Creating employment opportunities through chain of restaurants fulfilling – TiC
Ghanaian Music legend, TiC known in private life and Nana Kweku Okyere Duah, has said creating employment opportunities through his chain of restaurants is fullfiling for him.
TiC who is still making waves in the music industry has opened another branch of his Gennex Pizza Restaurant and Grill at Weija, White Cross, in addition to others in Accra, Konongo and Kumasi.
Speaking to The Spectator, he revealed that in the coming days, he would open a new rest-stop on the Accra-Kumasi stretch.
He said it was fulfilling to be creating employment avenues for young people to also make a living.
“I started my music career at Dansoman, and I have a restaurant there, to say thank you to the people for all they did for me, I have opened other branches employing a lot of people, and this gives me joy and fulfillment,” he said.
TiC is of the view that this is his way of giving back to the society for the support he had received in his music career over the years.
This notwithstanding, he called on Ghanaians to patronise it, to make his dream of opening more doors for the youth a reality.
The ‘Kwani Kwani’ hit maker urged others in the music industry to combine entrepreneurship with music to propel their career to higher heights.

Von Sinu releases debut single ‘Thank You’
Von Sinu, an upcoming gospel musician, has released her debut single titled ‘Thank You’ which is gaining popularity on the airwaves and streaming platforms.
‘Thank you’ seeks to appreciate God for his goodness and faithfulness in her life.
In an interview with The Spectator in Accra, Von, who is also a fashion designer said “looking back at my life and what God has told me about myself, I was grateful.
She said she had to record it and later sent it to a friend who has been very instrumental in her being a gospel singer.
She said though there were other songs written and recorded, she thought it was prudent to release ‘Thank you’ as the Bible urges believers to give thanks in Psalm 92:1-2: “It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name”
The song is available on all digital platforms including Youtube, Spotify, Apple music Deezer and Tidal.
