Ghanaian born UK-based singer, Nana Richard Abiona, better known as Fuse ODG has urged Africans living overseas to be proud of their origin.

According to the musician, when he got to the United Kingdom “UK” he realized the perception about Africa is so bad that he tried to disassociate himself from the African race.

He further added that, as he grew older, he realized he was born an African and should embrace his roots instead of trying to shy away from who he is.

He shared the video on his social media page, saying, “It’s funny, how much I have grown out of the perception the Africa is inferior. When I got to the UK, I realised that the perception of Africa was very negative. It was so intense that as I was growing up, I did everything that would make fit into the British lifestyle.

“But as I grew older, I got to understand who I’m supposed to be. So I’m on a mission to change that perception. I want young black people to be proud of who they are.

“Now things are changing, people are now embracing who they are and it’s a good thing,” he said.
