Read his full message below:
When I received your order like many other customers that you wanted shoes I was surprised and elated. You were actually the first of your sort to place an order through the normal process. Because of your unique sense of fashion and your brand as a promoter of Ghanaian fashion, we decided to approach you with a proposal.
We developed cold feet when you scheduled to meet us because we considered our offer a bit ridiculous considering what we were coming to you with. But we were pleasantly surprised by your response when we told you to be our brand ambassador.
It turned out be a very short conversation that we had expected. I thought that day we met your human side not the celebrity in you. But long time of association has proven that you are truly a nice guy. To dazed us more, you gave us a blank cheque to tell you whatever we want you to do and you'd oblige.
You indeed have given more than we agreed on and makes people wonder what fortune we might have given you. You are a man who keeps to his words. In times when we breached our agreement, you still gave your all. You have shared with us many ideas.
You have sacrificed a lot for us and one of the many occasions I want to share is when we spent the day and night of 6th December 2012 for a shoot. We felt very uneasy keeping you for that inordinate duration but you were cool koraa. You demystify the myth around "celebritiness". You are very real and focused. I love how you have time for your family. You kind is rare in industry.
?#?OkyeameKwame? the Rap Doctor, on behalf of the ?#?HorsemanShoes? team, I say thank you. You have been an amazing support to us. We can never be grateful enough. We look forward for an ever lasting relationship. And we hope to make it up to you for all your sacrifice.
Our tribute will not be complete without the mention of your friend, manager and wife Annica Nsiah-Apau. Mrs OK, y3 da wa se papaapa. You are an amazing woman. And of course to your right hand man Aboakese3, big man we thank you for your support.
God bless you and take you to enviable heights of your career.
