He expressed gratitude to his basic school teacher and other key people in his life.
“Mama Acheampong trained me from childhood. She was my Agric teacher. When I was in school, I was always at the top of my class till I left. Many people do not know this, but many accuse my wife, Akosua Serwa, of poisoning me.
My wife will not do that. I had a spine surgery. It was Mama Acheampong who took me to the hospital, and Nana Twum paid all my bills. I am grateful to you all.” He announced to the audience that his final song he’d perform that day was ‘Akwanoma.’
“My life is a sacrifice. I will only do what I can, and when it’s my time to go, I will leave.” ‘Akwanoma’ is a Twi word that means ‘a lone traveller.’ The song talks about giving one’s best while there is life and leaving when each person’s time is up.
