Thank You For This Honour-Afua Asantewaa Tells Ghana Tourism Board Over Ambassadorial Role
Afua Asantewaa has expressed her gratitude to the Ghana Tourism Board (GTB) for appointing her as a tourism ambassador following her remarkable achievement of completing the longest singing marathon by an individual. The validation of this feat by the Guinness World Records is still pending.
Shortly after her extraordinary accomplishment, the Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA) decided to bestow this honorary title upon Afua Owusu Asantewaa Aduonum. This new development has succeeded in adding a new layer to entertainment in Ghana as far as Afua’s singathon feat is concerned.
This appointment acknowledges the significant positive impact her sing-a-thon attempt has had on the country’s reputation. During the after-party held in her honour at Akwaaba Village in Accra, a representative from the GTA made this announcement.
“You are going to be one of the people championing to the whole world that there’s a country called Ghana; it’s a lovely place to be; they have great people who are resilient, who are tenacious, who have drive, who have talent,” stated the GTA member.
Despite completing a grueling five-day singing marathon, Afua Asantewaa appeared vibrant and full of energy at her after-party. She expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support she received from Ghanaians.
“I didn’t know it was going to be this way. The reception from you as Ghanaians has been amazing. At a point, I was like, okay, I can decide not to do this, but you took the challenge on, you made it personal, and there was no way I was going to let you down. I know you had your doubts, but God also has His plan.”
“I can’t say much. All I will say is a very big thank you to the Ghana Music Industry as well, to all the artistes, to all the celebrities that supported; your encouragement went a long way.”
In light of this, Afua Asantewaa expressed her gratitude by posting on her Facebook page, acknowledging the honour bestowed upon her. Additionally, the board sent her a grand cake as a symbol of their new partnership and to congratulate her on her remarkable singing achievement.
