Lovers of African Wear were no doubt, present in their numbers to purchase and see for themselves new African and Ghanaian designs in vogue.

She said that within the past five years Emeralds clothing had provided jobs for young tailors, stylists and models.
Mr Senyo Hosi, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ghana Chamber of Bulk Oil Distributors and Executive Chairman of Cleave and Tours, opened the facility.
He commended Ms Pearl Flolu for a good job done.
“This could be a game changer as it promotes our culture, creates jobs and takes Ghanaian clothing line to the whole world,” Mr Hosi emphasised.
He said Ghana could only optimise the potentials of people like Ms Pearl Flolu for the benefit of all, especially those who desired to learn a trade for self sustainance.
The launch was graced by dignitaries from different fields; Sarafina Tetefio, CEO of Lotus Mart, Patrick Donkor, CEO of kekle Securities and Dela Zuttah, CEO of Stockit, and James Etornam Flolu, DCE of Afadjato South.

Ghana need industry bank to fund talents — Rocky Jigga

Ghanaian UK-based afrobeat singer, Emmanuel Rocky Gyeniaw Jnr known in entertainment circles as Rocky Jigga has expressed the need for an industry bank to fund talents.
According to him, this will help Ghanaian musicians to compete effectively with their foreign counterparts.
Rocky Jigga believes that many talented musicians have coiled back into their shells due to funding challenges.
“There’s more room for improvement. The industry needs more investors from both the government and private sector at large. We need an industry bank that funds talents, events and everything entertaining,” he said.
Rocky Jigga recently released ‘Slow Down,’ featuring Ball J.
The song which came with its video was produced by B Boat and it emphasised a man’s preference for an ideal woman irrespective of the size.
