Kunta, a member of the Prempeh Class of 2006, knew exactly how to let the crowd
respond to the songs. He started with a song he has composed for
"Amanadehyee" and then went on to produce some "freestyles." The room was so
much alive.
Kunta rocked the crowd
Stone, the Prempeh Entertainment Prefect of 2001 who gave meaning to entertainment
during his days at Prempeh College took over the microphone. It was
astonishing to know that the current students of Prempeh know Stone more
than their current entertainment prefects. As soon as he took the microphone,
the audience bellowed,"who's got the mic right now." This was how Stone
useed to bring the crowd to its feet during his days at Sofoline. He was
really dumbfounded as he held the microphone. Stone also sang a song for
Prempeh College which goes like, "se wo se wo ko Prempeh yi wo green shirt"
literally means,"if you are really a Prempeh student, show your green
shirt."
Out of the blue entered the man of the moment, the man who has taken the
radiowaves by storm and the man who knows no boundaries when it comes to
Drive Time on radio. Spinash Freeman is the man. DJ Spinash of FOX FM was made to control the console as soon as
he got to the Assembly hall by his contemporary, DJ Premiere of FOCUS FM
also in Kumasi. Love was brewing in the air. Spinash thrilled the audience
with some instrumentals of the Bradez before the songs followed.

The rehearsed dance of the trio was really luscious. A lot of people joined
by dancing as well while some of the students moved to the stage to dance
with the Bradez. Songs like, "One gallon" and "Mate Ahwe Wo Do Mu" brought so
much festivity in the Osae Assembly hall. In fact, if the wooden floor had mouth, it
would have implored the students to spare it some life. Okyeame Quami after
the performance said, he had wished to be an Amanfoo but could not make it
so urged his brothers to make it to Prempeh for his sake. He was very merry
that his brothers have made it through Prempeh so shares a lot of the
traditions of the college.
Despite the transportation problems suffered by Lord Kenya, he was able to
arrive at the campus of Sofoline and entranced the whole place. As it is
characteristic of him, Lord Kenya, the rap heavyweight champion made the
crowd feel the show with his dance styles and charismatic moves. Kenya is
undoubtedly one of the best in Ghana. The students who thought the hiplife
star wouldn't make it were by themselves with joy after beholding him.
The programme came to end after a dance competition between Pearson and
Opoku Ware house with Pearson coming first.
It was amazing to see so many journalists rushing to the stage after each artist's performance, to conduct an interview
for the evening radio shows. Okyeame Kwame was bombarded with questions as to why he left the group Okyeame. Interestingly, most of the onrushing
interviewers were members of the uninvited press.
The happiest day of our life
When the program finally ended, we came to the realisation that the whole campus was in darkness because there had been
a loss of power for a long period of time. Were it not for
our foresight in bringing our own (rented) backup generator, our pogram would have been unsuccessful.
This day will forever be remembered by all the student body and the people
in Oseikrom. The journalists and presenters present have more to say after
the day. The students praised prempeh.org for the occasion and wished they
could have these programmes once every year.
