Upon seeing this, the Ghanaian man thought he was being filmed secretly, a situation which pushed him to confront the tourist to ask questions.
A video circulating on social media showed the young Okada rider engaged in a tussle with the tourist from America, who is reportedly a travel vlogger, to get the camera from him.
'Why are you filming me? Bring it, why are you snapping me? You can't snap me. Let me see, let me see. I won't leave you, let me see the video." the okada rider was heard saying.
After several minutes of tussling over the video camera, sanity prevailed between the two gentlemen after the travel vlogger explained that he was not filming him.
"I'm not filming you. It's me, it's all me, bro," the American tourist said.
The explanation and assurance given to the Okada rider seemed to have satisfied him as he walked away peacefully.
