    How Efia Odo trains her guy to control himself while she sleeps n*ked all night

    Television personality Efia Odo, has revealed that she is capable of dating a guy and not have sex with him for months.

    She told 3FM that she can lay on the same bed naked with a guy and not have sexual intercourse with that person.

    The actress said she trained her guy to be able to control his manhood even when there is an increased urge to have sex.

    When Govanni asked her whether she is going out with someone, Efia Odo answered “I go out but I do not have sex. I can be with a guy and lay on bed with him naked and not have sex with him.

    “This is like I am training you to respect your dick,” she added.

    Touching on her friendship with Shatta Wale, she said the award-winning dancehall artiste has been inspirational to her.

    “I gain a lot of knowledge from him,” she said, adding that “he has influenced me a lot of other things, he opened my mind to a lot of things.

    “Shatta is a brother and I always say he is, my best friend.”

    She further noted that there are a lot of people who may be having psychological problems, and so she said she is taking steps to establish a psychiatric hospital to assist these people.

    “Eventually, I would love to open my own psychiatric facility helping people who are mentally disabled and I just love to help those who can’t help themselves. I just have empathy,” she said.

  • Kofi Kinaata Reveals why he didn’t show up at the #VGMA21

    Kofi Kinaata Reveals why he didn’t show up at the #VGMA21

    Yesterday saw the end of the first session of the two-day Vodafone Music Awards (VGMA) Event.

    The event saw performance from a lot of notable artistes. Although the event had an entirely different approach this time around, it was very entertaining. The event saw Takoradi artiste, Kofi Kinaata make history as he became the first artiste to win the ‘Songwriter of the year award’ thrice.

    The young highlife sensation is admired by both the the young and old due to his unique style of music which is very deep and inspiring.

    In spite of making history, the ‘Behind The Scenes’ hitmaker failed to turn up at the event.

    He has however taken to twitter to apologize to the event organizers for not being able to grace the occasion. Taking to twitter, he wrote

    Apologies to TV3, the VGMA and everyone for not showing up at both the interview and the show last night. Went through a lot yesterday but I’m okay now. Benin beans is NOT from God! Repeat after me.

    It is this controversial tweet that has gotten a lot of people to be worried about the history maker. The last part of the tweet  said;

    Benin beans is NOT from God! Repeat after me…

    The word Benin on social media has recently been attributed to spiritual powers as the West Africa country is noted to be home of African spiritual powers.  This might mean that the highlife sensation was probably talking about spiritual attack.

    KK Fosu Apologies for Substandard Performance at the #VGMA21

    Legendary Highlife muscian KK Fosu has apologised to fans for his substandard performance at last night Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA).

    KK Fosu wrote this on his social media page:

    Hello Team, family & well wishers, i’m here to address an issue which I believe are of much importance to the general public and particularly for Charter house, organizers of VGMA.

    “On Tuesday, 25th August 2020, I led a “No Good Roads No Vote Demonstration” at my hometown “Mangoase” and it’s environs which attracted thousands of people in the area.

    “Unfortunately I lost my voice and that subsequently made me struggle with my voice thus taking a toll on my performance at last night VGMA.

    “I am sorry and apologise for the soo many expectations that were not met. I thank you all a lot for believing in me and I appreciate your support from time immemorial.

    Such thing we pray won’t happen again.
    Thank you.
    Am still your Vocalgod.”

  • “Pastors Are Not Doctors, They Have No Power to Heal The Sick” – Efia Odo Explains

    “Pastors Are Not Doctors, They Have No Power to Heal The Sick” – Efia Odo Explains

    Socialite Efia Odo believes pastors and preachers, in general, do not have any supernatural power as people perceive to heal the sick and restore their health.

    According to her, these pastors are just as natural mortal human beings like any other person thus they must not be seen as doctors who are tasked to heal people of their ailments.

    Efia Odo in a Twitter post bemoaned the quantum of trust some people have reposed in pastors with the baseless belief that they have the power of God to save the sick from dying.

    Her comment comes on the back of a woman she claims died in her neighbourhood due to negligence and her decision to entrust her health into the hands of a pastor.

    “If you or someone in your family falls sick, DO NOT TAKE THEM TO A PASTOR BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE THE CAPACITY TO “HEAL”. Pastors can not heal because they are humans with no super natural powers. A woman in my hood just died due to negligence”

    However, comments she has received as far as this view is concerned do not seem to entirely agree with her point of view. Many still believe God has the power to heal the sick and has deposited that power in pastors.

    BREAKING: Black Panther Star, Chadwick Boseman Dies At Age 43

    Actor Chadwick Boseman, who played black icons Jackie Robinson and James Brown before finding fame as the regal Black Panther in the Marvel cinematic universe, has died of cancer, his representative said. He was 43.

    Boseman died at his home in the Los Angeles area with his wife and family by his side, his publicist Nicki Fioravante said on Friday.

    Boseman was diagnosed with colon cancer four years ago, his family said in a statement. Black Panther’s Chadwick Boseman: ‘Everybody’s minds are opening up’

    “A true fighter, Chadwick persevered through it all, and brought you many of the films you have come to love so much,” his family said.

    “From Marshall to Da 5 Bloods, August Wilsons Ma Raineys Black Bottom and several more – all were filmed during and between countless surgeries and chemotherapy. It was the honour of his career to bring King TChalla to life in Black Panther.”

    Boseman had not spoken publicly about his diagnosis. It is believed he married his long-term partner, the singer Taylor Simon Ledward, earlier this year. The couple had no children.

    Boseman paid tribute to Ledward in his acceptance speech at the 2019 NAACP Image Awards in Los Angeles, where he won the trophy for outstanding actor in a motion picture. He said: “Simone, you’re with me every day. I have to acknowledge you right now. Love you.”

I even discuss it with my colleagues when I go to school,” she revealed.

They both did not give me the attention I needed,” she added.
