This is the last video that I upload from the series of my travel to Ghana in 2024 and it is a collaboration that we made with Akubire Matthew and Nyaaba Apole in Akubire's song "Danja miasi se oniame dowo". It is a song that we played all together during my trip to Ghana and that I freely/partly translated in my own language, Greek, using the form of traditional poetry "mantinada".
