Eben Mettle
Accra Technical University (ATU)’s music sensation, Eben Mettle has released a new single titled ‘Faster than Google’ on January 27.
The inspirational song is currently doing well on all digital platforms, with the young talent looking forward to making huge waves within the gospel music industry.
The Qodesh hit maker told The Spectator Agoro in an interview that, the new song was to advise the public to rely on God for solutions to their problems instead of the internet.
“It is time we make the world understand that God never created the internet to replace himself. He is faster than Google and any other internet search engine,” he stated.
The talented songwriter and singer, real name Ebenezer Mettle Lanyo said, “God has the answer to all problems and should be reached at any point in time.
“I have been through a lot as a child but has managed to go through those challenges with the help of God. That means God answers prayers and can do same for everyone,” he added.
With reference to Ephesians 5:16- 17, “redeeming the time for the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is,” he said, it was better to seek answers from God at all times.
The 21-year-old student said his ministry would be used to ‘strengthen’ people and give them reasons to move beyond their challenges.
He said, he would soon release a 10-track album which would take the gospel industry by storm with very inspiration and powerful tunes.

Miss Tourism Ghana contestants battle out on Debate and Culture Night

It was a night of intellect, eloquence and culture as contestants of the 2026 Miss Tourism Ghana took centre stage at the Coconut Grove Regency Hotel for the Debate and Culture Night last Saturday.
The event, which forms part of activities leading up to the grand finale, saw the ladies move beyond beauty to battle with ideas, facts and opinions on a topic critical to the tourism industry.
The contestants debated the topic: The Importance of Traditional and Digital Media on Promotion of Tourism.
For the debate, the contestants were grouped into two teams of four, each tasked with defending a side of the argument.
It was a fierce but respectful exchange. The team arguing for traditional media described it as the trust builder, emphasising its credibility, mass reach, and its power to tell in-depth, emotional stories through television documentaries, radio and newspaper features.
They argued that traditional media still shapes public opinion and influences policy decisions in the tourism sector.
On the other side, the proponents of digital media raised salient points about its unmatched advantages in the modern era.
They highlighted its global reach at low cost, its two-way interaction that allows tourists to share real experiences and reviews, its ability to target specific audiences, and its measurable results where clicks, views and bookings can be tracked.
After heated arguments and rebuttals, both teams arrived at a powerful consensus that drew applause from the audience.
They concluded that without traditional media, tourism promotion lacks credibility and depth, and without digital media, it lacks reach, engagement and sales.
The judges and patrons agreed that the debate underscored a crucial lesson for Ghana’s tourism drive: for a country blessed with rich cultural heritage, colourful festivals, historic forts and castles, diverse wildlife and pristine beaches, the winning formula lies in combining the storytelling power of traditional media with the viral power of digital media to attract both domestic and international tourists.
The night was not only about debate, as the contestants also dazzled in cultural wear, showcasing the beauty and diversity of Ghanaian culture.
