Why coming to GHANA was the best MOVE!!! moving to ghana

Kuukuwa was born in Ghana, Accra, and joined her parents in Germany from the age of 4 years where she lived most of her life. She decided to move out of her comfort zone and chose London, the UK as her study option to complete her Bachelor's degree in Event Management with Thames Valley University. Whilst dating her now-husband, both had something in common... One day to relocate to Ghana. This finally came to reality after sacrificing 7 years traveling back and forth between London and Accra, where her husband started with livestock farming and as a real estate developer. They took the 2020 pandemic as a chance to relocate the whole family to Ghana. Happy with the decision, the whole family agrees that it is the best move and healthier for the family.

Kuukuwa successfully completed training in customer service, Human Resources and first aid.
As a hobby, she enjoyed organising school term activities for children and helped family and friends organise events. This led her to join the GUBA enterprise team as a Coordinator for Exhibitors.

Currently the couple have established a coldstore, Enam Market in Nsawam which Kuukuwa manages whilst her husband continues as a farmer and a real estate developer. The children attend school and nursery as normal.
