A Nigerian national, Godwin Anokye, recounted his experience of being in an accident with a pragya during his trip from Akropong to Accra for a press conference. He spoke on Adom FM's Dwaso Nsem, explaining that he had been invited to testify about receiving assistance after being evacuated from South Africa. Anokye believed the invitation meant he would receive financial aid to start a business as previously promised.
However, upon arrival in Accra, he learned the event was a press conference for returnees to confirm receiving the government's support package. The press conference took place amid controversy over the evacuation costs, with rumors circulating on social media that not all returnees had received the promised aid. Anokye confirmed he received GH¢5,000 upon arrival and an additional GH¢500 for transportation, which was shared with other returnees.
He expressed gratitude to the government for evacuating Ghanaians from South Africa and distributed food items like rice, cooking oil, clothing, and soap among those present.
