Shame on you! You know why you are a coward..... Its simple ..... You expect everyone to keep quiet while you maltreat them...
You'll be surprised to see him get another job... grin grin grin

We know your type
it is not about keeping quiet

The man went on a senseless rant that has placed him in a difficult situation
I just pray he doesnt end up in prison because the charges are quite serious.

It may be innocent but he did something similar to what cause the genocide in Rwanda

Don't be fooled by the corrupted history passed over to you! These same Ghanaians started this deportation thing first in the late 1970s by Dr. Busia a well known tribal bigot who incited the Ghanaian people against Nigerians and supervised the capture of Nigerian properties in Ghana. Ghanaians are such a hate-filled begins. When they see Nigerians succeeding the get sad. The only way to make a Ghanaian sad is to be successful as a Nigerian. Its so pathetic when we have such people in this part of the world. I strongly condemn those Nigerians who are involved in criminal activities and I advice them to turn a new leaf.
Alien compliance was not a deportation

Ghana brought in all those workers
Give them free housing, trained them and offer them work.

They werent economically viable to Ghana again so they had to be sent back to their home country.

I read your comments with so much disgust! What is special about useless Ghana? Is it not the same country in which Nigerians are attacked for being successful and killed?
The fact remains Ghana will always be lesser a country to Nigeria! Badly behaved bunch of fools!! I totally agree with what the Professor has said, I only pity Nigerians for we suffer for our unpatriotism. The Professor should return and be given automatic employment here, these are the people we need in this country, people who can turn things around, people who can talk sense with courage irrespective of whose horse is gored. People with credibility!

But your country has also been the underdog when compared to Ghana

The Ghanaian media is filled with pathetic souls who are doing the dirty jobs of the Ghanaian crooks. Their agenda is simple.

1. Blackmail Nigerians using the media and takeover their properties in Ghana..

#EndGame
so the media shouldnt report a crime because a Nigerian was the one that committed it ?

sometimes when you guys talk do you listen to yourself at all.

No country will tolerate any group of foreigners from any demographic to commit 13 heinous crimes all in the spate of a week.

That demographics will be profile because they more prone to crimes.

Million's can condemn you act but One person thanks God for using you to save millions and God will surely bless you and give you protection where you need to be protect as you lose your partial job to save others you will never go without blessing.

The poster post what he likes. the man call on Nigeria media at Nigeria to start broadcasting about crime committed in Nigeria by Ghanaian’s living in Nigeria the way Ghana castigate Nigeria even when the offender is not Nigeria.
He made the comment based that Nigeria high profiles in Ghana has meets with Ghana authority for identification of the said criminals and kidnappers but the Ghana police fail to prove the suspect ID. They now beg to meet the suspect face to face yet the authority decline.
then even the Ambassador get angry that you don't want Nigerian in Ghana to see the people to believe that they are Nigerians yet the Ghana media was busy broadcasting all manners of evil comment sighting xenophobia against Nigeria and you think people will be silent.
Yes the professor is a hero because among all high profile Nigeria in Ghana he and Ambassador and Eze-Igbo are the only people that speak up, while the people that commit the kidnapping are from warri and one Calabar men.
But the Ghana media refuse to mention the 11 Ghanaian's that commit the crime with just only 4 non identify Nigeria and only one confirmed man from Calabar.
The way Ghana media take the issue if not for intervention of this man, xenophobia have already started in Kumasi against Nigeria. but because this man call on Nigerian media AIT, NTA and others to raise up and start broadcasting against Ghana that's reason xenophobia that have started in Kumasi die down.
There’s no time he call on Nigerian community in Ghana to raise up against Ghanaian's. The poster just post what suits him to condemn Nigerian more but forget that people lives’ in Ghana and watch the whole things life.
The media can release filted news only in Nigerian but not things that didn’t happen in Nigeria. I first posted the original how it happens yesterday but Nairaland never post in at front page.
do you know who a criminal is and who an accomplice is ?


the Ghanaians who were arrested were all accomplices and they will equally face to laws for aiding and abetting a crime

This rant of yours is stupid
How do you go to the British police to ask them to allow you to go and confirm if the people they arrested are nigerians or not?
The police already have their mandate and they have their systems of identifying the identity of any national.

If they are serious, they should go and meet the lawyers o those criminals

Calling on Nigerians to raise up against Ghanaian is the reason why hes in trouble
a call to arms is a crime according to the laws of Ghana.

what he did is the same thing that brought about the genocide in Rwanda

Sacked ‘inciting’ Nigerian Professor Nwagbara claims video was doctored

Professor, Augustine Uzoma Nwagbara


Embattled visiting Nigerian Professor, Augustine Uzoma Nwagbara who has been sacked by the University of Education, Winneba(UEW) says the videotape that has led to his dismissal was doctored.

According to him, he did not utter some of the things attributed to him on the video which are considered to be disparaging to Ghana.

The University of Education on Wednesday, June 19, 2019, terminated the contract of the visiting Nigerian professor who was seen in a video inciting Nigerians against Ghana.

The decision to terminate the contract was taken after a Disciplinary Committee of the university conducted a probe into the content of the video.

Content of the video has been widely condemned by Ghanaians over fears it could further polarise the recent tensed relationship between locals and Nigerians residing in the country.

The Public Relations Officer of the University of Education, Ernest Azutiga, told Host Kwaku Owusu Adjei on Anopa Kasapa on Kasapa FM that the remorseful Prof. Nwagbara denied many of the content on the tape when he appeared before the Disciplinary Committee.




“On the issue of Nigerian universities being 80% better than Ghana’s he said he never said that. On the issue of revenue that the University of Ghana accrues as a result of Nigerian students schooling there, he said he never uttered such claims and that he has no statistics to back that, also the fact that UEW begged him to stay in Ghana he claims he never said that. He stressed that the video was doctored and doesn’t fully reflect what he said."

“Prof. Nwagbara when he appeared before the committee regretted the content of the video and apologized for the disgrace caused the reputable university even though he insisted the video was doctored. He was shocked the video came out because he didn’t see anyone recording the meeting,” Mr. Azutiga added.

Mr. Azutiga noted that his own investigations have established that Prof. Nwagbara is a fine lecturer, only that he got carried away by nationalism during his meeting with his compatriots hence the kind of utterances he made.

I have to agree with you. Most of the problems nigerians are facing in Ghana today are because of Igbos. I don’t know how they were created, but they are something else. They want to drag everything with you. You can come into a country and want to challenge the local people. It’s impossible. When you hear people say they the ones building Ghana, they are likely to be igbos.

Yorubas have lived in Ghana for more than 100 years and we have never had issues with them. But the igbos who came recently are always always looking for trouble with Ghanaians. Fuckeduppedness
