Charismatic preacher, Nicholas Duncan-Williams, of the Christian Action Faith Ministries (CAFM) says Ghanaians are �cursed with self-hatred�, thus their preference for foreign goods to locally made ones.
The CAFM General Overseer and Presiding Bishop told his congregation on Sunday that: �Until we get excited about our own, we are never going to go anywhere in life, and I think that, that is one of the problems we have as people of this country. We don�t celebrate and we are not excited of our own.�
In a sermon monitored by XYZ News, the Archbishop bewailed that: �We get more excited about foreign goods. Everything that comes from outside is good except what comes from us, and it is a curse of self-hatred.�
�We hate ourselves. We don�t like ourselves. And we need to break it. It�s a national curse,� he emphasised.
According to him, Ghanaians� love for foreign things, has contributed to the stunting of local content.
��We don�t encourage local content,� he complained, adding that: �We don�t encourage one another. We encourage anything foreign. Anything foreign is acceptable. Anything local is bad and that is the way we�ve been wired and unless we are re-wired, we�ll continue to be servants and we�ll continue to be disadvantaged.�
