NORTHERNER QUESTIONS DVLA... ARE WE NOT GHANAIANS?

Image
Mumuni Yunus Chelseaholic The DVLA says drivers can now take their driving tests in Ga, Twi, Ewe, Hausa and English. However, a quick thought will let you know no single Northern dialect has been included. Are we not Ghanaians? Does it mean our Gonja, Dagomba, Frafra, Waala, Mamprusi, Kasina, Bimoba, Kokomba, Nanumba and Sisaala brothers and sisters who do not speak nor write in English cannot drive? Mind you Hausa is not a language of the Northern people, I live in Tamale but I cannot speak Hausa, ma ny more are my likes. This is gross discrimination and must be checked well before being implemented. ‪#‎ JustanObservation‬

Baba two grown ass men decided to beat each other in public, people stayed awake all night watching these two grown ass men hit each other in the face. And as you know, the dollar has been running 267 miles per hour, so I decided to sit back home and watch TV for the rest of my life, but ECG said no, every day is du m and sor. Luckily Yvonne Nelson led a ‪#‎ dumsormuststop‬ vigil with other Gh celebrities. Just when everything was coming back to normal, Tigo suggested we should meet Niaja and dance to ADOBI, unfortunately the New Guy told the media not to come his way, so I took some time off to play, then I was told of an acid attack, baba I nearly refused to eat, but as you know the way to a boy’s heart is the stomach, so I went to circle to get some food, the food I could afford was plantain chips and sobolo.  The people there w...
