Education is the process of facilitating learning, or the acquisition of knowledge, skills, values, beliefs, and habits. Educational methods include storytelling, discussion, teaching, training, and directed research. What must the African be educated on? Knowing himself/herself, values, beliefs and habits. Allowing a foreigner who doesn’t know me or understand me to teach me who am supposed to be based on directed research is just not right. We are so centered on getting directed research or some relief, after receiving it we just waste it and go back to beg for extra reliefs or education. We are here to teach people who we are not learn from people who we are and ought to be. Change they say is inevitable but what type of change are we having; is it the type of change that undervalues our values and principles and embraces what we don’t understand or it’s the change that makes us know ourselves and build us up. We need to rewrite our history, revisit by the fireside; ask kweku Ananse and tikuma to tell apetupre to sound the gong gong for all Africans to get to know their roots. Let the pilolo’s begin, the chaskele and the ampe. Let the failed elders reach out and show the current generation that they love them. Let their love teach them of their responsibilities ahead for Elders are for counsel and young men for war. Let us fight to know ourselves and build a better Africa for the new generation 

“I have been involved in elections since 1992 and this is the worst in terms of credibility,” Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom told The Africa Report. How all of a sudden the elections was free fair and transparent still eludes me; ah well, I might have been infected with the confused goat syndrome.
In my quest for an anti virus for my infection, i and the good people of Ghana would like to know if in the reports of the 2016 elections, THE HACKING matter would be properly addressed since Madam Georgina Opoku Amankwaa, a deputy chair person of the commission said in an interview that “they” had to completely abandon the electronic transmission system because figures keyed in kept changing, thus the delay in declaration. Could it also be that the commission lost focus amidst the “comfortable lead” and the “we have all the pink sheets” hullabaloo and had to succumb to whatever these two giant parties presented.
“In Ghana many people don’t like the truth, they want what is convenient, but what is convenient is not always right for the people.
Nduom’s party called on the EC to introduce reforms to improve the electoral system.
“What we have now is a bit of a façade,” words of Dr Nduom. Did the Electoral Commission conveniently give Ghanaians the “convenience” we needed?? Was it right…..
Former President Jerry John Rawlings, a true patriot, in his quest of seeing the right things done overlooked this crucial part, I pray someone brings his mind to it.
Let me borrow this paragraph from the danquah institute, “If Ghana is to continue being a reference point for the hope of democracy in Africa then Ghana must get it right and must be bold enough to correct and set things right.
“Democracy in Africa must … be primarily about those who cast the votes and not those who count, record or declare. Their expressions must only reflect that of voters. Nothing more, nothing less.”
