Nigeria’s government is taking swift diplomatic action following anti-Nigerian protests in parts of Ghana. The protests, triggered by claims of criminal activities involving some Nigerians, have sparked fear among the large Nigerian community there.

Videos circulating online show demonstrators calling for the expulsion of Nigerian nationals. In response, Nigeria’s Minister of State for Foreign Affairs has traveled to Accra for high-level talks with Ghanaian authorities.

Officials from both countries emphasized the importance of peaceful coexistence and regional solidarity.

The Nigerian government says it remains committed to protecting its citizens abroad while working closely with Ghana to ease tensions and strengthen bilateral ties.
