I was really low on fuel today but I needed to go pick up my kids from school. I was just praying that the fuel just brings me home. I drove to pick them up in our way back the car stopped in the middle of the road.
Chai, my fears finally came true. I had given my wife all the money I had for house upkeep so I was literally on zeros. One of my clients that supposed to pay for a property on Monday has been delaying.
I didn’t even know what to do.
I called a friend of mine and told him my ordeal. He asked me where I was and I told him.
He didn’t say anything and he hung up.
I was there just contemplating what to do, I decided to call my wife to send me small cash but I couldn’t even leave my kids there to hunt for fuel, plus I didn’t have jerrycan in the car.
While contemplating I saw that my guy driving down. He came out with 5 liters of fuel in a Jerry can. You needed to see my relief. 😮💨
In this life, don’t do it alone. Have people you can call, and also be someone others can call upon.

A release is not the same as a payment.
When the Ministry of Finance releases funds, it issues warrants and spending authority through the Controller and Accountant General, making the funds available to a ministry. Actual payments are made later when invoices, certificates, receipts and other supporting documents are submitted and processed.
So the fact that a ministry hasn’t yet spent or paid out the full amount doesn’t mean the funds were not released.
The GH¢1.677 billion figure refers to funds that were made available to MoFA through approved releases and allotments. It doesn’t mean every cedi had already been paid out at the time.
There’s a difference between money being released and money being spent.
Having their friends and family be the ones to send them out to the parade in their own section that says ‘this belongs to all of us’ was such a nice touch. Family fc
Respect!
No hard feelings. I understand passion because I am passionate myself. Sometimes, in the heat of the moment, we go off. And that's what makes us human.
I remain open to any critique so long as it serves our Nation better. I'm sorry too for misreading your passion sometimes.
We move. For God and Country. 🦁🇬🇭
Credit where it’s due.
I’ve spent months criticizing these digital bills, the Ministry, and the Minister of Communications because I believed some of the proposals were dangerous and needed to be challenged.
Having gone through the amendments, I can say that many of the concerns Ghanaians raised have been addressed. The truth is, all the noise wasn’t in vain. The tweets, the Spaces, the articles, the stakeholder meetings and the public pressure made a difference.
So thank you to the Ministry and the Minister @samgeorgegh for listening. We won’t agree on everything, but listening to citizens and making changes when concerns are raised is exactly how the process should work.
That’s a win for Ghana. 🇬🇭
Lydia Forson is my COUSIN!!!
So that is her UNCLE who just died.
So shut your ignorant mouth and take your stupid commentary straight to hell.
I’ll swallow a lot of toxic nonsense on social media, but touch my family again?
I will come for your entire existence.🙂
So please Drink water, eat Kelewele and Find some Peace! ✌🏾
Love and Light! 🫶🏾
The idea that Arsenal became a cultural phenomenon because it signed Black players is too simplistic.
Like much of London, Arsenal positioned itself as a club that extended belonging towards the margins. Not racial margins alone, but the margins of football's imagination.
Kanu arrived after heart surgery that could have ended his career. Bergkamp arrived carrying the weight of a disappointing spell at Inter. Henry arrived as a talented but unsettled player still searching for his place. Kolo Touré was potential before proof. Arteta arrived as a midfielder many thought was entering decline, only to be entrusted with the captaincy. Wenger himself was a foreign manager challenging the assumptions of English football.
The pattern was not diversity for its own sake. It was recognition before validation.
Arsenal repeatedly seemed willing to see people not simply as they were, but as they could become. It trusted before consensus arrived. It built a reputation for offering a second chance, a fresh start, or a path to fulfilment where others saw limitation, uncertainty, or decline.
That is why former players, injured players, and out-of-contract players so often found their way back to Arsenal. The club developed a reputation for treating people as more than their immediate utility.
Representation matters. But recognition creates loyalty.
People did not just see players who looked like them. They saw an institution that appeared willing to enlarge its definition of who belonged.
