What cultural faux pas should I try to avoid making in Accra?

"It is important to be respectful of local customs and traditions when visiting Accra. It is considered rude to point with your finger, so it is best to use an open hand when gesturing. It is also important to dress modestly, as revealing clothing is considered inappropriate. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local religious customs and to be respectful of religious sites. Finally, it is important to be aware of the local language and to avoid speaking loudly or using offensive language," commented one expat who made the move to Accra, Ghana.
