Renowned Ghanaian actor, Prince David Osei has waded into the ongoing rift between actress Yvonne Nelson and rapper Sarkodie.

The actress, in chapter eight of her memoir, I AM NOT YVONNE NELSON revealed an abortion she had in 2010 after being impregnated by Sarkodie.

In the memoir, Yvonne Nelson indicated that she aborted the baby following the instructions of Sarkodie who said he was not ready to father the child at the time.

Against this backdrop, the musician yesterday released a song dubbed “Try Me” aimed at addressing the matter by telling his side of the story.

The song received mixed reactions from music lovers, whereas a section of music lovers praised Sarkodie’s dexterity and going hard at Yvonne Nelson, others have said the lyrics were derogatory to womanhood.

In a tweet to express his displeasure, Prince David Osei stated “Childish Tantrums!! Never let the kid in you destroy the king in you … Whoever sleeps with a woman gets her pregnant and doesn’t own up as a man and goes about labeling her “Whore” is the dumbest asshole ever ..”

He went on to add, “She was a “Whore” yet you shagged her unprotected and got her pregnant!! God have mercy on those supporting tomfoolery!! #respectwome.”

The award-winning actor noted that “It’s about respecting and valuing the women we have been intimate with in the past. It’s never okay to use derogatory terms or make someone feel embarrassed for something as natural as intimacy.”

After a show-stopping run on stage, Fiifi Coleman Productions is taking ‘I Told You So’ to the big screen.

This follows a successful roadshow tour across Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi and Cape Coast.

The final leg saw Cape Coast come alive on September 4 and 5, as Fiifi Coleman Productions staged a breathtaking rendition of the Bob Cole classic at the Centre for National Culture (CNC).

Patrons showed up in extraordinary numbers, filling the auditorium with energy, laughter, nostalgia and deep cultural pride. Over the two-night run, the production drew more than 2,000 patrons, making the showcase, dubbed The Afahye Experience, one of the most memorable highlights of the festival season.

Speaking to the media in an interview on Monday, September 7, Fiifi Coleman said the adaptation seeks to protect Ghana’s cultural heritage and history.

According to him, the storyline remains relevant in today’s society and the current generation has lessons to learn from it.

“The movie takes you through family responsibility, and who has the right in the family when it comes to marriage, the father or uncle?” he quizzed.

He noted that in recent times families often shelve the need to conduct necessary background checks before marriage, adding that ‘I Told You So’ brings all these issues to the fore.

He also revealed that the feature film would be due for premiere in March 2027 in commemoration of Ghana’s 70th independence celebrations.

The stage production delivered a seamless blend of humour, heritage and contemporary relevance, reminding patrons of the enduring power of Ghanaian theatre to unite communities and celebrate identity.

With its successful run on stage, the team is now taking a bold step to adapt it for cinema.

He expressed his appreciation to all stakeholders for their support in making the project a success.

 The grand finale was held on September 5 in Nha Trang, where Joheirry Mola Dominguez of the Dominican Republic was crowned Miss World 2026. Elisabeth Reynés of Spain was named first runner-up, while Taanusiya Chetty of Malaysia emerged as second runner-up.

Although Ghana did not take the overall crown, Rumzia made the country proud with her strong showing in the Beauty With a Purpose segment. Her sanitation-focused project earned her a place among the Top 6 African finalists in the segment.

Her project has focused on promoting sanitation and encouraging Ghanaians to take responsibility for keeping their communities clean. As part of the project, she joined the President’s clean-up campaign and collaborated with the “Bus Stop Boys” to clean some principal streets in Accra.

She also donated GH¢10,000 to the Bus Stop Boys to support their sanitation efforts as well as victims of the Accra floods in June 2026.

Later in the year, Rumzia is expected to extend the campaign to schools, where she will engage children on the importance of maintaining a clean and healthy environment.

Rumzia earned the opportunity to represent Ghana internationally after winning the 69th Miss Ghana pageant in July 2026. The competition was held under the theme: ‘Empowering Women, Enduring Legacy.’
