Another footage of Ghana must go 1983 ..Even though Ghana was the first to deport Nigerians in 1954 and 1969. The deportation of West African migrants from Nigeria Occurred following a January 1983 executive order from President Shehu Shagari, which forced illegal immigrants to leave the country or face arrest. As a result of Shagari's order, over two million migrants were deported, including one million Ghanaian nationals. The story begins long before the expulsion. In the 1970s and early 1980s, Ghana struggled with severe economic hardship. Dwindling oil reserves, high inflation, and mounting debt led to a decline in living standards. Many Ghanaians, seeking better opportunities, migrated to neighbouring Nigeria, which enjoyed a booming economy fueled by its oil wealth. This influx, estimated at over two million people by the early 1980s, brought skilled labour and entrepreneurship, contributing to Nigeria's economic growth. However, tensions began to simmer. The sheer number of migrants strained resources, and whispers of competition for jobs and opportunities arose.✍️ I love History 📜 💕

As much as Namibia is widely lauded for its 'investor-friendly environment'. The country is neither doing well nor enough to 'ease the process of starting a business'. A 'one-stop-centre' won't address this issue. There's more to ease doing business. At the moment, only wealthy non-Namibians can start a business in Namibia with ease - and the only advantage they have is enough starting capital to start and, set up a business. Countless business-driven Namibians - young, middle-class, and old, are struggling to start a business in Namibia due to a lack of starting capital among other hurdles and bottlenecks. This is not a secret. The focus of all trade and investment promotion in Namibia is foreign-focused and less inward-focused.
Namibia - one of the most difficult places to start a business, ranking in the bottom 13% worldwide (190 countries/economies assessed). Namibia sits in the same territory as Zimbabwe, Uganda and South Sudan. Ouch.
