Popcaan Proposes Meeting With Kwaw Kese To Meet Government Over Weed Legalization. | JAY SMART


Barely a day after a video clip of Popcaan smoking a substance believed to be marijuana went viral, the Jamaican artiste has proposed a meeting with Kwaw Kese and the Ghana government to strengthen arguments for the legalization of the herb in the country.

Kwaw Kese who was jailed in 2015 for narcotic offence had sparked a conversation on Instagram over authorities’ loud silence on the said video as he wondered if the narrative would have been same if the culprit were a Ghanaian.

Reposting the video which was captioned: “Only in Ghana foreigners can fuck up like this. When @kwawkese smoked in public he was arrested. So this means our law set only to control on the citizens but foreigners are free to go… the most painful part is Ghana police. None of them was able to speak the truth out because of the small coins which will be given out... Ooh Ghana”, Kwaw Kese asked his followers to discuss the issue at hand.

The Ghanaian rapper’s post attracted reactions from several people including Popcaan.

“I’m not a foreigner bro. We all came from Africa. Don’t be mad bro. Let’s try to organize a meeting with the government to legalize weed. It’s simple #unruly,” Popcaan’s comment read.

Responding to the call, Kwaw Kese said he was ever ready.

"Never mad bro. I'm in for same vibe," he replied.


Kwaw Kese was arrested for allegedly smoking cannabis in public in Kumasi on November 22, 2014 and was remanded into prison after making an appearance in court.

On Thursday April 23, 2015, the court finally reached a verdict as Judge William Boampong sentenced ‘the man insane’ to a day's imprisonment. He was also slapped with a GHc1,200 fine.

Despite the facing the full rigorous of the law, the rapper in 2018 said he relaxes with a ‘spliff’.

“That issue is a public issue but if I am doing it under my bed, that is me,” Kwaw Kese told Lexi Bill on Joy FM.

“I was in the [United] States and I saw Kwami Sefa Kayi was on your show and he opened up that government should consider legalizing; and not long ago, Kwesi Pratt was also on radio advocating the same thing. That tells me some of our big men or big boys that we know, that we adore so much are preaching the same thing we are preaching,” Kwaw Kese argued.

LADIES, STOP REMOVING YOUR PUBIC HAIR -GYAECOLOGIST

"Stop Removing Your Pubic Hair"- Gynaecologist, Dr Jen Gunter Warns Women A gynaecologist, Dr Jen Gunter, author of The honeypot Bible urges women not to remove their pubic hair, she warns that waxing or shaving creates “microscopic trauma” that can lead to infections. While the purpose of pubic hair is somewhat of a mystery, going “au naturel” is thought to protect the skin by acting as a barrier against the outside world. Getting a Brazilian may also reduce sexual pleasure, with pubic hair being connected to nerve endings that might help arousal, Dr Gunter added. Pubic hair “grooming” has almost become the norm, with many blaming the porn industry. Scientists from the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), asked more than 3,300 women about their downstairs grooming. Of which, 83.8% claimed to wax, shave or epilate their pubic hair, with just 16.2% leaving it intact. “Hygiene” was the most commonly reported reason (59%) for women removing their hair....
