Nigeria’s Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu, made an urgent diplomatic visit to Ghana following viral protests demanding the deportation of Nigerians.

The unrest was sparked by the controversial installation of an Igbo king, Eze Chukwudi Jude Ihenetu, and his remarks about establishing an Igbo kingdom in Ghana.

Social media erupted with outrage, fueling fears of cultural dominance and criminal allegations.

Ojukwu met with Ghana’s Foreign Minister Samuel Ablakwa and the Inspector-General of Police to de-escalate tensions.

Ghanaian officials confirmed the remarks were outdated and had been formally apologized for.

Ojukwu emphasized Nigeria’s commitment to peaceful coexistence and praised Ghana’s leadership for maintaining calm.

Her visit reaffirmed diplomatic ties and called for mutual respect between both nations.
