Among the many notable female politicians who have taken to social media to mark the big day include First Lady Rebecca Akufo-Addo who took to Facebook to celebrate mothers.

Her post read: ““I AM WHO I AM, BECAUSE OF MAMA ” is a common sentiment among Ghanaian children.

And they are right: the stories that follow are stories of bold sacrifices and pain; of mysterious love and investments.

I believe celebrating mothers would never go out of date. After all, there is constant need of their bountiful supply of prayers, even in one’s old age.

A mother’s love , A Mother’s Prayer, A Mother’s Faith, A mother’s Counsel, A Mother’s Touch.
As I reflect on these, one message is clear: We love them, because they first, loved us.

Angels in the shape of mothers – May we continue to thank them, may we continue to love and adore them, may we be like them. Happy Mothers’ Day!”

Second Lady Samira Bawumia also marked the day with a message which read: “Happy Mothers’ Day to all our amazing women out there.”

Former First Lady Madam Lordina Mahama also wrote: “#HappymothersdayIt is another opportunity to celebrate and honour our cherished mothers. I celebrate the hardworking and selfless Matrons and Staff of orphanages across the country. They have dedicated their lives to nurturing and caring for the young ones in their care. Let me also appreciate the female frontline workers who have fearlessly been at the forefront of the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. I must also celebrate all single mothers, single fathers and guardians performing the role of mothers. Continue your good works and know that your hardwork will never go unrewarded. God bless you all. Happy Mothers Day!Lordina Dramani MahamaFormer First Lady & President, Lordina Foundation.”

Ghanaian musician Jehoshaphat Kwabena Eshun famed as Skrewfaze has recounted how a popular Ghanaian DJ of a radio station said he was never going to play Gbalagazaa because it was a useless song.

While speaking in an interview with DJ Master P in an exclusive Facebook Live interview, Skrewfaze said when he released Gbalagazaa, he was taking it round to radio stations to get them to play it.

He said when he got to a particular radio station, the DJ told him he was not going to play the song because he did not expect such a song from Skrewfaze.

According to the DJ the genre of music that was in vogue at the time was Crank Music so he was wondering how Gbalagazaa was going to compete with such songs

Skrewfaze said he then called DJ Lalu who was a student in GIJ by then and met up with him to give him the Gbalagazaa CD.

The Labadi hitmaker said after listening to the song, DJ Lalu was impressed and asked him to give him 2 months to promote the song for him.

DJ Lalu made a promise and said if the song did not go viral after the 2 months, he was going to personally pay back all the money Skrewfaze spent on the song back to him.

According to Skrewfaze, true to DJ Lalu’s words, Gbalagazaa grew to become a hit and it landed him his first international gig in Equatorial Guinea where he performed with the likes of Kofi Nti and Barima Sydney.

Skrewfaze revealed that it was a 3-day performance which saw him linking up with other African stars like Freddy Meiway and DJ Arafat.
