Visual Artist, Moh Awudu honors Mohammed Kudus with a giant mural in Nima

Ghanaian artist, Moh Awudu has honoured Black Stars midfielder, Mohammed Kudus with a giant mural in the heart of Nima.

The mural, which has been painted on a wide wall in the Nima community, where Kudus hails from, is a celebration of breaking the stereotype of the community.

In an interview with Class FM, Moh Awudu stated that he was proud of Kudus for making the community proud.

“This World Cup, one inspirational person is Mohammed Kudus, and he’s from Nima,” Moh proudly noted standing against the mural in a Ghana jersey.

“When you say someone is from Nima [there is] a lot of negative narratives around us, so for me I did this mural to inspire the young kids out here,” he stretched his arms to draw attention to the mural’s audience, “to know that with discipline, and when you move out of your comfort zone, trust me, you’ll achieve a lot in life.”

Mr Awudu observes that Kudus is the embodiment of the aforementioned principles and that accounts for his success thus far.

“He should just be himself [and] know that a lot of people support him,” visual artist Moh Awudu encouraged and asked Kudus to remember the spirit of his town on the field: “He needs to play his heart out, you know the way we do things in Nima; we do things with passion, he needs to do [just] that.”
