

Until then, I strongly urge the national security apparatus to take urgent steps to CLOSE DOWN the LGBTQI resource center in Ghana with immediate effect and prosecute the perpetrators accordingly.

My fervent appeal to our eminent Clergy, Muslim Clerics, and venerable Traditional leaders, respectfully, is that, if these LGBTQI practices and advocacies are truly deemed affront to the values and orientation of what we unanimously believe in as a nation-state, then this is the time to rise up and make our voices and strong position heard and entrenched more uncompromisingly than ever before.

On diplomatic front, I urge all state and non state actors and external diplomatic entities to respect the sovereign orientation and decision of Ghana in such matters and withhold their undue interference under the guise of human rights.

One of the Last Slave Ship Survivors Describes His Ordeal in a 1930s Interview

Posted on by Kofi Tutu

More than 60 years after the abolition of slavery, anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston made an incredible connection: She located one of the last survivors of the last slave ship to bring captive Africans to the United States.

Hurston, a known figure of the Harlem Renaissance who would later write the novel Their Eyes Were Watching God, conducted interviews with Oluale Kossola (renamed Cudjo Lewis), but struggled to publish them as a book in the early 1930s. In fact, they were only released to the public in a book called Barracoon: The Story of the Last “Black Cargo” that came out in May of 2018.

Hurston’s book tells the story of Lewis, who was born Oluale Kossola in what is now the West African country of Benin. A member of the Yoruba people, he was only 19 years old when members of the neighboring Dahomian tribe invaded his village, captured him along with others, and marched them to the coast. There, he and about 120 others were sold into slavery and crammed onto the Clotilda, the last slave ship to reach the continental United States.

The Clotilda brought its captives to Alabama in 1860, just a year before the outbreak of the Civil War. Even though slavery was legal at that time in the U.S., the international slave trade was not, and hadn’t been for over 50 years. Along with many European nations, the U.S. had outlawed the practice in 1807, but Lewis’ journey is an example of how slave traders went around the law to continue bringing over human cargo.

To avoid detection, Lewis’ captors snuck him and the other survivors into Alabama at night and made them hide in a swamp for several days. To hide the evidence of their crime, the 86-foot sailboat was then set ablaze on the banks of the Mobile-Tensaw Delta (its remains may have been uncovered in January 2018).

Most poignantly, Lewis’ narrative provides a first-hand account of the disorienting trauma of slavery. After being abducted from his home, Lewis was forced onto a ship with strangers. The abductees spent several months together during the treacherous passage to the United States, but were then separated in Alabama to go to different owners.

“We very sorry to be parted from one ’nother,” Lewis told Hurston. “We seventy days cross de water from de Affica soil, and now dey part us from one ’nother. Derefore we cry. Our grief so heavy look lak we cain stand it. I think maybe I die in my sleep when I dream about my mama.”

Lewis also describes what it was like to arrive on a plantation where no one spoke his language, and could explain to him where he was or what was going on. “We doan know why we be bring ’way from our country to work lak dis,” he told Hurston. “Everybody lookee at us strange. We want to talk wid de udder colored folkses but dey doan know whut we say.”

As for the Civil War, Lewis said he wasn’t aware of it when it first started. But part-way through, he began to hear that the North had started a war to free enslaved people like him. A few days after Confederate General Robert E. Lee

surrendered in April 1865, Lewis says that a group of Union soldiers stopped by a boat on which he and other enslaved people were working and told them they were free.

Lewis expected to receive compensation for being kidnapped and forced into slavery, and was angry to discover that emancipation didn’t come with the promise of “forty acres and a mule,” or any other kind of reparations. Frustrated by the refusal of the government to provide him with land to live on after stealing him away from his homeland, he and a group of 31 other freepeople saved up money to buy land near Mobile, which they called Africatown.

Hurston’s use of vernacular dialogue in both her novels and her anthropological interviews was often controversial, as some black American thinkers at the time argued that this played to black caricatures in the minds of white people. Hurston disagreed, and refused to change Lewis’ dialect—which was one of the reasons a publisher turned her manuscript down back in the 1930s.

Many decades later, her principled stance means that modern readers get to hear Lewis’ story the way that he told it.

To the busy men and women in a relationship

Posted on by Kofi Tutu

Relationships and Marriages are going to require you to sacrifice your time to communicate and be with the one your say you love.

If you are not ready to make out time for your partner then you are not ready for a relationship or marriage.

Some of you are known to use the word
I am too busy,
I forgot.
You are not understanding that my work takes a lot from me.

These are beautiful excuses but they are worthless. The truth is that we all are busy with life in one way or another but we make out time for what is important to us.

You are busy but you take your bath.
You are busy but you still have time to eat.
You are busy but you still chat.
You are busy but you still wash your clothes.
You are busy but you still sleep.
You are busy but you still hang out with some other friends.

It’s only when it comes to your relationship that you are busy and still busy, even very busy that you can’t make out few minutes to talk to your partner over the phone, leave them a voice note, send a text or even clear some of your schedules and plan a hangout.

Let me tell you this for free until you are ready to make your partner a priority in your life then you are not ready for a relationship or marriage.

Marriage is a full-time job on its own. So if you can’t sacrifice time and other things now in your relationship to be with your partner then you are not ready to make that union work therefore stay away until you are ready.

As a guy, don’t spend months chasing a lady, calling her morning, afternoon, and night but when she finally says yes then you start claiming you are so busy to call or chat.

As a lady don’t keep that guy waiting for a yes and at the same time you call and chat but the moment you agree then you start claiming to be busy.

And to you who is suffering from this right now listen up.

Nobody, i mean not even a single soul is too busy for what they love.

Anybody that really loves you will make out time for you.

If you are not talking at least two times a day and they call you an attention seeker then you are in trouble. They are not passionate about you.

I understand the concept of being an attention seeker but you are not if you hardly talk to each other. You are just demanding for your fundamental relationship right of communication.

(Side note: you are an attention seeker when you are now a pest. You want to talk every minute and second of the day like you don’t have a life of your own outside that relationship. But aside from this, you are not doing anything wrong).

Also know when you leave a sure relationship because of your mental health.

So to you out there claiming busy, just be honest with yourself and with your partner if you truly love them.

If you don’t love them then let them go so they can meet who loves them but if you really love them then learn how to make out time for them.

Work on your time management skill and you will enjoy a better relationship and marriage.

Cheers.

Covid-19:Teachers deserve reward for commitment, not only nurses — Akatsi South GNAT to government

Posted on by Kofi Tutu

Mr Prosper Agbeli, Chairman of the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT), Akatsi South has stated that, teachers in the country must be applauded and rewarded for showing commitment to work in the midst of the Coronavirus disease.

According to him, the government has placed priority only on the health sector whilst teachers are left behind.

He added that school children in Akatsi area are finding it very difficult to adhere to the laid down covid-19 protocols especially during break time and after school hours.

He said, maintaining social distancing among children is one of the challenges they are facing in the classrooms since desks are not enough for the pupil.

Mr Agbeli explained that teachers risk their lives playing key roles in ensuring that children go according to the standard protocols to mitigate the spread of the virus.

He appeals for veronica buckets to ensure easy hand washing since school kids often play about anyhow.

Mr Agbeli said wearing the face mask by students during school hours has bee given attention but the situation does not continue after school hours which he said, “is a worrying situation” for teachers as well.

He maintained that government must acknowledge their efforts in these hard times of the covid-19 pandemic and award all teachers for the sacrifices.

Facts About Sex Everyone Must Know Especially SIngles

Posted on by Kofi Tutu

It’s not abnormal to have sexual urges or feelings. God gave us organs and hormones that would prepare us to have it when it’s stimulated.

You can have safe sex. The media has promoted the use of contraceptives or staying faithful with a partner outside marriage to achieve that, but the truth is that abstinence and staying contented with marital sex is the only safe sex you can ever have.

Meanwhile, you can’t be in an immoral relationship and your chances of falling victim to premarital sex won’t be high.

The likes of kissing, caressing, fondling, and other sexually stimulating activities are nothing but sexual immorality. Don’t play with the fire you can’t extinguish.

Whether you believe it or not, sex does not love. A man can love you without going down there, and a woman can be your friend without luring you for sex. It all depends on the kind of person you’re in a relationship with and your values.

Sex is good. Medical science and researchers have proved its immense benefits for your health and body; but little do they mention when its effect on your mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health. Sex is only good in marriage, anywhere outside that is abominable and sinful.

Sex is pleasurable and sweet. The moaning, pleasure, orgasm, feelings, and all the effect it leaves you with makes it good for the body, much to be desired and it makes you “feel” like a man or woman.

But…

Sex outside marriage is a sin that God Himself supervises its punishment. You may argue that but it doesn’t change anything; it’s outright evil.

It’s a sin against God who created it. Do you think He’d be happy with you for abusing the purpose of why He created it? He doesn’t understand your ideology that “body no be firewood” as an excuse to indulge in it.

More so, having illicit sex is a sin against your body. Everyone who has sex outside marriage brings shame and dishonor to their bodies. What contraceptive can’t undo or prevent, sex outside marriage would expose you to it.

Having sex outside marriage is a vice that affects society due to the widespread of single parenting, an increase in fornicators and adulterers where bad precedence is laid for the next generation.

Why is the issue of DNA testing and cheating brouhaha becoming trendy news in the media? Because men and women choose to have sex outside marriage or before it.

See…

The devil has hijacked God’s purpose for sex, deceiving many to have it outside marriage so he can use it as a means to recruit their souls into his kingdom of darkness.

How do I mean?

Every illicit sexual act you have is a legal ground for the devil to invade your soul with the demons of sexual perversion and inordinate desire for it.

Now, many are becoming exposed to illicit sex and are defending themselves with reasons that sound like truths but are lies from the pit of hell.

Almost everybody wants to get the feeling of sexual pleasure when they’re not married even down to upcoming children 😜 Nawa o! Some married people aren’t faithful to their spouses anymore because of sex. Kilode?

If the reasons He created sex are despised, then sex becomes abused. Aren’t you an abuser of sex?

Sex is not a Valentine’s Day gift for singles or a means to appreciate what someone has done for you.

The prevalent longing for sexual intimacy and its involvement in almost all opposite-sex relationships has made many grown wild in the pursuit of their lustful passion which contradicts God’s instructions.

Now that many do not want to acknowledge God in their knowledge concerning sex, He gave them over to a reprobate mind to do those things that are not sensible.

In case you don’t know, God created sex and the “how” and “when” it should be done. Lawmakers do not create it even if they legalize the perverted forms, neither do scientists or psychologists have a final say over it.

You can only be satisfied sexually in marriage by submitting to God’s word on sexual matters, embrace chastity, then stay away from sexual pleasure outside marriage.

And singles can embrace the discipline of chastity depending on the association they keep, their mindset, or the choice they make; but remember that every choice has its consequence.

But to be honest, it’s difficult to embrace chastity in this present clime, but with the fear of God, understanding, discipline, and determination, you can do it.

Where are singles who have vowed to have their first-time sex only on their wedding night? Unfortunately, many are fast-breaking their purity vows because of the temptation and loneliness that comes with being single.

Satisfaction from sexual pleasure will never come with that sister or brother, a whore, a side chick, a sugar mummy, a sugar boy, your boyfriend or girlfriend. It will only come with your husband or wife in marriage.

Hear this, having too many sexual partners and undue exposure to it steals sexual contentment in marriage, instead of bringing it. It would be difficult for you to stay faithful in marriage when you have fragmented your soul with many sexual partners before marriage.

Resolve to be faithful today, for yourself and your spouse and you’ll save your home and society from the evils of sexual discontent.

May God help you to be sexually content as married couples and to embrace chastity as singles so you won’t be deceived by the lies of the enemy that destroys.

Video: I’m gay, I prefer men like John Dumelo – Pappy Kojo

Posted on by Kofi Tutu

Jason Gaisie, popularly known as Pappy Kojo, a Ghanaian hip hop and hiplife recording artist, has claimed on the Showbiz 360 programme on TV3, that he is a homosexual.

Asked by host of the programe Giovani Caleb on Friday February 19 whether or not he was joking with the comment, he insisted with all seriousness that he is gay.

Pappy Kojo further told Giovani that he prefers men like actor John Dumelo

“I am a homosexual man,” he said when told about rumours indicating that he is currently dating a popular female musician. He said in reaction to a question by Giovani about his alleged relationship with Yvonne Nelson.

“Is that a joke?” Giovani asked him but he answered “No, it is not. I am gay bro. I am into men”

“What is your kind of man? He was asked again.

In answer, he said “Men like John Dumelo.”

When his attention was drawn to the fact that laws of the land do no permit such act, he retorted ”You can’t change it.”

Meanwhile Giovani believed he was joking with these comments which come at a time issues about Lesbian, Gay, Bisexuals, Transgender and Queer Individuals (LGBTQI) have dominated discussions on the airwaves after Minister-designate for Gender, Children and Social Protection, Sarah Adwoa Sarfo has expressed disapproval over the legalisation of homosexuality in the country.

The Dome Kwabenya lawmaker during her vetting by the Appointments Committee of Parliament said “The issue of LGBTQI is an issue that when mentioned creates some controversy but “what I want to say is that our laws are clear on such practices. It makes it criminal.

“On the issue of its criminality, it is non-negotiable on the issue of cultural acceptance and norms too. These practices are also frowned upon,” she stated emphatically.

Director of LGBTQI+ Rights in Ghana, Alex Kofi Donkor, has asked Ghanaians to look at issues relating to LGBTQI, as human right issues.

He told TV3’s Miriam Osei Agyemang on the Mid day news on Friday February 19 that persons who are identified as LGBTQI are verbally and physically attacked in the country

This, he said, must stop because they have fundamental human rights that must be respected and protected by the society.

Explaining the reasons behind the setup of an LGBTQI office in Ghana, he said “We created an office space where we talk about issues which affect us as community and ways in which we can resolve the issues.

“Let me quickly say in this country a lot of times we do experience a lot of violence and abuse that are perpetuated towards people who are identified as LGBTQI or people who are perceived as LGBTQI persons. When these violence are perpetuated against such people it goes unattended to, people do that with impunity.”

Dr. Vladimir Antwi Danso, Dean of Academic Affairs at the Ghana Armed Forces Command and Staff College, has urged Ghanaians, especially those in authority to be emphatic in the resistance of the LGBTQI phenomenon in the country.

He expressed his apprehension on the heels of the LGBTQI establishing an office in the country in an interview with Alfred Ocansey on News 360 on TV3, Thursday February 18.

Dr. Danso emphasized the position that “any international organization can support any other entity in any other country but that does not confer diplomatic immunity to persons who are going to use this facility, so if any Ghanaian is there doing anything, only Ghanaian laws apply to such personality. If any foreigner is patronizing the place his immunity inures from the diplomatic immunity according to the international conventions we know in Vienna. They can’t claim immunity just because the facility belongs to gays, lesbians, and that kind of thing”.

He shares the view that such avenues are subtle ways of influencing the cultural norms and security of a sovereign society like Ghana with a potential international consequence for the country.

“Ghana has not officially accepted LGBTQ and that kind of thing as an official position that we recognize it as a Human Rights thing, and therefore going further to have this thing established has repercussions not necessarily from government to government level repercussion but the general security implications, when I say security I’m talking about the broad sense security, I mean what is this?” he fumed.

Man arrested for burning girlfriend’s 3 bedroom house at Assin Aworoso

Posted on by Kofi Tutu

Police at Assin Aworoso in the Assin South District of the Central Region have arrested a middle-aged man, for allegedly setting 3-bedroom house being occupied by his girlfriend on fire on Thursday night.

The two lovers, according to the relative are related by blood and that all efforts by the family to get Kofi Bokor to back-off from Sakina have landed on rocks.
