B.Chelsea supporters only lifted referee Liman, he wasn’t beaten, says Nketiah

 

The Blues chief has refuted claims that referee Nuhu Liman was mercilessly beaten by the home supporters leading to his collapse

Berekum Chelsea chief executive officer Nana Kwame Nketiah has denied reports that referee Nuhu Liman was beating by the club’s supporters following the 1-1 draw against Dreams FC at the Golden City Park on Sunday.

Samuel Bimpong got the opener for Dreams before Stephen Amankona snatched the equaliser very late in the game, to deny Dreams two wins in a row.

And according to several sources, the referee was mercilessly manhandled and collapsed in the process but the Chelsea chief says it is purely a fiction.

“It is true that our supporters rushed towards where the referee (Nuhu Liman) was after the game but he fell in the process without anyone everything touching him,” Nketiah told Oyerepa FM.

“After that thing happened, I asked the supporters to lift him and they did just that without any hesitation. Although, they were angry, ref Nuhu Liman was never beaten and I’m not in the known where these false allegations are coming from.

“Before the start of the season, I heard that some people wanted to protect some clubs ahead of the others because their owners are super rich. I am investigating this allegations and should it turn out to be true, I promise there will be fireworks since we’re all investing our respective club’s, ” he added.

Referee Liman has always been in controversies as he was handed an indefinite suspension last season by Ghana FA, following a dubious penalty he awarded Asante Kotoko in the FA Cup quarterfinals game against Nea Salamina and only returned last weekend.

Chelsea currently sit 11th on the log with one point while Dreams have moved to fourth with four points.

Edem predicts chaos following Shatta Wale-Stonebwoy’s new ‘beef’

The Ayigbe rapper has advised the two camps to end the new beef which is gradually gain grounds else one may get hurt as a result

Hiplife artist Edem has insisted that Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy must end their recent beef since signs show the future will not be good for the two camps as a result.

Stonebwoy challenged Shatta Wale to engage him in a lyrical battle battle and the latter used that opportunity to rain insults on the BhimNative president.

Although, fans of Stonebwoy did not like the diction in Shatta Wale’s reply, the latter’s fans insist Stonebwoy did same to him on Snapchat

“I tweeted yesterday that very soon someone might get hurt over this beefs. Let’s note that the more we go at each other’s throat the more relevant we become,” Edem told Starr Fm

“I don’t think Stonebwoy and Shatta are making the game stale. I would blame the corporate people for being hypocritical about these issues. When something is not curbed, it would definitely get to a point where there is no limits.

“I think to some extent Zylofon is the only label. I think it would just be right to say any label here is a developing label,” he added.

Both Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy have been nominated for the 2018 Ghana Music Awards, alongside Sarkodie, Joe Mettle and Ebony.

Charterhouse didn’t breach any law to engage Stonebwoy for VGMA nominee jam, says Quaye

Charterhouse didn’t breach any law to engage Stonebwoy for VGMA nominee jam, says Quaye

Charterhouse, organizers of the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards, has fended off allegations that it engaged the services of Stonebwoy without the consent of Zylofon Media.

After Charterhouse advertised Stonebwoy as one of the acts billed to perform on the night of the Nominees Jam of the awards, reports emerged that the BET Award winner was not going to be attending the event.

This was as a result of concerns Stonebwoy’s record label, Zylofon Media had raised. The label accused Charterhouse of engaging Stonebwoy without their permission, though they had cautioned against such business deals in a communiqué released on March 13 this year.

In a letter that circulated on social media, Kwame Akuffo and Co Unlimited demanded that Charterhouse confirms to their clients (Zylofon Media) if the firm had truly engaged the services of Stonebwoy without the appropriate consent.

However, Head of Communications of Charterhouse, George Quaye on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM with Andy Dosty, insisted, the event organising firm did not err in the process of booking Stonebwoy.

At “Charterhouse, we believe we did what we believe was the right thing to do. We did not violate any regulations,” he explained.

He explained Charterhouse followed already existing procedures in getting the musician and expected that the appropriate persons in his camp would follow the other right procedures.

“If it’s an artiste you’ve worked with in times past, and you already have an existing procedure, you’ll embark on that existing procedure to do it,” George Quaye explained.

He said, even though Stonebwoy’s management had previously said he wouldn’t be available anymore, (an action believed to be as a result of the booking controversy), they later confirmed to Charterhouse, Stonebwoy will be gracing the stage this weekend in Cape Coast.
