I WAS HEARTBROKEN WHEN PEOPLE TAGGED ME WITH HIV – Moesha Buduong

0 184

Actress Moesha Buduong has revealed that one of the attacks which affected her most was claims she was an HIV career after rumors were rife she had slept unprotected with Shatta Wale‘s godfather, one Mr. Aik Livingstone Abani who was also said to be HIV positive in return for a huge cash.

Though she will not confirm or deny if both were in a relationship sparking that wild rumor, she simply revealed to Nana Romeo on Accra FM’s mid-morning that it was one of her low moments even though she was aware the claims were untrue.

In February last month, there were reports on some social media platforms indicating that the man in question allegedly sleeps with young ladies and gives them huge money.

The reports added that the man is an alleged carrier of HIV/AIDS and has been spreading it by having unprotected sex with women who he gives huge sums of money to after the sexual act.

In the report, Moesha was mentioned to have taken hundred thousand cedis from the man the first day she met him.

Reacting to the reports, Moesha expressed shock as to why why people will want to destroy the man because of his success he has chalked in his life.

Subsequently the man personally came out to debunk the claims challenging anyone who holds a contrary view to put it out with evidence or have him to contend with in the law courts.

NO POLITICAL PARTY CAN DO WITHOUT CELEBRITIES – John Dumelo 

0 175

Actor John Dumelo has reacted to a statement made by the former deputy general secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress party, Koku Anyidoho concerning the limitations of celebrities in the upcoming political campaigns.

In an interview with Vibes in 5, the award-winning actor said no political party can do without celebrities because they [celebrities] play a major role in every political party campaign.

“Celebrities played a major role in both the NDC and the NPP campaign. I mean NPP went for celebrities NDC went for celebrities and I think to some extent celebrities actually influence the outcome of campaigns. But at the end of the day, I don’t think political parties can do away with celebrities. I don’t think so,” John Dumelo said.

Commenting on Koku’s statement about the party’s position of not engaging fair-weather celebrities and splinter groups in the upcoming general elections ahead of 2020, Dumelo indicated that he personally had not heard any news of the sort but he did a follow up through an associate by making enquiries concerning the exact words that were spoken, by Party member Mr. Koku Anyidoho.

“When I first heard the story I spoke to a colleague who was there and he said no, Koku never mentioned the word celebrities. I think he said strangers.

“I don’t think he necessarily said celebrities. It would be hard for me to comment if I haven’t heard him say or mention celebrities.

“For him, he can define strangers in a different way, so I don’t know what he meant by strangers. Strangers could have been even people in the party NDC that he thought they were strangers or it could even be outsiders that he thought they were strangers,” Dumelo indicated.

In Ghana, celebrity endorsement rises with each passing general election. Their endorsements have reached a height where celebrities now form networks and groups to promote their choice of candidates. Whilst some are on the side of the biggest opposition NDC many others are for the ruling NPP.

The NDC’s Presidential candidate, John Dramani Mahama was endorsed by Abeiku Santana, John Dumelo, Mr. Beautiful, Kalsum Sinare, Amanzeba, Bull Dog, Papa Nii, Rex Omar, Belinda Akua Amoah (MzBel), Paapa Yankson and others during the 2016 elections.

On the other hand, individuals like Okraku Mantey, Daddy Lumba, Wisa, Kwabena Kwabena, Sidney, Socrates Sarfo, Matilda Asare, A-Plus, Kwaw Kesse, Cwesi Oteng, Great Ampong, Nana Ampadu, Leo Mensah, Maame Dokono etc. together with groups like Agya Koo agenda 57 for Nana Addo, all solidly behind the NPP’s Nana Akuffo-Addo.

I WILL NEVER DENY MY FUTURE HUSBAND ANAL SEX – Vicky Zugah

0 153

Actress Vicky Zugah has said that she won’t hesitate to engage in anal sex with her future husband if that is what it takes to save her marriage.

Vicky, who was speaking about anal sex in marriage on the new season of Purple Room with Akua Amoakowaa on Angel TV, claimed that anal sex plays an important role in saving some marriages.

She will, therefore, gladly give in to her future husband if he demands for it.

The actress, however, denied ever having anal sex in the past despite earlier reports allegeing “she loves anal sex.”

“I have personally never had anal sex before. There was a time I was misconstrued on an interview I granted about anal sex. We were talking about oral sex and the host asked a question about anal sex but I wasn’t smart to know he changed the topic to anal sex and I said yes. So it was all over the place that I said I like anal sex. But before God and man, I have never tried anal sex before,” she revealed.

 “Probably in the future with my husband but I haven’t done it yet. Probably because with you and your husband, you can never say never. People have their different ways to satisfy their sexual desire in marriage. So you can never say never,” she added.

Purple Room is one of the few shows on Ghanaian TV which help viewers solve various issues, including those in marriage.Vicky was on the show on Wednesday with fellow actor Timothy Bentum, who kicked against her stand on anal sex. He said it is not  healthy to engage in anal sex and advised couples to stay away from it.
