Folks, as I was enjoying Michael Bolton’s “When a Man Loves a Woman” last night, I wondered about the opposite, I mean “When a Woman Loves a Man”. Fortunately for me, I chanced on Ama Gyimaa’s letter to her boyfriend which I believe my good friend Samuel Nugent intercepted and posted on some social media platform many months ago. Please read on:

Hello Sweet boy,
My heart is beat kumkum, kumkum for your beautiful love as am write this massage to you. I like the things you do me at secret places. You make me see that the world is sweet also.
If your love is crime then I be policeman to catch it to my heart prison because it is not ordinarily love. But the things Iam freightend always is that many girls are want you. They do things to jealousy me.
You saw that many men are wanting me but am minding you only. So promise me that the devils will not win you from me, because I gived all my heart for you. Remember our enjoy times always.
I love you more than the all the sands in the beach. Forget me not or else you will be what a shock soon.
Your only girl lover,
Ama Gyimaa.
Just after I finished reading Ama Gyimaa’s letter, I saw a purported breaking news which had gone viral. Chai, Ghana people dey talk! Them dey say Nana has appointed his former girlfriend who be mother of in first pikin as Ambassador for Czech Republic. Sosket, this be old firewood cum petrol; idey burn rado, radozo.
Hehehehehe, love matter be serious matter oo. Bolton says that when a man loves a woman, he will give up his comfort and sleep out in the rain, and Ama Gyimaa also says that because of love her heart beats kumkum, kumkum.
I’m very sure since Nana became president, Auntie Virginia’s heart has been beating kumkum. Kumku, and some people dey talk say maybe she want chop Shadow First Lady oo,. No be me dey talk oo. I’m sitting my somewhere, and I don’t want any trouble, ayoo.
Under normal circumstances I would have allowed this to pass. But kikikikiiki, the person who accused the young man from Bole of the sin of Family and Friends, is not only doing Family and Friends, but Girlfriends and Shadow Wives. Kai, the world no sweet koraa. Michael Bolton is right, When a man loves a woman, he doesn’t mind what the electorate will say, he will trade his country for her.
Yes, it is true that the world is not sweet, and I know you are sad too, but please let me console you with Michael Bolton’s song:
When a man loves a woman
Can’t keep his mind on nothin’ else
He’d trade the world
For a good thing he’s found
If she is bad, he can’t see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend
If he puts her down
When a man loves a woman
Spend his very last dime
Trying to hold on to what he needs
He’d give up all his comforts
And sleep out in the rain
If she said that’s the way
It ought to be
When a man loves a woman
I give you everything I got (yeah)
Trying to hold on
To your precious love
Baby please don’t treat me bad
When a man loves a woman
Deep down in his soul
She can bring him such misery
If she is playing him for a fool
He’s the last one to know
Loving eyes can never see
Yes when a man loves a woman
I know exactly how he feels
‘Cause baby, baby, baby
I am a man
When a man loves a woman
Nana I beg you take Ama Gyimaa’s advice oo, don’t do things that will jealousy Auntie Becky oo, yoo. Forget her not oo, so you don’t become what a shock, as Ama Gyimaa would like to put it.
