A Canadian expatriate identified as Kwame Ahuofe has sparked reactions online after taking up the challenge of preparing the popular Ghanaian delicacy, fufu and palm nut soup, entirely from scratch.

In a viral video sighted by GhanaWeb on September 20, 2026, Ahuofe is seen cutting up cassava and plantain before proceeding to prepare the soup.

He explained that he decided to take on the challenge after some people questioned his ability to prepare fufu despite enjoying the dish.

"For those of you who challenged me on the fact that I eat but cannot make fufu by myself, I have taken up the challenge to do it from scratch," he said.

Ahuofe subsequently completed the preparation of the meal and served himself a plate of fufu with palm nut soup.

His decision to prepare the traditional dish himself has since attracted reactions from netizens, with many expressing surprise at his effort and willingness to take on the challenge.

After completing the meal, Ahuofe sat down to enjoy his handiwork.

Below are some reactions from netizens.
