Although Rap Dacta, Okyeame Kwame was not able to raise the US$ 40,000.00 he needed to support the Ghana Paralympics Team, the warm reception he received last Friday at the +233 Jazz Bar and Grill was enough for him.

Okyeame Kwame who was able to raise $7,500 at the show told Showbiz he is very optimistic the rest of the money will be raised by the end of May. Okyeame who turned 40 on April 17 decided to raise funds to support the paralympic team to mark his birthday celebration.
Fun time for some of the paralympics
“With shows like this, I know people do not carry large sums of money on them but with $7,500 pledges, I believe my team can raise rest money through the benevolence of the corporate world by the end of May.
Boogie time for some fans
“ So far, we have received pledges from kind people such as Lawyer Odeneho(GH¢10.000), Midland Savings and Loans($3,000), Obour, MUSIGA President( $1,000) and Evangelist Nana Yaa Owusu($ 1,000).
“ Also, I am making a plea to other members of the public who want to support the Ghana Paralympics Team travel to USA to participate in this year’s Paralympics in Rio to send their donations via mobile money to this number 0240341678”, he added.
Wiyaala had a good time with the paralympics
Expressing his appreciation to everyone who showed up at the event, he said “ None of the 12 artistes who supported me on the night took money from me. It was amazing how they easily accepted to come and support me without even asking for transportation.
“To everyone who graced the show especially my fans who made it possible, I say God richly bless you for the love showed me last Friday” he added.
Ranging from music, comedy, poem and magic, the show dubbed “Music and Wheels” started at 9: 30 pm with Okyeame Kwame performing his Mr Versatile song. He went on to feed patrons with songs such as Sika, Anaa, Woso, Mesan Aba among others as the show rolled.
