The narrative from Ghanaians is the thing that make me write about Ghana, you'd think people that called themselves so peaceful and so welcoming wouldn't be colorists. You'd think that they would be kind without their hand out for a few dollars just to be kind to you cost you a lot. You would think that Ghana wouldn't be the country for scamming.

People will think because I wrote a book about Ghana and how fucking rude the people were to me, and I say "TO ME" because there is this narrative that Ghanaians are so welcoming.

I have always noticed the people that say this often live segregated from most Ghanaians living in the country. Ooh wait & they have money, they have money in the US so in Ghana it is a big difference in how you experience Ghana.

They are hyper focused on skin color, I will always say this, Ghanaians and many other Africans practice white supremacy. It shows that they are much like the racists twats in the United States, they even use their same rhetoric talking points on people who immigrate to Ghana.

The book highlights their extreme colorism, rape culture and the ignored culture of bullying. Something is truly wrong in Ghana and I am not the only one that has noticed it. 

I've written about this a lot, even shared the videos of other African Americans on YouTube but what I haven't shared is the governments corruption, police accused of murdering people and the many tribal disputes that the government seems to be messing in.

A Ghanaian named Osagyefo Oliver Barker-Vormawo, who is also an activist shares some of the things that the Ghana government and police are doing to citizens. I have also researched many incidents where Ghanaians who speak up about issues in the government are some how killed.

Ghanaians don't have the rights to speak out about their government, African Americans that live in Ghana seem to not care about the rot in the country. Yes, rot, Ghana is ROTTEN, I am using a term that 4 Ghanaians used when they've talked to me.

When you really look deeper into Ghana it's a scary & corrupted country. The fact that the United States needs Ghana is one reason why many of the human rights violations in Ghana are being ignored.

Believe this, if these things happened in countries like Burkina Faso, Zimbabwe or others that have turned their backs on the US it would be plastered all over the place.

Below is a video about the growing highway robberies and kidnappings.

Here is a recent post from Osagyefo Oliver Barker-Vormawo, it was on several of his social media platforms.

I have just received devasting news.

My friend, my former cell mate from Ashaiman; and my client, Ibrahim was yesterday shot from behind, while on his motor bike.

His body was released to the family by the Ghana Police Hospital today.

My firm was just in Court this week in a lawsuit we are representing he and his wife against the IGP and Attorney-General. The Police just filed their Defence.

We had sued the Ghana Police Service for constantly harassing; subjecting him to unlawful arrests; search and stealing his furnishings from his house.

Constantly budging into their house at midnight while and he and his wife are sleeping; even naked!

No stranger has ever loved me as deeply as Ibrahim did, when he became my friend from Police Cells.

I am broken. I can't stand that I wasted a huge part of my life and time by moving to Ghana. And people always blame you for moving to Ghana, proclaiming you were the one that didn't do your research. Kinda hard when Ghana is said to be paying influencers to push Ghana down your throat.

Also even harder when Ghanaians don't always treat you like shit when you are on a simple visit. They don't always shout the hatred, colorism, rape (and rape culture), you're not always going to be called a fat pig, big biggie or darky & blacky on that trip.

Ghanaian Michael Blackson is suing the Ghana government, he claims his funds for the school he build were stolen. Here you can read about that. 

Even though it's comical that he is pretending that he didn't know Ghana was the 2nd highest scamming country in Africa.

Conflicts In Ghana - many of the conflicts are hidden from the media, however there are many ways to find out about the curfews and conflict ares. If you go and look for the information you can find it but knowing where to look and wanting to are 2 different things.

Sampa Ghana in the Bono Region

Bawku Ghana in the Upper East of Ghana - there was also a video of a murdered man, as he laid dead they took stones and threw them at his head. It was also posted that these photos & videos were sent to his family members.

Ghanaian speaks about being scammed, he was scammed by a man that also scammed several Ghanaians. The Ghana police made him oay them for doing their work. He tells how scammers don't go to trail but are set free with no case or punishment. Better yet they never get a criminal record or conviction.

Ghanaians took to social media to show that the military had left the area which lead way for the fighting to take place. Why wasn't the Ghana military there, when they are normally always stationed in Bawku? I even speak to a soldier that is stationed there, I meant him a few years ago when he was on leave in Accra, Ghana for 2 weeks.

I even speak to a soldier that is stationed there, I meant him a few years ago when he was on leave in Accra, Ghana for 2 weeks. However he was posting from Accra during all this, he was on leave for much more than 2 weeks. Why would soldiers all of a sudden be on a longer than normal leave?

Everything about how horribly corrupt, violent and lawless about Ghana is being revealed yet people are ignoring the crime. The fraud will eventually bring Ghana to its knees.
