In a video shared by Big Shaq, the rapper is seen holding a big pestle and standing over a big mortar.
The attendants gave him some tutorials as to how to pound the fufu and he started with Majimbo later coming to sit by the mortar to 'drive' the fufu.
A few minutes after starting to pound, Big Shaq felt the tiresomeness of the work and was heard 'me sisi', which translates as my waist.
At a point, Dapaah nearly tore off the Kenyan comedienne’s hand when she was ‘driving’ the fufu whilst he pounded.
Majimbo also got the chance to pound the fufu for a few seconds even though she could barely handle the heavy pestle.
Big Shaq and Majimbo's adventure ended in a triumph as they eventually got the fufu prepared and ate portion which happened to be the Kenyan's first time eating the Ghanaian delicacy.
Watch the video as shared on Instagram.
