Today in history.

Today is the day in history when a black man of African descent became the undisputable leader of the United States of America winning by 338-156 electorial votes. God bless America, now we understand the American Dream and the reality that it can be in our lives.

Congratulations Barack Obama, Congratulations America!

Social Networking Pages GH

I was cruising through the world wide web when I came across these:

http://www.meetghana.com/ and http://www.ghanaflicks.com

and thought hmm, how interesting... Ghana seems to be producing quite a number of social networking and general information sharing sites these days, I didn't know there were that many people doing that sort of thing over here... It's funny that they go through all the hassle of making a social networking page and then don't even do any offline advertising.

Celebrate Africa

I had the pleasure of meeting a lovely lady from Nigeria called Chioma Ogwuegbu a couple of weekends ago.  She has embarked on a mission to travel around the continent by road in order to highlight Africas positive attributes.

Check out her site to find out more about it:

UPDATES: Fat Joe & Omarion Live in Accra with SWAY

The show has been postponed until tomorrow evening at 7:30pm at the conference centre. Exclusive Vista Entertainment sincerely apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Sean Kingston was unable to make it to Accra but Omarion will now be performing live at the conference centre in his place.

The Week Ahead

This is proving to be a very busy period for the I HEART ACCRA team.  Kobs is fully immersed in the literature of Pan-Africanism which is now in second gear over in Kokrobite.  The newest member of our team Felicia is busy getting ready for our Christmas activities and I am learning the art of putting Afro-chiq into recycling over at the Kokrobite institute, whilst setting my my mind on WAPi and preparing to Party it up with our guests from way yonder this weekend.

I'm really impressed with Accra.  I still remember what it was like here 4 short years ago when all people ever talked about was how bored they were and how there was nothing to do.  These days it's hard to take a breather from the amount of things that there are to do.

Tuesday night - Obama Party

Wednesday night - "PLAY"

Thursday night - Bless the mic Live

Friday night - V.V.I.P. party at African Regent

Saturday night - Drinks at Rhapsody's

Sunday night - Fat Joe, Omarion, Sway, Wanlov etc etc etc live in concert

See you all there!
