Car bums...

or Accra from the back seat of a taxi.

Some one must have started all this, but I'm sure no one remembers the origins.

The messages began on tro tros, and reflect a general Ghanaian attitude toward religion: open and always. Now it's everywhere; mostly on taxis and tro tros. And there seems to be a secular element creeping in — "no weapon" and "yes man" — though perhaps I'm just missing the religious references. It makes a ride more interesting than looking for out-of-province plates.

These have on occasion helped me find my cab in a queue of waiting taxis.
