THE PAN AFRICAN VILLAGE PROJECT
The African Diaspora economy is thriving and could become a great asset in Ghana if properly cultivated and utilized. In published reports, the African Diaspora consumer market exceeded 1 Trillion Dollars in 2013 and the African Diaspora net income continues to exceed 1 Trillion Dollars annually, which is larger than the entire country of Spain. African Diasporas are wealthier than most countries and would rank in the top 50 of the 196 reporting countries.
Pan African Village seeks to bring these economic resources to Ghana. As we watch investors from many other countries bring their business ideas and economic resources to Ghana, we know that ultimately their success will only profit themselves and that they will take their earnings back to the country of their origin. Let us build an African Diaspora community dedicated to the well-being of Africa. Not only is this our opportunity to work together, but it is also our responsibility to come together.
The time is now for all Africans to unite. We are all Africans and have a personal responsibility to Africa, regardless of where we were born. Our common bond is that all of us have African ancestors.
Inspired by the President’s proclamation of 2019 as THE YEAR OF RETURN and in preparation for this year’s celebration of PANAFEST and EMANCIPATION DAY, Okatakyi Dr. Amenfi VII, Omanhen of Asebu Traditional Area in the Central Region of Ghana is offering land to our brothers and sisters from the diaspora.
The Chiefs of Asebu Traditional Area and Elders have all agreed to offer specified land to Africans from the diaspora. This very generous demonstration of love and compassion is born in the spirit of Brotherhood and Unity. Africans from the diaspora are invited to return to Africa and dwell happily and peacefully in the Asebu Traditional Area. Africans from the diaspora are expected to develop their land in a timely manner and become valued and respected members of the Asebu community.
