Modern Ghanaians are cultivating a culture of being ugly & insulting to the things that we grew up on. They may not have been perfect but they were a really important stop gap at the time.

Last year you guys tried to slander the Azonto dance from Fuse’s video. Today Peggy Oppong.
Books by Irene Elizabeth Baitie,Lawrence Darmani ,Peggy Oppong and Samelia Bawuah are a core part of childhood memories for most of us that attended public high schools. And for me , they instilled in me a reading habit. Bless them https://t.co/LSrl57wyiW

Her books were the height of mediocrity from grammar to vocabulary to lackluster creativity. The storyline was always so painfully predictable you could skim it in 4 hours and get away with an easy A from an essay. So incredibly dull https://t.co/dkRxCyr2O2

Peggy Oppong. Say what you want but she raised a Ghanaian generation that loved reading . I’ll always thank God for her life. https://t.co/hTCwY9U9OH
