In a video on X, most of the people who helped unveil the sculpture wore white signifying a possible celebration. In Ghana, many people wear white when there is a joyful celebration.

About five people stood by the sculpture ready to unveil it to the public. There was a bigger white cloth covering the sculpture placed on top of another see-through fabric.

A song was being played in the background which many of those unveiling the sculpture moved to as they undertook their respective duties.

As the men and women lifted the larger cloth covering the sculpture, the statue was partly revealed. However, a second cloth beneath it had to be removed for the final unveiling, making the statue fully visible to everyone.

Those present started jubilating immediately after the statue was unveiled.

The sculpture was carefully crafted and resembles Prophet Adom Kyei-Duah to the tee. He was sculpted wearing one of his signature white attires with a blue shirt.

It depicted Prophet Adom Kyei-Duah standing with his hands interlocked, which has become his signature pose while standing.

It was not immediately clear where the sculpture has been erected but the setting appeared to be a house painted in white and gold. The sculpture has been placed at the entrance of the building.
