A COUNTRY CALLED GHANA
On the west coast of Africa Stood a relics of ancient civilization A golden shore, a light at the end of the tunnel A pillar upon which the freedom of Africa is built. Blessed with so diverse a culture Yet unified with a strong structure The Banku, the Kankay, Fufu The Adinkra, the Kante, the Ankara. The Koloko lite, the Adowa, the...

Ghanaian culture diversity
On the coast of gold(Ghana) where ethnic cultures intertwines like glittering and colourful 'bonwire' kente A vibrant tapestry of diversity divine. Starting from the South where the powerful Ashanti real heritage Tracing to the Fante coastal tales of the sea Across the Nzema fishing net cast upon the tides To the Ewe's rhythmic abadza And the atumpan of...

Ghana
GHANA!!! The blood sacrificed for our sake is being betrayed The landlors can't benefit from their own rich resources We starve on the green space whiles we await manna from the sky The hope couched in the star is gradually losing its black pigment. .. Wake up Mother Ghana!!! Happy Independence Day Mother Ghana!!! It is your birthday!!! I know...

These and...

63 and Beyond
Gained in 1957 our Independence. Hailed by all as the Black Star, the gateway and leader to Africa's independence. At the turn of this decade, are we truly independent? Not yet politically, economically, and socially truly independent? All the toil and blood of our fathers were they in vain? God, You did indeed bless our homeland, intended her to be...

Night Time In Knust
It is night time, someone is returning from Independence. Tomorrow marks the deadline for the submission of assignments but Someone still doesn’t know how the formula ends, so Someone resorts to copying from a friend. It’s night time, Somebody should have been in her room by now, thinking of ways to solve question one. But Somebody is returning from...

Ghana Is Sick
We belong to ourselves on primary agenda, The voice of our homeland Ghana bitterly expresses her feelings over failing governments. Governments that come to serve our land with poisonous aroma. And tries all their best to blindfold every Ghanaian through carnal influence. They stay altering words that wickedly create scars on the brain of Ghanaians with unbearable consequence. Thought governance...

Ghana the Warrioress
“She lies in the western region of the black race territory apportioned back from generations, Within the 11th century era, Filled with typical black men with strong melanin, Who lives semi-primitively to satisfy the necessities of their dreams and aspirations, Under the rise and fall of the sun, soundly… A land raising walkers from different routes permanently, Deepening and sharpening the...

Ghana Needs Peace
It is the home truth, that only, a twerp and a divvy honors and praises war. So I think, is time, the nation sends the message of war around to let it reach all. For war becomes rife in every nooks and cranny of our lives during election. As the people forgets that, they make up the nation. But...
