From the time I received the invitation to be part of the MultiChoice Content ShowCase Extravaganza in Mauritius, I was wishing the months to pass by quickly for September to arrive. To create content during the week-long event was definitely something to look forward to.
One thing is certain; you don’t need a visa to go to Mauritius. This fact I knew about way before Prez. Mahama went there to discuss trade matters. Your passport gets stamped on entry at the customs area.
It was opening night of the MultiChoice Content Showcase Extravaganza and Stonebwoy had just finished his brilliant reggaeton performance . Chagrined that he was the only Ghanaian celebrity at the week-long event in Mauritius I nevertheless caught up with him to find out what he thinks of Ghanaian women going onboard the natural hair revolution.
The BET Award Winner looking resplendent in his Gye Nyame emblazoned t-shirt had this to say to all naturalistas.

I remember falling down one time during a 100m relay race back in Secondary School. Flat on my face that’s how I fell. All because I had to turned my head to see a distraction behind me. Needless to say I lost the race, and never run again. Well aside from morning runs against myself.
Â
Imagine how nervous I was when I realized I was going to be taking part in the AMAZING RACE which is shown on the Sony channel (DSTV Channel (DStv Channel 127 and GOtv Plus channel 21) as part of the activities lined up for the invited guests. Kai! Me? Run? It aint gonna happen. Not today and definitely not in a jumpsuit and the pink flip flops that I was wearing! How come we weren’t told of this? I would have dressed more appropriately! Come and see pressure!

I do well to watch at least one of the quarterly plays by Uncle Ebo Whyte. Each play has been hilarious, thought-provoking and always brought a sense of community amongst the audience. So when I got tickets to see FORBIDDEN I wasn’t expecting less. FORBIDDEN is a play of deceit, unfaithfulness, faith and blind love bound together in humor and song.
I had already heard of people going to watch FORBDIDEN about four times after their first experience. And to say my curiosity wasn’t perked would be an understatement. I rushed from the house at 3:30pm knowing full well how prompt the curtain lifts at 4pm. I was just in time!
Here's my review of the play:
