As part of his tour to Africa, which he announced in December 2025, the American streamer visited Ghana, where he toured various towns, cities, and attractions during an action-packed itinerary.

He visited the Asenema Waterfalls, where he received a massage from some beautiful women, and also went to the Akuapem King's Palace to experience Ghana's rich culture.

IShowSpeed also went to Independence Square to share some fun and interact with his local fans who had gone to the location to meet him, including a risky backflip.

Prophet Ogyaba speaks on IShowSpeed's tour

In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh on the TikTok page of the man of God, Prophet Ogyaba criticised Ghanaians for running after Speed during his arrival in Ghana.

"What is so special about this boy?" he stated.

According to Ogyaba, Ghanaians are ignorant of how to make their time useful, which is why they are always seen following celebrities around.

He claimed that elderly men who are old enough to be IShowSpeed's parents were seen following him just to have a photograph with him.

The man of God further stated that the only difference between the streamer and the ordinary Ghanaian is that he utilised social media to his advantage.
