Obama Invites His Favorite Rapper To The White House

Obama invites Kendrick Lamar Kendrick Lamar’s big year in 2015 included a White House visit with President Obama, according to one of the president’s top aides. Senior adviser Valerie Jarrett told BuzzFeed’s “Another Round” podcast that Obama recently shared a personal moment with the rapper in the Oval Office. “You know what the president said to him? [Because] he was a little nervous — bless his heart, he’s really a very nice young man, and the president said, ‘Can you believe that we’re both sitting in this Oval Office?’” Jarrett said. The visit occurred in late October, the White House said, when Lamar was in Washington to perform at the Kennedy Center with the National Symphony Orchestra. Lamar dominated the music scene in 2015 with his latest album, “To Pimp A Butterfly.” He received 11 Grammy nominations, including nods for Album of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Rap Album. The president is a big fan, too. Obama told People magazine last month his favorite song of 2015 was Lamar’s “How Much A Dollar Cost.” “That’s great, man,” Lamar told TMZ in response to hearing Obama’s praise. Asked about the message of the song, Lamar said, “Help as many people as you can, man, [if you] want to live forever.”

Don't Toy With Our Peace – DI Warns EC

Policy think tank Danquah Institute (DI) has asked the Electoral Commission not to go ahead with its planned limited registration of fresh voters ahead of the November polls until it has implemented a validation exercise recommended by the Panel of five eminent members. Executive Director of DI Nana Attobrah Quaicoe told journalists at a press conference in Accra on Monday February 1 that the validation process will ensure that close to 600,000 names of dead people are removed from the 2012 register of voters. “Ladies and gentlemen of the media, now, how come this most sensible and cost-effective proposal from the Panel of experts is being totally ignored by the EC? We say it is being totally ignored because the EC has already given a date for the limited registration, which is from March 21 to April 4, and that exercise has nothing to do with validation, as currently planned. “In our view, the period for limited registration is perfect for validation as well,” Mr Quaicoe said, adding: “The Danquah Institute, by this news conference, is asking the EC to postpone the date for the limited registration for another month or so, consider the proposal from the Panel and work towards incorporating validation with the limited registration exercise.” “This would only mean that those who turn up for validation would have to join one queue and those who show up for new registration, as first time voters, would also have their own queue since their exercise would require the filling of forms, and having their fingerprints and photographs taken and a new card issued. “By this, the exhibition exercise, which will take place a couple of months after, will be done for the complete register of those who were validated and those who registered anew. “Indeed, the EC can go as far as even presenting fresh laminated cards for those who will go through validation during the validation/limited registration exercise. We estimate that this whole exercise of validation, even if it involves the issuance of a new laminated voter ID card, should not cost the state more than an additional $15 million. But, we also know that it would, once and for all, answer all the main issues that those calling for a new credible register have raised. The benefit is that we will go into this year’s elections with our nation at peace with itself,” Mr Quaicoe added.

2016, A Straight Fight Between NDC & NPP...No Serious Impact By Other Political Parties

NPP and NDC       A political science lecturer at the Methodist University College, Dr. Owusu Bonsu has predicted that the 2016 election battle scheduled for November 7, 2016 is a straight fight between the largest opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC). He insisted the 2016 election does not foresee any other political party making any serious impact to push the election for run-off. But a renowned pollster, Mr. Ben Ephson has professed that the election of Mr. Ivor Greenstreet as the Flagbearer of the Convention People’s Party (CPP) has the tendency to push the 2016 election for re-run with 7 percent of the total votes. He explained that Mr. Ivor Greenstreet is well connected to the grassroots and can pull a surprise in the 2016 election. But commenting on Okay Fm’s Ade Akye Abia Morning Show, Dr. Owusu Bonsu said he believes Ivor Greenstreet can use the various disable groups in the country to his advantage and win sympathy votes but added all depends on the effective campaign the party will embark on. “I believe the 2016 election battle is a straight fight between the major political parties [NPP and NDC]; I don’t think the other political parties can make serious impact in the 2016 election. Until all the break-away p[arties emerge to form a formidable party, I don’t think CPP can make any serious impact in Ghana politics,” he asserted. He however asserted that the CPP delayed in choosing its Flagbearer as it should have been done a year ago to patch up any difference which may arise especially as the party is yet to elect its parliamentary candidates. He therefore advised the CPP Flagbearer, Ivor Greenstreet to immediately reach out to those who lost to him in the contest and forge a united front by assigning roles to the losers in his campaign team.
