Recommended Radio & TV programs in Ghana

By -
People normally say that there are not a lot of positive or educational programs on television and radio in Ghana. We clamor for more of such programs and shows to change mindsets in Ghana for the better and equip people with information and skills to do more and better. Well, there are a few of these programs and they are gaining in stature. The +GhanaThink Foundation seeks to ensure that people are aware of all these programs, no matter where in Ghana they can be accessed.

I'd like to single out a few programs. The +Mpwr show on +Y1079FM run by +Emmanuel A. Gamor & +Amma Aboagye is a signature show so far as this calendar is concerned. The show highlights many young Ghanaians who are doing great things in Ghana and is building a collective audience that is inspired and motivated. I've been on the show a couple of times to promote +Barcamp Tema & +Barcamp Accra. Many other things I am involved in, +Junior Camp Ghana, +Ahaspora Ghana & +Global Shapers Accra events have had representatives on the show. I also love the Citi Business Edition with +Benkoku Avle on +Citi97.3FM and Springboard Virtual University show with the +Springboard Road Show Foundation on Joy 99.7 FM.

This calendar will be up online at calendar.ghanathink.org, but you can always find it here. See the Calendar of Barcamp & other type events in Ghana here. If you have a show to submit, kindly send info to abocco @ gmail dot com

Official Pick-up lines to try out for fun

By -
A friend and I were discussing pick up lines the other day and if they do work, etc. They've been a few that I've wanted to use but I haven't mustered enough courage to try them. I'm still collecting my thoughts for that blog entry on women too. Earlier today, I realised my cousin had tagged me in some note full of pick-up lines and that list was hilarious. I have now run out of excuses to try some pick-up lines. After all, what do I have to lose? Don't I want to actually see what will happen? Won't I have some juicy stories to tell? I would, that's why I will be picking out of these pick-up lines next time I am inna di club or some other appropriate or unappropriate location. So here goes - I can't find my puppy, can you help me find him? I think he went into this cheap motel room. Let's do breakfast tomorrow. Should I call you or nudge you? Yo Baby, you be my Dairy Queen, I'll be your Burger King, you treat me right, and I'll do it yo...

Learnt how to say "What is your name" & "My name is" in 23 African languages

By -
Depending on which country I am in and who I am speaking to, I can have 1 out of about 7 names. You probably know my real one, but you do know my Ugandan , Kenyan , Nigerian , Ethiopian , Tanzanian and South African ones? Or my real other name which I use to call myself when I meet some lucky lady I feel like saying it to? Just in case, you happen to be in certain place or country and you feel you have to pull one of these out, let's learn how to say " What is your name " and " My name is " in 23 African languages. :-) Thanks to my friends who helped me pull this list together recently as I had missed writing blog posts such as these. Akan: Wo din de s É› n?   Me din de .. Yeah, name in Twi is "din". It might be more popular to hear people say  Y É› fr É›  wo s É› n? &  Y É› fr É› me ... which directly translates to "What do we call you? & We call me...  Ga: Te ats É› É”  kbo t É› Å‹ Å‹ ? Ats É› É”  mi..  I learnt this once but I don...

Learnt how to say "Thank You" in 23 African languages

By -
Today, I learnt how to say "Thank You" in yet another African language. So let me take a stab at seeing if I can say "Merci" in 23 African languages. And let's share some small attendant info. :-) Akan: Medaase . What you thought I wouldn't add my mother tongue? Some folks can't say what "thank you" is in their lingua francas. Such a fracas. Don't belittle this at all at all. Ga: Oyiwaladonn . I don't remember when I learnt this but I do know I learnt to say "Nnuu Ga" (I can't speak Ga) during the time I came to Accra to represent KNUST JSS in Kiddie Quiz and me and my Kumasi-living mates were testing our Ga knowledge. Ewe: Akpe . I love saying "Akpe kakaa" and I am not sure why. Dagbani: Ti pagi da . Yeap, Jemila Abdulai taught me this one. Thrice. You can also say Mpagya . Hausa: Na gode . I should have known this a long time ago but thanks to Manre Chirtau, I will not forget this one. Ever. Alafia lo! S...
