Marriage counsellor Rev Mrs Charlotte Oduro has shared her thoughts on sex toys and their impact on marriage and relationships. Speaking to Kwaku Manu in an interview, Rev Mrs Charlotte expressed her distaste for couples who use sex toys before, during and after sexual intercourse. According to her, using sex toys promotes cheating. “We have promoted certain things and allowed them permanency, which is destroying us. So today, after someone has slept with his wife, they still have to use a sex toy before they climax. “Please, I’m not here to rubbish anyone’s hustle. But as a Christain and a whole woman, when God created me he didn’t add any toy to me. Ask yourself, If you have to use sex toys when you are fit, what will happen when you are unfit to perform?” She confirmed the host’s submissions that using sex toys creates an avenue for women to explore options outside their spouses. “You are teaching her to cheat because you are making her aware that if she can use a toy to cheat, then...

  Sources:citinews The Head of FICC Research and Chief Economist at ABSA; Jeff Gable, says the consistent introduction of subsidies in the midst of global economic challenges will only prolong the effects of inflation in that country. According to him, governments in Africa must rather focus on slowing down demand for products rather than subsidizing the cost. Speaking at Citi TV and ISSER’s Cedi Summit in Accra on Monday, Jeff Gable said the drive to subsidize the cost of products in developing economies is forcing governments to use funds reserved for social and economic development to subsidize prices of goods. Mr. Gable suggested that some subsidies however remain important as part of the strategies to address inflation challenges.   “[In Nigeria for instance] almost all of the Federal Government’s funds that are to be set aside to pay for new hospitals, schools, construct roads and energy infrastructure is used to subsidize petrol… Prices are high because the demand for t...

Source: Lawrence Segbefia      The Poultry Farmers Association of Ghana is appealing to government to increase the compensation given to farmers whose birds are affected by Bird Flu. As part of measures to curb the disease from spreading, the Ministry of Food and Agriculture and the Veterinary Services Department are mandated to kill and properly dispose off infected birds, after which farmers will be compensated with ₵30 per bird. Speaking to Joy Business, the Vice President of the Greater Accra Poultry Farmers Association of Ghana, Kwame Ntim Duodu lamented that it takes farmers an average cost of ₵60 cedis to keep a single bird, hence the ₵30 is woefully inadequate. “A poultry farmer can spend about ₵60 to keep a bird. This includes feeding, electricity and chemicals. If the bird is affected by a flu and you say you want to give the farmer ₵30 to kill and bury the bird, the farmer is losing,” he said. He stated that the money is woefully inadequate and will not he...
