How social media reacted to Despite’s son’s glamorous wedding

A lot of buzz and chatter has generated on social media following the traditional marriage ceremony of the son of one of Ghana’s most affluent, Osei Kwame Despite.

The event which happened at no other place than one of the premier residences of the elite in society, Trasacco Valley in Accra, drew people of similar class.

Despite being only the second month of the year, Kennedy Osei Asante’s ceremony has been touted as one which will go down in the history of Ghana as one of the biggest, most colourful in 2020.

Dr. Osei Kwame Despite, owner of Despite Media, and his brother Dr. Ofori Sarpong were captured in colourful kente clothes with beautiful traditional slippers, 'ahenema', to match.

The groom who is the General Manager of Despite Media was also clad in a nice kente clothe and flanked by about 60 groomsmen in brown kaftan.

Ghanaians on Twitter have been reacting to the ceremony with #Kency2020.
