You mean to tell me, that Ghanaians from around the world can live and enjoy Ghanaians citizenship, as Ghana even proudly gives citizenship to other Black people, that they’ve been ignoring those born in The Gambia?
Ghana Town in The Gambia is filled with Ghanaians who are stateless people! This is disgusting!
“We were the first kids of this town over fifty years ago. Most of the founders have passed on, leaving behind their children and grandchildren. I see these residents as worthy nationals just as any other Gambian,” said Aminata. Her role at the exercise was to help verify if any non-members of the community attempt to join the exercise and get registered. To the Alkalo of Brufut, Amie holds institutional memory of Ghana Town, herself residing with the community.
