Ghanaian songstress Belinda Ekua Amoah, known as Mzbel, has shared her stance on not traveling abroad for childbirth to secure a foreign passport.
She asserted that being born and raised in Ghana, she doesn’t see the wisdom in seeking a foreign passport through childbirth overseas, despite the potential benefits.
Mzbel admitted feeling embarrassed by the idea, which has become common among celebrities who take pride in providing such options for their children.
Speaking on Wontumi TV, she stated that choosing to give birth abroad would imply she’s encouraging her children to look for better opportunities elsewhere, which is not her intention at this time.
“People were asking why I did not give birth abroad, but I feel shy to do so. Having Ghanaian blood, why would I stay abroad to give birth just for some opportunities?
“I won’t do it because I don’t want my children to believe one must travel abroad to succeed. It’s a common practice, but I’m embarrassed by it,” she clarified.
This discussion follows inquiries from some netizens about why Mzbel chose to give birth in the country, unlike some celebrities who opt for going abroad.
