This is an unpardonable incidence. The immigration officers should rise above such low-level thinking that someone with a "White skin color" cannot be a Ghanaian.
What sort of training do they have?
This is absolute disgusting, barbarism and unqualified officers. Correction Kofi, One can also become a Ghanaian citizen by marriage, adoption, asylum, humanitarian protection etc.
I won’t be surprised if these lunatics t ...

These stupid boys must me sacked outrightly. Very senseless act. And I'm sure the guy was even speaking Twi with them. Idiots
We eat others' SHIT but no one eats our SHIT! Such depraved souls!
It's a calculated brutality. They wanna instill fear in "foreigners" leading up to the election.
Idiot go and sack them, did that white boy looks like Ghanaians ? If white people need slaves we Africans don't need no slaves.
I think you can do better than that. Even if the guy is not a Ghanaian, he does not deserve what the immigration officers did to him. I would not be surprised if the guy refused to give the immigration officers a little somet ...

This is Npp illiterate party boy recruited into the immigration service

THESE PIGS COMPLAIN ABOUT BRUTALITIES DURING JUNE 4TH DAYS AND YET THEIR FOOL SOLDIERS INDULGE IN SUCH NONSENSE IN OUR 'DEMOCRATIC' SOCIETY!
Those racists and tribalistic officers should be brought to book, we can't allow our public institutions image to drag into the mud. Even if he's acquired the socalled Ghana card, illigally, and resisted arrest, beatings and ...

did you say that, try the western countries, anytime you resist arrest there is a 99.99% chance that you will be shot and killed
Rise above what? They should be sacked. Nkurasesem saa! So even if he is not a Ghanaian is that how to accost him in a shop? This is the result partisan recruitment by both the NPP and NDC.
With all the destructions and pain caused by Fulani people when has the immigration service personnel ever accosted a Fulani to find out if they have the right to be in the country or present themselves as Ghanaians? Is it in ...

Bro, you are right they will never there ask any Nigerian for their Ghana Card, all they know is begging at KIA.
When they see British Airways, KLM, America Airways etc.. you see them happy as if God just landed..
Ghana is not a police state , you do ot go asking people for their ID card in any Anglophone countries.
This is not done.
The security agencies have the right to question anyone anytime if they have reasonable cause to do so. Lets not blow this out of proportion. They acted based on suspicion and the man has the burden to convince them and to fi ...

Disgraceful. Simple decency is lacking. Just verification of identity turns into a boxing match. Backwardness!

So if he's not Ghanaian are you suppose to beat him? This country is becoming lawless. People who are supposed to uphold the law behave this way? Hmm
The officers wanted to take him to the office but he was struggling with the officers, he started the fight because he thought he is white Ghanaian and he can disrespect Ghanaians in their own land. He need proper beatings an ...

Akyem mafias. Check their background and see. Street boys given a week training. A disgraceful being like their grandfather. Nadda.
This is what happens when illiterate people are enlisted into an organization.
The immigration officers must be punished. These beggars from Niger and Nigeria are roaming free and sleeping rough and they don’t see that . Someone living his life and going about his business is being targeted for what??
The Immigration idiots thought the guy was a foreigner so they can take bribe (dollars) from him. Failing that they became frustrated and beat him. Akuffo Addo will give them medals for their act.
In the video i didn't see any immigration officer landing a blow. Its rather Michael who was throwing failed punches. But wait ooh, if a Whiteman had done this to a blackman abroad everyone will be shouting racism!
So, from a few seconds of video, you can conclude this? Then I guess he beat himself up...that is why his face is beaten up and bloodied.
The gentleman is only saying what he has also seen… looking at the caption of the video its obvious KofiTv is only trying to twist the story. If a law enforcement agency arrests you, and you resist, the right amount of forc ...

What a disgrace !
I think those Immigration Officers should face the consequences of their actions
Also they should require some training should be taken seriously
Ain't there blacks who are nationalized in the whiteman's land? Then also cry foul and racism upon the least provocation. Nonsense!
They should interdict those foolish immigration officers for unprofessional conduct.
Where in the laws of Gjana does it say immigration officers should beat foreign offenders? Unprofessionalism all over the place. This guys should be jailes. The guy should sue
Poorly trained.
If even they where right, is that how to treat a non Ghanaian. Moreover that was not a border town. Uneducated party boys.
I was returning from Ghana last year. At airport the immigration officier asked me about my Ghana card knowing very well that i am a holder of a foreign passport. You are giving visitors ghana cards and now going arround aski ...

Lock these Immigration bastards up. What behaviour is this.
Another reason why Dutch passport is better.
Our security people are all corrupt. The law should take its course else they will continue to be disgracing the nation. Have they rounded up the illegal galamsy Chinese and the Niger and Mali guys
are you this is not FAKE news?
What crimes this man committed before he deserved beaten like that?. Even if he is a foreigner he can not do chopping in Ghana mall?. People are losing their mind in this country. Because his color is white that's why you are ...

The immigration officers should all face the law, prosecuted and if found guilty, they should be jailed.

Ghana is a failed state.

This is what happens when you employ party foot soldiers who didn't even finish high school.
True… but know that this is also what happens when you resist arrest by throwing punches at law enforcement officers. Don’t look at one side alone, look at it as a whole.
And we should care why? The whites are attacking Ghanaians and other Black Africans that are legally in their countries. Look what they just did to a Ghanaian man and his young daughters in Germany.
Our laws must work! The 'thought' they were applying the law to the guy and the same laws of the land must be applied to them too. Have they not seen all the immigrants destroying our forests and water bodies? Have they not ...

The immigration officers should be punished severely for their unprofessional behaviour. So even if he is not a Ghanaian, is that the way to go about it?.
They should be sacked to serve as a deterrence to others.
A thorough investigation must be done and all culpable Officers should be severely punished.
Nigerians should be targeted, they are the ones causing problems.
Target Nigerians. And Nigerians will also target Ghanaians. Idiot! Do you think Ghana is heaven? Foolish man. Your hate for Nigeria smells. They have not ask you for gas supply debt you all started crying. Ghanaians don't res ...
