Mahama speaks on ‘y3n tie obiaa’ dance with Otumfuo
President John Mahama has spoken for the first
time about a video of him and Asante Monarch
Otumfuo Osei Tutu II dancing to Daddy Lumba’s
‘y3n tie obiaa’ song.


The viral video shows the President and the Asante
Royal dancing to a live rendition of the hi-life
song after they had jointly inaugurated the first
phase of rehabilitation work on the Kumasi
Airport.


The development project comprises rehabilitation
of the defective runway and installation of
airfield lights on the runway. It is meant to
facilitate night operations at the airport.

The absence of those facilities frustrated the
operation of airlines at the Airport at night.
Local airlines bore the brunt of the Airport’s
deficiencies.


Mr Mahama and the Asantehene were both elated by
the completion of the project and celebrated with
a dance later in the night after the inauguration
ceremony.

Addressing delegates of the governing party at
Saturday’s national congress held at the Baba
Yara stadium in Kumasi, the President said: “I
wish to say irrespective of how many videos are
shown of me and Otumfuo dancing, the fact is that
Kumasi Airport has witnessed a considerable
facelift far above what it was before we came and
met it.”

He said the improvement of the Airport will
benefit every Ghanaian.
