I am 67 years old. I remember this story being told at my village Akoasi when I was about 6 years old.
I am stuck in bed the past 4 days recovering from bunion surgery. I have been in pain the past 4 days. I must confess that the writer made me forgot about my pain and burst into laughter when I got to the part where the "dadesen" ball turn into " kaakaamotobi." You made me feel young all over again. Thank you for rejuvenating the story. Interesting tolly!!!

Mr. Asante, it is true that this story has been there for years but there's no TRUTH to it in anyway. I've heard this story in different ways and forms and none of them adds up. Just ask your self, if you heard this story some 61 years ago, when was Ali Jarrah born and how did he become the goalkeeper of that Black Stars squad? Ali Jarrah is not even 40 years old but happens to be part of a 61 year old soccer match. Why, is he a highlander? Anyway, I wish you a speedy recovery.

This Kwaku Ananse story is full of indisgestible ingredients which would cause serious constipation. When I was about 8 years old, we would gather around Wofa Boadi who was blind for anansem at nights. He told his stories in such manner that we believed there was a real Kwaku Anase! Hey, Mr Writer, you are not Wofa Boadi and we are not kids anymore. Got that? Mfum is still alive. Did your research lead you to him? You know what you're doing with this article? It's nothing but insulting us. We ain't that dumb! Getouttahere!!
