Crime here , killings there.

 Everything start from the home. Charity they say begins at home. Good and bad morals begins at home. This is because the home is the foundation of our everything. 

Education,  which is the acquisition of knowledge, skills , values and attitudes for the total make up of the individual  start from home. But the type of home education is referred to as informal education by educational scholars. 

Why the rise in crime and indiscipline in our country now? Not a day or hour passes without news of killings, murder, accident, thievery being announced in the media. Is becoming so scary living here in Ghana. 

What has actually become of us? Your guess is as good as mine. 

May be the general moral decay like, incessant crave for money, broken homes, influence of the new media, and general corruption. Just now there's news of the killing of a school proprietor. Sad ! 😭

See, our society has reached a stage where property confer rank , wealth becomes the only source of virtue, passion the sole bond of  union between husband and wife, falsehood the source of success in life, sex the only means of enjoyment and outer trappings are mistaken for inner religion. 

Can there be any doubt that our society is seeing or  manifesting these ugly destructive tendencies because our leaders hardly show any clean or better behavior for the youth to emulate? 

What about this shocking phenomenon of 'Sakawa,' 'sende na me nso nsende mawo' , black magic rituals for quick money and dirty money.

What is even interesting and mind-boggling is that these crime wave is increasing amidst high level penetration of churches and propagation of the word of Jesus Christ.

Has the home broken? What about the country?

Isn't it probably because money has become the evil object of worship in families, church, politics and so on? 

Has our religion also failed us? Which is which?

If the home or country is broken then our education or school system probably is broken as well. Just to painfully recall the insults rained on our President of Ghana during last year WASSCE examination by our candidates. 

I am at this juncture not doubting that everything probably is broken and needs urgent fixing otherwise we may witness worse situation than these.

In short. to fix the general crime wave and indiscipline, we need to fix leadership. Leadership is everything. When leadership is fixed our educational system will be fixed and thereby having the kind of country we wish for to live in.
