Just call me “Kweku”. It means Wednesday. The Ghanaians place importance on your “day” name. You see, I was born on a Wednesday. So call me Kweku. I am told that you are called by your “day” name as often, if not more than, your given name. Ok, Kweku is hard to spell and harder for us to remember, so you can call me “Tibbs, Mr. Tibbs.” Just kidding, call me Ray or Ray Jay. Still kidding, call me whatever you want, but not late for supper.
