American rapper Meek Mill has expressed interest in becoming a Ghanaian citizen.
The rapper in a tweet announced his desire to acquire a Ghanaian citizenship because of the oppressiveness towards Black people in America.
“I wanna get citizenship in Ghana!!!! America made to tear black men down if you don’t follow orders!” he tweeted in an X post on March 4, 2024.

In December 2022, Meek Mill performed at Afro Nation and has since emphasised his interest and love for Ghana. This was his first-ever visit to Ghana.
That same year, he visited the Jubilee House where he met and held a meeting with President Akufo-Addo.
The American rapper later filmed portions of a music video at the seat of government which generated a public outcry from Ghanaians who questioned why the seat of the government should be denigrated as such.
Meek Mill subsequently apologised to Ghanaians for his actions. He has since not shied away from showing his love for Ghana.
Earlier this year, the American rapper indicated his wish to collaborate with some Ghanaian artists.
Meek Mill has recently been on a social media rant following allegations that he was named in a suit filed by a former employee of rapper and producer Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.
According to multiple reports, the suit filed by Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones placed Meek Mill on a list of redacted names involved in gay sex escapades with Diddy.
But in a series of X posts, Meek Mill has denied the allegations while alluding to a plot to undermine his hard work as a black American.
