I am from Labadi, Accra Ghana 🇬🇭 and this is our story!
Most people know Labadi because of the beach.
But few know that Labadi, properly called La, is far more than a tourist destination.
Long before Accra became the bustling capital of Ghana, La was already a thriving Ga settlement with a rich history, deep traditions, and a proud people.

Every generation carries a burden the next one rarely sees.
The fact that many people kept showing up, building, dreaming, and loving despite the odds is a quiet kind of courage.
Survival is an achievement too, even when the world doesn't celebrate it.
Do you know these things about the BIBLE?
1. There was good and evil before God created heaven and earth.
2. Men became gods from eating the fruit?
3. If Adam had eaten the fruit again, there would not have been death for humanity.

He stopped talking to me. It was a talking stage.
One day, we were on a phone call discussing a gangster series I was watching. He had seen it, too. I mentioned that selling and doing drugs is wrong, and somehow, the conversation drifted to Yahoo. I told him nothing justifies fraud or criminal activity.
But he kept trying to make me see reasons why some people choose to become fraudsters or gangsters. So I casually replied that, by the same logic, people should also understand women who collect money for sex instead of judging them.
There was silence for a few seconds.
Then he asked, “Do you really mean what you're saying?”
I said yes.
The call ended, and he never called me again.
Men cry
Men have body insecurities.
Men have trauma.
Men get abused.
Men self-harm.
Men need love and care.
Men need money.
