[@JasmineAmaa]

My Grandma is 87years for all those asking ❤️❤️

[@usandoelweb2428]

Nice to see that your roots make you stronger in many ways Sweet Beautiful Jasmine! Blessings all the way to you and your loved ones Sweet Beautiful Jasmine!🌹🌹🌹🌹💐

[@Joe-lg1zy]

You are so blessed to have her . And she is so blessed that at her age she looks so good and healthy. I wish I could have such conversations with my grandma .

[@myrtisallotey8928]

She looks 😃 great.

[@angulaaagula5926]

Long live Grandma ,150years old

[@stanleyglover5534]

She’s good as gold, her cognitive power is in great shape. She probably reads books also, Ghanaian society does not discriminate against the aged, you’re always a valued and revered member in your community . That helps !

[@myworld7286]

Who is here watching this video with Grandma after watching her funeral service. Rest in Peace Grandma 👼🏾 💔

[@SweetAdjeley]

I truly enjoyed this and didn’t want it to end your grandma is so beautiful and so well spoken please give her all the love and kisses for me OK mama 😘✌🏽❤️❤️❤️

[@JasmineAmaa]

Aw thanks Sweet ❤️❤️

[@emmawhereau]

I felt the same. I wish she could talk more. I had to watch it two times.

[@TommyWilson-b6c]

I worked at Kaiser Engineers, we built Valco. Your grandmother is older than me , I left Ghana 1969 to USA.

[@b.anthony8592]

Your grandma is alert and intelligent! May she live many more years!

[@majidagadu5958]

Amen, Amen🙌🙏😇🇬🇧🇬🇭

[@emmawhereau]

Amen 🙏 🥰

[@eve954]

She was so sweet 😢

[@thecollinsobengmarnu]

I knew your grandma at VALCO, Tema when I was posted there in 1985-1987 for my National Service. She was the Chief Nurse, then. She is a kind hearted and dedicated nurse. I remember her for giving me "ofam" to eat when I told her I was hungry while going to see the doctor at the VALCO Hospital. My greetings to her. Respect!

[@champeleannan5647]

Love your Grandmother. She's an educated woman with her fluent English. She has a very good memory. God has really blessed her. Grandma God bless your heart AMEN

[@abduleleshin4274]

There are signs of wisdom on her face.Everything she says comes from her life experience.we are lucky to have her around.

[@r.candice8080]

Ghanaians have this Loveliness about them from the oldest to the youngest. Not saying that everyone is Great but the Personalities that I have seen thus far from the Ghana People I fall in love every time. Thank you so much for Sharing and thank your Grandmother as well. Much Love

[@robertkonadu]

People in Ghana has always been very nice until recently. Because of poor governance most people are broke and get upset at things they normally wouldn't have.

[@Afrikaislife]

I agree. The majority of people I met in Ghana, were really nice people. I travelled solo.

[@a.konadu4010]

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@golda.k]

My dad send me this video full of joy ! Your grandma is my grandma’s blood cousin. His grandfather is Nana Opong. It’s such a small world and my dad was so happy to know your grandma is alive and well. She looked after my dad when he was younger and lives in the same house ! He remembers your mum too. It would be great to stay in touch. So happy to know I have a blessed family ❤

[@JasmineAmaa]

Oh how lovely. Will love to ❤️❤️

[@lifeisablessing247]

Your grandmother is a very wise woman; she speaks as though she has been wise from very young. It's a blessing to be in the presences of elders with wisdom like hers. ❤❤❤

[@lordm.a114]

wish her more years and also you are breathtaking... like your enerygy and laugh....That was imaculate

[@elephanthappiness4502]

Jasmine is your granny your paternal grandmother. I asked because you have a strong resemblance to both your dad and granny. My granny died at the age of just under a 100. I loved very much as she raised me and my other immediate siblings. She was a Carib.

[@acajudi100]

I am 79, and I love you and your grandmother. Thank you for sharing. A little about me. I have been coming to Mexico, mainly Acapulco since 1962. I do speak Spanish as a second language. I moved permanently to Queretaro, Mexico on 11-2-2021 at 79 . I moved because of the deadly crimes and the rents, utilities etc. taking almost all of my retirement income. It is safer, beautiful and cleaner here, and $850 per month less expensive. There is not any shortage or limits on food, and I use home delivery, as I did in the USA . I use Amazon-Mexico to order the foods, that i miss from the USA, and are not sold here. Grits, Louisiana hot sauce, Hormel Beef tamales, Libby's Corn Beef hash, Red chili flakes, and Campbell's chicken noodle soup.. Pork is all that I do not eat, and I cook 99% of my food. Butterball has the best turkey bacon! The earthquakes were the deal breakers for Acapulco, but I will always love her. Grilled Red Snapper and Pollo Felez are my favorite foods, that I order for take out. My apartment has a fantastic view of all of Queretaro, all utilities and WiFi, maid service, and 100% furnished with everything, and a beloved king size bed, like at home. I am working on my temp retirement visa, since I did get 180 days, but at this age, I do not want to do visa runs, and never know how many days I will get. It is better, if you can to get the temp retirement visa. God bless the world,and please behave. Hands are for helping and not hurting. Put a d before anger, and you get deadly danger. Do not argue! No one can ride your back, unless you bend over. Only the strong survives. Treat everyone, the way you want to be treated. Karma never loses an address, and we will reap what we have sown. DO THE RIGHT THING ALWAYS!

[@jamesbedukodjograham5508]

Old Mexican I am truly in awe of your wisdom and advice. May you love to be 100 at least and this lifetime has been worth it,

[@benedictanyanteh6489]

Wow grandma is so alert. You look just like her. God bless.

[@dorcasopoku5152]

You really look like ya grandma. We are also from Abetifi my grandma died at age 100 at Abetifi Kwahu 2yrs ago she might know her. Grandma is still strong

[@JasmineAmaa]

U r right, she probably does. They all know each other x

[@sandraetrue-ellis7914]

Love her outfit and lipgloss. Tell Grandma she's such a lady and I admire her so much.

[@traceyeffah4251]

Educated grandma. Very rare. Respect to her.

[@f6876]

Grandma is smart and wise ❤️

[@kofiasamoah6867]

Resemblance paaa. She is such a blessing

[@Sincerelyshawny]

Your laugh and your smile is all of nana's. If I can add though, I do wish the question came a bit slower so I could soak it all in more. I love chatting with the elderly. The stories they have to tell. One day you'll look back on this video and be glad you did it. Continue to do these with her even if it's for your eyes only ❤

[@JasmineAmaa]

Okay thanks for recommendation Chantell 💜

[@smadden3933]

Your granny is lit 🔥

[@torgbortheresa8220]

I know realized where your intelligence comes from, Ama your Grandma is so sweet and intelligent love her so much Want to meet her personally Ama arrange that Thanks 🙏🙏👍

[@deoasubo2765]

I did a thumbs up before I even started watching, just to show appreciation to grandma for giving us her time. 😊

[@MickeyAgyei]

Wow seems like grandma was one of the posh people of old. She is alert. Seems to me that Jasmine is benefiting from generational wealth...and I'm not talking about money and material things. I mean intelligence..

[@cyeb845]

Your grandmother reminds me so much of my Nana! Continue to soak up all the knowledge that she gives you. I remember as a child, sitting on the floor as my Nana told stories of her childhood. Much love Grandma.

[@vincentiaquansah2608]

Wow the video was posted on 2/2/22, 22:22 minutes long and the time I watched it... it said it was posted 2 hours ago lol

[@JasmineAmaa]

Crazyy

[@hildakay]

We’ve finally met Grandma🥰🥰

[@JasmineAmaa]

Yesoo

[@livingfinance]

It’s lovely to see her and you look radiant.

[@beverly6294]

Grandma is sooo adorable, i just want to give her a biiiiig hug!!! 😍

[@achiaaobeng100]

All the nurses in house 👐 for grandma, God bless you and Grandma 🙏

[@JackyHapy]

Watching this makes me wish I knew my Grandma. Our lineage is Ghanaian (as told to my mum by my Grandfather). Your Grandma is just lovely, so sweet and encouraging. ❤️❤️

[@dannyel1]

Our culture is such that it takes a whole village to raise a child. She spoke directly to me.

[@a.konadu4010]

Wo se no paa😊 I love seeing such an educated female of that generation. Both my grandparents were illiterate. I'm a registered nurse too Nana 🙏🏾 Grandma's role at Valco was the Occupational Health Nurse of today...wow!!

[@stanleyglover5534]

Beautiful conversation, it’s like reading a book about the beginnings of our country. I love her thinking, she is very open minded and accepting about most things today despite the gap between the time she grew up in Ghana and today’s Ghana . We truly appreciate her insight and inspiration 🇬🇭

[@ronniechung6674]

Yes, she is a wise woman. Great answer regarding if it would be different living in London all this time vs Ghana ... she doesn't know, and that's the truth! People move or return for a variety of reasons.

[@blackjacks5829]

Which I was younger. Never considered going to Ghana before. Jasmine would be just the woman for me - bright, beautiful, industrious. C'est la vie.

[@kuukuaocansey2940]

Awww Jasmine, enjoy grandma whiles you can, how I miss mine? I love your grandma’s sharpness and alertness. My uncle was a doctor with VALCO also. I so remember those days in Tema!!

[@JasmineAmaa]

Ohh lovely

[@Zero-hl2zy]

That was very beautiful and excellent conversation with your grandmother good job ❤👍👍👍

[@katiusbabe]

I like your grandma, makes me miss mine.🥺

[@alexisreavis7239]

Hi hi Jasmine. I very much enjoyed your interview with your grandmother. I hope she knows how blessed she is to still be in her right mind. There's such an epidemic of Alzheimer's and Dementia in the United States. I don't know if it's like that in other countries. I take care of my 83 year-old mom who has Alzheimer's. How I wish that she was still in her right mind because she is so well loved by so many people. She is a mom, a grandmother, great-grandmother and also a great great grandmother but she doesn't even know it anymore. I'm so glad that you still have your grandmother with you and that you can have the kind of conversations that you shared. I hope to see more of your grandmother to be honest. I'd like you to pick her brain about so many things. We need the wisdom of the aged. Thank you for sharing your grandmother with the world.

[@rainbow3649]

Fortunately, alzheimers or dementia is not too common in Africa tho! My mom lived to 97, a bit slower on her feet, but sharp as a tack.. it was so weird. We called her Benjamin button, becks she aged almost backwards. She just went to bed and didnt wake up for her 6am morning tea..that's it! We, unfortunately living in the western world should be that lucky, right! Dementia was so rare when I was growing up in Ghana,,,but now, I think the numbers are growing a little bit. We attribute it to environmental developments, radiation everywhere, and unfortunately we have allowed our agricultural fields to be polluted with chemicals too. Our farmers have been influenced.. The plants are getting doctored with chemicals etc. Even cancer, when I was growing up in Ghana, we never heard of cancer. I only heard of it because I come from a heavily medical family, mostly trained overseas and came back home to practice, but the ones trained in Ghana, never even mentioned it. If it existed, we never heard of it, but now, a few numbers starting to come up, and the people are still not well "versed" with it! Isnt this interesting? I live in New York now, and boy do I know these two diseases well. I just finished chemotherapy and radiation, tho cancer has never happened in the family, none of my family members back home, and I take care of the elderly here, so I KNOW the damn dementia too well! I detest it for what it does to perfectly decent people, and their families! I call it the silent thief, or the common, "long goodbye!" I just lost one of my favourite patients ever, last year. Had him for 4 yrs, and watched his mind steal his vocabulary, for someone who loved to talk and sing, a very talented stage performer. Song and dance man, so go figure! We danced a lot in the beginning, but gradually he just wanted to just sit and not to be bothered much. We would sing aloud to the radio when we drive, with everyone waving at us. We would just break into dance together in the supermarket, to thunderous applause, until he didnt care anymore!;He made me cry a lot, I'm just so sorry about your mom, sis! Just take it ine day at a time, and try to meet her wherever she is! Not easy! God be with u and the family. Hope he gives u strength each day!

[@alexisreavis7239]

Wow thank you so much rainbow I really appreciate your words and sorry about the chemo and stuff you've had to go through. I don't know how you can live in New York but more power to you. My late father lived in Brooklyn. I grew up in New Jersey but so glad to be in Virginia right now and have been for most of my married life. Unfortunately this pandemic has reached just about every continent in the world. Please stay as safe as you can and double up on your immune boosters.

[@donnadecoteau1597]

[@lovinlifewithlaine]

Another great journalistic interview. U studied social work, and it has prepared you to be a great journalist. Bravo. Excellent interview. Grandma's wisdom and intelligence is very evident in how she articulates her experience. Grandma dispels many stereotypes of West African women. Love this. Plz thank her for us younger women because she is a pioneer for those to follow her. Thank you Grandma.

[@watchit16]

You have an adorable grandma full of life and wisdom. She's so right about coming back to Ghana after spending some time abroad to help build the country. May God continue to bless her for all her good deeds and may she continue to live for many more years in good health and happiness

[@kanti8942]

In those days Ghanaians who go abroad to study came back home after their studies because the economy then was comparable to a lot of European countries. What was then is what is now in some Southern African countries. Western governments interference and obstructions is what have retarded our development which let many Africans end up staying in Western countries after their training

[@MildlyInfuriating]

Wow!!!!!! I pray to Almighty God 🙏 for a long life like her and strong and fit 🙏 💪

[@hahaha70263]

So we finally get to see your grandmother. She's funny and full of wisdom. Also, Jasmine, you're looking good. Love the hairstyle and your smile (of course).
