For the Sake of our Collective Security

My oh my. The colourful, expensive, no harm intended Naija (Nigerian) billboards mounted around Accra, Ghana for the benefit of "Nigerians living next door" were taken down in a huff by security operatives. The billboards were heralding Nigerian presidential elections slated for February this year and featured presidential hopefuls and the incumbent.
 But the country's National Security has been advised by a security expert that Boko Haram is averse to such show of brotherly hospitality in the home of the current ECOWAS chair and hence the frenzied move to remove the offending billboards. Now we are told to breath easy again because the militants will forgive this unfortunate mishap.  Well if they thought of this as an issue then their mission is even more questionable. 

I am certain the questions about whether any law was broken by the act of putting up billboards, whether it was indeed an invitation to ... you know, and so many other questions will be resolved in the media shortly. Here's one take. I do not doubt that the concerns about possible political and diplomatic tensions are probably well founded. From another angle, is it not interesting that political parties in Nigeria (or perhaps their supporters in Ghana) believe that advertising in Ghana is important, perhaps vital to their election prospects? And does that not say something about the broader reality of the rising immigrant problem in the country? I wonder.
