Quote by Manasseh Azure Awuni

“While some countries developed COVID-19 vaccines to fight the pandemic, many African countries slept…. When the vaccines were ready, African leaders climbed rooftops and cried to the world to have them for free, for they were poor and could not afford to buy vaccines. President Akufo-Addo, for instance, went to Germany on a luxury private jet to beg for free vaccines.”

“When the pandemic struck, Ghana, with a population of 31 million, had only 67 ventilators in its public hospitals. The number of ministers of state was more than twice the number of ventilators available to face the pandemic. Medical experts said ventilators were vital in treating the respiratory conditions occasioned by the virus. However, the nation bought less than 70 ventilators during the outbreak. That brings us to the next question. If the core fight against the pandemic did not receive the needed funding, then where did all the borrowed and domestic funds go? On what did Ghana spend so much that COVID-19 continues to feature as the main reason for the Akufo-Addo government's economic woes?”

“Die Sache mit den Außenseitern ist folgende: Die Sadeem-Geschwister sind bekannt dafür, immer und überall verlorene Seelen aufzuklauben und unter ihre Fittiche zu nehmen. Nuh, der ständig streunende Katzen oder verletzte Vögel nach Hause bringt. Abi und seine absolut skurrilen, über ganz Wien verteilten Bekanntschaften. Maya und ihre überbemutternde Fürsorge, Uzair, der mit seinen zwölf Jahren bereits das Herz seiner ganzen Schule erobert hat – wir haben in unserem Leben für jeden Platz, aber besonders für jene, die sonst nirgends einen Ort für sich finden.”
