I call this Cooperate PR scam! The lady refused to establish the fact that once that deal is signed, it would mean that goods from EU would start flowing freely into Nigeria... and ask yourself who in Europe would want to buy made in Nigeria products in return? at the end of the day the EU would be the major benefactor of such deal and Nigeria will be on the loosing end.
I bless God I have a Good President at the helm of affairs, a President that knows what's good for my country now !

drnoel:


Don't mind those people. Is that not what Ghana signed and their economy crashed and in still in trouble.

Princewill1:
They should go and die! Gej has already tore and thrown this EU-Ecowas trade document into his trash cane.Ghanian president wanted to drag Ecowas into this rubbish,but thanks to Gej who saw the future and quickly rejected the agreement and now they are begging.They want to turn us into their dump site,they should pls look elsewhere.

SantaMafia:
the only reason nigeria may not sign the epa is because it exports mainly crude oil to the EU, which is not subject to EPA conditionality. If nigeria does not want to sign the epa, that is its own business. If Ghana or other countries want to sign, that is also their own business. so what exactly is making some of you sound like Ghana did anything wrong by signing the epa? every country acts in its best interest.

PointB:


Buhari would have signed it, without thinking!

iamord:


Shut up!
If you don't know something or u are not sure ask or find out!!
Ghana is yet to sign it .nor any of the african countries.
I repeat if You don't know something or u are not sure ask or find out!

Nigerian cocoa-processing companies say the cost of exporting their products to Europe has been inflated by 30 percent because of a stalemate in agreeing new trade terms with the European Union.

Nigerian cocoa butter and cake exports are charged from 4.2 percent to 6.1 percent of freight-on-board values as taxes at EU ports without an agreement, Felix Oladunjoye, executive secretary of the Cocoa Processors Association of Nigeria, or Copan, said in a phone interview today from Lagos, the commercial capital. Nigeria is the only country in West Africa yet to sign the Economic Partnership Agreement protocol on free trade by the EU and African, Caribbean and Pacific countries, he said.

Buhari that rejected IMF loans and world bank directions. Buhari who paid up all our debt?.
Dont even go there, you be small pikin in political economics.

SantaMafia:
rubbish! first of all, the Ghanaian economy is not even close to crashing so stop talking like a foooooool. the economy is growing at nearly 7% and foreign direct investment is the 3rd highest in africa!

secondly, Ghana's current macroeconomic imbalance has nothing with signing or not signing an epa

PointB:


Buhari would have signed it, without thinking!

Nctrice:

I think his kinds would have agreed without thinking twice, because all they think about is their personal gain, and what they intend to benefit in the short run... it's his kinds that has placed this country where we are today. And the president is trying to right their wrongs and they are calling him Clueless... sometimes I wonder if politician think all Nigerians were fools, even if all Nigerians were fools, the truth is we can't be fool forever!

GEJ is the one fawning over the western world. Buhari was anti west when he was in office. Nigeria was on the road to economic independence GEJ and NOI meanwhile have squandered all the reserves built during the OBJ regime and have returned Nigeria to a debtor nation. More loans are coming with oil at $78 a barrel. Ngozi will take loans for anything and Jona does not know enough to stop her.
