is visiting with his Uncle Kwame. His Uncle has just finished
preparing fufu and palm-nut soup with smoked herring, kako, cow
foot, wole and salted beef. It is not a secret that Uncle Kwame

This day, Kojo is quite upset with him because he gave him just
a piece of the meal. No sooner had Uncle finished eating than he
started complaining, ”I have chest pain , I have chest pain.” To
