The article doesn't really seem to back that up. Lots of the people pushing that theory are definitely alt-right types, but when the article doesn't present any facts to contradict them it doesn't make it seem like they're actually wrong. For some "conspiracy theories" it can be impossible to prove someone wrong, but there should be some pretty straightforward statistics to help figure out if this is bogus or not. FWIW it seems to be a commonly held belief by South Africans. The ones I know told me that in SA they won't stop at a red stoplight ("robot") in certain areas. The risk of getting carjacked and murdered is higher (or perceived to be higher) than the risk of getting in a deadly car crash when running a red light.

Sometimes they're not: https://www.thelocal.se/20180508/why-sweden-doesnt-keep-stat...

Thanks for that, quite an interesting read.

That article is heavy on how "the other" is talking about this, but light on facts about the situation on the ground.

Here is an article about the farm attacks https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/africa/south-africa...

Even supposing that it's not happening in South Africa (ANC leaders are just singing about doing it [1]), land appropriation very much happened in neighboring Zimbabwe: "By 2013, every white-owned farm in Zimbabwe had been either expropriated or confirmed for future redistribution." [2]

To bring us back to OP's question, property rights in Ghana are listed here [3] as "weak".
