Ansumaa, good morning to everyone. my name is xeynab and I'm excited to be your curator for today # curatewa

Feel free to ask questions about the city and hopefully I will be able to give you an answer #curateWa

I moved to wa about 4 months ago and I work in the theatre of the Wa Regional Hospital #curateWa

It's a cold Harmattan morning and I'm at work tho I'd rather be tucked in bed. Hehehe #curateWa

It's time for breakfast and I'm having koko with koose. Y'all are invited #curateWa

Did you know that two of our finest musicians; samini and wiyaala hail from the youngest region in the country? #curateWa

We carry out various surgeries at the theatre and I work with a bunch of fun colleagues #curateWa

Wa is a relatively quiet place with no "traffic issues" and clean streets. I'm growing to love it #curateWa

According to an article on Wikipedia, Wa is the 14th most populous settlement in Ghana. #facts only #curateWa

Wa is not inhabited by Waalas only and there's a peaceful ethnic and religious co-existence #curateWa

It's time for lunch and I'm having roasted Plantain with groundnuts #curateWa

Curate Wa

Experiencing the Upper West Region of Ghana through individual stories

Wa


Through #CurateWa you will have an experience of the everyday lives of people living or spending time in the Upper West Region of Ghana.We are hoping to break the stereotypes you may have about the region with one story at a time. You also get the chance to ask the curator questions about wherever their location may be in the Upper West Region, the culture, the food, etc.
