She shared a clip of a seminar with her schoolmates from West Africa Senior High School at the University of Ghana.
Many Ghanaians, excited to find the girl from the advert after so many years, reacted to the video in the comments section.
In the advert, Derah, who was very young at the time, was seen inside a Melcom store admiring televisions when Asamoah Gyan approached her.
He noticed she was wearing a cute blue shirt with his name and number printed on the back. With a smile, he introduced himself but the little girl refused to believe him.
To convince her, Gyan juggled the Jabulani football from the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, but she still did not believe he was the real Asamoah Gyan.
Frustrated, the footballer left the store with his shopping. Outside, paparazzi surrounded him, and the girl finally realised who he was. However, by the time she understood the truth, his car had already driven away.
The advert, which promoted Melcom as a shopping destination for everyone, including celebrities, became a big hit. Many people praised the little girl’s acting skills.
A throwback video of the commercial was recently shared on TikTok, and Derah commented on it, reminiscing about the experience.
