The outbreak of a deadly disease on the land of Africa. Is Africa thinking?

Do you know that 2017 marks:

1. the 60th birthday of our beloved country ?

2. the 57th year of being a Republic Nation ?




My dear friend,  we can not celebrate these years of political and economic struggle without assessing the state of our country with respect to Corruption.


Let me be very sincere with you,  

The biggest problem of this country is not that there is too much traffic on our roads,  hence our greatest need is not the building of interchange /overheads

 Our biggest problem is not that we do not have places of abode,  hence our greatest need is not free accommodation.

  Our biggest problem is not that we can not afford food,  hence our greatest need is not free supply of food.

 Our biggest problem is not that,  students do not get schools to attend,  hence our greatest need is not building of new schools.
Our biggest challenge is that a lot of us ( Africans) are not using our minds correctly. We are not ashamed to sell our integrity for money,  wealth, food, sex or grades. We have infected our minds with Corruption. 





 
There is an outbreak of a deadly disease called  CORRUPTION  on the  land of Africa.   Leaders  with  no  integrity is the order of the day.   Bad  leadership  is our brand name.


Ellen Johnson Sirleaf said it better, She said,  "Africa is not poor,  it is poorly managed "  

Corruption  is one of the reasons why Africa has remained the poorest continent on the face  of the earth.


Let us together  revive Africa  by saying  NO to corruption anytime  and  anywhere. Your NO counts. Say No to corruption,  save Ghana and Africa as whole. Together we can! 



 Thank you

I have written this paper to annoy and irritate anyone who reads. When the wise African is annoyed and irritated, he is moved to make corrections. If Africa has lost the last fifty-five years, we cannot afford to lose the next forty-five years. African Union @100 must not be as empty as this! Is Africa thinking right? Writer: Williams Osei, Director, WAF AFRICA Date: 25 th May, 2018 It is 25 th May again, fifty-five years since the Organization of African Unity (OAU) now known as the African Union (AU) came into existence. I have been authorised neither to go to work nor school, it is a holiday. Yes! Africa @55. As I walk on the streets of Cape Coast, the former capital city of our beloved country, Ghana; stores are closed, government offices are closed, even some market women who are usually not moved by such holidays did not assume post to ply their usual trade. Africa is 55years today!   AFRICAN UNION The African Liberation Day (African Union Day) is cele

                                                                          STAND UP, LEST AFRICA FALLS.   When the Blackman thinks the key to success is a white man. IS AFRICA THINKING?  WAF WRITER : Williams Osei, Executive Director, WILLS ANTI-CORRUPTION FOUNDATION - WAF DATE : 15TH JANUARY, 2017  About sixty (60) years ago, when Africa had few literates, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, the first president of the Republic of Ghana, was bold enough to make this thought provoking statement and I quote “We have awakened. We will not sleep anymore. Today, from now on, there is a new African in the world! That new African is ready to fight his own battles and show that after all, the black man is capable of managing his own affairs. We are going to demonstrate to the world, to the other nations, that we are prepared to lay our own foundation. ”    Waf The truth is that Dr. Kwame Nkrumah was not joking when he made this statement on the independence day of my beloved count
