Travel history is not a principal refusal reason that stands alone, its always intertwined with a more potential refusal reasons. Majority of applicants scoring approvals applied with an untampered passport and never stepped foot outside their country. Tackle the home tie refusal reasons properly and the Travel history go away once your application seems convincing to the VO. Even if you travel to Ghana, the VO won't see it as a Travel history because these Canada VOs mostly recognize travels to countries whose visas are competitive as history BUT travel to Ghana would also be a buildup to getting travel history
Try to properly relate your reasons for studying in Canada and let your hometie reflect convincingly to the VO if possible draw a family tree based on family, business, property, heritance etc
If you've not request for your gcms notes, do well to since you is not in haste to reapply
