I MOVED FROM THE USA TO GHANA AND BUILD THIS HOUSE FOR $100,000, INCLUDING EVERYTHING
In this captivating episode, join Captain Hayford Budu-Darko as he travels from Accra to Aseibu Pan African Village in Cape Coast, Ghana, to interview Karen, a diasporan who made a bold move from the USA to Ghana. Discover Karen's incredible journey, from leaving a $140,000 job in the USA to building her retirement home in Ghana for $100,000. She shares her challenges, including shipping $20,000 worth of gold that disappeared, and the joy of settling in a new country.
Why Americans are Moving to Ghana:
For various reasons, Ghana has become a popular destination for African Americans and other diasporans. The "Year of Return" campaign in 2019, commemorating 400 years since the first enslaved Africans arrived in Jamestown, Virginia, inspired many to reconnect with their ancestral roots. The campaign encouraged over 1,500 African Americans to move to Ghana, and the "Beyond the Return" initiative continues to promote long-term engagement and resettlement.
Many African Americans are drawn to Ghana for its rich cultural heritage, historical significance, and the opportunity to experience life in a predominantly Black country. Ghana offers a sense of belonging and freedom from the systemic racism and violence experienced in the USA. The country's government has also provided incentives, such as land allocations and facilitated citizenship, to attract diasporans.
Economic opportunities, entrepreneurial potential, and a simpler, more fulfilling lifestyle are other significant factors. Ghana's vibrant community and the chance to contribute to the country's development appeal to many seeking a fresh start.
