Released under the BaamuRecords.Com label, the very entertaining, still-videography, Part I, we understand, is an homage of sorts to the People of Ghana and the Government and People of Japan.

You see, as far as we know, Japan is the one country in the world, outside Ghana, Africa, where some of the best-tasting chocolate bars are called “Ghana”, after Ghana. For the longest, it has been a super-cool shout-out to Ghana as a leading producer of cocoa beans, the main ingredient in chocolate and other cocoa products. 

[We are reminded that Prof Lungu, a multi-talented and a serious professional, a globetrotter by some measure, spent several years living and working in Japan nearly a decade ago].

Here, if you want to go straight to the video:

You may want to first finish reading this important introduction, though!

Accra to Bolgatanga Fa Kumasi on VIP Coach, the video documentary, is a serious, purposeful drift into critical conversation and discourse about Ghana, through Ghana, from Accra to Bolgatanga on “VIP Coach”, figuratively, of course, aboard V.I.P., the Inter-City passenger transport system that changed travel within Ghana in many positive and important respects. 

Accra to Bolgatanga Fa Kumasi on VIP Coach is a must-see video, and the word is that the soon-to-be released multi-track music CD of the same title will feature 5 songs, all original music by Prof Lungu.

As the musical journey goes, the video begins in the 1950s and 1960s, with American Diasporans, from the first Independence Day, to today’s “The Year of the Return” program.

Get on the “VIP Coach”, 60 years-plus since it all started on the first Independence Day back around 1957, in the new Ghana.

MESSAGE:  The “Travel ….Tour..…Ghana” video extols the spirit and presence in Ghana of Dr. W. E. B DuBois, Dr. Sylvia Boones, Malcolm X, Dr. Martin Luther King, Dr Mawiyah Kambon, Movie Star Julian Mayfield. And there, in contemporary life, President Barack Obama, US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, Mr. Danny Glover, Mr. Michael Jai White, Mr. Steve Harvey, members of the NAACP in America, among many, many, others, past, and present.

It is “The Year of the Return”, after all, isn’t it!

The tour Ghana documentary 2X video (17:27 minutes), features numerous cities and towns in Ghana, from Accra in the south all the way to Wulugu and Bolgatanga in the north, interspersed with many quality hotels on the grounds in Ghana, as the documentary video and journey evolves. Towns and cities featured also include Nsawam, Nkawkaw, Koforidua, Ejisu, Nsuta, Mampong, Agona, Atebubu, Kwame Danso, Sunyani, Ejura, Tamale, Salaga, and of course, Kumasi, to name a few.

As a social and cultural product for the grassroots, we can report that there are numerous personalities in the video, both Diaspora Americans, Ghanaians, etc. These individuals embody the best in what Ghana represents today in media, culture, and global affairs, thanks to the foundation laid far back in the 1950s and 1960s by Gold Coasters and Ghanaians, themselves.
