I have been silent for awhile concerning the way and manner the citizens of the country are being treated, however the scriptures says; out of the abundance of the heart the mouth confesses. I cannot keep mute whiles the indigenes are treated as though expatriates and the later enjoying preferential treatment.
Is only in Ghana that foreigners are seen as super naturals and Engels hence accorded with the necessary respect more than the citizenry. In pursuance of this, some foreigners commit all sort of crime with impunity whereas the little faulty of the indigene is punished to the core. We were in this country when an ace foreign singer came and smoked Marijuana right on a musical stage of over two thousand (2000) fans with security men included but what did we see, no bridge of law was found against him.
Now juxtaposing the same act to what was committed by one Ghanaian hip life artiste who smoked something suspected to be marijuana in a closed area, what do you think, Injustice??.Asem oo!!.
By virtue of Cross boarder trading (ECOWAS), some herdsmen after bringing their cattle to cause nuisance to the populace, go to the extent of setting fire on farms ostensibly to feed their cattle with a new and fresh forage alongside raping and murdering of farmers who try to resist their course. The menace of these herdsmen is more obvious when one visits Agogo Asante Akim. I cannot dispute the fact that some of these activities of the herdsmen (Fulanis) are clandestinely fanned by our traditional leaders who lease lands to them to carry out these inhumane activities.
We are in a country where our streams and rivers are being damage by some unscrupulous Chinese galamsay miners. These Chinese after identifying a target area normally around our villages and small towns lure some of our traditional leaders with scanty money and then import their sophisticated machines to the area for the operations. The pathetic side of the story is where our youth who are employed and use for all the dirty works by these miners are paid in just a penny. It is worse off when one visit companies and industries owned by foreigners in the country. The working conditions for the workers are discouraging and heartbreaking knowing well that about 90% of the workers are all Ghanaians. This palpable insensitivity exhibited by some foreigners and the inability of Ghanaian to seek justice is really disturbing. Now my morbid conundrum is why these things are happening in the country whereas we sit down folding up our hands. I cannot just fathom the status quo, is it our system that is too xenocentric towards black breeds? or the servitude of the slavery is now hunting our spirit causing us to succumb to the dictates of these whites to the detriment of ourselves?.
It looks as if this canker has now taken over all the economy sector of the country being it services, manufacturing or sports etc. I woke up one early morning to hear that, the Ghana Football Association has to petition the National team Coach Avram Grant to immediately resume work after his long leave before the man remembered that his leave duration has expired. In fact this is the highest indictment on the Ghanaian populace, and I sincerely think that most of these people anticipate us to be non-serious country but fellow Ghanaians is about time we build our self esteem to the fullest and stop being 21st Century slaves. Ghana as at 59 years cannot afford to be treated awfully by some unscrupulous foreigners, the people of the country needs better treatment from their colleague expatriates.
Love Ghana.@59yrs.
