Appiah Stephen left Ghana to look for work in Europe after a mining company took over some of his farmland. The horrors of exploitation, kidnappings, detention and a dangerous sea crossing from Libya prevented him from reaching Europe. He was supported to return home but says he's now right now back where he started. We spoke to Appiah in Ghana as part of our series on X. An explanation of how we produced this interview can be found at the end.
Raphel Ahenu (BTS): Welcome. Could you start by telling us about yourself?
Appiah Stephen: My name is Appiah. I’m 39 and live with my wife and child.
