WATCH VIDEO– How Ghanaians Were Deported From Nigeria In 1983 Which Brought The Name ‘GHANA MUST GO’

Former Nigerian President, Shehu Shagari in 1983 issued an executive order which meant that all immigrants without proper immigration documents should leave Nigeria.

Most of the immigrants were from Ghana and other West African nations with about 1 million Ghanaian men, women, and children affected.

This also brought the name, ‘GHANA MUST GO’.
