In the video on X, the white woman, after introducing her sister and her dog, speaks about what they are doing in the snow.
“My dear, how are you? Look, me and my sister are walking on the snow and my dog, Bob, is lying there. Now we are not wearing shoes. We are wearing a sort of plank fixed to our shoes and moving around on the snow with it. It’s called ski.”
She continued to show how the ski worked. The white woman continued to speak Twi and said her dog, Bob, would pull her after she wore her skis so she could move around.
“When I wear my ski, Bob will pull me. We are going. Bob, pull me away, Bobiiii! I’m going and Katherine is behind me, my sister. And there is Bob here.”
In the video's comments section, one person claimed that the white lady is called Abena B and lives in Àlesund, Norway.
Another added details and stated that Abena B did her exchange programme at the University of Ghana, Legon.
“They are Norwegians; the one speaking Twi did an exchange programme in Legon during her university days.”
