WHY SO MUCH EMPHASIS ON JOLLOF?

Below are 10 personal, very emotional reasons why:

1) Jollof is basically rice and stew cooked together.
Any girl who can cook good jollof is subconsciously
socialised as to how to peacefully co-exist, handle
conflicts and conflict resolution and other delicate
matters.

2) Jollof takes time to be done.
Any girl who can cook good jollof is naturally patient,
determined and focused; Persistent and resilient.
Tolerant. Elastic.

3) Jollof comes in different feels and tastes depending
on your current physical, emotional, psychological,
spiritual and/or economic state.
That is to say that a good jollof cook should be able to
cook vegetable jollof, meat jollof, fish jollof, beans jollof
and jollof muchuchu (without any protein source).

Any girl who is a good all round jollof cook is able to
make the most of any given situation depending on the
ingredients she is given. She maximises every least
opportunity and brings out the best in any given set of
resources: Scanty or bountiful. Resourceful, versatile
and malleable!

4) Jollof requires attention. At different points you have
to stir, taste, sprinkle water and make sure it doesn't
burn.
Any girl who can cook good jollof is subconsciously
taught to be caring. She can check on me 70 million
times a day without getting tired or agitated.

5) Jollof at a stage requires that it is covered by a neat
napkin/rubber. This helps it to cook evenly and gives it
that jollofy taste and feel.
Any girl who can cook good jollof is able to handle my
demons, contain them and cover them with heat and
fire; So well so that third parties are unable to see
what is actually happening under the mix. What
happens under the napkin, stays under the
napkin...Discretion!

6) Jollof is an alloy.
For a girl to master the ministry of jollof cooking, the
girl should have mastered the arts of cooking plain rice
as a meal and at least 4 different kinds of tomato
stew: Gravy, meat stew, fish stew and vegetable stew.
That, dear friends, is a very powerful precedent the
determination of a girl who knows how to cook many
dishes. Diversity.

7) Jollof is mostly eaten with salad, meat/grilled tilapia,
eggs and kelewele on the side.
A girl who can cook good jollof with all the right
accompaniments is not just a girl who can multitask;
She is multi-faceted and multi-talented as well! Great
wifely and motherly trait.

8) Jollof requires different specific degrees of heat at
different stages of its cooking.
Show me a girl who can cook good jollof and I'll show
you a girl who can take and regulate the heat in the
relationship to suit its growth in every stage. Call it
MATURITY for short.

9) It takes a very humble, hospitable person to accept
to cook a good man some good jollof considering all
the time, effort and risks involved.

10) Jollof requires intentional skill and focus. Research
has shown that a girl who can cook good jollof is also
a girl who is very compassionate.

FOR THE LOVE OF THE CONTINENT


Today i celebrate AU day.A day which is conceptualised as the birthmark of African Unity. As a continent we need to reflect on our past. Where we came from, where we have gotten to and where we are going.

Some school think , The prosperity of Africa is impossible. We can never have sustainable development as a continent.But i have always argued against this notion. I believe in a day where this continent will full of honey.

That day will come but it will be unfortunate that i might not see that day. I will be dead and gone. Therefore whiles i am alive today, i need to contribute my quota to make the Africa i dream of a reality.

As a Ghanaian and an African i need to uphold the integrity of my nation and the continent. I have to be a great thinker,  thinker of great thought to change the face of Ghana and Africa.

In a speech at the opening Ghana National College  ( Osagyefo's own school) , Nkrumah urged all students to consider  laziness a crime. It is in the same vein i ask all citizens to consider Laziness a crime and help build this nation and continent.

If you are a student, "Of what use is your education if you cannot help your country in her hour of need?" Osagyefo  said on that same where Ghana college was opened. I put before you fellow Ghanaians and Africans , OF WHAT USE IS YOUR EXISTENCE IF YOU CANNOT HELP YOUR COUNTRY AND CONTINENT IN HER OUR OF NEED?.
Do you need Bribe to do your duties?
Do you need to be begged take on your own responsibilities?.

Ghana needs you, Africa needs you,The world need you. Yes we can and i believe we Can .

Mr Sackey popular know us "Medaase" or "Drive Drive Drive " was honoured as the best security expert and traffic director in the maiden edition of the UCC S.R.C awards night.

His special slogan medaase could be heard all over the auditorium as soon as his name was mentioned. It seemed the entire university student approved of this award because of the tremendous job he was doing and is still doing even now that there is a Traffic light on campus.

The committee deemed his award a special one therefore Prof E.K.Oduro was called to present this award to Mr Sackey.However the student body were disappointed because Mr Sackey couldn't make it to the awards night.The award was received on his behalf by a colleague.

My lowest grade in UCC was a B+

James gardiner ,a very popular actor in the Ghanaian movie industry was awarded at the recent U.C.C SRC awards night.

After receiving the award, He thanked all his fans and also extended his gratitude to the University for honouring him with such an award. As an alumnus of the university of Cape Coast , he was awarded for his tremendous work in the movie industry.

However some extract from his speech has become the talk of the day. And i quote " I never missed any lectures when i was in UCC". It didn't just end there ,He added,  "My lowest grade in UCC was a B+".

James might have been a good student during his time but most student are suprised we never heard James being the overall best student during his time. This article is just to ask Mr Gardiner if he could share with us the class he obtained in UCC since most student sees it as something impossible.

THE MAD SCRAMBLE FOR AFRICA

Prof. Walter Rodney asks a pertinent question “What would have been Britain’s level of development had millions of her people been put to work as slaves out of their country over a period of four centuries?” As if slavery had not already done enough damage to Africa’s people, European leaders met in Germany from December 1884 to February 1885 at the imperialist Berlin Conference The Belgian King Leopold stated the purpose of the Berlin Conference as “How we should divide among ourselves this magnificent African cake.” Africa was thus plunged into another human tragedy.

Through the Berlin Treaty of 26 February 1885 the European imperialists sliced Africa into “Portuguese Africa”, “British Africa”, “German Africa”, “Italian Africa,” “Spanish Africa”, “French Africa” and “Belgian Africa,” Comrades, Slavery and colonialism enriched Europe and reduced Africa to abject poverty. The riches of Africa and her raw materials fuelled the economies of imperialist countries. The British Prime Minister, Sir Winston Churchill bore testimony to this fact when he said: “Our possession of the West Indies gave us the strength, the support, but especially the capital, the wealth, at the time when no other European nations possessed such reserve, which enabled us to come through the great struggles of the Napoleonic Wars.

The keen competition of commerce in the 18th and 19th centuries enabled us not only to acquire this appendage of possessions which we have but also to lay the foundations of that commercial and financial leadership which when the world was young,…enabled us to make our great position in the world " It was against this background of genocide in the name of “European civilisation” that Africans in the Diaspora who had been shipped from Africa and enslaved in the West Indies and in the Americas realised that the solution to Africa’s people both at home and abroad was Pan Africanism the Pan Africanism is a political philosophy that was conceived in the womb of Africa and now We must claim our inheritance to be a total people Africa’s riches belong to Africa’s people The control of our resources and land was the substance and objective of Africa’s liberation struggle Africans cannot face the onslaughts of imperialism without Pan Africanism because the imperialists are determined to loot the riches of Africa for themselves, even using violence or financing proxy wars in Africa to achieve their heinous objectives and Pan Africanism must never be just a meeting of African Heads of State Pan Africanism created African States.

Pan Africanism is older than these states. A United States of Africa has taken so long because many African leaders in this African Union are not Pan Africanists and They have no qualifications to drive the Pan African agenda It is like asking capitalists to drive a communist agenda or asking communists to drive a capitalist agenda.
