Authorities in Ghana have busted a fake
US embassy in the capital Accra run by
a criminal network that for a decade
issued illegally obtained authentic visas,
the US State Department has said.
Until it was shut down, the sham
embassy was housed in a rundown,
pink two-storey building with a
corrugated iron roof and flew an
American flag outside. Inside hung a
portrait of the US president, Barack
Obama.

The crime ring issued fraudulently
obtained but legitimate US visas and
false identification documents,
including birth certificates at a cost of
$6,000 (£4,700) each, the statement
said.

The real US
embassy in Ghana
is a prominent and
heavily fortified
complex in
Cantonments, one
of the capital’s most
expensive
neighbourhoods.

This sounds too fishy to be true. If it is true then it more a covert government operation run by the CIA or their affiliates. It may also be a story created as a pretext to make a major announcement on policy. Oh there are criminals issuing American Visas in Africa therefore blah blah blah. Looks like Donald Trump has taken over some operations even before he assumes office.

Good points @Kusadikika. You see sometimes I tell these guys here about these grand schemes by Uncle Sam and they cannot see through. Only those with chicken size brain would believe an office would exist even for a week issuing US visas and Uncle Sam would not know! Leave alone 10 years! AS you indicated, it is a grand plan for sth else... It's called false flag

"fraudulently obtained, legitimate US visas" This happens all over even here in Nairobi. Just that they are hawked and not stained in an "embassy"
