Braimah Kamoko alias Bukom Banku, the undefeated Ghanaian boxer, is not ashamed to admit that he underwent a skin lightening procedure. It is reported that he recently told a local TV station that he wants to be red. “I don’t need any black in my life! Master, I want you to make red so that you see that I make fine,” Banku allegedly said. He is also reported to have linked his skin bleaching to a desire for foreign service in Germany.
