Happy Anniversary Yewura Kay Cudjoe

Happy Anniversary Yewura Kay Cudjoe

Yewura Kay. It was my dear brilliant and super tolerant friend Nana Fremaa Busia, who excitedly brought your stellar writing to my attention.

The piece Nana Fremaa forwarded was refreshing, mesmerising and astounding. I was immediately hooked, lol.

You have consistently entertained and challenged us with your marvellous pieces. For that we who are your diehard fans who used to enjoy and miss the thought-provoking writing of the P. V. Ansahs, the Kabral Blay-Amihere and Elizabeth Ohenes, are truly grateful to you wai, Massa.

Whatever you do, develop a thick skin, for the envy-brigades will find ways to trip you up and find ways to sully your hard-earned reputation.

You have our back, naturally, we the smitten, that is, lol.

Hopefully association from afar, via fandom with us - in spirit - won't raise the ire of the most powerful individuals amongst our mostly self-seeking, hard-of-hearing and criticism-averse ruling elites. Ignore them. I for one happen to be a stooped, 74-year-old fogey with more years behind him than he has in front of him, lol.

Afihyiapa oooo, Yewura Kay. Wu tiri nkwa wai. Keep up the good work and more elbow grease to you. Massa wu yɛ bue paaapa!
