When you are a child this song hits differently and when you come of age it hits you also differently. I wish our childhood mind back then could have gotten the deeper message. Obra is such an authentic african sound and deeper lyrics.
RIP to all legends like Nana Ampadu, Dr. Paa Bobo, Akwesi Ampofo Adjei, Papa Yankson, Jewel Ackah, Bishop Okala, Reverend Bernard Nyako, Kwame Owusu, Suzzy Williams, Etc, may your legendary linger on
I went to the Passport sometime last year and I saw Nana Ampadu standing in front of the gate looking frustrated and the security there behaving as if they haven't seen him. I asked myself if this nation knows how to honour its legends. Do we have to wait till he dies before we acknowledged how immensely he has contributed his quota to national development? We are truly sick in the brain. Anyway, Nana, for me , this is the best song ever in Ghana. Stay blessed.
It pains me that, we have thrown away our blessed high life music full of lessons and even Godly messages, and has now embraced kortokiokus hip life music in the name of civilization. God bless Nana Ampadu and all our high life legends.
Each time I listen to this song, I get so emotional. It gives me the opportunity to reflect over my past, present and future days ahead. It inspires me to want to do more so my kids don’t go through what I went through as a kid. Thank you Nana Ampadu your song speaks to my soul
This is retrospective 🎵 to me, my senior brother as a father WO Essilfie Ghana Air force, made me love all your this song, am choke in tears, my his song rest in peace. Nana you will always be remembered, may your soul rest in peace. Charity.
I am still listening in 2019. The only song that guides and inspires me. Obra eni woara. Hard work and dedication. Thank you Uncle for this song. Bretuo Nana.
Apart from the inspiration, this song is like a prompter for me. Anything I listen I'm reminded that 'Your life is you and for that matter you must rise up and do something profitable with it. No one will live your life for you.
wanting to grow up not knowing being old goes with a lot of headaches and responsibilities... well done to our parents. still listening in September 2019.
Thank you, Nana. Thank you for all you have done for us. Your song about taxi drivers encouraged me greatly during cab driving days in Chicago ( blizzards and all). Indeed, Obra e ni wara, am pa!!! Nyankopong adara ma e be ye yie! Thank you and sleep well in the LORD YHWH YSWA MSYCH.
Hope he got an award before passing on. Ghanaian artists especially legends do not get the credits they deserve till they pass on without any acknowledgement to what they have contributed in the entertainment field. Rest well Nana Ampadu our legend.
Obra ene wo ara w'abo. What a music! Full of life lessons. At times I wonder if blacks have heads, bcos if this man is a white man you will see how he will be honoured and paraded for the world to honour him. And even blacks will celebrate him on our radios TV stations as a god. But our own we don't even know him, and are rather celebrating those ones who are rather spoiling and rotting the youths with nonsensical musics. Are we to let this man die before we heap honours on him? Oh Ghana! Mercy!!
Nana I went back to play old tunes and I came across Obra. Thank you so much for all these good lyrics and the wisdom behind. Can you please Nana get your lyrics translated so that our children in the diaspora can listen to the wisdom you offer? I'm begging you Nana even if it means downloading for a fee. Remain richly blessed Nana.
This music get me inspired in Life while frnds and families are alive butt I was ignored and dump ✔✔💯 God bless u daddy now I can call my self a man, Life not easy buh I pass true 💯💯💯💯😢😢😢😢
Nana kwame Ampadu when I was child l was think My father don't want be rich man now I know many things in the life now am grow up am suffering and taking care of my wife and daughter it's not easy Nana always am advice myself with your music Nana obra is great teacher and lucky dube said its not easy Nana I remember you am in Italy
My father's favourite song, I never understand why because, growing up in a country where English language is the first language but having the time for him to explain the lyrics to me, it has been my favourite song too as well as my siblings too .it has also been our inspirational song every day....Great song and God BLESS you with his glorious love and riches..... Its powerful choice of song from my father us too....
Good Morning.. Nana . I do remember when I heard this song. I was fragile young, bearly 7 years but I do remember I wept. This was normally played on Peace fm. I find the words so true and timeless they depict the real life we are in and bring you to the reality that you are life and what you make. Now, I will want to rise from my slumber and get to do what is expected of me to bring no regrets to my soul. Thanks for sharing this with us Nana. so inspiring and authentic.
I remember how my father as GBC District Station Manager in the 70s and 80s use to play all these good songs. God bless you Daddy. When it comes to Music, High Life is our identity. Let's promote it and never let it die please.
I love this song from my childhood although I did not understand by then, but now I can say is the most educative music in life. Nana you might not live forever for me but I will say live long and enjoy your sown fruit of labor .Am always listening to this music when things are rough to keep myself going.Thank you and God bless you....

Ghanaians are waiting for this legend to die before they honour him, Adofo, Nana Ampadu, Nana Tuffour, Yaw Sarpong , Daughter of glorious n many more has to be honoured by naming some street or interchange after them.
Ei Nana, I remember I came to your house near Hotel Bambolino to interview you in 2004 for the Graphic Showbiz when I was working with that newspaper. it's an experience I'll never forget.
When you are a child this song hits differently and when you come of age it hits you also differently. I wish our childhood mind back then could have gotten the deeper message. Obra is such an authentic african sound and deeper lyrics.
RIP to all legends like Nana Ampadu, Dr. Paa Bobo, Akwesi Ampofo Adjei, Papa Yankson, Jewel Ackah, Bishop Okala, Reverend Bernard Nyako, Kwame Owusu, Suzzy Williams, Etc, may your legendary linger on

Anyway, Nana, for me , this is the best song ever in Ghana. Stay blessed.
