That is the spirit of nationalism. Niger is protecting and supporting its citizen to bring the money back home, irrespective of what is associated to that money. Ghanaians out of jealousy would have wished you lost it all.

Carrying $200,000 around for what. A crook being helped to collect the money by a crookish VULTURE. The international law must be applied with full rigour.

Usually, seizures undeclared monies over the International $10,000 declaration law is observed by all countries including Ghana.
However, the monies are momentarily seized, but upon paying a fine the moneys are released to the owner, unless it related to crime money laundering and a proceed from crime.
Ghana should return that guy's money if they couldn't find a crime committed by him.
