"Ghanaians are gone now, 300 of them. How many 300 jobs were created after the Ghanaians left."
Julius Malema says blaming migrants for job losses deepens colonial divisions and that Ghana’s response risks blaming entire societies for the actions of a few people.
They sent Julius Malema to prison, few days later, protests broke out across the country chanting “Africans must leave their country”
Meanwhile they themselves are also Africans
Julius Malema once said:
"When they are done with foreigners , they will come for you. You will be told you are Xhosa and you must only stay in the Eastern Cape" https://t.co/DoM4mB7qqY…
That’s a very lazy and dangerous take from you. I don’t have crayons to explain this to your childish brain and reasoning but I’ll try below.
You don’t fix economic problems by blaming poor people who crossed a border. Plenty of immigrants have built businesses, create d jobs and filled gaps your own system isn’t solving. Acting like poverty is a crime or that every immigrant is a criminal just exposes prejudice and uncultured behaviour.
South Africans live and work all over Africa and the world. Imagine every country took this same attitude. You can push for better immigration control without dehumanising people or rewriting reality. During that painful apartheid, Nigeria, Ghana etc stood behind you to fight the ills against you.
If your economy is struggling, look at leadership, corruption, policies, lack of opportunities etc. Don’t make immigrants scapegoats.
Not only did Ghanaians fix their country way before they got out of over a hundred years of slavery under white people in South Africa, President Rawlings of Ghana contributed 1 million dollars to the South African freedom fight to end Apartheid.
One million dollars he donated of Ghanaian taxpayers' money so that she can have the audacity to claim she has a country today.

A major audit tabled in Parliament today raises serious questions about how public money has been managed.
The Ghana Audit Service, working with EY and PwC, examined GH¢68.7 billion in government arrears and claims.
What they found:
• GH¢8.1 billion in claims rejected due to fake documentation, duplication and payments for work not done.
• A GH¢89.4 million liability linked to the One District One Factory programme that banks say never existed.
• Payments reportedly made to a bank account that does not exist.
• Thousands of tonnes of rice and maize paid for but not fully delivered.
The Finance Ministry says without this audit, billions of cedis could have been wrongly paid out.
The report has now been referred to the Office of the Attorney-General of Ghana for investigation.
For many Ghanaians, this raises the bigger question:
How much public money could have been lost without this audit?
Ghana:
1. Some vendors add paracetamol to beans to cook them faster.
2. Palm oil is mixed with paint; palm wine with DDT.
3. Frying plantain with plastic with a side of E. coli.
4. Food and water contain arsenic, lead and mercury.
5. Expired dates are reprinted on products.
"China, US pressure Ghana to halt gold royalty hike, document, sources say" https://t.co/9okEnIfo0L
This bothers me. Because once this 'coordinated push' is rebuffed by the Ghana government, strange things start happening. How long can we keep our strong Goldbod regime going?
I don't pretend to be anyone's teacher, but people have died and many more will die, with millions of defenseless people, especially children, at risk.
You can't make fun of everything at any cost.
Take a step back, remain silent, and pray for those who didn't make it.
No, Nigeria did not ban only white models;
the policy prohibits the use of foreign models and voice-over artists in advertisements targeted at the Nigerian market, regardless of race or ethnicity.
This means the ban applies to all non-Nigerian citizens, aiming to promote local talent and address the overrepresentation of foreigners in ads.
So, it's not just white people, as you make it seem. It's foreigners. Meaning we have whites who are Nigerians that you can use—if you want to.
They are saying, use Nigerians to sell to Nigerians. Where is the problem?
You can't just outsource all the big money to others who aren't from Nigeria while you make all the money in Nigeria.
I don't think that's discrimination; it's protection.
It gives Nigerians more opportunities to thrive in their country in a space where they have been previously excluded.
You wouldn't know what that is until you have seen how these multinationals abused all their privileges in Nigeria.
@Dereal_ZAMI@Betalameviews I think it's where you placed "...while returning from England" in the sentence after mentioning all those other places; it's confusing to tell if who exactly is returning from England, them or you.
I invited the family of the late Nana Agyei Ahyia to a meeting at the Foreign Ministry earlier today.
After directly conveying my deepest condolences, I briefed the family on interventions carried out by the Ministry following the tragic loss of Nana Agyei which include:
1) Promptly dispatching a fact-finding mission from our embassy in Germany having regard of their concurrent accreditation to Latvia;
2) The fact-finding mission has presented a preliminary report to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs;
3) Confirmation by Latvian authorities that investigations into the circumstances leading to the death of Nana Agyei have not been concluded;
4) My formal notification to the Latvian government of my decision to travel to Latvia to hold talks with my counterpart and engage investigators;
5) That my imminent delegation to Latvia will include representatives of the family of Nana Agyei Ahyia; and
6) Government of Ghana will engage independent experts to analyze all investigative reports, particularly the expected final report from the Latvian authorities to inform our next steps in the interest of justice.
For God and Country 🇬🇭 🙏🏾
