Show Notes
Richmond is a Ghanaian who wears many hats wears many hats:
- Commissioner, DC Mayor's Office on Africa Affairs
- Vice Chair, Agric Sector- Pan African Diaspora Youth Association
- Lecturer @ Howard University
- Member, African Union Mission
We talk Ghana + Africa on this episode. Richmond explains how people are named in Ghana, the difference between Tribes, Kingdoms and Nations, why Ghanaian funerals are mostly celebratory and what the Elmina Castle represents. We also talk about the Africa Continental Free Trade Agreement and why the African Diaspora need to join forces with people on the continent.
Of course the conversation wasn't complete without deliberating who has the better Jollof (Nigeria or Ghana). You might want to listen to this one on (x-1.5) reduced speed cos we were spitting hot fire. Lol
