@griff__00 That is exactly the reason why we, as citizens, are trying to preserve our languages ourselves
It’s not that hard telling your folks that “I speak Ga, Fante or Twi, a Ghanaian language”Educate them
we should be advocating for NSS allowance to be increased from 715cedis ($63) to something more reasonable.
taking home $63 after 30days is criminal. we need to change that.
considering the cost of living in our country, giving a university graduate 715cedis monthly, is w!ckedness. we shouldn’t entertain that.
nobody should sit in the office and even be happy about this. we have allowed these things for too long.
🇬🇭 UPDATE —
The shooting incident involving former MP Hon. Sarah Adwoa Safo reportedly occurred after she allegedly drove her vehicle into the gate of a home where a succession ceremony was taking place and fired several gunshots at the scene.
She subsequently sustained gunshot wounds after being shot at by alleged military personnel at the residence of her brother, Kwadwo Safo Junior, following an altercation over his appointment as an elder and successor of their late father’s church.
Like you I have first hand experience with this from teaching during my national service, and it forced me to think about the deeper problem.
I was about 22 at the time, and some of the JHS students would make comments like, “Sir, this weekend I want to come to your house oo,” and I’d shut it down immediately. One time, I overheard a student make a comment in twi that essentially translated to, “This teacher he’s even a small boy and sees himself like that,” and that really put things into perspective for me.
It made me realize that a lot of these kids have been groomed by older people in their communities for so long that it feels normal to them. The issue isn’t about how children dress or present themselves. That doesn’t solve this. The problem runs deeper and it always circles back to the adults in their communities.
A child having a crush on an adult isn’t strange. That’s part of adolescence. But the responsibility is always on the adult. The moment you indulge it, you’ve failed that child. And beyond that, your actions don’t just affect that one moment, you condition them to see that behavior as acceptable, which only makes them more vulnerable to other predators.
That’s why this isn’t something you fix by telling kids to behave differently. It’s something adults have to take responsibility for, by setting and maintaining clear boundaries every single time.

So i decided to check her page out, and she had me blocked. I’ve never seen her account nor interacted with her on this or anyother platform, neither did i know her until now, so I’m a bit confused as to why.
May she Rest In Peace though, it’s sad she had an issue with me and now I have to live with it forever🙁.
