This site forum is SO hard to use! I can't even find a place to start a new forum post for Ghana. Tried to find the main age for the Ghana forum and all I can find is the Ghana information page! That's why I'm posting this rant here! I probably won't even come here anymore. Too much Captcha verifications too!!!
