Those telling her to change the name of the hotel, please cut the crap. When you open your business, then you call it an African name. Since you did not contribute a dime to this business, you have not earned the right to tell her what to do. To each his own. Let her success inspire you to create your own and then you name it what ever you want.
Beautiful hotel!! Congratulations my sister! I live in California where those popcorn companies are and we believe that ANY completion is good because it sparks innovation! So YES we will tell you how...
Naming this hotel after a European country, San Marino, gives the Colonizers undue credit by name. It is Africa that should receive the accolades by Name. Africans continue to show too much deference to Europe.❤️💫🌍
Pls change the name ASAP . Let’s Emancipate our minds from the mental slavery in Ghana 🇬🇭 (AFRICA) Dr. Kwame Nkrumah laid a solid foundation and a blue print for us to learn and follow from.
I"am very proud to see our Beautiful woman's are now on top of the business ! may our Africa great God's continues bless you all for long life Amen ✍🏽🙏🏼⭐⭐⭐💪🏽☝🏽❤️💰
I'm American and I agree that the hotel name should be Ghanaian rather than European. But the hotel should still be supported because it is Ghanaian owned and operated. The hotel can be rebranded under a new name at a future date. Do not focus only on one minor negative and disregard the major accomplishment.
Good interview Odana. Congratulations to the lady. As a hospitality educator in the USA, I must say the staffing issue is not unique to Ghana. Turnover is high in the hospitality industry everywhere.
So refreshing! I simply love the natural hospitality evoking from both of u. Nana Ama turned her challenges into opportunities. I am hoping Denta will also do an interview with her hubby the eye doctor.
Congratulations power to you and all women in Africa wishing you every success to your future ❤️❤️❤️🇯🇲 and to all diasporarian women coming to the continent success to them too
I’m totally disappointed with the name of the property. It’s about time we have total confidence in our selfs and brand. How long is it going to take for us to emancipate ourselves from the mental slavery? Dr. Kwame Nkrumah laid down a solid blue print and foundation for us as GHANAIANS AND AFRICANS.
I love our progress as a nation but I hate the idea of two steeps forward five steps backwards. Pls! We can do better in our forward struggle. Let’s rally around the flag. Forward ever backwards never.
I love your hotel I'm coming in next 2 years Stokely Toronto Canada maybe I'll come and stay a couple nights keep up the good work stay safe all my blessings to you and your family
Nana Ama, its great you have built your own hotel in Accra but as an African you should have named it after you or Baba Kwame Nkrumah. Ama & Akosua big up to my beautiful sisters.
You have great and we congratulate you for being such a wonderful wife. I have a plea, I think other things Ghana needs is “Bone Density Scanning Machine” Many people are dying of Osteoporosis because there’s no such machine to scan them.
@@ODANANETWORK simple questions and you're giving him a 14-question form to join your association. Do you guys give information without hoping to receive anything in return at all?
@@rillyjo5810, Watch the video again. Listen to the host. Coca Cola, Pepsi, McDonald's, etc have secret ingredients and formuli they do not reveal to other companies or individuals.
Data don't you think, ghanaian same bussines, seeing themselves as rivals is the fault of ghana, whether gh bussines promotion council,or ministry of trade and industry, look i work in the hospitality industry in spain, one the best in the world, government forces them to colobrate, you colobrate or you leave,if your hotel is fully booked,and clients come,you have and office to call,they will intend call a vacant hotel,government in ghana don't want innovation and just allowed everybody to do what they like, even in the construction industry, in spain if you are given a road contract they include the number and size of trees you are to plant along that road, if not you will not be paid,just look at poukuase interchange and circle how many trees are planted,
Good news, beautiful hotel with colonizers name which is awful . The main missing question is her source of funding. How did she get funding for a hotel that building and decor lasted for 24 months? Is it normal for an eye doctor and his wife to get a prime area land and put up this edifice in 24 months? Again…. what’s her main source of funding???
Her source of funding is from your lazy ass pocket...she said from the beginning that they own a very big eye clinic and she had a lodge at west legon.. She planned with her husband and they obviously thought outside the box ffs...😏
From the USA: YOUR COLOR Hi, Madam you have a beautiful color. Please, do not touch YOUR SKIN. Say Hi, to your husband for me. He made a beautiful choice. Women who do not bleach are respected, serious, polite, and have good aims in life. I really admire your color. May the Good Lord bless your business. Have a great day.
Why are you afraid of her short fall, de-colonize your mind. Coca-Cola, Samsung, Hyundai, ExxonMobil, Ferrari, Julius Berger, Hilton, etc. are family names. How many African business names exist, talk more of doing well and 10yrs or more old? Embrace your local name, the Arab, Chinese, etc use their local names and alphabet, use yours for business, protect it, and the business lives forever. STOP been slave in your own doing and complaining of racism while you encourage it. Won't be surprise an European is behind it, time will tell and expose the real story.
A NAME is EVERYTHING....I have PLANS to make a PILGRIMAGE to Ghana and will NOT Seek nor Care to have a LOOK at it BECAUSE of the NAME...But, that's just MY OPINION....It's About TIME WE TAKE CONTROL Without Being ASHAMED of OUR HERITAGE..
@@franciskaboagye I think it’s time to school you Ghanaians! Listen! we just came out of war about 30yrs ago. Despite the war, in such a short time Nigeria has more billonaires than any black group in the world. Our GDP has been growing with approximately 5% annually for the last 25yrs. In such a short time we have the worlds richest blackman who has never lived outside Africa. We are the black group in the world with the greatest amounts of businesses in and outside the continents. Fastest growing music industry in the world, 2nd biggest movie industry in the world, Largest economy in Africa, Largest banking industry in Africa. Largest tech industry in Africa, Largest petroleum industry in Africa, Largest exporters of agriculture in Africa, Largest African automobile manufacturers, Largest contribution to science, technology, literature and art amongst any black group world wide. The list goes on and on,,, I cant type every thing! We are owning airports in Europe, large businesses in America and China despite racism and discrimination for our skin color! No one can ignore the fact that we have tried hard for a group in our situation! We are indeed intelligent and determined. No one can doubt that! We are doing it at home and abroad! All blacks worldwide should stop the hatred towards us. Its not gonna help! My advice! We sure have our problems but honestly put some respect when ever you talk about Nigeria! There also killings in America daily. Every country have their own problems! Never talk down on us because of our problems when you can’t achieve half of what we have achieved in our situation!
@@freshoilonyou so funny what achievement are you talking about,the Name Ghana alone shld put some senses into ur faculty,being big doesn’t mean quality or better than a small but a Mighty nation like 🇬🇭
@@amoafoowusu6657 is that all you picked out of the write-up? Put away sentiments and your pride. You cant de-validate any thing I wrote, regardless of how you feel! Truth cannot be defaulted! It doesn't matter if I'm a Nigerian. Truth is truth!
@@amoafoowusu6657 If you read the write-up you won't ask that question. I will only answer you if you can de-validate anything in my write-up. I will not enter into any sentimental argument with you. Even if you say Ghanaians are white. That's up to you. But if you want to to have an intelligent conversation, only then I'd answer you.
In England here l have never seen a hotel named after African name is only in Africa that we name our hotels after European names.let awke from this colonised mentality
To those wondering, they named the hotel after an European country because they might have a business partner from that country. It might be a partnership ownership.
If you listen to what she is saying, you will not say that. It's a mindset, Africans think giving it a foreign name is prestigious. She talks about Bank loans from Ghanaian Banks. A foreign partnership will Provide enough funding.
Good job but next time use local name too much inferiority complex in Ghana San Marino is not right i thought it was a foreign owned i like to patronize local Ghanaian business anytime i am in Ghana .
Is there anything positive about Ghanaians/Africans? This story is supposed to be encouraging others. Yet we are here painting Ghanaians /Africans as unhelpful. There is no such perfect country, you know? Celebrate sometimes, when one of us gets it right, while not neglecting what needs correction.
This is what I don't like about Odana's interviews. She always try to dredge up difficulties that comes the way of returnees in their investments. I doubt if she knows what challenges the so called developed UK she came from. This our country, only sixty years young. How can you compare a country that is over a thousand years old like the UK, France, Germany and others. She always puts me off and make listening to her interviews very oddious.

I keep saying most ghanaians are jobless cos they’re lazy and dont put in any efforts when offered jobs. My uncle has employed 80% non ghanaian ls cos they put in the work, very punctual, always with good ideas to help build businesses and willing to learn.
Great video. you've remind me of what someone once said❤ Making money is an Action, keeping money is behavior, Growing money is Knowledge. I once attended seminar and ever since then i been waxing strong financially, and i most tell you the truth.
@@jacobjackson9835 Haha you don't have to be surprised Mrs Lauren is really good and everyone loves genuine services,she helped me recover what I lost trying to trade on my own.
Beautiful hotel THE VALUES: INTERGRETY IS THE KEY,NO DETAIL IS TOO SMALL, TRUST IS EARNED EACH AND EVERYDAY, EXCELLENCE IN ALL WE DO, GENUINE CARE AND CONCERN, RESPECT AND VALUE INDIVIDUALITY, INSPIRING GROWTH AND PURPOSE FOR LIFE, TAKING RESPONSIBILITY, YOU ARE IMPORTANT. THANK YOU
Congrats. Well done, but please change the name to something Ghanaian or at least African. Great job though. Will try and visit the next time I am home.
@@garyhouston2679 You being on RU-vid make me believe you are using a smart phone. Just go straight to Google or RU-vid. There's is nothing u can't learn on the Internet nowadays.
You go girl! 💃 Your business your standards You named it what you want to call it. 💪 I had an issue some Ghanaians came into my place tell me what to change on my US company. These comments on status quo people are very engulfed with their unnecessary beliefs. The Popcorn story - that is how we Roll in the US. 💪 Tell her if she needs hospitality training reach out to me. I'm very affordable. I'm an ex-flight attendant. I do behavior assessments for employees before you hire. My NGO is in Ghana.
