Currulao is the main traditional genre of Abibifoɔ music out of the Southern Pacific Coast of 'colombia' and Northern Pacific Coast of 'ecuador'. This group is specifically from Timbiqui, Cauca, a Pacific Coastal town in the biogeographic Choco region. Timbiqui is also the name of the river where the community of Timbiqui is located. This song is about singing to the river asking for a safe passage, to let them go up the river, don't drown us (no me vayas a hogar), don't wet us (no me vayas a mojar), let me go up (dejame subi'). This is a continuation of evidence of our Kmtyu worldview regardless of location and colonial language. Reverence and respect for nature, the oceans, the rivers, and the source of life, water. This can be seen as a libation song for traveling up the Timbiqui river safely. The main instrument is the marimba, made from the palm trees in the Choco rainforest, and said to be a reconstructed descendant of the balafon made by Abibifoɔ in a new context. We carried Abibiman with us!

Ghana just made $3 billion in only four months—without discovering a single new gold mine. So how did they pull it off? Here's a hint: Captain Ibrahim Traoré had something to do with it. But what’s the real story behind this unexpected windfall? Let’s dive in.
Sitting firmly in Africa's Golden Triangle with South Africa and Sudan, it was a top-tier producer. But in spite of this natural wealth, the nation hardly ever benefited from its hidden gems. Year after year, billions of dollars' worth of gold left Ghana, but only remnants returned to the country's economy.
Lack of ownership was the issue, not a shortage of gold. With everything but no control, this has been the silent tragedy of Ghana's mining industry. Foreign multinational corporations with headquarters in Canada, the UK, South Africa, and Australia were primarily in charge of running the nation's gold mines.
Under private contracts, these businesses extracted the gold, processed it abroad, and then sold it to customers throughout the world. The role of Ghana? Take a little cut, supply the dirt, and avoid the boardrooms where the real money is earned. The gold wasn't the only thing that remained.
It leaves behind data, pricing control, and profit transparency. Numerous mining companies underreported their profits, took use of legal loopholes, or just set up their operations in ways that allowed for tax evasion. The riches had already vanished abroad, concealed in offshore accounts and business spreadsheets, by the time government officials became involved.
Ghanaians pondered for years how we could have so many resources and yet face unemployment, debt, and a weak currency. So far, the response has been silence. Silence thereafter became the norm. Early in 2025, however, numbers—rather than a protest or a politician—broke that stillness.
Silent, emotionless figures. Ghana's gold earnings soared to $2.7 billion between January and April. That is more than three times what it made during the same time frame only two years prior.
Furthermore, in just four months, the quantity of gold exported virtually doubled, rising from about 7,500 kilograms in early 2023 to over 30,000 kilograms. These were neither estimations or optimistic forecasts. These were actual transactions that were documented in Ghana's central bank's books and monitored by the country's customs department.
Naturally, people wanted to know where all of this originated. Was there a fresh gold deposit discovered by Ghana? Did the output of mining suddenly increase overnight? The response was much more significant and fascinating. There was always gold. Ghana simply stopped allowing it to disappear.
It was not the mines that changed. Who was in charge of the exits changed. Ghana wasn't allowing private corporations to control what was left on the ground or where it went for the first time.
Now a gatekeeper was present. A fresh idea that wasn't from Accra was standing outside that fence. It originated in Ouagadougou, a nearby capital.
The Ghanaian government had not simply happened onto a fortunate quarter, you see. They were no longer content to be a passive participant in the mining industry after studying something and observing someone. Motivated by fresh leadership on the continent, they had taken a very conscious decision.
However, we must examine the impact that led to that change in order to comprehend how a silent policy decision generated billions of dollars in unexpected revenue. Not even the African Union, not the International Monetary Fund, and not a think tank. It came from Captain Ibrahim Traoré, a man in a green beret, a soldier rather than a scholar, a leader who had seized a nation that was in disarray and dared to defy the laws of international economics.
The new model was not created in Ghana. But they didn't hesitate when they saw it. They modified it.
