For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given....Isaiah 9: 6-7. So it happened, that the third boy born to the Baidens on Friday, October 27, 2023, Oheneba Adepa Kofi Baiden, was named on Saturday, December 23, 2023.
It can be said that Christmas came early for the Baidens and all loved ones. All praise and thanks to God for this bundle of joy and gift of another human.

3. Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a
reward from him. 4. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in
one's youth. 5. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not
be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court. Psalms 127:3-5
Mr & Mrs Aacht named their bundle of joy on
Saturday, December 2, 2023 at the Holy Ghost Temple of the International
Central Gospel Church, Frafraha in Accra.
Family members and friends were present to witness the
joyous occasion and lend their support.
We thank God for His gift to the Aachts and pray His
blessings and protection over the little one, a boy, and the family. Below are
some images captured at the naming performed by Rev. William Owiredu. #Edmages

On Saturday, November 4, 2023, the late Journalist and Actress, Jayne Cordelia Araba Ntsifuaa Buckman-Owoo was gathered to her ancestors at a solemn Funeral and Burial Mass at the St. Theresa Catholic Church in Accra.
Tears came down unrestrained down the cheeks of family members, loved ones from the Graphic Communications Group Ltd where she worked till she passed, members of the parish where she was sent off and school mates, for the departed who gave up the ghost on Friday, August 18, 2023.
Also in attendance to bid farewell to their departed colleague were some members of the arts industry.
The memories captured by #Edmages tell the story better. Lord in thy gracious keeping leave we now thy servant sleeping. There the tears of earth are dried; there its hidden things are clear; There the work of life is tried by a juster Judge than here. Rest in Peace Jayne, till we meet again.

On October 14, 2023, two love birds, Ebenezer Afful and Juliet Akyaa Safo, a journalist with the Daily Graphic, had their cherished dream of going to the altar fulfilled, when they got joined together in Holy Matrimony at the Liberty Centre of the Assemblies of God Church at Akweteyman in Accra.
Their liberation was evident after the nuptials and signing ceremony, as they danced their hearts out to music provided by Gospel act Akese Brempong.
Family, friends and loved ones present joined the couple to rejoice and praise God for His goodness. Well, #Edmages was present too and shares some images from the wedding ceremony of the Affuls.
We wish them marriage bliss and an exciting journey together.

It was a tough one deciding on the appropriate headline for this post. Farewell? No because we will meet again, God willing. Bye-bye? No! Our paths will cross again soon.
'So much love' is what I settled on because in the few weeks you worked with us, you exuded so much of humanity towards everyone you had to work with or encountered.
Bless you for being who you are Nana Ama. Don't change who you are because that is what we love about you. We all wish you well in all your endeavours and let's see you again soon.
Below are some pics from the small get-together you held at the newsroom to say thank you to all who had assisted in making your stay worth the while and a memorable one.

A memorial mass for Actress and Journalist, Jayne Buckman-Owoo at the St Theresa's Parish of the Roman Catholic Church, Kaneshie in Accra on Friday, August 25, 2023, put away any doubt that she had indeed departed this world to the next.
Family members, friends and staff members of the Graphic Communications Group Limited (GCGL) were present in their numbers to remember Ms Buckman-Owoo, who until her death was a Staff Writer of the GCGL with the Graphic Showbiz, for all she stood for and how she affected all those around her positively.
Hmm! Difficult to believe but Ms Jayne as she was affectionately called by many is no more with the living and the sombre gathering last Friday of friends and family confirmed that.
We as mere mortals can only say, may the soul of the departed rest in perfect peace. Dayie Jayne Cordelia Araba Ntsifuaa Buckman-Owoo.
