A Seat Of Many Colours
A love that refuses to die.
In the heart of northern Ghana, Abina and Kwame’s passion was the talk of Nchumuru. He even had a throne-like seat of many colours made just for her when she fell pregnant. Then war tore them apart. Kwame vanished into the conflict. Everyone said he was dead. Abina never believed it.
Each day, she raises her daughter alone, carrying both the ache of her husband’s absence and the admiration she still holds for him. She treasures the seat of many colours he gave her, a quiet relic of their love and a symbol of the life she longs to have again. Though grief often keeps her company, hope remains steady and unyielding as she waits for his return.
Blood In Our Delta

Genocide On A Love Day
