In this raw episode of Konnected Minds, host Derrick Abaitey sits down with Dennis Tawiah - the man behind Akwaaba UK, Miss Ghana UK, and the architect who made it fashionable for Ghanaians in the diaspora to come home every December, revealing the exact moment when four young Ghanaian boys pooled their sound equipment together to become 90 Percent Hi Squad and fought establishments that turned Africans away, radio stations that refused to play African music, and a system that said "you're not allowed" until they became a force so undeniable that Choice FM, ACS societies at every UK university, and 4000 Ghanaians at Chinola's nightclub proved the community was ready.
