OMG, if this boy had not been discovered by whoever, he'd have been somewhere there in Ashaiman to waste. Now he's hot and some journalists are fighting over who interviewed him first. Politicians are hovering around him like flies. From the president to his vice all the way down. NDC, NPP and all the "kominiini's" everybody wants to associate with him in a way to prove they care. To the politicians I say, it's nice to acknowledge citizens of the nation when they do things to reflect on Ghana at world stage. But like my late mum used to tell me "No squat, no poop" a slang that reflects how they took care of #2 in the days of old. Anybody that stands and poops is sick and that's what our leaders are doing. Come tomorrow and Ghana will be 59 years old yet, some find it hard to have good drinking water. Some students school under fig trees, they had to carry kitchen stools to school in order to sit, they put their books behind each other's back in order to write. It goes on and on just like the catch phrase of the famous key soap advert. Long lasting key soap "the tradition goes on". When Abraham gave his acceptance speech the other day at the awards night we all heard what he said. He struggled in pronunciation of words and I can bet lot people at the awards night did not understand what he said. But it's no fault of his, because the way he spoke is no different from what his teacher thought him. A techer stands before class and pronounces the letter ("e" as yee and "w" as dobiw) and our leaders don't know? Invest in quality education for the nation and it'll go in a long way to help the nation. How would you say this? www.free flight from France. Haaaa, I pray God non that some should dare not try because, that'll be "dobiw, dobiw, dobiw dot flee frit flom flance". Case dismissed.

You make a good point about how every Tom, dick and Harry is tripping in acknowledging or associating with the boy – it’s so shameful... typical Third World inferior complex! He is a private individual who accomplished something (fortuitously or not), and as Ghanaians we are proud of him – that should be it.
However, you miss the mark blaming the system for not being responsible for his development or discovery. Yes we expect much more progress and development than we have, and our education system can do with a lot of improvement.... that’s why they call us the Third World. But wait, even in the First World, not every child is a Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Porter) or MacCauley Culkin (Home Alone), and children/students do drop out of school, e.g. Bill Gates who was only lucky to have found a more or less natural way out as Abraham probably has. As for the way Abraham spoke, call it a Ghanaian thing rather than the plight of education in Ghana.

Fro your information, Bill gates scored 1590 of 1600 during the Scholastic Aptitude Test tha qualified him for Harvard.
He voluntarily dropped out of Harvard to concentrae on the company he had found even before he was admitted at Harvard. At the time he freely dropped out of Harvard, he was a Millionaire having rebranded the PC-DOS he had written for IBM to MS-DOS and reselling the product.
The term drop-out would normlly be used for students who get kicked out because of poor academic performance. This was not the case with Bill Gates.

The the mega churches can't even practice what Jesus taught us as his followers to give back to the needy in society.
Thy have millions stacked in banks and continue to come for more, but no moral conviction to invest in humany, as service to man is a service to God.
