    Thanks for this video Akua. It brings back memories. I grew up at North Suntreso next to Bantama and very familiar with this route since I attended school at St. Peter's on Roman hill.
    The Okomfo Anokye sword planted on the ground is behind the entrance and no one can uproot it. As a kid I tried once and failed.
    Kudos once again for this excellent video. You are doing one heck of a job Akua.

    It is very sad to see people sick and getting sick. If you are sick you can't even enjoy basic things in life Often times it might just be , knowing and understanding few basic tricks . 1) hygiene 2) blood pressure 3 ) glucose levels. Wash hands often for hygiene. If you have a high blood pressure avoid too much salt intake and take morenga tea every day. You can find morenga every where in the gardens of Africa. If you have low blood pressure use coffee instead of morenga and a bit more salt intake. If you have high glucose levels avoid sugars and if you have low glucose levels increase the intake of honey. It is just understanding these diseases and doing something about them. Have time for yourself and live longer. GOOD HEALTH TO ALL.
