What’s the Play About?
This theatrical production is a Kejetia vs Makola-style stage play, riffing on the real-life linguistic and cultural debate that erupted over the use of “Akwaaba” versus “Oobake” on national welcome signage. Expect sharp dialogue, hilarious courtroom antics, and biting social commentary as characters battle over identity, inclusion, and who truly owns the Ghanaian narrative.
