GH Poki, Ghana’s best social media comedian has the talent to be a great musician

On the stage, in the village, in town, and everywhere, there is a lone hilarious comedian in Ghana, commonly known as GH Poki, close to his audience by entertaining them.

GH Poki, like other black comedians such Eddie Murphy, Bob Cole, Super OD, Will Smith, etc, has multi-talents, associated with music and acting at the same time and so important how much people love this comedian.

Ghana in the past has enjoyed many famous comedians such as Opia, Bishop Bob Okala, Bob Cole, Super OD, Kojo Stamp, Wofa APC, and many others on television.

Even though Poki is using social media, without any exposure on Ghanaian television, in no time, he has become one of the best young comedians Ghana has ever had.

Representatives of various creative professions regularly try themselves in the vocal field, therefore, it’s amazing Poki is also a good musician since he is aware that singing is one of the frequent auxiliary options in creative activities.

For some time, I have been watching closely the comedy videos of GH Poki on Youtube, after I had my first glimpse of his activities on another Ghanaian entertainer on the social platform ‘Magraheb tv.’

Poki is a comedian I am struggling to know his real name. I tried everything possible that I can, yet couldn’t find his real name.

However, my observation after watching his number of compositions concluded he is even better than many famous Ghanaian musicians in the country.

I don’t think GH Poki knows how good he is yet. Even though he has been singing, his compositions are likely to break the music charts, if radio and television stations start giving this young man a little exposure.

When Black Sherif released his “Second Sermon,” the fame of that musician spread quickly like a bush fire but Sherif became more popular after GH Poki played both the comedy and reggae versions of the music.

His recent stage comedy and composition dedicated to Bob Okala is a masterpiece.

There is no doubt that GH Poki has what it takes to become one of Ghana’s or Africa’s greatest musicians if he will concentrate seriously to show the world what he can do in the field of music.
