Following a news eport carried by the Vanguard newspaper that Ghana has placed a ban onsome imported goods from Nigeria, the office of Ghana Consulate-General has in a statement debunked the claim, saying that at no point did the Ghanaian authorities ban any imported goods from Nigeria.
Vanguard had on February 18, 2016 in a report titled: ‘Ghana bans goods from Nigeria, other countries’ stated that Ghana has prohibited some items from entry into its domains, following Nigeria’s footsteps that restricted 41 items from access to foreign exchange, adding that Ghana had however placed a ban on some goods from being imported into the country.
The statement reads: “The Ghana High Commission wouldwish to state categorically that the (story) is false and does not reflect the position of the Ghanaian Government or that of the Hon. Minister of Trade and Industry of Ghana, Mr. Ekwow Spio-Grbarah, as alleged by the Vanguard report.”
