Papa Owusu Ankomah, Ghana’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, has assured the Ghanaian community in the UK that they are not impacted by the current protests.
The protests, which began in late July, were triggered by misinformation about immigrants following a stabbing attack in Southport, northern England, that tragically claimed the lives of three children.
A series of demonstrations against immigrants has spread through key cities in the United Kingdom, causing anxiety and distress among Africans residing in the nation.
The demonstrations, which have been growing in intensity in recent weeks, have resulted in an increase in incidents of harassment, intimidation, and violence against African immigrants.
Young Africans residing in the UK are using social media to convey their fear and anxiety, posting videos and messages to caution fellow Africans to take precautions.
