In an interview on Wontumi TV, renowned Ghanaian singer Mzbel, born Belinda Ekua Amoah, shared her thoughts on childbirth and citizenship.
She confessed feeling embarrassed by the trend of celebrities giving birth abroad to secure foreign passports for their children.
Mzbel emphasized her pride in her Ghanaian heritage and her desire to raise her children with a similar sense of national pride.
When asked why she chose to give birth in Ghana, Mzbel explained that she wants her children to understand that success is not solely dependent on foreign opportunities.
She believes that by giving birth in Ghana, she is teaching her children to appreciate their roots and seek opportunities within the country.
“As a Ghanaian, I want my children to know that they can achieve their goals here, without feeling like they need to leave the country to succeed,” she said.
Mzbel’s stance is a departure from the common practice among celebrities, who often opt for giving birth abroad to secure foreign citizenship for their children.
By choosing to give birth in Ghana, Mzbel is making a statement about the importance of embracing one’s nationality and seeking opportunities within one’s own country.
