Inviting you to Home Coming in Ghana
You are probably well aware of
efforts toward Homecoming celebrations in Accra this
coming August.
The goal is to bring everyone in the diaspora together
to Accra, to coincide with the Homowo celebrations.
The idea is to encourage us all to begin to reconnect,
by repatriation at least by frequent visits, with home.
The grand idea is that raising the level of connection,
as such. will create some good in the short and long
run.
The theme for this year's Homecoming celebrations is
UNITY / KAKE PAIM / EKOME FEIMOR. It will be
marked by 5 main events, under auspices of the umbrella
organization - Wemblor :-
1.) We encourage everyone to plan to be in Ada for the
Asafo Tufiam festival. If you or anyone you know has the
precise date, please post it on the Wemblor website -
Korlelagoon@wemblor.org
2.) Next, a day long symposium on business opportunities
in Ghana - on one of the following dates :-August 19th,
20th or 21st. (Exact date and venue to be posted on the
website.)
3.) Gala dance in Accra. this will be on Saturday the
23rd of August.
4.) Interdenominational church service at Dodowa. this
will be Sunday, August 31st.
5.) Finally, following the church service, there will be
a GaDangme summit, probably at the same venue as the
church service.
Organizing these events is still work in progress and we
will be most grateful if
you can identify one event or more that you can help us
organize well. Any one, two or all 5 events.
You may send your contribution of ideas / suggestions to
the Wemblor website through the e-address: Korlelagoon@wemblor.org
Before you even begin to send such contributions, please
spend a few seconds at the Wemblor website:-
WemBlor
GadangmeHomeComing. You will notice the broad and
practically empty outline, inviting your contribution of
ideas and listings to the site.
So, if you know of any businesses in the Gadangme areas
- b&b / hotel operators, taxi services, restaurant
owners and you can get their contact information we will
list them in the advertisement section
- free of charge this time.
If you or anyone you know have intention of organizing
anything for the Homecoming e.g. family reunion,
townhall meetings, a beach party, jama precession, ect.
we will post the date and time and venue on the Wemblor
website
for you.
Also, as you can very well imagine, organizing these
events require time, effort and money. God being so good
we have lots of volunteers who are doing a marvelous
job, often, using their own resources in addition to
their contributions of time and effort.
Anything else you, personally or on behalf of a group,
you wish to contributes toward the success of Homecoming
- 2014 will be appreciated and well noted. Just send it
to Korlelagoon@wemblor.org
Your monetary contributions will be greatly appreciated.

Bonuses – Kevin Boateng's take
CitiFM, July 1, Ghanadot -
“No. That (appearance payment) has become part of it and
it’s nearly normal. That was the smallest problem. But
everything kept stacking up over the whole month. It was
catastrophic. The practice conditions, sleeping conditions,
everything. I just wonder where all the money goes.”...“The GFA
makes so much money from sponsors, through FIFA. And it’s
certainly not spent on hotels, flights, the squad and the
preparations. ”......More

FIRM REBUTTAL TO SNEAKY ARTICLE
Commentary, July 01, Ghanadot - Currently, it has become
commonplace (especially in Ghana) for all kinds of people to say
all kinds of things and behave in any kind of manner....all with
impunity and a smug arrogance. Sadly, the internet lends itself
to sneak attacks that might go undiscovered for
months.....Perhaps, we all should share some of the blame for
this ridiculous state of affairs; for we have been probably too
tolerant and possibly too discerning in the face of blatant
mediocrity.. .......More
