 The positive correlation between education and development has been amply validated the worldwide. It has been established that illiteracy and poverty are bedfellows. In Ghana, this is clearly manifested in the three northern regions where illiteracy is positively correlated with high poverty levels. Education is therefore the key to development. In order for us to consciously reduce poverty, there is the need to improve the educational system Which is why the AFRICAN YOUTH WRITERS ORGANIZATION in Tamale came up with the idea of teaching and training young children to participate and increase their interest in reading and writing.

Respect Northerners & Muslims

Image
I really get very pissed off anytime a group of northerners or Muslims do something which is neither good nor bad, then useless, senseless and idiots who call themselves humans make hurtful comments on social media. Some of you don't even know northern region, you only see pictures of it on TV or social media.  Before you look down upon us take a trip to the three northern regions and take a close look at us very well.is just that the media concentrate on the ugly side and ignore the good side, which I know one day, just one day you will see the good side of the north. If I may ask is this the first time ECG has been attacked by a group of people? Is northern Region only the place ECG offices have been attacked..  So why all these hurtful comments such as" these so called Muslims" "they call themselves righteous people " etc. I personally do not agree with the attack a peaceful demonstration would have been better, but when anger raises and there i...
