We kept our promise.
No Ghanaian has been abandoned in harm's way.
About a thousand Ghanaians have now been evacuated from South Africa by the Government of Ghana following the latest wave of xenophobic attacks.
Last night, it was a profound honour to welcome our fellow nationals with love, warmth and the pride of being a servant leader in a great country which does not forsake our citizens, particularly in time of distress.
But our work is far from over — we shall ensure reintegration with dignity, medical and psychosocial support, pursue compensation for those who have left properties and businesses behind, secure jobs for folks able to work and intensify our efforts towards achieving Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah's Pan-African dream of genuine African integration.
I commend dedicated staff of the Foreign Ministry; our High Commission in Pretoria; colleague ministers; senior government officials; partner state institutions including GAF, GACL, GCAA, NADMO, GIS, GPS; the IOM; Ethiopian Airlines and the media for the flawless and efficient execution.
We are grateful to Ghanaian CEOs for their remarkable partnership with us aimed at creating employment opportunities for our returning nationals.
God bless President John Mahama for his inspiring and outstanding leadership and guidance.
The Mahama Administration shall continue to defend the rights of our cherished citizens, serve with compassion and safeguard the welfare of ALL GHANAIANS.
For God and Country 🇬🇭 🙏🏾
🚨 How did you feel when Dembélé won the Ballon d’Or?
Lamine Yamal: “Honestly, if I’m being sincere, I thought I was going to win it that day because of many things that happened. Looking back, I think it was very good for me that Dembélé won it. Beyond helping me grow personally, I don’t think it was the right time for me to win it because I was still a kid and probably wouldn’t have appreciated what it really means to win a Ballon d’Or. Let’s see if this year is mine.” #fcblive 👀
The ACL injury made people forget just how big a superstar Gavi is. Before Lamine, he was easily the most popular talent to come out of La Masia.
The sound of the crowd chanting his name >>>>
🎙️Anthony Gordon on what Marcus Rashford was telling him.
🗣️: “He was telling me how great the guys are and what a strong team spirit they have, something I’d already heard from people at Barça.
He also talked to me about the city and places to live.
He’s a lovely guy, very thoughtful. He was simply giving me some information.”
