An American missionary for the Latter Day Saints has come under fire from famed media personality, Nana Aba Anamoah for disparaging Ghana.
When Miss Jessica Clark Funk claimed that Ghana is rife with poverty, she infuriated Nana Aba and some online users.
Jessica made the claim that people in Accra who were hungry and living in poverty would prefer that the funds spent to build her church be utilized to eradicate poverty in their neighborhood in an effort to explain why people don’t like her church, The Church of the Latter Day Saints.
She claimed that the Ridge neighborhood of Accra, where their temple is located, is filthy, dusty, and has a terrible road.
According to Jessica Ridge, Accra is the ideal illustration of a city in a developing nation.
Nana Aba reacted angrily to the disparaging remarks about Ghana by claiming that Jessica’s response was less intelligent.
She advised Miss Clark to disregard the lies she had been fed about Africa, specifically Ghana, and learn the reality instead.

Here you are, @jessieclarkfunk. I knew I’d find you.
Those lies you spewed about Ghana made you look less intelligent. That we hate the Mormons? Madam, are you okay?
No one resents your temple.
The area your temple (the church of Latter Day Saints) stands in Accra (Ridge) is one of the richest, most peaceful and prestine neighbourhoods.
I’ll forgive your imbecilic comments about the poverty stricken and hungry people you claim you saw around that temple and assume you just wanted to appear relevant. You looked pathetic instead.
Indeed, we do have poor people here just as your country does too. There are so many Americans who call cars, shacks, tents and boxes their homes.
It’s 2023. Grow up.
It’s time to unlearn the truckload of lies you’ve been fed by some of the painfully lazy media platforms in your country about Africa. I’m willing to help you speak sensibly next time about a country that’s been kind to your ilk, church and any other organisation from your country. To be honest, they’d be shocked to the marrow to hear you speak this way about Ghanaians.
You lot need to stop making Africa a victim of your incredibly dumb agenda.
Have a wonderful day.
