I am from Zimbabwe but one day I am coming to Ghana to be part of the Renaissance that I see in your country. I don't believe in borders, we are one people.
When Ghanaians can afford the housing solutions, the inflation will decrease and real growth will happen, I like the direction! All hail the new chief, one love family 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲👍👍
The unpaid African ambassador "Wode Maya" did it again. Congratulations to the new chief and you to you Maya for bringing the chief coronation ceremony to your followers.God Almighty will continue to guide and bless you Amen!!
What an important day! It's SO refreshing to see that Ghana recognizes all black people are Africans. We are one people! I'm so relieved to see he's our own. When I saw the title of the video, I said to myself "oh nooo!" because I thought he was not one of us. LOL!!! I'm so happy to see that this is not the case.
Jamaicans are at the highest echelons in Society. The First female Vice President of the USA father is Jamaica; a female wife of a chief in Ghana. I am filled with pride. When she said we are all one. She is repeating the Jamaican pledge 'Out of Many one People". Jamaican influence is everywhere. How a tiny island carry so much influence? It is the from the lessons our ancestors taught us, and they were from West Africa. Like Ghana. Jamaica need the knowledge of Jamaicans in the diaspora for growth. I hope as Jamaicans continues to move to Africa that our trades with African countries will increase.
We need to stay humble. We are one people. Many are returning home to the continent to their roots. The government of Jamaica and the elites (whites/others) of Jamaica made it difficult for the black diaspora to return. I agree blacks around the world are waking up. It is our time now to get the knowledge and build back our societies.
Ignorant comment as usual. In Ghana we have Chiefs and we have Chiefs. We have Chiefs who are appointed from the royal home, they have authority and power over their subjects. They are the custodians of the lands. We also have "ceremonial Chiefs" who only bear the title Chiefs*. Any hard working human being can be given that title regardless of where they hail from. That person can be a Chinese, American, Jamaicans, Kenyan, South African, Nigerian etc, their role is just to help bring development to the community. These kind of Chiefs are normally rich and influecial in their field of endeavor. They are mostly Sportsmen, Actors, Musicians, Business mogul, Politicians, Doctors etc. They have no authority over anyone in the community
@@dennisbrown7930 I understand you and understand the difference HOWEVER, NO ONE of foreign blood should bare titles over our people! You do not see the British do this and awarding royal titles or honorary royal or Duke and duchess titles to Africans! So why must Africans do this?? We are ALWAYS giving away things that belong to us!
@@Queensofafrica8 .. Those are just titles, in other words those communities are only trying to tell the person to help them bring development to their communities. If a foreigner is seen doing a lot of good in the society there's nothing wrong with the community giving him or her "developmental chief title"
@@dennisbrown7930 ...It is still totally unacceptable for a non black to be carried on the shoulders of black Africans. It reminds us of the colonial days, when Africans had to suffer, carrying mzungus on their shoulders for miles. You go to China's villages and sponsor projects there. The Chinese will still not carry you on their shoulders. So if it can't happen in China, why should it be happening in Africa? Lastly, it's you that knows that the image of a Chinese on African shoulders is harmless. Everyone else in the world will see it differently. You can still honor a non black without lifting them on your shoulders. In Africa, only a black chief should be carried on African shoulders. Also in a black African country, only a black person should be made a chief of any kind.
Make your people proud. The African people were successful with their own traditions, the so called democracy of the west some times only put people in power who want to enrich themselves. I really hope to hear his progress in few years time. Education is everything. Which you the best of luck. ❤️🇧🇷
The problem is not about just bad leaders... we have to set our minds free!!!...🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌congratulations to the chief .. hopefully he changes the mind sets of his people ... wode maya ya ya yakyaye eiihhhh.. mr Ghana baby Africa to the world🤸♀️🤸♀️🤸♀️🤸♀️🤸♀️❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of the smartest young African man of our time. Words of wisdom. Wish Nana Okyere 1 long life and more wisdom. He said it all. Stop the blame game and start being the solution you so dream of... Wake up Africa and get on your feet...❤❤❤🇬🇭🇬🇭💯💯🙏🙏
it's important to have the diasporan community submerge themselves in the culture & tradition of African society in every country they go to or settle down in.... its makes them one from African root in spirit, body & soul.
We All are 1- the key is to always hold tight to traditions as we evolve and navigate other knowledge - as you said it’s about wealth in all forms not merely riches 🇬🇭🇯🇲🙏🏿
@@WODEMAYA Ghanababy, ever since I came to America precisely New York, the people who has been so good to me are Jamaicans They are one of the most amazing people on this universe and when they found out that I from Ghana, the treatment is even different Most of them love Ghana and they are similar to Ghanaians with how they carry themselves My love for Jamaicans are beyond description
This touches my heart! Ugh! I feel robbed... transplanted in America and missing out on ALL of this illustriously rich culture! I have to get my family out of here. My family deserves to witness and be a part of such ceremonies and rituals!!! Our talents and energy belong on The Continent
Loomwheel, if he ( The Chief) works to improve living conditions in the villages such as buildings projects where its needed, we will be more than loved and well accepted!!
Another amazing episode as usual Mr Ghana baby ,very inspirational and encouraging content. GREETINGS GREETINGS my beautiful and amazing people of Afrika home and abroad ,in behalf of all Guinea Bissau people much ❤ to all Afrincan people all around the globe 🌎
Lovely video Wode Maya. I found it very informative. As a Jamaican, I hope one day to visit Ghana and acquaint myself with her culture. I was told as a youngster, that most Jamaicans are from the Akan region of Ghana; don't know how true that is, but I hope to visit one day.
it's true, most of your people have been coming to Ghana, they even have jamaica village in Ghana, located at the Eastern region. The late bob marley wife Rita Marley has a house there. so you are welcome to home at any time.
This one is powerful Wode, the merging of diaspora and Africa. I hardly think u will hear an outcry about the image of this chief being carried on the shoulders of an African. This is how it should be, we are one people.
This man's heart and vision for his people made me weep tears. I pray the community will work with him and allow him the support and resources to achieve. His wife is amazing! God bless the Queen
I just love how involved you are in everything you’re projecting on screen. It’s obvious you love your job. I like how the king is also taking up this duty. Best of luck to him as he attains this height. The rich culture of Africa can never be over emphasized.
The Chief said it all. Let’s stop blaming our leaders and change our attitudes. The youth in Ghana are even more corrupt than our leaders. Try to give them employment in your business and they will steal everything at that workplace
The solution to the African problem is a drastic change of mindsets!!! A change of thought pattern and the willingness to follow in the footsteps of successful people. Dear fellow Africans, stop being envious or in competition with those you are supposed to inspire or get inspiration from!!! 🇸🇱🇸🇱
I pray the diaspora emerges themselves in our culture and in a few decades, their kids become nothing but pure Ghanaians. I said this because some come with their western mentality and expectations and then deprived themselves of the opportunities the experiences.
Organization and cleanliness is number one throughout the whole town. Weekly garbage disposal if you cannot recycle it burn it. Proper waste sewage plumbing should be installed Every single person should have their own home with solar panels and water reserves underground and modern plumbing with a backyard and front yard Should be mandatory that everyone has a functioning garden fruits and vegetables everyone has their own cattle chickens livestock All Land should be divided I stones large beautiful stone lines not old metal rusty fences similar to that of Ireland Everyone must make a vow never to steal or harm anyone within the town The educational system should be 75% at home and 25% in school all testing should be done at an educational facility to maintain proper education of standards. But in the home structure must be developed mothers and fathers must teach their children and educational curriculum must be followed in the home where there are no distractions of other students other than siblings. Everyone must have morning prayers and exercise cardiovascular Everyone must show respects to the elderly every single day including home visits No begging and no litter 🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
I fully agree with you on your points.i have a question for you and others.If the education system or curriculum is to be changed at the primary and secondary level what subjects should the students study instead?
Great coverage of an extremely important event. No disrespect intended to the elders but I couldn't help but notice that they were admonishing the new chief to do this, that and the other so it made me wonder and ask the question; "Respectfully your excellencies, but what have you all been doing before this new Chief's enstoolment"? I honestly hope that the elders and the community understand that though he has been bestowed the responsibility to develop the village the burden should not be his alone to bear. Along with all the sage advice and admonishing he received, he needs the substantive support of the chieftancy and the community not just lip service. 🙌🏿
When you say, it should be mandatory to have a garden, you lost your argument. We can’t be all farmers, although I see the benefits of it. Other points are sound.
Wode Maya thanks for highlighting my country Jamaica Maya you are an inspiration to many I heard someone made reference to you on one of our radio station here in Jamaica You have been used as a good reference point
Wow! What an inspiring interview with the Chief. Spitting great wisdom. Overall, a worthy insight and display by all who were features in this video. Not to mention how proud that the Chief's wife is a Jamaican. Jamaica to the world, proud and large!🇯🇲👌👍💖🙏🤣
Is it not me I'm proud to see africs doing this because our history was token we used to have the strongest monarchy in the world legs show these people our land let's show people africa has a place in the world wode maya good work love in Harare 🇿🇼 ❤
Love this video. Nana is a very smart man and I hope people listen to him. I like the bit where he said that we can't keep doing the same thing and expect different outcomes and that we should stop relying on political leaders and take our future in our own hand. Thank you for bringing us this video Wode.
Wow you are really reaching there our African icon I love the way the video was captured, good to see things I didn't know about Ghana food. It's good that you had to attend the colonation ceremony.
Love this video am learning so much about africa. Woda you have to come visit all the countries in the caribbean, to see the other side of africa. There need to have a bridge that connect us back to our homeland. Watching from st.lucia
Wow. I am so glad to have the chance to see this. It reminds me of how in Trinidad & Tobago the powder is thrown on the masquerades as they move around the town in celebration.
This video is very interesting. It is imperative that we change our thinking because a body that is free can have a mind that is in bondage. The song says, "Free Your Mind, The Rest Will Follow". Excellent video!
WODE MAYA , this is a great gift. A good book for you and your team to get into. I have been reading this book for many years and I continue to revisit the pages. It's a must read and that is by force my brother!
Ghana is looking to their people in the diaspora to bring change and growth to the nation. Of course they will have to make it easy to set up start businesses and make rent and housing affordable. There are many videos about cost of living in Ghana, which is good to check out before visiting.
Is only Accra that the cost of living is expensive, the problem is people also attributes Accra to the whole Ghana Ghana is not expensive is Accra that is expensive, more people want to Live in Accra but there are other cities.
West Africa is full of people with wisdom and problem identifying skills. Our biggest problem is how to streamline those gift and makes it a systems where everyone would obey and follow. We haven't been able to do it. I use to think black people were not cut out to run a country with discipline until I found out about Rwanda. In my humble opinion I believe black Africa can only develope with sensible one party state systems with strict discipline and goals.
@@ackahkofiefrancis4289 you are right brother, there's too much freedom in Ghana, however Ghanaians don't possess the mental discipline to deserve this level of freedom. We lack discipline.
Woda Maja I am so extra impressed by this whole video. You know why…? Because I’ve seen and heard so many similarities ( music with the drums and tradition) of the maroon tribe in my country Suriname 🇸🇷 Now I truly believe that we (black people) came from Ghana like they’re teaching us in school. A proud Surinamese always watching your videos. 🙌🏼💞
Goodm to our ghana chief enjoying it from the caribbean blessing maya for all the great work you show the world about africa and it rich history agriculture blessing from the creator the land , may the chief push great development plan food security for his people.
He's not going to find it easy with the kind of mentality we have in Ghana. I hope those elders around him will work, agree, and support him to succeed
Quite an interesting video, The Chief choice of words are immaculate, he's right on point, and yes it's a must we ought to reculture our mindset in order to manifest grow and blossom and ready for harvest in this new global era. And my blessings to is Jamaican born British Wife, and from the way she sounds she doesn't have much experience about Jamaica... My peace I leave with you, Thanks from 🇯🇲
Yes Chief mi Bredda live in the legacy and be a part of its history n change...nuh badda mek deal wid nobody the answers are in the 💙 of God...seek Him first He will show you how to lead di ppl dem#blessedlove
