Education in South
Africa: where did it go
wrong?



The country performs dismally in
international comparisons, yet
allocates 20% of its budget to
education.


Other articles you might like
by Lucy Holborn
Sep 01, 2013
Lucy Holborn graduated in politics
and philosophy at Durham University
and completed a master’s degree at
the University of the Witwatersrand.
She was research manager at the
South African Institute of Race
Relations and now works as an
analyst at Ernst & Young Advisory
Services.




“It’s bad. It just is,” says
Malehlohonolo Khauoe about the
education she received at a rural
school outside Matatiele in South
Africa’s Eastern Cape province,
the country’s worst-performing
region. Schooling here is so
inferior that the national
education ministry took over its
management.
This is the frontline of the
education crisis in South Africa.
The 19-year-old is one of its
millions of victims. When pressed
to describe what is so bad at her
school, she says the “problem is
mostly with the teachers”.
Gugulethu Xhala, 20, is from the
same village but went to a
different school in the area. She
agrees: “Teachers sometimes just
talk about whatever, nothing to do
with education. They are not
being monitored to make sure
they are doing a good job.”
Both women have dropped out:
Ms Xhala after grade 8 and Ms
Khauoe in the middle of grade 11
(the penultimate year of high
school) when she fell pregnant.
Neither has a job and without a
decent education their prospects
are bleak.


South Africa spends 20% of its
budget on education, or 6.4% of
GDP (considerably more than
many other emerging market
economies) and yet performs
dismally in international
comparisons. The World Economic
Forum’s competitiveness index for
2012–2013 ranks South Africa’s
overall education system at 140
out of 144 countries, and its
maths and science education at
143 out of 144.




The minister of basic education,
Angie Motshekga, denies there is
a crisis. She must be blind: 1.2m
children were enrolled in grade 1
in 2001, but only 44% stayed in
the system to take their National
Senior Certificate (NSC) in 2012.
Only 12% of that grade 1 cohort
ended up passing their NSC well
enough to study for a university
degree; and only 11% passed
maths with a mark of 40% or
above.
Why, then, is South Africa not
reaping what it spends?
Mesdames Khauoe’s and Xhala’s
experiences highlight three
critical factors that affect
educational outcomes: teachers,
the management of teachers, and
outside disruptions to schooling
(in Ms Khauoe’s case, falling
pregnant). Jennifer Shindler, a
specialist manager at JET
Education Services, a non-profit
research and development
organisation, terms these “in-
classroom factors, such as
teaching and resources; in-school
factors, such as leadership and
management; and out-of-school
factors, such as parental
involvement and socio-economic
circumstances”.
Teachers take the flak for South
Africa’s declining education
standards. “The content
knowledge of teachers is a serious
challenge,” admits David Silman,
a director at the basic education
department. Ariellah Rosenberg,
head of educator empowerment at
ORT SA, a non-profit organisation
that provides teacher training and
skills development, agrees.
“Education is only as good as your
teachers, and our universities are
failing to produce quality
teachers, particularly in maths
and science. Teachers also have
patchy content knowledge. We go
to schools and find that teachers
are only teaching the parts of the
curriculum that they are
comfortable with.”
Madelaine, 62, who asked to
remain anonymous, is a teacher
with 40 years’ experience in a
formerly white public high school
east of Johannesburg. She agrees
that teachers do not know enough.
Recently a department head in
her school gave a test to pupils
studying tourism. It asked them to
name two countries in South
America. Italy was among the
answers suggested by the
department head, Madelaine says.
“A professional attitude needs to
be instilled into young people
entering the [teaching]
profession. For many people it is
‘sheltered employment’, as they
fail to meet deadlines and present
quality lessons and yet are never
sanctioned,” she says.
One fix would be to introduce
school inspectors. The South
African Democratic Teachers
Union (Sadtu), the country’s
largest teaching union, is opposed.
Their stance harks back to a time
when inspectors from the white
National Party government were
viewed with suspicion in black
schools. “They were just there to
find fault, policing teachers
without playing a development
role,” said Mugwena Maluleke,
Sadtu general secretary, in
December 2012 when President
Jacob Zuma proposed
reintroducing inspectors.
However, both Mr Silman and Ms
Shindler suggest that much can be
done even without inspectors.
“There are two factors crucial in
education: teachers and
management,” Mr Silman says. “A
well-run school will almost
always have a good principal.”
School management, which
largely depends on principals, is
one of the “in-school” factors
mentioned by Ms Shindler.
Education district offices, which
fall under provincial education
departments, are supposed to
support and monitor schools, both
in administration and subject
areas. However, Ms Shindler says,
the districts are often
understaffed and their personnel
may not have the right skills. The
districts cannot visit and support
schools often or effectively
enough to ensure good quality
education.
Without well-functioning district
support and monitoring, a
school’s success often comes down
to its principal. School governing
bodies (SGBs) hire principals
subject to the approval of the
provincial heads of department. A
well-run school is therefore likely
to have a well-functioning SGB,
Mr Silman says. SGBs include
teachers and pupils, but a
majority of their members must
be parents.
However, about two-thirds of
South African children do not live
in the same household as their
biological parents. Poverty and
adult illiteracy often prevent
parents who are present from
getting more involved in their
children’s education. “In our
interventions in education we are
often missing the parents,” Ms
Rosenberg says. “Parents play a
huge role, but I think often
parents don’t have the knowledge
of how to help.”
The value of education in South
Africa has been lost, says Jonathan
Jansen, rector and vice-chancellor
of the University of the Free State.
It started in the 1950s with the
destruction of church schools,
which historically had been a
source of “intellectual
consciousness” in the black
population, he says. The 1976
student uprising also eroded the
authority of teachers and the state
as providers of education, he
argues. This effect can be seen
today when people (including
parents) blockade schools or burn
libraries during community
protests.
Other out-of-school factors, such
as poverty, shackle the attitude of
parents and society towards
education. “Socio-economic
factors go down through
generations and starkly affect
educational outcomes for
children,” Ms Shindler says. Some
36% of seven to 24-year-olds are
not in education because they do
not have enough money for fees,
according to Statistics South
Africa. Family commitments,
having to work at home, and
pregnancy account for another
26% of those not receiving
instruction. Only 7% are not in
education because they consider it
useless.
Many bright young people are
missing out on the chance of
getting a higher education
because they cannot afford it, Mr
Jansen says. “There are not
enough bursaries for the bulge of
students now coming out of the
school system,” he explains, even
if pupils unqualified to study for
higher education are excluded.
His point highlights an area of
success that is easily overlooked
amid the disaster stories coming
out of South Africa’s education
system. Access to education has
improved dramatically over the
last few decades. In 1980 just
30,000 black African pupils took
their matric (the predecessor to
the NSC). Now over 400,000 black
candidates sit the exam every
year. The number of children
enrolled in pre-primary schools
has nearly trebled in the last
decade alone.
Yet this improved access has
brought with it the challenge of
educating a fast- expanding
school population using teachers
who were often themselves the
product of apartheid-era Bantu
(black) education. “In criticising
education policy in South Africa,
people often forget the challenges
that were faced after 1994,” Ms
Shindler says. “The transition
period involved a difficult process
of amalgamating all the old
education departments, equalising
expenditure and distributing
teachers. On the whole I think
very good policies were
introduced to handle that
process.” Some would disagree,
arguing that post-apartheid
policies have been part of the
problem, in particular the
frequent changing of the
curriculum.
Mr Silman admits that
compromises were made in this
transition period, particularly in
giving the provinces more power
over education. “I can understand
the desire after the apartheid era
to decentralise power over
government functions like
education, but it can make it very
hard for a national department to
ensure that its policies are
implemented effectively.”
Arguably the failures in South
Africa’s education system reflect
the problems that have beset
governance in the country more
generally since 1994. A lack of
skills, monitoring and
accountability have led to poor
policy implementation, inferior
training of teachers and
bureaucrats, and a system many
people have lost hope in. Those
who can afford to are increasingly
sending their children to private
schools.
“It does seem that parents are
voting with their feet,” says Simon
Lee, information manager at the
Independent Schools Association
of Southern Africa. The number of
pupils in independent schools
nearly doubled between 2000 and
2012 to over 500,000. The
government also does not express
the same degree of hostility to the
private sector as it does in other
fields, such as health. A number
of public-private initiatives,
ranging from teacher training to
the sharing of resources, show
that cooperation is being
embraced to the benefit of schools
and pupils.
Unfortunately any solution will
come too late for Mesdames
Khauoe and Xhala and millions of
others.

Vestiges of Barbaric Animalistic Ritual Murders in Ghana


ByEric Kwasi Bottah
8/19/2008 7:57:54 PM -
Family and friends, if you are like me, perhaps you were sickened to your stomach by a news item that appeared on Ghanaweb regarding serial killings of hunchbacks (see Ghanaweb August 18, 2008).
Briefly the macabre news item pointed to the arrest of three people near Bibiani, Western Region, namely Nuhu Billa, alias Apana, Alidu Musah, Alias Tony and Abudu Rahman, alias Taller who is a butcher, plus a fourth person missing at large, who conspired to kill one Musa Iddi, a hunchback for his hump to enable them get rich quickly through juju, i.e. “sikaduro”.
This is just plain barbaric. How in the world do people get the idea that hunchbacks have mother lodes of cash in their humps? Now if they could not make themselves rich by their humps, how could they help others to be rich? Over there in Tanzania, the phenomenon is to capture and kill albinos for similar purposes.
I have pondered a lot over the sources of our “sikaduro” and “bayifuo” (witchcraft) beliefs, and I can't seem to fathom out how notions of witches and wizards, with magic powers, are so entrenched in our communities. I do not believe the powers attributed to witches and wizards are real, neither do I believe in juju or “sikaduro”. This is what I think though; that the “bayifuo” belief is most probably a throwback to our not so distant past primitive societies where people engaged in cannibalism, and ritual sacrifices that involved the murdering of people for their blood to imbue oneself, rightly or wrongly, with some extraordinary powers. This is not uniquely African; all human societies have gone through such experiences in their development, but in Africa vestiges of them have become entrenched and continue to be patronized by people of all walks of life. Some politicians, businessmen, professionals, Christians, and Moslems, dabble in it. The fact that they dabble in it, does not mean the powers projected to them are real, rather the criminal behaviour is. If one killed somebody for some powers, one thing should be made clear to him, he has committed murder and there is no proven human measurement to show he derived any perceived powers. The thing is, belief in these barbaric practices defies logic, and it does not necessarily depend on a person’s level of education or station in life. The irony is that whether people are succeeding in life or not, rich or poor, they would find some rational to immerse in it, if they so wishes.
Even though it exists in western societies as black magic; back in our distant primitive societies, cannibalism and ritual murder coincided, overlapped and infused each other. I would submit that it is notions of those cannibalistic and ritual sacrifices that have been uplifted and forged unto witchcraft in our modern era. People still have imagery and imagination of what obtained then, in their minds today, as are told in oral history, and they associate them with witchcraft rather than cannibalism. In Africa today, I find some correlation between the images and beliefs that are attributed to witches as something that greatly parallels primitive societies where people either hid behind masks or openly practiced cannibalism and human sacrifices as part of their traditional religion. It fits into a grandiose of over all religiosity and worship. Just think of it,cannibalsare often primitive people who converge on special occasions to eat their prisoners of war or the sick amongst them. So also is the belief today that witches meet at night to feast on the spiritual body of victims which are magically donated by one of their members in some kind of rotation. I find

SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS

It is estimated that of the 21.6 million people living in Ghana, 650,000are suffering from a severemental disorder and a further 2,166, 000 are suffering from a moderate to mildmentaldisorder. The treatment gap is 98% of the total population expected tohave a mental disorder.
Mentalhealth services in Ghanaareavailable at most levels of care. However, the majority of care is provided through specialized psychiatric hospitals (close to the capital and servicing only small proportion of the population), with relatively less government provision and funding for general hospital and primary health care based services. The few community based services being providedareprivate.
Great effortsarebeing made to change the model of service provision to one which emphasizes care in the community. However, Ghana's 1972mentalhealth decree strongly emphasized institutional care to the detriment of providingmentalhealth care in primary health care settings, contradictory to both national and international policy directives. Furthermore, procedures for involuntary admission in the 1972 law did not sufficiently protect people against unnecessary admission. Indeed, serious mistreatments of people withmentaldisorders - somehavebeen involuntarily locked away in institutions for decades –havepersisted under this legislation.
COUNTRY PROJECT
Ghana requested the support of WHO in developing a newmentalhealth law to promote best practice in treatment and care and to protect the human rights of people withmentaldisorders.
Through a series of training workshops, broad consultations with key national stakeholders, and ongoing critical analyses and reviews of the different drafts of the new law using WHO materials and tools, Ghana has developed a comprehensiveMentalHealth Bill which protects the rights of people withmentaldisorders and promotesmentalhealth care in the community in accordance with international human rights standards.
WHO is helping Ghana to prepare for the implementation of the new legislation, and has provided guidance on the elaboration of a detailed action plan and regulations for putting the provisions of the law into effect.
Ghana'sMentalHealth Bill has gained the support of doctors, nurses and traditional healers and can serve as a model for other African countries wishing to develop progressivementalhealth laws that respect international human rights standards.

‘Ghanaians still don’t have toilets’

Posted bytodayon Nov 19th, 2013 //NoComment
MinisterofHealth Ms. Sherry Ayittey
Some communities in two-hundred and sixteen administrative districts (216) in the country could be hit with cholera, if national administration do nothing about the current poor sanitation situation
in the communities, the Country DirectorofWater Aid-Ghana, Dr. Afia Zakiya, has hinted.
 
Accordingtoher, although toilet facilities play a vital role in the lifeofpeople, most houses in all the ten regions lack these facilities, forcing residentstovisit public toilets if available in their communities or find other alternativesofeasing themselves.
 
She noted that majorityofGhanaians cannot boastofdecent toilet facilities, saying that Ghanaians are still using make-shift Kumasi Ventilated Improved Pit (KVIP) structure.
 
Addressing a press conference in Accra yesterdaytohighlight on the World Toilet Day which event is today, Dr. Zakiya, who could not hide her worry over the poor conditionsofWater Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) in Ghana, lamented how some Ghanaians queue before, during and after productive hours before attendingtonature’s call.
 
Unfortunately, the country Representative for WaterAid Ghana said those Ghanaians who cannot control themselves in the eventoftheir friends keeping relatively long in the facility defecate in the nearby bushes.
 
Accordingtoher, several public toilets in Ghana are without hand-washing facilities, indicating that “the situation in the country’s public toilets is very bad.”
 
This, she stressed, is the causeofthe “several casesoftyphoid, diarrhoea and cholera we are recording and I am not surprised.”
 
She pointed out that a totalof3.5 million people in Ghana are still withoutaccesstosafe water, noting that in the rural populations lackofaccesstosafe water is as high as 20 per cent.
 
“The governmentofGhana continuestofailtofulfil the promises made at SWA. The 350 million per year that was promised [is] yettobe delivered.
 
…furthermore, this failuretofulfill a promise is done in a context where the budget for sanitation specifically has been considerably reduced (approximately 50 per cent from the previous year,)” Dr.  Zakiya disclosed.
 
She indicated that a staggering87per centofthe population (more than 21 million people) do nothaveaccesstoadequate sanitation.
And 4,000 children under the ageoffive die every year from diarrhoea in Ghana, largely as a resultofpoor sanitation and hygiene.
 
She said poor sanitation impacts public health in many ways noting that someofthe most “disturbing is the impactofpoor sanitation on child health.”
 
Accordingtoher, twoofthe most pressure issues are malnutrition and stunting, explaining that the ripple effect goes ontoeffect educational achievements and general wellness.
 
She therefore called on mediatocontinuetoinfluence duty bearerstoembrace transparency and accountability.
 
In ordertofind meansofmitigating an outbreakofcholera in the vicinity, Dr. Zakiya called on government, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and other stakeholderstohelp Ghanaians get good toilet facilities.

Ghanaians should expect difficult times ahead- Manso Adubia-MP

NPP’s Member of Parliament for Manso Adubia, Hon. Yaw Frimpong Addo has cautioned Ghanaians to expect difficulttimesahead after describing the 2014 Budget as full of taxations and no iota of hope of improving the lives of the ordinary Ghanaian citizen.  
“Ghanaians should only expecttoughtimescome next year, that is 2014, because this budget is just full taxation and it’s good for us to tell Ghanaians the truth that things are going to be verytoughnext year” he said.
According to the Lawmaker, Ghanaians should expect nothing like a royal-ride but rather slave- ride next year as portrayed by some the government communication machinery.
Hon. Yaw Frimpong Addo further continued  that Parliament, which happens to be the second Arm of Government was currently facing financial crisis hence Parliamentary works that were supposed to be done outside House were now been heldinthe Chamber.
He said the menace has since translated into several government businesses as most projects and policies  expected to be executed this year have slowed down due to poor financial backing.
The MP further noted that though the country is currently on its dying streets, all hands must be on desk to ensure that “the economy is brought back to life”.
However, the NDC Member of Parliament for Atebubu-Amantin, Hon. Sanja Nanja conceded also that though the country was going through series of financial challenges, government is effectively working to ensure a smooth ride next year.

Yes he has written this article because in the dungeons of his mind,his perceived and preferred party and candidate lost the elections.one thing I have noticed about some Ghanaians is that,those who think they are very critical of their own African or Ghanaian brothers
are
the number one traitors who do or will do everything to sell or forsake their Afican and Ghanaian identity to the so-called white man period.
and adofo rockson is one example of those Africans orGhanaians.he is the biggest and the genuine worst enemy of Ghana.he is one of those pretenders

Tough Times: Nigerians Flee To Ghana, Vietnam grin


Our correspondents
February 15th, 2009[b]More Nigerians are fleeing to countries like Ghana and Vam to escape the harsh economirealities back home[/b] grin,en as some big businessesre gradually folding up and reloting. LEADERSHIP SUNDAY learnt tat Nigerians now am, Mozamitionally favorites like the United Kingdom, Libya and the USA. Most of the people leaving are pointing to the lack of electricity and insecurity as the cause of their exodus. Those abroad are also vowing that they won’t return home until conditions become better.

Godwin Ukwu (not real name) told our correspondents that he has finished all arrangements to relocate next month. Ukwu said his friends are "making it" in Cameroon and have asked him to join them there. He said: "I’m going to Cameroon to sell beer. My friends are there and they are making it big in their various business. In fact, last Christmas, some of them came home and told us that we are suffering here. For instance, transportation is such a huge problem there. In fact their roads are better than the ones in the East. Besides, my business is suffering as there is no light. Customers will come and they can’t drink my beer because it is not chilled. So, I’m losing customers and business is bad."

Another respondent told our reporters that if he has his way, he would flee the country. Speaking to LEADERSHIP SUNDAY, the man who gave his name as John said that Nigeria has become "hell" for him. John is a graduate of six years and has remained unemployed. According to him, every attempt to get a government or private job has failed. He said: "if I have the opportunity, I would leave this country. In fact, in looking for people who would tell me how to get to Libya. At least, I will get a job and my life would be safer," he said.

Like most unemployed youngsters in the country, John has tried to be self employed. He said: "my uncle gave me some money recently to start something. So I got a corner shop at Kubwa (In Abuja) to start a barbing salon. Right now, the place has been demolished and I’m looking for another place, but even if I get a place, what about light and water? Through the time I had the saloon, it was generator that powered the business and that is very expensive. Even with the generator some weeks, I will have nothing doing because of fuel scarcity. I really want to leave. I love my country but I can’t go on like this," he lamented.

LEADERSSHIP SUNDAY check shows that influx of Nigerians into Ghana doubled after the Presidential election that ushered in a new government there. A Nigerian living in Ghana told correspondents that many of his relatives are pestering him to get them accommodation in Ghana. He said: "I’m amazed at how Nigerians are moving into Ghana these days. You know, in the past it was as if we were stupid leaving here for Ghana, but see what is happening. Each day we see Nigerians trooping in their droves."

The Ghana resident, who spoke anonymously, gave reasons why Ghana is becoming attractive: "the truth is that the society works. In Ghana, there is orderliness, not the chaos you have here. There is constant light and this is important for living. There is also security and respect for human rights. If you ask me it is the turn of Nigerians to run to Ghana like the Ghanaians did in the 80’s. Many Nigerians are in Ghana today, intermarrying and looking for ways to become citizens. I don’t think they would want to return unless conditions change in Nigeria," he said.
A source in Vietnam, told LEADERSHIP SUNDAY that the Vietnamese government is trying to restrict the influx of Nigerians into the country because of the huge number running there.

Libya too has not lost its appeal to Nigerians. In spite of the precarious route, Nigerians daily put their lives on the line to cross over. The journey, mostly done by foot, find Nigerians crossing the Sahara, risking arrest and deadly attacks by patrol team to get to Tripoli, the capital of Libya. Says an official of a prominent government agency concerned with human trafficking, who do not want to be mentioned, " most of the travelers are girls going to engage in prostitution. The men are often their pimps. And no matter the campaign our office is making, the truth is that the rush is still on. We can arrest them or even sensitize them, but what is clear to us is that this is an ongoing war. Sex slaves are still been trafficked abroad. Our agency is helping to stave it off. But no one should be deceived, human trafficking is not going to go away in a long time. The harsh conditions here, coupled with the lure of greener pasture is just too much temptation for many of the girls and their manager to bear. The arrest and pains they suffer during the

Are Ghanaians their own Worst Enemies?

From the observations and conclusions of my White colleagues interested in, and following, the political, economic and social trend of affairs in Ghana, Ghanaians are their own worst enemies. By way of casting doubt on the level of intelligence of Ghanaians as a whole, they wonder how Ghanaians rather extol evil by kowtowing to wealthy criminals, perpetrators of crime of course.
They have been following the"Woyomegate scandal"and other equally scandalous payments of judgment debts to certain individuals and companies with keen interest. They have their mouths agape at the government Ministers and appointees'propensity to defend the criminals duping Ghana.
Classical examples they cite are, how Deputy Information Minister Okudzeto Ablakwah vociferously came out to lend support to Africa Automobile in their bid to con Ghana out of US$1.5 Billion. In addition, how Deputy Chief of Staff, Alex Segbefia and Deputy Attorney General Ebow Barton-Oduro aided and defended Alfred Agbesi Woyome to swindle Ghana.
With all the corrupt and lawless nature of the current National Democratic Congress (NDC) government, coupled with their mediocrity, incompetence and inherency to fabricate lies, they wonder how Ghanaians had the shameless audacity to vote for the NDC even though they RIGGED the elections.

Let me also waddle into this Ghanaian melee to share views on how possibly, Ghanaians have themselves to blame for being their own worst enemies. How sensible are you if, a person who had availed himself of free education throughout his school life, to attain higher qualifications to become the President of a nation, turns round to tell you free education is not good or feasible, and you buy into his idea? Are you not the greatest NINCOMPOOP grin ever to walk the surface of this planetary earth should you believe their deception for a fact? Do you not perceive the mischief in such a person's attempts to prevent you from attaining the same level of his outstanding formal education, social status, and intelligence and so on and so forth?
Truly,"for lack of knowledge my people perish"says God, in the Bible. Why at all should Ghanaians allow cunning persons like Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, Tony Aidoo, Allotey Jacobs, Yaw Boateng Gyan and a host of other"educated illiterates"to take them for granted? Why should you allow these insatiably greedy egoists to play on your intelligence? They make their wealth at the expense of your wellbeing. Are Ghanaians utterly that ignorant and probably stupid?
I do agree with those White colleagues that Ghanaians by their own attitudes have brought self-harm upon themselves. They are their own worst enemies. To hear this statement is my worst nightmare. Then help me to blame all those who voted for, and assisted the calamitous NDC government and party to rig the 2012 elections.
Anyway, I wish every Ghanaian a Merry Christmas irrespective of their political party inclination. However, let us wise up in the new and coming years. For how long can we stay imbeciles in the eyes of our White contemporaries, behaving ourselves irresponsibly as they have not only observed but also concluded? Their expressed views are nothing but the absolute truth. You can hate them, or like them, if you wish. They have said it as it should. The truth hurts but in the end, it brings comfort.

Is ghana a cursed nation?

?When God's anger comes upon a country, it may be due to one or more intolerable sins which often become a curse leading to the total destruction of an entire country. We saw howGodbrought destruction on Sodom and Gomorrah when they continuously practiced homosexuality. The Bible is filled with many examples of nations and individuals that werecursed.
?
Ghana is a resource-rich country. The country is blessed with gold, diamond, manganese, iron ore, oil and many other minerals and agricultural products. However, for decades Ghana has experienced a low growth rate despite these diverse rich resources, while some countries poor in resourcesarethriving. The most interesting aspect of this paradox is that it is not how much of resources a country has but how effectively it is used. Many countries have become prosperous due to their natural resources. This cannot be said about Ghana which continues to experience stagnation.
?
Sodom and Gommorrah as previously stated refused to listen toGod. Similarly Ghana has been caught in a very intricate network of deep and incomprehensible sin which is likely to have attracted the wrath ofGod. When such a curse comes upon Ghana, the country is unable to move forward despite?her rich resources.
?
The first sin that has brought a curse on Ghana, thus slowing her development is homosexuality.? The wrath ofGodis always on the country that encourages homosexuality. A gay newsletter from USA explained among other things that, during the'80s, there were less than a thousand homosexuals and lesbians in Ghana The gay activists in the USAarehappy thst the number has grown steadily.?What is frightening is that,?this group of lesbian, gay, bisexuals and transsexuals (LGBT) has come out openly in Ghana to insist on their rights despite the legal challenges they face. Such practicesareillegal in Ghana but they still thrive unabated. They insist that the country should enact laws that will allow same sex activity, with a view to recognizing same sexual relationships which will further stop discrimination and consequently allow them to adopt children.
Mr. Andrews Solomon, a gay and lesbian rights?advocate from the U.S.A, wrote in New York Times on February 9, 2013 and touched on the raging debate of homosexuality in Ghana, and revealed his close relationship with President John Mahama and how it all began. The information and Media minister, Mahama Ayariga, came out to flatly deny this allegation. ManyGhanaianswondered why the President?did not come out himself?with a rebuttal. The controversy began to loom large when Solomon exploited his closeness to the President and went ahead to demand legitimation for gays and lesbians in Ghana. Quite surprisingly, President John Mahama openly apologized to Andrew Solomon, a day after the latter described Mahama Ayariga's rebuttal as incorrect and misinformed. The last straw that broke the camel's back was when the President personally invited Solomon to the launch of his book,"My First Coup D'état."This was enough evidence to prove that the President is in bed with Solomon. No doubt he is lobbying President Mahama to promote gay interests in Africa. To confirm the suspicion ofGhanaians, Mahama appointed a gay right activist, Nana Oye,?in his government. This generated a general outcry?as many have linked Mahama to homosexuals since Nana Oye defends homosexual rights in Ghana. Will God's curse and punishment be lighter on Ghana? ?
Ritual murder is one of the problems thataregradually eating deep into the very fabric of the Ghanaian society. It has become one of the worrisome heads of Medusa, which keeps on repeating itself in all corners of the country. This has spiritual?implications and repercussions which slow down the growth of the country. ? ?
Ritual murders have become very rampant in Ghana. It is an act of killing an animal or human to propitiate a deity. The motive is to achieve a certain end, most often evil. Each year not less than seven hundred children, youths (male and female), and even adultsarekilled for rituals, according to a Daily Graphic report.. Very often the blood is drawn from these victims and certain vital partsareremoved including the sexual organs, breasts and tongues. The thirst for money and the eagerness to get rich quick compel people to commit heinous murders and pack the parts to Jujumen to receive'sikaduro'in return. About five years ago, rumour was rife that if one got the human parts of a hunchback to these jujumen, one became an instant millionaire. As a result persons with hunchback began to disappear one after the other. The Police acted swiftly and arrested the culprits during the early months of 2008.
The Bible, especially the Old Testament, is filled with numerous stories of animal and human
