  • ModernGhana is probably the most popular news portal and Roger Agambire (owner) is a decent journalist.

    My point was mostly that while we talk about clear racism from China towards Ghana, there’s a background of multiple forces pulling towards their own goals here. In a sense, Ghana (and the region itself) has won a lot from having choices, but that came with a cost.

    The second thing is that US diplomacy weaning turned into Chinese influence growing (with all its consequences).

    I think it’s interesting to see friction arising towards China but I hope are truly national and not external influences.



  • Ghana is raising in Africa as one of the main economies and has a healthier democracy than most countries i the region, even compared to older democracies.

    That said, the recent anti-LGBTQ ruling was surprising even considering how religious the country is.

    An important fact is that there is a LOT of foreign influence pouring into the country’s politics, given how rich is in resources and how the old order has been weakened by China’s pull.

    Once again, two factions are pulling Africa into their spheres of control and using dirty tactics to do so.

    China’s attempts to control these countries are bad, but the chronic illness that is oligarchic european control of Africa has been a cancer that needs to be excised.
