  I think it would be better for us to bring out nice series about our culture, that will help us a lot, so my dear Ghana wake-up from your dreams and face the reality

  Ghanaians over the years have adopted the culture of copying and for that matter, they copy blindly. If telenovelas do not have positive impacts on Ghana's society and the economy, then I will say TV stations are blindly helping Ghanaians in deepening the grounds of such unacceptable culture of copying. All this have contributed to the over alarming crime rate and immoral behaviours in our society today. People don't know what is acceptable and what is not acceptable. And because of this negative foreign cultures, more than 50% of Ghana's population are brain washed and should you point it out to them, they will boldly tell you that you are "colo", the world is a global village. Therefore in their delusion, we should accept the unacceptable. The TV programme directors and the sponsors of this Telenovelas are degree holders but what they are doing to the core of Ghana's society in a simple term is "give sweet poison to the people and make your money". But in facts that was not part of the education they had from the Universities. God save us. If we continue giving sweet poison to our generation of today, then we should be prepared for sweet pain tomorrow. God Bless Ghana.

  It is a disgrace how leaders and managers plan in Ghana. All we think about is money and not positive social and moral impact on the lives of Ghanaians. It saddens me when I hear my neighbour's family discussing Marie Cruz every evening together with their children. What are they learning? Promiscuity? Pre-marital sex? Incest? Greed? Wickedness? Pretense? Laziness?. We are corrupting our youth very early especially the girls. It is pathetic. God help us all. . .
