The One Show

The Talk Program on Viasat One, The One Show, presented by Joselyn Dumas and PY Addo-Boateng has gone through some metamorphoses from the days when Joselyn was handling it alone to the public outcry for the producers to change her through to her taking charge and holding the show down to when PY joined.

Hair At Kenzo's' Got Me Talking!

Driving through Cantonments, I had been seeing this salon whose outlook just made me decide that someday, I would like to walk in there to have a feel of what they offer. Kenzo’s Place, a new salon, spa and barbering shop located off the Ghana International School Road had been on my mind and the moment I stepped in, the experience I came out with made me itchy enough to want to write and tell you all about the experience I got.

This One Is For The One In Love

“This one is for the one in love. And for the one who’s found that one and place' no one above.

Asem and Kwabena, those married and those in relationships, if your love says they cant live with you again, this one is for you” – Into by Asem. 

Kwabena Kwabena

Then Kwbena Kwabena comes in with his usual sultry voice and renders these lines “my Love is leaving me, what should I do? She has showed me her love and I have felt so pampered.

My Love For Manchester United

One evening in 1999, my brothers and their friends were watching a football match between Manchester United and Bayern Munich.

My Very Own Analysis of Our Elections 2012

Following the death of President Attah Mills and the ascension of John Dramani Mahama to the highest office as President of Ghana, I have had quite a number of people ask me how I think the elections will go, considering all that has happened.

In my years on earth and of the four or so democratic elections I have witnessed in my country Ghana so far, my conclusion is this: that Ghana is a wholly NDC(National Democratic Congress) and NPP(New Patriotic Party) Affair. The other parties, well I feel they will not be seen nor heard for a very very long time.

Young Executives Young Entrepreneurs - Kwaku Zee

On Facebook, his name is Bra Kwaku Zee, aka Gals Best Friend. This accolade he keeps up by usually talking about relationships and giving ladies more tit bits to feel empowered. Sometimes he tells them not to ever cry over any man and at other times, he tells them that there is a lot of sexiness in being confident. He posts lots of links to his videos on vimeo.com via Facebook.

Stepping Out In Style

A lot of people have spoken about how to dress and how looking good and wearing the right dresses and outlook can boost ones confidence.

Yet, their confidence levels is nothing to write home about.

It is now relatively easier to be friends with or followers of certain people and to kind of have an interpersonal discussion with them on various issues. However, social media as a marketing tool is still quiet new to majority of people.
