There are lot of Ghanaians doing very successful projects in a number of organisations in this country (UK) and worldwide.
We have some of the best non-governmental organisation activists in this country and worldwide.
Ghana has produced first black African Secretary General of the United Nations, the first black African chair of the UN General Assembly, the first black African cabinet minister in UK and even the first black African Conservative Party member of parliament in UK.
Above all, Ghana has even produced the African of the millenium.
Don't we have the talents to help our country (Ghana)?
Definitely, we have, and can direct our efforts at helping Ghana.
Ghana can do better ! |
