  1. I think its not JUST Ghana per say. Evil people, wicked people scammers are all over the world. You just need to try not trust anyone and do you research welll before you get yourself involved in anything.

  2. Sorry for your experience Akua, these are human experiences and can be particularly painful given where you begun. I hope you receive all the support you need.

  3. Bless for sharing this content an I will be sharing this on with in a positive light for other to be aware of what you are doing when it comes to buying a property in Africa, you really need to know what you are doing or they will dupe you big time ! Madam Akua Bailey bless for sharing your experiences regarding all what you went through it must of been a real challenge but you persevered an I hope now great things are happening for you🙏🏿🙏🏿 My brother bless for placing the content

  4. Sorry to hear your story, Akua. Stay strong and don't give up on your dreams.

    The legal side of the story is very familiar. Our legal system sucks, big time. It is frustrating. Some Judges are demigods. Some Court registrars are living in prehistoric times. No one cares, I repeat no one cares.

    Going to court in Ghana is like a move from the frying pan to fire. It is inexplicably slow, slower than a sloth. And if the court is to pay you, you may die/fall sick/etc before you receive it.

    Something is not right with our justice delivery system!!!

  5. This is heartbreaking,,very bad and dissapointed experience,,she wanted to live in Ghana with joy and hope but now very sad situation..Pls help her retrieve her money back..She is frustrated because of disgraful greedy people..How could they do this to a stranger?'its a shame and very bad.

  6. They were scamming her from the beginning. She needs to go back to United Kingdom and report the company over there to the business bureau so the government can hold them accountable and close them down. They are international scammers. 🇱🇷

  7. This is more than sad, please put these peoples details up so no one else has to deal with them. I am from the UK and to think you can have someone in the UK who you can act on you behalf is wonderful. Please forgive me we must all learn from this and go to has much people who are living in the place your buying, trying going and seeing has much homes has possible, the more people who have brought we will build up a good community amongst are black brothers and sisters. Please put their details up.

  8. I like how you guys are learning the hard way. Nigeria is the only hospitable and accommodating country in Africa,ignore the bad PR. Ghanaians are fond of exploiting foreigners and acting innocent,they did same to Nigerians in the 50s,took over nigerian properties in their country and chase them away. Guess who cry’s about Ghana-Must-Go till tomorrow?

  9. I feel very sorry for what Akua went through. Very traumatising! I hope she's able to recover her money from those wicked and greedy Ghanaians deceiving Diasporans to be real estate developers.

  10. This story is very discouraging for the black peoples wanting to go back to Africa and connect with their roots and the land 😢 Especially for the blacks in America. It has been a deep desire of mine to go to Ghana or Nigeria to connect with the land but I’m very aware of all the scamming that happens in these countries and how black Americans are not always openly excepted and how we are almost always scammed by locals and it’s so scary. How very sad. So I will never be going to any country in Africa unless I’m going with someone I fully trust that was born and raised there. Thank God my husband is from the continent and I don’t have to worry about getting scammed by the locals and I’m still able to get the connection from the land that I’ve always desires to have. But this is not the case for many blacks living all over the world and that’s such a shame how we have to worry so much about getting scammed by our own people smh The only way to correct this scamming behavior amongst our own is to put these scammers in full blasts! And even put the specific people working within the judicial court system in the countries who are supporting these scammers by not punishing them correctly also on blasts! Putting peoples full names and company names and addresses out there will surly stop this behavior. We should not be scamming at all but we damn sure shouldn’t be scamming our own people! Smh what a crime and a shame smh

  11. Saying this woman was very naive is an understatement as she based her decision on a person she barely knew. Did not do her research first about possibility of obtaining residency or getting a work permit before embarking on purchasing. Even in the UK, you cannot do this or trust a developer that is not well known or you would get duped also. Listening to her, she did everything wrong and knows full well doing same in UK will result in same thing. She, like many descendants of slave from US and diaspora got suckered into year of the return in 2019, romanticizing moving to the motherland. Hope she has learned moving forward.
