Nana Addo motivates Nima "Whiz kid"
Wednesday, January 05, 2011:- The Presidential Candidate of the
NPP, Nana Akufo-Addo, has encouraged Manaf Abdallah, the overall
champion of the J. H. S section of the National Hard Spell and
Quiz Contest 2010 to “continue rising to the top on the safe
ladder of education.”
Manaf, a 16 year old student from Providence Junior High School,
Nima, on Tuesday visited the offices of Nana Addo, also a
resident of Nima, Accra.
The teenager was adjudged overall winner of the competition
after 3 months of fierce contest on 30th December, 2010.
Asked what he wants to be in future, a shy Manaf answered “Nana,
I want to be a doctor so that I can save lives in future.”
Manaf went on to say that he is hoping to gain secondary school
admission at Adisadel, “because they have very good science
facilities.”
Nana Addo on his part congratulated young Manaf and tasked him
to continue to take his books seriously as “education is the
sure way to the top. Already, you have shown yourself to be
outstanding and we have to do our part to help you. For your
part, you have to continue to take your books seriously.”
Nana Addo continued, “I grew up in Nima and I am glad that a
young man from my own Nima is competing on the national front
and coming first. It is another testimony that the best of
talents can be found in every home or community in Ghana.”
Linking it to his vision of creating a new society of
opportunities, he stressed, “the least society can give to its
children are education and skills so that they can also have the
confidence and opportunities to make something of their future
lives.”
Nana Addo told Manaf that he can attribute his success in life
to the education he had and his own father became a success
through education. “My point is that education is a foundation
that can significantly change a family from generation to
generation and beyond.”
He urged Manaf to remain focused on his dream to become a
medical doctor and have the opportunity to save lives and better
his own life and that of his family.
Nana Addo offered him 200 Ghana Cedis to buy books and “read,
read and read more and wide.”

Africans don't have wars, they have 'genocides'
Telegraph, Jan 6, Ghanadot -
The speed and casualness, the robotic thoughtlessness,
with which the term “genocide” is applied to African
conflicts is extraordinary. No matter how relatively
small-scale the conflict is, no matter where it is
taking place in Africa, it will quickly be stamped with
the G-word, marking it out as a product of exterminatory
bloodlust rather than politics..
