 The Public Relations officer of the Film Producers Association of Ghana (FIPAG), Nana Yaa Serwaa Osei has said movie producer, Abdul Salam Mumuni should provide evidence to support his allegation that the current leadership of the Film Producers Association of Ghana (FIPAG) are only interested in satisfying their pockets and not the industry’s need. Speaking to Ray Charles Marfo on Showbiz Arena on Adehye FM, Nana Yaa Serwaa Osei debunked Abdul Salam’s claims stating that the association has no source of income. “There is no money in our possession. Everyone knows that our members don’t even pay dues every month, we deduct their Audiovisual Society of Ghana (ASOG) money every year to pay their dues. Just ask yourself the amount of the dues; it’s just GHS10 so just imagine the money that FIPAG receives. I don’t know whether Abdul Salam Mumuni is confusing ASOG with FIPAG.” “I can tell you that FIPAG executives are not paid for the work we do. If you ask our memb...

Richard Achampong Sports pundit, Richard Achampong, has stated that there is no enmity among radio presenters in the Kumasi Metropolis as its been speculated. He stated, it's an undeniable fact that they cannot all be friends, but that doesn’t imply they are foes. ”I am not sure that it’s factually correct. We do communicate through other programs, but for example, it is practically unimaginable for a sports presenter of Angel Fm, Fox Fm, Kessben Fm or Nhyira Fm to pass through the programme of these stations, same as Ash Fm, Silver, Otec Fm or New Mercury. But I have visited more stations and talked on their network. It was possible because their programme time did not collide with my own. There is no ill will in the Kumasi Media, it is only a fact that we cannot all be friends.” But a fellow sports   presenter, Opoku Afriyie who works with Fox Fm is of a different opinion. “Presenters in Kumasi are like the Israelites and the Palestinians.   There are...

Opoku Afriyie I interviewed Opoko Afriyie strictly about his profession, family life and the entertainment industry. Sports presenter, Richmond Opoku Afriyie made his name in the media industry when he joined Fox 97.9 with his superb knowledge in Ghana Football. Enjoying a highly successful career both on and off radio, I decided to pick his brain for an in-depth interview, which he gladly obliged with. These are highly sensitive issues that he wouldn’t have spoken about if not the close and harmonious relationship existing between us. Opoki gives us all the exclusives here in our up close & personal interview!  Read on.... Q :   Why the move to Silver Fm? A :   Increase in value, meaning I wanted the bar to be raised. Q :   Did you get that value you wanted at Silver? A :   Why not bro. I received twice at Silver FM what I was receiving at Fox. I was in a chamber and hall apartment at Fox, but had a three bedro...

The general manager for Kapital Radio, Mr. Korsi Asiseh has taken a swipe at former winners of the Radio and Television Personality Awards who are now discrediting the scheme because they failed to win or get nominated. Today at 7:30am, Mr. Asiseh, took to his fcebook timeline and said: “ Isn’t it interesting that when you got the award you were full of praise for the organizers. Today it’s somebody else’s turn and just within the twinkle of an eye the event is not credible and a joke. You guys are funny. To me if RTP was credible to the winners of yesterday it is credible to the winners of today. # simple ” It’s not clear who his post on facebook was directed to but if you could remember; I published an article yesterday where Sir Joe, a sports host on Kessben fm was quoted as saying; " The RTP awards started very well but now it has turned to concert. In fact they have lost their credibility." This is the position of Mr. Asiseh on the just ended RTP Award...

Was Brother Sammy really robbed at his ‘10 bedroom house’?   Here’s why the story isn’t stacking up. It just doesn’t make sense.  There are too many details missing, conflicting, or seemingly fabricated. And now, people are starting to call bullshit on news that Bother Sammy was robbed at his ’10 bedroom house’ this weekend in Kumasi. T his conflicting story was published by Zionfelix.net when he spoke to the musician. Since that point, even more contradictory details have come to light, so I have added few obvious red flags. For those just reading, gospel musician, Brother Sammy has told the media that robbers broke into his house at Abrepo in Kumasi on Sunday, October 29 when he went out to perform at an event. The musician said he returned home Sunday evening around 9pm from the album launch only to meet his  house empty. “When Zionfelix.net asked how they entered the house and stole his properties worth thousands of Ghana cedis, the gospel croo...
