Imagine living in Europe, and waking up almost daily to headlines such as “Another Ghanaian Arrested”. That is how being a Nigerian in Ghana feels. Some of us have been saying this for years but with no impact. Stop the anti-Nigerian stereotyping! We keep reinforcing an unfortunate image that Nigerians are criminals. Even where a gang of 4 Ghanaians and 1 Nigerian robs a bank, we are told the Nigerian either “subcontracted” or “recruited” the Ghanaians. Indeed, almost half of West Africans are Nigerians, so Nigerians are bound to have the highest number of both good and bad people in our region, on our continent. #StopCriminalisingNaija

The Professor's plan to tear up Ghana is a clear vindication that Nigerians are criminals. Let us assume what the Prof. is saying is true. Is his strategy the way to go about it to prove otherwise? Using criminality to prove that you are not criminal is just as saying once a criminal always a criminal is very true and legitimate. And the very good Prof. whose degree from University of Nigeria, wants us to believe that his degree is 80% better than that of Ghanaian uniiversities.Tweaaaaaa!!! Do you know what? The Ibos claim to be Ghanaians of Nigeria because they believe they are more intelligent than the other tribes in Nigeria. Clearly, you can see from the video that the Prof. is embittered and antagonistically filled with vices of inferiority complex.

It is made to look as if Nigerians like the criminal activities the kidnapping, robberies, etc, etc they are being perpetrated by some of their country people. If it were to be the case, there will be no courts and no jails for those miscreants in Nigeria. That agenda of trying to destroy the biggest economy in Africa wittingly or unwittingly by some, to achieve that "end" will not work, has no chance of working. Nigeria under the AU anti-corruption champion President Muhammad Buhari is coming out of the cold and is chasing corruption, malfeasance and the structures and strongholds of Nigeria's ascent to it's rightful place, to Hades, just as is happening in Ghana and across the entire continent of Africa.
A Nigerian Professor at the University of Ghana by name Augustine Nwabara is inciting the Nigerian media and community in Ghana to take up strategies that would destroy the image of Ghana to the world. In a video gone viral on social media, the Prof in a meet up with some Nigerians in the country implored the Nigerian media to tear up Ghana in the eyes of the international community through negative reportage. According to the professor, Nigeria already has a bad image mainly because of how they’ve been branded by others especially by Ghana, so it is time to reciprocate that by coming up with innovative ideas and strategies. Citing some strategies for their mission to work effectively, the professor said “We’re highly skilled and highly talented and blessed people but many at time we lack strategy, Nigerians tend to lack strategy. You can have good skills, if you don’t know how to let people know it, it is there; dies, like having a factory full of items in the warehouse. If you don’t advertise it remains in the warehouse”. “They have harassed us a lot, I know that... What I’m saying is we need strategies. I’ll suggest something which the embassy can think about; I know they know which they can do immediately at the Nigerians community. There is bad image for Nigeria; we can take it back through the press. We can reverse it. We have powerful Nigerian media stations, channels broadcast all over the world, there’s active online social media, the plot in Nigeria. Let them come here and run documentaries of the experiences of Nigerians and blast it all over the world. In three days Ghana would respond”. According to the professor who says he was once a media person and has expertise in how it works, whatever agenda the Nigeria media set will work out positively as people believe every news item that comes from the media is the truth although that is not usually the case. Advocating the need to extensively utilise this mode, he called on the Nigerian leaders to take advantage of this strategy as it will be the key to destroy the image of Ghana since Nigerians can’t be the only ones to be branded as bad or evil. “I have been a media person, you cannot be here and suffering. Let the leaders get our media persons come here to cover what has been happening. Go to the student community, go to the business community, go to everywhere; come to the embassy. Go and confront the officials with the information, air it, within one week I can tell you part of worse happening. I’m sorry to say it but this is within us, the present government in Ghana came on the grounds of Nigeria bashing. I’ve listened to things some of their top leaders have said all over the world in major places. We did not take it back, if we take it back they will sit up, so media strategy one”. “Use their own media; but you know something, I’ve been a pressman, there is no absolute truth in the media. The truth is truth as it is presented. Let us use our own media and get back to them. Let us see life cases, let our media with this story say we want to go to their prisons to see Nigerians, of course, they will turn you back, you broadcast it. And by the time you’re through run series of documentaries on Nigerians relations and sir we’ll take history”, he suggested. He further revealed that there has been a long-standing rivalry between Ghana and Nigerian dating back to Kwame Nkrumah’s time, which is known by few indicating that it is about time Nigerians let Ghanaians know they are ahead in everything. “That rivalry has been there because we don’t tell them the truth. They don’t know, historically there is that rivalry. Its sibling rivalry but the truth is that it’s a rivalry between an elder brother and a younger brother. It’s the rivalry all over Africa”. Advising on how to make it work without being obvious, the professor said “Let’s take back our image, let’s take them on step by step in very subtle forms not frontal, not open”.
