Yaw Dwarkwaa stated:

“This is really heartwarming. Congrats, Staneherr, you have really got me hyped up. If a Ghanaian can relocate abroad and get citizenship in Canada, then my heart’s desire of doing the same in the US is not impossible. God bless you and your husband as well; see how supportive he has been. Some men have left their wives back in Ghana and are doing whatever they feel like abroad. This is truly nice to see. Ayekoo once again.”
