Ghana's image is being promoted as such a peaceful and accepting country, despite all the social issues, corruption, fraud, scamming and xenophobia. Ghanaians are showing such hatred for other Black Africans, while South Africa takes the brunt of the accusations of being xenophobic.

Hateful Ghanaians flourish, since the 2017 murder of 2 Black American women over their legally owned land, to the 2024 chasing of another Guyanese man's property. Ghanaians are a jealous, bullying bunch.

However Ghana influencers are being paid well for pushing the narrative that the 60% underdeveloped country is welcoming to Black people. I mean if you're not too dark, or too light for the majority of the citizens. Hiding in your segregated communities.

A British-Ghanaian man shows the segregation of Ghana on his trip to the country after 7-years of absence. His videos are being attacked because his family lives in a village, they Ghanaians are angry he's showing the poverty which is most of Ghana. However he's had to make several videos defending the fact that he and his family don't have much money.

Freedom of speech from fellow Ghanaians has always been under attack, as I even get death threats, harassed and insulted on social media and in the streets of Ghana. Ghanaians are supported by their hateful, small boy of a President Akufo-Addo.

I've written about the toxic and abusive Ghanaian who goes by the pen name Bongo Ideas aka Albert Nat Hyde. This racist, colorist, uneducated, typical angry Ghanaian bully, hates everyone, especially Black African women.

- Bongo has insulted a dead Ghanaians mixed-race children, claiming because they aren't dark skin, that they look nothing like their father. By the way all 3 of his children look exactly like him, as that Black-African DNA is strong. 

- Bongo Ideas also called Rhianna's baby ugly, claiming lucky his parents are wealthy. The baby was a year old. 

- Bongo also mocked Davido after his son died at 3-years old from drowning in the families pool. Davido, his wife weren't home, however 8 staff members were home with their toddler. Davido was shown in several photos teaching his son how to swim in the family pool. Bongo aka Albert Nat Hyde, claimed that if Davido was in the United States that he and his wife would be arrested. Bongo has never in his life been to America & is trying hard to immigrate to the US. 

- Bongo ideas tried to claim that Idris Elba dressed like he was poor when he came to Ghana. Elba was wearing $200 USD shoes, Bongo tried to claim they were cheap as well as Elba's linen dress pants. 

- Bongo as insulted women, all women, he's made post body shaming them, claiming women ruin your life if you marry them. He's posted photos of random women living their lives on his social media platform to degrade them. One woman was smoking a hookah, her photo was seen by over a million people, Bongo claimed she had no class because she was smoking a hookah.

- Bongo was fired from a job, then decided for years to stalk the woman he claims is the reason he was fired. He will post anything disgusting or disrespectful about her. 

Bongo also called another man’s wife ugly, he has done nothing but insult people. However living in Ghana for 2-years all I saw and all that I know is that Ghanaians insult people all day, once again this is why there is an entire book written on the bully culture of Ghanaians.

Recently Bongo insulted the President of Ghana's wife, here this is where he landed in trouble.

H0wever the Ghana police and other agencies are denying that they arrested or detained the rude and disgusting blogger. Ghanaians who are growing the following of this online bully made his name trend heavily on the Elon Musk X app.

Bongo is a perfect example of the culture of bullying in Ghana, even though so many claim to not like him, he is making a living on insulting people and he's doing well for himself.

However a video surfaced of Bongo Ideas with a swollen face, which once again promoted many to ask why his face was swollen.

Ghana once again has been declining in freedoms of the press and speech, as many people can't freely say what they want about the president or the political leaders in Ghana.

Ghana's media has and will continue to be under attack, as the government of Akufo-Addo wants to pretend that Ghana is a perfect country. Sadly many of the Ghanaian influencers, from the US and Ghana also push this fake narrative about the country.

Most claiming that it is like Wakanda without the development, technology, peace, education, stable electricity or acceptance.
