More Ghanaians evacuated from Liberia

Fifty-six more Ghanaians were on Friday evening evacuated from Liberia following the crisis in that country.

The evacuees, who consisted of the fourth batch of evacuations so far were made up of 26 adults and 30 children.

They were airlifted by a military aircraft to the Kotoka International Airport Hanger Two where they were screened by NADMO, Immigration, CEPS, health and security officials.

The refugees ranged between ages six months and 48 years.

In an interview with the Ghana News Agency, Rose Anson, a 23 year old nursing mother from Komenda in the Central Region complained that all her belongings were left behind in Liberia because of the rush to board the aircraft.

Rose, who has been in Liberia since 1998 expressed worry about her husband, who had gone missing as a result of the crisis.

She said her parents are still in Liberia.

Mr Prince Acquaah, a mason who had been evacuated together with his wife, two children and three brothers said he intended to settle in Ghana even if the situation in Liberia was normalised.

He said being a foreigner in Liberia was becoming more and more difficult due to the crisis.
