In the recent past, reports have disclosed that Africans in Guangzhou city of China were being ejected from their apartments by their landlords, being tested for coronavirus several times without being given results and being shunned and discriminated against in public

Such complains have flooded social media and local media

KDRTV has seen a statement on Saturday by the Ghanian`s minister of foreign affairs Shirley Ayorkor Botchwey which summoned the Chinese ambassador to address their displeasure and demand action to address the “inhumane treatment”

“I regret and highly condemn this…ill-treament and racial discrimination,” the minister said.

The Ghanian minister said that he wrote the letter to “register my disappointment and call for his government to immediately address the situation and bring their officials to order.”

However, there was no immediate response from the Chinese embassy in Ghan to a request for comment over the mistreatment of Africans in China

On the other note, KDRTV  understands that the Chinese embassy in Zimbabwe had denounced the accusations of deliberately focusing on the African origins as well as the asserted reports of discrimination and harassment in the city

“It is harmful to sensationalize isolated incidents,” the statement said. “China treats all individuals in the country, Chinese and foreign alike, as equals.”
