“So guys I just finished with my essay conception and I was looking for a song that I can play to empower and inspire the kids but I couldn’t find any,” she said in a video posted on blogger Kobby Kyei’s page.

She continued; “Ghanaian musicians, the danceable tunes are too many, we need songs that the kids and listen to and learn from. So please make some very educative, inspiring good music that the kids can listen to as well.”
