Afronita
A Ghanaian dancer, Danita Akosua Adomaah Yeboah, popularly known as Afronita has parted ways with Dance With Purpose (DWP) Academy, a dance group.
The DWP Academy finally confirmed Afronita’s departure in a statement cited by Agoro on Monday, noting that it was a tough decision to let go of the dancer.
“We are happy to announce that our dear Danita Akosua Adomaah Yeboah (Afronita) has moved on as a brand on her own.”
It was a tough decision to let Afronita go, but her move is in line with the mission of Dance With A Purpose Academy to build brands out of all the young and gifted personalities that join the family,” the statement said.
It is, however, unclear what has pushed Afronita to leave the group. The young Ghanaian dance star has not yet said anything publicly about her departure.
According to the statement, Afronita joined DWP in 2018, at the age of 14. She successfully combines dance and education and succeeds at both to the admiration of many.
“Today, we are all witnesses to the tremendous transformation DWP has had in her life and artistic career.”
She, together with the many talented members of the DWP family has changed the narrative around professional dancing in Ghana and beyond. Afronita’s move is not the first and will certainly not be the last. Indeed, an opportunity like this affirms our slogan; “Find Your Purpose and Live it,” the statement said.
It said DWP is committed to unearthing talents, nurturing them and building strong personalities and brands that can thrive individually and as a group.
“We will continue to focus on our core family values including honesty, respect, compassion and responsibility,” the statement said.
We believe the sky is big enough to allow all of us space to shine as a group and also as individuals. Our doors are open to new talents in Ghana and beyond as we roll out our next biggest initiative this year.
We encourage all our fans, corporate organisations, individuals and partners in Ghana and abroad to continue to support the dream of DWP so we can continue to nurture great talents.

The upbeat tempo contemporary church praise jam blends energetic rhythms with a worshipful message, making it a perfect sound for Sunday services, personal devotion, and moments of collective celebration in the presence of God.
Speaking about the inspiration behind the song, Jesse Delali describes ‘Hallelujah’ as a call for every believer to exalt God regardless of circumstances.
“God deserves our praise at all times. ‘Hallelujah’ is a declaration of gratitude and surrender-a reminder that our worship is not only tied to what God does for us, but who He is,” he explains.
The production of ‘Hallelujah’ was handled by renowned music producer Junior Boateng of Newgenn Studios, who crafted a rich and energetic soundscape that complements the song’s celebratory message.
