How different are we, really?

In this episode, we unpack one of the most uncomfortable chapters in West African history. From the economic dominance of southern Nigerian migrants in pre-independence Ghana to the Ghana Must Go expulsions of the 1980s, we explore how migration, politics, and economic hardship shaped public attitudes toward outsiders.

We then ask a difficult question: How different is this history from the xenophobic violence seen in South Africa today? Are these isolated events, or do they reveal a recurring pattern of fear, nationalism, and economic frustration across the continent?

This isn't about blaming one country or another. It's about examining history honestly, challenging our assumptions, and understanding why xenophobia continues to resurface in Africa.

If you've ever wondered whether history repeats itself—or whether we've learned anything from it—this conversation is for you.
