If this interview come on tv this girls will not be happy in Ghana , the girl with the big boobs she have to go to Nigeria finish we don't need finish.
Agreed‼️ Re-education is imperative. Decolonization teachings is imperative ‼️ The business registration process for Africans worldwide should be easier‼️ How can growth of people and community be expected if business amongst each other is made to be difficult and with so many restrictions?‼️ Tourism doesn’t generally help the masses directly and consistently. And tourism isn’t community ‼️ Nations thrive from community ‼️ ALSO slavery is not abolished here in the states. Read the 13th amendment, then look at the private prison [system] 🤔 We have work to do people. And we’re doing it, so don’t hesitate to join in any level of positivity. Love to all. Bless.
Wow what a ‘breath of fresh air’. Portia is really in the grove within a few months has been able to hit on the obvious that not even the so universities or social scientist have the courage to comment on. Some of us recall having ‘civic education’ engaged in volunteering and learned each others languages. Suddenly there’s ‘dominance’ by one group over the other. My language is being superseded by other in Accra.
It's mind boggling. I just watched an interview on Jimmy Kimmel of a young Black Brit actress called India Amarteifio and some people in the comments were claiming Amarteifio is an Ewe name. It's sad that people cannot even identify the cultural markers of different groups. The government has to do more to promote awareness of the country's indigenous diversity
Wow.. I'm so incredibly impressed with this brilliant young lady's mind set and life experience.. She speaks Pearls of wisdom and hope for Mother Ghana 🇬🇭
Stop envy, 80% percent of entire Ghanaians speak twi, if you don't want to speak, speak your own lauguage, no one false you to speak twi, and in Ghanaians diaporas, 80 % percent speak twi, in Germany here, you can't meet me and speak hausa or Ewe to me, every one speak twi, or English, but more Ghanaians speak twi in here, unless you meet your tribe mate, soo stop envy
Portia, your comment about twi is a bit of a stretch. Twi is simply a language of commerce in most markets/trading spots. Asantes don't have inferiority complex as you claim and do not seek impose twi on non-twi speaking Ghanaians.
@@andrewasibey371 you must not go to the market often, many of the market women are gas and ewes it’s not a language of commerce, it’s a matter of superiority, self centeredness and lack of effort. Every language is equally easy and hard to learn, the Ga language is vanishing and that’s not okay. I’m not Ga and can still emphasize and still make sn effort to learn it out of respect for living on Ga land. I am told on a regular basis if I don’t speak twi I’m not Ghanaian which is ridiculous. No one is more or less Ghanaian than any other tribe or dialect speaker.
I would like to say something to Miss. Gana, what you have to say is way too important not to have a TH-cam channel just for the extra exposure alone. There is a large majority of us with money that aren't on Instagram, or Facebook that need to hear what you have to say. Please open the door of communication to expand your wealth of knowledge to TH-cam.
It's the lack of unity that is holding all of us back. Black folks everywhere in this world, not just Ghana. It's the same problem everywhere with us. Until we solve that we will remain on the bottom.
This lady speak fact and history. This African countries been independent for some years not more than 40 to 60 years. Where they now still stragglers. Road electricity Water School system and business is chaotic. Canada and US been Independent for more than 500 years. Come one People be fair with your comparison!!!!!
Please, no Ashante person thinks like that way. It’s just that the Twi is the dominant language, even among the Akan ethnic group. So, please stay away from that impression that the “Ashantis think they have the superior power “.
You're joking right? Many Ashantis believe they are superior in Ghana. Meanwhile still living in poverty like most others. So the delusion is very sad to see. To the extent that it leads to a sense of entitlement, poor decision making in politics and bad inter ethnic relationships which hinder Ghanas development.
@@akosuaagyeman8218 It looks like you lack comprehension. Do you know what 80 percent is? Do you know how many countries speak Hausa or Ewe? Mmanka Mutumbanza! When you leave the borders of Ghana go and speak Twi to the indigenes.
@@PracticallyAfrican masa we are not taking about borders, we are talking about whole Ghana and entire world, even in Germany here if any Ghanaians meet, only twi every one speak,, you can't speak hausa or Ewe in here to let me Ansah you, stop envy
Young ladies like her do not understand the value . When they becoming a mature woman no man will desires use goods. You'll always be able to get a man but keep one will not be easy. Unless he has low standards and very low self-esteem. 🤔❓
Portia, are you viscerally anti Akan? If you are, you are swimming against the tide. According to the 2021 Ghana population census, Akans represent 45.7 % of the total population of Ghana. Ewes' share is 12 8% and that of the Ga-Adangwe is 7.1%. The data shows why Twi is widely spoken throughout our country. It is a common knowledge that in most societies the language of the majority prevails. You will recall in Canada the French Canadians felt and still feel resentful for speaking English. And as you are aware separatism is still alive in Quebec. As a student at Université Laval in the mid 70s, I witnessed at first hand separatist politics across the Province of Québec. I am also a Ghanaian-Canadian. Returned home after retirement!
So what exactly is your point sir/ma'am? Does it matter if 90% of the Ghanaian population are Akan? Does that also make the 10% who can't speak twi non Ghanaian or anti Akan? Classic superiority complex?
@@kukuakukua Interesting that of all the grossly important points raised in this very insightful interview with this obviously brilliant and critical thinker the "tribe" aspect is the one this person decided that would be the one to resonate with them 😏. We are a damaged people in dire need of a mental reset I swear.
Separatism isn’t just about language it’s about two separate country folk being forced into one new one, you’ll always have separatists who aren’t even serious. All over Canada you will find some towns that are strictly French. I’m not anti anyone I am pro respect for all and that people should not try to establish dominance and diminish other’s languages. Canada could easily turn into a fully English country as its majority but it respects the French side regardless of defeating them and incorporated French in all government things. And depending on where in Canada you are they fully cater to immigrant languages, with street signs and language requirements in the institutions like banks.
Is she crazy or what? Akan is the largest ethnic group in Ghana and the most spoken local language in Ghana is Twi. So why is she so uptight when she's asked if she speaks Twi? No one is saying Twi is the only language spoken in Ghana but it is the most common language spoken besides English. Please do not make it about Ashantis. If you have your prejudices and biases then say it after all it's a free world. And don't let your ignorance lead you. Peace and Light.
@@jeffreykofikarikari4334 ''we still continue to rule them'' You lost.. and badly! Lol it's only by the grace of other Kingdoms that your language still exists and that you still have a stool to sit on today so show some humility. Ashantis bearly if even contributed much to Ghanas independence so remove your entitlement.
This woman is very intelligent.
They sure move to Nigeria finish more rich men's there .
Portia is politically and socially correct. She’s hitting every nail right on.
My point is simple: the language of the majority dominates in most societies across Africa, including our own.
Nice interview 👍
Very insightful young lady, she expressed some very profound thoughts.
THANK YOU! Some of us our FANTI and EWE ETC ❤HER
I really like this woman because she's able, very able to THINK FOR HERSELF. Absolutely wonderful. I'd love to hang out with her and converse.
20:08 shes making a lot of sense. Her points are valid
Ghana need this lady and I personally think she should go into politics.
Who need them in Ghana they move to Nigeria finish nobody need them in Ghana
@@larrymalcomx8198 eii you’ve commented so many times, why are you so pressed/triggered?
Portia is so right, this behaviour is through out our people in most black country,
Very smart lady. 👏🙌
We need to have conversations like this one and work together to build better infrastructure and provide employment for locals (Ghanaians).
I think you should show this interview on TV.
If this interview come on tv this girls will not be happy in Ghana , the girl with the big boobs she have to go to Nigeria finish we don't need finish.
Well done Portia, you were so on point with every imput. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
They sure move to Nigeria finish nobody need them in Ghana

I love to listen to this lady talk
This girl is smart 👌🏿
She couldn't have said it better than anyone would put it.
That is good 👍👍👍👍
Correct girl. Tell them about that everyone wants you to speak Twi. That's not right and if you can't, you can't.

I enjoy your interviews and your work. But can you make your length in like 15 - 20mins. Bless you
You can watch 20 mins at a time on different days if you choose. You're not required to watch the full interview in one sitting.
Do many seniors travel to Ghana alone safely

The reprogramming start with the school education system.
OOOhh yeah, the employee issue.... poverty mentality
mental slavery is one of our biggest issue. Stockholm syndrome. In a shop, a worker will rush to serve a white than is fellow black
I said again go to Nigeria finish
Why?
Why should she go to someone else's country (even though she ia free to go wherever her passport allows her to)?
