Ghana Must Go was a popular name given to the migration of illegal migrants from Nigeria following a presidential executive order in 1983.

In 1983, under President Shehu Shagari, Nigerians felt that Ghanaians were bugs in their bed. They asked them to go. The refrain then was “Ghana must go.”

Today, the reverse is the case. The Ghanaian Parliament has reportedly passed a legislation to make the business environment hostile to foreigners. Hence, the Nigerian business community in Ghana lives in a state of fear, uncertainty and insecurity. Part of the problem is an eviction order dated July 27, 2018, which demanded that Nigerians must have a minimum of $1 million as foreign investment capital to do business in Ghana.
