🇿🇦/🇬🇭Kofi Anku writes “In 1994, my father wrote a personal cheque for $10,000 to Nelson Mandela. A Ghanaian doctor, thousands of miles away, putting his money where his conscience was — standing against apartheid, standing for the dignity of Black people everywhere. The cheque reminds us of what it looks like when Africans stand for each other. That memory is heavy on my mind today. Because right now, Ghanaian migrants in South Africa are being attacked and intimidated. In the very country my father believed in enough to help fund its liberation. The same South Africa whose freedom many across the continent wept, prayed and sacrificed for. Dad understood that what happened in Johannesburg was connected to what happened in Accra. That Black dignity is indivisible. The xenophobia tearing through South Africa today isn't just a South African problem. It's a test of whether that vision of solidarity our parents and grandparents built still means anything. My father is no longer here. But this cheque exists. And it asks a question that I think our generation needs to answer: What are we willing to do for each other? To every Ghanaian — and every African — feeling afraid in South Africa right now: You are not strangers on that soil. Your parents' generation helped liberate it. And to the leaders, on both sides of this: There is a legacy watching.“

Ghanaians don't forget. What goes against John Paintsil was his dishonesty on LIVE TV when Ghana went to perform horribly in Cote d'ivoire. Makes it impossible for people to think he got his job on merit.

THIS POV is from EXPERIENCE !!! Many Ghanaians living in South Africa didn't just choose to stay, circumstances pushed them into it. A lot came on job offers that promised to cover travel costs, with the understanding that they would work and pay it back. But on arrival, some had their passports taken by employers until the debt was cleared. By the time they regain access to their documents, their visas have often expired, leaving them without valid status. Many are unaware of the proper legal steps needed to remain in South Africa, and some end up applying for asylum just to avoid becoming undocumented. Now, with overstayed visas and invalid passports, many are afraid to travel or even go near airports for fear of arrest or bans. If the Ghanaian government were to organize free flights home, you would be surprised how many people would willingly return.

IM RAPPING AGAIN!

A Ghanaian mechanic who’s also a master’s degree, is running his own successful workshop in JHB, and offering to train South Africans 👏🏽 But he made it very clear: he’s willing to share skills, mentor, and open doors… just not for people who aren’t serious and who are lazy to work. This is the kind of mindset and collaboration we need more of skills transfer, hard work, and real opportunities.

Fellow Black people around the world. These are the evil people inciting hatred against black migrants living in South Africa. If they visit your countries, teach them a lesson & kick them out. Failed radio host Jacinta Ngobese, failed & broke radio host and sangoma Ngizwe Mchunu

There's no localized caller ID app for Ghana. The popular option is Truecaller, but it doesn't cover local numbers well. So I'm building one. WhoJustCalled. It'll use community-sourced data so when someone calls, you actually know who it is. Still early. But the need is real.

From all Ghanaians to Carlos Quieroz tomorrow. ‘If you know you won't have the spine to select the squad, step down immediately and save us the trouble’. @OtiAdjei @nathan_quao @theyawofosu @garyalsmith @OfficialSitso one of you should volunteer to read this to him on our behalf. Thank you. Cc: @Yomatornawo

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 Ghana’s 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 — we shall not be divided by the hatred of a few fringe elements.

The best decision a player has made this season is Nicolas Jackson leaving Chelsea to join Bayern Munich,he just won the league and might even win the UCL. What a decision

One thing I believe in is not allowing anyones daughter suffer with me. I believe every1 has a choice & if a girl says they don’t want to be with you, you don’t force them. You have to work on yourself so when you get gold, you can decide whatever you also want with your chest!!!

Let's not be confused now, Oba Femi's moment at Wrestlemania was in no way bigger than Kofimania.

🇬🇭 A missing 9-year-old girl, Hawa, from Agormanya Zongo has been rescued at Accra International Airport during an alleged attempt to traffic her out of the country. One suspect has been arrested following a joint operation by officers from the Odumase-Krobo District Police Command and the Airport Police.
