Published

Waking up and finding celebrity doppelgängers on social media has become a trend itself. Day in day out, out of nowhere in particular, some human being somewhere turns up and we cannot tell the difference between him/her and our favorite celebrities.

Quite recently, we have discovered even more Ghanaian celebrity lookalikes than you think, and judging from their previous interviews and social media comments, the celebs are very much aware of it too.

A lot of celebrity lookalikes have popped up all over the world, in some cases these doppelgängers have visited the homes of the celebrities they look like. This website shows how celebrities can stay protected in their homes from unwanted visitors.

Here are seven of the uncanniest Ghanaian celebrity lookalikes that will make you do a double take:

  1. Shatta Wale and his doppelgänger Gunshot

When Gunshot made it to MTN Hitmaker Season 4 in the year 2015, everyone was amazed at how much he looked and sounded like Shatta Wale. His voice, face, mannerisms, his energy during performances, it was extremely hard to not think it wasn’t Shatta Wale performing. He even managed to get an endorsement from Shatta Wale himself during the competition. Gunshot is still trying to cement his name in the music scene and we wish him the best. Some people joked that Gunshot should have been given the opportunity to live in Shatta Wale’s mansion when rumours hit the internet that Nana Appiah Mensah has evicted Shatta Wale from the house he signed onto Menzgold with. Find out a checklist for moving out of house on this website.

2. Sarkodie and his seemingly twin brother, Danny Ranking

When Danny Ranking’s photo first made it to social media, absolutely nobody could convince me that this was not Sarkodie, the shape of the head, the haircut, the beard, mehn, it was all too confusing. Well, turns out Danny does not only look like the rapper physically, but he’s also looking into starting a music career of his own. Well, hopefully, when he becomes a household name in the future, we will not have a hard time mixing him up with our rapper, Sarkodie.

3. Ebony reigns and her lookalike, Ms. Akua Cheremanteng

Ebony has so many lookalikes springing up day in day out, but to me, Ms Akua Cheremanteng tops them all. Their hairstyle, shape of their face, their eyes, almost too good to be true. The only difference is that, Ms Akua is more endowed in the behind than our favorite late singer. That’s possibly the only way we can tell them apart. It is amazing how Ebony’s legacy still leaves on, a testament to the fact that humanity draws to warmth and like-ability. Rexoriginals.com shares knowledge on this phenomenon and more. 

4. Pappy Kojo and his lookalike Pappy Kubi

These two share a very special bond. Pappy Kojo has accepted and welcomed his doppelgänger, and we love him for it. The two have posed together in photos and even worked together on some music as well. When Pappy Kojo says he’s the realer nu, better believe it cos he has kept it real with his lookalike.

5.  Kuami Eugene and his doppelgänger

The first we heard of Kuami Eugene’s doppelgänger was in a viral video of him performing at a funeral. And yes, he was performing Kuami Eugene’s music. This guy has been relentless and finally made his way recently to Kumasi to meet the Rockstar himself. He was gifted 100 dollars for his troubles and invited to perform on stage alongside the Rockstar at his concert, a move Delay has condemned vehemently.

6. KiDi and his lookalike

Just like you and I, KiDi was extremely shocked when he met his doppelgänger for the first time on live TV. His face, stature, hairstyle, everything, literally a clone of KiDi.

7. King Promise

This guy from nowhere, just appeared in a video on social media trying so hard to be King Promise. Made his face up to look like him, cut his head sakora, with the big camboo. Charley, he really tried so hard but …

Ghana International Trade Fair Center on the eviction and demolition of Fantasy Dome

Published

The Ghana Trade Fair Company Limited has dismantled the “Fantasy Dome,” owned by Fantasy Entertainment, which has been on the trade fair site since January 2018, to pave way for developers to complete the ongoing “Ghana International Trade Fair Center Development Project.”

The dismantled facility will be available to its owners for it to be relocated.

The tenancy agreement between owners of the Fantasy Dome and the Trade Fair Company Limited expired on 31 December 2023. Since then, all efforts by the management of the Trade Fair Company Limited to get “Fantasy Entertainment” to remove the “Fantasy Dome” from the Trade Fair site has proved futile.

The CEO of Fantasy Entertainment has stated in a Saturday March 17th interview that he has an injunction, but the Trade Fair Company Limited has VEHEMENTLY DENIED any such injunction. In fact the company states that it has not been served with any court processes and no injunction was served on the day of the demolition.

Ironically, access to the portion of the site where the “Fantasy Dome” is situated at the Trade Fair site is vital for developers to construct the power and water infrastructure for the project as well as the drainage system to serve the new Ghana International Trade Fair Center. The dome has hampered the progress of these works for approximately 12 months.

To this end, the Trade Fair Company Limited on Saturday, 16 March 2024, embarked on an exercise supervised by the Ghana Police Service with support from the National Security Ministry to take down the “Fantasy Dome” in order for construction works on the Trade Fair site to proceed freely.

Brief background

The Ghana Trade Fair Company (GTFCL) was established by an Executive Instrument (EI) in 1960 as a project to facilitate Ghana’s post-independence trade and industrialization drive.

The Executive Instrument 10 acquired a 239.92-acre land for this purpose and to showcase Ghana’s exports with the view to attracting investors into its fledgling economy.

From its origins in 1960, GTFCL has metamorphosed into a limited liability company strategically positioned to promote and facilitate trade in Ghana.

There have been attempts by successive governments to revive the company through various public-private partnership initiatives. These attempts have focused on redeveloping the entire center under various themes. The current redevelopment project is considered as a core part of President Nana Akufo Addo’s vision to position Ghana as a trade hub for West Africa.

The new Ghana International Trade Fair Center Development Project, when completed, would have a convention and an exhibition center, a technology hub, retail mall, commercial offices, hotel accommodation, and public realm spaces.
Infrastructure works and construction of the major exhibition center are now underway.

It is under the Akufo-Addo government that the company was revived to successfully undertake an aggressive redevelopment of the site. The management and board of directors of the company under this government have worked tirelessly to turn the company into a commercially viable business today and have secured funding from development partners to develop the site.
