Repatriation isn’t an act of kindness, it’s a right – Mahama

President John Mahama has declared that repatriation for people of African descent is a fundamental right rather than an act of charity, calling on African countries to establish legal pathways for members of the global African family to return and settle on the continent.“Repatriation is a right of all persons of African descent to return to the mother continent and settle or reside if they wish.”President Mahama highlighted Ghana's efforts to facilitate the return of the African diaspora, noting that the country enacted the Right of Abode Act in 2000 to allow eligible persons of African descent to live permanently in Ghana.
