The Ghanaian Embassy in Saudi Arabia has warned all Ghanaians staying there illegally to take advantage of an amnesty offered by the Arabian Kingdom to return home or be left to their fate after the 90-day window closes.
The Kingdom announced the amnesty in March 2017. The window will be closed on 25 June 2017.
In a statement, the Ghana embassy in Saudi Arabia said: “Since the beginning of the General Amnesty two months ago, the Ghana Embassy in Riyadh and the Ghana Consulate in Jeddah have processed more than five hundred emergency travel documents (Travelers Certificates) for Ghanaians who have violated their residency and work permits, enabling them to take advantage of the General Amnesty to leave the Kingdom.”
The embassy said it is still processing “these emergency travel documents” for Ghanaians who wish to leave at a highly subsidised cost of SR50 (Saudi Riyals) instead of SR200.
The embassy has, therefore, warned that Ghanaian immigrants who fail to return home within the window will be left to their fate.
“Any Ghanaian illegal resident who fails to take advantage of this General Amnesty programme should be ready to face any penalty or consequences thereof as a result of their actions or inactions.
“Both the Embassy and the Consulate should not be blamed for any unforeseen occurrences after the expiration of the General Amnesty program given that the Mission does not have any more resources to troubleshoot self-inflicted consular problems,” the statement signed by acting Head of Mission at the Embassy, Marcel Domayele said.

All public and private corrupt individuals in the country should bow in shame.Ghanaian citizens suffering in Saudi is a direct repercurssion of their unscrupulous actions. I urge the president to purge himself and fight this canker untirelingly.
there is a network here in ghana, who are taking advantage of desperate Ghanaians and sending people to this same evil place, this people eventually sell you into slavery without your knowledge, please dont allow any of your relatives to get involved with these guys, first they will say its Dubai to court your interest, but later they will tell you its Saudi, the stories coming from this place is disheartening, and our own brothers do this to us. watch out. this is Just by the way.

Very unfortunate statement from the Ghana Embassy. What remedy have you put in place for people who can not afford SR50. Does that mean we have to leave them to be killed if it happens so? There are people there who due to certain issues may not have the fee. What do you to them? We are in a country where the state do not care of their citizen. How do you expect the citizens to think of the state?
Please I have a sister there, she wants to come ASAP, How is the process.. Thank you
They "cut human head" like chicken in Saudi Arabia. Please leave!!!
LET THE EMBASSY KNOW AND INFORM THE SAUDI AUTHORITIES TO WARN ITS CITIZENS TO LET THE IMMIGRANTS/GHANAIANS AND OTHER AFRICAN NATIONALS LEAVE THEIR HOMES. SO THOSE WHO ARE KEPT IN PEOPLES HOMES WOULD BE BROUGHT BACH HOME, FOR WE NEED THEM ALIVE.
They people who are suffering now are those who are locked-up in homes with no access to means of accessing this "window".So they could not take advantage of it even if they knew about it. So please lets start with compiling lists of Ghanaians who have entered Saudi Arabia within a period and then those who have left. The variance is actually the ones to pursue. They are indeed suffering.
Is there anything good from that so called place called Holy land apart from chopping Innocent people head and raping babies God punish them all pigs.
Leave this barbarian land asap or else JIHAD.
