Akple Festival on March 6

The third edition of Akple Festival aimed at offering patrons the opportunity to enjoy local delicacies is slated for Mmofra Place Dzorwulu on Ghana's Independence Day, Monday, March 6.

Apart from the variety of food that will be displayed on the day, there will be performances from Adaha Dance Band, God’s Gift Brass Band and The Borborbor Music.

The theme for the event expected to run from 10 am to 11 pm is Discover the GoodLife and the organisers, BrandwithEchiri promise a swell time for patrons.

Talking to Graphic Showbiz, Ebenezer Echiri- Mensah, CEO of BrandwithEchiri said, “This year's edition will increase vendor stands to contain the numbers with the introduction of a Night Market. A variety of local staple foods will be available even in the night while patrons enjoy a thrilling atmosphere. It is a chop bar experience that allows you to enjoy food the Ghanaian way as we celebrate Ghana's 64th Independence Day”.

He added that his team has put in measures to provide adequate and tight security for patrons in an even bigger, better and more amusing atmosphere.

Mr Echiri-Mensah revealed that the two previous editions went well and was well attended and he is hopeful the upcoming show will be better.

“After two successful editions, we only hope and pray the third one will be better and I’m confident that will happen because we  started preparations early and we have put a lot in place”, he added.
