The white man will do everything to support his child with gift and also make sure he gets the necessary education. If I didn’t get that much education, it does not mean I don’t see the essence of education, many think comedian actors are foolish but it`s never that way, but the joy of making others happy” he said

The founder of Kwaku Manu International school said the school which has been in existence for the past two years is due to the love and support he gets from friends and loved ones with special regards to some Blacks Stars players who did a video advertising the school.
