I think one reason they might have chose Geneva is because of international media attention. The international media (no matter how much I hate them, we need them) don\u2019t like to report about positive things happening in Africa. Actually the media don\u2019t like to report on positive things happening anywhere. Only difference is, if a high school kid shoots a school in the US, the headline is, \u201cHigh School Shooting in Virginia, 17 killed\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>High school kids in Africa don\u2019t kill people because they were teased. Should soldiers shoot 7 people in Mogadishu, the headline will be, \u201cViolent Shooting in Africa, 7 killed, Several Other Feared Dead.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Having the summit in Geneva will make the international media feel more comfortable talking about it. May be they are trying to pull a Drake. Drake hardly talked about Canada in his first 3 albums.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>He shouted out Houston (where he met Lil Wayne) and named songs after American cities till he got their attention. Now Drake talks about Canada like the whole world lives in Canada.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>His new album, he talked about Niagara Falls and Lake Ontario the way you talk about something people already know. Nobody knows Lake Ontario.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>He is making Canada cool because he sold his soul to the US to get their ear.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Now he is selling Canada to them (more on Drake later). Sometimes you have to kiss the frog to get the prince. I want to believe that\u2019s what they are doing.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Unfortunately, the whole summit will be covered in a 60-seconds report so is it worth it? I don\u2019t know. The against is, the summit is about making money in Africa. How about start with keeping money in Africa like Azure (whose opinion 98% of the time I don\u2019t care about. I don\u2019t care about the opinion of journalists who started life as pournalists and are only talkers and writers because Kanye said, \u201cIf you are doing and not just talking, you will know how hard it is to actually do\u201d) said.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Nana Kwame\u2019s response to Azure is very senseless and out of place. First of all, people have their wedding where they stay, not where they come from. So the Africa CEOs, using the wedding logic, should have kept the summit where their businesses stay.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Azure stays in Accra, Aburi is closer to Accra than his hometown. Number 2, husbands usually don\u2019t decided the wedding location and stuff like that. The bride does (and in Ghana, the family, and church, since Azure is a Christian, decides on that).<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The whole wedding in hometown thing, who does that? Of course, unless you are from Ada. Even me, I won\u2019t fore my wife to get married in Ada but getting married in Ada is not her dream, she won\u2019t be my bride in the first place. Aburi is where you settle on when you can\u2019t have Ada. #CokeInTheFlagstaff\u201c<\/em><\/p>\n<p>credit:<a href=\"http:\/\/ghanacelebrities.com\/\">ghanacelebrities.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Manasseh Azure Awuni has been brutally trolled by Ghanaians online after he wrote a \u2018project work\u2019 style response to a Ghanaian who brilliantly trolled him <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aptnewsghana.com\/index.php\/2017\/03\/24\/someone-finally-jumps-manassehs-defence-nana-kwame\/\" title=\"Someone Finally Jumps To Manasseh\u2019s Defence Against Nana Kwame&#8230;\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":767,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-765","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-entertainment"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.6 -
