It depends on what you mean by "Ghana's Kings"
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. Islam passed to West Africa along the commercial routes across the Sahara and the Kings of Ghana liked what they saw and heard.
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.
