Obour’s ‘good job’ at Ghana Post is just for cameras – Amandzeba
Amandzeba Phiiphi Smyth
Amandzeba Phiiphi Smyth says whatever Obour is doing as the managing director of Ghana Post, is just for show off and not real work.
According to the Ghanaian fashionista and entertainment critic, all that Obour has been showing off on social media as his job at Ghana Post Service is just for the cameras and nothing more.
“This is just for the cameras. Whatever Obour is doing is make-believe. He is standing there with the president in the picture, right? This is called make-believe,” he said.
“I can confidently tell you that ‘VIP’ parcel service is more effective than Ghana Post. Compare the two, and you’ll realize that Ghana Post is not as efficient as portrayed. I sent a laptop to my children in Kumasi via Ghana Post, and it took them one week and three days to deliver it,” he said on Onua FM.
Speaking during an interview with Christian Agyei Frimpong on the Anigye Mmere entertainment and lifestyle show, he added that “I want to be blunt. I’m giving you a clear case of abandoned post offices.
He continued that “an example is Kumasi Brewery. There is a slaughterhouse close by, and cows have taken over the post office even in Obour’s era. Gyakye Pramso and Mampong Nsuta are a few of such post offices”.
Bice Osei Kuffour, popularly known as Obour started work as the Managing Director of the Ghana Post Company this year in January after receiving an appointment by H.E Nana Addo.
As part of his mandate, he is to see to the expansion of the company’s postal network to viable areas and improve service to non-viable areas.

Osanju is dead
Popular Ghanaian content creator, Elvis Frimpong, known in showbiz circles as Osanju has been reported dead.
According to sources, he was said to have died in the early hours on Monday, September 1, 2025 after a long battle with blood cancer (Leukemia)
His death has been a shock in the Ghanaian community especially coming shortly after his last post.
His demise comes five months after he had laid his mother, Amounu, also a tiktoker, to rest, having lost her in January.
Hours before his passing, he had posted a video on Sunday with friends watching the Barcelona vs. Rayo Vallecano match, prompting many fans to initially dismiss the reports as a hoax.
Osanju’s death has been described as a huge loss by followers who admired his openness, resilience and positive outlook in the face of ill health.
However, Osanju had previously shared his battle with leukemia, a cancer of the blood, on his TikTok account, even eerily predicting his own demise on a couple of occasions.
