President Akufo-Addo has described the United States of America’s President’s description of the African continent, Haiti and El Salvador are “shithole countries” as extremely unfortunate.
The US leader made the alleged remark in a Thursday meeting on immigration.
But Ghana’s President in a Facebook post joining the African Union and other bodies to condemn the American President indicated that “Ghana is certainly not a “shithole country”. We will not accept such insults, even from a leader of a friendly country, no matter how powerful”.
Meanwhile, Mr Trump has denied using the language reported. He has been backed by two Republicans who were at the White House meeting, but Democratic Senator Dick Durbin said Mr Trump called African countries “shitholes” several times and used “racist” language.
