AFTER<br />
MANY years<br />
of being absent<br />
from<br />
acting, actress<br />
Grace<br />
Omaboe will be on stage at<br />
the National Theatre on<br />
February 14, 2018.<br />
The veteran actress, popularly<br />
known as Maame<br />
Dokono, will be playing a<br />
role in the play ‘Love is Politics.’<br />
She will certainly bring<br />
up nostalgic memories for<br />
anyone who was an ardent<br />
viewer of Ghanaian teleplay<br />
‘By the Fireside.’<br />
Over the years, she has<br />
graced the big screens and<br />
stages with her exceptional<br />
acting abilities but nothing<br />
can be compared to the life<br />
she brought as she sang and<br />
danced while narrating the<br />
events of the folkloric mischievous<br />
character Ananse<br />
on ‘By the Fireside.’<br />
The day dedicated to love<br />
will have the veteran actress<br />
bringing to life the role of a<br />
mother who sends a wife<br />
from the village to her son<br />
who has come off age.<br />
‘Love is Politics,’ a romantic<br />
stage comedy produced<br />
by the 2 Idiots<br />
Productions will also feature<br />
Jeneral Ntatia, Doctor So<br />
and Pearl Korkor Darkey.<br />
The play promises to be<br />
exciting, rib-cracking with a<br />
twist of romance.<br />
Lawyer Ampau’s mum is<br />
pressurizing him to get married<br />
so she sends him a wife<br />
from the village. Lawyer<br />
Ampau tells his houseboy to<br />
pretend to be him when the<br />
girl arrives because he is<br />
busy with a case. The girl<br />
on the other hand is planted<br />
in the house for the selfish<br />
interest of a client to prevent<br />
Lawyer Ampau from<br />
focusing on winning the<br />
case without the knowledge<br />
of the mother.<br />
Will Lawyer Ampau succeed<br />
in winning the case or<br />
he will be blinded by love<br />
and lose this important case<br />
of his life time?<br />
Everybody is in this game<br />
of love for their own selfish<br />
individual purpose.<br />

50 Cent forgot he had a stash of Bitcoin now worth $8m<br />
50 CENT has discovered that he is a Bitcoin<br />
millionaire, thanks to some long-forgotten<br />
album sales.<br />
In 2014, he released the album ‘Animal<br />
Ambition’ and became the first artist to<br />
accept Bitcoin as payment.<br />
The rapper received more than 700<br />
Bitcoins under the deal, but then forgot<br />
about the cryptocurrency, according to<br />
celebrity news site TMZ.<br />
The hoard is worth $7-$8m, although<br />
the currency’s price volatility means that<br />
could change fast.<br />
In 2014, one Bitcoin was equivalent to<br />
about $662, but was worth about $11,200<br />
on Thursday, according to Coindesk.<br />
“Not bad for a kid from South Side,<br />
I’m so proud of me,” 50 Cent – whose<br />
real name is Curtis Jackson – wrote on Instagram,<br />
confirming the news in a post<br />
that featured a screenshot of the TMZ article.<br />
50 Cent also posted a picture of himself<br />
on Instagram surrounded by Bitcoins,<br />
with the caption: “A little Bitcoin<br />
anyone? LOL. l know l make you sick but<br />
excuse me I’m getting to the bag.”<br />
Over the last 12 months, several<br />
celebrities have been paid to promote and<br />
endorse various virtual currencies on social<br />
media. CNN
