For months, rumours had spread online that Young Don had been deported amid the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. His absence from social media fuelled the speculation, with many believing he had been ousted from the country.

Twene Jonas, a well-known social media commentator and Young Don’s mentor, also addressed the situation. He could not verify the claims but warned against anyone blindly copying his controversial style.

Jonas stated that while his outspoken approach pushes boundaries, he has legal safeguards to protect himself from serious consequences.

Young Don had built his online presence by mimicking Jonas’s strategy, openly criticising political leaders and social issues in Ghana. While this gained him attention, it also led to backlash from Ghanaians both abroad and at home, and the deportation rumours pleased those who dislike him.

However, Young Don has now shut down the deportation rumours. In his latest video, while he displayed the US passport, he also showed the identification page with his photo to confirm its authenticity. He used the moment to tease those who had wished for his deportation, making it clear that he was now a citizen and was not going anywhere.
