| Kofi Ghanaba (born Guy Warren in Accra in 1923) is a Ghanaian musician, best known as the inventor of Afro-jazz and as a member of The Tempos. He began his professional career as a drummer with the Accra Rhythmic Orchestra before working with Kwame Nkrumah, the first prime minister and president of the Republic of Ghana. He had spent time in London, Liberia and Chicago perfecting his music, working with jazz greats like Thelonious Monk and Charlie Parker but achieving little success. He was eventually signed by Decca, a record company attempting to cash in on the exotica craze, but he did not find an audience. In 1965, he returned to Ghana, after studying Buddhism and teaching music to a few visitors.
