Happy New Year 2024 to all community-spirited neighbourhoods across Ghana

Feature Article Happy New Year 2024 to all community-spirited neighbourhoods across Ghana
SAT, 30 DEC 2023

Dear critical-reader, one wishes a Happy New Year 2024, to all community-spirited neighbourhoods, across the entire sovereign landmass of our Republic, on the cusp of presidential and parliamentary elections year 2024.

Which brings one to the very interesting subject of what a huge difference, kind and generous-hearted community members make, when emergencies, such as burst waterpipes that partially flood neighbourhood roads, occur, lol.

We had one such emergency, yesterday, in our idyllic Central Regional rural community housing estate, at Gomoa Buduburam, as it happens, dear critical-reader.

Compassionate and generous-hearted Mr. and Mrs. Obeng, as well as Mr. Otoo and his wife and offspring, and our area's plumber, Mr. Bernard Essel (aka Kweku Plumber), we salute you, wai! Wonderful people.

Naturally, at such times, the kindness of compassionate and generous-hearted neighbours, can be contrasted sharply with the complainers-in-chief-types, who can be relied upon to seize the sudden opportunity to stir things up, with their sourpuss-negativity, by targeting neighbours whom they have grudges against, lol. Such is life.

Yet still, as we enter the new year, 2024, one prays for all neighbourhood complainers-in-chief-types, and hopes that by this time next year, they may have finally seen the light, and ceased holding grudges against others, lol. Life is too short to waste energy bearing grudges, oooo, lol. Happy New Year 2024, to all community-spirited neighbourhoods across our beautiful and bountiful homeland Ghana!
