Aside from that, he opened up on legal research and other things he focuses on as part of being a student.

"Since I came to the US, how many shows have I done? Do you know why? When I wake up I have Civil Procedure to read, when I wake I have legal research and other things; the system is such that I don’t have time to host my programme. Since I came, this is the sixth show."

His comments come after Captain Smart alleged that Okatakyie was sponsored by the New Patriotic Party to relocate to the US so he could compete with Kevin Taylor.
