Apostle Kwadwo Safo Built Ghana’s First Car From Scratch 🇬🇭

Kantanka
First Driveyoutube

Before factories. Before assembly lines. Before Kantanka becomes a household name… Apostle Dr. Kwadwo Safo is already building a car from scratch. In this historic footage, we witness the very first Kantanka vehicle ever made in Ghana — handcrafted from raw metal to a fully running machine. From cutting steel… to welding the body… to building the engine by hand… to mounting it and taking it out for its first drive… Everything is built locally. No imports. No pre-assembled parts. No shortcuts. Just vision, engineering, and belief. This is not an assembly. This is an invention. This is the true beginning of Kantanka Automobile and proof that Ghana can design and manufacture its own cars. Made in Ghana. Built with pride. 🇬🇭 Subscribe for more Kantanka history, African innovation stories, and exclusive documentaries. #kantanka #ApostleSafo #madeinghana #GhanaInnovation #AfricanEngineering #BuildGhana #africanhistory #localmanufacturing
