Hi, I'm Wofa Attafuah. I turned our childhood memories into a Ghanaian street football game: Four Corners ⚽🇬🇭.

Un capitaine ne se définit pas seulement par ce qu'il fait sur le terrain, mais par ce qu'il accepte de faire quand personne ne l'y oblige.
Aucune tâche n'est en dessous de lui. Si la star ou le capitaine s'en charge, personne ne peut se dire que c'est un truc pour les jeunes ou le staff.
Son autorité vient du respect et non du statut, ce qui la rend plus solide.
Et puis enfin ce geste c’est aussi une question de crédibilité : quand il exigera un effort ou une remise en question en match, il aura déjà montré qu'il s'applique les mêmes exigences au quotidien et ça changé énormément de chose.
Le brassard ne fait pas le leader. Dans une étude sur 398 joueurs et coaches, les attentes portaient surtout sur les qualités motivationnelles et sociales, alors que la sélection des capitaines repose souvent sur l'expérience ou le niveau technique. D'autres travaux montrent que la seule caractéristique sur laquelle les capitaines devancent les leaders informels, c'est l'ancienneté. Ce qui compte, c'est donc le comportement quotidien, pas le statut. C'est exactement ce que Raphinha montre avec ce geste.

Sometimes, people see you starting over and have no idea how much it took for you to get there.
I once owned a salon that I worked so hard to build. When my landlord started making things difficult for me, I decided to move to another shop at Spintex.
After a painful breakup, I wanted a way out of the pain, and the opportunity to travel out of the country for a job seemed like the fresh start I needed. I sold most of my salon equipment to fund the trip, even though my consultant advised me to keep them in case things didn’t work out.
Unfortunately, the job turned out to be a scam. Everything I had hoped for fell apart, and I had to find a way to survive and eventually return to Ghana.
Coming back wasn’t easy either. My former clients had moved on, and despite trying to reconnect with them, I struggled to rebuild what I had lost. I decided to upgrade my nail skills and try again.
When I returned abroad, hoping to find my feet, things still didn’t work out. I tried other business opportunities, including importation, but I was scammed again by a shipping agent. It took the intervention of the CID unit of the Ghana Police Service to help me retrieve part of my goods.
Today, after all the losses, disappointments, tears, and countless attempts to start over, I have finally secured a shop and made it beautiful enough to welcome clients again.
And guess what? I’m scared.
I’ve tried twice in Ghana and twice abroad. I’ve lost money, opportunities, clients, and parts of myself along the way. Now that I’m finally ready to reopen, I find myself crying and battling anxiety because I’m afraid of failing again.
But despite the fear, I still want to try.
I’m sharing this because sometimes, the people who look strong are fighting battles nobody knows about. Starting over isn’t easy, especially when you’ve been disappointed so many times.
Tomorrow, I’m choosing to try again. Not because I’m fearless, but because a part of me still believes things can work out.
Please say a prayer for me and my business. 🥹🙏🏽❤️
we’re trying again. One more time

A young man who struggled through university on his own, without anyone to support him or connections to rely on, has received his posting to AngloGold Ashanti.
Yesterday, he saw his posting (2nd batch). Today, he printed his documents and reported to AngloGold Ashanti, only to be told that his name was not on their list, despite it appearing on the official NSS posting. He was asked to send the document back to NSS, with “reposting” written on it. He is now on a bus back to Kumasi, completely devastated. Imagine the disappointment of a young man who has worked hard to get this far, only to face this situation before he has even had the chance to begin.
This young man has done his part and followed the process. He deserves a fair opportunity to begin his national service without unnecessary obstacles or any form of unfair treatment.
I don’t want to believe that, in this country, a young person must depend on a politician, a prominent chief or someone influential to enjoy equal opportunities as a citizen. Surely, young people who have worked hard to get to this stage deserve a fair chance, regardless of who they know or don’t know.
I am bringing this to the attention of the relevant authorities in the hope that someone will look into this matter and help resolve it fairly. Every young Ghanaian deserves a fair chance to succeed, whether or not they have someone influential to speak for them. .@nss_officialgh
