“The challenge are lack of skate

shops, skate parks sponsors & the

governments support.”

What are the things you are working on right now with ‘Skate Na�on
Ghana’?

I am working on raising funds to build obstacles I can use to teach in my
community.

In one of your video clip it says ‘Skate Na�on Ghana’ along with
’Mission 100’. What does this stand for?
Mission 100 is a vision or task that is meant to reach out to teach at least
100 people how to skate.

There is another non-profit organiza�on called ‘GhanaSkateboarding’.
Are they doing anything different to what you do?
Yes. They just post about the Ghana skate scenes.

Do you collaborate with other NPOs like Sandy Alibo’s SurfGhana and
the Skate Gal Club? If so how does that collabora�on look like?

We are almost the same people with different ideas. Surf Ghana is the
business side of ska�ng & Skate Na�on Ghana are the people who skate
to make the community grow. So surfghana is the party and skate na�on
ghana are the people who make the party fun for people to want it more

by organizing events.

Skate Na�on Ghana has been covered in Vogue. How did that happen?

Thanks to Sandy Alibo.
