Ghana and Nigeria are not far from each other in terms of geographical proximity. I stand to be corrected on this; I believe that in terms of culture and lifestyle, the two countries are not substantially different.

Sometimes, I find it thorny to distinguish between a Nigerian girl and a Ghanaian girl when they pass me on the street.  Most of the important people in my life are Nigerians. What If I told you my girlfriend or baby’s mother is a Nigerian? To me, Nigerians are not merely our neighbours, they are our sisters and brothers and we share a lot in common than in difference.

On this platform and many others including “outside the virtual world”, there is a growing animosity and loathing between most Ghanaians and Nigerians. I have heard a Nigerian saying, I will never date a Ghanaian and have also come across a Ghanaian saying, I will never date a Nigerian. I do not only find this absurd, but also very shallow.

I don’t really believe in this Men are from Mars and Women from Venus thing. Neither do I believe in any rules or follow a book when it comes to boyfriend/girlfriend relationship. I just prefer going with the mind and heart. If I recall correctly, there was an article about a specific topic that intrigued me. As usual I enthusiastically shared it with some of my friends. I later on did a little bit of research for more information. Ironically I came across interesting synonyms. Polyamory

It is very fascinating when it comes to relationships, whether parent-children relationship, friendship, husband-wife, boyfriend-girlfriend relationship and so forth. When it comes to parent and children relationship, it is just unconditional, and that is what fascinates me the most. Imagine you have something to count on with no conditions? Isn’t it lovely?

When I published one of Awal’s performance at the just ended TV3’s Talented Kids show on here, a lot of us gave Awal  all the words of inspiration he deserves. I have been thinking about the  talent Awal possesses when it comes to rap music and the fact that he needs to be pushed up the ladder.

I went back searching on his performances and the video below  caught my eyes and interest. Sarkodie  performing with Awal was just like Sarkodie in the mirror. Young Awal did not miss a line, nor did Sarkodie’s presence slow him now, check out the video below…

The latter part of 2003 saw the emergence of a new heir to traditional Ghanaian music. It was not as if, he was reinventing the wheel but something almost surreal about the Afro-beat singer and performer Albert Apozori, trading as King Ayisoba made him an instant hit and his fame soared. “Siri na”, “Kai Kai”, and a host of other post modernist musical innovations would fetch him some multiple awards.

However I have heard and read about his attitudinal problems upon which I am writing this piece.
