FG condemns attack on Nigerian residential in Ghana
Federal Government condemns attack on Nigerian residential properties in Ghana.
The Federal Government has condemned the two attacks on its residential buildings in Accra, describing them as criminal and outrageous, demanding urgent action from the Ghanaian authorities.
Geoffrey Onyeama who is the Minister of Foreign Affairs made this known via his verified twitter handle @GeoffreyOnyeama on Sunday.
The federal government was already engaging with the Ghanaian authorities to urgently bring the perpetrators to book and protect the lives of Nigerians in Ghana, he said.
Newsmen gathered that the attack on the Nigerian High Commission’s quarters in Accra happened in the early hours of June 20.
“We strongly condemn two outrageous criminal attacks in Accra, #Ghana, on a residential building in our diplomatic premises by unknown persons in which a bulldozer was used to demolish the building.
“We are engaging with the Ghanaian government and we demand urgent action to find the perpetrators and provide adequate protection for Nigerians and their properties in Ghana,” he twitted.
Newsmen report that for sometimes, Nigerians and their property have been severely attacked by the Ghanaians.
The federal government has, however, been engaging with the Ghanaian authorities to put an end to the attacks.
