A true party animal with drive and ambition is the best way to describe this cute, funny Ghanaian DJ. Musically gifted, if he’s not on air or writing scripts, he’s out hosting concerts, singing and rapping to keep the audiences entertained.
Samuel has also been featured in a few tracks on a few local musicians’ albums. When chilling out he enjoys novels by Lawrence Sanders, John Grisham and Jackie Collins as well as munching on some Rice and Beef.
Samuel often hangs out at the Palm Hill Guest House in the Eastern Region. He sees poverty, unemployment and teenage pregnancy as prevalent and pressing issues in Ghana.
He values the importance and significance of the media as he thinks that it is the “mouth piece of every corner in society and thus determines how people act.”
Samuel would like to take a diary into the Big Brother Africa house to make a record of everyday happenings.
He thinks a relationship would be the best thing for him in the house and given the chance would take it “extremely far!”
