Nana Addo’s Cancer Claim Is False – Doctor

The New Patriotic Party
flagbearer Nana Akufo-Addo has a clean bill of health and has never been diagnosed of cancer or kidney ailment, his personal doctor has clarified. Professor Yaw Adu-Gyamfi contends the Africa Watch magazine’s claims that the former foreign affairs minister is suffering from cancer or kidney problems are malicious
and should be treated with
contempt. He said the three-time
presidential candidate of the
Danquah-Busia-Dombo tradition is fit and could not be moving about campaigning if he had the ailments the magazine claims he is suffering from. The August edition of the Africa Watch magazine suggested that a leaked dossier from the Wellington Hospital in UK which Nana Addo is believed to frequent indicates he is unwell with acute ailments. The magazine in its report mentioned that Akufo-Addo was diagnosed of prostate cancer in June 2013,
with a high prostate – specific Antigen (PSA) count of 89.9, very much above the 3.72 upper range it should have been — according to the British doctors.
However, his personal medical
doctor told Joy FM’s News File show Saturday that the claims are false and without merit. He said Nana Addo was examined in June 2016 and there was no trace of cancer.

My unbridled sex video not real - Lord Paper

The 26-year-old musician Michael Takyi Frimpong alias Lord Paper whose music video circulating on social media has generated public debate says the video rated adult only is not real.
The ‘Awurama’ music video shows the musician naked having sex with a lady amidst hot romance. He debunked claims that he indeed had sex in the video, saying the only thing real is the kissing. Youtube officials pulled down the video after it received complaints from their viewers. But speaking on Abusua FM’s Abusua Entertainment Show hosted by Austin Woode, he explained that the video is
camera tricks and not real sex as
speculated by section of the public. According to him, if he knew the video would generate backlash, he would have censored it before releasing it.

He indicated that his girlfriend who is based outside the country was aware of the making of the video and that the lady in the video Nana Yaa was employed and paid for her services.
‘She is a video victim, I like her looks, I talked to couple of girls who were willing to do but I chose her,’ the rapper explained.
He admitted that he has released over ten songs, but this one has been a hit, saying he was portraying real love making.
‘I agreed with my management to
release the video, I only portrayed
exactly what love making is in the music, the video is rated adult only, it’s a love song, making love with my loved one, I intended to portray exactly that, I didn’t want to hide things, wanted it to look real, but everything in the video is not real, nothing is real, just that we had to make it looked real, we all have different ways of doing things, I didn’t know it will go this far, I don’t know the one who downloaded it from YouTube to twitter and other social media,’ he explained. Asked if he is worried about the public backlash, he explained ‘people have different opinions on issues, in Ghanaian society we don’t really accept these kinds of things, I know
but its art, its music, I wanted to
portray something real’. He said his mother is not happy with
the video but has explained things to her.
