My message to all African American leaving in America and elsewhere must come together as One Africans and come to Ghana and see where they are coming from.one beautiful thing that we have to know as Africans is that Black is beauty and before we leave up to our expectations as Africans we have to be united because Africa is the largest continent in the world.Africans we are very intelligent and strong so I believed if we come together as one we can do better.come home and help build Ghana and Africa as a whole.we have good weather conditions and everything yet Africa goes down because of bad leaders.
Do the tourism board have any respect at all to take visitors to a rotten filthy dirty beaches in Accra? hence disgracing Ghana? How much effort does it take to clean that smelly rotten James Town beach?. This is a disgrace and shameful to say the least. Ghana needs to do better in cleaning the filth at some of these tourist attractions. Shame on them.
Huh! 48 castles was built in Western African Coastal regions. And out of that number 42 is found in Ghana, what a heck! 😬. Salaga in Northern Ghana is the oldest town in West Africa, and was the center of slaves market where people was brought from other part of the region and sold to European, which they then send down south to the various castles. Ghana we deserve compensation for the demage this European caused on our soil. Our family, gold, diamond, copper etc was taking out forceful. How comes a small country like Ghana almost all the Europeans countries step inside for barbaric reasons. 17th century, over 7,000 people massacre, thousands was displaced, hundreds was captured between Yendi and Adigbo by this wicked people. We can not forget this incidents. Thnx God it's been recorded on our books. We need an apology and compassions cos thus, atrocity has hindered us in the past.
@Anthony Lynch In as much as I would believe u, I disagree with you cos it lacks logical points and I would prove u why. I heard so many people holding that your view too, even some personnel at Elmina the dungeon who give history there. And That is completely distorted facts, the main factor of the slave captivity was to be use as manpower in American and European farms. So according to what I read on books and oral history in some tribes in Ghana, I realized that they were capturing and selling people who resist their occupancies, by fighting back etc. e.g, Adigbo war in northern Ghana, and Ashanti war. Thus, Both wars thousands of the local tribesmen were overpowered and killed, captured, sent away, others were misplaced and their villages was burned down, that was the Dagombas, and the Ashanti's too including the Ashanti king who was captured too n sent to an island. Again, they was some white merchants with their ships at shores, who was equipped with weapons, hunting and capturing women, children and vulnerable men they found along their expedition or farms etc, the merchants may have had indigenous whom were helping them with on the cause. These merchants case can be proven when u visit the Salaga slave market center in Northern Ghana were they the items still preserved. There were other few factors behind to back it then jumped job to conclude that the blacks was the one selling their own people was totally wrong and lack merits, there is no logic about your claims. Africa wasn't a dark continent when the whitemen arrived with the evil mindset, please research about some of the earlier histories in Africa like Ghana Empire, or research about the Dagomba kingdom, the Hausa kingdom, the Sudan empire, the Ethiopia empire etc. These people was already civilized n have their organize well structured government or rulers who ruled their people before the white entered through backdoor and begans to terrorise them with modern guns. Who would have bypass our chief and kings to sell our own or family's out to strangers who terrorise, killed n forceful occupied our lands. Yes they having blacks who save them and helping them through the cause and this people were those they first made friends with in the Coastal areas.
Sorry Saadi, why are you demanding compensation from Ghana?. I think you believe the history of lies and propaganda that have been sold to us when they say we sold our own brothers and sisters to people who intend to kill them. This is not in our DNA. We were not built like that. So let’s start breaking this down into simple logic and facts. They were the ones who controlled the country, they were the ones who ruled the country, they were the ones who had the vehicle and guns and bullets to kill anyone who resisted, they were the ones who build the castles to hold , rape and transport our people, they were the ones who built huge ships capable of holding 1000s of people and sail away to faraway land, and when the ships were unable to hold it people some were drop in the ocean and they were the ones who travel thousands of miles from their country to Ghana WITH A MISSION. As an anology if a thief comes to your house, you don’t collect your goods and give to them, you fight them, and when you are over powered with guns there is nothing you can do about it. If you don’t buy my argument just look back in history and even today and see what they did in other africa countries. Just look up what happened in South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe etc. you can’t still argue that these countries sold their land and their to the same foreigners who came to take over their land and steal. I wish that people can understand this propaganda machine that always tells one side of the story, which is meant to convince people like you.
Anthony Lynch don’t stress yourself too much with this Saadi guy, he has obviously been indoctrinated with the propaganda lies, and he has bought into it
Asante AkanYes there is but it is more of a Fort not a Castle ... it’s called Fort Prinzenstein in Keta , Volta Region. Just google it or if you line in Ghana , just go there and you will see it has the same slave dungeons as the Elmina and Cape Coast dungeons . Pretty much the same .
