JUST IN: FG reacts to demolition of High commission in Ghana, reveals next move

The Nigeria Government has reacted to the demolition of a building belonging to the Nigerian High Commission in Ghana.

Foreign affairs minister, Geoffrey Onyeama, condemned the development describing it as ‘criminal and Outrageous’. He also revealed that the Nigerian government will investigate the situation. Onyeama tweeted;

“We are engaging the Ghanaian Government and demand urgent action to find the perpetrators and provide adequate protection for Nigerians and their property in Ghana.”

“We strongly condemn two outrageous criminal attacks in Accra, #Ghana, on a residential building in our diplomatic premises by unknown persons in which a bulldozer was used to demolish the building.”

On Friday, a yet-to-be-identified Ghanaian businessman stormed the premises of the commission with armed men and bulldozers claiming that a building newly constructed by the commission was on his land.

He claimed that the land belonged to him before ordering his men to demolish the building. Commission officials were threatened not to interfere with the exercise by the fierce-looking men.

  1. Demolition Nigerian High commision building in Ghana not a surpriing .Ghana Government and its citizens always undrmined Nigeria and not a friend to Nigerians due to Ghana must go in the early 80s and History showed it was Ghana who started it in the 60s and quiet agreed two wrong never make a right .Though Ghanaians has no political ,Economic muscles to engage Nigeria in any way but her body language,and role in international position against Nigerians speaks volume . Many Ghanaian used Nigerians passport in diaspora to commits various criminal activities then later found out they waere not a nigerian .Ghana has never be a friend to Nigerians despite enormous financial assistance over the years. So its time Nigerians look inword than outwards . A good example the propose Africa free trade market,,and Nigerians should be very careful that many smaller African countries are ready to challenge Nigeria in many fronts and the time long due to look inwards than outwards because Ghanaian will continually looks ways
