Ghana’s Entertainment Landscape: Major Revelations from Public Figures and the Global Expansion of Cultural Festivals

March 2026 has proven to be a vibrant month for the Ghanaian entertainment and cultural scene, marked by high-profile relationship updates, significant community engagements, and the international export of local heritage. From the controversial lifestyle declarations of Bishop Kwabena Asiamah, popularly known as Ajagurajah, to the expansion of Ghana’s culinary festivals into South America, the period has been filled with stories reflecting the diversity of Ghanaian life. Notably, Suriname’s Minister for Education, Science, and Culture, Dirk Max Currie, announced plans to replicate Ghana’s "Back to Your Village Festival," originally organized by Citi FM and Channel One TV. This international collaboration aims to celebrate diverse cuisines and heritage, mirroring the original event scheduled for late March in Accra.

On the personal front, several public figures have shared intimate and sometimes startling details about their lives. Bishop Kwabena Asiamah of the Ajagurajah Movement sparked social media debate by stating he would rather his downfall be caused by a woman than a car accident, citing a biblical preference for numerous partners and an aspiration to have dozens of wives and girlfriends. Similarly, popular gospel musician Broda Sammy (Samuel Opoku) officially confirmed the end of his marriage to his France-based wife, Obaa Yaa, noting that customary drinks had been returned despite his efforts to resolve their issues. Meanwhile, artiste manager Bullgod recounted a past brush with danger involving a controversial cartoon he drew of the late President Jerry Rawlings, and veteran actor Terrence Howard made headlines by claiming he once passed on an opportunity to date Beyoncé in favor of another member of Destiny’s Child.

The week also saw significant achievements in fashion, community support, and personal fortune. At the University of Education, Winneba, the Department of Textiles and Fashion (TEXFA) turned the streets into a runway for Akwaaba Week, showcasing the creative designs of 30 models to an enthusiastic crowd. In a show of religious solidarity, Malta Guinness paid a courtesy visit to the National Chief Imam, Sheikh Osmanu Nuhu Sharubutu, donating products for Iftar and reaffirming its commitment to the Muslim community ahead of the Eid celebrations and Sallafest. The brand emphasized its Made-in-Ghana status and local sourcing during the visit.

Furthermore, stories of empowerment and luck rounded out the news cycle. Entrepreneur and digital creator Princess Burland represented Ghanaian excellence at the "Women of Valour" initiative in London, founded by Nana Aba Anamoah to champion female empowerment within the diaspora. Back at home, Doziah Boateng, a Level 300 nursing student, secured a life-changing GH¢50,000 jackpot in the "Wotiriye" lottery, which she plans to use to support her education. These events collectively highlight a period of transition and celebration, where traditional values, modern entertainment, and individual success stories continue to shape the narrative of contemporary Ghana.
