Inmates
of the Ho Central prisons may have their freedom curtailed, but not their
insatiable love for Wakye, Yes! wakye; that indigenous delicacy rich in protein.
The
inmates who unambiguously declared their unflinching love for the local food, prepared
by boiling beans and rice together with other ingredients, shouted “We want
Wakye”, when asked by the chief Prison warden about the food they will like to eat
as their next meal, at recent durbar held in the prison yard.
Just
when the chief Warden, Deputy Director of Prisons, Victor Agbelengor assured
them of their wish, the entire prison resounded with a thunderous applause and
chants to signify their excitement and gratitude.
One of
the inmates, sum up their insatiable love and crave for Waakye, to our reporter
at the durbar saying “Wakye is our food and we don’t care eating it every day..
It’s very delicious.”
So whenever
you consider donating food items to the Ho prisons, make wakye ingredients
number one item on your list or better still serve them wakye with its accompaniments
and you will leave a lasting memory in their minds.
