A lot of educative things have come up in\u00a0Ghana; a lot of brilliant\u00a0personalities have visited us here. So let us also project those positive things too about our country.\u00a0\u00a0There are a lot of things in the world; there is good and there is bad, some are true some are lies.\u00a0The one corner dance, I think we should ask all those happily dancing, the reason why they danced to the beat of the song.\u00a0\u00a0Is the person just excited,\u00a0or the person is using it to provoke or tease someone? What exactly is the reason why they engage in this \u2018one corner dance,?\u201d<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>stressed Darkwah<em><strong>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u201c<\/strong>If it is not foolishness then what is it? If people shake their buttocks and roll on the floor and share on social media and it is not foolishness, then what is it? It is either madness or\u00a0sickness.
