  • I went to Kumasi for 12 hours and what a ride it was! I have never in my life experienced such a concentration of information as I did on this day.
    By the time I got back to Accra, my brain was fried and I was completely exhausted.
    Come and experience Kumasi with me for the first time as I get to see the King's Palace, do some Kente weaving, eat raw cocoa for the first time, and lots more.
    Let's go to Kumasi!
    If you have an inspiring story to share please send me an email to naturalghanagirl@gmail.com I'd love to hear it.
    I am also open to consultations for those of you who would like to move to Ghana and would like a more tailored one-to-one session with me.
    Check me out on my social media pages:

    Wonderful video. The Kumasi International Airport will be a game changer and give that city the credit it deserves. Also, the Asante monarchy with its checks and balances is top-tier. Very fascinating culture, history, and people.

      ​@benbo7042 Within that political arrangement or framework labeled as a Republic also exists a Kingdom of, by and for a people. That Kingdom has a Monarchy. You may choose to delude yourself but the reality is immutable and immovable.

    • @edmcgeman5084
      @edmcgeman5084 Год назад +3

      The British were amazed about and intrigued by the intricacies of the checks and balance systems underpinning the Asante Kingdom's Monarchy. Based on that system, one of the British Generals then proceeded to declare that the Asante Monarchy was more accountable to the people than their own. And surely, the international Airport is going to be a game changer. How that was not done 20 years ago even solely as a means of an economic engine in that region and afar, is just unbelievable.

      @@edmcgeman5084 I think folks forget that the Asante Kingdom existed before the British and colonizers. If we would give compatible democracy a deep dive maybe Africa would not be the basket case it is now. Every system has its flaws but our system of government designed by us, for us works better in my opinion and observation than an alien form of governance.

      @@edmcgeman5084 Let me ask you villager this question. Why does your Chief travel with a Passport on which it is inscribed : THE REPUBLIC OF GHANA? There is no where in the world where you have a REPUBLIC and a MONARCH at the same time. Google tells us that Africa has only 3 monarchies and they are: The Kingdom of Morocco, the Kingdom of Lesotho, and the Kingdom of Eswatini ( formerly known as Swaziland) You bush people should do more research before you expose your ignorance.

    African countries MUST trade among their selves to foster self sufficiency as a continent.As s continent blessed with every imaginable raw product for modern day industrial development, their economies integrated can function independently of the rest of the world if needs be. Without Africa 80 % of the so called G7 countries would be poorer than Africa as it is now in its development.These G7 countries do not have the raw materials to sustain their modern development they exhibit now. It's the octopus like set up of the present ŵorld economic order and trading system to benefit the G7 countries ,at the expense of a stymied development of Africa.
