In recent time the awareness on suicide in Ghana has gone down again after a little attention was given to it especially during the period when most of our young people in the universities fell as victims.

The attitude of Ghanaians and the media changing the subject on suicide after a little attention was given to it – (suicide) is so fast as if the issue was dealt with drastically.

Now the fight against suicide, depression and pain among young people has been left to rot with nobody continuing to advocate for it.

What happen to the fight against ‘Say No to Suicide’, or ‘Decriminalize’ suicide? Are we waiting for another death sequence to occur before we start campaigning from ground zero again to push the agenda on it again?

These are some of the many questions female singer NanaYaa known in real life as NanaYaa Thomas is asking herself and the general public ahead of her campaign ‘Note to Self’ which is an awareness and education campaign on the dangerous matter.

According to the singer; ‘Pain, depression and disappointment are every day things and if not taken serious could do more damage than good.’

She contended that the Physiatrist hospital announced an emergency number to help people with problems but how many of us know that number.

The singer in talking about her campaign said: ‘Note to self’ is an initiative to be the continuous voice of hope to people with the problem of depression, disappointment and pain’.

To be that voice for many with this problem, I teamed up with spoken word artiste Akosua Hanson who is also a presenter at Y107.9fm on a song.
