LIVING IN GHANA | Moved from Lebanon to open a fashion house Accra | Starting a business in Accra 

Thank you ✌🏽💜❤🇬🇭

That's because you stay in your compound.

@@time4advancement244 He said “ I walk around peacefully all the time”. How can one make such a statement if they meant they walk in their house. I guess you haven’t been to Ghana. Click on his name or search for “ African Walk Videos” and you will understand what he meant.

@@STEPHMENS I was stationed in Ghana; working on Government contracts for many years. I know it's politics and economics better than you.

@@time4advancement244 you're right, these people don't want to tell the truth. These youtubers also don't tell the truth and only show the elite 1% while ignore the struggle of the real Ghana.

Ghana's economy is failing; you people do not understand economics. For example, your current Prez has plunged the country into enormous debt. Please, learn to read and stop watching fashion videoz

@@time4advancement244 nd what country are u from? I kinda ve an idea. Why don't u promote ur useless country instead of hating on ghana? Nd let me school u on economics. Every nation has debt. Ghanas debt is actually one of the smallest in the world comparing debt to gdp. Now how much debt does ur useless country owe?

Stephen Obeng But why do we need her there?

@@blackblaze5271 Because you Africans love other cultures more than you love yourselves.

@@time4advancement244 That's kind of my point 😑 We just got through dealing with non-black invaders in our lands and many of them still mistreat us in their countries

Thank you so much appreciate it ❤️✨

You speak french?

@@markntiri8251 yes sir

Thanks v much

Sometimes you need the negativity. Life is a mixture of things not just one thing.

@@Biobele true

@ALAIN MEKOYO It is inferiority complex A British man is a British man yeah they have sub groups, An American, a Japanese etc are what they are, A European would not be mad at you or correct you for calling him European same as an Asian. Only Africans will be quick to explain how they are totally African because they have some Arab ancestors, or how they are more south African than they are African. Many Africans LOVE their invaders, their forced culture and customs than their parents and their original selves that is why things are the way they are. We (Africa/Africans) are seems as the dust bin of the world, everyone can go to the dustbin (the cook, the owner of the house, the maid, the madam of the house and the children of the house, even visitors and scavengers are allowed to rummage through). The children of the house are not allowed to play in or around the waste bin meanwhile those who are in the waste or the waste itself is not allowed into the sitting room and the dinning and the bed rooms Infact any waste found in those places are thrown out immediately. You may need to read this two or three times to fully understand it. This is why it amazes me when Kenya, Ghana, south Africa, Egypt, Algeria, Morocco and co. Claim to be better than or think of themselves as better than other Africans. It's like saying I am a more useful waste than this other waste, it does not matter WE ARE ALL WASTE. Yes, You may be neater or fancier but in the eyes of those in the sitting room and dinning table you are still in the trash and the trash is filthy and should be avoided. You may have a fancy house but if it's in a crime ridden neighborhood in the worst part of town, no normal person in that town would want to risk it. This explains the poor treatment Africans receive world over and rather than challenge the west, challenge the middle east and co. Africans believe that creating a new bottom will help them go up or make others think they are up. If Africa as a whole acts for example ban all exports of cocoa and oil to Belgium and Switzerland and others until travel restrictions or lifted or until stolen artefacts are returned or until work conditions of Africans or even all black and people of African descent are improved then Africa and Africans will be respected What I mean is if 1. Africans treat ourselves better 2. Africans help each other 3. Trade with each other 4. Be interested in each other Our value will improve Imagine all 1.2 billion Africans buying made in Ghana pens or made in Nigeria rice or patronising one product from each African country what it will do for us But instead in our minds we have an hierarchy we priorities 1. The Arab man's god or the European god 2. Our colonial masters 3. America 4. Europe 5. Asia 6. Our various tribes 7. Our country 8. one country that is almost like our country 100. Some African country Europeans say is good We Africans hold the EXACT stereotypes EUROPEANS and Americans hold of us we hold those stereotypes of ourselves so how can we improve? Its impossible What I observe is Africans being content with mediocrity. South Africans feel like well at least we aren't the most hated or most stereotyped so no need to complain or stand up for those other African countries instead let us do exactly what Arabs and Europeans are doing to us to the poorer countries around us, it makes absolutely no sense to me especially from the view of RESPECT TO AFRICANS. Understand this: if the west and Arabia is getting rich from cheap labour, exploitation of raw materials from Africa and elsewhere and all that, where do you think you Central Africa Republic or you Guinea Bissau will get your own cheap labour from and your own cheap or free raw materials from? You are the cheap labour so you can't develop. You will only be used to develop others. so this explains why you'll hear south Africans say we are not black like you, you'll hear some north Africans claim they are Arabs or Muslims and everything else before they ever acknowledge they are on the African continent and are Africans You'll hear east Africans say they are habeesha and everything else before they accept they are black Africans, they will rather say they are burnt or their faces are burnt and they'll do well to remind you they are different from the Black's elsewhere. I can tell the difference between pride in your own culture or identity and inferiority complex. This thing Africans have is inferiority complex they are ashamed to admit they are black or African. The solution comes When you first admit I AM AFRICAN, then you will realise you have to do what you can to improve the image of Africa rather than try to introduce a new identity or hide under other people's identity whether they be Islam, Arab, Israelites, hotep, and run away from the African identity by running away from it you are trying to avoid liability, trying to escape doing your part to improve the perception people have of Africans

Our history and present is both beautiful and complex. Sometimes we have to create space for positive uplifting content, as well as space for telling the truth. We cannot fail to learn. In that regard, the definition of negativity is subjective in the African experience and context. I absolutely love this video and the shop owners work!

That is so sweet you wanting to buy that wedding dress for your wife, most men would not have a clue LOL

As a Ghanaian I also wish you advise your Ghanaian cousins to stop being dishonest to foreigners....how about that for responsibility?

@@mrw1762 DISHONEST? Did you say? Show me which foreigner around the world is honest, and I will show you mangoes grow in space. The problem with us Ghanaians is we are not patriotic enough to support our own. We like to fight tooth and nail protect the foreigner always, so they take advantage of us, with the help of people like you. I DONT DISLIKE OR HATE FOREIGNERS , but we have to support our own like everyone does around the world except us.

Ghanaians also mistreat their maids/ house help, so this advice should be for Ghanaians as well.

So true, can they stop abusing housemaids in Lebanon.

@@joemensah9557 you already being dishonest. Have a good day, sir.

Jake Baba We should want black owned businesses. I don't understand why people are celebrating letting african culture/fashion be owned by a non-african. Why should we even care that there's some lebanese woman making clothes?

Did you hear her say that she is part Ghanaian, a Fanti???? She is part Ghanaian and part Lebanese. Rawlings was part Scottish and part Ghanaian, so what are you talking about?????

@@jakebaba2149 How do you confirm that? Anyone can claim anything. And why is it relevant that a mixed person was dictator for some time in ghana? Do you want ghana to turn into a place for mixed or what? What exactly is your point? Weird how 'black pride' includes so many non-black people these days who very much don't respect you and never have.

Oh yeah! How about this???? You, as an individual, are not of the ethnicity that you claim to belong in Africa, according to your own unwise statements here about this hardworking Ghanaian entrepreneur doing her business in Ghana. YOU ARE NOT OF THE AFRICAN ETHNICITY YOU CLAIM TO BELONG TO. HOW ABOUT THAT????

@@jakebaba2149 Ok, you can claim that, but we're not discussing me. If we were then it'd fair to want proof. But I think the proof would be as clear as my face. I don't see anything about her that indicates her connection to any particular tribe. She looks as lebanese as any other lebanese Also you can call her a hardworking 'ghanaian' all you want, but that doesn't change the dynamic between you and her and how the world regards the both of you. Particularly her favored status above you in your country and in hers. We've already gone through this before. If you want to give favor and hand over your businesses and every aspect of your life to other groups you can go ahead and suffer the consequence later when they're priviledged above you. I'm not going to support it Black locals only

Naaa she sounds Ghanaian

You are right🙏🏻

she wont

She won't show any struggle videos, kindly follow BBC and CNN, they are champions when it comes to showing struggles of Africa. Thanks

Why Miss Trudy ? She is Vanessa for God sake.

Don't forget actor Majid Michel who is also half Lebanese.

Those who understand economics or have studied economics in high school or university , would understand that Ghana & ∆fric∆ are indeed rising economically. Also returning to it's former celebrated glory , is our great ∆fric∆n🤎😍 culture . Worldwide none other better.

@ALAIN MEKOYO Don't be stupid ok. Some were there before Ghana's independence ok. Some of them their parents were even born in Ghana. How many African were born in Lebanon? We're talking about citizens not migrants ok. Because of Nkrumah's Pan Africanism ideas many people came to Ghana to help Ghana to gain independence, after the independence, Nkrumah declared everyone in Ghana as citizens of Ghana including some Indians, Lebanese, Jamaicans and even some African Americans.

@@zigibeat3689 "Because of Nkrumah's Pan Africanism ideas many people came to Ghana to help Ghana to gain independence, after the independence, Nkrumah declared everyone in Ghana as citizens of Ghana including some Indians, Lebanese, Jamaicans and even some African Americans. " liar.

@@maxk5831 What's the difference of what I said and what you saying? The focus was on the Lebanese- Ghanaian . Watch this Ghanaian with Indian heritage who was born and grew up in Kumasi. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pKea1JAqw6E.html

That’s not an American accent

It's the classic "International school" accent that a lot of people have in Africa.

Actually that's an international school accent with moments of Ghanaian accent cadence.

An American in America wrongly sees the world through American eyes . The world outside America , wrongly sees America through the world's eyes .

@@adetorrent alot of who, have what in Africa I listen to a lot of Africans speak English they dont sound like her at all bro I'm American I know what English sound like

She was born in Ghana and had a Ghanaian grandmother. So what do you mean an Arab lady coming to Africa?

The Arabs in North Africa are Africans too and don't forget the Arabs in East Africa. The regional lingua franca there, Kiswahili, is a Bantu language with some Arabic vocabulary. She's not some rare 'species' on the continent.

She is Ghanaian born from Ghanaian Mother and a Lebanese father

@@Ada-zg2qb official inflation for Ghana last month was 27.5 % which is the highest we've had for many years. It was mainly attributed to fuel price hikes on the world market and depreciation of the local currency. Your folks aren't lying.

@@trueamerican769 Please stop being insecure. It's unattractive

You can definitely open a boutique here in America!! With all of the beautiful African fabric.

Yes if they choose to .
