GHANA MY MOTHERLAND by Reverend Georgina Mensah-Brown Pdf

Old things are old. Why should I be bothered with old news when I am moving forward?. History belongs to those who lived it. We are also making ours. This is what some young adults would say, but from where community have reached, some might not be able to tell as to how to focus on the future. Do you know that people have been walking to school daily covering three or more miles to school and back in many places?. Can you think a child going to school barefooted as compared to our modern world?. When did the market become dry with the sale of no fish except one type of fish whether people liked it or not?. What happens when governments are overthrown only to continue facing hardships. Have you come across empty shops with essential goods being hoarded and sold in private? When there was no fashion of today, what sort of dresses were the fashion of yesterday. If you were to be in any underdeveloped country or certain parts of Africa or elsewhere, would you be able to compare where you live and why others don’t have what you have. Ghana my mother is a simple conversation to tell the younger generation in a simple conversation form, how far the country has come from the old to the new with one more step along the world to go.

THE INDEPENDENCE DAY OF GHANA by THE INDEPENDENCE DAY OF GHANA Pdf

BY Sheikh Muhammad Aminu Yakub Bamba Sheikh Muhammad Aminu Yakub Bamba was born in Accra, the capital of the Republic of Ghana then Gold Coast in the middle of the year 1950. He started learning the Alphabets of Arabic and the Holy Quran in a Makaranta (School) at New Town in the Capital. His father Alhaji Yakubu Bamba sent him to his niece Hajia Habibah and her husband (who is his father’s cousin) Alhaji Ahmad Musah in Ejura-Ashanti to continue learning the Holy Qur’an when he was ten years old, that was in 1960. In 1963, he was sent to Tamale in the Northern Region of Ghana, to one Mallam called Alhaji Yakubu Ishaq to continue his learning of the Holy Quran. In January 1966, he was brought back to Ejura at the request of his elder cousin Hajia Habibah, and then sent to L.A. No. 1 Primary school by her, to fulfill the advice of his departed father. He left the school after only two terms, because of a confusion between him and a teacher who wanted to cheat him. So he was absent from class room up to the end of the following term, when he was moved to T.I. Ahmadiyah Primary School in Ejura – Ashanti. In 1969, he was pulled out from the school because of his intelligence, with the reason that he would become a Christian if he continued, because all the teachers at that time were Christians. And that was the end of classroom for the then young and intelligent man. In 1972, he decided to go back to Tamale on his own to continue his Arabic and Islamic education, and teaching children Arabic Alphabets and recitation of the Holy Qur’an. In 1976, he decided to go to Kano in the Northern Nigeria to continue his education, where he learnt various courses: Islamic law, Arabic language, Arabic grammar, Etymology, Commentary of the Holy Quran, and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) Traditions. He 6 specialized in Islamic law of inheritance. He came back to Ghana in 1983 and established a school in Ejura called: Ihya-ud-dini Islamic School, popularly known as Mallam Aminu’s Islamic School in 1984. The school was adopted by the Government in 1998, and is doing well in the West African Examinations. His duties are: Teaching, Preaching and Writing Several Islamic and Knowledgeable books. He has over fifty (50) books to his credit currently, ranging from prose to poetry, or poetical composition. One of his most important books is this book "The Independence Day of Ghana”. Praise is only for Allah, the Lord of the Worlds. May the Almighty Allah bless you all. Ameen.

When life is not okay, but you are struggling in life, this book is for you to reexamine and change your goal, job title, and social status. 2 2

The People of Ghana by Godfrey Mwakikagile Pdf

This is a general survey of Ghana and its people. Subjects covered include the country's regions and their people; Ghana's identity as a nation and how it faced challenges to national unity during the struggle for independence; the nature of the post-colonial state; the asymmetrical relationship between the north and the south rooted in the colonial era, a structural imbalance which continues to have a negative impact on the wellbeing of northerners and which could perpetuate inequalities between the two parts of the country; Ghana's place in the Pan-African world because of the leadership provided by the country's first prime minister – later president – Kwame Nkrumah; and its success in forging unity on the anvil of diversity. Among the people the author has covered include an African American community whose members were given some land in the Volta Region in the eastern part of the country for permanent settlement of the descendants of African slaves who want to return to the motherland. He describes it as a distinct ethnic group with the same attributes indigenous groups have and which they use to identify themselves as ethnic entities. The community has acquired an identity of its own and qualifies as an ethnic group because its members have a common history, language and culture as diasporans who lost their African identity under white domination in the United States and were forced to adopt a Euro-American culture and the English language. The author was closely associated with the founders of the African American community in Ghana, known as Fihankra, when he was a student in the United States and has written about them in some of his works including his autobiography, “My Life as an African.” Members of the general public and students may find this work to be useful if they want to learn some facts about Ghana, the first country in sub-Saharan Africa to win independence.
