In an era ruled by quick answers and faster distractions, there comes a voice that slows us down one that speaks not from trend, but from timeless truth is Kai Nananom.
Kai Nananom, A poet. A performer. A keeper of ancestral memory. This is a spoken word artist who doesn’t just write poems he channels prophecy.
With a message rooted in elder wisdom, this performer reminds us of the sacred knowledge buried in silence, in stories untold, and in the hearts of the aged. “Spend some time with the aged not everything is found on Google,” he says. That isn’t a quote. It’s a philosophy.
On stage, he is more than a performer. He becomes a vessel voicing lessons from ancestors long gone but never forgotten. His verses bridge the past and present, anchoring modern minds in indigenous wisdom.
At the Ehalakasa National Poetry Slam Prelims 2025, this performer brings more than a poem. He brings ritual. Rhythm. Remembering.

In a generation searching for healing through art, Poema is a voice born for the moment.
Born Adeleye Abundance Temiloluwa, and of Yoruba descent, Poema represents a beautiful convergence of cultures: Nigerian by heritage, Ghanaian by heart, and African by voice. She speaks from the crossroads of legacy and future, pain and purpose.
Her poetry boldly addresses familial dynamics, generational trauma, and the emotional undertones of love. But she doesn’t just write to be heard she writes to understand, to make sense of silence, and to give language to healing.
Currently studying to become a clinical psychologist, Poema blends her love for psychology and African literature into a unique poetic style that is emotionally intelligent, intellectually grounded, and powerfully resonant.
As she steps onto the stage for the Ehalakasa National Poetry Slam Prelims 2025, she brings not just her verses but a vision: to stand on global stages, to tell stories often buried, and to turn inherited pain into collective healing.

When you speak of Ghana’s spoken word movement, you cannot skip the name Sabway Lyfstyle a bold poetic voice and a visionary from the Western Region who has been using poetry not just as art, but as a movement of meaning.
Known for his deeply introspective performances and a lyrical command rooted in faith, identity, and social awareness, Sabway Lyfstyle has performed on some of the most important platforms in Ghana’s creative circuit. From the Western Music Awards and Shades and Tins, to corporate and public stages like Ghana Gas Media Collet and the Atlantic Mall opening, his presence has always carried weight not just in words, but in impact.
Yet Sabway Lyfstyle is not only a performer he’s a builder. As the founder of Voice Out Poetry, he’s carved space for emerging spoken word artists to find their footing, voice, and stage. Through curated events like Life and Bars, This is Near, and A Journey to Nowhere, he’s created a legacy rooted in performance, mentorship, and purpose.
Sabway Lyfstyle’s work is not made to entertain. It’s made to unsettle, to awaken, to transform. In a country still defining its contemporary artistic voice, he is proof that poetry is not passive it is public service.
As he takes the stage at the Ehalakasa National Slam Prelims 2025, one thing is certain: he’s not just here to perform. He’s here to lead.

In a world that often prizes noise over meaning, Kobby Wright offers something different a voice that doesn’t just perform, but pierces.
A spoken word artist, poet, and storyteller, Kobby is more than his verses. He is a curator of emotion, a vessel of truth, and a witness to the complexities of the human condition. With a tone that walks the line between vulnerability and conviction, he transforms pain into power and silence into connection.
Kobby’s themes are as wide as they are deep: identity, justice, love, community, trauma, resilience, and grace. His performances are intimate yet commanding the kind that draw a room to stillness and then break it open.
But more than performance, his mission is purpose. Kobby doesn’t write for applause; he writes to spark reflection, to fuel conversations, and to remind us that stories especially our stories matter.
At the Ehalakasa National Slam Prelims 2025, Kobby Wright brings this mission to the stage. And if history is any indication, the crowd won’t just listen. They’ll remember.

In poetry, there are performers. And then, there are thinkers who perform. Mawufemor is both.
Born Rosina Nyadey, she’s a level 300 student at the University of Ghana, pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Study of Religion. But on stage, she steps beyond academia. She becomes a voice gentle yet grounded that reminds us of poetry’s original power: to express what the world often silences.
A passionate reader and emerging writer, Mawufemor believes that “poetry is what helps man express himself.” It’s a simple truth with ancient weight. Her work is not driven by performance tricks or trends it’s driven by meaning. Her words rise from the intersection of books and belief, education and emotion, language and liberation.
This August, she takes the stage at the Ehalakasa National Slam Prelims 2025 where her truth meets a microphone, and the crowd meets a mind shaped by both scholarship and spirit.
