During the latter part of last year, late December precisely Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles was in Ghana. As soon as she arrived, the news of her arrival broke and she was later even spotted hanging out Stonebwoy’s wife, Dr Louisa after she visited her(Louisa) in her shop. Basically, Beyoncé’s mom’s every move in Ghana were no secret to anyone.
Tina Knowles’ presence in Ghana also sparked rumours Beyoncé herself was also in the country, but nobody could actually prove Beyoncé’s presence here because there was no solid evidence to back the claim. Moreover, at a point Beyoncés mom herself too debunked the rumour, so little did anyone know she was actually in the country for her project.
