Its time that I write this, I’m no genuis myself, however living in 2 African countries I’ve had plenty of conversations on education. In Ghana I had several, it was one of the reasons why I think it is so difficult living in Ghana.
Basic conversation with the average Ghanaian is diffiult, in a Ghana Expat group a person posted that they missed complete sentences and deep meaningful connections. This one comment alone gained over 50 likes, most recently it was in the Ghana news that the education in the country was ranked 137th out of 167 countries.
This was an “AHH-HAA” moment, the English meanings of words are changed by the majority of Ghanaians. I asked several people why they all seemed to argue when having almost every conversation. I would sit on my road and watch them almost come to blows.
This happened almost every where I went, conversation skills are surely lacking for many in the country and most people don’t even understand one another.
