The sudden change of the welcome signage at Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park has sparked major questions. The Ghana Tourism Authority denies approving the replacement of the traditional greetings "Woezoe" and "Akwaba" with the Ga word "Oobakɛ." Yet, no clear answers are coming from the park’s director or the Ministry of Tourism, leaving the public wondering who authorized this move.

This controversy highlights the ongoing cultural debate about representation in Ghana's capital. While the Ga community pushes to have their language recognized in national symbols, others warn against abrupt changes to well-known cultural icons. The discussion brings to light how language, culture, and identity evolve and intersect in a diverse society.
