The iconic movie writer, director, and actress Schelle Purcell, who played the landlady role in Tyler Perry’s Netflix blockbuster, Straw, was given a warm welcome by authorities and students of the North Legon Little Campus on Tuesday September 23, 2025.
With her friends Dr. Muriam Cinevert, bestselling author of Girl Just Show Up, and Dr. Shaneque Metellus, an autism advocate, the three for the first time visited Ghana to participate in the International Ladies High Tea & Awards hosted by RAIN Foundations.
Actress Schelle Purcell encouraged the students of North Legon Little Campus to believe in themselves, focus on learning to become their best, and determine to make their families, nation, and the world proud.
Answering questions from the students, she shared with them why she believed Tyler Perry’s Straw was one of his best movies yet. She explained that all over the world, many could identify with the struggles of Taraji in the movie. “Many have cried after watching Straw,” she said.
Dr. Cinevert, the women empowerment and self-esteem coach encouraged the children to be confident. She urged them not to let anybody make them feel less of themselves.
Dr. Metellus took her turn in encouraging the children to work on their mental health. She advised them to always talk to somebody in times of mental or emotional struggles.
The Director of the school, Mr. Douglas Djabeng Esq. thanked the founding president of RAIN Foundations, Author Ralph Antwi, for leading the team to visit the school. He admonished the children to continue to excel in both academics and sports as has been the hallmark of the school.
North Legon Little Campus (NLLC) is a fully-accredited British curriculum school that admits students from 1 to 19 years old. It is one of the model schools in Ghana that runs the Cambridge Primary and IGCSE programmes.
The National Sports Authority (NSA) has warned that Sarkodie will not be allowed to host his Rapaholic concert on the football pitch of the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi.
Director-General of the NSA, Yaw Ampofo Ankrah, said the pitch is strictly reserved for football and other sports activities.
He warned that any unauthorized use of the field during the concert would attract serious penalties, including heavy compensation.
Mr. Ankrah explained that while the Baba Yara Stadium has been approved as the venue, Sarkodie’s stage and sound systems will be positioned behind the goalpost to protect the playing surface.
He said all measures have been put in place to ensure the pitch is not damaged.
He further disclosed that the NSA is in the process of acquiring pitch covers to make it easier to host non-sporting events without compromising the playing field.
The NSA boss also revealed that several churches and organizations had offered as much as GHS 300,000 to use the pitch, but the requests were rejected. According to him, protecting the grounds for domestic and international football is a top priority.
Mr. Ankrah stressed that although the Authority permits the use of stadium facilities for events, the football pitch itself cannot be used for performances or entertainment.
He concluded that if any condition is breached during Sarkodie’s concert, strict sanctions will follow.
