Could reggae musician and erstwhile comedian David Oscar be a father now?

The Management of Freedom Family Entertainment has debunked reports circulating on social media that Ghanaian music Maestro, Kojo Antwi, has passed on in Germany. A statement by the management of the legend musician called on Music lovers to disregard the reports. According to Mr. Ransford Antwi, who represents the Ghanaian music Maestro, "Kojo is fine and he's in Ghana. He hasn't traveled to Germany as the story sought to portray. It's disgusting how anyone would want his fellow human being dead for no reason. Knowing that what you're putting out there is untrue and going ahead to do it is crazy, to say the least." He further warned those behind such fake stories to desist from that, as such stuff portray social media in a negative light. He also thanked all those who have called to verify the authenticity of the story and reassured Ghanaians that the veteran musician is in great shape.

Minutes after the Electoral Commissioner, Madam Charlotte Osei declared the elections and announced Nana Addo Danquah Akufo Addo as the President-Elect, the country has risen to a moment of gargantuan joy especially party faithfuls of the winning party, The New Patriotic Party (N.P.P). With the ongoing jubilation, the King of GhComedy DKB has called on people of the winning party to desist from teasing or mocking those of the losing party because that can be a precursor to stir up chaos. "Why I am saying people should desist from teasing or mocking is that, in the cause of jubilation, people may be tempted to use words which would anger those of the losing side and this could easily stir up chaos. Any post electoral violence starts from verbal provocation. So what I want to tell people is, you can jubilate, but shy away from mocking those of losing side, This is my little concern and I hope people won't take this for granted." he said.
