Thank You for sharing your story. I am Diaspora seeking to come back home to Africa and share my wealth with community. I am doing all my homework before purchasing land. Thank you for sharing. We have been warned! Unfortunately There are crooks and horrible people everywhere. So I hope your journey continues because I am not stopping to seek purchasing land, home in Africa❤
Sistah, I want you to know that I am sorry for your experience. I have been in Ghana for 3 years and I have numerous and more horrific stories. I came here alone and ready to do business. I quickly learned that in most cases; I had to send in a man to speak for me. A man that I had to COACH!! - in order to relay my requests and wishes and also manage my business deals. It was and IS hard. I will tell you that I had to make a Huge decision about my future in Ghana.....Ghana is not ready for US and WE are not ready for Ghana....period. Africa is the future but right now, its struggling. We need to unapologetically keep our foot in Africa and secure our seat at the table. I now come and go when I need to take care of business matters. I come and stay 6-8 weeks and then head back to the states for about 3-4 months then repeat. It allows me to decompress and recharge so I can go at it again. We are Revolutionaries! We are international Business Women! They will not stop me! Osunremilekun
What you experienced is not isolated, this is one of the outcomes of colonisation of Africans and the continued programming of the Africans who’ve never really experienced the reality of the absurdity of the colonisers - ‘colonial mentality syndrome.
@@marlonking8830 really tired of black men blaming white people for grown men bad behavior! Just call black men stupid and move on because if they don’t know how to handle themselves like adults by now then they are sub standard humans!!
Yes, we have to shine the light onto the darkness that is trying to ruin the greatness Ghana has and still can be! People are seeking to come home yet these things make people nit want to come or make them flee. I've witnessed the exodus of some in the last year!
Shalawam✊🏿🙏🏿🕎!!! Let's attack the bad guys, not the country. Matriarch/Feminism is destroying USA 🇺🇸. I don't condone physical abuse, or bad business practices.
As a Jamaican building in Ghana which I love so much and encourage so many Ghanian in the UK to come to Ghana.. this is so sad and unfortunate.. I myself is dealing with KAS and as a result I will withdraw my business. I'm sorry about this my dear sister.. let's continue to expose these weak men who is giving Ghana a bad name... Why treat a woman your sister like this?
It is a shame that the government of Ghana isn’t doing anything about these shameful and horrible acts and experiences that the system in the country allows to not only go on, but thrive and flourish . Shame Ghana shame!!
The former lady embassador who was pushing this repatriation agenda to Ghana needs to know about this issue. This serious not good at all. Someone got to know her contact information.. they need to be exposed. Ghana leader and his cabinet is a waste of time. Reach out to the doctor lady.
Sister buying land in Ghana especially in Accra is very dangerous. People gets killed because of shady deals from very corrupt chiefs, landowners and corrupt system. I am a Ghanaian based in Canada and I am a victim of Accra land nonsense. I local Chief sold an acre plot of land to me through my uncle based in Accra, I put up a fence around the land , just after a year, he turned around and sold the same land to somebody else, as I am speaking, for over seven years, the case is still in court with no end in sight. I have decided to give up after spending thousands of dollars fighting it. Advise your people and anybody who intend to invest in lands in and around Accra. When I went back to develop it, I almost got physically attacked. I won’t buy a land in Accra, not even for a dollar.
A Colonized mind can’t be irradiated, until they admit they’ve been colonized! I would NEVER move to a foreign land where I can only own a firearm for hunting & not, protection. You like it, I love it for you.
So sorry to hear your story sis. As a female repat in The Gambia I went through far more abuse and got solid evidence. Won a civil court case but they wouldn't convict the "reputable man" for the numerous criminal activities I proved he did. I was told Ghana treated women better.. But look at this... Smh
Wow. All I know is the support being shown over this is triggering a movement. THE PEOPLE are stepping up right now. KAS will never have it like they did prior. All I care about is helping others at this point.
Oh, please, those people in authority don't care about taking any action in regards to the dishonesty, scamming, land fraud, etc that goes on in Ghana. If they were to take notice, they might have to do something and no one wants to stick their neck out and do something. Status quo is the way they all go because It's too much trouble. I am truly sorry this happened to you and feeling your pain. Seeing this video makes me ever so glad that I did not continue on with trying to purchase land from this company. This video is a great service to the community and thank you for sharing and maybe, maybe, maybe it might shame someone to actually take a notice for needed examination of the Ghana business environment.
Oh dear Sister Leslie! This must've felt so frightening & surreal--a nightmare! I sincerely regret this happened to you but appreciate you informing & sharing this painful experience with us. I'm telling everyone I know to AVOID DEALING WITH KAS REAL ESTATE. You are right to report this & create a paper trail regardless of the outcome. As the Repat community grows stronger (I'm also currently in the acquisition process), we'll spread the word and dishonest, abusive businesses will lose out on boundless opportunities we collectively represent. I appreciate also that you state specifically who the culprits are, rather than paint all with a broad brush. I will share information about my land acquisition process after my next trip later this month.
That's why I made a point to get receipts and expose my story. I didn't want people to travel all that way and invest without a realistic understanding of the place and system. And I think this is a common theme throughout the continent.
These are def some of the changes we all have to make happen on the continent. If this happened to my daughter it’s up but im not tryna come to Africa for 😩🤦🏾♂️
Leslie I am so sorry this happened to you. There are other videos with sistah's assaulted by taxi drivers over there. One said the same thing you said about having to be super feminine to stop their aggression. I'm so pissed!
It’s an issue…truly. I’ve had woman email, Dm, and leave voice notes crying telling me their stories. It’s an issue that can not continue to be ignored. Especially since they want us to come and build for them with our money.
Sorry you are going through it to. Feel free to join the petition I have started by filling out the questionnaire on my website www.vision-reality.com/contact-us
You are VERY STRONG... Your story definetly needs to be heard. This should not be happening to anyone. All the diaspora out there in Ghana..all the good people in Ghana... SOMEBODY must make this right.
Hi Sistah- thank you for being transparent and sharing this horrible incident. I stand with you. I have been to Ghana twice this year and plan to invest as well. May God deal with these perpetrators, like only He can! I will share this video here in the States ( I live in DC) and many of the diaspora are indeed returning to the continent. I will make sure we do NOT support KAS. I hope you create a community of women like ourselves (with lawyers, doctors, business woman, etc) that are returning to support each other. This is a great start. Let’s keep this video sharing!
There is no REAL LEGAL SYSTEM or any SYSTEM IN GHANA🤮! I'm so sorry to hear your horrible experience 😢 Thanks for sharing this experience. 99% of Ghanaian men disrespect women and that must be changed 😤 Women must FIGHT for their rights and not use these same disrespectful men to conduct our businesses for us...such engagement/arrangement is kotowing to the VERY BROKEN SO-CALLED "SYSTEM" in Ghana. Very shameful for Ghana the gateway to 'HELL'😞! Stay strong and let's fight together for our rights as women 💪!
I'm a Ghanian living in Los Angeles, CA. I just subscribe to your channel after watching you and Jay at the beachfront property video and then came across this video really breaks my heart tbh. I am deeply disappointed and so sorry for what you went through on the motherland. I wish I was there this BS will never happen to any female in my present I swear the God I'll beat this salaam guy up. He is such a coward and ignoramus to place his hand on a female. The Ghana/African government must put laws in place specifically to protect our Diaspora family on the continent. Leslie I'm proud of, you got this girl! I pray you accomplish all your goals/dreams on the motherland.
They all need to be called out and exposed for the whole world to see. Be safe gurl as they may retaliate. This madness have to stop. Black women are getting tired of working so hard trying to build a future for ourselves and families. Rise up ladies as these types of situations often gets swept under the rug. No more. Enough is enough. Thanks for sharing your story. Stay brave and be safe❤.
Thank you for sharing and warning us. I am a single female and have given much thought to coming to Africa to invest. I pray that ABBA Yah intervenes on your behalf!! Stay encouraged!!
Sister, I’m sorry to hear this type of negative experience you had to go through trying to do business in Africa. It’s good that you were able to give your testimony that will help others to avoid encountering this horrific experience. Continue my sister to take action, this has to stop. My prayers are with you for your safety and peace of mind going forward. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
It is not even about a guy wanting to act Macho. Far from it. He is a coward picking on a defenseless lady. This guy is acting like a typical corrupt and selfish African government official. They don't respect themselves, nor their country's reputation. The real evil. People like these had been ruling in Africa for a long time. Reasons why the continent is lagging behind in various domains.
Broke my heart to hear this and see the emotional trauma caused you. Be safe Leslie. I feel that this is going to be dealt with And it should. Stay strong sis...your tenacity inspires and motivates me and so many other women so much❤️
I thought this issue was only in Nigeria. For the first time in my life I was almost sexually assaulted in Nigeria. You can’t be around these men alone. That witness could not be trusted.
Wow Sis, I just came across your channel through a link in one of my groups. It’s so sad but I’ve learned in my 2 years in Ghana to have one of my Ghana brothers to speak for me in certain situations because I’ve seen how the men here are unfortunately stunted in a lot of ways, and the patriarchal hierarchy will continue to stunt the growth. So sorry you experienced this, stay strong! 🙏🏾💪🏾✊🏾
This is why I personally don’t promote Ghana,cus there are a lot weird stuff going on behind the scenes. And those telling the good story about Ghana are not revealing these Stuff,which sickens me. I’m very sorry.and I’d want u to stay strong
No one is asking you to promote Ghana anyway.. maybe you should tell us abt those weird stuff going on behind doors. There bad apples everywhere you just need to be careful it’s very unfortunate she had to deal with those fools.
@@sendiferjohnson7497 Trust me i know the feeling n what she’s going through. All I am saying is every one need to be careful when it come to land issues in Ghana especially in Accra because even those of us that were grow up there been through that mess. I just didn’t like ur comment abt how you don’t want to promote Ghana cus of weird things happening behind doors . I live in America where you can be assorted randomly or even get shot for minding ur business but I still wouldn’t come here to say weird stuff happening in America, all I am saying is be careful with who you deal with anywhere in the world when it comes to business people people desperate and greedy nowadays.
Dear, There are people "mentally deranged" and unreasonable people all over the world... l believe not all Ghanaians behave like. I hope and believe the Ghanaian judiciary system will set things right for you, personally, and all people at large. Be strong and blessed. Thank you 😊.
I'm so sorry this happened. I've been in Ghana 4 years and this type of stuff happens all the time unfortunately. There are so many women from the diaspora is being mistreated. We all should speak up more. Thank you. I'm definitely sharing this.
Seriously? I am Ghanaian although I have been living stateside the last 24 years. I travel to Ghana several times a year and very much in tune with the culture. You mean this bozo physically assaulted a female customer? My experience has been that Ghanaians generally are deferential to western foreigners so this is an eye opener for me. Let me continue watching to see how it went.
@@PaultheSheik yes! My friend was assaulted today 11/8/22 by a taxi driver because he wanted more money than he originally asked for. He also got very upset and yelled at her for directing him which way to go. He grabbed her and shook her by her arms trying to force more payment because he said it was dropping even though it was a shared car. Instead of talking to her he chose violence. She managed to get away from him because a lady in her shop came to help her. The driver continued to follow her and insulted her constantly. She's almost 60 years old. I'm so glad my friend is safe and didn't get injured.
@@greatness79ajj Wow, it seems things are worse than I imagined. African American women tend to be assertive (I am not saying this in a bad way) and should be alert about the environment. As you know the law doesn't work or works in a different manner in the African environment from in the USA. You know what I mean. Please exercise discretion in dealings with these types of people, unfortunately we have some lowlifes. In proper establishments like banks, chain hotels etc. this cannot happen because there will be consequences.
I didn’t even say a word or make eye contact. If they wanna snatch you up they will. I have men in place now so they will never have a chance to assault me or let alone see me again. I am definitely grateful for the level of surveillance in businesses in the states. It protects the people and the business.
HOLD UP!!! So you purchased a land that doesn’t exist and when you showed up to fix it they assaulted you??? That’s insane. I am sorry this happened to you. Kas estate is a scam. Most of us have purchased land for years from KAS and still waiting for site plan and indenture yet nothing. Yes, Can you believe that? We all have to join together and sue them asap. Leslie, don’t let this unfortunately incident change you forever. We love watching you on your channel because you area AMAZING.
@@iAmLeslieJones this is definitely about Ghana no all of Africa... Listen stop being asleep things in Africa are just corrupt... Thieves most of deals are scans.... As I said they falsely accused me of a crime put me through legal system. . police have come to my house harassed me threatened to put another fake charge on unless I paid them the second time... This is just how things work here...
@@iAmLeslieJones Madame I have been watching your vidéos from the beginning including your séjourne in the coconut hut when I felt so much for you, not because it was dangerous but as a typical Ghanaian man we care for the welfare of our women, contrary to your assertion. I was happy when you indicated that you were going to Kumasi so I sent you à message to inquire if you were actually in Kumasi. There is à Ghanaian saying that " A woman does not need to look for a sleeping place overnight" If you want to live and or work in Ghana you seriously need to study the customs, rules, some twi etc. Touching, embracing etc is so normal without any sexual connotations. Indeed, PDA is not very common. For your information, 75% of Ghanaian society is matrelineal hence women are in control but subtly. So much so that a former military head of state had to distroy the Makola market because he claimed the market women were strangling the economy. You only need to go to our markets. So this talk about patriacal society détrimental to Ghana is wrong. We don't need à society where 75% of women are unmarried or single mothers, where men have become women, where kids have no fathers or father figures. If you have your fight with KAS Estates, please concentrate on it and stop denigrating Ghanaians, especially men. I am sure If had à man, he would have adviced you to act less emotionally. You have given crédence to notion of the "Angry African American Woman". As you may have noticed, the average Ghanaian is calm. hence the display such aggressive behaviour is not acceptable. The average Ghanaian avoids having contact with the Police, although in Ghana they are friendly and can be very efficient so you may well be adviced to avoid becoming thier "habitual client", or trouble maker, as is called in the profession. I personally lost money on two plots, under dubious circumstances in East Lagon but eventually got one whose value has multiplied by 50 times in 20 years because I was patient enough to accept another one which they proposed. You have à nice property which will give you good returns. You don't want to be labled a trouble maker. I hope this advice helps.
@@diannwhitaker6 What is the best way to avoid these kind of issues? I'm a man that has yet to go to Ghana, but when I do I'll be looking for land (multiple acres) to purchase and I *DON'T* want to deal with anything that will make me be violent.
I really felt your sadness when you said you never were assaulted by anyone in the states not even a white man! SMH Good for you for refusing to accept this. I hope it works out for you over there, stay strong.
Thank you so much for this video. We need to really start female collective societies and groups to build momentum and end this nonsense. For women across Ghana who are new to the society we must have a digital group and physical meet ups. No one else is going to do this for us.
This is very very serious. Many of us are coming by the thousands and this crap must stop. We need to band together these male sexist very old society's existed for thousands of years is very very real. Jay Cameron and Go Black 2, Wodomya, are African well known You tubers must help by joining forces to protect black women expats from America, Canada, Scotland, UK and the Caribbean. They want a movement lets give them one because the African sisters who are not from the upper classes will not fight back. Many of us must send money towards your law suite. Good luck stay strong and know that the system has been broken. Can you contact the Odana Network?
Wow so sorry to hear this.. this is disgusting.. don’t sweep this under the rug. This needs to be addressed ASAP. Shame on the system! We are our worst enemies.. keep doing what your doing don’t give up.. don’t give in. Praying for you sis❤🙏🏾
No excuses my friends. We expect better from public servants, considering what is at stake. This is an importunity to find a long term solution to this problem. They should streamline the process. We don’t need any more bad publicity to fuel the naysayers in Africa and abroad. I have contacted the Ghana office of the diaspora affairs about this incident. I have suggested that they should staff their office with diaspora Africans as well . This office should handle everything for the diaspora. From residential visa, to land acquisition, investments, health care and even plumbing maintenance work and waste collection. I mean everything. No more one-on-one talk with government officials. The Diaspora affairs office should handle it. They should recommend to the diaspora which contractors to hire, which real estate agency to consult, which family doctor to go to, etc... We cant leave Africans from the diaspora to fend for themselves individually in Ghana or anywhere in Africa. A service specifically dedicated to the diaspora must be set up to handle settling process into a new the country. Please, go to the Ghana office of the diaspora affairs website. Write to them . Express your concerns.
No no terrible idea. We need to sort this out together not create a new segregated regime among ourselves. Then who will rule over the segregated state you would want to create? The same colonial powers we know so well?
@@Asantemanso24 I think you misunderstood me. We are saying the same thing. Working together with the office of the Diaspora affairs in Ghana to streamline the process.
@@nostalgiacampesina I hear your intentions are good don't get me wrong. My concerns are historical. When our feed family in the diaspora returned to Liberia from 1822 they established a segregated state. The division created a kind of apartheid that caused war and chaos between the returnees and those already there. It worked perfectly into the plans of Western nations to exploit the land while we were busy fighting each other. Unity in all things is the only way forward so change comes from within and comes to all in the land.
Put up or shut up! I want to contribute $100 to put up another mural or print flyers to call attention to the violence against women in Ghana/Africa. This has to stop.
So sorry Love, l hope these lot get theirs one day, and please guys especially Diasporas, cut these people off, do not trade with this company - KAS - ESTATES LTD, they are Bad News !!!
I just found your channel, I have been beinge watching your videos, every obsticle you face you've handled it with so much patience and optimism. seeing you cry just broke me😥 even through this heartfelt video QUEEN your light still shines. I cant stop at this video I need to see you smiling again - New subscriber.
I’m soo incredibly sorry this happened to you Queen. That experience you endured is NOT okay! I will definitely be sharing this video with my networks and in the meantime I encourage you to stay safe, stand strong and hold them bastards accountable. Don’t worry. They gone fawk around, get surprised and find out why respect for women is the best policy!
I'm so sorry this happened to you! I was looking online for land and found this company a while ago. I read some reviews that gave me the impression they weren't trustworthy. Please stay safe..these folks are not good people. I hope to find a male consigliary/advisor when I arrive...someone on salary, that knows the Ghanaian systems and can manage these types of interactions. I've been incredibly lucky in my travels on the continent and have met wonderful people. I will keep you in my thoughts...you have a warrior spirit and I know you will prevail. Stay strong my sister.
Just be careful out there, they always try to take advantage of diasporas. I’m talking as a Ghanaian. It’s always best to find a trusted person to lead you.
Leslie, I am so sorry you’re having to go thru this ordeal!! I’ve followed you from the beginning and believe you experienced these assaults! You’re doing the right thing, put names and faces to this offense!! Make Ghana safe for all women!! ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
You are doing the right thing my child.africa need a mind clean up.this is crazy.Ghana is one of the first place on the continent people want to go and this,?no man 🇯🇲
I’m so sorry. I am praying for you. Thank you for sharing your story. I needed to know this. I will be there soon, but I will always have a way to protect myself. We are coming for a better way of life. Being traumatized in Ghana is not okay. I hate they stole your joy. Please be safe a guard yourself against these small me. Shalom ❤
There are many weak men in Ghana. The lack of integrity is so pervasive it makes me pause when thinking about moving there. I am sorry this happened to you, and I hope that you build relationships with some men who can step in for you when needed.

Hay watch your mouth. Not only Ghana, this happens all over. Not only in Ghana. We condemn what happened to our sister. Don't make it as if this. Only happen in Ghana
@@ianbrighouse3056 I spent half of a year there. I enjoyed my experience and it changed my life. However, the lack of ethics and integrity is so rampant that it definitely makes me hesitant. I'm going to continue exploring Africa, but Ghana is an option at the moment.
Wow. Just wow. I’m so sorry abt what happened to u. Ghana is truly one of the safest places in Africa and I’m disgusted abt what those men did. We r not like that and such things r rare. Once again, we r sorry
If this is one of the safest places in Africa, that's horrifying. We are fortunate she's as emotionally intelligent as she is, because who knows what would have happened if not. This is definitely a cautionary tale, worth every member of the diaspora hearing. How can a country ask us to return, to this barbaric treatment?
I'm so sorry this happened to you sis, it's so disheartening...definitely sharing this should've never happened 😪 Also 🙏🏾 protection, security & peace for you & all single women there in Ghana & all Diasporan's
Thank your for sharing your experience. I’m sorry you are going through this. I’m not sure if it was your videos, but I heard about KAS estates too and has reach out to Mr. Manu some time ago. I am glad to know I should not continue dialogue with this company. The communication had fallen off anyway and I didn’t get a good feeling about it. This confirms my intuition. That said, I hope you have swift resolution with your land purchase. I’m praying God’s protection for you. Stay safe.
Sorry to hear about that. As you said we need to remember these are corrupt, 3rd world counties that are far behind first world countries in many ways. I know we like to glorify the "motherland" and vilify the US and Europe this and that but we also need to pull our heads out of our asses and start living in reality. Not an attack on Ghana as i love doing short term vacations there but lets be realistic. There is a reason ghana ranks 133rd on the human development index. They have alot of work to do. Glad you spoke up though.
Leslie, Trust me some of us have taken notes In our Akan culture one does not lay hands on a woman period. So they say your case may be week for lack of witnesses coming forward but there is also the saying that where there is the will there is Always a way.. We LOVE you Leslie and I speak for A LL the Ghanaian community based here in London. Hand on heart , though am not speaking for each member of the group, at the very least take note the majority including myself are on standby to engage your services period to do with land acquisition - the decision was made 10 days ago. So starting with me each one of us will also be shortly picking up the phone to discuss their individual needs with you very soon.. You touched on need for protection as a single lady and like to take it to next level time comes shortly. Maximum apologies for your mishap but I thought you need to hear this to create a balance. This is Nash from London.
Just a few months ago I was in a land litigation. It led to the police station. Trust me the unprofessionalism there is unbelievable. I had a female officer. She flirted will the male officers, hugging, dancing, running out the door after them, all while writing my report. Even asking me for money to top off her phone in front of the people I was in litigation with. She even said "oh don't worry you can give it to me in front of them it's no problem " It's definitely frustrating to say the least.
In Kenya, this con case would make news headlines and this guy would be fired & in jail now..He grabbed you by your jaw too ? Kenya's cops would cook him alive.
Most Black Americans go to Africa with all love but not understanding the African people would do almost anything for money , they will sweet talk you into trusting them so that you can part with your money . The country is 90% dishonest so you must make sure you have your people with you when dealing with buying land and don’t take short cuts follow the full legal process, have a hidden camera and mic to record all conversations and business transactions and no cash in exchanges , this is what I did with the extra mile of asking the seller to take make to his home and family them to let him know I’ll come for them if I can’t find him to kill him if he scam I even warned the lands commission . Mr salaam manu will not get away with what he did to this beautiful lady I am going to visit him to give him two options
Hi Leslie, Sorry you have to go through all these. It’s rather unfortunate but trust me, until you get into any problem or scam in Ghana, you’ll never know there are strict laws out there. The government will support you. See help from the right people. All the best!
I’m so angry. I’m having my house builed in Ghana. And I’ve been trying to get my daughter to move to Ghana and this happened to you. Don’t let this go. He needs to pay for this. Stay strong my sister
Did you report this to the Criminal Investigation Department? I was in a similar situation with land and m9ney taken and the CID did their best yo help me. This situation is one of many, and we need to get together and expose these scamming activities.
I think one other way to this “Call to Action “, would be to go on as many national syndicated radio shows as you possibly could, to put the system on blast. The powers that be, would, I would think rise to action in your favor. I’m a Ghanaian domicile in the United States and I’m appalled.
Thank you for sharing. I am a single woman who intends to purchase land in Ghana. I definitely will NOT deal with KAS. Maybe if the realize that there are consequences for their actions. We can not change the way that laws are enforced in Ghana but we can send a definitive message that expats expect to be respected and treated as people. If you want us to give what we have to help build your country; we must be treated with decency and respect at a minimum. I will carry my money to where I find quality service.
This is excessive and not helping us to come home! This will not happen to the others! It's the land of our ancestors that we have stolen from us! This is part of why we can't be one! It's sad 😭 to hear this happen to a person like ❤️ we must work to make it better 👍 the brainwash of retribution on woman in Africa are at the highest level and it's need to stop ⛔ we are coming home and must protect ourself! We have to put in place a commission to deal with this as a diaspora! I am with you! Thank you for sharing shalom
If the elders of you family didn’t pass down the history of being on the slave ships, sorry to break it to you…it never happened!!! Propaganda will have you lost and confused, believing a lie.
Thank you for sharing your experience. It's important for the diaspora to get an objective and complete picture. Be careful, we don't need you to become a hashtag in order to make a point. You shouldn't have to bear the burden alone. God is watching! 🙏🏿🤲🏿
Young sister I am so sorry you were assaulted but very proud of you for sharing this bad and ugly for the world to see. The damage runs deep and multi leveled - physical, mental, emotional etc. mixed with their own original ish. I'm guessing they've never done this to Chinese, Arabs, Indians etc. Get my drift. Go forth bravely and fiercely --- with protection!! We have to fight all the way back to righteousness. Blessings young one.
Sorry to hear about this. It's inspiring to see that you are turning ypur experoence into something positive - a call for action. May God continue to give you wisdom, protection, and peace. 🙏🏾❤
I really don’t understand why some people easily take advantage like that. Really sorry you had to go through these. Ghana has issues when it comes to acquiring land, there is always land disputes etc. it’s either one thing or another.
Hey, so sorry you had to go through this, sounds like most men there are insecure and intimidated by a powerful woman. I hope that someone who is powerful there and is really wanting to have change and development in Ghana is watching this and helps you to take action against this ridiculousness that's going on there

Problem is SHE IS EDUCATED and they see her as a threat. They tried to dupe her and FAILED. She has to be CAREFUL as life is cheap and they are corrupt to the core. África good for a holiday the rest no way.
Sis, you are a strong, powerful, & intelligent black woman. So sorry this happened to you. Keep your head up and continue your path. I am in the US rooting for you and your journey back to the Motherland. Salaam will reap what he sows.
I'm so sorry this happened to you Sister, you are such a lovely person. Hopefully you get this sorted and don't be discouraged by the actions of these weak men. ❤️❤️❤️
I’m so sorry that this happened to you..I know of their patriarchal system and I have a brother that adopted me into his family for protection from things like this..It’s a shame that it has to be done that way for now anyways …I pray for your protection and strength.🙏🏽❤️thank you for sharing🙏🏽
From the Uk...Sis stay strong. I would recommend reaching out to Wode Maya.He knows alot of government officials.And influential people in Ghana. In some countries,it's not about what you now,but who you now. Thank you for letting people know about kAS,ripping people off.
The local government there in Ghana needs to make this right. I hope Jay, Vanessa kanbi, wode Maya and other youtubers make some noise on this as well Incompetent services are one thing, ASSAULT is another
Wode Maya wouldn't do a video and tell people the truth about what is going on in Ghana 🇬🇭, all they're doing keep pushing people to come home. When they know setting things are are not good in the eg very bad health care system, rubbish educational system, abusing women on all levels and bad security system. All this things are there but they won't address it for the government to do something about rather promoting Africa with his eyes closed.
I’m so grateful for the support. The response is definitely showing a team needs to be made. Definitely want to start with the right organization as well. Thx for watching.
Thank You for sharing your story. I am Diaspora seeking to come back home to Africa and share my wealth with community. I am doing all my homework before purchasing land. Thank you for sharing. We have been warned! Unfortunately
There are crooks and horrible people everywhere. So I hope your journey continues because I am not stopping to seek purchasing land, home in Africa❤
How’s it going for ya so far?
Sistah, I want you to know that I am sorry for your experience. I have been in Ghana for 3 years and I have numerous and more horrific stories. I came here alone and ready to do business. I quickly learned that in most cases; I had to send in a man to speak for me. A man that I had to COACH!! - in order to relay my requests and wishes and also manage my business deals. It was and IS hard. I will tell you that I had to make a Huge decision about my future in Ghana.....Ghana is not ready for US and WE are not ready for Ghana....period. Africa is the future but right now, its struggling. We need to unapologetically keep our foot in Africa and secure our seat at the table. I now come and go when I need to take care of business matters. I come and stay 6-8 weeks and then head back to the states for about 3-4 months then repeat. It allows me to decompress and recharge so I can go at it again. We are Revolutionaries! We are international Business Women! They will not stop me! Osunremilekun
Wow! You are amazing! Thank you for sharing. It seems like that will be my path as well.
On point, and zero accountability for bad behavior
What you experienced is not isolated, this is one of the outcomes of colonisation of Africans and the continued programming of the Africans who’ve never really experienced the reality of the absurdity of the colonisers - ‘colonial mentality syndrome.
@@marlonking8830 really tired of black men blaming white people for grown men bad behavior! Just call black men stupid and move on because if they don’t know how to handle themselves like adults by now then they are sub standard humans!!
Omg😢This really breaks my heart 😢I’m soooo sorry!
I’m shocked as well 哥哥
Please interview her and help her please MaYa
Yes, we have to shine the light onto the darkness that is trying to ruin the greatness Ghana has and still can be! People are seeking to come home yet these things make people nit want to come or make them flee. I've witnessed the exodus of some in the last year!
Shalawam✊🏿🙏🏿🕎!!! Let's attack the bad guys, not the country. Matriarch/Feminism is destroying USA 🇺🇸. I don't condone physical abuse, or bad business practices.
Wode, do you have any contacts who can help her? This is a serious issue.
As a Jamaican building in Ghana which I love so much and encourage so many Ghanian in the UK to come to Ghana.. this is so sad and unfortunate.. I myself is dealing with KAS and as a result I will withdraw my business.
I'm sorry about this my dear sister.. let's continue to expose these weak men who is giving Ghana a bad name... Why treat a woman your sister like this?
Enough is enough. I appreciate you watching and supporting 🙏🏿
dang. 💪🏾💪🏾 that is how you cancel bad behavior.
It is a shame that the government of Ghana isn’t doing anything about these shameful and horrible acts and experiences that the system in the country allows to not only go on, but thrive and flourish . Shame Ghana shame!!
It is a shame. We can only hope for change. Hope can only get ya so far.
The former lady embassador who was pushing this repatriation agenda to Ghana needs to know about this issue. This serious not good at all. Someone got to know her contact information.. they need to be exposed. Ghana leader and his cabinet is a waste of time. Reach out to the doctor lady.
Sister buying land in Ghana especially in Accra is very dangerous. People gets killed because of shady deals from very corrupt chiefs, landowners and corrupt system. I am a Ghanaian based in Canada and I am a victim of Accra land nonsense. I local Chief sold an acre plot of land to me through my uncle based in Accra, I put up a fence around the land , just after a year, he turned around and sold the same land to somebody else, as I am speaking, for over seven years, the case is still in court with no end in sight. I have decided to give up after spending thousands of dollars fighting it. Advise your people and anybody who intend to invest in lands in and around Accra. When I went back to develop it, I almost got physically attacked. I won’t buy a land in Accra, not even for a dollar.
Thank you for the honesty
A Colonized mind can’t be irradiated, until they admit they’ve been colonized!
I would NEVER move to a foreign land where I can only own a firearm for hunting & not, protection. You like it, I love it for you.
So sorry to hear your story sis. As a female repat in The Gambia I went through far more abuse and got solid evidence. Won a civil court case but they wouldn't convict the "reputable man" for the numerous criminal activities I proved he did. I was told Ghana treated women better.. But look at this... Smh
Wow. All I know is the support being shown over this is triggering a movement. THE PEOPLE are stepping up right now. KAS will never have it like they did prior. All I care about is helping others at this point.
Oh, please, those people in authority don't care about taking any action in regards to the dishonesty, scamming, land fraud, etc that goes on in Ghana. If they were to take notice, they might have to do something and no one wants to stick their neck out and do something. Status quo is the way they all go because It's too much trouble. I am truly sorry this happened to you and feeling your pain. Seeing this video makes me ever so glad that I did not continue on with trying to purchase land from this company. This video is a great service to the community and thank you for sharing and maybe, maybe, maybe it might shame someone to actually take a notice for needed examination of the Ghana business environment.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
You must write to the Ghana President. Everything in their society is base on wealth power and position. Please do it quickly!!!!!!!!!!
Oh dear Sister Leslie! This must've felt so frightening & surreal--a nightmare! I sincerely regret this happened to you but appreciate you informing & sharing this painful experience with us. I'm telling everyone I know to AVOID DEALING WITH KAS REAL ESTATE. You are right to report this & create a paper trail regardless of the outcome.
As the Repat community grows stronger (I'm also currently in the acquisition process), we'll spread the word and dishonest, abusive businesses will lose out on boundless opportunities we collectively represent.
I appreciate also that you state specifically who the culprits are, rather than paint all with a broad brush. I will share information about my land acquisition process after my next trip later this month.
I appreciate your support
That's why I made a point to get receipts and expose my story. I didn't want people to travel all that way and invest without a realistic understanding of the place and system. And I think this is a common theme throughout the continent.
The people are knowing. We gon keep sharing our story sis
These are def some of the changes we all have to make happen on the continent. If this happened to my daughter it’s up but im not tryna come to Africa for 😩🤦🏾♂️
Leslie I am so sorry this happened to you. There are other videos with sistah's assaulted by taxi drivers over there. One said the same thing you said about having to be super feminine to stop their aggression. I'm so pissed!
It’s an issue…truly. I’ve had woman email, Dm, and leave voice notes crying telling me their stories. It’s an issue that can not continue to be ignored. Especially since they want us to come and build for them with our money.
Wow! I wanted to visit Ghana. I will not spend money to get assaulted. Take care sis.
…..And also to that person that witness this assault yet didn’t say or do anything to help her…. SHAME ON YOU 💔💔💔💔
100%
That’s a bad bad company. I’m going through the same problem right now.
Sorry you are going through it to. Feel free to join the petition I have started by filling out the questionnaire on my website www.vision-reality.com/contact-us
You are VERY STRONG... Your story definetly needs to be heard. This should not be happening to anyone. All the diaspora out there in Ghana..all the good people in Ghana... SOMEBODY must make this right.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Hi Sistah- thank you for being transparent and sharing this horrible incident. I stand with you. I have been to Ghana twice this year and plan to invest as well. May God deal with these perpetrators, like only He can! I will share this video here in the States ( I live in DC) and many of the diaspora are indeed returning to the continent. I will make sure we do NOT support KAS. I hope you create a community of women like ourselves (with lawyers, doctors, business woman, etc) that are returning to support each other. This is a great start. Let’s keep this video sharing!
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Physical Assault? Any form of unwanted touch is unacceptable.
I concur
Beware, & on guard, this jaw dropping look has really changed the narrative of African food 😅
There is no REAL LEGAL SYSTEM or any SYSTEM IN GHANA🤮! I'm so sorry to hear your horrible experience 😢 Thanks for sharing this experience. 99% of Ghanaian men disrespect women and that must be changed 😤 Women must FIGHT for their rights and not use these same disrespectful men to conduct our businesses for us...such engagement/arrangement is kotowing to the VERY BROKEN SO-CALLED "SYSTEM" in Ghana. Very shameful for Ghana the gateway to 'HELL'😞! Stay strong and let's fight together for our rights as women 💪!
Thanks for honesty Sista I completely support your exposing KAS Crooks ..abusers and disrespectful
Crooks indeed. I appreciate your support
If this was Rwanda the President Kagame would put these crooks under the jail!!
I think it’s just a matter of time for them. This is too much
Greetings from Ghana... PROUD OF YOU FOR EXPOSING!!!!! Sending you an electronic hug! I'm super sharing and liking.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
I'm a Ghanian living in Los Angeles, CA. I just subscribe to your channel after watching you and Jay at the beachfront property video and then came across this video really breaks my heart tbh.
I am deeply disappointed and so sorry for what you went through on the motherland. I wish I was there this BS will never happen to any female in my present I swear the God I'll beat this salaam guy up. He is such a coward and ignoramus to place his hand on a female. The Ghana/African government must put laws in place specifically to protect our Diaspora family on the continent. Leslie I'm proud of, you got this girl! I pray you accomplish all your goals/dreams on the motherland.
I appreciate your encouragement
They all need to be called out and exposed for the whole world to see. Be safe gurl as they may retaliate. This madness have to stop. Black women are getting tired of working so hard trying to build a future for ourselves and families. Rise up ladies as these types of situations often gets swept under the rug. No more. Enough is enough. Thanks for sharing your story. Stay brave and be safe❤.
Thank you for sharing and warning us. I am a single female and have given much thought to coming to Africa to invest. I pray that ABBA Yah intervenes on your behalf!! Stay encouraged!!
Sister, I’m sorry to hear this type of negative experience you had to go through trying to do business in Africa. It’s good that you were able to give your testimony that will help others to avoid encountering this horrific experience. Continue my sister to take action, this has to stop. My prayers are with you for your safety and peace of mind going forward. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
❤❤Thank you
It is not even about a guy wanting to act Macho. Far from it. He is a coward picking on a defenseless lady. This guy is acting like a typical corrupt and selfish African government official. They don't respect themselves, nor their country's reputation. The real evil. People like these had been ruling in Africa for a long time. Reasons why the continent is lagging behind in various domains.
in Ghana be specific
Broke my heart to hear this and see the emotional trauma caused you. Be safe Leslie. I feel that this is going to be dealt with And it should. Stay strong sis...your tenacity inspires and motivates me and so many other women so much❤️
I appreciate you
And I you sis.
Thank you for sharing. Very important for anyone visiting or planning a move to Ghana.
I thought this issue was only in Nigeria. For the first time in my life I was almost sexually assaulted in Nigeria.
You can’t be around these men alone. That witness could not be trusted.
Keep sharing, we need to eliminate this horrible crime to all who are abuse and scam by these predators.
Wow Sis, I just came across your channel through a link in one of my groups. It’s so sad but I’ve learned in my 2 years in Ghana to have one of my Ghana brothers to speak for me in certain situations because I’ve seen how the men here are unfortunately stunted in a lot of ways, and the patriarchal hierarchy will continue to stunt the growth.
So sorry you experienced this, stay strong! 🙏🏾💪🏾✊🏾
✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Thank you so very much for exposing the realities of Ghana!! I feel you sister and will share this with everyone I know.
Thank you so much Denis. I truly appreciate it
This is why I personally don’t promote Ghana,cus there are a lot weird stuff going on behind the scenes.
And those telling the good story about Ghana are not revealing these Stuff,which sickens me.
I’m very sorry.and I’d want u to stay strong
No one is asking you to promote Ghana anyway.. maybe you should tell us abt those weird stuff going on behind doors. There bad apples everywhere you just need to be careful it’s very unfortunate she had to deal with those fools.
@@SamuelAdadejr I guess you’ve never been trough such situation
@@sendiferjohnson7497 Trust me i know the feeling n what she’s going through. All I am saying is every one need to be careful when it come to land issues in Ghana especially in Accra because even those of us that were grow up there been through that mess. I just didn’t like ur comment abt how you don’t want to promote Ghana cus of weird things happening behind doors . I live in America where you can be assorted randomly or even get shot for minding ur business but I still wouldn’t come here to say weird stuff happening in America, all I am saying is be careful with who you deal with anywhere in the world when it comes to business people people desperate and greedy nowadays.
Dear,
There are people "mentally deranged" and unreasonable people all over the world...
l believe not all Ghanaians behave like. I hope and believe the Ghanaian judiciary system will set things right for you, personally, and all people at large.
Be strong and blessed.
Thank you 😊.
I'm so sorry this happened. I've been in Ghana 4 years and this type of stuff happens all the time unfortunately. There are so many women from the diaspora is being mistreated. We all should speak up more. Thank you. I'm definitely sharing this.
I appreciate it
Seriously? I am Ghanaian although I have been living stateside the last 24 years. I travel to Ghana several times a year and very much in tune with the culture. You mean this bozo physically assaulted a female customer? My experience has been that Ghanaians generally are deferential to western foreigners so this is an eye opener for me. Let me continue watching to see how it went.
@@PaultheSheik yes! My friend was assaulted today 11/8/22 by a taxi driver because he wanted more money than he originally asked for. He also got very upset and yelled at her for directing him which way to go. He grabbed her and shook her by her arms trying to force more payment because he said it was dropping even though it was a shared car. Instead of talking to her he chose violence. She managed to get away from him because a lady in her shop came to help her. The driver continued to follow her and insulted her constantly. She's almost 60 years old. I'm so glad my friend is safe and didn't get injured.
@@greatness79ajj Wow, it seems things are worse than I imagined. African American women tend to be assertive (I am not saying this in a bad way) and should be alert about the environment. As you know the law doesn't work or works in a different manner in the African environment from in the USA. You know what I mean.
Please exercise discretion in dealings with these types of people, unfortunately we have some lowlifes. In proper establishments like banks, chain hotels etc. this cannot happen because there will be consequences.
I didn’t even say a word or make eye contact. If they wanna snatch you up they will. I have men in place now so they will never have a chance to assault me or let alone see me again. I am definitely grateful for the level of surveillance in businesses in the states. It protects the people and the business.
HOLD UP!!! So you purchased a land that doesn’t exist and when you showed up to fix it they assaulted you??? That’s insane. I am sorry this happened to you. Kas estate is a scam. Most of us have purchased land for years from KAS and still waiting for site plan and indenture yet nothing. Yes, Can you believe that? We all have to join together and sue them asap. Leslie, don’t let this unfortunately incident change you forever. We love watching you on your channel because you area AMAZING.
🙏🏿🙏🏿 Just a matter of time until they implode
@@iAmLeslieJones this is definitely about Ghana no all of Africa... Listen stop being asleep things in Africa are just corrupt... Thieves most of deals are scans.... As I said they falsely accused me of a crime put me through legal system. . police have come to my house harassed me threatened to put another fake charge on unless I paid them the second time... This is just how things work here...
They breach a contract with me and refuse to give refund even though it’s in THEIR paperwork. I’m behind you all the way!
@@iAmLeslieJones Madame I have been watching your vidéos from the beginning including your séjourne in the coconut hut when I felt so much for you, not because it was dangerous but as a typical Ghanaian man we care for the welfare of our women, contrary to your assertion. I was happy when you indicated that you were going to Kumasi so I sent you à message to inquire if you were actually in Kumasi. There is à Ghanaian saying that " A woman does not need to look for a sleeping place overnight" If you want to live and or work in Ghana you seriously need to study the customs, rules, some twi etc. Touching, embracing etc is so normal without any sexual connotations. Indeed, PDA is not very common.
For your information, 75% of Ghanaian society is matrelineal hence women are in control but subtly. So much so that a former military head of state had to distroy the Makola market because he claimed the market women were strangling the economy. You only need to go to our markets. So this talk about patriacal society détrimental to Ghana is wrong. We don't need à society where 75% of women are unmarried or single mothers, where men have become women, where kids have no fathers or father figures. If you have your fight with KAS Estates, please concentrate on it and stop denigrating Ghanaians, especially men. I am sure If had à man, he would have adviced you to act less emotionally. You have given crédence to notion of the "Angry African American Woman". As you may have noticed, the average Ghanaian is calm. hence the display such aggressive behaviour is not acceptable. The average Ghanaian avoids having contact with the Police, although in Ghana they are friendly and can be very efficient so you may well be adviced to avoid becoming thier "habitual client", or trouble maker, as is called in the profession. I personally lost money on two plots, under dubious circumstances in East Lagon but eventually got one whose value has multiplied by 50 times in 20 years because I was patient enough to accept another one which they proposed. You have à nice property which will give you good returns. You don't want to be labled a trouble maker. I hope this advice helps.
@@diannwhitaker6 What is the best way to avoid these kind of issues?
I'm a man that has yet to go to Ghana, but when I do I'll be looking for land (multiple acres) to purchase and I *DON'T* want to deal with anything that will make me be violent.
I really felt your sadness when you said you never were assaulted by anyone in the states not even a white man! SMH Good for you for refusing to accept this. I hope it works out for you over there, stay strong.
Thank you so much for this video. We need to really start female collective societies and groups to build momentum and end this nonsense. For women across Ghana who are new to the society we must have a digital group and physical meet ups. No one else is going to do this for us.
I’m down for that. I just read Zanzibar they do things in groups
@@iAmLeslieJones I am down for that too Leslie.
This is very very serious. Many of us are coming by the thousands and this crap must stop. We need to band together these male sexist very old society's existed for thousands of years is very very real. Jay Cameron and Go Black 2, Wodomya, are African well known You tubers must help by joining forces to protect black women expats from America, Canada, Scotland, UK and the Caribbean. They want a movement lets give them one because the African sisters who are not from the upper classes will not fight back. Many of us must send money towards your law suite. Good luck stay strong and know that the system has been broken. Can you contact the Odana Network?
I know this old but was a group ever created. I am interested.
Not that I know of sis.
Report the company and they will dealt with him this's not the behavior of a Ghanaian. He just among the bad nut and should be dealt with.
Thank you for speaking out and letting us know about this atrocity. Justice must be done. So sorry that this happened to you.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Well done sharing and bringing this forward. crazy business there.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
You've been so positive, never part of the any drama. So sorry this happened to you.
Wow so sorry to hear this.. this is disgusting.. don’t sweep this under the rug. This needs to be addressed ASAP. Shame on the system! We are our worst enemies.. keep doing what your doing don’t give up.. don’t give in. Praying for you sis❤🙏🏾
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
No excuses my friends. We expect better from public servants, considering what is at stake.
This is an importunity to find a long term solution to this problem. They should streamline the process. We don’t need any more bad publicity to fuel the naysayers in Africa and abroad.
I have contacted the Ghana office of the diaspora affairs about this incident. I have suggested that they should staff their office with diaspora Africans as well . This office should handle everything for the diaspora. From residential visa, to land acquisition, investments, health care and even plumbing maintenance work and waste collection. I mean everything. No more one-on-one talk with government officials. The Diaspora affairs office should handle it. They should recommend to the diaspora which contractors to hire, which real estate agency to consult, which family doctor to go to, etc...
We cant leave Africans from the diaspora to fend for themselves individually in Ghana or anywhere in Africa. A service specifically dedicated to the diaspora must be set up to handle settling process into a new the country. Please, go to the Ghana office of the diaspora affairs website. Write to them . Express your concerns.
Great idea.
No no terrible idea. We need to sort this out together not create a new segregated regime among ourselves. Then who will rule over the segregated state you would want to create? The same colonial powers we know so well?
@@Asantemanso24 I think you misunderstood me.
We are saying the same thing. Working together with the office of the Diaspora affairs in Ghana to streamline the process.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
@@nostalgiacampesina I hear your intentions are good don't get me wrong. My concerns are historical. When our feed family in the diaspora returned to Liberia from 1822 they established a segregated state. The division created a kind of apartheid that caused war and chaos between the returnees and those already there. It worked perfectly into the plans of Western nations to exploit the land while we were busy fighting each other. Unity in all things is the only way forward so change comes from within and comes to all in the land.
Put up or shut up!

I just found your channel, I have been beinge watching your videos, every obsticle you face you've handled it with so much patience and optimism. seeing you cry just broke me😥 even through this heartfelt video QUEEN your light still shines. I cant stop at this video I need to see you smiling again - New subscriber.
Omg! I appreciate your support new Member!! Your encouragement goes farther than you know. THANK YOU!
I’m soo incredibly sorry this happened to you Queen. That experience you endured is NOT okay! I will definitely be sharing this video with my networks and in the meantime I encourage you to stay safe, stand strong and hold them bastards accountable. Don’t worry. They gone fawk around, get surprised and find out why respect for women is the best policy!
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
I'm so sorry this happened to you! I was looking online for land and found this company a while ago. I read some reviews that gave me the impression they weren't trustworthy. Please stay safe..these folks are not good people.
I hope to find a male consigliary/advisor when I arrive...someone on salary, that knows the Ghanaian systems and can manage these types of interactions. I've been incredibly lucky in my travels on the continent and have met wonderful people. I will keep you in my thoughts...you have a warrior spirit and I know you will prevail. Stay strong my sister.

Just be careful out there, they always try to take advantage of diasporas. I’m talking as a Ghanaian. It’s always best to find a trusted person to lead you.
Leslie, I am so sorry you’re having to go thru this ordeal!! I’ve followed you from the beginning and believe you experienced these assaults! You’re doing the right thing, put names and faces to this offense!! Make Ghana safe for all women!! ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾

So sorry to hear about this queen
You are doing the right thing my child.africa need a mind clean up.this is crazy.Ghana is one of the first place on the continent people want to go and this,?no man 🇯🇲
I’m so sorry. I am praying for you. Thank you for sharing your story. I needed to know this. I will be there soon, but I will always have a way to protect myself. We are coming for a better way of life. Being traumatized in Ghana is not okay. I hate they stole your joy. Please be safe a guard yourself against these small me. Shalom ❤
Exactly if there's cumulative complaints then hopefully there will be uproar
What’s your email? I want to share with you what I am doing for us
This is so heart wrenching, so sorry you had to go through this . Stay strong Sis 💕.
There are many weak men in Ghana. The lack of integrity is so pervasive it makes me pause when thinking about moving there. I am sorry this happened to you, and I hope that you build relationships with some men who can step in for you when needed.
Now I know how the streets roll. My western mentality went to the law first but now I know. It’s different here.

Rent firts, stay a few months and see for your self if you really Want to live there. Dont go with rose tinted glasses...
Hay watch your mouth. Not only Ghana, this happens all over. Not only in Ghana. We condemn what happened to our sister. Don't make it as if this. Only happen in Ghana
@@ianbrighouse3056 I spent half of a year there. I enjoyed my experience and it changed my life. However, the lack of ethics and integrity is so rampant that it definitely makes me hesitant. I'm going to continue exploring Africa, but Ghana is an option at the moment.
This brings tears to my eyes, l can see the sadness and disappointment in your eyes, you're a good person down let this break you.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Wow. Just wow. I’m so sorry abt what happened to u. Ghana is truly one of the safest places in Africa and I’m disgusted abt what those men did. We r not like that and such things r rare. Once again, we r sorry
If this is one of the safest places in Africa, that's horrifying. We are fortunate she's as emotionally intelligent as she is, because who knows what would have happened if not. This is definitely a cautionary tale, worth every member of the diaspora hearing. How can a country ask us to return, to this barbaric treatment?
I'm so sorry this happened to you sis, it's so disheartening...definitely sharing this should've never happened 😪
Also 🙏🏾 protection, security & peace for you & all single women there in Ghana & all Diasporan's
Be blessed.
Thank your for sharing your experience. I’m sorry you are going through this. I’m not sure if it was your videos, but I heard about KAS estates too and has reach out to Mr. Manu some time ago. I am glad to know I should not continue dialogue with this company. The communication had fallen off anyway and I didn’t get a good feeling about it. This confirms my intuition. That said, I hope you have swift resolution with your land purchase. I’m praying God’s protection for you. Stay safe.
Your intuition never fails
Sorry to hear about that. As you said we need to remember these are corrupt, 3rd world counties that are far behind first world countries in many ways. I know we like to glorify the "motherland" and vilify the US and Europe this and that but we also need to pull our heads out of our asses and start living in reality. Not an attack on Ghana as i love doing short term vacations there but lets be realistic. There is a reason ghana ranks 133rd on the human development index. They have alot of work to do. Glad you spoke up though.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
This is horrible. More people need to speak up. Ghana end with the corruption. I believe her hundred percent!
I appreciate you
Leslie,
Trust me some of us have taken notes
In our Akan culture one does not lay hands on a woman period.
So they say your case may be week for lack of witnesses coming forward but there is also the saying that where there is the will there is Always a way..
We LOVE you Leslie and I speak for A LL the Ghanaian community based here in London. Hand on heart , though am not speaking for each member of the group, at the very least take note the majority including myself are on standby to engage your services period to do with land acquisition - the decision was made 10 days ago. So starting with me each one of us will also be shortly picking up the phone to discuss their individual needs with you very soon.. You touched on need for protection as a single lady and like to take it to next level time comes shortly.
Maximum apologies for your mishap but I thought you need to hear this to create a balance.
This is Nash from London.
I appreciate your support
Just a few months ago I was in a land litigation. It led to the police station. Trust me the unprofessionalism there is unbelievable. I had a female officer. She flirted will the male officers, hugging, dancing, running out the door after them, all while writing my report.
Even asking me for money to top off her phone in front of the people I was in litigation with.
She even said "oh don't worry you can give it to me in front of them it's no problem "
It's definitely frustrating to say the least.
Twilight zone
@@iAmLeslieJones exactly 💯.
@@iAmLeslieJones that's exactly what it is. It's almost unbelievable.
Wtf wow
In Kenya, this con case would make news headlines and this guy would be fired & in jail now..He grabbed you by your jaw too ? Kenya's cops would cook him alive.
Yes they will murder him there and then without due process
Most Black Americans go to Africa with all love but not understanding the African people would do almost anything for money , they will sweet talk you into trusting them so that you can part with your money . The country is 90% dishonest so you must make sure you have your people with you when dealing with buying land and don’t take short cuts follow the full legal process, have a hidden camera and mic to record all conversations and business transactions and no cash in exchanges , this is what I did with the extra mile of asking the seller to take make to his home and family them to let him know I’ll come for them if I can’t find him to kill him if he scam I even warned the lands commission . Mr salaam manu will not get away with what he did to this beautiful lady I am going to visit him to give him two options
Hi Leslie,
Sorry you have to go through all these. It’s rather unfortunate but trust me, until you get into any problem or scam in Ghana, you’ll never know there are strict laws out there. The government will support you. See help from the right people. All the best!
Who are the right people?
Hi Leslie, I am so touched by what happened to you. I'm a Ghanaian living in the UK
That shit is crazy. Ima change that when I get there. And that's right we got each other. Stay strong.
Indeed. Would’ve never guessed it.
I’m so angry. I’m having my house builed in Ghana. And I’ve been trying to get my daughter to move to Ghana and this happened to you. Don’t let this go. He needs to pay for this. Stay strong my sister
I’m pressing all the way ! This is bigger than me!
@@iAmLeslieJones ,what's bigger than you? Is the alleged culprit bigger than Gh? Get police involve and they will take him to court.
Did you report this to the Criminal Investigation Department? I was in a similar situation with land and m9ney taken and the CID did their best yo help me. This situation is one of many, and we need to get together and expose these scamming activities.
I think one other way to this “Call to Action “, would be to go on as many national syndicated radio shows as you possibly could, to put the system on blast. The powers that be, would, I would think rise to action in your favor. I’m a Ghanaian domicile in the United States and I’m appalled.
I appreciate you being an ally on this 🙏🏿
Keep doing what you’re doing pathfinders
💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Lol he would no longer be in existence 😂 I’m so glad I’m seeing this
Thank you for sharing. I am a single woman who intends to purchase land in Ghana. I definitely will NOT deal with KAS. Maybe if the realize that there are consequences for their actions. We can not change the way that laws are enforced in Ghana but we can send a definitive message that expats expect to be respected and treated as people. If you want us to give what we have to help build your country; we must be treated with decency and respect at a minimum. I will carry my money to where I find quality service.
I totally agree.
This is excessive and not helping us to come home! This will not happen to the others! It's the land of our ancestors that we have stolen from us! This is part of why we can't be one! It's sad 😭 to hear this happen to a person like ❤️ we must work to make it better 👍 the brainwash of retribution on woman in Africa are at the highest level and it's need to stop ⛔ we are coming home and must protect ourself! We have to put in place a commission to deal with this as a diaspora! I am with you! Thank you for sharing shalom
If the elders of you family didn’t pass down the history of being on the slave ships, sorry to break it to you…it never happened!!!
Propaganda will have you lost and confused, believing a lie.
Peace and blessings sis im in ghana now and your testimony is extremely useful for anyone from the states or anywhere else
Lawrence. Thanks for watching. That is exactly why I made the video. It’s about helping others at this point.
I'm in ghana and would like to contact you how can you be reached
Thank you for sharing your experience. It's important for the diaspora to get an objective and complete picture. Be careful, we don't need you to become a hashtag in order to make a point. You shouldn't have to bear the burden alone. God is watching! 🙏🏿🤲🏿
Young sister I am so sorry you were assaulted but very proud of you for sharing this bad and ugly for the world to see. The damage runs deep and multi leveled - physical, mental, emotional etc. mixed with their own original ish. I'm guessing they've never done this to Chinese, Arabs, Indians etc. Get my drift. Go forth bravely and fiercely --- with protection!! We have to fight all the way back to righteousness. Blessings young one.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Sorry to hear about this. It's inspiring to see that you are turning ypur experoence into something positive - a call for action. May God continue to give you wisdom, protection, and peace. 🙏🏾❤
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

I really don’t understand why some people easily take advantage like that. Really sorry you had to go through these. Ghana has issues when it comes to acquiring land, there is always land disputes etc. it’s either one thing or another.
HUMAN LIFE and DIGNITY is MORE IMPORTANT than LAND💯FACTS 💚💛❤
Hey, so sorry you had to go through this, sounds like most men there are insecure and intimidated by a powerful woman. I hope that someone who is powerful there and is really wanting to have change and development in Ghana is watching this and helps you to take action against this ridiculousness that's going on there
I agree with everything you are saying Fernando. I appreciate your support.
It is not even about a guy wanting to act Macho. Far from it. He is a coward picking on a defenseless lady. This guy is acting like a typical corrupt and selfish African government official. They don't respect themselves, nor their country's reputation. The real evil. People like these had been ruling in Africa for a long time. Reasons why the continent is lagging behind in various domains.
Problem is SHE IS EDUCATED and they see her as a threat. They tried to dupe her and FAILED. She has to be CAREFUL as life is cheap and they are corrupt to the core. África good for a holiday the rest no way.
@@ianbrighouse3056 good for holiday? You must be kindly me. Why do you go for holiday than? Nonsense!
@@aamo557 Lets fix it my friend. This is serious. It is hurting.
Sis, you are a strong, powerful, & intelligent black woman. So sorry this happened to you. Keep your head up and continue your path. I am in the US rooting for you and your journey back to the Motherland. Salaam will reap what he sows.
Thanks Queen 🙏🏿
Hi ,
Sorry to hear.
I am surprise because this is not normal in Ghana.
Very surprised.
Stay blessed my sister.
From your brother: Ghana Black star
Thanks for the encouragement
I'm so sorry this happened to you Sister, you are such a lovely person. Hopefully you get this sorted and don't be discouraged by the actions of these weak men. ❤️❤️❤️
I’m so sorry that this happened to you..I know of their patriarchal system and I have a brother that adopted me into his family for protection from things like this..It’s a shame that it has to be done that way for now anyways …I pray for your protection and strength.🙏🏽❤️thank you for sharing🙏🏽
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
From the Uk...Sis stay strong.
I would recommend reaching out to Wode Maya.He knows alot of government officials.And influential people in Ghana.
In some countries,it's not about what you now,but who you now.
Thank you for letting people know about kAS,ripping people off.
The local government there in Ghana needs to make this right.
I hope Jay, Vanessa kanbi, wode Maya and other youtubers make some noise on this as well
Incompetent services are one thing, ASSAULT is another
Wode Maya wouldn't do a video and tell people the truth about what is going on in Ghana 🇬🇭, all they're doing keep pushing people to come home. When they know setting things are are not good in the eg very bad health care system, rubbish educational system, abusing women on all levels and bad security system. All this things are there but they won't address it for the government to do something about rather promoting Africa with his eyes closed.
My sister it looks like you need to put together a team through your RUclips channel and this video is a start and I will join your team!
I’m so grateful for the support. The response is definitely showing a team needs to be made. Definitely want to start with the right organization as well. Thx for watching.
We will all join
Thanks for this info sis will definitely share and pls don't let this stop you from what you are doing
Ok thank you
We Ghanaians apologize. Please continue to love Ghana and establish your business.
This is so 😔 sad. Thank you for we needed to know. Shame on them.
