Why Oxlade has received love in Ghana

YEN.com.gh caught up with popular entertainment pundit and music analyst Bryte Tobinco, who highlighted the factors that accounted for the hospitality Oxlade has enjoyed in Ghana. He said:

"Ghanaians are known to be very hospitable. We are known to receive people very well. Ghanaians being more hospital to foreigners than their own is not entirely true. In our hospitable character, we still strive for quality, and when people bring quality, we gravitate towards that quality. Anytime you hear a song that has what it takes to turn heads, Ghanaians always tend their heads, and likewise, when they see foreign goods with the same potential, they turn their head."
