By the time you will be done reading this short blog, the most powerful man in the world will probably be giving a speech in the most neglected continent in the world… I am wondering how much different will Prez Obama’s visit to Ghana (Africa) make to this pathetic continent. I will be expecting the prez to share with the leaders of Ghana and the rest of Africa how they need to be honest to their people. They should be leaders instead of masters of their people and how they should stop fighting in the name of the people. Africa is alleged to be endowed with many riches in its belly. But Alas, its citezenery are the most poorest in the world .The best of its people live in abstract poverty, below UN’s poverty line , meaning they live on about 1.25 dollars a day, whiles the world profits off the continent’s resources… so what is the big deal about Obamas visit to Ghana… both clinton and Bush went to Ghana, where is the Change I wonder if Obama’s visit will be any different.. African politicians need to put their acts together ,clean their messes and work to better the lives of their citezens.. Dear mr president before you fly out of Ghana I want to share a quote from the Father of Pan Africanism and the founder of modern day Ghana with you. ”Africa is a paradox which illustrates and highlights neo-colonialism. Her earth is rich, yet the products that come from above and below the soil continue to enrich, not Africans predominantly, but groups and individuals who operate to Africa’s impoverishment”. (Kwame Nkrumah (1900-1972), Ghanaian president.
