Plus one now.

There is no way in the world you can have only 24000 Nigerians in South Africa. Times ten of that figure is a very conservative estimate.

I don't know where you get the numbers from. As per US population census, legal African born population of US is 1.6 million. Ethopia, Nigeria, Egypt and Ghana are 41% of the 1.6 million. The number of illegal immigrants from Africa is less than 1 million. Do the maths.

I got my info from US population census.

Why would hear Nigeria must go. Both Ghana and Nigeria have learned their lessons from the past.

I was about to say the same thing. There are more nigerians in the uk than us.

^^ Regardless of Statistic, Nigerians- everywhere you go...

Lol,i just finished watching "Lagos,Africa's big apple" on youtube where proud Nigerian commenters are talking of $500b economy,of paradise and great city.

So why would millions of Nigerians be running away from paradise,land of milk and honey and all that if it was such a paradise?

+-80% of nigerians are illigal immigrants, i thnk that 24000 is only professionals/students..

another 411 stats from nigeria lesotho alone hv more than 10 000 nigeria involved in any crime/scam u can think of..

what about IRAN, IRAQ, YEMEN E.T.C

There are over 20000 people in UAE.

Just multiply that estimate by 5 then you have a correct answer.

the only ghanaians that know about ghana must go are the ones that were around that deportation era, those that lived in nigeria.. The common man sees it as a bag.. And that's one of the least things to use to find fault in a nigerian..

I don't agree with the stats tho.. I also believe that nigerians in ghana should be around 5m or more..

This is true. I guess a lot of new Generation Ghanaians are oblivious to Ghana must go. We were never taught or informed much about this issue. First time i learnt about it was actually on Nairaland. However what I kinda find a bit disturbing is how someone can name a bag Ghana must go and till today is still be referred too as such. But hey different strokes for different folks

oh! U see!

you are right you know! The ghana must go tag still goes on in nigeria cos they have done little to create a morally sound environment, and they do the same internally amongst the tribal lines. Its just pathetic. Now some youths that have no idea about ghana has just been conditioned to hate for no reason. See how free nigerians are in ghana. They eve feel free to do things they could not do back home
