Ghana web

Please reload more as I like reading it.


NB: all those commenters especially the first are not Ghanaians but Nigerians.

Fact.

Throwback:
For those miserable people who are known to always blame others for their self destruction and internationally bastardized image, I wonder if it was an Afonja that told the Thailand drug enforcement agency about the Igbos in this popular YouTube video?

I call on the below ostriches to come bury their shameless heads in the ground.

We know who pioneered drug dealing in Africa. Even one of your first class obas was caught with drugs in a UK airport years ago but that's not even an issue.

The issue is your hypocrisy and tribalism that you people have now taken international. See this yoruba drug dealer (from 8 mins) telling the same police man that Igbos are bad people in Thailand. Trying to save himself with tribalism Despicable coward. It's obvious that every yoruba criminal claims Igbos are worse than them. You never see criminals from other tribes do this.

Politics you people introduce tribalism, office tribalism, even crime you have introduced tribalism. Smh

Years ago my colleague's brother who was studying for his Masters in Malaysia was arrested in the street and accused of being a criminal. He showed them his ID card but they ignored and took him to the police station. They contacted his family in Nigeria and said they will charge him to court (innocent or not) unless they "settle". Ask me....Who was the person that was doing the negotiations on behalf of the Malaysian police? A Nigerian with a yoruba name...So don't be surprised that they are now taking this behaviour to Ghanaian websites. It's nothing new.

Six persons have been arrested following a bloody clash between Ghanaian and Nigerian traders in Accra.

Three persons, according to the police, were injured during the Monday morning fight at Kwame Nkrumah Circle.

The fight follows the closure of shops belonging to some Nigerian traders.

Earlier report suggested that the aggrieved Nigerian traders attacked their Ghanaian counterparts with guns and cutlasses.

ACP Abraham Acquaye, the Nima Police Divisional Commander, confirmed the arrest and injuries to DGN Online.

There has been tension between Ghanaian and Nigerian traders in recent time.

Shops belonging to Nigerian traders in Kumasi were shut down this year allegedly by the Ghana Union of Traders Association (GUTA).

Ghanaian traders feel foreigners, particularly Nigerians, Chinese and Lebanese have taken over their retail business.

Vice President of All Chairmen Association, a Ghanaian Traders’ group, Kojo Dankwa, told journalists at Circle, that Nigerians have succeeded in taking over business from Ghanaians through unfair trade practices.

He said Nigerian traders in Ghana were recruiting their relatives from Nigeria and placing them at vantage points to gain hold of the market over their Ghanaian counterparts.

A Ghanaian trader, Kwabena Adjei, in an interview with DGN Online could not understand why Pakistanis were even into retail deal in Ghana.

I'm not surprised.

I've once been in a plane flying from Abuja to lagos, this yoruba guy beside me was with sitting beside a German in the plane, while I sat close to the aisle on the same row.
I think the German was talking about travelling down Igboland to do a certain investment, the yoruba guy kept telling the guy how the East is eroded and cannot be business friendly, how the place is brimming with kidnappers and thieves, how nobody is lives there and why he invest in yorubaland only.

The German guy show him pictures of his sister who is married to an Igbo man in Enugu and their kids and wondered how his sister must have survived in the East for 15 years without getting kidnapped. This happened in 2014.

It's a pity really.

You can choose to write a lot of crude comment against the naturally adorned Yorubas but that dosen’t stop the fact that the Igbos are famous for being shady minded and they are known international drug pusher second to Mexico.

The north contributes to the Nigerian terrorism index around the globe while the Igbos are the arrowhead for shady deals and drug deals across continents.

You can choose to deny from now till eternity but it dosen’t stop the self evident truth about the criminal mindset of you folks.

Wake up and smell the coffee, every country have learnt to profile the Igbos separately from the rest of the Nigerian tribes. We all saw on front page when one of you was crying that he was deported from Malaysia/Thailand for being Igbo.

I don't speak against yoruba, but why does it seem that for some yorubas to promote themselves they must slander the Igbos? Why not market yourself without trying to demarket other regions.
It's good you didn't deny that your brothers do this, because it happens EVERYDAY and you even see it sometimes where you live or work.

The yorubas are the pioneer of drug dealing, Queen salawa abeni, kwam1, sunny ade, kollington and many yoruba artists and fuji musicians all hid drugs in their musical instruments when going to perform in London and USA in the 80s and 90s. It's common knowlege

I also wonder why the yoruba guy in that video didn't tell the Thai authorities how yoruba pilgrims are always on the death row list in Saudi prisons for drug related offense.

I guess it's the 'magnify the Ibo crimes and hide our crimes' methodology that will help yoruba become a world power.b

russellino:


Has the hatred reached this level? I watched the video with the Igbo criminal and if you notice the policeman was trying to play a trick on him to call out other tribes but it didn't work. Lugard is a bastard

LegendHero:


If you could access me properly on Nairaland, you will agree with me that I’m not always on an offense against any tribe, I always react when I see someone is trying to demean my tribe.

You posted a narration about a Yoruba guy which I don’t deny, it could be true or false. The guy said it based on his own experience and perspective. Just like you will tell a foreigner never to visit the north coz of the Boko Haram crisis (a northerner living in Kano will see you as a bigot coz to him Kano is different from Borno?.

This thread is about an imaginary Ghanaian profiling Igbos and you and your kinsmen suddenly made it about the Yorubas. You attacked first coz I don’t know why you think the Ghanaian can’t actually say that.

Wake up Bro, the Igbo image is battered around the globe, it’s not only Ghana. There are multiple countries that have already started judging Nigerians by their tribes and recent happenings give credence to that fact.

You can choose to deny all you can, it’s none of my business.

LabDNA:


I also do not insult any tribe, I only try to set records straight so that fallacies and revisionism do not permeate into our consciousness and become reality.

In 2015 immediately after buhari came into power, a yoruba guy was sent back to Nigeria from a US airport by the American immigration even with a valid visa, he even came on TV and newspapers to lament about his ordeal. Do we assume it because the immigration must have read about cybercrimes, rituals and fraud common place in the SW?/

leokid866:

I'm currently forming a movement to stop intermarriage between Yorubas and igbos....their women are fun and slightly more mature than their men....but I will no longer support anything that connects the Yorubas with the igbos on any level....simply because their men are immature fire heads with no vision beyond the length of their d*ck.

1. Which First Class king was arrested for drug pushing and which tribe

https://www.africa-confidential.com/article-preview/id/5342/Not_Alaafin_matter

2. If the guy deported was snitched on fingered by one of you as is very common and as seen in that video then who knows...

LegendHero:


The case of the Igbo guy from Pakistan is totally different from the example you gave above. He said it himself that they ask him what tribe he belongs to before deporting him.

Can you provide the source to show the Yoruba guy you claimed to be deported was profiled based on ethnicity?

To conclude, there are lot of Ghanaians that understand Nigeria politics and terrains and some of them are even on Nairaland. Don’t you think there might be 20% chances that a Ghanian actually said that instead of blaming it on the Yorubas!

bakynes3:

I am surprised by the comments on the front page. Ghanaians know most of the tribes in Nigeria. They know a lot about us. They are the closest country to Nigeria in terms of relationship. Many of them even lived or visit Nigeria from time to time while some have lived here all their lives. So it should not surprise Igbos if Ghanaians know which tribe does business the most in Nigeria and bring his brothers to form a nucleus of traders. The are also well grounded on this forum to know some igbos behave unruly in Lagos,Kano or SA and the fact they call themselves Biafrans.

LegendHero:


Thank you.

That’s exactly what I’m trying to tell the guy. Ghanaians are already part of the Nigeria scene and they know about us to some extent.

LegendHero:


Seems you’re not getting the trend here. It’s a common knowledge that the name Igbo is the Nigerian tribe name that is synonymous to drug in the international scene.

Are some Yorubas into drug, Yes. But what is the percentage relative to the Igbos? For every news that grace the Nigeria media space about drug trafficking, almost 85% are usually related to the Igbos.

Like I said, I’m not here to argue a self evident truth. You can continue to deny all you can, but other countries knows best.

bakynes3:

I have lots of Ghanaian friends when i studied in the UK. Some can speak both Igbo and Yoruba. When i met one of them he asked me are you Yoruba or Igbo, i told him i was Yoruba and he tried striking a conversation with me in Yoruba and he didnt do badly. So its a testament that Ghanaians know us quite well. If this News emanated from maybe Angola or Rwanda or some far away African country, that is when Igbos can start suspecting that Yorubas were behind those Moniker but Ghana they should better.

Use your flat brain.He was being asked questions about Igbos who have been their normal usual customer and why he is different.
Get the gist of the interview and why the guy laughs and confident that he is going to be pardoned unlike their usual customers.

LegendHero:


What should I do with the names mentioned?

Why are you trying so hard to erase the drug emblem on the Igbo image? You can’t erase it by bringing out Yoruba names coz if I start bringing Igbo arrested for drug trafficking, Nairaland website will malfunction from too much posts.

You should rather be an advocate in your local community meeting to sensitize your kinsmen to desist from the culture of drug trafficking so as to save the little image left of the Igbo name in the international space.

Although there are lot of well respected Igbos that are clean, but unfortunately the criminal ones are usually loud mouthed thereby overshadowing the good ones!
