Bro. Ibrahim, this is an excellent article that depicts the plight of kayayee. Unfortunately, I blame the educated Northern scholars who after obtaining free education in the North, decide to descend on Accra and forget entirely about their roots. Beginning from President Kwame Nkrumah, folks from the North have had free education, free this, free that. No one complained and no one is complaining. Nevertheless after their education every Northerner wants to live in Accra - why?????? Who is expected to travel to the North to help with the indigenes??? It can be counted on fingertips how many Northerners ever return to their roots. They all make their sojourn - no - infact - they make Accra their dwelling place for ever and ever, why??? Whose duty is it to help the ones that are up and coming? I am from the West, and I can assure you except as my Christian duty, I plan not to go and work or help any part of the North. I mean it is ridiculous. Look at this current government. Mahama has placed as heads of every agency a Northerner. Weren't they living in Accra prior to their appointment? Of course!!! Do they ever make it a point to go help the rest of their folks - well - I doubt it. Or even take for instance the case of kayayee. Why haven't all the Northern heads of agencies made it a priority to do something positive about their plight? Rather, FAT BEHIND Lordina travels to the North and builds a hostel for the Witch Camp!! My goodness - what backwardness!!! The place needs to be shut down - period - and Northerners need to be brought to the 22nd century that an old woman is not a witch solely by virtue of her married daughter being barren - and how come there aren't any men in the witch camp - nkuraasesem kwa. Ignorance and illiteracy are both diseases that can cripple a nation. The educated Northerners especially those who now enjoy Ghana by virtue of a Mahama led government should make it their paramount concern to educate the ones they left behind in the North. Accra cannot hold the kayaayee and their Northern politicians who are enjoying the booty that they now have in their possession. NO SITUATION IS PERMANENT - THIS TOO SHALL PASS!!!!!!!!!!!
