OMG she looks just like British Ghanaian June Sarpong. This interview is great, her confidence, passion and drive to succeed in Ghana is nothing short of amazing.
How much 2 acres cost
This was a fantastic interview. Sister Marissa, you have made Black/African-Americans, DC, and every Diasporan proud. Your tenacity, grit, and no-quit disposition are refreshing and inspiring. I believe that with all your talent and attributes, you would make a great Diasporan Ambassador.
Ghanaian are bad people
Enjoyed the segment. Very insightful
This young lady represents the true black American woman. I’m proud and happy to see her here.❤
Culture vulture you mean..
Lol definitely not a true black American maybe moved there when little as we can still detect an accent
@@nomorebs6025 She's definitely an African, born and raised in the diaspora. Isn't that all that matters?.
@@py20 then why make up stories when it's obvious she was taken there in a plane and not shackled in a ship ?
@nomorebs6025. I don’t even understand what your saying taken on a plane not ship? What? We are black Americans who NEVER knew anything or ever been to Africa until we came! Not sure what “not a true black American” means👀 but maybe you have no clue on what a black American woman is, well you just met one in this interview. Say less about what you DON’T KNOW. ✌🏾
Great interview. Thank you for the insight and inspiration. I'm a native Washingtonian Washingtonian since 1950. I was recently in Ghana 🇬🇭 7 weeks on my spiritual journey. Every day was like a miracles. Something I never experienced in the USA my entire life. I'm returning as an artist in residence for 4 months. I have 300 children waiting to learn my music and lyrics lyrics. Mother Africa Mother Africa Yes we love you Mother Africa. .
I'm a retired trainman, conductor for NJT Railroad. I've been writing, singing and performing for over 45 years. Now that I'm retired I'm living my dreams.. it's hard to get 5 children to sing in America.. in Africa I have several schools with hundreds of children hungry for new music that they can relate to.. music with a message and a reflection of their every day life.. I love Ghana. I'm moving there to spread love through music.. Peace, Unity and love

How amazing for those who are going to benefit from your tutelage. Black America is a huge knowledge tank that is not recognised or used in America. Africa can make way for the talent that is unrecognised and under utilised. Welcome back in advance❤
I am a Ghanaian American, and hearing experiences like this breaks my heart. These are some of the bottle necks that the government need to fix/reform. It is so embarrassing. They should make the ports better.

This is one of the many reasons why somebody may say the country is a failed state! When institutions of governance fail woefully to carry out their duties then everything and everybody suffers. We have been around long enough to correct little problems as waterfront efficiency.
What I learnt from this interview is that in order to succeed you have to be determined and not run back to the States when trials come, but see the trials as a learning curve
Absolutely
Her story is not everyone story, she was birthed into money, went to the best colleges in a America, she had money, many people will see this and think they can just pack up and go to Africa, just to get there and suffer. Please plan carefully because i know a lot of people that HAD to run back to America.
It also helps to have a sister or brother with you.
Trials? You mean the Africans breaking in looting, homes, reports of poisoning American women. Beating, mutilating killing women.
So this post is not referencing the women from the us, who have been scammed or killed and their residences looted and businesses taken over by Africans.
This is propaganda. Sadly, this coming to africa is a propaganda scam, and the promoter don’t care about the real dangers in africa, while the asians, caucasians and arabs never experience.
All these psychopath promoters do is never mention the three women killed in places like gambia, and the people in African steal their business after their killed, while these psychopaths promoters carry on like everything is ok.
The two elderly Black sisters from Detroit who were killed in 2015, one of the sisters reportedly beheaded, are simply never , mentioned again and the predators resume luring sincere but uninformed Americans (prey) to africa. Like the people in Ghana who were scanned out of their homes, like a year and a half ago by the Ghana govt, who seized their homes, then the Ghanaians looted their homes, while the homeowners could not do a thing.
Then these same Africans started putting up posts mocking these people being scammed by saying Black people from the us don’t have enough $ to live in africa.
These are old consistent stories. These mythical African promoters only want your money that it.
It’s simply the same scam. Wash rinse repeat. And anyone on any posts not honestly giving a simple disclaimer to even the daily scams Africans use to constantly get more money are part of the scam.
Ask the. To show video of their great success. I guarantee you if their from the us and successful, there are Africans scheming to take their business an run them out of that country.
There actually was an African guy from The us who returned to africa with a real estate business being jailed by the police who with crooked contractor tried to make him leave his business.
So please be careful.
You are absolutely right
This is one of the best interviews ever! This lady is smart, sympathetic, and beautiful. She has the mindset that would succeed in Ghana and Africa overall.
🙌🙌🙌🙌
Fellow Washingtonian here 🙋🏾♀️ in the process of planning my transition to Ghana. I truly love watching these conversations and interviews. Ghana is not easy oo, but those of us who have been called there are built differently. God bless this sista and her endeavors.
Marissa, I am absolutely so proud of you! Your mom, fellow alumni of Howard University, Karen Campbell, and your dad too, did a very fine job parenting you. Webnation Africa, thank you, thank you and thank you again for having Marissa on your show. Very informative, very educational, very consciousness raising! Peace & Blessings to you both!
Oh my sister is quickly getting the Ghanaian ACCENT OO!😀😀😀👏🏾👏🏾
Yes O, I can hear the Ghanaian intonation, it's beautiful.
It sounds more Nigerian to me oooo
@@abu66891 it sounds more nigerian to me oooo
😊@@abu66891
This Lady has a beautiful voice , I hope she does podcast, or a Radio ..
A beautiful, intelligent, respectful and humble Blackwoman is so powerful and seductive to behold as a Blackman.
U no go get am.😂😂
I think I'm in your dreams....😅
I no go get am because I have mine...lol
She's hot to boot
Most of you in the comments are only praising and going on about how beautiful this woman is, and failing to condemn the nonsense and corruption going on at the Port.
The lawlessness and corruption by customs is just unacceptable and the government seem to be doing nothing about.
The government is part of the corruption going on. Why will they do something about it.
It is so fascinating listening to her speak and sometimes I detect a slight Ghanaian accent slipping in which is cute!
😊 super cute! ❤
The mother land can't have its cake and eat it too. If we are reluctant to speak on our experiences without taking offense, nothing will improve. Thank GOD for this Queen speaking the truth. I'm tired of CZcamsrs who only show the progress minus the struggle.
No one thinks twice when the COLONIZING muzungus buy up all of the realestate. Self-hate is just as much a construct in Africa as it is in BABYLON. 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 🇲🇫
WELCOME these diasporans and share the knowledge. All will benefit.
The "self hate" is evident in every Black community around the globe; there are no exceptions. We have a crab mentality. We pull each other down. We look at life as a zero sum game that sees someone's success as the other's loss. We allow our differences to divide us. Some of us have a superiority complex that easily turn us into our own version of the colonizer. I could go on and on but you get my drift.
I'm glad that gradually, things are shifting in a positive direction. Hopefully this shift continues. But make no mistake -- wherever we have Black people, whether in America or Africa, we have unhealthy competition and self-sabotage, and the onus is on us to acknowledge this and proactively work to liberate ourselves, starting with our broken mindset.
@py20 so WELL SAID! 🤛👏💪
Every place has it's good and bad sides. I live right here in USA, specifically Pittsburgh. There are problems here too but I 'm here. Problems don't stop us from improving ourselves.
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview! Great job, Heyford. I could listen to Marissa all day - what a smart, beautiful, accomplished sister. Her perspective is very important to hear - she was not looking for refuge. She was not running FROM America. She was running TO Ghana, TO entrepreneurship, TO networking and development. I am a Caribbean-American girl, so I love that she has Caribbean roots in Jamaica. What she said is true - most Caribbean people tell me Ghana, Zambia, The Gambia all look and feel like home to Caribbean people.
As I'm watching this interview with discernment, I can clearly see that this beautiful woman would be Ghanaian herself if her ancestors weren't "Shipped " to America. She looks just like a Ghanaian woman, gappy teeth, beautiful smile and skin. She went to Ghana and just blended in. Now you "African Americans" are you still not seeing that WE ARE THE SAME PEOPLE!!!
She even has little Ghanaian accent
I feel you, this thing happens in so many black nations including the Caribbean The Lord is still on the Throne.
We were SOLD by other Africans. Stop trying to white wash history.
Most people from the Caribbean have West African ancestors. Marissa gives me the impression that her parents are from the Caribbean and she was born or grew up in the USA. She is a true West African Queen. May she continue to be blessed in Ghana.
Amen!
Your channel has grown exponentially bro. Congratulations!!
God bless her, she has more patience than i do.
Such a well rounded, level headed, emotionally mature and incredibly intelligent lady! LOVED this video. It’s nice to hear from someone coming to ghana with an open mind and heart to learn and exchange experiences and knowledge with the locals, as they both have so much to learn from each other.
This was a truly refreshing video.
So proud of you, Marissa. Thanks for sharing.
💯
One of the best interviews ever. She’s dynamic, smart,intelligent, powerful personality , passionate and has a positive attitude towards life and its curve ball. She’s a trailblazer. Mmm mmmm mmm wow
Jamaica is a small place, i understand her. All the best dear...and may your journey be excellently sweet...! ❤
This is what we call a determined spirit. love her energy. Bless her up and her family.
Hey Heyford, just wanted to say that you have grown so much as an interviewer. This was an amazing interview not only because of your guest but because of the questions you raised. Keep up the good work. And shout out to this beautiful queen that has been raised by great knowledgeable parents.
☺️Thank you 🙏🏿
That is true!
@@WebnationAfricaPlease Hayford try to show a beautiful places in your video, the Jamestown places you're showing is not a good and place, it will disgrace Ghana image , show beautiful house's for diaporas and foreigners to see Ghana beauty , we beg you Jamestown is not good to show, thanks
I agree...Heyfords questions were on point. Thank you so much for your insight Heyford!
Welcome home. Enjoy the land. With ❤ from London. I will be back this year
Hello my brother watching you from America really enjoyed your interview. Thank you for sharing.
This dear sister of ours is intelligent. Keep up what you are doing in Ghana. All of us good Ghanaians are with you. We are all one people.
Marrisa meeting you last year was amazing, though we didn't spend much time together before i left for UK. Your dreams are powerful.
I'm so proud of her!!
Don't tell people your business, be DISCRETE 😊 AND BLESS GOD.❤
Merissa is so lively. A go getter. Never say no person. How I wish we could also hear from her "fiery" sister too. Nice support system for Merissa in her transition to the motherland.
Home stability in upbringing very key in her mental and moral strength.Very decisive
What a fascinating "engine"! A very insightful narration of what to expect in Ghana. I love a well-spoken person and this lady is a Masterpiece in all angles. Congratulations, Marissa and may your blessings multiply. 🥰
Wow, this lady is inspirational & impressive.I love her mind.
Nuff respect
Bless up 🙏🙏❤️
What a brilliant interview. I love her being. To think bigger sometimes is difficult to see but the seeds of root strength at your feet are not easy to see. The seeds will grow as we together care for and create the future.
This interview is one of the best I have watched in a very long time. This is a woman who knows who she is, where she comes from, where she’s going, and I believe, wouldn’t let anyone make her feel otherwise .Africa belongs to all AFRICANS. If you are sure, look in the mirror, you will find your answer.❤
I loved this interview. I’m going to most definitely contact her before visiting Ghana.
Be careful if she will lie about her heritage she will lie about anything..I'm sure you know she isn't ADOS
Come I will help you
Thank you for being So honest and open with this information that can truly help Americans and other diasporans realize the red tape and archaic practices involved in opening a business in some countries.
Such a healthy minded lady. Thak you for your mindset.
This sister is the Best of the Best of African-Americans! She is the product of a proper experience in Black Excellence. I could listen to her all day. ❤️🖤💚
Thease are the talented people America is losing because of hate. Eventually many more will leave.
As if they care….,, you can’t be serious that they do.
To be frank the people that are leaving the USA for Ghana our not business savvy to sign a lease for a business location for only two years is a big no no also to sign a lease on land for fifty years than it’s up for renewal it baffles me it’s those disadvantages think about what savvy business owner would sell everything at a whim an move to restart and relearn the business landscape social media marketing mis information for a targeted audience to enrich a select few
Shes amazing but she and her sister look right at home and African. She sounds like a Ghanaian from the diaspora - it's lovely.
I love your confidence,am encouraged, you are are blessed.
Amazing story. Good job, Captain Hayford, and this beautiful lady.
Love this and I can’t wait to transition to Ghana 🇬🇭 I’ve been there 3 times and I want to make it home! GREAT INTERVIEW!
She might be easy on the eyes but she is no fool. Listening to her speak I see why she is successful in Ghana.
Why will she lie about her African heritage as I'm sure we can all hear her accent ..
@@nomorebs6025 why are you so concerned about her heritage?
How i wish the portion where she talks about the landlord will be shared on all social media platforms.
We are all quick to blame government yet we're worse. The government must fix so many things but we have a lot of work to do as a people as well.
Good interview, Webnation. The lady is very smart and full of determination.
I feel fortunate to see and support this vision. I am not black but never do I feel that I am not part of nature that calls me. We must address history in its truth.
L O V E L O U D
peace and abundance
🔥 ❤ 🔥
i ve' alwayz enjoyed your polite and honest interviews bro.keep up the good work
The landlord issues is everywhere in Africa. Keep on sister; the sky is the limit ❤thanks for being bold to relocate to Africa. Am from Gambia wanting to go back so bad but not bold enough to do it due to one of the few things you mentioned. Love your determination; very inspiring ❤❤❤
Shame on people trying to keep others down because they are envious or jealous!
Salute to this young lady…she saw a vision in the motherland, woman after my own heart ❤🇬🇭
I am glad she is resilient and has given the true story of the ups and downs of business in Ghana.
Awesome content Sir. Respect to the Sister. Perseverance and Determination prevails!🙏💙👍🙏
I believe she will become successful in Ghana. I wish her the best of luck
Amazing how you're still smiling and loving Ghana after all those nasty experiences. Great attitude. Much respect. Hope it works out for you.
L❤️✌️💋 THIS LADY! SHE'S VERY FOCUSED.
Keep going young Lady
We love you
Keep up the good work
God blessed you 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Young bro you've come a long way... I used to grit my teeth when I watched your earlier interviews but we all grow and you continue to grow... Now on the question of "victim mentality" I'd suggest you preface your question with something like "even though jews, armenians etc" are never told to forget about their suffering how come that is suggested to black people... remember our people here were not even considered and treated like human beings and then later they were "promoted" to 3/5 of a human
This is a very informative video GH had a difficult time getting around, but she has arrived; she ĥas reached home. She seems to be thankful and appreciative to God and to the people who helped her. She is now settled apart from the court issue that is still pending. All the best with that too GH. God bless you, continue to enjoy life.
Yes !!!!! DMV IN THE HOUSE !!!! VERY INSPIRATIONAL . YOU IGNITED MY FLAME !! TO PUSH FORWARD
Am ugandan but am happy for you. And welcome to my mother Africa
God bless this young lady ❤
Success is not for everyone, do you see her mindset? She never gave up looking at what she's been through. Positive thinking, David encouraged himself in the Lord, Ghana is hard but if you find the loop holes and the opportunities no one sees, it can be so easy and smooth, you could be so successful, the Chinese, Lebanese and indians are millionaires here, they Chinese have a saying there are gold in the gutters in Ghana
Very inspiring story, love this sister's resilience, very unfortunate that some people are not welcoming and will sabotage a melanated individual bringing business and employment. I would Katanka instead of shipping a car though.
Her honesty is remarkable. I really admire your spirit of pushing harder.
Shalom.
What honesty the girl is a LIAR !!
Another great interview! Diasporans have made many improvements and investments in Ghana, but they could do even more if some small-minded people would stop opposing them.
Oh God! This lady has gone through alot yet very optimistic! I love that spirit because thats my spirit...we never give up...tough gong
She is beautiful,your energy shines through…..I’m from VA so you know I gotta follow.
Continental Ghanaians are looking DUSTY, Keep pushing My Lady ❤❤❤
Marissa we are behind you!
This was an amazing interview. Marissa you answered just about every question I've ever had about Ghana. I. So sorry you snd your family had to go through the trials & tribulations to get established in Ghana. I pray you and your business continue to be successful. You are an amazing young woman, beautiful, articulate, intelligent. I have always wanted to visit Ghana now i know i nees to visit Ghana. Thank you for this interview 🙏🏾..one of the best for tge content, the depth and the value. ❤🙏🏾💯👍🏿
Go Marissa! Fellow Mustang and Bison here.
Thanks for sharing, determination will get you everywhere. God rewards your efforts.
Corruption in Ghana is so disgusting
The same corruption that will help you succeed can bring you down fast.
Am so proud of her ❤️
❤ Awesome interview! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That disfuctiomal confusion at the port will stop most business people from investigating in Ghana. These are some of the major problem with relocation to Africa. This doesn't happen in countries, look have rapid development. Ghana you have the space fix the system quickly.listen to what these brave business people are saying.
$50 will go a long way in getting things done at any port.
This interview & her story was just beautiful just like herself.
Thank you for a great interview.
Marissa, looks so much like Whitney Houston. She is too beautiful; inside and out..❤❤❤
She is black and beauty, welcome back home my sister.🙏🇬🇭
All women are beautiful including Europeans and asians
@@gibson2675😂😂😂😂 did any one call European and Asian women here. Get your kkk ass out of here. So Africans are not allowed to love themselves. You are sick and pathetic
@@gibson2675 Those women.have their OWN to tell them whatever, what's need for PC. this channe isl in Ghana do YOU see who is being interviewed or usually who are interviewed ?
Pls we are appreciating our own my dear.🇬🇭🇬🇭
Great interview. Thanks for sharing.
Rich content. Thank you for the sharing
a wonderful interview and great interviewee.
In Jamaica we call this mindset "BAD MIND", this seems to be a common trait amongst us as black people
Please explain what is a BAD MIND?
@@ursilaminor6447 "negative thoughts and feelings of envy and resentment towards another person , especially after they have revealed good fortune ".
Oh yeah….. but say it too much most of them get vexxed. It’s in the blood. Can’t get out. Too common of a occurrence
That's the technic to control. Divide and rule. They have to divide us in other to control us.
Great interview and insight.❤ from jamaica 🇯🇲.
Beautiful and amazing interview. I loved it! 🥰 Thank you for sharing.
Your best interview. We deserve to be here❤
This lady is quite brilliant! Her understanding about life is wonderful to listen to. I truly appreciate her attitude and honesty.
This is so amazing conversation. So much wisdom in such a short time ❤🎉
Excellent interview ❤
When will some one in GOVERNMENT,will this nonsense with Landlord s in the country from family,harbour,Landlord,etc are making things difficult to help build motherland.
She is speaking facts we are coming to share our cultures
Such an honest, loving , inclusive conversation. Inspiring. A group of us are planning to come to visit in Oct 2024.
This was an emotional and positive interview. I love you both.❤
Insightful, I think Ghanaian government should standardize how things are done at the port and the staffs should exhibit professionalism by avoiding extortion of money from people. I’m a Ghanaian in the USA, one thing I like about here is let’s say for example you go to the DMV for a vehicle title change; you can read the charges on their website and you pay the exact amount, no staff will ask you to pay something extra for the services or to cut in line.
She was a delight and many would have just gotten back on the plane after dealing with the port fiasco. My question is has the port process improved or streamlined? What she went through with her items was very stressful indeed.
Read recently that the new finance minister has decided to go over there and shakeup the ports. The government of Ghana is trying to digitalize all the operations and payments and that should significantly improve the ports. If you intend to ship to Ghana I’ve heard the best way is to use door to door service and save yourself the headaches.
@@dadoboye1536 Oh that's great news, anything to minimize the stress. To be at the port all day is ridiculous.
Spectacular interview. Grateful to YT for the suggestion. Fellow Howard University Alum SOC and plan to visit Accra this year. Thank you both.
