Ghana’s sitting president, Nana Akufo-Addo has joined the millions of people across the globe to seek justice for an unarmed African American – George Floyd.
Nana Akufo-Addo in a lengthy post on his official Instagram page condemned the killing of George Floyd.
He noted:
“Black people, the world over, are shocked and distraught by the killing of an unarmed black man, George Floyd, by a white police officer in the United States of America. It carried with it an all too painful familiarity and an ugly reminder. It cannot be right that, in the 21st century, the United States, this great bastion of democracy, continues to grapple with the problem of systemic racism.
On behalf of the people of Ghana, I express my deep condolences to the family and loved ones of the late George Floyd.
We stand with our kith and kin in America in these difficult and trying times, and we hope that the unfortunate, tragic death of George Floyd will inspire a lasting change in how America confronts head-on the problems of hate and racism.”
