The rivalry between Ghana and Nigeria dates way back in history. The two West African countries have battled each other in football, politics, economy and entertainment.

But the jollof war between the two countries is far from over. And UK diplomat and former British Ambassador to Ghana, Jon Benjamin, has advised Nigerians not to make Naija Meets Ghana about jollof because they will suffer home defeat.
