Michael Blankson shares how Ghana Govt made him lose all his investments

Comic actor Michael Blackson recently took to social media to vent his frustrations over a failed investment attempt in Ghana, which left him feeling regretful about ever putting his money into the country.

Known for his humour and candid personality, Blackson’s latest outburst was far from light-hearted as he shared the financial losses he faced after trying to invest in what he believed would be a fruitful opportunity in his homeland.

In a series of social media posts, the American-born Ghanaian comedian revealed that he had been convinced by others that investing in Ghana would be a wise decision, a sentiment echoed by many promoting the idea of African diasporans contributing to the continent’s development.

However, Blackson now deeply regrets following that advice, as it has led to significant financial losses.

Michael Blackson expressed his anger and disappointment, specifically accusing the Ghanaian government of mishandling his funds.

He claimed that the money he had invested, along with that of others, had been used to pay off a Chinese loan rather than being directed toward the intended project.

Blackson’s frustration only deepened when he realised there was little to no accountability for what had happened.

According to him, government officials offered no concrete solutions, merely apologising for the situation without taking any meaningful action to remedy the loss.

In his rant, Blackson made it clear that he finds the apology insufficient.

He stated that the government’s failure to protect investors like himself has caused irreparable damage, and he doubts he will ever forgive them for the financial hit he endured.

His tweets hinted at deep dissatisfaction with how the country handles investment opportunities, leaving him sceptical about ever considering Ghana as a viable option for future ventures.

As a public figure with a significant following, Michael Blackson’s statements have garnered attention, sparking conversations online about the challenges investors, particularly those from the diaspora, face when trying to invest in their home countries.
