A friend of mine returned from a recent trip to Ghana and announced to me that, “in Ghana nothing works”. She continued, “officials are so laid-back you never find anyone trying to do his or her job with any attachment of seriousness”. That was a serious indictment and she had cause to be angry. Her problems began with the officials at the Ghana Embassy in Copenhagen, Denmark where she had paid for a multiple entry visa for three months only to be issued with just a single one for one month. Since the embassy insists in doing transactions only cash, it wouldn’t have been difficult to manipulate the price difference between a one-month visa and a three-month multiple visa. She had to make the changes in Ghana and that’s where her nightmare with Ghanaian bureaucracy began. She was still asked to pay for something she had already in Denmark.
