  • Ghana is a beautiful country, because I have lived there twice.

    I went to school over there as well.

    There's a lot happening in Ghana and it is up to us to comeback to our original roots again.

  • i love this video.it reveals the Ghanaian society.There're rich people living extremely comfortable and there're the poor ones,who struggle for a meal and nowhere to look for help.Dank u well.

  • Im looking foward 2 visit Ghana....thanx 2 u...

  • To be honest I hated the fucking vid. I was born in and live in the United States. And I studied all the histories in school, and after learning what white people did to the Indians, I honestly cannot wait until somebody like China or one of these Islam nations just torture and destroy white folks. I also am kinda glad "white" countries excluding USA (Indian land), is suffering so because of all the money they stole from Africa, and wasted. GET THE HELL OUT OF GHANA, bitch.

  • @princerasta1982. Clearly you didn't really pay too much attention to "all the histories in school" that you studied... A 28 year old talking such ignorant bullshit. You are the reason racism is still very much alive, because you fabricate hatred and divisions where there aren't any. Please stay in the USA, and don't stray too far from your neck of the woods. Wouldn't want your drivel to spread....

  • @dbonnardeaux It's not even worth it to waste time with people like that. They are the kind of people if given the chance will set Africa back with their hate and ignorance. I spent a majority of my childhood in Ghana before I moved to the states. I hope you had a wonderful time in Ghana.

  • @dbonnardeaux yh i wouldnt want that either

  • woaaah whats with all the negative comments! this man was kind enough to post a video to show the beauty of Ghana, well i thank ya for showing us all this video, im going soon for a vacation to see some friends, SUPER excited :D

  • @UFCNUTTA Enjoy! Ghana is such a vibrant and wonderful country, with wonderful people. Shame about the World Cup though. They were robbed. should have been in the semis for sure. And who knows what might have happened there... and all this without Michael Essien playing, and little time for Sully Muntari... amazing.

  • Who did you work for?

  • @dragon1464 I worked for CARE International on youth and women issues, then a EU-funded project working with smallholder farms to increase their income, then USAID on community-based ecotourism projects.

  • Oh yeah, that's your residence? I went to school in Cantonments--Ghana International School. I'm sure you know it. Chaley, you obruni are rich oh with your generators and luxury living. LOL

  • Ha, that was our residence, but provided by my wife's employer. Same with the furniture. We would never be able to live like that anywhere! I know, the generator was overkill. I saw the hotel in Lake Bosumtwi with the same sized generator catering for 30 rooms!!!

  • You could say the generator is overkill and then again you could say it was "needed". It depends on what kind of lifestyle you want and can afford. Of course, most Ghanaians don't have one but may middle class Ghanaians do. The generator at the hotel you saw could be one that only generates enough electricity for lights but not enough for air condition and other things, thus the generator could be only generating electricity to certain circuits and not others. It's quite complicated.

  • I've stayed in places in Ghana before where the generator only minimally provided electricity to the necessities but not others when the power was out. And as you may have experienced, even big city Accra experiences electricity and water outage on a regular and frequent basis.

  • i went to school in Cantonments too, Morning Star School, is it in the same area?

  • Of course in the same area. Morning Start School and GIS are in the same area! :)

  • I like the song ,what song is it?

  • Damon Albarn (from Blur) did an album called Mali Music. Very good. I assume you mean that one and not the poppy one by the All Saints, Pure Shores....

  • Oh my beautiful city of Accra and the fantastic Ghanians! I lived in Accra for 7 years - miss Accra and the peaceful Ghanian people so much!

  • I never got an answer KIMOOZ11. Where do YOU live? All this talk of "white man out of Africa." Have you noticed how so many Africans want to LEAVE for "white mans countries"? If I hazard a guess, I think you are living a nice life in the UK or US... hypocritical. Go back to Africa and work towards the economic freedom of your brothers if you really care. Stop hating us for trying to help. Its counter-productive.

  • Dont mind them. I am Ghanian and we love all people. Those who are hating on you are people who live outside Ghana. Ghanians are very friendly. We appreciate all your doing in Ghana. God bless you.

  • I never imagined putting up an innocuous video of Ghana would create such rage! Only trying to show the beauty of the country. All this "get the white man out of africa" and "black people are shoved into ghettos"... "honkeys treated as royalty"... I saw many more Ghanaians driving pimped out VW Touaregs, Audis, Range Rovers than white people in Accra. In many cases, white people working in development cared more about the poor of Ghana than the well-off Ghanaian living the high life....

  • honkeys can live anywhere in the world, & be treated like royality. But blacks are always shoved in to ghettos & put in positions where they cant call the shots!!

    whats up with that ??????

  • OMG I hope your not Ghanian talking like a racist asshole. Ghanians are very friendly. Ghanians are not racist so shut the fuck up. Maybe you should leave ghana.

  • yes Indeed Bob marley also said "We gonna chase these crazy Bald head out of town"...I dont care for pink froks nor frank.

  • You are right I've been to Ghana twice I avoid the white expats as much as possible they always talk. Unsubstanciated shit.

  • i must say I am pleasantly surprised. Most people would have focused on the negative...your video shows the beauty that is bountiful in Ghana

  • I beg the question KIMOOZ11: where do you live? And why such rage?? Clearly are NOT Ghanaian, as they are a lovely people. And wasn't it Pink Floyd that said, "We don't need your education..."?! I think Bob Marley said, "We don't need.. no more trouble." EXACTLY!

  • Nice to see some footage of my homeland,

    Thx for your compilation. Keep up the good work. No matter where you are, it is all about making meaningful contributions.

  • There poor farmers everywhere in the world, how come your not helping the mexicans farmers in the united states or the immigrants workers in europe where you belong..I just dont want to see white ppl in africa..if you are white and you care about africa which is BULL!! go tell the white ppl in south africa to get out once and for all.

  • But like Bob marley said we dont need your education...there poor farmers everywhere in the wolrd, how come your not helping the mexicans farmers in the united states or the immigrants workers in europe where you belong..I just dont want to see white ppl in africa..if you are white and you care about africa which is BULL!! go tell the white ppl in south africa to get out once and for all.

  • I am educating black ppl to be aware of the modern ku kus clan....white ppl are always envious and always feel they smarter than us..

  • I'm White.. I'm going to Accra in February! I'M SO VERY EXCITED!!! :-D

  • guys.i worked i nigeria for 5 months.i am from romania.its very dangerous there.specially lagos.but two of my colleagues were from accra.very nice guys.i saw the difference between nigerians and ghanians.i'd like to find a job in accra.god bless you

  • Abeg shut up your mouth. How can you come here and insult Nigerians like this? Do you know every nigerians and every ghanian? So how can you make sure a statement? You can yarn such rubbish now, but in naija you no go yarn such a thing. Cause those area boys, especially in lagos go kill you. Abeg my guy, don't insult my country like that again.

  • hahahah you must be nigerian... if you dont like his comments ignore him

  • i have been telling people about us ghanaians and nigerians. we tend to be bunched into one

  • why is that white people hate us are all over afrika.

  • I don't hate africans, or black people for that matter! What's wrong with you guys?! I love Ghana, GHanaians and I am working here to improve livelihoods of poor rural farmers. What are YOU doing KIMOOZ for your people? ANd you Sundiata??

  • Don't worry about Sundiata. Im black and as long as you guys are doing good things there than Im all for it. God Bless You.

  • white ppl get out of africa! we dont need you there

  • thanks. v constructive. pleasant. and where might you be right now Kimooz1?

  • lol!...hey i used to think dat way b4...but some white people are nice..dont be mean!

  • it is a good chance that us ghanaian would never say such hateful words to others. i believe you are not ghanaians or you have been inslaved and refused to look ahead to insure that the mistake do not accure again.

    you have hated a larg breed of humans just because of what some did compare to the larg amount that have faught but never was writen.

    you hate someone so much that you will become them. take it easy no worries we all siblings^-^ okay

  • Akwabba...

  • I've stayed in Accra for 4 years , It's beautiful , Thnx for the post !!!!!

  • yea!

  • Very Good!

  • thanks! check out Ghana: Diamond in the Rough. Much more there, and getting the hang of this video editing.

  • wow that was very nice...my film of Accra would b named Pitch Black because of all the darkness I was in when the generators didnt work....

  • Is ghana really that poor then why americans relocate there?? Trying to decide between ghana and ivory coast heard ivory coast a lot richer.

  • you are very stupid some parts are even nicer than places here in the united states nd u also have ur freedom and peace of mind thats y people mave from the us to Ghana..stupid...u call yourself rich but yet still you ask for quarters on the streets nd at the subs.u dont even wash ur cloths nor take a bath.ur streets are dirty nd your houses are shabby.next time think before u talk

  • I apologize didn't say that to be offensive. Raise here in usa often say harsh things without realizing it. Besides had a dna test done 2 weeks ago am descendant from ghana as other things. Love Africa what I meant Ghana and Africa is potrayed as poor and unliveable by western media yet many people who go there relocate there. As you know usa laws are design to oppress you and keep you in fear. Very stressful living in the usa. Sorry to everybody for my comment.

  • ok im also sorry but if u aint go there please dont talk bout it.i kno america never want people to kno there are great things down there but jet still Ghana is full of immigrants jus like the united states.once again sorry

  • Dont apologize my brother from the lost tribe. America doesn't give us a good example on how to be. Our music nowadays has been so corrupted tv programming even the churches give us of the lost tribes poor examples on how to be. Have african friends from Ivory Coast learn alot from them. Write me a message in my inbox want to share some information with you. Read many books on the black american mind and how are minds been changed through slavery to that of a slave.

  • True lot of poor americans in fact majority are poor.

  • im middle class......

  • love it...take a look at mine...

    went to ghana a couple of times this last years...
