Obroni Man Speaks Fluent Twi With An Accent: “Your Wife Has Done Well”

• A white man from Germany amazed several social media users when he spoke impeccable Twi with his Ghanaian wife
• Many attributed his ability to speak the Ghanaian language to his wife who comes from the Ashanti region where Twi is the predominant language
• Several social media users commended the white man for learning and his wife for teaching him despite his background

A white man who is married to a Ghanaian woman exhibited his knowledge of a Ghanaian dialect when he spoke the language fluently.

Even though the white man spoke Twi with an accent, one could tell that he understood the language and could express himself.

In a TikTok video, the white man who has been named Kofi showed off his wife, Yaa. He described his wife’s pregnancy and how she was walking.

“Family members, look at my wife. She is heavily pregnant. See how she is walking. She is so pregnant. Family members see this beautiful pregnancy.”

Yaa responded in Twi and said:

“You impregnated me. You don’t sleep at night. My legs and my waist hurt.”

Kofi then sympathised with his wife, still speaking Twi.

“Oh, sorry,” he said to his wife.

The white man and his wife live in Germany. They met in Koforidua, in Ghana’s Eastern region where Kofi volunteered in a hospital. At the time, coincidentally Yaa was doing her clinicals as a student nurse.

It seems Yaa taught Kofi her language and he has not disappointed her.

After dating both in person and long-distance, Kofi and Yaa got married and moved back to Germany where they started life as a couple.

The two welcomed a boy in December 2024. During Yaa’s pregnancy, they took a social media break and are now sharing their journey to becoming a family of three.
