Ghana President approves visa free entry to Ghana for all Africans paving way for Borderless Africa

[@apolokaggwa7619]

Most Ghanaians I have met are forward-looking, unflappable, soft-spoken but quietly effective. I found them much easier to get along with. Some people may not remember that they were the first west African country to gain independence from the UK in 1957. They have always had a vision for Africa much bigger than all of us. Remember Dr. Kwame Nkrumah? Therefore, I am not surprised at all that their President is in the forefront once again with this "visa free entry" policy, along with four of five other African countries. It may turn out to be a progressive policy indeed. Well done, Dr. Nana Akufo-Addo.

Borderless Africa for Africans. Internal Economic growth and manufacturing. Break the border chains. Wonderful gesture; the continent of Africa is one; visa requirements amongst its own local people should have never existed. The mechanics can be ironed out with ease, if the African leaders think of their African people first. Hope it works well for the continent of Arica. Well Done President of Ghana.

No visa but there should be screening background check online before travel. Install a online system for registration before the free movement start on the continent, it will track the illegal people in the online registration system that is in place to keep people movement in safe control.
