Former President John Mahama has issued a heartfelt appeal to individuals of African descent, urging them to seize the opportunity provided by the right to abode law to relocate to Ghana. Speaking at the Universities Studying Slavery Conference in Halifax, Canada, on October 19, Mahama emphasized the importance of Africans taking the initiative to heal from the injustices inflicted by colonization.

In his keynote address, Mahama made it clear that the responsibility of healing and reconciliation should be shouldered by the African community themselves, rather than relying on external efforts of atonement.
