Huzeima Meets Ayisha – ” A 14yr Old Head Porter “

By -
Somewhere in Kumasi I met this beautiful girl called Ayisha from Yendi working as a head porter. She could not tell me her age for she dropped out of school when she was in class two to go and live with her aunt. She looked like a 14 year old and below. Through our conversations she was in Kumasi for money to buy kitchen utensils for marriage. I was able to convince her to think about learning a vocational skill and to use the utensils money to buy a sewing machine to learn how to design and make clothes.
I am sad I could not give her enough money to buy a sewing machine. But my question is what are we doing as a country to ensure Ayisha and her friends stay in school to enjoy the free education. So I think all stakeholders in education should think of how to ensure every child in Ghana irrespective of their location and background goes to school to at least High School level. Parents have to play a major role to ensure that every Ghanaian child goes to school. I still stand for girl child education and women empowerment but the development of Ghana requires education and empowerment of every Ghanaian irrespective of the gender.

These ulcerations left the soldiers unfit to fight and necessitated lengthy hospital confinement, often requiring their removal to more temperate climates. Every possible form of treatment as well as chemical therapy was exhausted without positive results. It was then suggested that these leg ulcers could possibly be connected with the soldiers’ eating habits, as the natives showed no signs of this disease. Rations to the soldiers were then based on a diet free from pork, much like that eaten by the Islamic population. This resulted in the immediate relief of the leg ulcer syndrome. During the lean years of the war and especially those after the war, the health of the population was, practically speaking, good. Few people could
