    Your family could manage to give out GHC20,000( 200,000 Cedis) to free you from Iraq, but could not give that money to you to start a business in Ghana. It shows there is something wrong with you and your family

    Old currency i guess which is equivalent to new 20,000ghs. But why go to Iraq? When i hear Iraq, Yemen and Afghanistan, immediately war comes to mind. Scary places to be. It's 10X better to be in Ghana than any of those.

    Arabs don't like black Africans and so why do some Ghanaian ladies go to Arabic countries to work as house helps?

  • Pelicles 3 weeks ago

    To the average Ghanaian, even Afghanistan is more livable than Ghana. So, do people learn geography to know more about countries etc?
