A Brief Note To Senior Kwaku Bio - A Fellow Old Boy Of Prempeh College

Senior Kwaku Bio, you are indeed spot on - in terms of what is, now, today, that is. But we bury our heads in sand, over the matter of switching to a low carbon green economy, to the detriment of your generation, in the longterm, alas.

The fact of the matter, is that if we continue to refuse to accept global realities, Ghana will be left far behind, a decade hence. Mark that on a wall, somewhere,  Senior Kwaku Bio. I will probably not be alive then, but will definitely be a skeleton in the Anatomy Department, of the  University of Ghana Medical School, to which I have donated my body, when I die. Cool.

The question is: Can the march of progress be halted permanently in Africa? One doubts that very much - Africa's  super-wealthy Dangotes' oil refineries, and the continent's  fossil fuel sector's power and baleful influence, not withstanding.

Whatever be the case,  EVs are the future globally, and clean  emission-free off-grid stand-alone power plants,  will enable nations to be powered 100 percent, by cheap emission-free green clean-power (that is even cheaper than nuclear power, and has no super-dangerous radioactive waste to boot, on top too, oooo, Massa!). 

Running away from those facts of life, in tomorrow's world, could impoverish Ghanaians and their nation, in the final analysis, in the 2030s. For sure. Peace and blessings to you, Senior Kwaku Bio. Always enjoyable sparrig with you cognitively. Long live Prempeh College, our alma mater.  Wish you well, as always -  and do stay safe!
