Ghanaian media personality Kobby Kyei delves into the profound capabilities of the human mind, shedding light on the influence of belief and suggestion on wellbeing.
Kyei’s insights reveal a fascinating aspect of human psychology, particularly in overcoming fear and healing from illnesses through the power of the mind.
He illustrates this point by referencing common practices within religious contexts, where pastors utilise what he terms as a “trick” to facilitate healings.
During the discussion, Kyei highlights instances where congregants are given prophecies to drink water during healing services, emphasising the importance of adding faith for the promised healing to manifest.
According to him, instilling a sense of faith and belief effectively harnesses the mind’s potential to catalyse healing processes within the body.
Kobby Kyei shared his personal experience, asserting, “I say to the glory of God, I hardly go to the hospital because I have been able to practise and use my mind. So anytime I am sick, like a small headache, I shake it off. I will be fine.”
He addressed the vulnerability of individuals who may fall prey to such practices, emphasising the need for self-belief in the healing process.

Renowned Ghanaian blogger Augustus Koranteng Kyei, popularly known as Kobby Kyei, has urged for a united effort among stakeholders to regulate the social media space.
Emphasizing the necessity for content creation space regulation, Kobby Kyei highlighted the potential dangers faced by content creators due to the lack of oversight in the social media landscape.
Expressing concern about the negative impact of non-regulation, Kobby Kyei pointed out that social media has become a vital avenue for employment, stressing the need for policymakers to ensure a safe environment for content creators.
“A lot of people have graduated from school and have capitalized on social media and it is saving the unemployment rate. What are the policy makers doing in making sure that [ the social media space is safe]. I think that we should make it a point to meet some stakeholders on the content creation space because Warris was complaining about the Paypal and all that.
“People are also messing up in the space and they are getting a lot of numbers whether it is benefiting people or destroying people, you have no clue. So, I believe that the policy makers should have a conversation about how they can meet stakeholders in the content creation space or social media…there is a lot of money in the space and so they must protect us,” he said on The Afternoon Show, Monday, February 19.
During his appearance on The Afternoon Show, he urged a dialogue with stakeholders in the content creation space to address issues such as payment platforms and overall safety.
Kobby Kyei also advocated for education on social media at the basic level, encouraging the Ghana Education Service (GES) to incorporate it into the curriculum.
He emphasized that social media is the “new era,” and educating young individuals on its responsible use is crucial for success.
“To GES, I think that they must also educate the young ones coming from basic to senior high school and to university. Don’t always try to teach them to apply for jobs after school. They need to know that social media is not always standing in front of your camera and shaking your body.”
Joined by Anita Akufo and Godwin Namboh on The Afternoon Show, Kobby Kyei delved into the financial benefits of social media and discussed how the youth can leverage this powerful tool for the betterment of society.
The Ministry of Education, MoE, has refuted claims that schools in parts of the country are suffering from food shortages.
An October 11, 2022 press release signed by Kwasi Kwarteng, the Ministry’s spokesperson said there had been adequate food supplies to schools including the St. Paul SHS and Minor Seminary in the Volta Region.
GhanaWeb had carried a report of a viral video shared by blogger Kobby Kyei, in which a group of 10 students of St Paul’s are seen purportedly sharing one fish during dining.
The video, having gone viral, particularly on Twitter, triggered condemnation of the feeding situation in schools.
In the said video, a student with a spoon is seen carefully dividing the fish in what looks like palm nut soup into several pieces to share with other students seated around the table who had been served rice.
But the MoE statement titled: ‘MINISTRY OF EDUCATION REFUTES ALLEGATIONS OF FOOD SHORTAGE IN SENIOR HIGH SCHOOLS,’ read in part: “The Ministry of Education has noted with surprise news publications and media discussions which purport an imminent closure of some Senior High Schools due to shortage of food. Specific references were made to some schools in the Volta Region.
It continued: “The Ministry wishes to place on record that our checks reveal adequate supplies of food items have been made to the schools in question. The Ministry however takes cognizance of recent disruptions within the food supply chain but assures parents and guardians that they have been addressed. Consequently, all Senior High Schools in the Country have received an adequate supply of food items.
“The Ministry wishes to assure the public of its commitment and willingness in providing quality and timely supply of food to all Senior High Schools. We entreat the Public to disregard such reports,” it concluded.
In May this year, some Senior High Schools reported food shortages while threatening to close down if nothing was done about the situation.
The Regional Conference of Heads of Assisted Secondary Schools (CHASS) in the Northern, Eastern, Central and Volta regions were worst affected by the crisis and demanded that either student are made to feed themselves, or the schools shut down.
However, the government intervened and had supplies delivered to the various schools to avert their closure.
The headmistress of Avatime Senior High School, Rebecca Mawusi Veny, wrote to the Volta Regional Director of Education to request permission for the students to begin feeding themselves as the school was running out of stock.
Similarly, the headmaster of Alavanyo Senior High Technical, Rev Samuel Pius Elewokor, wrote to the Volta Regional Free SHS Secretariat for urgent supply as they have resorted to feeding their students twice daily.
