However, since leaving the country 25 years ago, the newly crowned WWE champion has never returned.
After achieving that historic feat at WWE, Kofi has confirmed that he will be making a return to Ghana soon.
The 37-year-old defeated Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania 35 to become the new title holder.
Kofi was born in Kumasi but moved to the United States of America (USA) at a very tender age, where he started his wrestling career.
Kingston is thus the second African American – following Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson – to win the WWE Championship.
He is currently a member of tag-team group The New Day and also a four-time Intercontinental Champion, a three-time United States Champion and an eight-time world tag team champion.
Gossips24.com earlier reported a story of WWE storming Ghana to shoot a documentary on Kofi’s historic homecoming.
The documentary has already started at his home in Texas and WWE producers are expected to join him to Ghana to capture his historic homecoming.
