NDC has no moral right to criticize ongoing Astroturf in Binduri–Peter Ayinbisa
The Upper East Regional Director of Communication for the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) has said, the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Region does not have the moral right to criticize the ongoing Astroturf in the Binduri constituency and any other parts of the region, because they failed woefully without giving the region even a 4 by 4 Astroturf when they had the opportunity to produce a sports Minister Mahama Ayariga a resident of the Upper East Region. Mr. Ayinbisa was responding to the claim made by the NDC Regional Communication Officer Abdallah Salifu, who during an interview with Ngamegbulam Chidozie Stephen of Apexnewsgh.com on Monday described the ongoing construction of Astroturf by the Binduri Member of Parliament Abdulai Abanga as “4 by 4 Astroturf’ Meanwhile, responding further to the claim made by the RCO, Mr. Ayinbisa questioned the NDC record in Binduri as far as sports development is concerned since 1992. “He is saying that the Astroturf is 4 by 4, what is your record in that constituency in terms of sports development in that constituency? They have occupied that seat since 1992 and they have not built a 4 by 4 Astroturf facility in that constituency. Just within two and half years, Hon. Abanga has lobbied and they have brought the Astroturf facility to Binduri Constituency and he is complaining. If he likes, he should call it zero Astroturf, we all know they have not done anything for the people of Binduri they have not given them any sports facility”. “Let me put it on record, that what we are seeing is phase one of the project, phase two will come and it will contain many more recreational areas within the constituency and I want to assure NDC, by the time we are done with what we want to do Abdallah himself will run to Binduri to exercise to become more fits than he is currently. He will definitely stop going to magani and go to Binduri”. Ayinbisa stressed He said, the NDC promised to build a sports stadium in the region and they ended up doing nothing. “Mahama Ayariga was a Sports Minister and he did nothing and today, we are building an Astroturf in Binduri, We are building Astroturf in Pusiga, we are building Astroturf in Bolga and we are building a mini Sports Stadium in Navrongo. So, we are building four (4) Astroturf within this region”. “The NDC did not build any single Astroturf in the region since 1992. So, they don’t have the moral right to talk about that”. He stressed Meanwhile, pointing out some of Hon. Abanga’s contributions to his people of Binduri within just a two years interval in office, the NPP Regional Communication Director Mr. Ayinbisa said: Medical equipment comprises of beds, mattresses, wheelchairs, and some other medical equipment that I might not be able to mention on this platform. No MP for Binduri has ever presented medical equipment to the hospital and I deer them to produce any records of any of their MPs, Ministers, or Deputy Ministers having procured any medical equipment and supply to the Binduri Constituency and that is what Hon. Abanga the lone ranger of this region, the single MP for this region is doing for the people of Binduri. “The MP has supplied over 700 dual desks to schools in Binduri. Look, am here in Bongo and am looking at what my MP has done and I can tell you and bet you my last pesewas that Edward Bawa has not supplied up to 700 pieces of furniture to schools in Bongo, he has not even supplied up to 300 furniture to schools in the district. I have not seen, I have not heard that he has supplied furniture to schools in our district up to 700 and that is what the MP for Binduri has done”. he stated The NPP Regional Communication Director maintained that Hon. Abanga thinks about the Children, “he thinks about the future of children and that is what he has done in the constituency. So, if you sit in your corner you think the MP has done nothing. I am telling you on authority that the MP has drilled over 35 boreholes, he drilled a good number before buying the wreck but after buying the wreck, he has drilled over 35 boreholes”. “The claim by Abdallah that, the wreck is his personal one, what is wrong about that? Don’t we use our personal benevolence to help communities? This is an MP whose colleagues used their Common Funds or used the loans they were supposed to use to buy V-8 vehicles to have comfort by driving around the country, coming to the constituency to show off, sitting comfortably and going around the constituency. This is an MP who decided to discount his comfort by using the loan he was supposed to use to buy a V-8, he added money from his personal resources to buy a wreck to drill boreholes to the benefit of the people. What is wrong with that? He asked Meanwhile, Ayinbisa also maintained that, It is only the NDC who doesn’t do that, “they are always waiting to use government-made resources, they are always waiting for the normal allocated resources before they can do something for the constituency”. Mr. Ayinbisa told Apexnewsgh.com He shared some phone footage of medical equipment supplied by Hon.

Former Chelsea and Newcastle winger Christian Atsu is reportedly ‘stuck trapped under rubble of a destroyed building’ following a 7.8 magnitude earthquake in Turkey. More than 1,600 people have been killed and thousands more injured after the catastrophic earthquake that rocked Turkey and Syria overnight, flattening neighbourhoods while families were asleep. As reported by multiple outlets in Turkey, a search and rescue operation is underway for Ghanaian international Atsu – who joined Turkish Super Lig club Hatayspor last summer. Two of his team-mates as well as members of the technical staff were said to have been pulled out of the rubble, though Atsu – who scored a dramatic late winner for his club yesterday – is still missing. Atsu joined Chelsea in 2013 but never played a competitive minute for the club as he was sent out on loan for a number of seasons including to Everton and Newcastle. Though he made just five appearances at Everton, he impressed enough on loan at Newcastle to make a permanent move to the Magpies. In total, he made 107 appearances for the club, scoring eight goals, before joining Saudi side Al-Raed in 2021. Atsu was in action last night for Hatayspor, scoring a goal in the seventh minute of stoppage time in a 1-0 victory over Kasimpasa. Hatayspor player Onur Ergurn, meanwhile posted in an Instagram story saying reports that he is missing were incorrect. ‘Thank you very much to everyone who called and asked,’ the midfielder said. ‘The news is not true. I’m fine. ‘I can’t answer the phone because there is a network problem. Get well soon to all of us.’ Turkish keeper, Ahmed Turkaslan of Yeni Malatyaspor is also said to be missing. The clubs assistant coach İlhan Var said: ‘We have not found our goalkeeper Ahmet Eyup Turkaslan yet. There are no signs right now. His wife came out and described where he could be.’ The wife of Hatayspor manager Volkan Demirel shared a tearful message after a massive aftershock with a magnitude of 7.5 hit Turkey’s south hours after the original quake.

Tom Brady officially hangs up from NFL
Tom Brady has set the record straight by posting a simple message on his social media accounts that announced he was hanging it up for good. “I’ll get straight to the point, I’m retiring. For good,” Brady said. “I know the process was a big deal last time, so when I woke up this morning I figured I’d just press record and let you guys know first.” The next question is obvious: Is Tom Brady really retiring from the NFL? We did this song and dance last year when Brady retired, but he went back on that a month later when he announced he would be returning for one more season. At the time it was believed that Brady was motivated to come back so he could retire the way he wanted to, and not be beaten to his own punch by Adam Schefter — which is what caused the whole circus in the first place. Schefter announced Brady’s retirement before the man himself could, which not only seemed to be a motivating factor for Brady to return but put a sour note on the whole event. In the days leading up to Brady unretiring, Mike Florio from PFT noted that the retirement was from the Buccaneers and not the NFL. That came on the heels of reports that Brady wanted to team up with Sean Payton in Miami and finish his career with the Dolphins. That didn’t happen, and while his final season with the Buccaneers didn’t go the way anyone thought it would, Brady’s retirement seems to be official this time.

Hulk Hogan is not paralyzed, according to his rep.
Hulk Hogan, the WWE legend’s health generated serious concern after his colleague wrestler Kurt Angle hinted that he was informed by Hogan that he lost all feeling in his lower body. However, Hogan’s representative disregarded the claim, stressing that the Hall of Famer is “doing well and is not paralyzed” following back surgery. “Everything is OK with him,” Hogan’s rep told Entertainment Tonight. “Hulk is someone with a lot of humor.” Speaking on “The Kurt Angle Show,” the former Olympic champion said Hogan now relies on the help of a cane for mobility. “Hogan had his back surgery again,” he said on Sunday’s episode. “He had the nerves cut from his lower body. He can’t feel his lower body. So let’s use his cane to walk around. I thought he was using the cane because he had pain in his back. He doesn’t have any pain. He has nothing at all. He can’t feel anything.” Angle said the former wrestler revealed some critical details about his health during the filming of WWE’s Monday Night Raw 30th anniversary episode, which aired on Jan. 23. “So now he can’t feel his legs. So he has to walk with a cane which is, you know, that’s pretty serious, man,” he went on. “I really feel for Hogan. He put his heart and soul into the business and ate him up.” “I mean, if you’re gonna kick off the show, the 30th anniversary of Raw, [it] should be Hulk Hogan. He’s the name and face of the company. He’s the guy that revolutionized pro wrestling. I have so much respect for him,” he added. Angle’s claim came as a surprise to fans who saw 69-year-old Hogan make a surprise appearance at RAW XXX in Philadelphia last week. While he appeared to be in good health and spirits, Angle said he spoke to Hogan backstage and the broadcast did not show the former wrestler’s actual condition.
