@ Kwame: GHANA IS NOT NIGERIA!

JOHN MAHAMA SHOULD RESHUFFLE ABLAKWA: THE POLITICAL NOVICE FROM THAT POSITION BEFORE GHANA’S IMAGE IS COMPLETELY DAMAGED DIPLOMATICALLY!

Who told you Ablakwa’s arrogance didn’t play a part in this seemingly Ghana’s fall from grace? That senator that Ablakwa disrespected is the Chairman of US Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. Do you know the role of that Senator as far US foreign policy is concerned? Simply put, Ablakwa’s actions caused all these problems. See Ghana has always been in good relationships with the US since time immemorial. To bolster my point, let me draw your attention to one of such events that demonstrated how the United States government respected Ghana as compared to other African countries.

In 1974: even after IK Acheampong has overthrown the Progress Party and Dr Busia’s government; a strategic partner of the United States on the African continent, Sherry Temples Black, the most famous child actress in the history of America was appointed as the US Ambassador to Ghana. That woman is one of the biggest celebrities in America even up to today. A household name that every American knew and revered at that time was appointed as the US Ambassador to Ghana, an African country for that matter. Can you imagine the positive impact that appointment had on Ghana’s image?

Let me draw your attention to another situation that bolsters my argument that Ablakwa’s hubris nature and lack of respect for foreign dignitaries has brought this serious consequences on Ghana’s relationship with the United States. And one of the main causes of this very predicament that Ghanaian potential US travelers have to deal with at the moment.

Back in 2018 after President Trump’s “ Shithole” comments he had made about Africa started hurting his political image, he sent his beloved wife, Mrs, Melania Trump to Africa— a woman this President love so much was sent to Africa in a obvious attempt to repair Trump’s image on the African continent, after the that one comment started hurting his relationship with the black voters and the entire African American community and voters across the US.

Now, guess the first country that this important woman visited! She first stepped her foot on the continent of Africa through Ghana and spent a couple days in this country before continuing to other few African countries. That underscores how much President Trump and his entire administration viewed Ghana. Don’t compare Ghana to other countries in Africa; even including Nigeria. Ghana has always had a very favorable relationship with the people of the United States.

Even after JJ Rawlings was caught spying on America through his cousin Michael Soussoudis in the 1980’s— that serious diplomatic fallout didn’t damage Ghana’s reputation and relationship as far the American government is concerned. And so this very diplomatic fallout with the US should definitely be attributed to Ablakwa’s hubris nature and nothing else.

Aside everything else, such as John Mahama’s invitation of the Burkina Faso’s anti Western dictator to his inauguration in January and other things that the new Mahama government has done indicating their imminent intentions to step on America’s toes, that action by the “Baby With Sharp Teeth” OKUSETO ABLAKWA trounced them all.

Now if John Mahama wants to have any good relationship with the US again, Ablakwa should be reshuffled from that position as the first step to achieve such feet or made any good in an attempt to lure the Trump and the current Republican administration positive attitude towards Ghana.
I SHALL RETURN!

Ghana is not the same as Nigeria, but the Trump administration relied on the same reason for imposing the cuts on Nigeria and Ghana, and the cuts have nothing to do with any statements made or actions taken by Ablakwa. All Osei knows is that there have been visa cuts for Ghana and Nigeria, but it's obvious that Osei has not bothered to find out why those cuts were made and he's instead acting like the NPP blind attack dog that he is in pouncing on Ablakwa with unfounded claims.

Ablakwa is not experienced enough for the portfolio of foreign minister. Of Mahama's appointments this time, it was Ablakwa and Akandoh which surprised me the most. Foreign minister is a serious position, higher in status than almost all other miniseries, with the exception of maybe finance minister. It is, to the outside world, the face of a government.

Ablakwa was nowhere near experienced enough for the role. And his hot-headedness showed in his response to that US Senator. Typical juvenile response. Zero tact. Zero diplomacy.

Don't let anybody deceive you that it was not a factor in this US decision. IT WAS! we are not kids here. The government know it was a factor. That's why Ofosu Kwakye is struggling to explain it and blaming international students. What nonsense. Does Ghana have the highest rate of international student visa overstays? We are not even in the top 10. In any case, what are the international student numbers from Ghana in the US? We are not in the top 20. So it cannot be the reason for this decision. Don't take us for fools.

Speaking out loud but lacking any information to back up that loud noise. Ablakwa is not the reason for the visa cut. Trump imposed the same cut on Nigeria, and you certainly can't claim Ablakwa also caused that cut for Nigeria. Trump and his Secretary of State specifically mentioned the reason for these cuts, citing Nigeria and Ghana's visa policies towards USA citizens. Osei is pathetically uninformed about many matters that he runs his mouth about.

You see how the NPP are still bleeding, what does this got to do with Okudzeto Ablakwa. Prince David Osei, you are losing respect. Please read

The reasons for the US action.

1.⁠ ⁠*No Full Travel Ban Yet*: As of July 2025, the U.S. has not imposed a full travel ban on Ghana but listed it among 36 countries potentially facing restrictions if issues aren’t resolved within 60 days (by mid-August 2025).

2.⁠ ⁠*High Visa Overstay Rates*: Ghana has significant visa overstay rates, with 21% of students and 7.5% of business/tourist (B1/B2) visa holders overstaying in 2023, violating U.S. immigration rules.

3.⁠ ⁠*Lack of Deportation Cooperation*: Ghana’s limited cooperation in accepting deported nationals is a major U.S. concern, hindering the removal of Ghanaian citizens ordered to leave.

4.⁠ ⁠*Unreliable Identity Documents*: The U.S. questions the reliability of Ghana’s passports and civil documents due to inadequate security and vetting processes.

5.⁠ ⁠*Historical Visa Sanctions*: In 2019, the U.S. imposed visa sanctions on Ghana for refusing to accept ~7,000 deportees, reducing B1/B2 visa validity from five-year multiple-entry to three-month single-entry.

6⁠. ⁠*Remediation Opportunity*: Ghana has until mid-August 2025 to address these concerns to avoid potential full or partial travel restrictions.

Trump's foreign policy has nothing to do with Ablakwa. I wonder how some idiotic people are trying to link him to the erratic policy of Trump.

It’s becoming a trade in character for persons associated with the NPP to politicize everything in this country even in the face evidential proof showing otherwise.
How does people overstaying their visa become a problem orchestrated by government? People like David should by now know that the Ghanaian people are not uneducated. You blame everything on others but wouldn’t take responsibility for your wrongs.
Isn’t it time for you and your likes to apologize to Ghanaians for the mess? Stop this and start doing something better than always running your mouth on everything in this country.

So he is also the cause of same visa restrictions on the rest of African countries? You speak like without American visa you cannot pursue your movie carrier. There are millions of successful Americans who have not ever set foot on other countries before and yet have made it. You achieve your modest fame in Ghana when you never dreamt of it, and instead of upskilling your talent and reach your pinnacle in the movie industry you are thinking of US visa. Your current movie talent cannot guarantee you slot in any serious American movie sector so wise up, man!

Hon.Sam Okdzeto Ablakwa deserve the "Patriot of the Year" Award for temporary shutting down of the Ghana Embassy IN Washington DC. That action was and without the slightest doubt the best move designed to drum some sense into the heads of those calabash -headed sycophants at the Embassy whose nefarious activities has brought the Embassy and the image of Ghana into disrepute.
And twats such as David Osei are having the audacity of calling out the Honorable Minister into question for his action? Idiots! Fools!! Bastards!!!
