  • Summary

  • From friends to enemies and finally to lovers, the story of Nigeria and Ghana’s rivalry is part classic rom-com and part Western showdown. On this episode Mayowa Idowu travels back in time with Culture Custodian writer Damilola Oyeleke and her uncle Justus Oyeleke to Ghana in 1969, days after over 2 million African migrants were forced out of the country. Years later, Mr Oyeleke watched how Ghanaian migration into Nigeria was followed by a mass expulsion that we would dub ‘Ghana must go’. Follow the trio as they trace how this love-hate story has spanned soccer showdowns, battle of the bands, and Jollof wars.
