sharaaap na by force to come to Ghana? tell OP to go to Maiduguri for her next vacation. I am sure she'll be better treatment, aka Boho Haram style,huh?

did the story make sense to you? she saidss the manager started ignoring her when he realiseds she was not white. ask OP whether she spoke in American/British accent with the manager prior to seeing her in flesh. ifs she spoke to the manager in nigerian accent, why was the manager surprised she wasn't white?

hahahaha I guess Ghanaians are wising up to who these nigerians are,huh? ifs she hads been treated nicely, she would have come to nairaland to spew nonsense about how Ghanaians 'worshiped' her because she was nigerian when she visited. muhahaha arrant nonsense grin who gives a fvck about clueless mumus?

Ghana deports thousands in crackdown on illegal Chinese goldminers

Thousands of Chinese nationals have been deported from Ghana in a crackdown on the plunder of the country's gold by illegal miners.

Immigration authorities say more than 4,500 Chinese nationals have been repatriated after a series of swoops on illegal goldmines.
So far this year 1,577 illegal foreign miners have been arrested by the Ghanaian authorities, and more than 3,800 have submitted to deportation on a voluntary basis, according to the ministry for lands and mines. Immigration authorities said that in June and July alone 4,592 Chinese illegal immigrants were deported.

"All these Chinese were involved in illegal employment in Ghana, the majority in illegal goldmining," said Michael Amoako-Atta, a spokesman for Ghana's immigration service. "This is only the first phase of our operations, we will be continuing in due course."

This year the Guardian exposed the scale of illegal Chinese goldmining in Ghana in a film that showed widespread excavating and use of toxic chemicals, and allegations of human rights abuses. Following the film Ghana's president, John Dramani Mahama, established a high-level taskforce, saying it was necessary to bring "sanity" to the mining sector.

Since then the government has launched a series of raids through the combined military, immigration and police taskforce. Towns that had swelled with the presence of illegal miners have been significantly affected, officials say. In Dunkwa, where the Guardian filmed this year, sources said the departure of Chinese had drastically affected the local economy.

"A very big change has happened in Dunkwa," said one source, who did not want to be named. "They were the ones who provided the mining equipment – most of the Ghanaians left behind cannot continue their operations. It has really affected the mining. The local people are complaining because they say the Chinese were good for business. Now everything has slowed down."

But many Ghanaians have lauded the government's efforts to curb illegal mining. The Chinese have attracted heavy criticism from Ghanaians for taking local jobs, wielding weapons such as AK-47 rifles, and polluting lakes and rivers.

"This illegal goldmining was compromising the environment. It was compromising the security of this country. It had a lot of social consequences and the government was losing a lot of resource revenue," said Fuseini, the mines minister. "The Chinese were just plundering the resources. So what we have done is take action to stop the plunder and ensure that the resource needs of this country are not any way depleted in ways that breaks resource revenue of the state."

Choi! Una fit lie sha! Which lawrence again na? ......... Anyway, I guess you failed to see the article below, because the moderator hid it!
»:

Ideally, one will not be writing about
racism in Nigeria where we all have a
uniform black color but a personal
experience a few years back in Port
Harcourt make this imperative.
I represented my company as the
manager covering the Eastern Region
operations. My brother and childhood
friend, Captain Austin Anianu, was in
Port Harcourt for an overnight stop and
we needed a place to chill out.
Somebody suggested that we go to
FRIENDS nite club, as at then located
along the water line area of aba road.
We were an entourage of four people.
When we got to the gate we were
refused entry, tried as we could to gain
entrance. Meanwhile, every White man
that came along was allowed immediate
access
.
I finally managed to find my way inside a
few months later through a friend
named Flemming, and what did I find
inside? A Nigerian club where girls in a
cage-like stage dancing to an all-White
audience. It was like a ram market, the
ram in this instance being our Nigerian
girls
. It left a sour taste in my mouth.
We also impose racism upon ourselves.
When you reason that one colour is
better than the other, you are thinking
racism. In some parts of this country, we
have fellow Nigerians who have
successfully completed their education
in core areas of professionalism and
having completed their compulsory
service to the nation, are refused
employment on the basis of state of
origin.
Preferences are giving to white skinned
men from countries like India, Lebanon,
China and the likes, even when such
jobs do not require much skills
. Some of
our captains of industry still practise
this in their respective firms. So you find
White men working in areas that we
have abundance of jobless qualified
Nigerians. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/10/racism-ethnicism-nigerian-state/

Jigga_man, I think you're a Ghanaian? The automatic instinct to defend our own is very commendable but could be counter-productive. This website has some nasty submissions that makes one lose hope for our race but dig deeper and you will find, in the main, people go out of their way to give help and advice freely to people they've never met.

If I were you, or any other Ghanaian, my first instinct would be to give the benefit of doubt to a fellow African sister. Rise above the generalizations that others piled on. She may indeed have been very hurt - traumatized even by her experience. Why don't you use this as an opportunity to show the true hospitality or good nature of Ghanaians in some way? Perhaps by offering to make discreet enquiries, or help take it to the highest level of management?

What would make you feel better as you lay your head on the pillow at night- an imaginary prize for winning an internet war of words, or knowing you have helped somebody? 'We often show ourselves in best light when we avoid unnecessary conflict' - just my late Grandma speaking.

True, no one likes to spend their hard end money and on top of that get treated like crap; for that I feel for her and I understand her frustration. I am in no way denying her claims. I just think her situation was more about competency of the hotel management. I think race had nothing to do with it.

Ghana is probably the only country in Africa that protects its citizens. Nigeria government and Nigerians care less about each other especially when money is involved. So don't make me laugh.
