Africa-Press – Ghana. Ace Liam Nana Sam Ankrah, Ghana’s celebrated child prodigy and the youngest achiever ever recorded in the Guinness World Records’ 70-year history, is set to captivate audiences at the upcoming Ghana Independence Day celebrations in Beijing, China.
The Ghana Embassy in the People’s Republic of China would host a series of events on March 6, 2026, to mark Ghana’s 69th Independence Anniversary, with Ace Liam’s artwork prominently featured.
As part of the Embassy’s cultural initiatives, an art exhibition would showcase creative works by top Ghanaian artists, including Ace Liam and renowned artist Ibrahim Mahama.
