Pastor Kingsley Gyamfi, the partner of the late Dr. Grace Boadu, has stated that before she passed on, he sensed within himself that he was about to lose something.
Speaking discreetly, the preacher couldn’t decisively confirm whether the revelation pertained to Grace Boadu or not, as he provided conflicting answers regarding whether her death had been revealed to him clearly or not.
During his interview with Deloris Frimpong Manso on The Delay Show, aired on April 20, 2024, and monitored by GhanaWeb, Pastor Gyamfi mentioned that he had left Kumasi for Accra on the same day the unfortunate incident occurred.
He said he intended to welcome his partner from abroad to Accra. However, upon receiving no responses to his phone calls, he said he chose not to visit her house at all, contrary to his usual practice of spending his nights there whenever he comes to the city.
He reflected, “If I weren’t powerful, why would the woman I came to Accra for that very day not answer my call, and why didn’t I go to her house to find out why, especially when that’s where I usually stay when I’m in Accra?”
Explaining further, he shared that, “Normally, if I call her and she doesn’t respond, I go to her house. But that day, I decided not to go because I felt in my spirit that something bad was about to happen; that I was about to lose something.”
When asked if he knew she was what he was about to lose, he replied, “No.” Despite being pressed on why he didn’t go to her house, the pastor maintained that he felt compelled not to.
While he chose not to visit her house given the circumstances, the preacher dismissed suggestions that he had let Grace Boadu down by not showing up when his calls went unanswered.
He stated, “How have I let her down? It had already happened, and her soul had departed before my arrival, so there was no need.”
His response prompted a question from Delay, who inquired, “So, you had a revelation, right?” to which he affirmed, “Yes.”
Meanwhile, he has denied dating the late Dr. Grace Boadu for riches.

According to the press release by the management of the clinic, Dr. Boadu returned from a two-week health course in South Africa on Sunday, January 28. She, however, died the next day.

Due to her association with some showbiz personalities, the arts and entertainment industry mourned her passing.
Meanwhile, the family has yet to officially announce the cause of Dr. Grace Boadu’s sudden death.
Funeral held

Newly appointed assistant coach of the Black Stars, John Paintsil, is demanding a sum of GH₵80 million cedis in damages for alleged defamatory comments made by some Ghanaian journalists against him on certain media platforms.
Reports state that Paintsil has filed a lawsuit against Patrick Osei Agyemang alias Countryman Songo, Christopher Nimley, Saddick Adams, and Veronica Commey.
In addition, Paintsil has sued media houses such as Multimedia Group, Omni Media Limited, and Angel Broadcasting Network, who gave the platforms for the journalists to make the supposed defamatory statements against him.
Paintsil’s charges stem from allegations that he used a fake coaching certificate, noting that those allegations have lowered his reputation in the estimation of right-thinking members of society.
According to the writ, filed by Nobisfield Chambers, Paintsil is demanding GH₵20 million cedis each in general damages from the media outlets.
Additionally, Osei Agyemang, Nimley, Saddick, and Veronica individually have been sued for GH₵5 million cedis each in general damages for their defamatory comments.
As part of the lawsuit, all defendants are required to issue an unqualified apology and publicly retract the defamatory statements through the same medium of publication.
The defendants are expected to enter appearance within eight days from the date of receiving the summons, either in person or through legal representation.
Failure to do so may result in the plaintiff seeking a judgment in default of appearance.
The Ghana Police has arrested four students of Presbyterian Boys Senior High School (PRESEC), Legon, and two adults for staging the kidnap of one of the students.
According to a police statement issued on Friday, April 5, 2024, preliminary investigations established that the kidnapping was a plot by the group to enable one of the students to extort money from his parents to fund his travel abroad.
“The Ghana Police Service, through an intelligence-led operation and investigation, has arrested six (6) persons including four (4) juveniles who are all students of Presbyterian Boys Senior High School (PRESEC), Legon, Accra, for staging a kidnapping incident. The two (2) adults among the six (6) are Isaac Kissi Adjei, alias Kofi Black, and Courage Teiko, alias Timmy.
“Preliminary investigations revealed that one of the juveniles, in an attempt to extort money from his parents to enable him to travel abroad, conspired with the others to stage the kidnapping incident. In the process, they demanded an amount of Three Hundred and Forty Thousand Ghana Cedis (GH₵340,000.00) as ransom from the alleged victim’s parents,” the police statement said.
According to the police, the juveniles, together with their adult accomplices, succeeded in collecting an amount of GH₵20,000 from the total amount of ransom demanded before their arrest.
“The Investigation further disclosed that the juveniles, together with the two others, succeeded in collecting an amount of Twenty Thousand Ghana Cedis (GH¢20,000.00) of the total ransom demanded.
“In line with best practice, the identities of the juveniles have been withheld and their parents and guardians have been duly informed, as Police investigations into the incident continue,” the statement added.
Earlier this week, it was reported that a 17-year-old student of Presbyterian Boys Senior High School (PRESEC), Legon, had been kidnapped and held for ransom by unknown assailants.
According to the report, the student was kidnapped on March 28, 2024, while on his way from campus to home during the Easter school break.
The alleged kidnappers were said to have initially demanded a staggering 34-million-naira (approximately GH₵340,000) ransom from his family and threatened to sell the body parts of the kidnapped students should the family refuse to send the money.
With threats of harvesting their son’s organs if they failed to comply, and picture evidence of the student having been harmed by his captors, the desperate family negotiated the ransom down to GH₵20,000.
The family reportedly sent the money via mobile money, but the kidnappers refused to release the boy unless an extra GH₵300,000 cedis was paid in full.
