UG Main Gate

I had to go to the UG Hospital today because I was told, the last time I went for my dental appointment for dental polishing, that I needed to do the filling of a tooth that was getting decayed. As the doctor advised then, I should come when I was less busy. I had the last lecture with the language PhD class yesterday; so, I felt I could spare part of today for the tooth filling.

As usual, I had a long wait; even though I ensured that I was there at the clinic reasonably early enough. Eventually, I was attended to between 12 pm and 1pm.

I am definitely not complaining because I don’t know how many Nigerian universities will include dental care in their staff members health package. I give kudos to the University of Ghana for the extensive health care covering of the staff members.

Anyway, I had the filling done on two teeth rather than just the one identified by the doctor I saw the last time the polishing of my teeth was done.

I was able to talk about Christ to some young men selling the ubiquitous coconut milk drink not far from the hospital grounds. They not only gave their lives to Christ, they also agreed to come to church. I was happy about that. God has prospered my journey today, indeed.

I had ridden my bicycle past the fountain at the Main Gate when I thought that this was a beautiful scene to photograph. You see, since it was re-opened for public use after its renovation, this was my first time of passing there. I even forgot to buy the UG souvenirs I was planning to buy on my way back from the hospital because of the photographs. I had to commandeer two young men going on their way at two different times to take the photographs, apart from the one I took by myself. God bless them for obliging me. I really appreciate their cooperativeness.

So, I present to you the UG Main Gate.

Your comments will be appreciated.
