Welcome home, a distinguished son of Ghana......The land of gold!!!


The immediate past UN Secretary General Kofi Annan would be returning home after years of distinguished service at the United Nations. He sairved as the chief civil servant/diplomat of the world.
For me he served the whole of mankind, but as a Ghanaian, he represented national pride for us. He represented a major free PR image for Ghana in the last decade .

Just as Dr. Kwame Nkrumah became an African icon in the immediate post independence era of the 50s and 60s, Kofi Annan in the closing years of the last century and the beginning of this new century also assumed an equally visible and honourable image for Africa.

As he returns home tomorrow, it is with pride that we welcome him and hope that we will accord him the honour and dignity he deserves.


It is at this point that I humbly request of every Ghanaian to accord our own true son the peace of mind he needs at this time off international diplomacy to rest.
Putting him in a political cloak in my view will be dangerous.



The political temperature in Ghana is very umpredictable and could be unfriendly at most times. I hope Mr. Anna will stick to what he plans to do and not be pushed into taking any political posts at this time of his life.
Welcome Home Sir and all the best.
