My Heart will always be in Ghana

I love Ghana & I love my fellow Ghanaians.

When you love something, you work to make it better. That is exactly what I started this blog to do - Help make Ghana better by working on improving customer service from my little corner.
This blog exists because I love my motherland.

I missed the memo on "Bash Africans & their Countries" day.

It's been amusing the past few days reading blog posts by people who couldn't cut it in their developed countries, jetted to West Africa & are now totally pissing in the calabash they are drinking from.

We Africans have honest reasons for being in your developed countries. What are your honest reasons for being in our under-developed countries?

We can all get along but dont take our friendliness for-granted.

Fellow Ghanaians, we are going through phases that developing countries must go through. Love your country, continue to contribute towards our development.

G.E.S & Petro-Chemical Processing

I am adding this to my to-do list:
Check with Mr Tettey-Enyo if Ghana Education Service plans on introducing Petro-Chemical Processing certifications & programs in the technical schools.
Since there are all these plans for oil production in Ghana, we should adequately prepare the workforce for the jobs intended to be created.

Santiago!

Vaya con Dios! Chile.
Praying for all to be well
So I can come chill in Chile
With ma family
All the way from Konongo
to Santiago!

Fast Forward! 20th Century

Ghana!
We still hear of binding contracts
signed on behalf of the country
by our kinfolk
practically giving away our lands, our souls and their kinfolk.

An educated & respectable Osafo Marfo admitted he signed a contract he had not read and didn't understand, on behalf of the country. (Just when you think you have them figured out, they come back, take your stuff & enslave you)
There is filla about shady contracts between Gh & companies in the west (RE: Craig Murray).

If you care, what would you suggest We The People do?

Marit Bjoergen!

If you are in the US or any country with a TV network sponsoring the Winter Olympics, you certainly must have seen Marit Bjoergen.
No?
Ok, you heard her name on the TV but you were not watching.
Nei?
That is because, which ever station you are watching (highly likely US or UK connected, doesnt care about the games. They care about their athletes.
They tell it is all about the games.... but pay close attention and you realize it is all about them and their athletes.
Marit Bjoergen is Norwegian and scored the most medals during the 2010 Winter Olympics.
What was NBC's excuse for not highlighting this feat? Americans don't really understand cross-country skiing and they aren't interested in it.

Whoaa?? Slow down a likkle!!
It's like that?

Hmmm Slavery days.
They came
They saw
They liked
Then they told us they had bigger plans for us

We fell for it then just as we fall for it now.

We need to be ALERT!

Booo-ing Ghana Education Service

Shame on Ghana Education service for not including books by or books on Marcus Mosiah Garvey & Toussaint Bréda in the curriculum when I was in school.

It's not just us

I had to help a friend move, and got assigned the task of picking up the UHAUL truck. He told me I'd need extra patience with the UHAUL staff because they are known for being rude.
I stepped in there with an attitude but the lady at the counter was the sweetest and nicest so I chucked my attitude.

Some of the uhaul customers' horror stories were scary.
Our customer service is bad in Ghana BUT not this bad.
