Ghanaian travel vlogger and globally recognised YouTube personality, Berthold Kobby Winkler Ackon, popularly known as Wode Maya, has revealed that he finances every aspect of his content creation, from production costs to travel and staffing, entirely out of his own pocket.<\/p>\n

Speaking on PrimeTime with George Quaye on Joy Prime <\/strong><\/em>on Thursday, 10 October, Wode Maya opened up about the self-funded nature of his work, which continues even after being honoured with a diplomatic passport by the Government of Ghana, a gesture recognising his efforts in promoting the nation and the African continent at large.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI fund everything that I do, including my team. I literally do everything by myself,\u201d he told host George Quaye. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The vlogger, who has amassed a large following through his uplifting portrayal of African innovation, culture, and entrepreneurship, shared that his income is generated exclusively through the monetisation of his digital platforms chiefly YouTube and reinvested into his work.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cAll my platforms are monetised and that is the money that we use to travel,\u201d he explained.
\u201cDo you know it is more expensive to travel in Africa than in every part of the world?\u201d<\/p>\n
