According to Prof Obeng, PAHM, a vision of Hon. Kojo Yanka is meant to give a feeling of museum to everyone at any time .
“We are living in perforated spaces; we are no longer bounded by a museum that can be experienced physically that is why the museum has been created in order to get the museum experience in different places”.
He added that the museum brings together various stories, experiences, and artifacts of people of different Africa descent in a virtual space to be made available for others to experience
