    Lol... you went to a 0.05 % part of Ghana 🇬🇭. Next time please visit every part , or at least endeavor to do both sides ... good and bad. I am in the USA, and I see both sides...the nasty and the good. I took Uber one day and I told the Uber driver that the way they portray America it’s as if you won’t see “zongos” and villages, and street guys and girls or even prostitution on the roads.... you would think it’s all “Heaven”...and she said “ Africans need to tell and brand their own stories”. So yea, you see it in one guy going to one place and telling the story to encompass a whole country. Dude, visit the whole of Ghana then your story would be authentic. Or say “ where I visited “ qualify your story well.

You can imagine what a scene like that would have on foreigners. I really hope authorities start to seriously enforce sanitation laws in Ghana.

      To say there are no restrooms in Ghana is a misrepresentation at the highest order but to say there are no restrooms on our highways is surely the case. But even that, if u are travelling from to Kumasi for instance, u will find Linda Dor along the way where there are decent restrooms. Then again he said Ghana is made up of mud houses and even in Accra.
      He could have said the area where he went had mud houses.
