Beads are a fundamental part of Ghanaian heritage. Not only they testament to the vibrance of Ghanaian creativity, but they also play a significant role in the country's history, rituals and culture.

Koforidua is a town in Eastern Region of Ghana located approximately 80 km from the capital and main commercial centre, Accra. The beads market is believed to have been in existence for over 200 years, previous locations having included open spaces. The current site is a dedicated market facility provided by the local government authority and is a weekly beads and crafts market which happens on a Thursday next to the Koforidua Jubilee Park. Locals are usually happy to give a visitor directions.

The space is filled with a myriad of units varying from shops to open-sided stalls (which look like temporary structures to the visitor) to table top displays. With facilities like these it goes without saying that on a rainy Thursday the market is pretty quiet.

Goods on offer include:

Beads
Beaded jewellery
Jewellery findings
Glass beads raw materials such as broken louvre blades and glass bottles
metal bars,
yarn
wood
leather and cowry bags
brass products and artefacts,
wood carvings and,
And anything else which might interest customers. There will, for example be small food and drinks sellers.

A very heavy day filled with reconnecting to my Ancestors. We visited the Assin Manso (site of "The Last Bath" as well as 'The First Bath Of Return'), and Elmina dungeon.

We rounded out the evening strong with a special attendance of Olusegun Obasanjo, the once president of Nigeria. I couldn't capture it all on film, of course, but he has a lot of motivational words for us all that night.

Brief meeting with the CIKOD (Centre for Indigenous Knowledge and Organizational Development) group at their Oyarifa office.

Hoping to grab an opportunity with them to be in Ghana on (paid) sabbatical for 4 months in 2024. This would allow me to get a good amount of my repatriation goals settled.
