My mom from Ghana, Dad from Montego Bay Jamaica, and I was born and raised in Georgetown DC, my first girlfriend now my wife from Ghana, we have been in Ghana for 5 times now building apartments for rent in ABURI MOUNTAINS just 15 minutes drive to the Nation's capital. Moving to the Motherland is the best decision. Why?because there's no place like African continent, the safest place on this earth 🌍🇬🇭🇯🇲
Im looking to bring capital behind me looking to build. We should talk offline.
@@offthewheel be smart and Acqire land fast
@@offthewheel buy the land outskirts pls , it ll be cheaper for u and my brother can help u as I’m in London Uk 🇬🇧 now
Cheap land doesnt always equal the best land. We are looking to buy the most appropriate land for our project..
@@offthewheel just came across your channel and love the information you provide. I am Guyanese and my wife is Ghanaian residing in Canada. She will be coming home after about 12 yrs in about 2 weeks.
She will be there to get a feel of the land in terms of of buying land( commercial and residential) and real estate.
We are in our early 40s and thinking and planning where we want to retire and what to do. Ghana seems to be a perfect fit.
On a side note: love Mitai. Our (Guyanese) history is linked to Ghana - our national hero is Cuffy (Kofi) and there is documentation of slaves who were born in Ghana and brought to Guyana.
It's my opinion that Guyana is like a mini Ghana. Cuffy the 1763 monument in my profile is an Akan that was sold into slavery who led a revolt against the Dutch owners of the Magdalenburg plantation in Berbice Guyana. Dale you are a warrior!
Just to put it out there that Cuffy is Kofi (a given name for a male born on Friday) . It’s definitely an Akan name - Ghanaian name . 2000 years of history cannot be wiped away so easily .
Africa (Ghana) loves you all.... Humanity begins from Africa
Thank you.
You two are lucky to have each other. SO PERFECT
Come on Lebron. I'll be your friend, your Body guard, your Contractor, anything you want. Ghana will welcome you like heaven. Please come to Ghana and I bet you will never regret it.
Sat through watching every experience of urs......I did enjoy myself watching.....proudly Ghanaian...tnx to all the wonderful compliments abt Ghana, we still improving n we ll surely get there
We hope we can add our two cents in a positive way.
I really enjoyed your "Belly" intro with NAS talkin' about going to the Motherland - Alkebu-lan...
The “experts” said that intros should all be under 30 seconds.
But it’s all worth it when someone appreciates the hip hop aspect as well!
Chaiiii this woman is truly Ghanaian 🤩😃🥇🥇🥇🇬🇧
Oh wow am a Ghanaian living in Germany and I have just subscribed to your channel due to the fact that you've conscientise me to invest in Africa at large and for that matter Ghana thanks.
Thank you and keep tuning in for some developing news surrounding investment in Ghana.
I was so excited to see that you posted a new video!What beautiful footage.You two were glowing in Ghana, love to see it❤
Thank you Kaia. We plan to post about once a month .. after all, we still running on the wheel!!!!!
Awesome move. I will be relocating there Fall 2023 from North Carolina. My home will be ready May 2023. I have subscribed so plan on following you guys.
That's great to hear ... see you on the other side.
The bank is grounded maize made into flour which you can eat with any stew or soup and any fish or 🍗 meat
Lovely lovely.
May the nature bless all of black race that coming back to the motherboard.
Call Africa.
Thank you Kanbu
This is a fantastic piece. Welcome home 🇬🇭. We love you all
19:23 so true! It's easier to make connections in Ghana than where im from (Europe). Love the video! Foods like banku, kenkey, fufu etc are definitely acquired tastes lol.
Welcome to the motherland, welcome Home. Enjoy your stay Mum and Dad.
Thank you!
Good job! Btw Orca has been in Ghana for years that branch was just refurbished. Also check out palace mall. Also the delivery that is very normal for shops here in Ghana. In fact there are even cases where you buy and they follow you with the goods.
Thanks for the info Snow Ball!
nice to see you guys again.
Thank You.
Black people have their roots in Africa and whilst they have every right to return to motherand from the diaspora my concern has always been and continue to be the impacts local in terms of costs of everything as they move in with their dollars etc the economy becomes dollarised. We are already seeing this happening.
This is an issue that we aim to explore.
As victims of gentrification at various times in our live (see video # 2) we are very aware of the impact we bring; both good and bad.
Is the answer total isolation for all African countries to not allow in any kind of foreign investment?
Is there not a game plan that we could create that would be a net net positive?
These are questions we will cover in our video that I alluded to about the impact of the Black American Dollar in Ghana.
If you are interested in providing your point of view for that video, please let me know.
Love that you start the video with the ending from the previous video! Production quality and your video shot angles, timing are great!
Great video as usual. I wish you all the best in your stay in Ghana!
Thank you Atiga! Hope to bring you more value.
Lets invest in Africa!
Its coming!!!
Check your health first diabetes is killing a lot of black people who do not want to admit there are diabetic the coke is not a good drink, just throw some on a copper coin you will see what happens
My second visit to your channel and loving it already 👍🏾😊. I was touched deeply when you made mention of the indescribable feeling to connect with others. I miss that a lot . In Ghana the entire community is responsible for raising a child and that sense of community engagement resonates and comes naturally 😇. Am happy for you guys and I would be following your journey with keen interest, all the best fam🙏🏾
Thank you Chris, we really do appreciate the kind words and support.
My fiance and I are planning on moving to Ghana soon. We are coming to visit for the first time in August and would love to connect with you Guys Dale and Dacia. Your story resonates with us so much. We are both from Jamaica, but grew up in NYC and now we are living in Florida. We are so ready to leave America for Africa. Hope to connect with you guys soon.
Absolutely! We don't escape NYC until mid Sept., but please go to our website and send all of your personal contact details.
Eden Heights is a nice community. A bit pricey though, compared to the nearby townhomes. But it has great facilities. Another good thing about the place is that West Hills is just a walking distance.
Good day,
Price is relative.
There are many places in Ghana we could not afford.
So we all have to be financially responsible with what we have and we can stretch it over a lifetime.
We have both lived in all kinds of arrangements here in the states; housed, condos, townhouses, etc.
We just picked what we were used to and what made sense for US at this age/stage in life.
Thank you for the comments.
Great job please keep it up
Thanks, will do!
Banku is made of fermented corn and cassava dough. Banku has tangy fufu has no taste so the taste is in the various sources and meat or fish
Am excited for your journey.
Thank you sir.
Love This All The Way! You are about the business at hand!😃 - Must be a Brooklyn-Thing!😂CONGRATULATIONS! What a tremendous blessing. Thank you for reassuring me about the furniture delivery, installation and WiFi installation. That is very encouraging. I think we may be in the same complex! That would be amazing. We are very interested in the real estate investing. Please provide more info. Looking forward to meeting you both in the near future! #WeAreOnTheMove!
Thank you Darlene. My wife is excited to meet you.
Regarding the R.E. investing, I can't say much in these comments. The deal I'm working on will be regulated by SEC/FINRA, so there are lots of guardrails I must adhere to.
I will be releasing pieces in following videos as Im allowed.

That view sitting in those red chairs is beautiful 😍
Red chairs $10 .... "peace" of mind ... priceless!
God be with u all
I looooovvveee your intro 💗💗💗
Appreciated. All the TH-cam experts say to keep your intro to 30 seconds or you will lose your audience. To that I say our audience just might appreciate our intro!!!
Welcome home ❤❤❤❤
The next time that you all visit the states consider going to The World of Coke in Atlanta, Georgia. There is a huge area toward the end of the visit that houses Coke products from all over the world. Tasting what “familiar Coke products” taste like on different continents is an interesting experience. 😋 #TasteTest✅
Hilarious! So happy for u guys!
Sounds like you had a fun weekend, almost like newly married and first time homeowners taking possession.
Don't know if you've ever visited the Coca-Cola museum; Coca-Cola has different recipes for different countries, which could account for the difference in taste
Thanks for sharing your experience ♥️👏🏽🙏🏽
Hi Dale. Marriage agrees with y’all. You all look good. Good information about the city. Aunt Madeline
Thank you Aunt Madeline. With the right person, New York City becomes too small.
Here we go!!
Your wife did the correct pronunciation of the captain Yaw
I can’t believe I actually watched you guys till the end 😅. Damn you guys are cool to watch and listen to 🫡
Beautiful 🤩
Yes, Kempiski is top class and expensive.
Hope, u’ve learned ur lessons 👌
The driver was right lol 😆
Your wife pronounces the name very well , & she is so much on Point ! She is right is Yaw, not yow
Bro Coke either diet or otherwise is bad for your health.
Bless up.
Watching from Sydney
I have said to myself, I would sleep in a tent and be super happy if it was on the beautiful land I just bought in Africa. LOL (Probably just for a short time, but I would still be smiling.)
I agree!
Your wife's pronunciation of Yaw is the correct one
Banku is made of corn doe n cassava doe mix together
You can get nice storng ghana made furniture for cheaper price.
When you cook it saves money and if you wouldn't mind buy foodstuffs from the market
Interesting journey 😃😅😅😅 mattress part weak me
Oh not another one to follow .i say this with no malicious. Look forward to journey.
I look at it like a buffet, not everything channel is for everyone, you tune in to what serves you and gives you value.
I hope that black Americans will take care of their health when leaving America for Africa. Rwanda and Namibia are the best of Africa. Ghana is becoming little new York the carribean mission there AA is there, it's becoming so swamp, that homes and land is becoming so pricey the locals are becoming angry
I just found you on TH-cam. I'll watch the remaining videos and decide if I want to join your group. Overall, I enjoy the videos, but I have a few suggestions.
1. In this video, you talked about all the things you had to buy but didn't mention the cost of anything that you bought. THAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT THING THAT FOLKS LIKE ME WANT TO KNOW!!! In fututre videos, please tell us how much things cost. I know the costs may be outdated by the time someone sees the video, but it will still give us some idea of what to expect. Please give the prices in both Cedis and dollars.
2. It's better if you let her talk more and you talk less. You speak very slowly and hesitantly and you have long pauses as you speak. It makes it hard to hold peoples' attention. I found myself dozing off when you spoke. She makes her point quickly and efficiently. If you can speak faster and make your point. It would be very helpful.
3. When you cut in your videos of things that you do, make them longer. You just show the videos for a few seconds and then cut back to the main video. The segment of you on the boat going to the beach was good. Take that much time for all the segments you use in your videos.
Please continue to show us your journey. It's very interesting. I'll be traveling to Ghana this summer and the information you're providing is very helpful.

Just one boat 🚤 3 languages 🤣🤣🤣🤣
We need you more than you need Africa, Please come and educate our Politicians to do the needful, they've sold our continent to the Europeans please come and deliver us.
Thats a tall order and a lot of pressure, but we do believe we can be a positive addition and hope to bring people like us along.
Africans listen more to Europeans, Chinese and any one whose skin is not black, than they would listen to black Americans so the fight will be on you. As soon as AA get involved they will be the first ones to be kicked out look at all the gold and diamonds that the Chinese are shipping g home. Did you see that big Rock on a truck the Chinese had loaded up to ship to China, they probably knew it had diamonds in side, what happen to it I don't know.
I’m very happy your move is going well. I subscribed, I will share and follow 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 but your wife pronounced Yaw correctly. It’s YAW not YOW 🤣🤣.
Yeah, the wife is usually right! Thanks brother for the follow and we look to give you good content.
Welcome to The Motherland 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭💖💯family,Am ghanaian residence in South Africa. Greetings

Thank you for the follow.

Tell your children to buy you step down from Amazon so you can use it, because lights going off can mess up your appliances thank you
Nice!!
So many plans. Why couldn't you get your keys on Saturday?
try and drink the bottle one not the plastic bottle
Guys, I'm getting some vibes that you folks are somewhat looking for America in AFRICA ? ? Africa isn't America or Europe, don't go to AFRICA looking for America or industrialization on STEROIDS. Africa is closer to NATURE, still precious, much less tainted, and with more purity. America and Europe can keep their industrialization on STEROIDS, Africa doesn't need to copy and be just like them. When you're in AFRICA, learn to appreciate and VALUE the AFRICAN way of life and things. Africa don't need stores like Target, Marshalls, etc, that promote more environmental pollution in consumption of items such as, plastics for housewares, etc. Or maybe, I got the wrong vibe about you folks being a bit BOOGEE or so. Anyways, SALUTE 👉🏾✌🏾👍🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Good day Owen and thanks for your response.
We are simply looking for peace on earth.
There are some things that Im looking to replicate in Ghana if possible and there are many things we will have to leave behind.
A lot of responses to what you said will be covered in our next video.
Again, I appreciate your thoughts and comments.
@@offthewheel Heard it ! ! SALUTE 👋🏾✌🏾👍🏾👉🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
What kind of BS is that. Did they say anything negative about Ghana ? No. So what makes you think it is ok to make such a dumb comment ? Be humble and respectful since they never said anything negative. Wow, what is wrong with people ?
Ur wife is right Yaw
I don’t know if that is your wife but if she is,, damn you are a lucky man 💯
Please the Diet Coke has a black cover not red!!!!
See, this is the kind of info that I need!!!!
Diet coke/coke is not good for us on any continent.
_POISON..._ or *DIET* _POISON._
🤣🤣
Anyways your wife pronounce the name right “yaw” 😎
❤Cokerkola in Internal MOTHER LAND AFRIKAA is original tasty 😋
Something else bad just happened in Buffalo New York
41:50 her pronunciation is right lol
38 mins, I thought the fridge wasn't good at all, I was afraid that that is what you were going to say, but this "European" plug thing is not an Issue, you guys are too pampered,, I bought a water cooker and that has European plug and I had to buy a switch board to reconnect so dear friends, no big deal, in my opinion, but nice video and akwaaba
Secondly talk to friends
Banku is made up with corn doe and cassava
Are you guys in Ghana yet?
We were just in Ghana for a week to get last minute items. We move back in September.
Yeah, the lights are one of the problems in Ghana, you will not have consistency light on.
Yes, we arranged for auto generator backup.
She pronounced best captain yaw

Ur wife pronounce Yaw correctly
Wife is always right. Im always wrong.

He’s a billionaire in Ghana
You look exactly like him
He’s Akan man
Your face looks typical Akan

It ll be nicer to buy ur land in Ghana 🇬🇭 and start building
Coke, diet coke? First World problem🙄
I’m glad to hear you guys are enjoying your stay in this country. My little advice though… just be careful of fraudsters and bad people will try to take advantages of you guys just becos you from America . Wish you guys all the best 🫶🏾
We from New York! Our fraud alert is on high mode!
If they can survive the fraudsters and bad people In Newyork im sure they will be just fine
ON the matter of the coke it takes different even for the regular coke because what you taste is not sugar but stevia which is a plant sweetener. You can even faintly taste the chlorophyll in the stevia. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stevia
Banku is made of fermented corn and cassava dough. Banku has tangy fufu has no taste so the taste is in the various sources and meat or fish
