For a young girl who was born at New Fadama and has lived there all her life, this was the ultimate dream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s one thing to just travel abroad, and it\u2019s entirely another to gain admission to study oversees. If the former brings joy, the latter culminates in utopic ecstasy. That was exactly how Zeenatu felt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, though, her journey as Physician Assistant student at the Band\u0131rma Onyedi Eyl\u00fcl University faces uncertainty following the COVID-19 outbreak in Turkey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The transcontinental country recorded its first COVID-19 case on March 15, 2020, leading to a series of measures by the government. Like in Ghana, the Turkish government has imposed a ban on travel and has also moved to restrict gatherings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means all foreigners in the country are currently without a window to return home. But while other countries have already moved to evacuate their citizens from Turkey, Zeenatu and other Ghanaians remain unsure if the Ghanaian government really wants to them back home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cWe are stranded over here,\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;Zeenatu tells Pulse.com.gh.&nbsp;<em>\u201cMost of us are struggling, we\u2019ve been struggling for the past three months,\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;she said, adding that the Ghana consulate in Turkey has created a WhatsApp group for constant updating of stranded Ghanaians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Government\u2019s evacuation plans<\/strong><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ocdn.eu\/pulscms-transforms\/1\/q_Xk9kqTURBXy8yZmUzMjdjNzE0MmM5NTU0YTBhZTViMWFlNzg1OWFlMC5qcGVnkpUCzQMUAMLDlQIAzQL4wsOBoTAB\" alt=\"The Ghana government has made plans to evacuate Ghanaians who are stranded abroad \"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ghana government has made plans to evacuate Ghanaians who are stranded abroad<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier this month when Ghana Foreign Affairs Ministry announced plans to evacuate Ghanaians who want to return home, it brought huge relief to Zeenatu and the thousands of Ghanaians abroad who are desperate to reunite with their families, but have been kept apart due to the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The plan was to airlift \u201cwilling\u201d Ghanaians, quarantine them for a period of 14 days and reintegrate them back into society if they test negative for COVID-19 or isolate them for treatment if they test positive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a really great idea and the government has been effusively praised for its efforts to bring stranded citizens back home. But, in truth, there\u2019s been a lot of sweet talk regarding the processes of the evacuation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cFor several weeks, the Foreign Ministry and its Missions abroad, together with key MDAs such as The Interior and Aviation Ministries, and the Ghana Immigration Service have been working closely to bring back home stranded Ghanaians in several countries,\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;Foreign Affairs Minister Shirley Ayorkor Botchwey said in Parliament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cTo ensure a well-coordinated evacuation exercise, Government decided to undertake the exercise in phases.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But while the Minister was assuring in her delivery, what she didn\u2019t say was how tedious it was going to be for \u201cpoor\u201d Ghanaians to get evacuated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>An expensive evacuation \u2013 affordable only by the rich<\/strong><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ocdn.eu\/pulscms-transforms\/1\/wmdk9kpTURBXy8yZWI2Mjk2ZWM5ZTk0YjMwN2NmNGEyNWRjZGQ1YmNkNC5wbmeSlQLNAxQAwsOVAgDNAvjCw4GhMAE\" alt=\"Minister of Foreign Affairs, Shirley Ayorkor Botchwey\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Minister of Foreign Affairs, Shirley Ayorkor Botchwey<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With all that has been said, you only need to see the letters from the various Ghanaian Embassies to conclude that this whole evacuation is tailor-made for only the rich.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For persons who are stranded in foreign countries, asking them to buy their own ticket may perhaps be acceptable. But requesting of them to pay GHc600 each night for their 14-day quarantine is not exactly friendly and does not paint the picture of a government that is interested in evacuating \u201cpoor\u201d Ghanaians abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To give some perspective, the Embassies are asking stranded Ghanaians to cover their travel and mandatory quarantine. As if that is not enough, government has selected three luxurious hotels in Accra \u2013 Airport View, Alisa and Marriot \u2013 as the only places they can be quarantined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are hotels that don\u2019t come cheap. Airport View charges GHc500 per night, which means any stranded Ghanaian who is quarantined there will spend at least GHc7,000 for the 14-day quarantine period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alisa and Marriot are also charging GHc600 per night, translating into GHc8,400 for anyone who is quarantined for the 14 days period. Even worse, the Foreign Affairs Ministry says the quarantine period could be extended to 21 days depending of individual cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For persons like Zeenatu, paying for even the flight ticket is a headache. According to her, she has been asked to pay 750 euros (almost GHc5,000) for the flight ticket alone, in order to be able return to Ghana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How many stranded Ghanaians can afford these amounts? Surely, only the rich can, and it is they alone who would eventually be evacuated if the government proves to be intransigent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cCan you imagine us being asked to pay all these monies when we are already stranded? We are suffering and we want to come home, but most of us can\u2019t afford these amounts,\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;Zeenatu laments, letting out a silent hum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cA lot of students are here [stranded]. Everyone is complaining; where are we going to get the money from?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cIf we had this kind of money, would we call ourselves \u201cstranded\u201d? Anybody that has this kind of money would prefer to stay abroad and relax till the borders open.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Stranded, dejected and without hope<\/strong><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ocdn.eu\/pulscms-transforms\/1\/mAjk9kpTURBXy83ZTA0ZDM1YjJmNGUwYjBlOWJkZjIyZGEwZjJjYTAwMi5qcGeSlQLNAxQAwsOVAgDNAvjCw4GhMAE\" alt=\"Unable to pay for the high evacuation expenses, most stranded Ghanaians are wallowing in despair \"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unable to pay for the high evacuation expenses, most stranded Ghanaians are wallowing in despair<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While most stranded Ghanaians undoubtedly want to return home, their pockets won\u2019t allow it. Zeenatu says the feeling among those in Turkey is that is dejection and despair, while others are consoling themselves with tears and hope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ghana government has already evacuated hundreds of Ghanaians. However, those in Turkey are in a more difficult situation because the country is not in the European Union (EU).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To this end, they will need to travel by bus to Germany before boarding a plane to Ghana, says Zeenatu.&nbsp;<em>\u201cWe have been stuck here for some time and it seems like we are invisible. I read a publication on the countries that our government is planning to evacuate Ghanaians from, but Turkey was not part of them.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cPeople have been crying. I\u2019ve personally been crying for days now, I\u2019ve totally lost hope but I feel like God is with me. I hope that someone will be able to hear my story and for the President to quickly address our plight.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zeenatu believes, and rightly so, that the government can, and must, do better if it really wants to evacuate all stranded Ghanaians. Hers, and that of many stranded Ghanaians, is not about them not wanting or \u201cwilling\u201d, as the government would put it, to return home. Rather, it borders on an expensive evacuation plan \u2013 one that many simply cannot afford.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThey [government] are making it look so nice on TV that they are evacuating us, but the amount of money they are demanding makes it look more like extortion,\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;the student added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A reasonable solution<\/strong><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ocdn.eu\/pulscms-transforms\/1\/Ce1k9kpTURBXy80MTM0YTUyYTUzOTAxZmU2OGNhNjNiNmNhOTdhNmFlNi5qcGeSlQLNAxQAwsOVAgDNAvjCw4GhMAE\" alt=\"President Nana Akufo-Addo\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>President Nana Akufo-Addo<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Government definitely means well, per its plans to evacuate stranded Ghanaians. However, the evacuation process has not been the best. Not only is it expensive, giving passengers up to Tuesday, June 16, as a deadline to fulfil their financial obligations, or remain stranded wherever they are, is a bit inconsiderate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of these stranded Ghanaians are ready to pay their way back home, so why not make it affordable to them? Why not suspend the idea of lodging them in two-star and four-star hotels which cost GHc500 and GHc600 per night? And why not quarantine them in hotels that charge less, ones that they can afford?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If government really wants to send the cavalry to bring back stranded Ghanaians, it should be considering the aforementioned suggestions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Otherwise, only the rich will be able to afford this \u201cexpensive\u201d evacuation.&nbsp;<em>\u201cI want to go back home,\u201d&nbsp;<\/em>Zeenatu appeals.&nbsp;<em>\u201cMy government can make it possible, they must make it possible.
