CEO of AfroFuture on Doing Business in Ghana, Court Battle with Coachella, & African Opportunities

[@blossom7325]

One thing I *love* about the Afrofuture festival is that you see so *many* black people from *all* over the world going to ghana to celebrate. When you go, you'll see Carribeans, Blk Americans, Ghanaians, Blk people from Europe, Blk ppl from Canada, and other Africans from other parts of Africa visiting. The experience is so freakin *dope* around December time in Ghana. I just *love* seeing *all* of us come together for December time. ❤❤❤

[@abby-a]

Exactly, it's a beautiful experience seeing blk folks from other parts of the world come together

The festival is dope . I have been rocking every year .👌

[@SteveSubunu-wk4up]

Any chance of staging Soul to Soul 2. It will be 52 years on 6/3/2024 since the last Soul To Soul was staged in Ghana. Please give it a thought

[@SteveSubunu-wk4up]

Bring back Soul To Soul festival to Ghana 🇬🇭

[@abigailadom1132]

It's a must to come to Ghana and celebrate

[@OPStudiosOnline]

Biggest Festival in Ghana, I am one of dem people who got hired by Afrochella, salute to them ✊🏿

[@FlyExpats]

Went to Afrochella in 2019 and again in 2022. One of the best festivals in the world and is definitely for the culture! A little more organization would go a long way but really looking forward to AfroFuture.

[@IluvEDM]

Abdul is a true *visionary* Iwish him nothing but the best he's a smart brotha. I hope continues to gain *more* success in the future with Afrofuture (Afrochella) and gain more success with other projects that he is working on outside of Afrofuture. He's a smart brotha. I wish him nothing but the best. 💯💯

[@KuttyJoe]

I'm in Ghana now, trying to get my resident status. I might swing through the next Afrofuture event.

[@aishasolomon7447]

He is so knowledgeable and brilliant at honing in on opportunities to grow business relationships. His life story before this point shows how people who leaving the continent and come back can use their knowledge and experience to grow their countries and create opportunities for their people.

[@kissPhamous]

Shout out to the organisers of afrofuture n other event organisers during December in Ghana . I love the events when I was in Ghana, last year was a blast looking forward to this year 🙌 💖

[@kilorparkes]

It is really beautiful to see us coming together to have a good time. But, I hope we will harness this energy to vastly improve our economic circumstances. And to, at least, reduce the exploitation of our natural and human resources by others.

I've been watching EYL since the pandemic, and I must say it felt dope to see a Ghanaian success story today. Also just found out you guys will end your tour in Ghana, I definitely can't miss that.

[@bilhas52]

Man you kats are off the chain. Y'all are New wall street and have torn down the old wall on wall street. Your business model is blessed and ground breaking. The accolades can go on and on. The biggest take away is, Success is a Result, and I can only imagine what y'all's results will be. I truly believe y'all will have inspired a super high level of business awareness and acumen in the African American community. I pray 🤲🏽 for complete success and complete awareness for our community because of this wonderful platform. Thanks for your sacrifice and work that's bringing together past and present.

[@peacefuljoy1197]

Yes to the community mindset and supporting local partners - cooperativism and collectivism 💛

[@surge2399]

I wish my people from my country would think like the Africans do like the part where he says African parents. Let their kids go home before they get too grown that's a plus for me. 🤔🤔

[@RyanMerch]

Congratulations Abdul!!

[@ackahkofiefrancis4289]

I'm proud of you bro, it tell me that, if the politicians are giving chance to these our young guys and ladies we can do some thing for the our country Ghana and africa .

[@dafingaz]

I’m going to be on that stage one day. Let’s go!

[@peacefuljoy1197]

I love the idea of AfroFuture chartering flights. Delta absolutely is taking advantage of the desire to return to Africa. And many other airlines are falling short and not offering direct flights. I also feel like we need more black owned hotels in Accra. I love the Kempinski but we need to make sure that the money spent in Ghana actually continued to circulate throughout Black communities.

[@abby-a]

This is *amazing* I really, really want to go to Afrofuture (Afrochella), so freaking *badly,* they do it every year in Ghana, and I *always* miss it 😂😂

@@palesamogorosi8939 the lady is correct in asking for the reason for your question. To point out she was a ‘tad’ rude, reveals some kind of hostility in the first place.

I notice that there is a lot of focus on Ghana. Africa is a huge continent with a lot of countries. There really needs to be a push by the other African countries to bring people back home. Africa has the resources and land while black America is a multi trillion dollar group....I see a perfect marriage here! But first Africa must stabilize its infrastructure........roads, healthcare, electricity, water etc. If people leave America they should be able to let go of their US citizenship and never need to return unless they are just visiting friends and family.
