Kofi Kingston to return to Ghana for the first time in 26 years

Kofi Kingston is going home. And, of course, he’s got a little extra luggage to take with him this time around.

The WWE Champion revealed Friday on Instagram that he is planning his first visit to his home country of Ghana, West Africa since 1993 — part of a celebratory “Year of Return” in the wake of winning his first World Championship. A WWE film crew will be documenting the four-day visit, which includes a children’s rally, visits to Kofi’s maternal and paternal hometowns, as well as a courtesy call on the Ghanaian president, H.E. Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, and a visit to Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, the Asante Monarch.

Read the full press release below, and stay tuned to WWE’s digital channels for more on Kofi’s homecoming.

Kofi Kingston returns to a hero’s welcome upon visit to Ghana

They say that, “Home is where the heart is.” For Kofi Kingston, that statement couldn’t have rang any truer when he made his historic return to Ghana this week.

Celebrating what he considers to be his “Year of Return,” the WWE Champion received a hero’s welcome upon making his first visit to Ghana in 26 years. As family and friends surprised him at the airport, so did a band and plenty of supporters outside.

“It was honestly the best, possible welcoming that I could’ve ever asked for,” Kingston said moments before visiting President Akufo-Addo at the Jubilee House, where he presented him with a WWE Title.

Moments throughout Kofi’s heartwarming visit can seen via his “Homecoming” series on social media.
