Known for his entertaining and vibrant personality, Abeiku Santana has taken on the responsibility of revamping the Ghanaian tourism sector. He’s running an informative and educative campaign on the various attractions in Ghana that will catch many a tourists’ attention.
With over a decade experience in radio in various parts of Ghana, his work with the Kenyan Tourist Board and his popular nationwide ‘Alomo’ tours; it is safe to say that he is the right man for the job. He has launched periodic social media campaigns on the subject of Ghanaian tourism and has been on the road, educating commercial drivers and street vendors on how to relate with tourists and foreigners, in general.
Asked why he’s taken upon the responsibility of Ghanaian tourism, he said “Ghana has so many stories and history to share with the world. The people have varied cultures; the language, food, clothing, etc. Even though we are a very diversified group of people, we are still able to function in a unified democratic style of governance. Just this is one major fact we can promote.”
To demonstrate how seriously he takes Ghanaian and Africa’s tourism as a whole, he’s gone back to school to get a Masters Degree in Tourism at the University of Cape Coast. As the team worker that he is, he has looped in all his colleagues in different print, radio and TV media to get on board his tourism success train.
“I have been working with the Minister for Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts, Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare, to remodel our tourism industry and make it viable to international interests. We already have all that it takes to be a number one tourism spot in West Africa. Now we need to put the work in and get the message out there.” He said.
He urged all Ghanaians living abroad to continue sharing good information about the Ghanaian culture whenever they get the opportunity.

What has happened to his MP ambition? and now a new style to share money to taxi drivers and you st00pidly call it re-modeling of tourism? 1diot.
From 5pm when you walk on the streets you see restaurants and drinking bars packed with tourist from Europe and even the Americas. I was surprised my self.
Re-modelling tourism? Abeiku and his ilk are jokers they do not understand tourism. They dont even know the problems confronting the industry. Abeiku should tell us exactly how he has remodelled tourism in Ghana.
WE KNOW ABEIKU IS CAPABLE OF PROMOTING TOURISM ONLY ***barred word*** DISCOURAGES PEOPLE,KEEP ON BLAZING THE GOOD WORK ABEIKU.
In what way has he remodeled tourism? By dressing up like a clown? Is that how to remodel tourism? Have you seen the tourism going on in serious countries like France and USA? Or even in Seychelles, Jamaica and Mauritius? And you think this Abeiku the Clown has remodelled tourism by wearing stuppppid clothes and taking pictures? You need to remodel your brains. Mr writer of this article.
We have countries like Gambia attracting thousands of people in the field of tourism every year not mentioning their bad human right records. Other countries doing adverts all over. Fromm sky, cnn, fox, bbc etc., not to mention billboards across the cities of the world. What is Ghana doing? Oh! because Abeiku sits on Okay FM to make noise so he's promoting tourism? Spare us the F00OLISHNESS.
