Ghana will entice you with her beauty, seduce you with her
potential and then hang you out to dry, if you are not careful.
Her lure has always been her bounty, for Ghana
is abundantly blessed with raw minerals. But as History will testify,
such blessings are too often a curse for the indigenous peoples of the
land. Ghana is no exception. Teeming with gold, oil, food produce
and fertile land, the people still suffer.

Suffering and smiling is a skill mastered by Africans who have grown
weary of the ship-loads of the toxic waste deposited in our lands in the
form of aid, while watching all of our fruit, food and minerals take
flight out to these same donor countries. But
we don't smile in vain, nor is it apathy or complacence, rather it
reveals the knowing spirit that has read the stars and seen the future.
This smile is evidence that the Keeper's of the Way are eagerly
anticipating a New Day. |
