Veteran journalist Kweku Baako has opened up about the early days of his enduring friendship with Kwesi Pratt Jnr., sharing heartfelt memories during an appearance on Good Morning Ghana on Metro TV, monitored by MyNewsGH.
Reflecting on their decades-long bond, Baako painted a vivid picture of how their shared political ideologies and similar personalities forged an unbreakable connection. "Our first meeting felt natural; we immediately clicked," Baako recounted with a smile. "We discovered we had so much in common-our political beliefs, our drive, and even the way we approached life." Baako reminisced about the time when he invited Pratt to stay with him and his family in Labone.
Their camaraderie grew deeper as they shared a room and even a bed during that period. "He was a promising young journalist, and it felt right to extend that support," Baako said, adding that the experience not only strengthened their friendship but also laid the groundwork for future collaborations.
Initially, Baako's stepmother expressed reservations about Pratt moving in. "She wasn't sure at first, but as time went by, she grew to see what I saw in him.
