When Teshie United ( Homowo 2015 )

When Teshie United,

Chaosity ceased

Because we all became Kings and Queens

Enemies held hands to throw their weight behind one group

Men wore female clothing

And women tore all garments of enmity

There was nothing aside love in the air

Hands were joined 

Prayer were said

Old friends met

And the old and young became one

So when Teshie United

Religion lost it's place

Alhaji Ibrahim hugged Pastor Harry

Humanity won

Cos Nii Wulomo shared his calabash of water with Daavi Ajo

So Teshie United

And even though I was sick

I hustled my way through the crowd

Just so i could steal this shots

So i can announce to the world that,
Teshie Has United  !!

 

And they Sung !!

Just like they have done in previous weeks, the Vision Inspired Music ( VIMusic ) Crew stormed the Piano Bar last Sunday with a " creme de la creme " of their acts and Oh mine !, this guys can sing.. They sung and kept all who were present there till almost midnight with everyone wanting more of them... They brought in acts like Robin, Reynolds, Fofo and Delories who took turns to bless the mic with each of them taking the tempo higher and higher... They were ably supported by in house acts like Kobby and Nene... The main act of the night Adomaa didn't did her thing as always, keeping all who came glued to their seats.. 

There was an open mic session where Myself, Hashmullah got to the bless the mic with a poem titled " My Ghana Girl " and then later an acoustic cover of Rekaado Bank's Katopot ...  Below are some photos I got from the night, hope you enjoy and if you really do, then make it a point to be at the Piano Bar next Sunday cos I believe there would be more of this ... Have a blessed week and please stay out of trouble....

Adei : Before And After A Battle With Hunger

This is Adei, my pretty little niece... I know she'd make a good model in future but as it stands now, she's not the happiest in one photo and all smiles in the other... That how we all look before and after we've settled our debts with hunger... Hope You Love my Adei too !

A Photo Session with " Model Adjeley "

She's the youngest among all my cousins, the most feared and most respected too.. She is also errrrm kinda troublesome but you know the kinda trouble that's lovely, that's the kind she gives... I was supposed to be someone she feared but it ended up being the direct opposite, I fear and respect her and i expect same from everyone that comes around her, you can't mess with my "Adjeley", no way! She is my modern day " Yaa Asantewaa "... With just one sound of her cry, all her enemies bow... 

On this day, I begged to have a shoot with her and as usual, she wouldn't do anything for me without taking a bribe, yes, not even a handshake... So i bribed her with a whooping GhP 110.. Yeah, 110 Ghana Pesewas and voila ! it did the trick for me !! Hope you would enjoy the photos and pls, don't pass any comment if you don't like anything cos she might get upset, just post nice things even if you don't want to

My ChaleWote 2015 in Pictures

I got to ChaleWote 2015 late but that didn't stop me from doing what I love, I went ahead to get some shots and I hope you've love them !! 

Kindly Share

Atsu and Atsupi

This is Atsu and Atsupi and just like Panyin and Kakra in Twi/Fanti, this is how Ewe's call twins !! They are twins born on the same day but not identical and also of different sex.. This tells how God can do the same thing from different points of views... I took this photos of them months ago and even though they are walking now, I just decided to share the blessing today !

Cats and Chicken

Most of the times, you get me taking shots of stuff that really doesn't matter to you, but it really does to me...

 As a photographer and a creative person, i find beauty in a whole lot of stuff, one of them being the photos below... 

I just visited a friend one Sunday and while waiting for him outside His room, i saw this cats and fowls, don't know what i thought at that moment but i saw beauty in them, hope you see same ! 

#Enjoy and kindly share

BUKOM POWERS

BUKOM POWERS 

Thoughts of the Judgment Day from old has kept dropping chills down  

our spines 

But this day would always be remembered as one of the greatest of our time 

With their destinies in their own hands 

They talked and bragged, but finally thrilled our nights till we had enough of  

their boring fun  

Tales of great bouts have been told from old Ali, Tyson, Nelson and even Angel Firpo Never did we expect a locally made international fight from Bukoom But it happened live, Yes it did, even though I watched it from Home    

A bout not for a titles but bragging right A bout with the highest TV viewership on the night A local bout that had the highest social media trends And a bout just between two Bukoom Friends    

Banku stood tall against Powers Proving to us all that the energy from the dough could render all powers powerless Ayittey on the other hand just made us smiles in anxiety with His pretty scary look So bad it had no impact on the bout,cos He couldn't stand Braima boot for book 

Bukom, Powers is a Prostitution  
Powers, Bukom spell Congratulation  
So what can come can come  
Now what can come has come !

BOOKS ARE OUR ARMS

 

 

 

 

They gracefully call themselves Boko Haram 
Killing and Kidnapping all in the name of Propagating the Prophet's Teachings 
Shocked they keep doing this not armed with arrows and bows but Guns 
But are still proud to come out and say Western education is Sin 
 

 Boko Haram is nothing but Cowards with Guns Propagating none of the Prophets teaching, just promoting their devilish plans Know that in all your doings, Allah is King and remains the Only One So stop dividing where there's Unity and adding pain where there's None   

Boko Haram, to fight you, we'd use education and not Guns Boko Haram, God and Man against you now and that's two strikes against one Boko Haram, to wage war against other religions, use the Holy Book and not arms Books are our Arms, so we'd use books and not Guns  

I HAVE WRITTEN A POEM

I HAVE WRITTEN A POEM 

I have written a poem  

Bourne out of the deepest core of my reality 

A poem written out of fear 

Fear suffered out of pain 

Pain as a result of a bitter past 

I have written a poem of how the African gracefully broke the chains of slavery  

And also a poem of how even in independence, the African survives on Charity 

This poem I wrote  

Holds the keys to a doors of hope for a better tomorrow  

A tomorrow who's yesterday is today 

A today filled with blurred visions 

Blurred visions of a tomorrows of hope 

This poem would make a difference  

This poem would change the sequence 

This poem would ignite resistance  

But this poem wouldn't breed disobedience  

So don't think its all fashion when you see my eyes locked 24/7 behind shades 

Because it might just be my own way of hiding my vision from the lights of shattered dreams 

The dreams of yesterdays hope 

A hope still being hoped against hopes of tomorrow 

But until then, I just have a dream 

A dream achieved fully in writing 

So I have written a poem 

And this is the poem I wrote 

...

THE MODERN DAY CHRISTIAN

THE MODERN DAY CHRISTIAN 

I am a Christian 

An upgraded version of You 

I am the cleanest 

Soaked and washed with His Blood 

I do no wrong  

Cos I have Christ in me 

These are your confessions 

But little or none of the above are seen in your Actions 

Sorry, 

For I choose to be different 

And you can label me ancient 

I won't be your type of Christian 

Who's only bit Christianity in seen when seen when in the midst of fellow men 

Accepting every bit blessing from the preacher  

But speaks curses even in the presence of the Divine Healer 

Call me a boring Christian 

And I'd smile, coz to me, your Christianity is like a dead lion in chains 

Just like a labourer working in vain 

Aggressive but faithless  

Heaven bound with a blurred vision 

You fed me when I was hungry 

And to the public, U told my sorry story 

I won't be that Christian who'd only smile to sermons on success 

And frown at those hitting on spiritual and physical progress 

You expect greater works 

Even after confessing with thy mouth destructive Words 

I won't be your type of Christian who has a problem when it comes to giving  

But is the quickest to should Amen and I Receive it to prophesies on receiving 

Serving God in your Modern way still remains a give and take affair 

Praise him and have all your burdens erased 

Fast, coz that's the only way to get your rewards faster 

Worship, and you'd have your spiritual warship activated  

Breast fed Christian with bone cracking teeth 

That is all we are 

All we seek to be 

And all we'd been led to become 

The modern day Christian
