In Ghana, protestors are arrested and sent to prisons with the police cutting off any contact the arrested might have with the outside world as they are following “orders from above”.
The govt is destroying every piece of hard won gains from the 2000s in both civic and economic/
An additional 15 or so were arrested. As for those ones, we don’t even know where they are. Everyone keeps saying “Order from Above”. We have called every Above in this here Accra, still nothing. So right now, who exactly is this “Above” ?

Ironically being a “good girl” means being shy, lacking social skills and only going to church or work when you step out of the house.

Again as always, it was Ghanaian leaders who caused the problem and sold lands they didn’t have a claim to to unsuspecting foreigners.
The trope of the Ghanaian elites selling its people out for money is almost factual at this point..
The fact that black ppl from America, Canada, Caribbean etc can go to Ghana displace local Ghanaians, lay claim to a land and threaten to shoot Ghanaians who were the original occupiers of the land should have been the conversation we were having on this app today.

It’s strange seeing blacks/NorthAfricans rejoice about the riots because France/coloniser/karma.
You still live in a country with a GDP/capita less than $12,000 and you will likely not leave your country as migration into the West will be curtailed thanks to events like this.
A lot of people are only bold enough to speak truth to power where it’s allowed to.
You leave your oppressive countries with a whimper only to become loud and fierce in countries that take you in simply because they tolerate it.

A lot of talk comparing Aang to Korra would be over if Aang was not always playing defensive almost every time.
The few times he actually goes in for the offensive, no one gets close to him.
A dark creative Aang would have been beautiful to watch.
This is the coolest and most creative bending move I’ve seen in the show and it’s sad that we never see it happen again

The AU or any black country must step up.
Unfortunately, it seems black people only care about injustice to black people if the perpetrators are whites.
Anyway, what’s with South Africans in the QTs endorsing this?
Migrants from sub-Saharan Africa are being forced out of the Tunisian coastal city of Sfax where racial tensions have led to violence ⬇️

The quote tweets and comments.. tribalism is deep rooted in the African.
Many of the choicest lands in Accra are not owned by the Ga people of Accra but have been expropriated from them by the state, with very little compensation.

Cultural problem.
Hint: The political elite of many sub Saharan countries do not regard the masses as humans or see them as a form of seed capital. The masses are only capital to be exploited.
A holdover of feudal culture which was predominant before colonisation.
Ghana and then by extension developing nations shock me.
We say in economics that the most important resource is human resource. Shouldn't developing nations be investing in human resources and making sure that those resources develop their nations?

Mass immigration of poor people into a richer country is essentially a class war on the working class of the country.
The thing that annoys me about the xenophobia/afrophobia chats is that they call us coons but when they get here, they don't join us in our struggles against white economic domination. They don't believe in our hard fought labour laws or the right to black dignity. They're

Nothing extraordinary about what he’s saying in the Ghanaian context.
The Ghanaian Christian especially charismatics/pentecostals often pray for the laws not to apply to them and to always be the exception.
They call it “grace”.
This Salifu guy has often placed himself above the law. Now, his son is responsible for the east legon deaths yesterday. Such as lawless family!

One of the devastating but underrated consequences of corruption in poor countries, is that it leads the population to believe they are rich and their poverty is just mismanagement which primes them for populist, distributionist policies which further impoverishes them..
naaaa, i have to stop looking into this PPA data.
how can you tell me that we bought 400 bags of cocoa fertilizer for $12,852,000 in 2019?
how can you tell me GETFund spent GHS 830,755 for 1 year marketing strategy from Samuel Hogbah's William Media Group?

Old World vs New World.
One will be Brazilian if they are born and raised there regardless of ethnicity while good luck trying that out in Kazakhstan.
2nd gen ethnic Russians are still not Kazakhs.
This is my favorite thing about the US. I learned how special it is on a Friday night while living in Copenhagen.
I had met an attractive girl about my age on the street.
In a feeble attempt to flirt, I asked her where she was from.
“I’m from Turkey,” she said…

Blackpill for the week:
Anyone who wishes to migrate/has migrated to another country reveals their preference to be ruled by another people not their own, it doesn’t matter what they say.
The number of African who want to migrate should make us question our sacred cows.
Many AFRICAN countries should have remained colonized.
"But but but what of national pride??"
Well most of the people in those countries are risking death to go to European countries anyway. 🤷♂️

Let’s be real. What’s the point of learning Xhosa in a globally competitive world where English is the lingua franca and fluency in it is rewarded with opportunities?
If SA were a trillion dollar economy, no one will be forcing anyone to learn their home language.
Failure to learn your home language is a sign of parental neglect. I went to English speaking schools all my life, often as the only black child in the class, kodwa isixhosa sikhona. Your kids are raised by phones and tablets. Paw Patrol won't teach them their mother tongue.

If the black community had some self respect, we would be boycotting black commercial artistes who normalise the use of the N-word with their art.
It’s not about the N word. Never been.
It’s about the “weak” enjoying the cope of “imposing” their will on the “strong”.
Doja Cat had to set the Caucasian people in the audience straight before performing “Ain’t Sh*t.”

African societies or African urban societies were not communal. They were heavily stratified along class lines just like African power structures
Most of Africa was rural however and all rural village’s almost everywhere are communal..
I can’t reconcile the two ideas that African societies were evidently very communal less than a 100 years ago and the current need of African politicians to acquire and hoard wealth to the detriment of the whole community. Is it the influence of consumerism, capitalism? Wtf is it

A better example is North Korea. Under communism with a GDP per capita around $1500- lower than Ghana.
Yet they have the technological, industrial and social foundation laid out. What is missing is the economic system.
One will be silly to think they are our mates.

This is like comparing your Culture and Level with Italian culture and level because there was a time when poor Italians were migrating to the US
If Greece is considered poor today, you think it means you have similar foundation levels to build from?

Tbh, I believe the issue lies not with the parties themselves but with the leaders who shape them in their own image.
Thus, while the party names may remain the same, their practices can become fundamentally different in line with their leaders.
