This means Afua Asantewaa would be singing non-stop for days, with only a few minutes of breaks in between.

Therefore, her family's presence at Heroes Park would undoubtedly provide a much-needed boost to her morale.

Unlike her first attempt in December 2023, Afua Asantewaa's ongoing second sing-a-thon has garnered significantly less attention.

However, the event is gradually gathering momentum with Ghanaians eagerly following her progress on social media.
