"My social media manager career, producer for Vibe FM, TV 3’s Xlive, lifestyle TV, and other online shows has not been counted hence I believe that I have a lot to share with young ones who aspire to be in our field", he added.
 
He continued by saying: The technicalities in our field especially the music side a lot, it mostly ignored because it is difficult to explain but easy to understand when done right hence as a former member of the Tigo music team that introduced Deezer to Ghana, I think I have gone through the mill to be able to guide young people in that direction".
 
"The online series is free and it’s running on Oneplay Africa pages on social media and my handle @iamnanayaw18 for free".
