ADDRESSES & MESSAGES a. Address: Abraham Konotey Ahulu Speech Delivered By The Director Of African Association Of Psychosocial & Marriage Counsellors (Aapmac) On Saturday 30th June, 2012 At AAPMAC National Lauchning & Second Graduation Of Akona School Counselling Ghana Held At Ebenezer Presby Church, Mamprobi, Accra. Mr. Chairman, (Dr. Mike Asamoah, National Director, Ghana United Nations Association), Honourable Minister of Employment and Social Welfare, Management of 3

AAPMAC, Dr.Akwesi Osei, Director of Psychiatric Hospital, Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen, all protocols observed. It affords me much pleasure to be accorded this privilege to address this august gathering on the topic “The Need for Counselling in Africa.” Mr. Chairman,African Association of Psychosocial and Marriage Counsellors is a nondenominational and non-partisan organization gazetted for education, mentoring and human development programme which traces its origin to the Psychosocial, Marriage, Guidance, Community, STIs/HIV/AIDS Counselling Services which KONOTEY AHULU began in 2004, in Ghana, West Africa.I am grateful to say that African Association of Psychosocial & Marriage Counsellors is the First & Leading African Gazetted and Recognized organization for practicing Counsellors. Mr. Chairman, the term Psychosocial is from two words. “Psyche” means the mind and “Social” refers to the human society and its members. Counselling is the process whereby one person called counsellor helps the other person called the Counsellee to come out of his or her problems. Psychosocial Counselling is therefore a process whereby Social Mentality counsellor helps his/her Counsellee to come out of his or her mental and social problems. A Counsellor therefore is a person who has undergone the necessary training and has acquire the necessary skills to help a client come out of an identified problem. Mr. Chairman, I have discovered that, the problems of humanity and the world were not caused by Satan per see but differences in world view which often results in miscommunication. Today, the chance that our young people will find happiness through marriage is slim indeed. The rise of our divorce rate is frightening. One marriage in five or six landed on the rocks in 2010. By 2014, it is expected to be one in four. And if longrange trends continue, the rate in fifty years will be one in two. Marriage is more physical than spiritual. And the responsibilities of spouses are more material and emotional than spiritual. According to experts, effective communication is a necessary requirement for success in marriage. This reminds me of a husband who notified his lawyer that he want to divorce his wife, although he conceded she was beautiful, a fine cook, and a model mother. “Then why do you want to divorce her?” his lawyer asked. “Because she talks all the time,” the husband replied. “What does she talk about?” “That is the trouble” the man answered, “She never says anything.” This is the trouble too with many marriages today. Couples talk but their spouses do not know what they are saying. They may hear the words being spoken, but the mannerism associated with their words gives a different meaning. Mr. Chairman, every working individual comes from a home. And if there are problems in the home the workplace is becomes unsafe. Providing all other measures to increase productivity without an accompanying improvement in sound mind, stable homes and happy families will be like pruning the head of a tree that has dried roots. It may look beautiful for a moment but will die within days. 4

Mr. Chairman, as if this is not enough, one can also look at some of the devastating tales of individuals and families who have surrendered to the global economic crunch which Ghana is not an exception. Several techies in recent months have committed suicide due to job losses. In a worst case, was a student who before the revolution in Tunisia committed suicide because of unemployment. Three members of a business family committed suicide due to losses suffered as an outcome of global recession. One can also talk about the beheading of a Head of Family by one Kweku Mensah resulted in communal violence between the Ewes and Fantes in the Central Region and the recent communal conflict between the indigenes of Hohoe and Muslim Community over burial/exhumation of an Imam led to the vandalization of the Chiefs, three cars and other apartments. Most of the African Countries today are becoming unfavorable for human habitation due to many conflicts and wars. The various violent conflicts that have afflicted Africa for the past century have extorted a huge cost on the continent’s (societies, polities, and economies, robbing them of their) developmental potential. The causes of these unwanted conflicts range from drug abuse through power drunkenness to the reckless use of words by politicians to insight their followers against their opponents. Research has shown that the youth who are been used as tools to insight conflict are mostly those that were raised from broken homes and lack psychosocial counselling. Mr. Chairman, the problems in most of our homes and organizations today demands multitude of counsellors to surmount it. The need for Professional Counsellors can no longer be overlooked. To put these problems under control, African Association of Psychosocial and Marriage Counsellors was formed. African Association of Psychosocial and Marriage Counsellors exits to mentor, train and license professional counsellors who will be resourced to provide the counselling needs of the African Continent. Mr. Chairman, the need for Professional Counselling in Africa cannot be ignored any more. Professional Counselling is a necessity within the African Continent. Counselling enable citizens to manage and plan their learning and work pathways in accordance with their life goals. Counselling assist educational and training institutions to have well motivated pupils, students and trainees to take responsibility for their own learning and set their own goals for achievement. Counselling assist enterprises and organizations to have well motivated, employable and adaptable staff, capable of accessing and benefiting from learning opportunities both within and outside the workplace. Counselling assist in the evelopment of societies, in which citizens actively contribute to their social and democratic evelopment. Counselling helps to reduce the aftermath of a crisis if not preventing the crisis from taking place. Mr. Chairman Counselling is important because it offers the opportunity for a structured approach to a painful or chaotic life event. A skilled therapist can elicit insight and enhance communication, are two important building blocks that can improve family functioning.

5

Sometimes family reactions are not directly related to caregiving situations, but are conflicts and power struggles that may have existed from childhood: siblings competing for parents’ attention; feelings of one child being favoured. Counselling can help siblings resolve old differences, or at least put them aside while focusing on caregiving goals. In summary, in a world filled with both challenge and opportunity, counselling is logical choice for individuals, couples, and families in Africa who wish to grow to the next level of faith and well-being. The Bible speaks of the “safety” that exists among counsellors. Perhaps it’s time to seek the safe harbor of counselling, and make a few repairs before continuing your life’s journey. Thank You and enjoy the rest of the wonderful day. God richly bless you. You are welcome

TESTIMONIES BY STUDENT REPRESENTATIVES Pastor, Abraham Yartey, Accra: Akona School of Counselling Ghana is known for her quality training and service in Theology, Counselling and Leadership. For the handful of time I had with Akona, I received lectures which changed my way of thinking and understanding of the Scriptures. My attitude and ministry is being powered for greater heights. God bless Akona. Mr.Yeboah-Kore J.B, Ghana Publishing Company, Accra Centre Centre: I am Human Right Advocate and an organisation gazetting officer for the past decade. Upon enrolling with Akona School of Counselling Ghana my world view and working skills have been improved. I now have more clients coming to me for business. God bless the vision carrier and his team. Belinda Agyepong-Bekoe (Mrs.), Deputy OIC, Ablekuman South Metro, GES: Akona School of Counselling Ghana is really a blessing to the Ghanaian populace and to Africa in general. Initially, I thought counselling is only for people about to enter into marriage or people with known problems, but with Akona I have realized that even the Counsellor also needs counselling. Through Akona I got to know that all problems are all normal and that when they occur man should not run away but sit down and solve it. May the good Lord bless the dreamer, the visioner and the implementer for allowing himself to be used to serve humanity. Miss Gertrude Weguri Achana Officer in-charge of Community Care Department Of Social Welfare, Ashaiman Municipality: I am so glad. As a pastor I can now deal with peoples mind and handle people’s issues through the application of psychosocial counselling. Psychosocial Counselling has giving me knowledge on Social Counselling, Counselling Psychology, Anthropology, Secular Counselling and Christian Counselling. I can now handle marital problems in my church with ease. I was also trained to write a proposal, constitutions, business plans and law of contracts which has helped me to develop and expand my business. Thank you Akona. 6

Rev. Chris Hoggar, Pastor and School Proprietor, Ashaiman: As a social worker working on many issues in Ashaiman communities and in partnership with individuals, families and groups experiencing marginalization, disadvantage or social difficulties this course was timely for me. Though several lessons have been learnt during the course, there were few sensitive ones that cannot be ignored in the handling of some particular cases. One of the topics treated and which I found very important was the one that talked about history of a client which involves biography from infancy and its related issues to adult life.This course has sharpened my skills to serve a cosmopolitan community such as Ashaiman effectively. I’m grateful to Akona. Mr. J.T. A Partey, Tutor, Ada Senior High & Course Prefect Ada Centre Centre:: The period of training and studies at Akona School of Counselling brought to the fore a lot of interesting and educative interactions. It was a life changing experience. It was also realized that to live means to affect other lives positively, to solve your own problems and assist others from their predicaments, to develop oneself while you help others to also develop themselves. It is also important that we relate well with one another having the understanding that each one of us is a unique being with different ideologies and world views. Kudos to Akona School of Counselling. Grace Amissah, DOVVSU, Ada: I work with the Domestic Violence and Victim Support Unit (DOVVSU/ADA) which we mostly deal with victims of Domestic Violence, Defilement and Rape. I now know my temperament and character traits and understand the way people behave sometimes, and that most of the problems that we go through are not caused by Satan alone but are genetic and our wrong or differences in word view. I used to advice client who seek for help at my office but thanks to ASOC I no longer advice but rather counsel and help them go through the trauma and stress they feel and assist them to make a clear meaningful decision. This course has really had impact on my life and I have learnt a lot of lessons from it. In deed am really blessed and i thank God and Akona school of counselling Ghana (ASOC). Mrs. Oladepo, Midwife Dangme East Hospital, Ada Ada:: I thank God for our director and the vision God has given to him. Through Akona School of Counselling my worldview has changed positively and I have acquired knowledge that has enabled me to start working on my vision which focuses on assisting women especially those in fertility age. I give glory to God for all that I have achieved and more to achieve through school of counselling. Mr. Victor Amposah The Head of Psychiatric Unit Asesewa District Hospital: The Students of Akona School of Counselling comes from various institutions and with different backgrounds. Studying together with people with different caliber is a very good experience. The lectures are dedicated and punctual. The courses are real life experience courses. I am blessed to be a product of Akona School of Counselling Ghana.

I see myself being shaped to fulfil my calling and ministry. Today, I can confidently say that I am an expert in counselling and can also help others improve their situations. Rev. P.K. Abgevem, District pastor, The Apostolic Church Ghana, Akuse: I enrolled as a student in AKONA to study counselling a year ago at Akuse Centre. I thank God and all the lecturers. The study has transformed my life, children and my church. I am now a qualified counsellor ready to practice. Sgt (Mrs.) Rosemina Bani, Ghana Police Service, Akuse: ASOC had equipped me with Techniques that enabled me as a police woman to deal with my clients in a better way than before. I used to advice and instruct them on what to do, but now counsel them to make a clear meaningful decisions. ASOC has also helped sharpen my marriage life, solve personal and marital problems, and also leant how to relate to others irrespective of their weaknesses.

Indeed, the course has helped me to fill in the missing link. My course mates have actually expressed their joy over being partakers of this life building course. Personally, I wish all Ghanaians go through the training for personal benefits if not for career. On behalf of Sogakope branch, I say God bless you Mr. Konotey Ahulu and all the lecturers for realizing this noble Vision. Long live Akona School of Counselling Ghana. Inspector Thomas Obour, Ghana Police Service, Nkurakan: I am Thomas Obour of Ghana Police service, Nkurakan, I wish to send my sincere gratitude to the Director and Management of Akona School of Counselling Ghana for making me a Counsellor, something I have not dreamt of. When I was invited to be a participant of ASOC training, I felt a bit reluctant to honour, but at the end of the course, I have achieved a lot. The course has enhanced my ability to handle people and issues in my profession as a policeman and improve my role as a father at home. I really count my self-blessed and I wish the organization success in its future endeavors. Long live Akona, long live Ghana, and long live Africa.

Rev. Enoch Dugbatey, Pastor, Herald Assemblies of God, Odumase Krobo & Course Prefect, Odumase Krobo Centre: Akona School of Counselling has brought light into the type of counseling I used to do. Before coming to the training, what I used to do was more or less advising people than counseling. Now I have discovered the need of training everyone that is engaged in rendering some sort of counseling, so that we all can render effective counseling services to people that come to us. I haven’t attended other counseling training courses but Akona School of Counseling brings students right into practical counseling. Akona School of Counseling has changed my world view. I now understand that our world view affect us deeply. Most of us attribute the social and emotional problems we face as being caused by evil spirits. Of a truth some may but most often than not it is due to our world view. Before coming to the training school I considered those mad people on the streets and in the mental hospitals to be the only people who are having mental problems, not knowing that every human being at a point in time develops mental problems. Even when one is angry he or she loses mental balance and there are things that throw us out of mental balance every day. Thanks to Akona School it has really affected the type of counseling I do.
