“Wee” is a blood tonic; It gives you appetite ” – Jay Bahd 

0

Ghanaian rapper, Jay Bahd has caused a stir by asserting that smoking marijuana, which is referred to as “wee” in Ghanaian culture, is not a sin and is instead comparable to “mogya duro,” which literally means “blood tonic.”

During an open interview on Ghpage’s Rush Hour Show, the “Odo” hitmaker unapologetically defended the smoking of ‘Wee’, stressing that it should not be deemed a sin but should be seen as a “blood tonic”.

According to the rapper, who’s also a lead member of Asakaa Boys, marijuana should be classified as a “blood tonic” since it increases appetite, which helps one to eat well.

In an effort to make a great point, he compared the use of marijuana to divine wisdom, saying that criticizing its use is the same as doubting God’s wisdom because he created everything and declared it holy for human consumption.

The rapper’s vocal position on marijuana use for recreational purposes clarifies the current discussion about the legalization and social acceptance of cannabis in different countries.

By comparing it to “mogya duro,” he subtly suggests that, for him, smoking marijuana holds a medicinal or therapeutic value rather than being a mere indulgence.

Sarkodie storms Supreme Court to fight FDA 

0

Multiple award-winning rapper, Michael Owusu Addo, famously known as Sarkodie, was in the Supreme Court today over a case challenging a guideline by the Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) prohibiting celebrities and well-known personalities from being used for advertising alcoholic products.

The case was filed by Mark Darlington Osae, Manager of Hiplife artistes -Reggie ‘N’ Bollie, and Skrewfaze.

It is the case of the plaintiff that the guideline by the FDA is unconstitutional as it violated the right against discrimination as guaranteed by Article 17 of the 1992 Constitution.

Article 17(1) of the Constitution stipulates that all persons shall be equal before the law, while Article 17(2) states that “a person shall not be discriminated on grounds of gender, race, colour, ethnic origin, religion, creed or social or economic status”.

Adjournment

A seven-member panel of the apex court was expected to hear the constitutional matter today but the case was adjourned to January 17.

Sarkodie was in court with lawyer for the plaintiff, Bobby Banson.

Ban

Guideline 3.2.10 of Guidelines for the Advertisement of Foods was published by the FDA on February 1, 2016.

It states that “No well-known personality or professional shall be used in alcoholic beverage advertising”.

The FDA contended that the guideline was necessary to stop minors from being hooked to alcohol due to the influence of celebrities.

In November last year, Mr Osae, who is also the Chairman and Co-Founder of Ghana Music Alliance, dragged the FDA and the Attorney General to the apex court.

He is seeking a declaration that “ on a true and proper interpretation of Article 17(1) and (2) which guarantee equality before the law and prohibits discrimination against persons on grounds of social or economic status, occupation, among others, Guideline 3.2.10 of the Guidelines for the Advertisement of Foods published by the 1st Defendant on 1st February 2016 which provides that “No well-known personality or professional shall be used in alcoholic beverage advertising” is discriminatory, inconsistent with and in contravention of articles 17(1) and 17(2) of the 1992 Constitution, and thus unconstitutional.

He is also asking the apex court for a declaration “that on a true and proper interpretation of Article 17(1) and (2), Guideline 3.2.10 of the Guidelines for the Advertisement of Foods published by the 1st Defendant on 1st February 2016 which prohibits well known personalities and professionals from advertising alcoholic products is inconsistent with and in contravention of articles 17(1) and 17 (2) of the 1992 Constitution which guarantee equality before the law and prohibits discrimination against persons on grounds of social or economic status, occupation amongst others and consequently null, void and unenforceable.”

He is also seeking “an order striking down Guideline 3.2.10 of the Guidelines for the Advertisement of foods published by the 1st Defendant on 1st February 2016 as being inconsistent with and in contravention of the letter and spirit of the 1992 Constitution and as such a nullity”
