More power to you girl, living in Ghana I don’t know how you do it, people can be extremely nice but extremely rude and you know this voodoo thing is so serious everything that’s wrong with you somebody must be doing it to you, but we thank God that he protects us in Ghana and you know that’s our home so we got to love it no matter what but hey girl you are holding it down and I’m just super proud of you❤️❤️❤️

You are absolutely right . I have been saying the same thing . Ghanaians will blame every mishap on some Witchcraft , devil, etc. Even when their old cars keep breaking down ,it is someone in the family who doesn't want them to prosper. Meanwhile they won't service that car for years. They don't think on how to solve problems. They will always shift the blame on what they call ' spiritual ' .

A real picture of realities. Welcome to Ghana 🇬🇭 the land of our forefathers. I also think 💭 Ghana 🇬🇭 is the best place to raise kids under both parents and a good community that looks out for each other. Well done 👍🏿 on this video

@@Glass_Nkoaa i wouldn't know because I've never lived in an English countryside and never considered living there but I have been to Ghana twice and I loved it. Ghana is not for everyone but there are over 50 countries in Africa and each one has its own charm. Please don't go to Ghana or any other African country looking for the African version of America. If that is what you're looking for you will be disappointed. Go with an open mind. Ghana is nothing like America or Europe and it does have challenges but if you do your research and know what to expect you'll have a better chance of having an enjoyable experience .

I have yet to hear a single vlogger who does that. Maya for example believes, and correctly so, that the narrative about Africa has been one-sided, all negative, and is on a mission to show the positive side too. That's not denying that challenges exist. How can there not be challenges in a developing African country that has a different culture?

Your observations about challenges living in Ghana are identical to those obtaining in Uganda. Things like preferential treatment of people based on looks, wealth, tribe; unnecessary bureaucracy, integrity, poor customer service, rudeness are some of the hallmarks that pervade the African reality!

I think we moved to Ghana around same time. I recently have started noticing a lot of challenges that I didn’t see before. When I was moving to Ghana there were lots of videos showing only the beauty of Ghana and not the challenges so I wasn’t really aware of what was ahead of me which I wish I knew. I think I would have still choose Ghana but would have been planned my move differently. I think this video will help a lot of people who are planning to move to Ghana:)

Until we fix our deficient leadership problem, invest in our people (esp. regarding quality education), decolonize our mindsets, and work smarter to create efficient and accountable systems that work for the average person in our society, these challenges will persist, sadly. Ultimately, it all comes down to leadership -- at all levels/areas, not just political. Can we fix Ghana? Yes, we can! I'm hopeful.

Integrity is also a problem in Cameroon. People's poor mindset is really what makes it difficult to live in Africa. Apart from that, the food and the weather makes the living more bearable....

girrrrlllll you betta preach! i was in ghana in august of this year, and let me tell you, my whole perspective changed. dont get me wrong, it was beautiful, and i had a good time; however, the shitty attitudes of both men and women, more so the men in my experience, was so horrible, i literally did not want to leave my hotel. i wanted to avoid all contact with the locals. but the absolute deal breaker was the level of poverty that drove ppl to blatantly exploit me was so egregious, it was hard to fathom. many times, it became difficult to handle and accept. i was literally stared up and down by ppl trying to gage if i had money. and as soon as they heard my accent, it was over, they pounced!!! i didnt feel comfortable trusting anyone, cuz i knew their kindness was not sincere. they were only being nice to get money from me. and just like you said, there is no real sense of integrity or morals, but yet, God’s name is always coming outta somebody’s mouth to use in some manipulative way…such blasphemy! i’d be happy to do an interview to talk about my experiences if you’d like. anyhoo, enjoy your vacay and safe travels!

Oftentimes we do not like to mention the negatives about the countries we are born, raised or live in, for various reasons. Yet it is clear to me that when we can look at what we love and critique it positively, it is a big bonus for the ears that want to hear and act upon what they hear, and the one who speaks from that place of love. Wow your colour schemes in the video are fantastic great production.

I can relate to all that you are saying Jasmine. It has been a problem in Ghana and the economic situation now does not make it any better. I am a Ghanaian who has relocated to Denmark, and only goes to Ghana for some holidays. The superstitions are too much and time conciousness is another factor. I agree with you on how gullible people are to accept things they see as being real. Religion is used to keep people from realising their potentials and doing well in life.

Hi, Sister Ama I hope you’re well? You are right that living in 🇬🇭is not for everyone. It’s so expensive our homes in 🇬🇭but also most of our people from 🇬🇭are selfish greedy and dishonest. Yes 🇬🇭is nice but you are going to meet challenges. I have been to 🇬🇭four times, in two years time am hoping to travel again to 🇬🇭

this video is on POINT!!! Too many people want to sweep these facts under the rug and pretend it’s all good. I wish they would stop campaigning and inviting Diasporans “home” to deal with this type of chaos. Unfortunately, so many people think the grass is greener on the other side. The high level of stress adds up and doesn’t create a healthy balance. I can’t imagine coming home to the place of my Ancestors and being treated like this. Ghana needs to stop gaslighting Diasporans for investment purposes and fix these critical issues. It’s not worth the time, money, or negative vibes. Please consider creating a Part 2.

@@VanessaKanbi Wow! This sounds like Atlanta. Where’s my ATL people? Driving from Atlanta to Marietta on Interstate 75 ain’t no joke. 4 hours for a 20 minutes ride. Subject of tipping: In America we normally tip 20%. I’ll take my wife to dinner and pay $100 for dinner, tipping them $20. When in Ghana I took my family out to dinner and tipped them 20% of our bill. The Ghanaian man literally had tears in his eyes because he was expecting 20 Cedi which is $3.26. We stayed close to Capitol Grill near the Embassy. I saw how the Europeans took big advantage of the Ghanaian giving them just 20 Cedi on the average, knowing that’s not right. I can’t treat my people like that they deserve better. My point is, traffic is bad in Atlanta too. People judge you on how you dress and look in the United States as well. You think Black women in America don’t have attitude? 😂 I hear you and feel your bitterness towards Ghana. I have the same bitterness about my enslavement of America. May 27th 2021, Memorial Day in America 🇺🇸 8 people were shot and killed in Atlanta. Not one person in the whole country of Ghana 🇬🇭 was shot and killed. Yes, Ghana doesn’t have the infrastructure of the West. Please believe me when I say, Africa is the future. One Love Jasmine ❤️ I will say this, you were the only person that got back in touch with me when I was coming to Ghana. I reached out to a few KZbinrs. (Wode Maya) & (Stella Shanelly), no problem though I know people are busy. We could have had a great interview about the medical clinics OB/GYN, we planned to open in Accra. Peace ☮️ & LOVE.

Youve made some excellent points. Thanks for sharing. I remember when I was in Ghana and giving to the beggars on the street my family tried to stop me saying the poor were unjust people who would curse me. I m thinking how stupid...if they had any power to do anything they would use it for themselves🤦🏾‍♀️. That is another thing I find difficult with Ghanaians...we aren't very charitable. Growing up in a poor family and going to Secondary school as a boarder in GH...I was teased and ridiculed for not having as much as some of my classmates. In the west...that would not happen.
