At the lavish invite-only birthday party, Twum Barima met with fellow Ghanaian mogul Osei Kwame Despite and greeted him.

While they were chatting, the Akwatia-based businessman, who was also wearing white, put his hand in his pocket to remove a stash of money.

It took a while before Twum Barima could remove the money from his pocket, probably because of the amount he had.

When he removed the stash of money, which looked to be all GH₵100 notes, the businessman sprayed all of it on Despite.

After spraying the money, several people, particularly men who were around, rushed to pick up the money from the floor, creating a major spectacle.

Despite security whisked him away even before those present could start picking up the money, possibly to avoid potential risks.
