On Tuesday's show, we'll hear from athletics coach Prince Chet Iyke, who discovered Ofili when she was 11 years old.  Also on the program, Kent Mensah and VOA's Jackson Mvunganyi will have reports on the late Ghanaian footballer Christian Atsu, who died from the earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria.
