What influence did Islam have on Kings of Ghana?
It depends on what you mean by "The Kings of Ghana" If you are referring to the Kingdom of Ghana (which was located primarily in present-day Mali), Islam provided a legal and organizational basis in the latter period of that empire and also facilitated its expansion. If you are referring to the Akan Kingdoms which used to exist inside of the present-day country of Ghana, these were not influenced at all by Islam and remained consistently Animist. There were also kingdoms belonging to the Dagombe peoples in the north of Ghana that were Muslim, but as they did not exert a strong regional influence, it is unclear what affect Islam had on them.

If you are referring to the Akan Kingdoms which used to exist inside of the present-day country of Ghana, these were not influenced at all by Islam and remained consistently Animist. There were also kingdoms belonging to the Dagombe peoples in the north of Ghana that were Muslim, but as they did not exert a strong regional influence, it is unclear why they would have converted save for having been convinced by religious arguments.
