GHANA CAN BECOME BETTER IF WE BECOME BETTER

 

Let’s talk about Ghana. It is easy to display gross apathy towards the nation and its future. But truth is, a fallen country may either have fallen citizens or citizens who become refugees and slaves in other countries.

This country deserves committed people who want to sow seeds of integrity. Seeds that they themselves may never benefit from. Seeds sown because of the sons and daughters unborn.

The nation demands men and women of integrity. Young men and women hungry to live truly with the principles of freedom and justice. The country needs men who once again believe that the easy and corrupt ways that grant them convenience today  endangers the freedom and liberty of the children the nation is yet to bear. We have duty calling!

We cannot act religious in churches, mosques and where have you while we act like insane devils in our homes, offices and positions as citizens. We all complain about the rot in high offices but have failed to take a stand against the corruption that surrounds us. Most of us either condone, promote or benefit from unpatriotic and corrupt activities. It was Mahatma Gandhi who said, “Be the change that you wish to see in the world”. We have to be the change we want to see in Ghana.

We must have some form of awakening to defend our flag and logos again. Corruption may solve some individual problems of today, but it would throw the whole society out of gear sooner or later. Greed kills more than it prospers you as an individual corrupt being.

Let us once again cherish “fearless honesty”,embrace integrity and patriotism as a people. Not everybody would do right. But at least, honesty, integrity, patriotism and right doing can begin from you.
