“Please come with us on this Journey to the West if you know the nooks and cranies of Dubai, but you’ve only seen Nzulezu in Pictures?. Remember waakye is tastier than Pizza and costs less than half a bag of cement.

As a Ghanaian, my trait transcends my genes and my food,” he said.
Mr. Eshun-Famiyeh further highlighted his experiences which defines him as a Ghanaian, including his admiration for Ghanaian songs, the food and culture and the first-ever gentleman of the land, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.
