The Ghana Paradox Podcast - Ghana and Nigeria, Friends, Foes or Just Frenemies

In this episode, Paa Kwesi Botchey, Charlene Bello and Derrick Owusu Amoako are discussing the latest happenings in Ghana.

Last week, armed men stormed the Nigerian High Commissioner’ residence in Accra with bulldozers to demolish a block of apartments in the diplomatic building on Friday night. The building which was still undergoing construction was being built to house staff and visiting diplomats to the Nigeria High Commission in Ghana. Eyewitness said the armed men threatened to shoot staff of the Nigerian embassy who were present at the scene if they interfere in their operations.The latest attack is, however, not the first time that the residency of the Nigerian embassy in Ghana has been threatened by alleged intimidation from Ghana.

In this episode, we explore the curious relationship between the two countries, some of the history,the hostility between Ghana and Nigeria, the actual case and what should be done to improve and see both nations prospering and become the real giants of West Africa, if not the entire Continent.
