Walking Back Into Slavery

Good evening bosses around the world. This is my first post after taking time to read through some pertinent activities that goes on here. I am uplifted by the chance given to us to share our view on issue of common interest to the world.

I am bound to make mistakes and I am ready for any corrections if only its going to make my stay more efficient.

• Walking in the streets this evening, I could smell the struggle my people are going through. Zooming from a distance, you could feel that, its not hard that that sometimes makes man rich but how far someone is abke to use his or her brain. Using your brain doesn't mean trying to dupe a fellow for his resources.

In a moment i stopped to recount the number of natural resources we have and how these resources could have been used to better the lives of my people. We sre blessed with everything even beautiful women. Haha that’s just on the lighter side but I mean it when i say we have everything in abundance.

Hmm! People claim that, the former master took everything away. Anyone who argues from that point is not far from right but I also discovered that, even the ones left behind could have been used to make our standard of living better.

Looking at the future of these young ones, my heart bleeds for my children and my grandchildren. Is things going to be better some day? We line up every four years to vote, change governments with the hope of seeing some form of improvement but we still go back to the basics. Nothing seems to work especially when it comes to Ghana the black star of Africa.

• Now all our resources which we have, has been sold to private individuals with smaller percentage given to us. I thought, the wisest thing to do if we have no use or no need or means to extact these resources is to leave it there in the soil. I dont really believe gold can rust or crude can change to salt.

It was selling of human resource but now, we have sold our resources including our brain and our sense of reasoning . How on earth do we sell our gold mines worth billions of cedis to foreigners and claim less than ten percent. I can't really think far as some one will literally put it.

• If this is not another form of slavery then someone should help me explain this. The toil of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah has been in vain. His ideologies and foresight has crumbled all for the sake of some greedy bustards whose interests is to enjoy while the masses suffers.

Our debt keeps getting bigger but these countries still continue to give us more. What motive do that have if we are unable to pay. Our resources. Thinking about this make me feel that, we are gradually matching into the second form of slavery which is not trying to buy human beings but a way of suffocating us to death.

What does the future holds for these young children in this great continent of ours. Is a day going to come when we will wake up and take control of our lives and resources and not allow few people to dictate for us because we are unable to manage our own affairs as proclaimed by the man who got independence for us.

When will our people be free for racism and mockery because nothing better comes from our part of the world when in fact African is the richest amongst them all.

I wish i could say more but i am even in tears while typing these worlds. I don't seems to have a clue when all these hardships is going to end.

There's always a chance and a way to get out of this mess. We are been taken advantage off and the youth must rise. Ghana and Africa deserves better.

God bless us all. These and many more is what you are going to experience ones i am here. Thank you.
