Moroko Akwantuo: Fa Wo Hwene Fa Kuro Kɔkɔɔ, Dye Dwumadibea ne Sahara

Bere a edi kan a meyɛɛ Moroko akwantuo nhyehyɛe no, na mesusu sɛ asase mfoni no befi Casablanca airport ahyɛase, afi Marrakech, Fes, Merzouga kɔsi Sahara. Sɛ miduu hɔ ankasa a, na mihunuu sɛ Moroko mmfa kilomita ntrɛ, na mmom, ɛde hua di kan gye wo. Sɛ Marrakech anwummere mframa no bɔ a, nnuhuam dwa so no, saffron, kumino, cinnamon ne rose nhwiren a wɔayam no te sɛ aguadifoɔ nketewa a wɔn nyinaa kasa prɛko, na obiara mpɛ sɛ ɔma ɔfoforɔ kwan. Menantee brɛoo wɔ kotoku ne kotoku ntam, na otuufoɔ no de Ras el Hanout bi hyɛɛ me nsam, nnuhuam aduasa akyiripɔ a wɔaka abom, ɛte sɛ kwansoɔ tete a efiri Sahara aguadifoɔ kwan so kɔsi Kuro Kɔkɔɔ fasu ase.

Sɛ ade sa a, Jemaa el-Fnaa adum no sɔ kwan yi so. Gyame so, carbon no hyerɛn ntoatoaso, na nguanten nam sradeɛ no sɔ gu gya mu, na wusiwusi fitaa no sɔre ntɛm ara; snail soup fennel hua, nam a wɔatoto hua, ne orange sotɔɔ a wɔatwitwa mu no dɛ kronn, nyinaa bata akraman ne nteɛmu so. Obi twa wo ba menu so, obi de akonnwa ma wo, obi firi wusiwusi mu sere bisa sɛ 'China?' Metenaa plastic akonnwa a ɛrehinhim so, hwɛɛ sɛnea wɔdann nam no, na mpofirim metee aseɛ sɛnea nnipa pii ka sɛ Marrakech ma obi brɛ: ɛnyɛ dede, ɛyɛ ma, na mframa mpo nni baabi a ɛda hɔ kwa.

Fes hua yɛ tete, na ɛnyɛ fɛ nso. Medina akwan no mu yɛ den, na nnipa baanu a wɔrehyia no, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔdan wɔn ho, na nantew nnyegye, afunumu dɔn, akyirikyiri mpaeɛ nnyegye no, ɔfasuo no san de ba, sɛ ɛregye so wɔ aboɔ mu. Sɛ wubɛn Chouara Nhoma Dye Dwumadibea no, mframa no mu yɛ duru, na nhoma foforɔ ne ammonia hua no di kan kɔ wɔ hwene mu. Nhoma sotɔɔ wura a ɔwɔ soro no de nnaa ahaban maa me, kaa sɛ memfa nsi m'ani ase. Nnaa no awɔw no gyee me simma tiawa bi, nanso fam hɔ no, dye nu mu da so yɛ kɔkɔɔ, akokɔsradeɛ, indigo a wɔatrɛ mu, na adwumayɛfoɔ no de wɔn nan bo fam wɔ dye no mu, sɛnea bere nsesaeɛ nso nsesa adwuma no. Saa bere no, metee aseɛ sɛ, abakɔsɛm nna dinn wɔ tete nneɛma akorae mu, na mprenpren no, ɛtumi hye wo ma wo su nisuo.

Sɛ mifi dye dwumadibea no akyi no, meyerae wɔ Fes tete kuro no mu simma aduasa. Akwan no mu no, wo nhu wiem, na ɛkaa kɔɔp nwura a wɔde rebɔ tray no dede kronn, paanoo dan aduaba ano nnyegye, ne mmofra bɔɔl a ɛbɔ dua pon no. Abarimaa bi a ɔhyɛ Moroko ɔman kuo red atadeɛ no tuu mmirika faa m'akyi, na w'akyi nkyerɛwee Hakimi. Saa atadeɛ no, Medina mfutuma no maa ɛyɛɛ fitaa, nanso ɛyɛ Moroko sen nkae nneɛma sotɔɔ biara mu atadeɛ foforɔ. Bɔɔl bɔ wɔ ha nyɛ biribi a wɔde kyerɛ nsrahwɛfoɔ, na mmom, ɛyɛ baabi a akwan nnyegye no yɛ dede, ɛyɛ tea sotɔɔ television so a ɛhyerɛn, na ɛyɛ abofra bi a ɔdan ne ho tu mmirika no simma a ɛbɛyɛ da biara asetena.

Efi Fes kɔ anaafoɔ, hua no hyɛ aseɛ yera nkakrankakra. Sɛ wodu Merzouga a, Sahara sare no nni hua koraa. Awia no mu hyew no yɛ kronn, na anhwea, awia ne wiem no te sɛ wɔatwe nsuo afiri mu; hwene no nni adwuma mpofirim, na ɛkaa ano nkyene ne kɔla mu fifiri. Anadwo no, medaa camp akyi hwɛɛ nsoromma, na Milky Way no ba fam sɛnea ɛrebɛtɔ sand dune no akyi. Kuro mu sradeɛ wusiwusi nni hɔ, dye dwumadibea hua nni hɔ, market dɛ nni hɔ, na ɛkaa gya a ɛhyehye dua mu hua kakra. Guide no de tea kettle too gyam nkyɛn sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ hyew, na nnaa tii a wɔhwiee no wɔ wusiwusi mu kakra, na ne dɛ nso, sare no ayam no ayɛ tɛkyɛma na asen, sɛ mframa a woremfa nnyina. Sahara a ɛyɛ nwanwa paa no, ɛnyɛ biribi foforɔ, na mmom, ɛyi hua nyinaa firi wo so, na ɛma wote w'ankasa ahomegye a ɛdikan.

Sɛ mesan kɔɔ Riad a, Moroko san de hua no brɛɛ wo. Dua kɛse a ɛmu yɛ duru no firi akwan no mu bue, na emu yɛ wiase foforɔ: nsuo kɛse ketewa, mosaic ɔfasuo, ankaa ne ankaa nhwiren a ɛnwononwono. Ankaa nhwiren hua no nyɛ aduhuam a ɛyɛ dɛ tee, na mmom, ɛyɛ nwose, brɛoo, sɛ nsuo a ɛretwa tile no ho akɔ soro. Ahɔhoɔ dan no wura de nnaa tii brɛɛ me, na tea kettle no kɔɔ soro, na green tea no yɛɛ ahuru wɔ glass kuruwa no mu, na asikre no dɔɔso sɛnea ɛte sɛ biribiara nni hɔ a. Sɛ menum kan a, na mesusu sɛ ɛyɛ dɛ dodoɔ, nea ɛtɔ so mmienu no, mehyɛɛ aseɛ gye too mu, na nea ɛtɔ so mmiɛnsa no, metee aseɛ: Moroko dɛ nyɛ nnuane yɛ, na mmom, ɛyɛ ahɔhoɔ a wɔgye wɔn ɔkwan.

Deɛ ɛmaa mekaee saa dɛ yi ankasa ne tajine baako. Sɛ woyi pottery ɔkoso no a, oguanten nam, gyeene, apricot a wɔayam, cinnamon ne ginger a wɔanoa brɛoo no hua nyinaa pue prɛko, a ɛne adum so barbecue ntɛm no yɛ soronko koraa. Tajine mpɛ wo ntem, ɛma nam no yɛ mmerɛ wɔ n'ankasa nsuo mu, na ɛma aduaba dɛ ne nnuhuam hyew no di nkitahodie brɛoo. Pɔn foforɔ so, mmeranteɛ bi de wɔn ani si telefon so rehwɛ bɔɔl bɔ mfoni nketewa, na Hakimi a ɔhyɛ aseɛ wɔ nifa so no, obiara a ɔwɔ ɔpono no so no kaa 'ah!' prɛko. Sotɔɔ wura no maa ne ti so hwɛe, seree kaa sɛ ɔyɛ ɔman hwɛsoɔ, wɔwoo no Spain, nanso sɛ ɔtu mmirika a, ɔyɛ Moroko ba. Sɛ ɔka wieeɛ no, ɔsan hwiee tii maa yɛn, na ne nsa kɔɔ soro, sɛ ɔde nsɔano regu saa atɛntrenee yi so.

Saa asɛm yi maa mekaee 2022 Wiase Kupɔn no. Moroko kɔɔ semifinals no akyi, wiase renfa ani koro nhwɛ Moroko bɔɔl bɔ bio. Ɛnyɛ 'black horse fairy tale' nko ara na wɔde bɛkyerɛkyerɛ mu; ɛte sɛ adum wusiwusi no akyi hua a ɛda so wɔ atadeɛ no so. Bounou gyee penalty, Amrabat faa midfield, Hakimi de spoon penalty yii Spain, saa mfoni no san kyekyeree identiti a ɛbɔ petee wɔ Madrid, Paris, Amsterdam ne Casablanca no bɔɔ mu bio. Bɔɔl bɔ wɔ ha nyɛ beaeɛ a wɔkɔhwɛ, nanso mpofirim, ɛbɛpue firi kɔfe sotɔɔ television, taxi radio, ne mmofra atadeɛ a wɔhyɛ no mu.

Anadwo a edi ansa na merekɔ Marrakech no, mesan kɔɔ Jemaa el-Fnaa. Wusiwusi no ara na ɛkɔ so yɛ kɛse, barbecue sotɔɔ no ara na ɛyɛ ma, na nnaa tii no ara na ɛyɛ dɛ mmorosoɔ. Nanso na metumi akyerɛ level ahorow wɔ basabasayɛ no mu: di kan, nnuhuam market hyew, afei dye dwumadibea nnaa awɔw, na akyire no, Sahara hyew a ɛnyɛ hwee, na ɛno akyi Riad ankaa nhwiren nwose, tajine a wɔanoa brɛoo, ne kuruwa ase asikre. Moroko akwantuo a ɛyɛ nkaeɛ pa ara nyɛ beaeɛ baako a wɔakɔhwɛ, na mmom, saa nnuane hua yi a ɛhyehyɛ kwansoɔ wɔ nipadua no mu. Wosusu sɛ woafa ɔman baako, nanso ɔman no de hua faa wo.
