The Portuguese claimed to have discovered the uninhabited islands of Cape Verde in the 15th century and later brought enslaved Africans from the West African mainland to populate and work on the islands.
John Yeboah Zamora, born in Germany to a Ghanaian father and Ecudorian mother has been himself to Ghanaians tonight. I took a few photos of him the other day in the Ecuador pre world cup friendly against Guatemala.
Hakimi, Mbappé, Ivan Toney & Partey all face various allegations of sexual misconduct, but only Partey has been barred by Canada.
If the standard is about allegations, then it must be applied equally, not selectively.
Anything else looks like obvious hypocrisy dressed up as justice.

This was a nice touch by the Ivorian team after the game.
Despite most fans not being able to make it to the US, they celebrated with the ones that made the trip to Philadelphia. ❤️🇨🇮
I spent my Sunday morning with some vegetable farmers in the Volta region….i listened and wrote their concerns down. We are not there yet, but we are making progress. Agric will be great again!
Five years ago, Bechem United, a Ghana Premier League side, had just signed a young striker who had not played for any club before.
He had been spotted playing community football. He was an instant hit in the league. Four goals in his first 10 games. I travelled to Bechem to interview him.
Listening to his journey from Sampa to Bechem, I had to turn the interview into a motivational session. Urged him on to forget where he came from and work hard.
I’m glad he is making it.
The name is Prince Adu Kwabena and he will be striking for Ghana at the World Cup.

Since the 🇬🇭 @GhanaBlackstars have been here, they've made it a point to provide non-stop entertainment around the team hotel — and they'll be all over the 🏴 ENG & 🇭🇷 CRO games!
A Ghanaian woman raised in South Africa was left homeless after her Durban salon was looted in anti-migrant violence in May. She and her 14-year-old son now sleep on the street next to some 200 other migrants https://t.co/uSm8cL6fqz
Ghana 🇬🇭 overtook Cape Verde 🇨🇻 to become the country with the most powerful passport in West Africa in 2025.
The Ghanaian passport can access about 45 countries visa-free.
Thomas Partey will play no part in Ghana’s first World Cup game in Toronto as he has been denied entry to Canada, sources have told The Athletic.
Ghana are set to open their tournament at Toronto’s BMO Field against Panama on Wednesday, June 17 but sources familiar with the process, who are not authorised to discuss it publicly, have told The Athletic that Partey cannot travel to Canada and therefore will not be able to feature.
The Canadian government website outlines that, “if you have committed or been convicted of a crime, you may not be allowed into Canada.” Partey has been charged, but is awaiting trial and has not been convicted.
He denies the charges.
