The problem is this, we ghanaians living abroad make those back home feel like it's so easy out here. People will come online and throw dust into people's eyes making them believe once you make it abroad, you're wealthy so people just want to take from you. And the annoying part is, they never take responsibility, it's always someone's fault especially politicians.
@@okey9236 yes, no where is perfect. But at least in some places there is a system in place that prevents corruption and eventually people do get caught. But in Ghana there is no paper trace. Doesn’t it concern you that your fellow Ghanaian is saying not to trust your own people? Also it seems like most Ghanaians always have a hidden agenda. Their friendship is not always genuine.
When renting or buying a place I would also add... Check it out in heavy rain (or ask the neighbors). A property can look so great when the weather is fair and turn into a rushing torrent when the rains come.
YES! Check out the nearby churches before you commit to a long-term lease or purchase. We rented across the street from the main mosque in Libya Quarters. There is nothing quite like waking to the 4AM call-to-prayer and listening to the local dogs howling along. ;-) And those all-night prayer vigils at the neighborhood Pentacostal Church can be amazingly energetic at 2AM!
A (local) co-worker of mine put down 50k Ghana Cedis in deposit for a land purchase (cash, of course). And that was the last they ever saw of him. It was so discouraging. Land title and proof of ownership have got to be one of the big challenges in Ghana.
I love how you two have grown to understand the "Ghana system" and offering useful tips for others wanting to move here. Many expats make these mistakes which end up making their experience a horrible one, causing them to move back to the US or Europe. So thanks Ayo and Tony for sharing your mistakes so others don't make them. One thing I'll add though, which was the 1st thing you mentioned is that not trusting people blindly cuts across from the US, to Europe to Asia and Africa. So this is the number one caution to everyone regardless of where you re moving to. There are shady people everywhere ready to take advantage, especially when they know you are new to the place and unfamiliar with how the system works. They often approach with a super nice attitude, yet their intention is to scam you. So please be careful not to trust people too easily just cus they've been nice to you.
I spent two weeks in Ghana recently and l did not eat any street food. I was not taking any chances. I walked with all my medications but l did not need it.
This is very true. You need a thousand thumbs up for this comment. In the military, a veteran told me never trust anyone. I was an optimist at the time....,not anymore. People looking at opportunities, are like those wolves in cartoons when the person they are looking at turns into a delicious cooked chicken leg,
It's just really interesting how when you all were coming, you all were bright eyed and bushy tailed, but now you all have that 'Ghana glaze' lolll a tinge of skepticism with basically everything ( and tbh a bit of weariness lol) .
Hi family you are on point about the street food. The papaya and pineapple got me too, the plantain chips got my daughter. Luckily I travel with my Imodium and Pepcid. Thanks Tony and Ayo for this.
Check out the school first is great advice! And if it's not about school but about your place of employment, the same applies. I commuted from Madina to Circle for work for over a year. The 6AM trotro to Circle wasn't bad, but man, that return trip to Madina at 5PM was a NIGHTMARE!
Hi I have a girlfriend who is from Ghana and she had family members build her a three bedroom home two bath for $70,000. American dollars. Well the person she trusted never finished the house for her. And then later on her land some one stole off the roof supplies while she was back in the states and she spoke the language. Very sad. Now she is refusing to return and has decided in old age to just stay in USA.
I really agree with "keep your circle small." Reputation is important. And you and others will ruin their reputation in that small circle if they can't be trusted.
Great viewpoints, I love how thought your viewpoints are when addressing conversations like this. It ensures how genuine you are about Ghana and their people and you guys are great representation for African Americans in the continent of Africa. 👍🏿
We get land scams in Louisiana all the time. "Going with a company" is advice to be followed everywhere in the world. Even after everything is registered you could still lose your land. Same applies o the rest of the US.
@BlackPowerForever - Love that! Thanks for the comment ❤️️🇬🇭❤️️. We really appreciate viewers like you that understand the mission. Glad the information we provide is helpful and thanks for the contribution. See you in Ghana, Ayo and Tony.
Hey Mr. Tony & Mrs. Ayo Sorry that I was not able to watch the live on Friday night . Very busy preparing strategies for my projects & winding down my stay. How are the boys doing ? Will keep in touch when I return to the states as well as in - person meet & Greet events here in Ghana .Sister Acouvi - Georgia peach residing in NY.
What's your Facebook group? Being here can be quite lonely. I've made multiple friendships which always end in people asking me to give money or loan money. Smh.
It's the same for everyone who travels to a new place, it can be quite lonely and hectic. Been living in America for 10years but still feels like that to me. Recently relocated to Ghana cos I was getting stressed out.
Please if you live more than 2 or 3 months away from Ghana, remember you don't need to drink pure water or beer for the first 2 or 3 days but you only need to take coconut water to avoid stomach running or stomach problems , this is very helpful advice. Thanx.
Your FB group truly is excellent. I have met with two ladies from the group. I saw one of them only two days ago. The group does help you feel more at home while in Ghana. ❤
The word of Yah said to trust no man, trust is earned but as a people we give it away to quickly always use discernment given by Yah. The Holy Spirit will lead you, him you can trust.
Kinda sad, particularly the 'trust no one' advise, but I always knew that, so not really surprised. What surprises me is how many people relocate there.
@Bernie Lea - You have to come and you will understand. There is no place on Earth that is a utopia. Ghana has issues but they are tolerable and thanks for the comment 😊!
Wow knew about checking house out in the rainy season to avoid floods and leaks and mudslides but never knew about loud church services or neighbors with resident home businesses? Thanks for info who knew about church issues amazing?
Really appreciate the insight. I'm in Canada and looking to buy land in Ghana particularly in the Volta Region. My son has been following you guys for more than a year. After my first failed attempt to purchase he reminded me to check out your videos again.
Love your advice, if you are in Accra school and your house should be close together. In other cities it far easier, it takes us only 20 Min. to town with the car. Consider regional cities
The school and finding a place was a really good idea. Yes checking the area around the place multiple times. This past airbnb we were right next to a church and a mosque. The first time only the roosters bothered me.
Here in Ghana a lot of dialogue are in proverbs, so certain things maybe said to you but really have different interpretations and understanding. So I think you should asked more questions to understand everything been said to you as an advice.I really enjoy the video. Nice blog
Please tell me what Bank in Ghana can be trusted. One You tube viewer stated she had trouble at the ATM machine on a week end and she needed the money to eat and move about at other hotels. Also what Bank in United states will allow transfer of large funds when trying to purchase land or beach front property. I saw one You tube view who said her chase bank refuse to send her money quickly? As a matter of fact it took over three weeks?
It depends on who you meet to buy a land.There are several fertile lands here in the countryside so I still can't get it why people want to by-force live in the city which is more expensive.
@@fredkofiodoom5499 My fiancé wasn't raised in the countryside. He was raised in the city. The countryside is not his personal preference. Also, all his family lives in the city so being so far away when we only visit for one month would make it hard. However, yes living outside the city is possible and we went to the mountains to visit and it was a beautiful area visual. I would only like for vacation but yes others would love it out there if they didn't mind being away from the luxuries of the city everyday.
@@Mystr438 that is true. We obly had one option for the road and the road was not mainted. It had a compact sedan size whole directly in the middle and you had to drive on the sides. We went on a dry day but having to maneuver and it rains that has to be really difficult because you are likely to get stuck driving one half on the dirt still.

I got the stomach bug this second time around visiting. Not sure what it was but luckily it didn't last long. My fiancé felt so bad but it wasn't his fault. I felt much better one i got some medicine.
Because it took over three weeks to get a large wire of cash she was forced to change her departure date and had to re adjust her hotel arrangements to a Airbnb? I guess emergency funds is always necessary?
Lol. All this is true. Most is not applicable to me cause I would have shipped my car from the US and don't trust the US so I definitely wouldn't trust it anywhere else where I don't know the language. Another thing to mention is check everything when you are renting, Airbnb, hotel.

In Ghana trust is good but kindly verify. Very important. Bought a land from a friend and did not do the necessary checks, half way through building someone shows up and claiming it. We r In court.
Trust No One is general advice to live by anywhere. In the case of Ghana and by extension anywhere in the world, don't trust anyone when parting with money or when making a major financial commitment. Alternatively, h ow about find someone you can trust like Expat Ghana and still verify 😀
I just watched y’all’s video. I’m from Chicagoland. The information that you all disseminated was full of understanding and wisdom. This is very helpful to those not only in foreign lands but also here. Thank Y’all for sharing. I’m glad that y’all have each other and family. I’m glad that you all are making it and enjoying the ride!
How beautiful people, looking cute in the outfits.... I agree with you,they will spend all the money......you give to them. for a project......do not give your money....nooooo.
My fiancé is trying to get a passport for his mother. She doesn't have paperwork because she grew up in a village and it has been difficult. It takes much longer process there than doing it through the embassy in the states. Yes sometimes it is knowing a connect or having tips from someone who has done the process before.
I have watched only the beginning of the video and already feel the need to comment. Trusting a person to be truthful and honest and trusting the society and authorities to be trustworthy is complicated and interesting question. There is also the reverse effect that some immigrants from Africa seem to do some self harm by not trusting authorities and the system in places where they actually could and should trust more. In all societies there are people with weaker minds, criminals, sociopaths, psychopaths... , I am not trying to say that one should stupidly trust everyone. Not at all. Some immigrants seem to be trying to get around guidelines without understanding the real benefits it would offer them. It is not only African immigrants. Some others have some similar trusting issues, which make their life unnecessarily difficult. It also effects the society around them. They will have difficulty in settling down, becoming part of the society. COVID-19 prevention guidelines initially, where a case where it was clear that some foreign language immigrant groups didn't trust the information and follow the guidelines given by the authorities. Because of this they where initially hard hit by infections. It is difficult for the society, if some groups stay isolated and mistrusting, since then they will fall behind in all fields of life: health-care, education, employment, culture..
A bit of advice I received... Do not leave your drink unattended. If you leave the table finish your drink. I suppose this is now common advice everywhere, but I'm not a "Clubber" so I guess I'm still a bit naive.
As a Ghanaian it’s really sad to hear that these are still happening in Ghana. Corruption will be the down fall of us🤦🏽♂️
Don’t feel bad, it’s same feeling of any South American!
The problem is this, we ghanaians living abroad make those back home feel like it's so easy out here. People will come online and throw dust into people's eyes making them believe once you make it abroad, you're wealthy so people just want to take from you.

YES! Check out the nearby churches before you commit to a long-term lease or purchase. We rented across the street from the main mosque in Libya Quarters. There is nothing quite like waking to the 4AM call-to-prayer and listening to the local dogs howling along. ;-) And those all-night prayer vigils at the neighborhood Pentacostal Church can be amazingly energetic at 2AM!
I rented a house in Yugoslavia Kosovo right next to mosque, l can’t explain how l felt the unexpected morning awakening.
