In August Ghana will become the latest country to ban the import of skin bleaching creams.
Very few African countries have banned the products which are popular despite the damage they can cause.
In this episode, What’s Up Africa’s Ikenna Azuike reports from the Ghanaian community in Bijlmer in the Netherlands where the news was greeted by cheering crowds.
Satire series What’s Up Africa is a BBC and RNW Media co-production.
It’s broadcast on Wednesdays and Fridays on Focus on Africa on BBC World News & partner stations across Africa from 1730gmt.
