In an interview with BEATWAVES, Kojo Soboh expressed his excitement about the strong patronage by Ghanaian and other foreign nationals at the EMY Africa Expo, considering it was its maiden edition.
He also mentioned that the three-day event had 24/7 security all over the premises, assuring the safety of patrons. The vendors were well-behaved, providing good services as attested to by patrons.
Kojo Soboh expressed hope that the next EMY Africa Expo would be an upgrade to the maiden edition, stating, “With the EMY Africa team, we inspire greatness through the events we host. Patrons should anticipate the next EMY Africa Expo.”
