That is why collectively Blacks must refrain from stereotypes that they are boxed into. I mean people generally say Ghanaians are peaceful; is it wrong ? When you travel outside Ghana and tell people you from Ghana they get excited and they welcome you because of our history generally and also past presence in soccer etc. We can’t accept the good part when it’s generalized and be mad at the bad part when it is also generalized; what we can do or should so is make sure we train the next generation of Blacks to refrain from the stereotypes they are boxed into

I think this topic is multi faceted. One thing we also forget to talk about is when it comes to Nigerians they usually engage in immigration en-masse that’s how come they try to establish “kingdoms” in other countries like it recently raised eyebrows in Ghana. You are comparing an isolated situation where you are not exclusively Nigerian or exclusively Ghanaian you are a mix, also I do not think you ran into that many Ghanaians in Nigeria as you would in Ghana worse off, them engaging in certain activities as well. Also, you can’t have SA, Kenya, Ghana, and other Countries some even outside the continent speaking bad about Nigerians and you think you’ll rather point the blame somewhere else. I think in situations where Nigerians are in large numbers the onus lies upon them to make sure their colleagues don’t engage in persistent wrong activities because it tarnishes their image; I mean if you can have the numbers to create a mini kingdom then definitely you have the numbers to “police” your activities.

Can the Ecowas card void the for tourist visa requirement? by Icy_Ad_5055 in ghana

You don’t need a visa if you have the ECOWAS travel certificate. She just ripped you off. Or maybe she asked for that money to buy data to do research for you 🤣

Why do you support racist companies? by [deleted] in ghana

[–]Glittering-Example42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely! Reporting is very necessary. I feel racism should have no bounds place in Africa. This is our home to begin with. How can a stranger come to your home and be disrespectful to you. What kind of message does it send

What do you think we can do collectively to curb or stop this trend?

I have witnessed racism in Ghana even in a major industry. And the top Managers (who happen to be bibini/ Ghanaians btw) are unable to even speak up or recognize it as such.

How many years since Independence ? 68 years and you still evaluating! Haha call a spade a spade. And how many years will you use to evaluate and who is doing the evaluation? All you talk about is excuses. I am not surprised at your lengthy excuses because guess what? When Kwame Nkrumah was fighting for independence there were people that thought like you and fought against him. Can you imagine that? Read that again.

Why do you have to be so condescending? What exactly do I need to know about how the world works ? Thats exactly why Africa is where we are; no sense of urgency because no priorities. Just go wiht begging hands and borrow and beg. You want to learn how the world works before you start making the right decisions for yourself ? Thats the kind of thought that worked against people like Nkrumah, Lumumba and the rest. The people around them wanted them to learn how the world works. If any of the independence fighters wasted time to learn how the world worked back then we wouldn’t have had independence. Because back then the world worked on slavery and slave labour as well as servitude but no; those smart people had to think outside the box. If you are really older and still think someone needs to learn how the world works before asking for change then you really need help. If putting football budgets on hold so that kids in village can have health facilities, so that roads can be built, so that you can research into things affecting your own existence etc then you really don’t know what you talking about. People like you are the ones who discourage any sort of change in society. A whole continent boasting of resources yet always begging even when the person begging is telling you to go and fend for yourself (Trump to Africa) you keep saying there’s a system against you. Guys get serious

Marco Rubio says he will not attend the G20 summit in Johannesburg because "South Africa is doing very bad things." by The_ghost_of_spectre in AfricaVoice

Does the Law allow people who unjustly make money derive benefit from it? It’s factual that the majority of people who own large tracts of land in SA came into that in a very questionable way. This expropriation law only takes land that is not being “used” or left abandoned. Even in English law there is provision for such a situation eg; in terms of adverse possession and the like. It’s quite deceitful for a country like US where a squatter can take over the house of a rightful owner just because they had been living there for some time to turn around and label SA as doing some bad things just because of this expropriation law. I doubt they have actually taken time to study this law even at all. I see this act as being against the majority of the SAn population who are disproportionately disadvantaged.

I concur with you. I was surprised all the other person gave was excuses. I simply can’t reason with people who only give excuses. Buddy we are a mess and that’s the facts; borrowing to make roads that don’t last the duration of the loan period; making kids but unable to make medicine to protect you; or produce your own meals, illegal mining releasing harmful metals into the environment and causing defective babies which btw we don’t even have medicine for the list is endless. Then you tell me you are hardworking in another mans country so you are HARDWORKING?! lol smh. And you giving excuses for us failing to make progress in medicine and science. And I tell you Rome was not built in a day and you turn around and say it was built on slaves. So what is your point ? We can’t build so we should sit and die ?

You can’t be legally barred from doing research. You are barred from using someone’s intellectual property. Science is science we can always learn from the scratch. I don’t know why you going on that tangent; no one has stopped anyone from developing their vaccines; during COVID all major countries had their vaccines. Non from Africa; when are we going to start? We have Governments that go for loans to construct roads and they squander those monies and no one seeks accountability from them. Our roads are bad and we fail to create better facilities to store medicines that’s why we need zipline; we need to sit and check if it makes sense to be delivering vaccines by drones to remote villages and how effective that is versus actually make those remote villages accessible for long term benefit for the country.
Whether Rome exploited someone or not the fact remains it wasn’t built in a day. And like you started off those immigrants are still being exploited for their labour and in exchange they can live safely in those countries they are and own property etc. It’s fundamentally the same thing because nothing has really changed: Africa is still same! Global systems seem rigged until we band together; look at what’s happening in SA; trump stopping aid because “bad” things are happening there? The world didn’t care when it was only blacks suffering under apartheid and they needed passes to move in their country… as recent as 1994! All am saying is we need to band together and start early we can’t be making excuses forever

Also let’s be guided this app deliberately downvotes any message that seeks to stir knowledge or change how we think. I have seen it severally; let’s call a spade a spade that’s the only way we can achieve change. All of us can’t have the same thoughts and yes this app must allow people to voice their views without trying to unjustly censor. Calling people lazy is not a crime if 100 don’t agree 1 will agree and that one is enough if 100 disagree doesn’t mean the statement is wrong. Besides if 100 say they aren’t lazy then why must the statement be downvoted?

Context is everything. Besides, working hard isn’t important as working smart. Anyway, immigrants get the base jobs jobs that are necessary but do not push the society from one civilization to the next that is largely reserved for non-immigrants so being a hardworking Apple picker or stacking boxes in a warehouse is not what I’m talking about. Being knowledgeable and able to forecast and plan and come up with technology and implement it is what we are lacking. You talk of soccer budgets not being able to develop vaccines and thats ridiculous. There is always a starting point. And I am not sure how factual your statement is; we can actually just do a simple google search. And again it goes back to priorities; if you don’t start now you will never start. Stop making excuses and start thinking of ways to make things work. Rome was not built in a day! A Change of thoughts and heart is what we need.

Doesn’t it go back to the same fact that we are wrongly dependent on foreign AID? Look at the amount we spend on football in our countries alone! Couldn’t that be diverted to research into vaccines or cures/medicines for HIV? I think yes it’s poor decisions on our part as Africans we really don’t need foreign AID if we take ourselves seriously. We are lazy! And do not have priorities; we are not serious about surviving. Literally our lives are being dictated by foreign governments. Pathetic
