Popular Ghanaian media personality, Deloris Frimpong Manso, also known as Delay, has responded to derogatory remarks made about her by political activist Appiah Stadium.

Appiah Stadium was spotted in a video curated by by Plus 1 TV, where he revealed that he had declined several invitations to be on delay’s show due to his lustful desires towards her.

“If I had the opportunity, I would sleep with her,” Appiah Stadium confidently said.

Responding to his comment, Delay retweeted the video post with the caption “That’s not nice” with emojis expressing her utmost displeasure.

The Ghanaian media personality and entrepreneur, whose radiant presence on TV makes it seem as though her journey has always been smooth, opened up about her early struggles in the industry.

Taking to Facebook, she shared a post on May 30, celebrating her growth and success over the years, reflecting on how difficult life once was, even to the point where she couldn’t afford a decent meal.

Today, she proudly owns about 10 food brands under the Delay Foods label.

“It feels like just yesterday when I couldn’t afford a decent meal. Today, the small food business I started, Delay Foods, now has 10 product variants! And we’re just getting started! I’m talking about just 2004,” she wrote.

With no direction in life and nowhere to live at that turbulent stage in her life, Delay expressed gratitude to God for his 'mercy,' looking back on her journey until her current status.

“I had nowhere to live and didn’t know what to do with my life. I’m sitting here right now, wondering what I did right for God to be this merciful to me,” she reflected.

She ended her message with encouragement and inspiration for her followers that reads,

“Do not give up on yourself. Help is coming!”

In a separate development, Delay was called out by rapper Amerado for deleting their interview from her YouTube channel.

Amerado took to 'X' on May 30 seeking an explanation from Delay.

His tweet read, “Your interviews with me are no more on your channel. How did we get here, @delayghana?”

The question sparked widespread reaction from netizens, with many questioning why Amerado failed to consider a more private approach to address the issue after indicating in an interview that there is no bad blood between them.

In response to the criticism, Amerado wrote on X, “LOL, emotional maturity? Do you think a public interview on a public platform is a private matter? If you can’t bear public information don’t even think of private.”

Years ago, the Kumasi-based Ghanaian rapper clarified his relationship status with the award-winning TV show host and presenter, Delores Frimpong-Manso.

Amerado and Delay, for the past five years, were rumoured to be having an amorous affair.

The rumours were heightened in 2022 when Lyrical Joe threw shots at The Delay Show host during his beef with the ‘Obiaa Boa’ rapper.

But reacting to the rumours for the umpteenth time, Amerado said there was nothing going on between himself and the media mogul sexually.

Amerado, in his response to Berla Mundi on TV3 New Day, said Delay naturally adored him and supported his craft.

He also debunked the assertion that the rumours were engineered to make him popular.

“It was organic, It was natural. She likes me and she was willing to support my craft. There’s nothing like we did it for likes."

"I think it was more than that because Delay hardly opens up to people you get it and me being lucky to be closer to her means she forsaw the future. So I feel like what she did for me goes beyond liking someone and I reciprocated it.” he explained.

On how they became friends, Amerado revealed that their friendship blossomed after his interview with the show host.

“I went on the interview, and my story touched her heart; after that, we just became friends. You [Berla] and I could also become friends,” he maintained.

Kwaku Manu has concurred with Efia Odo’s assertion that he does not fit her criteria for a romantic partner.

During a recent episode of UTV’s United Showbiz, the discussion centered on the online back-and-forth between Efia Odo and singer Sista Afia. Kwaku Manu humorously suggested he would consider marrying both women, which prompted a straightforward response from Efia Odo. She clarified that Kwaku Manu is not her type and does not align with her preferences.

In a follow-up interview shared on X by @eddie_wrt, Kwaku Manu expressed his agreement with Efia Odo’s remarks. He noted that her comments were not intended to insult or hurt him, but rather to reflect the truth of their differing lifestyles.

Kwaku Manu elaborated that their lifestyles are quite different, and he does not envision himself in a relationship with someone like Efia Odo, who frequently clubs and dresses provocatively. He remarked, “Efia Odo was honest in her statement. She wasn’t insulting me, and she wasn’t trying to offend me. Given my lifestyle and values, it makes sense that she wouldn’t be my ideal partner, and vice versa.”

Ahead of the 2025 Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA), Delay expressed her disappointment over the exclusion of King Paluta’s hit song Makoma from the nominations.

Taking to her X page on Tuesday, March 18, Delay questioned the fairness of the selection process, stating that such incidents reinforce the need for constant prayer.

“How King Paluta’s ‘Makoma’ wasn’t nominated is why I keep praying without ceasing. Under your very eyes, what belongs to you will be snatched away if you cease praying,” she wrote.

Her comment has sparked widespread discussion, with fans and industry stakeholders echoing similar sentiments. Many believe Makoma was one of the most popular and impactful songs of the year and deserved recognition.

Meanwhile, King Paluta and his team have officially petitioned the TGMA organizers, seeking an explanation for the omission. They revealed that the song was submitted for four major categories: ‘Most Popular Song of the Year,’ ‘Record of the Year,’ ‘Hiplife Song of the Year,’ and ‘Songwriter of the Year.’

According to the team, Makoma not only gained massive airplay and public appeal but also met all ethical and moral standards required by the awards scheme.

As reactions continue to pour in, many are calling on the TGMA board to ensure transparency and fairness in the nomination process.
