BlacVolta Network’s latest podcast episode features a powerful and inspiring conversation with one of Ghana’s most influential digital personalities, Dulcie Boateng, whose story reflects the grit, growth, and global power of African influencers today.
Speaking candidly, Dulcie recounted how her time at Achimota Secondary School exposed her to Ghana’s class divide — a reality that sparked her ambition. “Achimota changed my life,” she revealed. “It was the first time I saw how rich people lived, and I made a decision to tour that world too.”
She went on to share moments that shaped her rise — from working at D-Black’s club as a bottle girl, to downloading Snapchat in 2013 on a Motorola phone, an app that would become the launchpad for her digital career.
In a rare moment of vulnerability, Dulcie spoke about the absence of her father and how she turned pain into power. She also reflected on a former relationship with a cryptocurrency investor who gave her business insights that elevated her brand.
At one point, she was even locked up, and it was the police officers who advised her to “stop working for poor people” — a turning point that led her to start charging her true worth. Today, Dulcie is a shining example of the creator economy in Africa, having once made over GHS 600,000 in under two minutes with her signature event, Porials Pitch.
Dulcie’s journey is not just about success — it’s about how African influencers, especially in Accra, Ghana, are redefining the meaning of fame, business, and storytelling. From digital innovation to personal branding, they are changing the game across the continent.
This episode is a must-watch for anyone interested in the power of influence, entrepreneurship, and the bold future of African creatives.
