Island Frimpong's back-to-back award win

Medikal and Fella's daughter attends the school founded by veteran Ghanaian actress and filmmaker Yvonne Nelson, and her back-to-back Best Reader recognition signals that the youngster is thriving academically.

Island Frimpong graduated from the movie star's preschool, Just Like Mama Day Care in East Legon Hills, a few months ago in July before moving to the Yvonne Nelson International School, making this latest honour all the more special as fitting.

Island was also named the Most Creative pupil in her graduating class.

For Medikal and Fella Makafui, two of Ghana's most recognisable entertainment figures, the recognition is a clear source of joy.

Despite their high-profile personal lives and divorce in 2024, both parents have consistently been visible in Island's upbringing, and moments like this one suggest that visibility is paying dividends.
