what do you poor 200 million poverty capital of the world citizens want from Ghana that you always post Ghanaian news on your stupid site.Leave us alone!!!If you want to feel respected,better solve your extreme poverty and stupid divisions. Ghana's economy is growing at 8% whilst yours is crawling below 2% with your population growth rate of more than 3% being higher than your economic growth rate which is abnormal. To hell with your zoo country and leave Ghana alone.Let any stupid mod ban me for telling you not to report any Ghanaian news on your stinking forum.Poor cows living in a zoo.

No... pls don't say that,when OBJ made duty for furniture imports 100% , furniture importers cried ,but have you seen the positive upsurge in our local furniture manufacturers?

My neighbor has a poultry farm ,i hardly see him again,because his production is not meeting up with his supplies and so he has doubled up on his work force and production.

The border closure is going to hurt at the beginning,but trust me in no longer distance at least 50% of the things we import will be produced here on a steady basis.

God bless Nigeria.

Sirwallace:


Are you for real with your assertion?

The multiplying effect on the Nigerian economy cannot be overemphasised.

Do you realise nigeria manufacturers and producers are now working around the clock to meey local demands. Thats more sales for local farmers, polutry owners, local manufacturers etc.
Thats a rise in employment and tax for the govt.


The Govt get more duties from sea port usage as opposed to the Benin republic getting all the goodies and smuggling the product to the country.

You forget Nigeria manufactures for the while of West Africa and even up to Central Africa! We underrate our manufacturing prowess because our manufacturers or their customers smuggles those goods out of Nigeria without paying duty! I schooled in Maiduguri and up to 2000 that I was there, if you go to a certain park, you will see goods manufactured in Nigeria being parked into different types of vehicles to be smuggled out! Plastic, pharmaceutical products, mats, etc! What if I told you a lie that food manufactured in Nigeria like Indomie, Milo, etc are supplied to the whole of West Africa? If you buy anything produced in Nigeria and the details are written in French and English, that thing is not meant for consumption only in Nigeria! It is meant for the whole if West Africa! Those manufacturers, how will they survive? We need to resolve the smuggling issue (both in and out) but the border need to be opened because it won't solve the problems!

Dasuks:


You are fully aware of the difference in scale of both economies yeah? Regardless of present growth rates trends u cannot compare a 45 billion usd gdp to a 400 billion usd economy. Esp when if we are to look at the 1995 to 2015 (long term period) Ghana's economy moved from 7 to 45 bln whilst Nigeria's did a 15× from 30 to 500 bln.

Sustainable growth in Nigeria is still higher and on the issue of poverty the Nigerian consumer earns a poor 1900 usd compared to Ghana's POORER 1600 usd. The poverty capital talk comes from applying poverty rates to the higher population figure thus producing a bigger absolute value. The rates are arguably higher across the region but the scale in numbers is numbed by the smaller populations. The wealth holdings in Lagos exceed that of Ghana (59 bln) and cities like Abuja Kano and PHC could very well match the entire nation's.......

Allow Nigeria fix her issues and stop pointless talk. Because on the issue of regional integration it's still the same Nigeria that contributes more than 60% of all funds to the ECOWAS. 710 million in 15 years compared to 700 mln contributed by all other members cumulatively.... even with the oil revenues from the GNPC u could never even dream to make half of those contributions.

Cut it with the poverty talk... it gets stale. Between the major cities Nigerian HNWIs are wealthier than the entire region put together. Shush.

You need not go through all this stress to educate the dingbat,the purchase powers of both countries currencies answers the question.
An average labourer in Nigeria can eat a 300 naira food and still work with good strength,can a labourer in Ghana get his belly filled with 5 cedis? hell no!

Arizonaguy:
Dude you are so funny
The last sentence cracks me up...you are a comedian man

Thanks for that compliment bro. That's why we are here. Cheers!

Nigeria is often referred to as the "Giant of Africa", owing to its large population and economy. With 186 million inhabitants, Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa and the seventh most populous country in the world.

I understand your point. But is it a common knowledge we consume more than we produce.
Smugglers of these goods undermine local manufacturers and that is why most of them go out of business.

We are talking tons of goods smuggle into the country without a penny being paid as duties on these goods. No developed country can take that. It is called trade Imbalance and we are at the receiving end.

Another thing is the issue of Nigerian Mindset and inferiority complex towards our own good. We import more than we export especially goods that can be produced around here.

In the long run, we stand to gain more than lose with the closure as lesser demands of dollar used in importing these goods will strengthen the Naira, boost local production, create employment and grow the economy.

My bad I had to type something. Ppl over quote the poverty stat a lot without recognizing what that means for Africa as a whole. If NG is extremely poor then what adjective would qualify countries with lower productivity and worse poverty rates, numbees notwothstanding ? And to see that coming from a featherweight country is a bit sad. Dont really criticize other Africans but oh well..

And back to your point. All the 5cedis would buy is a bottle of coke. While the labourer will chop bellefull. Currency exchange rates are meaningless on their own. Afterall more Nigerians are bound to demand/use the cedi than the other way round. Any African currency weaker than ours without any manufacturing activity going on is not serious.

FarahAideed:
If Buhari can't honor the ECOWAS protocol on free movt and trade then he should pull Nigeria out of it or better still ECOWAS should grow some balls and expel Nigeria

closure of the borders does not mean there is not free movement, it just means u can't come through the land borders, there is the sea and air.

My brother, no mind them. We are not all like that.

I've lived in Accra for years, and your people are some of the friendliest, nicest and most welcoming people.

Some of us Nigerians are very arrogant and conceited over nothing.

To mention a few...

We have shìt roads, shìt schools, shĺt everything.

Terrorists control large swaths of territory within our country.

We have neither pipe borne water nor electricity.

Herdsmen, armed robbers, militants and kidnappers operate with impunity.

Police routinely murder people extrajudicially. And the military are a law unto themselves.

Internationally, we have the most stellar reputation...of not trafficking drugs or scamming people /s

Yet, despite all these, some how we are still the giant of Africa.

Honestly, we should rather be ashamed of where we are as a country — despite our potentials and resources.

On behalf of the non-stupid members of my country, I sincerely apologise for all those unprovoked insults you received.

Please have pity too, a lot of people are just frustrated.
