Ghana

'Ghana: Conversation & Development' is a book about the cry, frustrations, and aspirations of the good people of Ghana. It nourishes, refreshes and equips the political and economic mindsets of the Ghanaian people and attempts to serve as a channel of communication to the new President and his administration after December 2008 General Elections. Many issues have been discussed including social, political and economic issues. This book critically analyses how Ghana, our motherland would be able to meet her millennium objectives at the shortest possible time.

Road accidents in the country seem to spiral out of control, it is very pathetic how hundreds of Ghanaians lost their love ones because of road accidents especially during Easter and Christmas seasons. Time is now due to stop people even policy makers taken advantage of funerals just to show off their wealth. This little book also provides solid recommendations on how this 'canker', which is slowly, but far eating into our fabrics will be solved once and for all.

Can Ghana achieve any meaningful economic growth without the contributions of our well-cherished traditional rulers? Can the Ghana oil of commercial quantity find at the Cape Three Points in the Western Region be a blessing or a curse?

The book* is not just a must read, it is entirely pleasurable and the commentaries are well written. It contains great human insight interwoven into the twists and turns of the dreams of the loving people of Ghana. I deemed this necessary believing that the new President and his administration, our traditional rulers, policy makers, schools, colleges and students in higher academic learning would make optimum use of it. Read the materials thoroughly, think carefully, dig deeper, make the necessary sacrifices, adopt some wisdom and make yourself and Ghana very proud.
