Important reporting here. A really great job and sensitively written on an important topic.

Read: 'The burden of being Nigerian in Ghana'.
It's worth pointing out that there are several instances of violence of Ghanaians toward Nigerians, some have been fatal. I'd say it can be more dangerous than just a burden.

The truth, the whole truth and nothing but...

Talk da ting

Behind every woman with an economics degree, there’s a man who read the economist once explaining things to her.

This story...

Kennedy Agyapong has made inflammatory statements on a number of occasions, and now someone is dead. So elected officials can just run their mouth and that's it? No consequences for them?

There is so much happening on this continent right now. Sending prayers and love to Kenyans who are shocked and grieving again. And to Zimbabweans, Togolese and Cameroonians. May it get easier to live and thrive at home.

If you are a Lawyer in the South-East, South-South & Niger-Delta region and interested in volunteering with us to end gender-based violence, kindly fill our volunteer intake form: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Let’s work together in taking a #StandtoEndRape in Nigeria.

Clarification: this job is with Friends of the Earth International, not Friends of the Earth Europe🌍 and is based in #Amsterdam , not #Brussels . Still an amazing opportunity for the right person in an equally cool European city. Apply!

A lovely moment captured in love.
