WHY SHE LEFT GHANA AND MOVED TO JAPAN.. it's not why you think | Japanese Ghanaian | Living in Ghana

[@ginacoleman788]

After watching lots of KZbin videos, I see the challenges, and there are many. My prayer for Ghana is the country continues to grow while maintaining their wonderful culture.

[@oceejekwam6829]

Marintia is very open and frank. We pray for a complete recovery. Many people would "gloss over" over the health challenges to cover their vulnerability. Full credit to Marintia.

[@ghanafo]

My Prayer goes out to Marintia, with excellent health and peace of mind, let God come through for you ma dear. Happy to see you guys again. Love ya

[@kwadjoekaya6559]

Thank you ladies (Anna, Eiko, Vanessa, and the other one) among other Ghanaian diasporan children for promoting Ghana in early 2020s- 2022. Your country, Ghana, really appreciates you (I know you are both mixed race kids, nonetheless Ghanaians anyway). Eiko, your mom heard the statement (drinking).....lol I worked for a Japanese company for nearly 10 years in US and visited Tokyo quite often, so I'm familiar with the culture, including the work ethics.

Great video Ladies. Just my two cents from personal experience: 1) Your health issues can be resolved if you change your diet. Check out Dr Ken Berry videos.

Ghan had more rubbish at the start of Nana Akufo “ Year of Return.” Accra was dry, dusty and teaming with piles of garbage heaps. It was void of greenery. The beaches were used as defacation sites. There were discarded rags, from the unsellable piles of used exported clothing to Ghana from the West, rooted into the sands. They were waving like dirty weathered flags in the winds as the waves crashed on the beaches. Green, lush tres was far and few in between. As a result, Accra was hotter than it would have otherwise be with more vegetation. The foreign Utubers videos didn’t lie. Also, the markets, especially the outdoor market had garbage accumulation. Then, there were the garbage piles where toxic metals were burning with trash. Poor young men extracted pieces of metals. They would sell them to make a quick dollar or formed the metal into a piece of craft to sell. There dirty gutters were another eye soar of trash and disease. Even stray cows were indulging in the city garbage piles. Nana Akufo, your president, was genius when came up with “The year of return -2019.” Ghana bank millions of tourism dollars as a result. Akufo destroyed the shanty shacks while getting rid of piles of garbage. He encouraged the planting of a million trees. A contingency of Ghanaians when to Rwanda to observe and took notes of city planning with improve sanitation. Today Ghana has improved significantly. I have been observing since 3018. Maybe Ghana has needs to improve its waste management. However, it has significantly its garbage situation. Accra appears greener, cleaner and more developed.

[@kgravgrav8496]

It is very filthy. I don’t want to compare it to any other country I just want to say that it is filthy and needs cleaning up it spoils the look of ghana. Especially when you go to lapaz and there are people selling things on the pavement with heaps of rubbish smelly drainage. My comment is towards better development of the country. When other leaders come and see this they question how people can live like that.

@@VanessaKanbithank you for your response.
