The young lady, who has been in Canada for ten years, opened up about the struggles she has faced in her journey to becoming a citizen.
At one point in time, she had to seek asylum and even apply for permanent residency on humanitarian and compassionate grounds.
Things took a turn for the worse when she faced the risk of being deported.
Despite all this, she weathered the storm and is a Canadian citizen today.
"So today, Yaa Serwaa, I am a Canadian citizen. If I look at what I have been through here in Canada, it is not easy. Those in Canada will understand. I once tried seeking refuge, but it did not work."
"I chose to go on humanitarian grounds, and that also failed. What was even more painful was that I faced deportation at one point. However, in all of this, God, who is capable of doing all things, who will not fail you in times of need, because of Him, I am also a citizen."
She began to cry as she advised persons who are desirous of obtaining citizenship not to give up on their quest to legalise their stay, but rather to persist with purpose and determination.
"Brethren, please do not be discouraged. Good times are ahead of you. Put your trust in God and be purposeful in life, and rest assured that good times will come. Today, I feel like crying when I reflect on my past"
