British actor, Idris Elba, is headed for Ghana. Elba, who recently played Mandela in the movie Long Wak to Freedom, would also visit Sierra Leone.

The talented fine gentleman’s parents hail from both countries. His mother, Eve, is Ghanaian. He was largely brought up in the United Kingdom by his father, Winston, who hails from Sierra Leone.

 

The pair got married in Africa before relocating to the UK.

He confirmed the planned trip in a Twitter post.

“Ghana what’s up? I’m going back to where my Mum is from for her birthday… My first time… Next up Sierra Leone,” he posted.
