Akuapem Poloo Sparks Buzz with Brand-New Car Gift from Baby Daddy After Childbirth
Ghanaian actress and socialite Akuapem Poloo has once again captured the attention of social media users after proudly unveiling a brand-new Mitsubishi vehicle, gifted to her by her baby daddy as a push present following the birth of their child.
With her trademark charm and vibrant energy Poloo took to Instagram on Thursday, sharing a video of the sleek car parked in her compound. This is my push gift from my baby daddy, she wrote in the caption. I’m so grateful. God bless him.
Push gifts — traditionally given by fathers to mothers after childbirth — are gradually gaining popularity in Ghana. Once considered a luxury seen mostly among international celebrities the trend is now finding roots in Ghanaian culture where more men are expressing appreciation for the sacrifices women endure during pregnancy and labor.
It’s becoming common now, said Ama Serwaa a midwife in Accra. After witnessing the pain and strength women go through in delivery rooms a gift is just a small way to say thank you and show support.
Akuapem Poloo who welcomed her baby just a few weeks ago joins the growing number of women publicly celebrating these symbolic post-delivery gifts. While some mothers receive jewelry spa packages, or special treats, Poloo’s gift was on a different level — a full-blown Mitsubishi ride.
The post quickly went viral drawing admiration and humorous comments from fans and followers. One comment read, Congratulations to her oo. Let me go and find someone’s daughter so we do the kimkim some because I have some half plot, I’m not using for anything so I give it to her as push gift.
The viral buzz around Poloo’s gift not only highlights the growing popularity of the push gift tradition in Ghana but also sheds light on how romantic partnerships are evolving to celebrate motherhood in more thoughtful ways.
Whether it’s a luxury car or a simple heartfelt gesture
one thing is certain: the celebration of motherhood and the appreciation for women’s strength during childbirth is gradually becoming a cultural norm — and Akuapem Poloo is once again at the center of that conversation.
