The interview which was recorded on December 7, 2023, had Afua Asantewaa explain the dos and don'ts of the attempt.

Mrs Aduonum noted that miming is not allowed and that it has to be in the form of karaoke which is singing along to instrumentals.

"Drumming is not allowed. We are just going to use the instrumentals with the lyrics popping on the screen. But the audience or the public cannot sing along with me else the record is spoilt," she said.

She further stated that fans can dance, wave, and clap, and emphasised that they cannot sing along.

Ghanaians react to the rules as sing-a-thon continues

Many Ghanaians expressed concerns in the comment section and on various social media platforms if Afua Asantewaa had not broken any of the rules.

However, one rule which concerned many and which was evident was the crowd singing along as she sang. But some educated others that there was a soundproof glass used and it would not temper with the audio from her singing.

The fans singing doesn't affect her cos the glass is soundproof

But we’ve sang along saaaaa oooo. Even her teammates inside I saw some singing along last night

ophori_links said:

Aah but people were singing along at some points oo

funghana_ said:

That’s why she is in a soundproof glass, to prevent noise from interrupting her voice

She’s in glass isolated. This is straightforward. Not rocket science!

How I knew the manager to focus on her health like getting her coconut water for a break and neem tree leaves tea. That’s the secret the Indians used. It helps in dehydration and more strength
