Mahama Or Cheddar Paid Bisa Kdei To Criticize NPP – Nana Romeo
Popular Ghanaian highlife musician Bisa Kdei has recently dropped a track titled “Yenkodi,” which has quickly sparked significant attention and speculation.
Radio personality Nana Romeo of Accra FM claims the song contains sensitive political issues, suggesting that the opposition John Mahama or business magnate Nana Kwame Bediako popularly known as Cheddar might be behind the track as a critique of the current state of the economy.
Nana Romeo made this comments on-air, allerging that the song touches on issues some may view as politically charged.
According to Nana Romeo, “Yenkodi” is a song Bisa Kdei might have been paid to produce. Based on what I’ve heard from multiple sources, I believe this is purely a political song. Nana Romeo stated.
Bisa Kdei who has been transparent about his nonalignment with any political party hasn’t made any comment on this allegation by Nana Romeo.

Tony Amani To Release Highly Anticipated “Here & Now” EP On November 8th
With the spotlight on Ghanaian music getting bigger and brighter, we are getting accustomed to unravelling hidden gems with very refreshing sounds. One of such exciting prospects is Tony Amani, a crooner who is steadily building a cult following with every release.
The Alexandria based Ghanaian-American is currently an independent who has released multiple singles and bagged notable nominations such “US based Uncovered Artist of the year” in 2019. In 2022, Tony was nominated for categories by the US-GMAs and won the “US-based Male Vocalist of the year”. As we gear towards the end of 2024, artists are charging up to put out new material for the festive period and Tony Amani is not looking to be left out.
His two year hiatus comes to an end with the upcoming release of his first ever EP dubbed “Here&Now”. The official artwork for the project shows off the young vocalist in an azure crisp suit, laid back in wooden lounger while looking over his left shoulder.
The title of this impending project vividly depicts the growth of his artistry. The 5 track project is entirely produced by Rythem Style who is a close associate and frequent collaborator.
TRACKLIST
Overdose: The project starts off with “Overdose” which is a word that often reeks of negativity. However in this instance Tony Amani is counting all his blessings and indeed God has showered him abundantly. He expresses his profound gratitude for an overdose of blessings.
Tell Me: Tell Me is reminiscent of early 2000’s RnB melodies but embedded in a fusion of AfroPop and Amapiano. The song opens up with the line “Baby Tell Me Whats Up”. The song is urging a pretty and sexy damsel to open up and confess her feelings for Tony Amani. As the song progresses, the soothing singer paints a vivid picture of how beautiful the lady in focus is through his lyrics.
Fre Me: Fre Me is a phrase from “Akan” a Ghanaian language, and it translates to “Call Me”. Tony Amani wants his better half to know she can call him and count on him whenever she needs him, as he is always readily available to help her out. There’s nothing more a woman would love than a man who is just a phone call away.
Nobody: The fourth song starts off with heavy African themed drums and dwells heavily on an experience most people have endured first hand. When times are tough, people often distance themselves. One of the intriguing lines comes from the infectious chorus of this masterpiece and it goes:
“No one go know you, nobody go follow you”
“When your things aint never poppin, you see nobody clappin”.
Joromi: Joromi is a beautiful composition that is appreciative of a faithful woman who stuck by Tony Amani side when life was tough for him. He reminisces on how he had nothing but his lady never despaired.
Here&Now will be available on all digital streaming platforms on November 8th 2024.

Obuasi Cricket Academy Sets A Historic Breast Cancer Awareness Day
In a remarkable event that blended sportsmanship with a heartfelt cause, the Obuasi Cricket Academy made history by hosting its first-ever Breast Cancer Awareness Day. Held at the Obuasi Cricket Oval on the KNUST Obuasi Campus, this initiative went beyond cricket, championing community solidarity and health awareness. The academy’s efforts captivated the entire Obuasi Municipality, with an impressive turnout of 650 male and female participants who gathered to support the cause, leaving a lasting impression on attendees and spectators alike.
The event began with an energizing health walk, where people from all walks of life joined to support breast cancer awareness. This walk, which aimed to promote physical fitness while symbolizing solidarity with those affected by the disease, was filled with optimism. The sight of hundreds marching for a common cause ignited a sense of unity and hope, making it a powerful opening act for the day’s activities.
Following the walk, attendees were invited to take advantage of free health screenings provided by professional medical practitioners from the Obuasi Government Hospital. The screenings, focusing on breast cancer detection and general health checks, were exceptionally well-received. The involvement of the medical team was deeply appreciated, as they provided crucial services that emphasized the day’s message of health awareness and prevention.
The highlight of the day was the T20 Women’s Bilateral Cricket Match between the Underground Mining Alliance (UMA) Stars and the DIDI Strikers. With the atmosphere charged with excitement, the DIDI Strikers delivered a commanding performance, winning the match by 61 runs. Having won the toss, they chose to field first, and their bowlers dominated the game.
Suglo Patricia set the tone with a stellar bowling performance, claiming 3 wickets for just 10 runs in 3 overs. Emmanuella Abdulai, a rising star from Ghana’s U19 national team, also dazzled, securing 3 wickets in her 3 overs while giving away only 16 runs. Ellen Asante added to the pressure with 1 wicket in 1.1 overs, conceding just 5 runs. Contributions from Richlove and Louisa sealed the UMA Stars’ fate, each taking 1 wicket.
Despite a strong fight from UMA Stars’ captain Kate Awuah, who scored an impressive 17 runs from 29 balls and remained not out, UMA fell short. Kate’s efforts earned her the titles of Best Batter and Player of the Match for her determined performance. Her all-around contributions continued in the second innings, where she took 2 wickets in 3 overs, giving up just 14 runs.
In the end, the DIDI Strikers bowled out the UMA Stars for 60 runs in just 11 overs and comfortably chased down the target, further cementing their dominance. Although the UMA Stars put up a valiant effort, particularly through Emma Abdulai, who was named Best Bowler for her phenomenal 2 wickets and maiden over, the DIDI Strikers proved unstoppable.
As the day drew to a close, the organizers of the Obuasi Cricket Academy expressed deep gratitude for the overwhelming support they received. “We graciously thank the Almighty God for guiding us and making this program a success. Indeed, His favour has been with us from day one,” remarked a representative.
They also extended their thanks to the event’s key sponsors, Underground Mining Alliance and DIDI Foods, whose contributions were pivotal in making the event possible. “May God continue to bless them abundantly for their generosity,” the organizers added.
A special mention was given to Lawrence Ahadzi, the GCA Development Officer, and Andrew Browne from Jamaica, who both served as umpires for the match. Beyond their roles as officials, the duo generously provided water and soft drinks to ensure that everyone stayed hydrated throughout the day. Their dedication and support did not go unnoticed and were highly appreciated by the academy and participants alike.
Gratitude was also extended to additional sponsors, including Syed Aqeel Isar, the Mine Union Workers, and Toni B Drinking Water. Their involvement helped ensure that the event ran smoothly and that participants were well taken care of. The academy expressed its deep appreciation for their invaluable support and looked forward to continued partnerships in the future.
In the closing remarks, the organizers thanked all the players, officials, and participants who made the event a success. “We appreciate everyone who came from near and far to support this initiative. May God guide and protect you on your journeys back home,” they concluded.
The Obuasi Cricket Academy Breast Cancer Awareness Day not only underscored the academy’s commitment to cricket but also showcased its dedication to social causes. This historic event has set a new standard for community engagement in the Obuasi region, and it will be remembered as a milestone in the academy’s growing influence. With more impactful events on the horizon, the academy is well on its way to uplifting both cricket and social awareness in Ghana.
