Afua Asantewaa Says She Intended To Host Second Singathon At Times Square But Changed To Kumasi

• Afua Asantewaa said she initially planned to hold her second Guinness World Record Singathon attempt at Times Square in New York
• However, the event was held in Kumasi, the capital city of the Ashanti Region in December 2025
• While she did not explain why the location was changed, Ghanaians are still awaiting the official verdict from Guinness World Records

Famous Ghanaian media personality and socialite Afua Asantewaa disclosed that she intended to hold her second Guinness World Record attempt at Times Square in New York.

However, her dream of holding her singathon outside Ghana did not materialise.

In a video on X, Afua Asantewaa was reacting to comments from people who claimed she was a supporter of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

She denied allegations that the NPP government gave her $1 million during her first singathon attempt and disclosed that people sent her messages threatening to destroy her event if she held it in Accra.

Afua Asantewaa’s second singathon attempt was held in Kumasi nestled in the Ashanti Region.

“Because you think I’m NPP and probably they gave me $1 million, which is never the case, you are threatening me. I remember when I was going to do my second attempt some people came into my DM ‘You are lucky you didn’t do it in Accra’. Come to Kumasi and stop it.”

She then disclosed that her initial plan was not to organise the second attempt in Ghana but in New York.

“You can threaten me but you can’t come to Kumasi and stop it? I could have done it in Accra. The interesting conversation is that those who know, know that the second attempt, we were planning to even do it at Times Square.”

Afua Asantewaa did not state why they later changed plans and organised the event in Kumasi. Meanwhile, Ghanaians are yet to hear the official verdict of the singathon from the GWR.
