Hundreds of historic diasporans living in Ghana are sounding the alarm over the rising cost and growing barriers to acquiring Ghanaian citizenship. For many, the dream of repatriation is being undermined by excessive fees, difficult requirements, and policies that leave people feeling excluded rather than welcomed.In this video, Ɔbenfo Ọbádélé Kambon speaks on the sidelines of the Historic African Diaspora Town Hall Meeting about the frustrations many are experiencing, including the GHS 25,000 citizenship fee that has become a major obstacle for families, elders, and long-term residents who planned to build their lives in Ghana.The conversation goes beyond paperwork. It raises serious questions about belonging, policy, development, and whether symbolic gestures toward the diaspora are being matched by real substance. If Ghana is serious about reparative justice and meaningful repatriation, then the concerns of historic diasporans must be heard and addressed.This is not just about citizenship. It is about Black unity, accountability, and building a future rooted in justice.

Since its formation in 2024, the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) – comprising Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso – has faced relentless attacks by Western-backed terrorists, economic isolation and sovereignty violations by Western-aligned African states, and endless slander from Western and Western-aligned media. Despite these externally-imposed challenges, its member states have continued to record economic and political wins, and the West is clearly not happy.

On April 2nd, 2026, US-based Western propaganda outlet Human Rights Watch (HRW) put out a report alleging that the Burkina Faso military had perpetrated war crimes over the last 2 years, leading to the deaths of over 1200 innocent Burkinabé citizens. The report was quickly amplified by Western media, but didn’t have quite its intended effect. It was met with immediate backlash from Africans of good conscience across the Motherland and its diaspora, as well as the Burkina Faso government itself, which pointed out the report’s dishonest methodology, its unreliable sources, and the clear nefarious motives of its authors.

In this report for the Spearhead, @okorieuche_ examines the reality behind the harrowing picture that this “report” attempts to paint of Burkina Faso, and what it means for Africa.
