I’m about to wash my hair. Those of you who go Awww🄰 at long sisterlocks and dream of having them… need to know: it’s a full blown workout and chore, then you need to time to dry it out. Send me comfort food. And oh …I’ve got Zongo stew on standby.

Ghana’s biggest showbiz night is when the harsh truth becomes clear; the industry is a broke one. From the celebrities, attendees and the production, the financial struggle is painfully visible. Sadly, there isn’t even enough glamour to hide the cracks.

Had an epiphany yesterday; the talking stage is dying on arrival cos nobody’s pulling out the family album anymore. Back then, flipping through pics with a bottle of Fanta could carry a whole relationship. Now it’s just ā€œwydā€ & vibes. Bring back photo albums and save love.

We’re now begging traders to leave the streets. How did we get here ? In 5yrs, we’ll be begging Okada riders to stop, because it will become an issue in Accra. Have you seen how pragya has taken over the Garden City? It’s coming. But people are hungry. Dilemma of a ghost ?

Before you tweet, breathe. Not every issue needs a partisan ā€œnoiseā€. Let the Government’s communications team do its job. Stop breaking, unbreaking, re-breaking, spinning, justifying & parroting issues, it makes your own Party look bad. Or better yet, get some comms training.

This was my JSS, St. Augustine’s Anglican, Akwatia Line, Kumasi. I wrote my BECE in 1998 at Kumasi Anglican Secondary School; we shared the same space. P.S. Nobody should come and ask me what grade I got… 🤣🤣

šŸ¤” May be schools under trees might not be such a bad idea if the right skills are given to the kids. Aren’t they better off, health-wise, than kids sitting in an AC room all day? We could’ve leveraged this as part of our culture, just like the Montessori did. šŸ‡¬šŸ‡­ is untapped.

So much fast news is being churned out by bloggers. GJA, wouldn’t it be great to partner with GIJ to organize workshops for them on ethics, reporting, & writing? They’re here to stay and can complement traditional journalism. Look their way to empower them to augment the media.

I’m just practicing how to take pictures and send to my grandkids when I grow up. Big closes up, over overexposed, reflections, funny angles etc.

A very, very, very unpopular take... During one of my usual scroll sessions through Instagram reels, I came across a video listing jobs that might become extinct due to AI. Customer experience was mentioned, and I instantly disagreed. Here’s why... linkedin.com/posts/afia-k-d…

My mom said ā€œOhianii lawyer ne Auntie Naaā€ and it’s so true… Like how are you dragging people’s children out of classrooms because of how they look? At university? Please, can we be serious for once ?

If I had listened to all the people who said natural hair & locks weren’t professional, I wouldn’t be here today. I would’ve hidden the very thing that grounds me. Authenticity isn’t a liability it’s your edge.

I’ve noticed a trend in some films on Prime lately, men asking, ā€œCan I kiss you?ā€, ā€œIs it okay if I come in?ā€ Even during intimate scenes, they’re asking ā€œIs this okay?ā€ I’m not sure if it’s the filmmakers or the platform driving this shift, but I love it. Consent šŸ’Æ

Aging is happening. My knees can testify. But the face? Still out here pretending it’s 2005. If this is 40s, sign me up again. šŸ™šŸ¾

I may be the only one not excited about a cultural centre. Yes, I am heavily biased towards healthcare so I was hoping that JM would prioritise a tertiary children’s hospital. That said, my disappointment does not diminish my love & respect for him and his vision.
