The search for fresh fish

Accra is coastal but fresh fish is hard to find. Unlike other coastal towns there are no large fish markets around. I need to get to the bottom of this. My search for fresh fish took me to a market behind a castle. The squalor was heart rending. I came back disturbed. The music, the art, and the manners of the people camouflage the material discomforts. The initial awareness of problems dims as time goes by. The trip to find fish brought me back to reality again. No people should be treated thus. The government must act and clean up the drainage system at once. Clean surroundings
brings in prosperity along with it.
