Sonnie Badu believes Michael Blackson’s recent social media rants about his investments have damaged Ghana’s international reputation.
The Rockhill Chapel founder cum gospel musician argues that Blackson’s comments discourage potential investors from considering the country.
Speaking on GHOne, Badu stated, "You just read what Michael Blackson said happened to him. This guy is an International figure and everything he says carries a lot of weight. What he has done has damaged Ghana big time.
"This is what it’s going to do do, it is telling everybody don’t go and invest in Ghana. Again, this is Africa. It is not just happening in Ghana, it happening everywhere where people think about their pockets first before impact, where people don’t envision the future, they want it now. When you go to the white man’s land, they plan 50 years ahead even if they don’t benefit, they will rather their children come to benefit,” he said.
Earlier, in a series of tweets, Blackson expressed frustration over the financial losses he incurred while investing in Ghana, particularly for a school he established to support talented but underprivileged students in his hometown.
