Sunyani is not a metropolis. 60 thousand people live in the township and this number rises to 100 thousand taking the outlying areas into account. However, in central Ghana this makes it an important hub, with large amounts of immigration and emigration. Those arriving from the north have more often than not had the hard experience of poverty – of learning to live on less than nothing, on the empty rewards of the barren earth. Earth that has seen its forests turn to savannah and its savannah turn to desert. And when you arrive from the north, with nothing but the will which says to you hold on, you can get used to any type of living conditions.
