RAWLINGS, KUFUOR AND MAHAMA'S TRAVEL DESTINATIONS AND VISA ARRANGEMENTS ARE BULLSHIP TO GHANAIANS. We don't care if they travel to the moon for good or return. We care more about food, jobs and some order. The US Embassy shouldn't make this The News.

The former UK consulate had set a precedence for being in our local affairs and many stupid Ghanaian "book-longs" had fell for it specially dummies in the media. Now that he's gone. this US albino has taken over. wearing ntuma shirts as if he's one of us, all in an "PSYCHOLOGICAL" effort to get into our minds and started undermining us. They use. their newly won platform with the Ghanaian populace to "undermine" the government.
Ghanaians beware of SNAKES.

You all remember how that boy named Benjamin became the go-to-person our lazy pale-skin worshiping journalists would run to for his opinion on vital national discussions he the consulate had no business involving himself in to.

How many African consulates get involve in the lives of Blacks in the US or UK even though we have a direct blood link with them. We do not make statements when they're killed by racist pale skinned police, but this US consulate got the audacity to visit the Volta Region and talk about child labor and no one could take him on?

Which of the two is more gross, inhumane and immoral, black people of our blood line thrown into prison and making 80% of the 2,000,000 plus prison population and used for slave labor and child labor in VR?

I share your line of argument. I wish we would not ignore our unpleasant experience we've had with the colonizers cum slave masters, but use it as an eye opener, and call them to order when required. Their whole being is borne out of sheer arrogance. Irrespective of whose territory they happen to be, they assume paternalistic stance. The last time I checked only the serpent in the Garden of Eden suscribes to that attitude.

STONE, I AGREE MOST BLACK MEN ARE LAZY, MOST, NOT ALL, IF THE CAP IF YOU WEAR IT, BUT BLACK are not the only corrupt people in the world please. WE BLACKS ARE RATHER PESSIMISTIC! JUST LIKE YOU ARE POSTING YOURSELF HERE NOT, ARE THERE NOR CROOK JUDGES, LAWYERS, BUSINESSMEN, PASTORS,NURSES, DOCTORS LIKE YOU FIND HERE, ARE THERE NOT ALOT OF PEDOPHILES, CHILD ABUSERS AND OF WHITE ORIGIN TOO, BUT AMERICAN AS ONE COUNTRY FOCUSES AND LOOKS ATE THE GOOD SIDE, WHILST WE BLACKS FORCUS ON OUR WORST, STONE ARE YOU GREEDY, SELFISH, A THIEF OR LAZY? WE AS A COUNTRY do not GO to BEG ANY COUNTRY, LIKE A BANK AND AS IN LIFE, SOME PEOPLE WILL HAVE MORE MONEY AND OTHER THINGS YOU MAY HAVE THAN YOU INCLUDING POWER IN MANY FORM, WE GO IN FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, WHICH WE pay! WHEN YOU GET FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IN THE FORM OF LOAN, IT IS NOT FREE, THOSE WHO GRANTED THE LOAN KNEW WE COULD PAY. WE NEED TO DEVELOP A POSITIVE MENTAL ATTITUDE AS BLACKS WITH PRIDE IN OUR IDENTITY, ALL MEN JAPANESE, CHINESE, AMERICANS(WHITES) ETC HAVE THEIR OWN FAIR SHARE OF LAZY, GREEDY AND THIEVES. AMERICA HAS ABOUT 308,745,538 MILLION PEOPLE OF WHICH 43.1 MILLION ARE WITHIN THE POVERTY LINE, 19.4 MILLION ARE IN DEEP POVERTY, DON'T GIVE ME THAT AFRICAN CRAP STATEMENT" but it is better", IF YOU SAY THIS TO THE HEARING OF ANY OF THESE POOR AMERICAN, THEY WILL LYNCH YOU, POVERTY IS NOT BETTER ANYWHERE, AND IT CANNOT BE COMPARED! PLEASE AS BLACKS WE ARE NOT UNITED IN MOVING FORWARD, WE HAVE NOT found and given yourself the direction to follow and go, WE ARE VERY INDIVIDUALISTIC, THIS IS WHAT PRODUCES LAZINESS, GREED AND SELFISHNESS. AFTER 60 YEARS WE ARE STILL STRUGGLING WHY, BECAUSE INSTEAD OF FINDING THE GOAL AND DIRECTION TO FOCUS ON AND WORK ALONG THEM, BECAUSE OF VAINGLORY, WE ARE RATHER THROWING AWAY WHAT OUR FOREFATHERS HAVE DONE, AND INTRODUCE NEW DIRECTIONS THAT IS ALSO ABANDONED AFTER THE FELLOW LEAVES. WHY AFTER 60 YEARS ARE WE DEBATING WHAT KWAME NKRUMAH DID AND WHAT HE IS, AS JB DANQUAH? IF NANA ADDO HIS RELATIVE HAD NOT BECOME PRESIDENT, WOULD WE BE WASTING TIME ON THIS HISTORICAL FACTS PLACED IN OUR BOOKS LONG AGO? NANA ADDO IS WASTING HIS TIME, WHY BECAUSE HE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO AND CAN REWRITE HISTORY, THE STORY OF KWAME NKRUMAH AND JB DANQUAH IS FOREVER SETTLED! HE CANNOT REMOVE THE MONSELEUM, REMOVE THE FACTS IN OUR HISTORY BOOKS USED FOR BECE, WASSCC, AND THAT USED FOR THE UNIVERSITY LEVEL, HE NANA ADDO CAN NEVER GO TO ADDIS ABBA AND ASKBTHE AU TO REMOVE THE STATUE OF KWAME FROM THE HQ OF THE AU, NANA ADDO CAN NEVER BURN DOWN THE DUBOIS AND CORNELL UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES IN ACCRA AND IN THE USA. HE SHOULD IF WISE KNOW THIS, AND RATHER WORK ON GETTING HIS CAMPAIGN PROMISES FULFILLED

Why did the NDC decide to give diplomatic passports to MPs, their wives and their children? That was complete nonsense. Kwesi Pratt and other NDC supporters also got such passports. The Americans are right.

You're just a lying idiot. It looks like your brain is baked and burnt. Check the history of diplomatic passports and it predates the 4thd republic. So where is the NDC in this?

" If you are travelling for tourism or business that is not related to government business, you will be required to make a personal appearance even with former Presidents. There are no exceptions.”

That doesn't square with the first paragraph that states that the three living presidents will not have to appear in person for non-official visit visas.

So what is what?

Ghanaian leaders can never achieve anything great. Ghanaian politics is about corruption and pride. Their own pride is their god.

An example is Bawumia the talkative, he also seem to lack common sense (Phd and all). According to Bawumia China would give Ghana $15 billion. Recent memory tells us the Chinese could NOT fulfill a promise for $5 billion. It also clear the Chinese employ this game of lies for favors in contract awards for Chinese companies.

The $15 billion is the most stupid and demeaning thing ever in Ghanaian politics.

I really have no problem with foreign diplomatic missions in Ghana tightening the regulations for the issuance of visas. When public officials abuse their privileges, there ought to be consequences. I am glad, however, that the US Embassy has exempted former heads of state from its stricter new visa rules. To require ex-presidents to stand in line like ordinary citizens to apply for a visa would have amounted to a national humiliation.

I am US citizen and an active duty US military. I apply for a US visa for my mother to come help out my wife while I was on military deployment. My wife was pregnant and we also have 2 years old . We had just moved to the new duty station so we didn't have friends or anyone to help my wife while I was gone. Story short, the US embassy denied my mother the visa. They are not an organization you can reason with. They do whatever they want.

Having a diplomatic passport doesn't mean you DON'T need a visa to travel. Visa issuance is not controlled by Ghanaians. Therefore Ghana's corrupt Min. of Foreign Affairs can decide to issue those MPS and Cabinet Ministers all the diplomatic passports they want for their girlfriends, concubines, wives, children, relatives. But visas are issued by embassies, high commissions and consulates, and therefore will not and cannot kowtow to the corruption being undertaken by these Ghanaians.
