This is the reason why I’m proud of her. If you notice - all her outfits are predominantly African - her hair - natural african, her face everything odds natural. This woman is a silent warrior - a role model for the younger generation. This is what the fight for the betterment of our continent looks like. Kudos. Ps that last video - gentrification - got me to finally hit the subscribe button. That was excellent. We also want to see the struggles of our people so we can think of the solutions.

I have no idea how I ended up on this channel, but I'm really glad I did. I had no particular interest in Ghana, I barely knew Accra is the capital, but now all I can think about all day is Ghana, what an amazing country, I watch videos about Ghana everyday, it's like I'm on a geography assignment or something, I know there's a magnitude of data and shades of grey I will probably not grasp in this lifetime, but I really did develop a connection to this country thanks to you, Vanessa. My dream now is to visit Ghana and the Ivory Coast, not sure when that's gonna happen as my health hasn't been great as of late but I will focus my thoughts on this until I'm able to manifest! Much love from a Brazilian lady :-)

My wife and I are in the planning stages of moving and my son plans to move once he has established his career...so Mr Kojo please hold the fort until we get there...lol

It's obvious that he is very talented. He is also fortunate to boot. The fact is that his father handed over to him two major assets, which gives him a headstart. Some of us had to grind to secure what we have. My father never gave me any property. I pulled myself by my boot straps to own the two properties that I have since returning to Ghana from the States, after living there for 30 years. More grease to his elbows though.

@@nasto4u850 to be honest - I’m already there because I started a construction project early this year. However in terms of physically coming down. Off and on this year and next year should be more often. Since 14 years of age I have been planning how to come to Africa to create industries, jobs, training and development opportunities especially for our young as well as our disadvantaged people . I started a social enterprise here in the U.K. a few years ago to setup a blueprint of how the whole thing will work. When I come I don’t want to waste any time - so I need to put some foundations in place first 😀 Blessings.

Great and love what you are bringing to young Africans, albeit the Ghanian’s youth, Vanessa. Your Dad should be proud of you. I am too. As regards the building, I think a modern design/aesthetic burglary bars on the windows would make a lot of difference and enhances the curb appeal. The current existing design (painted white) really takes away from the building. He should consider replacing them. He needs to add some (metal) railings (to approx 42in high) to the top floor balcony/patio where he was talking to Vanessa, because the concrete railing is too low. The bottom of the concrete railing also needs inserted railing too, to prevent a child sliding underneath and fall.
