What's Up With Ghana And Nigeria?
« on: July 05, 2006, 07:06 PM »

I have always been thinking why Nigerians persay have a problem whenever Ghana is mentioned in any topic, or even conversations. nigerian's seem to have this thing they probably hate about ghana. im saying this because i've really taken the initiative to make some research on it by verbally asking nigerians why they always seem to have some kind of problem whenever Ghana is mentiond in any topic or conversations and they all gave me the same answers " oh we love ghanaians" ya right. i know peeps might be thinking im saying this because they prolly think i'm a Ghanaian but no i'm not, its just something i've noticed about Nigerians. especially when this FIFA world cup begun almost all the african countries where ruling for Ghanaians u know, to make mother africa proud but i came to the forum only to read how they wanted ghana to loose badly. i want peeps to tell me what they think. and please answer it genuinely.

It would be nice if you do not classify all Nigerians as a homogenous group, I'm Nigerian and I certainly do not "hate" Ghana. I'm pretty sure you saw this thread on the sports board supporting Ghana's exploits at the WC.

Is it possible its your imagination at work?

@genelle, i think you are the one getting it all twisted. Ghanaians are the ones that have something against nigerians. You know the "GHANA must go" thing. Every time i tell a ghanaian that i;m nigerian, they make faces at me and stuff like that.

they always think Ghana is better than Nigeria and say we have 419 and we are corrupt, so i guess thats why people hate GHANA being mentioned, but hey its not all nigerians

Well I think most Ghanaians don't like Nigerians is because they hear so much bad things about Nigerians.
They hear that they steal and making fake cheques,do a lot of crime and whatever  Undecided Huh, I don't think ya'll need to blame the Ghanaians. I think ya'll need to blame the ones that tells all this kind of Bull Sh*t to them. But I'm cool with Nigerians and Ghanaians. We don't need to hate each other. We're one love man.

To the poster

Sorry love but you are so wrong, like HotAngel said how many people did you cover in your research? Huh

This is news to me, as far as i know and from my surroundings, there is no beef where Nigerians and Ghanians are concerned. I personally was rooting for ghana during the world cup, and i don't need to prove to anyone how much i love the small number of people i have met from Ghana, i say small because, i will not generalize and say they are all lovely or the sun shines out of their a$$, because we all have good and bad in all of us , i take each as they come.

I have not seen such generalization as you stated among my friends or family towards Ghanians, so i am really baffled as to where this is coming from.

God Bless Ghana ! Godbless Naija!  Wink Grin


P.s
some of you here need to check some of your posts, they are ignorant, ill-informed and unhealthy. Let those who want to insult the general population of Naija do so(they just make themselves look dumb and uneducated) and those who are insulting the general population of Ghana same goes for them, like i said there is good and bad in both nations and you can see it manifest its self in some posts here and everywhere else.

Yes i do feel the tension with ghananians , am only half Nigerian and well, am going to rep my country 150% simple, but i feel its as if where ALWAYS in competition with them ,and well it not going to stop people may say that"yes i like/Nigerians/ghanains, but deep down what is going on hmm i wonder? Huh they always want to compete when  they hear nigerians can do hair they label one with ghana weave lol, also in football/Cooking(jollof is najia stil?, correct), /clothes/FILMS/, dammmmnnn basically evrything , they may hear bad things about Nigeria, but i've heard bad things about them like "there sooo blaaaaccck"/ugly , they talk with no spaces, etc , with bad i  have heard good like they have nice hair , that is it really there many am sure its not true , but i don't feel we should slate them, /them slate, us naija is always going to be beterr "ego better", lmao jks

My sister me sef tired o!!!I know 4 sure if we want to access the spirit of patriotism in Nigeria,I believe that one of the yardstick to measure it is to check the way Nigerians take  personnal the hatred for their rival country citizens.Ghana is of no doubt Nigeria rival in so many ways that even i cannot listed them all.I don't like them, for sure, i don't and there is nothing i can do about it.

carmelily says:

2 bad 4 your mom because 1 in every 4 africans worldwide is a nigerian so we always in her face. besides, quote me anywhere, nigeria is one of the most hospitable countries in the world- rich culture, friendly people.


i LOVE ghanaians and i have loads of ghanaian friends and i do believe they love nigeria(ns) too. maybe genelle needs to make her research more scientific?

i think what we have here is healthy sibling rivalry between BIG BROTHER NIGERIA and cute BABY SIS GHANA.

long live the green, white,green AND the black stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Genelle
I couldn't resist but lay credence to this uninformed research of yours.  A little bit of basic sampling of all the "little" African countries, including Ghana will expose you to the level of misplaced hatred and envy they harbor towards Nigeria.  Their reason, I don't know and could care less.  I guess it is natural for little David to hate on Goliath.
