@OP,your plan your business!! I make close to $2700 a month doing one online business or the other...So how much u make doesn't matter,before relocating always think about the pros n cons instead of just jumping in a bus n say you're relocating without proper research.Enough said!!


Abeg, teach me that business. Let me start making my own too.

@venzal, have you finally moved to Ghana? If not, please think twice. Because there economy is very bad. I stay here and I earn well when I mean well I mean very well but I still don't like the country and can't wait to go back home.

How will I be buying Okro that they will be counting for me... Mbanu... 2 pieces of Okro for 1 cedis haba!!! Even if Nigeria is bad it can't be worst like this. Ghanaians are suffering in silence. 7 pieces of red pepper for 7 pesuwas. You can convert it. House am staying I paid $320 per month which is more than $3600 per year.

Also, Ghanaians are not friendly I mean not friendly at all. They are won't even invite you to their house tankless of greeting you. If you greet them self Na by force dem go answer you as if you are fighting with them.

[quote author=K post=48665272]Hmmm really serious one babe. How are you managing na?[/quote

I dey manage anyhow oh. I only buy food things not food stuff oh because I can't eat their rice cos is perfumed rice so I package my rice from Nigeria.
A colleague came to visit me with his family recently from Nigeria, they were even thinking of using two weeks when the guy withdraw 200k from atm and didn't use it to buy anything reasonable Na so he pack the family and say he dey commot.
True be told, Ghana is not that smiling. In fact, to buy half tank for my fuel every week I spent 150cedis per week for half tank oh!!! Imagine. Biko convert it to our currency that's 15k in black market rate per week. I dey travel? I wonder.

If you don't have a stable income here you are your own. Can't wait to finish what I came here to do and go back to my country.

Don't you think converting the money to Naira is the big mistake you people are making?

Look... The Nigerian currency has lost 50% of its value in two years, and it is sliding further down...
Converting to Naira is not a very right comparison tho.
I remember when 1000 was 20GHC, now it is 10 GHC..

My point is that comparison is somehow.

Besides , in my stay in Ghana, I really loved it... My friends I made over there took care of me, and the safety was remarkable.

They leave their doors open while going out shocked while in Nigeria we cage ourselves in like evolved dogs.


Every country has it's plus and minus tho, don't just write Ghana off like that, when our own country isntvmuch better.

Am not comparing with present economy but am comparing with past value. For example. Chivita is 11cedis and that's like 550naira. Well as for me, Ghanaians are not friendly that's my own point of view. And likewise otherwise my colleague from Nigerians POV too... The only thing Ghana has that makes it better than Nigeria is light and by God grace we will get there. Apart from that nothing else.

Well, as you said, it is your point of view.
Ghana has more positives over Nigeria than the light o.

The safety
The schools (There are thousands of Nigerians in Ghanaian schools, but how many of them come here?)
Less bottleneck for those who want to start business.
A serious drawback to Ghana is that they don't have the market Nigeria has, if not many investors won't even bother coming here.
Even at that, they are moving from Nigeria to Ghana in droves.
They have faster internet and cheaper data/calls

They were friendly to me as I said before.

But the country is expensive as hell.
Maybe you don't like the country because you are not used to the environment.

Faster internet? Only Vodafone is okay for me oh. Call to outside country is expensive too. Well for their school, they have good standard in education. However, there are some schools in Nigeria that are good also.

Generally, Ghana is a bit expensive sha. But God will help everyone that may want to move there. But I will advice strongly that they should have steady income so that they will be able to manage.

Thanks for the info and input. I know why you are skeptical about my going there. What I do can get me paid anywhere in the world. Even if every other fails, Fiverr is one of my sources of income. It brings in at least $1k every month. Are you saying that will not be enough to live in peace and comfortably in Accra (which I think your 'fear' stems from)
even living in a hotel 1k $ it's enough but never allowed anyone here to know your source of income GH boys envy naija boys to much know your moves Bro am currently in GH.

Yes I am in Accra. Bro like you I was in Nigeria and trying to work online. I found that many of the companies online did not even have Nigeria among the list of Countries when you try registering. I had to relocate. And once outside, no one cared if i was a Nigerian as my address simply changed. I found I could easily register and order from Clickbank and simple stuffs like that. I have no regrets for that decision. I am fine in Accra.
How is life in Accra?
