Akufo Addo and Npp are responsible for your woes–Asiedu Nketia.
The General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress has
described as unfortunate the tagging of Nigerians as criminals.
To Johnson Asiedu Nketia, Nigerians should not be responsible for the
country’s problems because institutions in the country have failed to
work with laws to deal rightfully with criminals.
Drive foreigners away,they will go with their money and that is not good for us so lets becareful with the way we do things.
“The right for migrants is a human right, the issue has to do with the
laws of the country. Any foreigner who comes to a country needs to obey
the laws of the country, but our problem is that we have failed to allow
the laws to work in our institutions and so we cannot blame Nigerians
for all these problems.
“The same way Nigerians are involved in kidnapping, it is the same way
some Ghanaians are also involved in it. How can you arrest such a person
and then go straight ahead and say Nigerians brought kidnapping?” he
noted.
The involvement of Nigerians in high profile crimes in recent times is
viewed as causing some resentments for Nigerians in Ghana.
But, Mr Nketia believes there are criminals in every country’s population and profiling Nigerians as criminals is wrong.
“We have criminals in every country, so how do you single out only
Nigerians or even some foreigners as criminals? Let’s focus on how our
institutions can work with the laws and that is how we stop this
stereotype issue,” he noted.
