We thought the song was special but the video is even better. Akwaboah has finally dropped the visuals to ‘Sanbra’ (Time to Return).
Sanbra is a single the singer cum songwriter released to commemorate ‘Year of Return’ and a soundtrack to future ‘Beyond the Return’ activities.
The video captures the sights and sounds of Ghana and gives the ‘wow! I didn’t know Ghana was this nice” vibe.
It might be early days yet but the video is surely a contender for video of the year. Iconic images run through and the editing is truly world-class to befit the timeless song that ‘Sanbra‘ could potentially become.

This is a video with huge promotional value and one that will resonate with people connected to Ghana and Africa, especially those in the diaspora.
