Ghanaians make me laugh, now here’s why In 1972, Idi Amin expelled 80,000 Ugandan Asians, many 3rd-generation citizens, blaming them for economic woes. Supporters cheered, eyeing their assets. But the economy collapsed. Fun-fact: Today, Uganda’s wealthiest man is Asian. You see why economics doesn’t care about tribe. The Ugandan Asians, mostly Indians, were key to the economy, controlling 90% of commerce by 1972. Amin’s decree gave their businesses to “natives,” but lack of expertise led to mismanagement. GDP dropped 20% in 2 years. Scapegoating backfired. Amin justified it as “Africanization,” claiming to return wealth to Ugandans. Yet, a 1975 UN report noted industrial output fell from 740M to 254M Ugandan shillings by 1979. The “natives” weren’t lazy though, the thing is, systems collapsed without skilled hands. By the 1980s, Uganda begged Asians to return. A 2016 BBC report highlights their resurgence, rebuilding trade and industry. The wealthiest Ugandan today, Sudhir Ruparelia, is an Asian tycoon. Now here’s Irony: Amin’s policy enriched those he targeted. This isn’t unique. Nigeria’s 1983 “Ghana Must Go” expelled 1M Ghanaians, blaming them for jobs. A 1985 IMF study linked it to a 5% naira devaluation; have you any idea what %5 devaluation of any currency mean? Zimbabwe’s land grabs under Mugabe was exactly the same story; economic ruin followed. Sentiment can’t save you. Nobody can downplay the impact of foreigners in any country especially in Ghana where Nigeria controls the market for a lot of business, especially the motor parts. Ghanaian can’t match the expertise of Nigerians in every single business in Ghana. If Nigerians move their heavy investments out of Ghana, I’m sorry for Ghana. However, Government knows these things, and that’s exactly why they never take these futile protests by Ghanaians serious. Sensible citizens don’t ask impactful foreigners to leave, cos a handful of them move your nation’s economy in a way that a million of actual indigenous citizens has no capacity to. Demand for the deportation of foreigners that has no impact or rather has a negative impact. She’s asking for something that even the Ghanaian Government lacks the ability to do.

The word GAY is an adjective, so Ugandans where did you get this nonsense of “he is a gay” ???
