Year of Return: 126 African Diasporans granted Ghanaian Citizenship

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, on Wednesday, 27th November 2019, conferred Ghanaian citizenship on 126 Diasporans. The ceremony being part of the series of activities commemorating the ‘Year of Return’, the President stated that Ghana recognizes her position as the location for 75 per cent of the slave dungeons built on the West coast of Africa, through which the slaves were transported and it was time to grant the wishes of many who have returned and are contributing to Ghana's development in diverse ways.

[@leighgoodwinmba2702]

Interesting comment.

[@Sheppesh]

Leigh Goodwin, MBA, for us it’s too much to simply enter a stupid store to be watched from entrance to exit, all disguised as “customer service” in most cases. I’m sure no black Americans are leaving the U.S. for this reason but I’m certain, given the all too frequent experience, they definitely think about it. When I travel outside the United States I definitely feel and witness the difference. That’s a fact!
