The Ghanaian seen in a viral video being manhandled by some South Africans have been brought back to Ghana.
This was after the Foreign Affairs Minister disclosed that his life would not be safe if he were made to stay back in South Africa.
Disclosing his arrival in a social media post, the minister said “We are delighted to welcome back home from South Africa our dear compatriot, Mr. Emmanuel Akowuah Asamoah.
I commend our High Commissioner to South Africa, His Excellency Benjamin Quarshie for accompanying our brother all the way.
As we have already announced, Ghanaians who wish to be relocated back home should contact our High Commission to be assisted at the Government of Ghana’s expense.
The Mahama Administration values every Ghanaian life anywhere in the world, and we shall never abandon our citizens in distress. Your welfare remains our utmost priority.
I look forward to hosting Mr. Asamoah when I return to Ghana later this week.
A warm Akwaaba to our cherished Ghanaian. It is well.
There is no place like home.
For God and Country”.
