the tall list of performers included contemporary Highlife singers Akwaboah, Kuame Eugene, Kidi and Kwaku Afro.<\/p>\n<p>Kuame Eugene\u2019s \u2018Confusion\u2019 and \u2018Angela,\u2019 Kidi\u2019s \u2018Odo\u2019 (a.k.a 30 million) and \u2018Say You Love Me\u2019 and Kwaku Afro\u2019s \u2018Awulaa\u2019, simply got many of the guests sweaty.<\/p>\n<p>Okyeame Kwame then took the stage deliver some of his hit songs like \u2018Faithful\u2019, \u2018Small Small\u2019, \u2018Anaa,\u2019 and \u2018Medo Mmaa,\u2019 to crown the night performances that caught many couples dancing the night off.<\/p>\n<p><b><\/b>Buffet<\/p>\n<p>Adding to the experience was a two-course dinner which saw the guests serving themselves from the incredible list of wines and healthy dishes prepared by the Group Executive Chef of Alisa Hotel, Mr Livingstone Asikoye.<\/p>\n<p>It was simply a romantic sight to behold as some male guests took the trouble to serve not only themselves but their female partners, in the spirit of the affectionate love that Valentine\u2019s Day epitomises.<\/p>\n<p><b><\/b>Prizes<\/p>\n<p>Some couples also won amazing prizes from a draw.<\/p>\n<p>Management of Alisa Hotel, represented by the Managing Director, Mr. Samson Masha, awarded a couple with weekend stay at the hotel, and another couple with a night stay.<\/p>\n<p>The CEO of Galaxxy Perfumery, Dr Asante Appiah, also awarded a guest, Ms. Uche, with a designer perfume.<\/p>\n<p>Management of Total Fitness Health Centre also awarded some guests with  free months\u2019 subscription at their state-of-the-art gym.<\/p>\n<p><b><\/b>Interactive Session<\/p>\n<p>The night, perhaps, would not have been complete without the interactive session which the MC, Kabutey Ocansey, led the guests into.<\/p>\n<p>Amidst laughter and surprises, the event saw some guests answering questions about their partners which they least expected, as some male guests also received plaudits for rendering love poems and acapellas for their partners.<\/p>\n<p>Questions such as \u2018what is the bra size of your partner?,\u2019 \u2018what colour of dress was your partner wearing when you first met?\u2019 and \u2018what was your partners\u2019 nickname at senior high school?,\u2019 elicited interesting answers which set the night agog.<\/p>\n<p><b><\/b>Testimonials<\/p>\n<p>Some participants could not hide their delight and satisfaction at the end of the event.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn all honesty, I thank my wife for buying the ticket and bringing me here. Even that, I almost didn\u2019t come because I am not the outing type. But I think Okyeame Kwame and his team have done well by giving us this incredible experience tonight. Hopefully next year, I will be the one buying the ticket and pulling my wife along,\u201d Mr. Kwame Baah Acheamfour, a Deputy Director at the National Communications Authority (NCA), said.<\/p>\n<p>Another guest, Mrs. Gloria Afare Quist, a staff of the Cocoa Processing Company, added: \u201cI have really enjoyed tonight. It was awesome; great settings, great music, great food. I feel good to have come and to associate with the event.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b><\/b>Background<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Flaunt Your Lover\u2019 is an exclusive annual dinner and music event started last year (2017) by renowned musician Okyeame Kwame and his wife, Annica<\/p>\n<p>According to Okyeame, the rationale behind the event was to re-orient the minds of lovers and couples about the celebration of Valentine\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI and my wife realised that the conversations around Val\u2019s days were becoming more of sex, condoms and Viagra use. We, therefore, decided to change the narrative by asking couples to now flaunt their lovers in a much positive way,\u201d Okyeame explained.<\/p>\n<p>The maiden edition was held at the Silverbird Cinemas &amp; Lounge inside Accra Mall, which also registered a huge patronage of both married and dating couples.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s event was organised by Okyeame and Annica in collaboration with Alisa Hotel. Other partners included EIB Network Ghana, Galaxxy Perfumery, Total Fitness Health Centre, Santeshair, Biegya Bitters and Mefscuisine.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by:  updated by:  --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>xxxxxxxxxxx of Friday, 23 February 2018 Source: 3news.com 2018-02-23 From the amazing food and drinks that were served, through spectacular music performances and the colourful ambience to the intimate interactive sessions, it was a memorable experience for couples who participated in this year\u2019s \u2018Flaunt your Lover\u2019 Valentine\u2019s Day event by Ghanaian musician Okyeame Kwame.
