With a leadership like President John Dramani Mahama, I don't think the Western world will ever border paying any reparation to Africa. They're not prepared to have anything to with Corrupt characters like him. Former leaders ...

What I don't really understand is why should European countries involved in the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade pay Reparations to African countries. That evil Trade at that time was a legitimate one and African Kingdoms like the ...

What about trans Saharan slave trade that started long before the trans Atlantic version, how come nobody talks about it, Mohammedans were even more evil, why are they not being talked about?
I understand that the Trans Saharan Slave Trade went on for Centuries before the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade but the latter was more inhuman and of a greater magnitude. Almost every society has had some forms of Enslavement. T ...

Your demigod Akufo Addo wanted reparations in the form of money, so that he would share it among the Akyem Mafia. Now a thoughtful President has come and has started addressing the situation in a very intelligent way. He is n ...

Siimply because the majority of those who caught the slaves were indigenes from the tribes in the then gold coast.
@ Kwasi Addai

Addai, you're a fool
So now if Europe and America decide to give out 1 trillion dollars each every ten years, what do we think will happen. Our politicians will start killing themselves for a share of the money. Not for development oooo!! But for ...

Anyway black people hate each other and that was why the white man and woman exploited our hatred towards each other to perpetuate the slave trade. Our ancestors at that time hated each other or uncivilised to some extent. Th ...

From Ashantihene, Ga Mantse, Northern Chiefs and the Ewe Chiefs from Dahomey were all part of the criminal syndicate!
So in what forms will this reparations be? MKO Abiola started this reparations talks in 1992, I suspect that it was the reason why he died in the presence of Americans, the only day they had access to him was the day he died ...

Mahama is now cleverly using this slave trade thingy to avoid answering for his failed 24hr Economy Policy!
Ghana has always tried to exploit slavery for material gains, all these Joseph project, year of return bla bla was aimed at boosting tourism and not sincerity
What about the greatest crime of all committed by Jerry John Rawlings from 1979,1981 to 1992.That regime is the parent of Dramani Mahama’s party the NDC.Lets pay reparations to all Ghanaians who suffered during that period.
What was the religion of Christopher Columbus and the people on board the discovery boats?
They needed the slaves to develop America.
The white Man is the representative of Satan on Earth. Very evil minded creatures.
In the same vein as Ofori Atta looted Ghana and run away with the booty to go and hide in the USA, and the USA authorities are defending him. Shall we turn around after 100 years to ask American government to pay us reparatio ...
