Stonebwoy makes history as BHIM FEST lands at Wembley
Stonebwoy has written another significant chapter in his career after bringing his BHIM FEST brand to London’s OVO Arena Wembley.
The Ghanaian music star headlined the 12,500-capacity venue on Saturday, August 15, in what became a major international moment for Ghanaian music.
Rather than simply presenting another concert, Stonebwoy used the occasion to showcase Ghanaian identity on a global stage. His arrival featured the Ghana flag and the Independence Arch projected across the stage, setting the tone for a night centred on Ghanaian culture and Afrodancehall.

The crowd was treated to performances from Stonebwoy’s catalogue, with “Silent Samurai” among the songs that generated strong reactions from the audience.
The event also brought together several established names from Ghana and across Africa. Samini, Kwabena Kwabena, Ofori Amponsah, DopeNation, Jux, Mista Silva, Mr P and Stylo G were among the artistes who contributed to the night’s entertainment.

For Stonebwoy, the significance of the concert lies in the platform it provided for Ghanaian music.
Performing at a venue with a history of hosting international stars such as Beyoncé, Madonna, Prince and Burna Boy places the BHIM FEST brand in a new international space.

The Wembley show therefore becomes more than another entry on Stonebwoy’s concert calendar; it represents a further attempt to take Ghanaian Afrodancehall beyond the country’s borders and connect it with audiences on some of the world’s biggest music stages.

Lil Win Takes Aim at Actors Guild Presidency, Eyes Contest with Van Vicker
Veteran Ghanaian actor Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as Lil Win, has announced his decision to contest the presidency of the Ghana Actors Guild, potentially setting up a keenly watched election battle with fellow actor Van Vicker.
Lil Win made his intentions known during an interview with Poku 1 TV, shared on August 13, 2026. He confirmed that he had decided to enter the race and disclosed that he had already tasked someone with picking up the nomination forms on his behalf.
“Let it be known to all Ghanaians that I will be vying for the position of Actors’ Guild president. I’ve already delegated someone to pick up the forms for me.”
His declaration comes at a time when his relationship with Van Vicker appears strained. Only days earlier, Lil Win stated that he would no longer work with Van Vicker, alleging that his colleague had repeatedly declined movie roles and failed to communicate with him ahead of scheduled productions.
The decision to contest the Guild presidency has therefore sparked interest within the Ghanaian film industry, particularly because Van Vicker has also been linked to the leadership race.
Lil Win, however, has dismissed suggestions that his decision to contest is aimed at challenging or undermining Van Vicker personally.
The latest development follows the resolution of a long-running leadership dispute within the Ghana Actors Guild.
In January 2026, a court ruled that the tenure of former Guild president Sammy Fiscian had ended in 2017. The court subsequently directed Van Vicker to compile a new membership register to pave the way for fresh elections.
Beyond the leadership contest, Lil Win has outlined some of the initiatives he would pursue if elected president.
One of his major proposals is the establishment of a dedicated streaming platform for Ghanaian films. According to the actor, many local filmmakers currently have limited options for distributing their productions, with most relying on platforms such as YouTube and DStv.
“A lot of filmmakers do not have dedicated platforms to share their movies on. Most local movies are now on YouTube and on DStv, which gives very limited options.”
He believes a locally focused streaming service could give Ghanaian filmmakers greater control over their content while creating additional opportunities to earn revenue from their productions.
Lil Win also revealed that he would explore international investment opportunities to finance the proposed platform, including potential support from Dubai and other Arab countries.
“Possibly, I will seek investment from Dubai or the Arab countries to help build a sustainable platform for the movie industry.”
With Lil Win now declaring his intention to contest, the upcoming Ghana Actors Guild elections could become a closely followed contest, particularly if Van Vicker also formally enters the race.
The election is expected to determine the next leadership of the Guild as the association seeks to move forward from years of internal disagreements and establish a new direction for Ghana’s film industry.

I’ve been able to get my own studio Through my leaks:DJ A.K
Ghanaian journalist Rexford Adu Ntim, popularly known as DJ KA, has revealed that the controversy surrounding an alleged leaked intimate video involving him unexpectedly contributed to the completion of his new studio.
DJ KA became the subject of intense public discussion on social media after the alleged private video surfaced online, attracting widespread reactions and criticism.
Speaking in a video shared on X on August 14, 2026, the journalist said the incident, despite the negative attention and derogatory comments directed at him, pushed him to make important decisions and remain focused on his personal goals.
According to DJ KA, the controversy ultimately gave him the motivation and opportunity to complete his studio project within a short period.
He disclosed that he had finished building the studio and would soon invite people to see it.
“I am done building my studio, and I will invite you very soon. Through the issue that happened, I have been able to finish my studio within two to three weeks,” he said.
DJ KA explained that while the situation subjected him to name-calling and harsh comments, he refused to allow the controversy to derail his plans.
Instead, he concentrated on his work and used the difficult period as an opportunity to make progress in his personal and professional life.
The journalist also expressed his appreciation to actress Benedicta Gafah for the support she offered him during the ordeal.
He said he received overwhelming love and encouragement from several individuals, although he could not mention everyone who stood by him.
“I received overwhelming love and support from some individuals, and I cannot even mention all their names. Benedicta Gafah actually supported me so much,” he added.
DJ KA further aimed at some media houses, accusing them of attempting to damage his reputation and career within the media industry.
He is now preparing to unveil his newly completed studio to the public.

Ramsey Nouah recounts unusual encounter with female fan at Ghana movie premiere
Nollywood actor and filmmaker Ramsey Nouah has opened up about an unusual encounter he had with a female fan during a movie premiere in Ghana.
Speaking on Angel FM in Kumasi, the veteran actor said the woman approached him, hugged him and took photographs with him before secretly slipping an unidentified item into the pocket of his jacket.
Ramsey Nouah explained that he initially thought the item was a handkerchief, but later discovered that it was something else.
He deliberately refused to disclose exactly what the woman had left in his pocket, leaving listeners to make their own guesses.
However, guests on the programme shouted that the item was the woman’s panties, a reaction that made the actor laugh.
Recounting the incident, Ramsey Nouah said:
“She walked up to me, she hugged me, we took pictures, and she left it in my jacket, and I took it out, I thought it was a handkerchief; it wasn’t a handkerchief. I will leave the rest for your imagination.”
The actor also discussed how his wife of about 27 years reacts to the romantic and intimate scenes he performs with other actresses in movies.
According to Ramsey Nouah, his wife has become used to seeing him kiss his co-stars because she understands that such scenes are part of his profession.
He revealed that she sometimes teases him about his kissing skills, joking that he is no longer as good as he used to be.
He quoted his wife as saying:
“Your woman needs to understand your work. I have been married to my wife for about 27 years. All the kisses and everything in movies, she is used to it. She used to tell me, ‘You are not kissing very well. You don’t do it anymore because you are not good anymore.’

Please Wait till Next Year – Lil Win Appeals to Ghanaians Over Private Videos
Ghanaian Kumawood actor and filmmaker Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as Lil Win, has appealed to anyone planning to release private videos to hold on until next year.
The actor appealed for renewed conversations on social media over the circulation of alleged private videos involving some personalities.
Lil Win explained that private videos that surface online often generate intense public interest and can quickly dominate conversations across social media platforms. He noted that such developments could make it difficult for other entertainment-related activities and projects to attract the attention they deserve.
According to the actor, he is particularly concerned about the possible impact of another viral private video on the promotion of his upcoming movie, A Journey to Africa. He said considerable resources had already been committed to the project and appealed to anyone who may be in possession of private footage to delay its release until next year.
His request was essentially for people to allow him and his team to have their moment in promoting the movie without another controversy taking over social media.
Lil Win also used the opportunity to encourage people who have recently found themselves at the centre of private-video controversies. Among those he mentioned was Kumawood actor Oteele, whose alleged private videos have recently sparked widespread online discussion.
The actor urged Oteele and others affected by similar incidents to remain strong and not allow the intense public attention and commentary to break them down.
The comments come against the backdrop of growing concerns about the circulation of private material on social media. Once such content is uploaded or shared, it can spread rapidly, reaching large audiences within a short period and subjecting the individuals involved to widespread public scrutiny.
Lil Win’s appeal, although linked to the promotion of A Journey to Africa, has also drawn attention to the broader consequences of sharing private material without the consent of the people involved.
He therefore called for patience, asking those who may be holding such footage to wait until next year before releasing anything, as he seeks to keep public attention focused on his upcoming movie.
