That was when a 19-year-old lady called in, asking Akrobeto to explain a common Ghanaian Twi word.

According to the caller, she had heard several people say “Okukuseku” but had never found the English equivalent.

She implored Akrobeto to help her understand the word.

But Akrobeto, on the other hand, was caught by surprise.

“Okukuseku” is the first part of a common Ghanaian adage; naturally, Akrobeto mentioned the remainder in Twi.

But the 19-year-old insisted on an English translation.

The situation left Akroberto in a tight fix, and he burst out laughing.
