Final repatriation phase begins as another batch of Ghanaians is expected to leave South Africa

A fresh batch of Ghanaians stranded in South Africa following recent xenophobic attacks is expected to leave the country today, Saturday, July 25, as the government begins the final phase of its mass repatriation exercise.

The final phase of Ghana’s evacuation exercise for citizens affected by xenophobic attacks in South Africa begins today, with another batch of Ghanaians expected to return home.

Ghana’s High Commissioner to South Africa, Benjamin Quashie, announced the final phase of the operation on July 14, explaining that the move was facilitated through the intervention of the Office of the President and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in response to concerns over the welfare of affected Ghanaians.
