      Are you an Americo-Liberian? If so, you need to stay on American soil where you belong. Africans are aware of what the Americo-Liberians have done to Indigenous Liberians and their erasure of Indigenous African culture & languages.

    Now THIS could be the future face of African Television! This is the most encouraging vid I have watched so far this year. I wish Africans at Home and Africans Abroad could have an International Black Media network that can give us More ideas, advice and sucess stories to BUILD AFRICA.
    I enjoyed watching the positive interaction between our Host Rush Asare and Mr McNeal. Can we work together? OF COURSE!. We ALL just need to be Honest and Professional in our relations with each other . But YES! I feel very encouraged. I also believe that we must push for a media Network that has a TV/radio channel. I could watch this type of content for hours! BIG UP Rush and Eric

      Thankfully, Somanya is in Southeastern Ghana. ;-) Ghana overall has 9600 bites per year. The US has approximately 7000-8000 snakebites per year. Brazil has 27,000 snakebites per year. In China, 200,000-400,000 snakebites per year. Just adding a little perspective so that folks are not made to fear African countries unnecessarily.

      He owns the land. He said he went into a deal with them to not pay everything upfront. I am doing the same thing. It’s not easy to pay for 200 acres of land out of your pocket. You can take on debt to do it and use the property as a collateral, which is a terrible idea. You can get an investor to finance the land, which means you are selling a portion of your company. Or you can be brilliant and let the owner agree to a payment plan. You give no equity, and take on no debt, this is what Eric brilliantly did.

    After how they demolished the Hebrew Israelites religious leaders house when he has legal land denture, sorry but I have lost all faith in buying land and real estate in Ghana. land reform needed too much corruption and land fraud.
