The viral term “Kpa Kpa Kpa” became popular when Mohammed was interviewed by a Joy News reporter on his general assessment of the Ghanaian economy.
Even though he was not all that educated to explain the real problems that he is facing, he was able to use a quick term to assess how he is able to manage with five children in the difficult economic situation of the country.
As Mohammed struggled to even express himself with the term “Kpa Kpa Kpa”, it made the video very funny and circulated quickly on social media thereby making people all over to use the term to explain any difficult situation one finds him or herself.
It was after Mohammed’s “Kpa Kpa Kpa” that we heard a new hit single from popular Hiplife artiste Guru on the term “Kpa Kpa Kpa” to explain hardships and challenges that people are facing in life; hence, similar to Mohammed’s concept.
In Guru’s music video, the interview Mohammed granted to the Joy News reporter was also added with the idea of reflecting the real hardship of a Ghanaian man with five children and the real idea behind the term.
One of the telecommunications companies Glo is currently running adverts that has the term “Kpa Kpa Kpa”. According to CitiFm online, Mr. Rowland Odolokor, Head of Retail Sales at Glo Mobile Ghana explained that the “Glo Kpa-Kpa-Kpa” package is a special ‘Akwaaba’ offer designed to heighten the network experience for all newcomers onto the Glo network. It empowers the consumer and enables the subscriber to make uninhibited calls and use more data to browse at a far cheaper rate.”
Again, there is a programme on Ghana Television (GTV), Sports plus on the Africa Cup of Nations 2015 analysis during the day that has 'Kpa Kpa Kpa file killer segment'.
Mohammed in an interview on Neat FM’s “Entertainment Ghana” programme explained that Hiplife artiste Guru and telecommunication company Glo must pay GH¢50,000 in a form of royalties for using his term “Kpa Kpa Kpa” for commercial purposes.
