FEAR IS A MONSTER




It has been months since this epidemy occurred. It has killed hundreds of thousand if not millions already. More than what the media can report. I’m mumu and this is my story from the Maritime Academy in Ghana.  On the first of April, most shops and markets where shutdown by force by the government for security purposes. They practice the world common motto against this C-19 virus which are; Wash your hands frequently with soap and use clear wiper, use hand sanitizer as a disinfectant, stay in-doors, stay away from crowed, limit activities that might led you to be seen suspected and a broker of the new rules in place. This policy spread like wild fire from Greater Accra to other regions and nations; Fear is a monster.

More ideas and speculations have been brought on the that rather suggest the origin of this virus which broke out in China than the solution to solve the problems it causes. I would not like to say more about them for the are just trying to get something for writers to write and make money.
On a scale from 1-1000000 people not up to 50% will be able to afford 3 meals a day in day out on a normal condition. Now about 27.7% can keep up with this life standard. “Food is vanity”, it’s true but only in some scenarios in life.




Have you ever heard of the saying, “What’s free is never free”? What Nigerians call “Ibo” or white man as usual came to Africa again to give us vaccines against C-19 as if the new it wasn’t Air born. I am trying to make a point here. If they were so sure about the vaccines why did the offer it to us as such a low prize that even a primary school kid could afford. Whereas drugs for malaria, HIV and more seem to be increasing periodically with the price. I’m tired of hearing my friend, neighbor, fellow country men and women fall to the idol pawn of someone’s ideas and impression of us as the shifter the lions and execute. Africans we were powerful, born from royalty, dictators to self-action and religion, brothers and sisters if not my blood then by encounters of our ancestors.

We embraced Christianity and other religions. Not that, I care but why did we leave what we were to follow what we can’t be. If my brother is a rich man due to his coco company does it mean that, I will be a rich man through the same minds as him of the is something waiting for me out there? The answer is no. If you want something learn it, make it and take it. So, you can add to yours and grow not just copy and paste. The is only one road and that’s the high way and we are racing to infinity. The past has past, the present is the moment and the future not so far from home.

The Sole Lookout Man

LOOKOUT-MAN CNIC LIMBE Just like the police who are in charge of the safety of their citizen in society against all criminal circumstances that prevail or may prevail. At Sea, we have the Lookout man. He is a member of the bridge team (consisting of; OOW, AB,  boatswain , deck cadet, officers, and the master). With these awesome team, the vessel can navigate safely through the random occuring obstacle at sea. There are different duties assigned to the lookout man based on the time of day, and weather conditions.  Either way, he/her main duty is to ensure the safe navigation of the vessel at Sea.

An attempt to a port with no documents

Most people in this generation think that without the right documents or requirements they can't have access to what they want. Even though they might find something more important than what they are looking for on the way. Regardless, it's true but to an extent that can only be determined by the situation and character of the person at stake. “ Not long ago, I decided to go visit the port of Ghana for an internship program to cover the practical side of my course as a to-be Seafarer. I mailed the port for the recommendations but I wasn't emailed back. So I asked my seniors for advice which they gave me happily. I required just a school note which contained my name, course, level of education, and the signature of the vice-chancellor. I made a copy and deposited it at the post office.     The next day, my elder brother sent me a message to come and collect a package which he deposited at the port for me. On my way to the port, they were so many roads to ...
