Ghana’s minister of tourism invites American blacks to ‘come home’ following Floyd death
2020-06-16
[BIZPACREVIEW] Minister of Tourism, Arts, and Culture Barbara Oteng-Gyasi invited blacks in the United States to "re-settle in Ghana if they feel unwanted" during a ceremony commemorating the death of Minneapolis resident George Floyd.

According to the Independent Ghana news outlet, Oteng-Gyasi made the offer during a wreath-laying ceremony to honor Floyd.

"Racism in America continues to be a deadly pandemic, for which for more than 400 years now, our brothers and sisters in the United States of America have yearned for a cure," she reportedly said.

"We continue to open our arms and invite all our brothers and sisters home. Ghana is your home. Africa is your home. We have our arms wide open ready to welcome you home," she added, according to the report.

"Please take advantage, come home build a life in Ghana, you do not have to stay where you are not wanted forever, you have a choice and Africa is waiting for you," she said.

#4  Of course no one will go. Living here puts you in the top 1% for all humanity, and at some level they know and understand that.
