He expressed reservations about relying solely on Ghanaian investors, citing past experiences where their promises often went unfulfilled. \u201cI\u2019m not gonna take that money and go and do this because a Ghanaian wants to see the place full. Hell no, no Ghanaian investor is going to do that,\u201d Samini explained.<\/p>\n<p>He pointed out that it\u2019s not in Ghanaian culture to readily invest funds in such endeavours, and he doesn\u2019t fully trust Ghanaian investors to support such a project.<\/p>\n<p>Samini concluded that typical Ghanaian investors may engage in discussions and appear supportive, but when it comes to financial backing, their commitment tends to wane.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, he remains steadfast in his belief that with the right backing and promotion, he could achieve the remarkable feat of filling London\u2019s O2 Arena, making him a force to be reckoned with on the global music stage.<\/p>\n<h3><strong\/><\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"peace_black_text_4\">Source: Daily Guide<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"clear:both\">&#13;<\/p>\n<tr>&#13;<\/p>\n<td><span class=\"peace_red_text_1\"><\/span>: <span class=\"peace_ash_text_1\">Opinions expressed here are those of the writers and do not reflect those of .  accepts no responsibility legal or otherwise for their accuracy of content.
