My Oyiboland Wahala Continued

By Edmund Smith-Asante
On board a SAS flight to Brussels

I was somehow optimistic that my luggage would be found but the when was the matter.
Would it arrive when I was in Brussels or would I get it before enplaning for the EU-Africa Summit?  Only time and patience would tell.

Serious Wahala for Oyiboland


By Edmund Smith-Asante
I flew in a similar Turkish Boeing aircraft back home
It is 7:39 am European Time and I don't know how to describe how I am feeling right now.
Should I be angry or happy?
Well I guess a mixture of the two, since I am finally leaving for home after about a week's sojourn in Europe on official duty. As a matter of fact I am writing this piece tens of thousands of miles above sea level, on board Turkish flight TK 1942 from Brussels to Istanbul, where I would connect a flight to Accra.
