During the meeting, Ojukwu and Ablakwa discussed concerns arising from the demonstrations, where some Ghanaian citizens accused Nigerians of contributing to rising crime levels. The Ghanaian Minister assured Ojukwu that the lives, properties, and businesses of Nigerians living in Ghana are also safe and protected. There is no threat of mass deportations of Nigerian nationals residing in Ghana.
