Do you remember this Ghana must go bags?
We use it on daily basis to package items like clothings and other personal stuffs.
This Ghana must go bag originated when Ghanaians were first expelled en masse from Nigeria in 1983, most of them hurriedly packed their belongings in a big silk bag with red and blue stripes.
The Nigerians, either by affection or ridicule, began to call this bag (which is really made in China, and sold even in Europe), “Ghana must go”.
This name gained a fast currency in Ghana, and up till today, that hold-all bag is identified by that name.
In 1983, the government ordered over 2 million immigrants to leave, and about 700,000 Ghanaians were reported to have been expelled from Nigeria. The Nigerian government expelled 2 million Africans out of the country.
In the face of severe drought and economic problems, Nigeria had welcomed several Ghanaians in the 1970s, when the country was in the midst of an oil boom, and in need of cheap labour.
Mr Eazi is a Nigerian Afrobeat singer based in Ghana since 2007. An internationally performing artist signed to Wizkid’s Star Boy Worldwide label.
Earlier this year, He was a source of controversy because of his opinion on Nigerian stealing Ghana sound.
He recieved a lot of backlash from Nigerians on twitter, but even after apologizing, Mr Eazi is still on his ghana grind.

Is he not lovely?
