Praise Bonney in a worship mood
Gospel music lovers that thronged the House of Faith Ministries in Kumasi On Sunday, September 24, for the live gospel music recording at Closer and Deeper (C&D) Experience were thrilled to an unforgettable night of worship and adoration.
They enjoyed spirit-filled ministrations from gospel ministers from the host, Antwi Bonney with stage name, Praise Bonney as well as other performers including Pastor Alfred
Owusu Sekyere, Yaw Boadu Junior, Pastor Sammie Obeng- Poku, Pastor Isaiah Fosu Kwakye, Reverend Mrs Theresa Nyamekye and the music group Reminant Choir.
Patrons were in awe as the presence of God was strongly felt during the ministrations from all artistes who were slated for the live recording.
Praise Bonney recorded his new songs, yet to be unboxed.
On stage, he invited his colleagues Yaw Boadu and Sunyani-based gospel singer Joachim Nyame-Eshun to feature on two of his songs.
The students of Asanteman Senior High School also showed up in their numbers to support the artiste Praise Bonney.
Consequently, the purpose for the show was fulfilled as many souls were won on the night.
In her sermon, Reverend Mrs Esther Nyamekye shared a deep heartfelt message on salvation and followed by an alter call.
Praise Bonney said he was overwhelmed by the number of people that showed up to join him celebrate the savior Jesus Christ.
Praise Bonney told The Spectator that, growing up in the Lord, he realised that the pivotal point of his life in Christ was centred on a strong passion for lost souls and drawing many to the fountain of life, which is Jesus Christ.
“My ministry and songs are inspired by how Christ left all His glory in Heaven just to die this shameful death in my place. I really acknowledge the Holy Spirit who makes it easy and possible for us to access the presence of God at a click”, he said.

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.
