We will go there, build a hospital, wells, supply them with water and help them with education. Go there and completely transform the entire village, and we are all going to make content together and help inspire more people to do good.
“I reached out to some of my friends to help push the message even more and inspire others, and I invited 20 of the biggest creators I know,” he said.
Some Ghanaians who reacted to the news stated, “ Although it’s embarrassing that an outsider is doing this in our country, we should encourage it. Let him transform it and make it look better than the mediocre transformations our leaders deliver with huge budgets.
Let it teach them how incompetent they have been. They travel to beautiful countries but are never inspired to improve ours. In 2026, we’re still dealing with choked gutters, villages without electricity or schools, and beautiful water bodies destroyed by galamsey”.
“Akwaaba, MrBeast 🇬🇭🇬🇭 this one be big news You dey come transform whole village for Ghana? We dey super excited.
Big shoutout to Wode Maya for the linkup. Come make we show you the real Ghana vibes, plus the energy 🔥🔥 Can’t wait!”, a netizen added.
“@JDMahama let your government work oo yoo an outsider sees Ghana to be poor, so he is coming later this year to show you that you can’t help your people, your country.. it’s very sad, spending millions on unnecessary things, but can’t help the people in our villages”, a netizen added.
One Ghanaian wrote, “Everyone in the comment section is praising him for what he’s coming to do in Ghana, but they don’t know how shameful this has caused the country and leaders in this country. We have everything in this country, but we have stood there for a white folk to come and transform our country”
Additioanly one more X user wrote, “Please leave Ghana alone. Ishowspeed is putting Africa out there and changing narratives. This man doesn’t even look or seem real. Because clearly this is what is happening! Someone sent that white speed to follow the guy to Africa! Get into Ghana, get to Burkina”.
