ABOUT MY COUNTRY GHANA
Ghana is located in West Africa in the African continent. And it's shares board to the North Borkina Faso, to the West Côte d'Ivoire, to the East Togo and to the South the sea. Though our official language is English but all the countries around us speak French. Ghana is also known as the gate way to Africa because of our uniqueness as a country. Ghana was the first country in West Africa to gain independence in 1957 and we were ruled by the British. Our country and Nigeria is the only country that speaks English. We are about 35 million people in my country. And we have devided the country to 16 regions. Our capital town is Accra and it can be located at Greater Accra Region.And also we have about 38 different tribes in my country now. There more than thirty ethnic groups and tribs in Ghana but we all leave together peacefully.The things that made up our country is our flag, the name of my country, currency, coth of arm, the national anthem and others. Our currency is called cedis and it is the fourth most valuable currency in Africa. In 2019 Ghana became the fastest growing economy in the world. The next paragraphs I will show the reason why I love my country and things I love to see in my country.
GHANA AND THEIR NEIGHBORING COUNTRIES
Three Things I Love About My Country
I have said many things about my country in the about my country Ghana. Many things that makes my country different from other countries. They includes our flag, the anthem, and the rest. But these three things makes me love my country, the culture, the natural resources and tourism and the attitude of the Citizens towards foreigners. And my country also has sell his name in terms of sports. For the past twenty years our country has sell in in soccer and other sports.

My country has a rich African, such as their festival, there are many festival in my country and it's always observe by particular tribes in my country. Some of the festivals includes Homowo, Adei Kesie, Aloo and the rest. And some of our clothes that we were makes us different. The clothes includes Kente of the Asante's, Fuugu of the Dagaare's. And we dance such as Adoa, palogo and etc. The culture of our country makes me love my country. Though we are one people with common destiny but since we have sixteen different regions in Ghana, we also have different festival they celebrate. The table below shows us the difference festival in different tribes in Ghana.

Last but not the least, our country is the first most peaceful country in West Africa and Second in Africa. The things that makes our country most peaceful is the citizens in the country love for strangers and our hospitality and the way they strangers it's makes our country lovable. And our security system is soo good and protecting it's citizens. Which others like to see my country Ghana.
Things I Love to See in My Country
In this world everything that have positive sometimes have some negative. I have said many good things about my country. But there are some of challenges as a nation. They include our poor educational system, poor leadership and corruption and poor lighting or energy systems.
Firstly, our major challenge is our leadership and corruption in our country. Though we have rich natural resources but since we don't have good leadership, it has become very difficult for us as a nation to utilize those resources. And greedy of some the leaders is killing the citizens. And I will like to see my country with good leadership and corruption free if possible. Secondary, every country needs education to build up and develop it. But in my country our major challenge is that we are still using old system of education and that is drawing us back. But the current government is doing everything possible to improve the nature of our education system. And I will like to see my country with modern education system.
These are students in class in my country
Last but the least, one of our problem as nation is our energy systems. About ten years ago, our country enter into something called low shedding it was popularly known my country us Dumsor. This where by power or electric energy is being shared among the various towns in the country. Though our country supplies our near by countries with hydro electric power but my country has to improve in energy system.Today as I am speaking now we still have problem in our energy system. And I will like to see good and stable energy system in my country.

Our culture surely gives us our identity and contributes massively to our way of life. I like the inclusion of sports, maps and lifestyle.
I think you should take a closer look at your images though. They need to be copyright free. I made a tutorial which I think would help you.

I love the good sentiment you have about our country Ghana. Would have loved to see you add our national pledge to remain us of the integrity we ought to uphold.
Truly, most leaders see themselves above the law which was created to address everyone equally. I think our main problem is not being able to enforce laws and regulations. Once that is sorted, justice will prevail and our leaders will make the right decisions.
