Just watch Julius Kwame Anthony cut through the noise and lay out the undeniable facts behind Chairman Wontumiโs conviction. Facts over propaganda๐ฅ

You people are watching this madness from barbarians and animals in South Africa and you are not doing anything.
Until all South Africans in other countries start receiving the same measures, that is when you will make moves.
This madness is obviously getting out of hand
Earlier today I summoned the Acting South African High Commissioner to Ghana, Mr. Thando Dalamba.
At the meeting, I conveyed the Government of Ghanaโs strong condemnation of the continuous xenophobic attacks on Ghanaians and other Africans living in South Africa.
We are urging South African authorities to take decisive action in protecting the human rights and dignity of our nationals and all Africans.
Ghana equally expects that the promised investigations be expedited and all perpetrators punished to serve as adequate deterrence.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs will communicate other steps we have taken in due course.

I have this morning held a telephone conversation with my South African counterpart, His Excellency Ronald Lamola, Minister of International Relations and Cooperation. I called him on the trending videos about Ghanaians coming under extremely disturbing xenophobic attacks in South Africa.
The South African Foreign Minister has expressed his empathy with the victims and promised full scale investigations into the depressing incidents.
The Government of South Africa is set to hold a briefing with African Ambassadors later today.
I am also able to confirm that since yesterday, I have been in constant contact with Ghanaโs High Commissioner in South Africa, His Excellency Benjamin Quarshie, coordinating our response.
I am gladdened that so far colleagues in our diplomatic mission have located the main victim in the viral video and are offering consular assistance. He is doing very well.
No Ghanaian life has been lost. We urge calm and confidence in our collective capacity to protect Ghanaians.
Let me assure compatriots that the Mahama Administration remains uncompromising about the welfare and safety of Ghanaians both home and abroad. We are determined to guarantee the protection of all citizens.
May these regrettable incidents never quench our Pan-African love and solidarity for each other. The overwhelming majority of Africans are united and share an unbreakable bond โ we shall not be divided by the hatred of a few fringe elements.
