They make billions from national resources, donate a few thousand, and pretend like they love Africa too much”.

If it is to find seed money for them, out of the 200, even if 100 are able to make it will be better. Ghana is not a broke country; it is just that we don’t know where to put our capital.
There are people who need just a small help. That help I got, that Ghc 10,000, I am looking for people…Just that we are not disciplined. I gave someone who was struggling money, and you’ll see that they want to spend it,” he said.
He added, “If this man if he does well today, my children can meet him, and he will tell them your father is a good man”.
