Stonebwoy, a Reggae-Dancehall musician, has expressed his thoughts on the December In Ghana initiative and says that Ghanaians are eager to welcome diasporans.
In
an interview on Hot 97 radio station in New York, host Ebro questioned
Stonebwoy about the perceptions of Ghanaians toward Diaspora visitors.
The
multi award-winning artiste responded by saying that Ghanaians are extremely
friendly and that travelers should explore the country's intriguing locations
and rich history. He claims that Ghanaians always enjoy hosting visitors from
abroad.
“Hundred
percent, we love it! Ghanaians are welcoming. We are hospitable people. We are
home to everybody. The Ghana situation is fire. There are some landlocked
countries that you don’t have varieties. The infrastructure is actually getting
there, to be honest. Not only the Ashanti Kingdom; there are several other Kingdoms that need to be explored as well in Ghana, like the Volta, the North,
the Western and the Central. So it’s a beautiful place I would urge travelers
to always make Ghana a December destination.”
In
addition, Stonebwoy urged the diasporans to prioritize investing in the
nation's most important industries.
“There’s
a lot to know, a lot to learn and a lot to bring in terms of ideology. I’m
asking the diaspora to try and invest their intellect and finance as well in
the motherland. With the $5,000 you can get some acres we could do business. We
could create employment. It doesn’t depend on only the indigenes of Ghana or
Africa.”
Ghana
has gained popularity as a destination for vacation travel since the 2019 Year
of Return program, thus, drawing in a significant number of tourists every
year.
