Does the above saying look familiar? Well this was the case for some of the guests that came to the people’s space at Hotel Africana. Prince Charles was touring the space and apparently for security reasons, those who came after the Prince’s entry were not allowed in.
This however did not go down well with some of the guests especially the ladies, who thought it did not make much sense. “Is the big man going to address chairs, why not let us in” said one lady.
Another lady wondered why people could not be let in even after thorough security checks. An Indian lady complained having come all the way from her country but couldn’t access the People’s space.
Trust people when they are fighting for their rights. After so much noise, the security guards had no alternative but to let the people in. With so much excitement, people rushed to see the Prince who was already winding up his tour.
Prince Charles is one of the many dignitaries that have visited the People’s space which was put in place for free access by the general public. As it comes to a close, people feel it’s been a worthwhile venture and they have high hopes that their issues will be considered.
We presented our short films at the people’s forum. We believe in using film as a tool for fostering understanding between the brotherhood of commonwealth nations and a deeper grasp of different cultures in this pot of diversity.
Thank you!for making first lady of Ghana and Principe participate with us in amass at christ the king.
