Akpeteshie, locally made Ghanaian dry gin is dangerous–perhaps even poisonous. Yet, struggling Ghanaian musician-K.K Fosu says he loves it and has given his reasons.

In a recent interview with Kasapa Fm, K. K. Fosu said he loves and chooses Akpeteshie over any other locally made alcohol.

“I love Akpeteshie because it’s locally made and pure. There are no chemicals in it but I wouldn’t promote drugs intake. I needed to stop because I was advised and moreover it wasn’t good for my health. I’m a family man now, I’ve kids and I have to focus on their future in order for them to have a better life,” he said. 

He continued: “I do take in alcohol and my favourite is ‘Akpeteshie’ but the only high drug I ever did was marijuana and that was a long time ago but I don’t do it anymore.”

Maybe if K.K Fosu stops his Akpeteshie consumption, he will have his next hit song…
