#Ghana60YearsOn: #MightyAfrican stories, thoughts and hopes

By -
We called it the GhanaThink Foundation because we thought (and would continue to think) about Ghana. It's been more than 12 years since GhanaThink was born. It's also been a while since I did a blog post, or even wrote a piece for this #mightyafrican blog . Today is a great day to break that duck. Ghana is 60 years old ! We are celebrating, marking, reminiscing, criticizing, strategizing, thinking and doing.  I love #Ghana so much. It's great to mark #Ghana60YearsOn . #Morevim 4 all that we do. #GhanaAt60 : Less talk, more action. More vim to that. pic.twitter.com/oy793QMr8X — Ato Ulzen-Appiah (@Abocco) March 6, 2017 To be frank, I am not as excited about Ghana, mostly because of our growth pace, development we can fell in around us and in our pockets and the politics and antics I've seen that are hurting Ghana and don't seem to be abating.

Neither am I doing this gate because of #FuguGate which made me say #ThankYouZambia and which gave birth to #FuguFriday. I learnt about Zambian music from some friends, around my time at MIT and then later at Stanford . Google helped during the Museke days too. I wanted to make a list of the top 5, but there are too many songs. So I have aggregated 11 , to represent Zambia in the World Cup of #MusicWeDeyFeel . The starting eleven . Drop your opinions, props, suggestions in the comments section .

I asked some friends to name their top 5 songs ever, from Cameroon . I do not have a Camerounian alter-ego, yet. I used what I have learnt around Museke . I also asked Google Gemini & other AI bots. You know AI is my friend these days right? I also contributed my top 5. I have never been to Cameroun , which is crazy. No, I have not been there for any weddings, even though my date for the senior ball in MIT was Camerounian. I learnt about Cameroonian music from her, others at MIT and then later at Stanford , and others I met during my time in the US, and traveling around the continent. Google helped during the Museke days too. I wanted to do a list of top 5, but there are too many songs. So I have aggregated 11 , to represent Cameroun in the World Cup of #MusicWeDeyFeel .
