The Ghanaian government has agreed to relocate its citizen, Emmanuel Asamoah, a victim of a xenophobic attack in South Africa, back to the country at full cost. Asamoah was seen in a viral video being accosted by a group of South Africans who accused him of illegally residing in their country. They alleged that he conspired with fraudulent police officers to obtain a resident permit.
In the video, a woman told him: 'We don't want Africans here anymore. We're tired of seeing African migrants moving all over the world, refusing to fix their own countries. We're making it clear: we don't want you here. You know you're visitors, yet you've decided to integrate into our communities. Can we come to Ghana and do what you're doing?'
Emmanuel later spoke with a TV station and called on his fellow Ghanaians to join him in returning home to build their own country. During a TV interview, Ghanaian Minister of Foreign Affairs Samuel Ablakwa confirmed that Emmanuel had been located and would be relocated at no cost to him.
