As the days turn into weeks and possibly months on the closure of Nigeria’s border by the Federal Government, it appears it has begun taking its toll on neighbouring countries and their economy, the foremost country being Ghana.
In a reaction to the closure and the apparent insistence of the Federal Government on not going back on this move, Ghana Union of Traders Association has called for a boycott of all Nigerian products by Ghana.
They believe their boycott will force the federal government to retink its decision.
Recall that Nigeria had partially shut its borders since August.
According to Ghanaweb.com, Greater Accra Regional Secretary of GUTA, David Kwadwo Amoateng on Adom FM’s morning show, Dwaso Nsem, at the weekend said the Nigerian government had not been fair to foreign traders.
In return, he expected the Ghanaian government to prevent Nigerian traders from bringing goods into Ghana, but that plea has fallen on deaf ears.
“Either somebody’s bread has been buttered or we are cowards. Government is not being fair to us,” he fumed.
