Berla Mundi’s story would make a very good book and I encourage her to write it. Berla plays down her achievements and talks about her childhood, her failed beauty contest and her fears in a way that is so compelling and, you know what, so down-to-earth.

This Sunday, Berla’s my guest in on your . It’s a big conversation.

If you’re a Berla Mundi fan or you just love a good story, please book your front seat 💺 💺 💺

"I knew I would have to bear witness," Elie Wiesel told NPR in 1988. "Everyone who was there is a witness, ..."

At age 16, Elie Wiesel was one of the more than 21,000 people liberated from Buchenwald in 1945.

Elie was first deported to Auschwitz with his family in May 1944. Elie and his father, Shlomo, were selected for forced labor and later transported from Auschwitz to Buchenwald, where his father died. His mother and one of his sisters were killed at Auschwitz.

Ten years later, he began writing what would become his memoir, "Night," now published and translated into more than 30 languages.

Elie is pictured here after liberation in the second row of bunks, seventh from the left, next to the vertical beam.

In this life, there is always another side of every story. Sometimes you can be sincere and passionate to defend what you know as the truth. You may have your facts. Sometimes you may even find your facts too glaring to be thrown to the trash. But calm down till you hear and understand the other side of the story.
Assuming that you had access to only picture 1, and you had to tell its story.... "your guess is as good as mine". But having access to pictures 2, now you dont even need to think twice to know that you were wrong.
We are in an information age and we need to search more before we limit our knowledge to what we have always known.

JUST IN: Former Ghana Int Odartey Lamptey has won back his East Legon mansion from his ex wife.

The Accra Court finally ruled that Mr Lamptey can take possession of his house tomorrow. Lamptey has been renting since 2014 after the wife sued to claim the house following their divorce.

Odartey confirmed to me he will be officially moving back to the house tomorrow despite the refusal of his ex wife to vacate the place after the ruling.

Following the divorce, Lamptey parted away with his five bedroom house at Dome plus a sum of 400,000 cedis as alimony to the ex wife but Ms Gloria Lamptey insisted she wanted the East Legon House instead.

With the latest ruling on March 2, 2022 Odartey has been granted by the court to take back his house.

My wife and I had an issue this morning before we left for work. It was a small misunderstanding between me and her.

We were both angry with each other. From my facial expression, my wife knew I was very prepared to keep malice with her that morning. She was also angry and didn't mind playing along.

I stepped out of the house and she locked the doors and followed me behind. Since we don't have a car, we always board the same bus to work every morning and ensure we sit together- side by side on the bus.

I was to drop at Manda hill and she was to drop at zesco.

But today, I didn't want to sit close to her. So I sat at the back seat and she sat in front, just beside a good-looking Police officer.

The man glanced at my wife. I saw the way he looked at her hair and face with so much admiration. Then he told her she looked beautiful. My wife smiled and told him thank you.

He asked my wife where she was going and she told him she was heading to work.

All this while, I was sitting behind and listening to their conversation.

"My name is Mwansa Mweemba. I am a police officer as you can see from my uniform. I was just posted to Lusaka a month ago. Right now I am heading to my place of assignment."

My wife nodded her head. When the conductor requested for my wife to pay her transport fare, the officer offered to pay. He pulled out a K50 and Said Two.

My wife thanked him and smiled.

Then the officer continued.

"So I will be dropping soon at Munali I am accommodated at Chelston Police Camp. I don't know if you can drop by someday to say hello to me. Can I have your number?"

I didn't waste any more time. I tapped my wife on her shoulders immediately.

She turned.

And then I asked her.

"Hope you remembered to put a spoon inside Kasubas lunch box? You know you always forget."

My wife was puzzled. She was probably wondering who Kasuba is, and why I had chosen to talk to her. Before she could ask any further questions I added.

"Try to pick her up from school early today. I will be coming back home late. You can cook ifinkubala for me for dinner so that when I return I will eat something before bed."

My wife was confused.

Then she glanced at the police man and returned her gaze to me. She understood what I was trying to do.

"Yes, honey." She nodded.

The police man turned and saw me. He greeted me. Then he asked my wife.

"Is that your husband?"

My wife nodded. The police man glanced at me again and again.

Then he glanced for the last time and smiled at me.

I didn't smile back.

When we got to the Chainama I dropped from the bus and dragged my wife along with me.

My wife couldn't stop laughing. While we were about to board another bus, she asked me.

"Honey, who is Kasuba?"

"Kasuba is our future daughter. Jump on the bus let us go."

My wife laughed.

We boarded another bus to and this time, we sat together. Side by side in the bus. And this time I paid for her.

When you give your partner distance, both emotionally and physically, you let the devil occupy that space. He takes your position without your permission and builds a home for himself in your place. Don't let the devil have a place in your home. Cover all grounds.

Make your presence known.

May God bless your marriage and relationship.
