Despite our homeland Ghana's myraid of challenges, we are still an African nation (once led by the great President Nkrumah, let us not forget), which has the potential to be transformed into a prosperous, peaceful, stable and equitable society.
The question we need to ponder over is: Are there far too many cynical glass-empty-folk-types - as opposed to optimistic glass-half-full-folk-types - in Nkrumah's Ghana, today? Pessimism never made any people prosperous. Optimism, confidence and supreme-self-belief, are the bedrocks of successfull nation-building.
As a wise and aspirational people, why do we not resolve that as our contribution to nation-building, we will try and make sure that our criticisms of government actions, and inactions, will always be constructive?
Above all, whenever possible, let us offer alternative solutions that are creative, which can help the transformative-agenda of our now-beleaguered leader, President Akufo-Addo, who is a sincere politician, who, unlike so many African leaders, sought the presidency, not to enrich himself, but to help transform Ghana into a prosperous society that works for all demographics, nationwide, and leave that as his legacy.
Our homeland Ghana belongs to all its citizens. Yes, it is a fact that some of those around him, the big-thieves-in-high-places amongst our ruling-élites, are letting President Akufo-Addo down, terribly. However, the fact still remains that Ghana belongs to all of us - so let us work together to change it for the better. Now. Not tomorrow.
