Accra Ghana by Road



It all began on Friday. I made up my mind late and then hurried over to ABC to get my ticket to the Gold Coast by 12am. I actually felt lucky when I was offered a choice of two seats until I was actually told where the seats were!!
"Madam", said the man politely, "The two seats are located infront of the toilet and beside the toilet. Which would you prefer?"
I just stood there dumbfounded.It was bad enough that I was going to seat for hours in a bus as I hated road travel and was proudly being a cheap skate by taking the bus and now I have to sit by the toilet??Well I had no choice, so I chose the seat in front of the toilet , as I felt it would be better to have the toilet behind me than beside me.

I ended up seating beside the toilet but thank goodness it was by the window as if otherwise, I would have had to be an emergency toilet attendant through out the journey as most of the passangers didnt seem to understand the working of the door...It was very comforting when a Pastor commited our journey into the hands of the Almighty with prayers and songs of worship but worse when the bus attendant announced that the toilets were only for urinating on a 12hr journey with just a few stops!!(I'LL GIST U MORE SOON...)
