  Words from Kanayo O. Kanayo, the Legend. *You Cannot Afford To Retire* I have come to this conclusion, not just from books or sermons, but from the steady drumbeat of real life. From watching friends, colleagues, family members, great men—men of wisdom, strength, and wealth—choose to retire... only to quietly fade into sickness, into sorrow, and then, far too soon, into the arms of death. Retirement, in the way the world understands it, is not rest—it is resignation. Resignation from purpose. From duty. From the creative tension that keeps the spirit vibrant and alert.  We are taught that everything in creation is in motion. Motion is life. Motion is law. Look around you: *. Rivers flow ceaselessly—wherever the current breaks off, water *. stagnates and death settles in. *. The Earth rotates without pause. *. The seasons march in perfect obedience. *.

  In July 2023, a small group of five passionate individuals in Accra, Ghana, embarked on a mission to tackle the city’s mounting waste challenges. Armed with brooms, shovels, and an unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship, they formed the “Buz Stop Boys,” aiming not only to clean the streets but also to inspire a broader cultural shift towards environmental responsibility.   Origins and Growth Led by civil engineer Heneba Kwadwo Sarfo, the Buz Stop Boys began their journey by addressing local sanitation issues, starting from Kasoa and expanding their efforts to other areas, including the Spintex catchment area.
