Gists By Ghana, Denies Making, Belittling Comments
The Ghana High Commission in Nigeria
has debunked a belittling statement about
Nigeria by President Nana Akufo-Addo.
Online reports claim that Akufo-Addo
made some provocative comments,
asking Nigerians to go back to their
country and make it better.
However, the Ghana High Commission in
Nigeria has said Akufo-Addo never made
such a statement. It added that the report
was misleading and a work of detractors
who want to sow discord between Nigeria
and Ghanaian leaders and their people.
The statement reads: “The attention of
Ghanaian officials has been drawn to
another spurious publication by faceless
individuals who are hell-bent on
destroying the very cordial and brotherly
relations existing between our leaders,
(President Akufo Addo and President
Buhari).
“President Akufo Addo has not and will
not make any disparaging remarks about
any country and her people, let alone a
very strategic partner like the Federal
Republic of Nigeria and her people.
“Clearly this is the work of people who
hate the progress the two leaders are
making to forge more deepened and
strategic relations. The said publication is
false and should be seen as the work of
detractors who want to sow discord
between our leaders and people.”
