What celebrities have said about Michael Blackson’s Eurobond investment woes

Some celebrities have responded to Michael Blackson’s outbursts regarding the Ghanaian government ruining his investments.

In a series of posts on X, Blackson revealed that he purchased Eurobonds to fund his school in Ghana, but has faced dire challenges in recouping his investment.

He explained that he invested in Eurobonds, believing they would sustain the free school he built.

However, Blackson expressed frustration that the Ghanaian government used the funds to pay off its debts, leaving investors like him in a difficult space.

“Who’s the minister of finance in Ghana? I have beef with this guy. People from the diaspora chose to invest in our continent, and now our money is being used to pay debt, with two disappointing options: a 37% cut for 5% interest over 11 years, or no cut with just 1.9% interest over 15 years. I’m very disappointed in my people for this,” parts of his post read.

His comments have since sparked widespread reactions on social media, particularly among celebrities including media personalities.

Many expressed disappointment in the government for how it has treated Michael Blackson, while others worry that it reflects poorly on the country.

Some believe that these allegations should be taken seriously, as they could deter potential investors globally.

Michael Blackson is talking about Ghana instead of mentioning Akuffo Addo and Bawumia. He didn’t hesitate to name JM when he had to drag him.

I feel your pain, Mike. I stopped chasing my locked up 💰 at GCFM around 2021 after losing hope of ever getting it back.

3 years on, I'm still getting texts from the Aggrieved GCFM Customers group.

This is real. This is life. This is @NAkufoAddo's legacy that we feel. Daily. https://t.co/Qbia6gT8ue pic.twitter.com/0uNztXAoyF
