Ghanaians will have an encore of the celebration of Kwame Nkrumah’s achievements at Trigmatic’s Osagyefo’s Night Concert slated for October 4, 2024 at Alliance Francaise.

This comes after Ghanaians observed a holiday in honour of Ghana’s first President on his birthday, September 21, 2024.

According to Trigmatic, this is the third edition of the concert which was inspired by a reflection of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah’s great efforts and achievements in the history of Ghana, especially in the areas of arts and theatre.

Trigmatic made an appearance on Joy FM’s Drive Time on Joy, and told the host Kofi Hayford that he travelled around Africa and anytime he mentioned his country of origin, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah’s name came up strongly.

Speaking about the concert’s birth, he revealed, “when I looked at how they eulogized him, I [thought to myself] we don’t do this that much, so why not do something a concert around Dr. Nkrumah”.

The decision was heavily supported by fellow broadcaster and friend Antoine Mensah.

“I read a bit more about some of the things that Dr. Nkrumah did for arts and it blew my mind. Since then I said let’s do this and call it Osagyefo’s Night, if not for anything, to remind people in the arts space that this is a man that had the arts at heart and actually did things that would enable the industry”, Trigmatic further told Kofi.

The 2024 edition of Osagyefo’s Night Concert will present story-telling performances, an art exhibition, as well as live music performances by headline artiste Trigmatic and a host of his friends from the music industry in Ghana. For the first time since its inception, the concert will specially feature theatre, a concept that connects Trigmatic’s story to Dr. Nkrumah’s story.

Trigmatic, known in real life as Nana Yaw Oduro-Agyei is expected to perform about 20 songs live on stage with Adwenpa Band, and says the theatre facet of the event “is a collaborative work with Abibigromma Group and Ghana Dance Ensemble”, with narration from celebrated Ghanaian poet Nana Asaase.
