When news of the expedition made it online, some social media users had expressed their shock that a Ghanaian automobile brand had missed out on the opportunity to showcase their brand of vehicles to the world.
It was alleged that the Kantanka automobile company was contacted to be a part of the expedition, however, they failed to show up at the preliminary meetings prior to the journey.
In an interview on TV3 New Day, Richard Anim, one of the members of Wanderlust Ghana, revealed they had contacted the Kantanka company, however, they go no response.
“We approached Kantanka but they didn’t even give us the time of day or give us the audience, they didn’t bother with the meeting,” he pointed out.
He also shared that Kantanka was not the only company who refused to collaborate on the historic event. According to him, they had the same experience with Nissan Motors.
“We approached Nissan, in fact, Kwabena Peprah bought a Nissan strictly for this purpose to incentivise and get us some sponsorship but they were like nah they’ll offer a discount but not sponsorship,” he stated.
