The reasonable thing would be for companies to ask their workers to stay home. But your boss will still expect you to take a trotro from Lapaz just to come answer emails.
If only our leaders loved Ghana the way they love the Black Stars, we’d be far by now. The attention they give the Black Stars should be the same energy they give hospitals, schools, roads and jobs.
In Ghana, the people who hold the country together are always the ones forced to protest.
Teachers protest over salary arrears. Nurses protest over unpaid salaries. Doctors threaten strikes after working for months without pay.
These are the people educating the next generation of Ghanaians and keeping them alive.
When will politicians also work for one year without pay? When will they protest like everyone else?
🚨ICYMI🇬🇭🇬🇧🎤: “…when we saw Ebola killing Africa, we never saw you people shut it down; all the violence in Congo but we haven’t heard nobody make a sound. But when we dig our own gold, now I see you people wanna come around..”
Ghanaian rapper @sarkodie jumped on @djedu’s beat during BBC’s This Is Africa and delivered a sharp freestyle calling out Western hypocrisy, touching on African unity, self-determination, & the fight against exploitation.

Some of Ghana's loudest voices on corruption got silent the moment corruption became their salary. The day the appointment letter arrived the thread disappeared and the bio changed and the outrage found a new home somewhere else.
