Ghanaian repatriation from South Africa

Overview

Following the repatriation of over 1,700 Ghanaians from South Africa due to xenophobic attacks, a group of evacuees known as the ‘Evacuation Boys’ has pledged to support national development through sanitation and environmental cleanliness initiatives.

Operating under the slogan, ‘Evacuation Boys; We Came Back to Give Back,’ the group aims to transform their experiences into community contributions. Group leader Richard Addai has called upon the government and private sector to assist members with reintegration so they may contribute meaningfully to the nation.
