Nigerians demarket their country. Have you ever seen a Ghanaian demarket their own country? All the Ghanaians do on social media is to demarket Nigeria with the help of Nigerians, especially IPOB, that will be screaming, Nigeria is a zoo. Lol. Very soon no country will give Nigerians visa. Let me see how you will run out of the country after saying all manner of nonsense.

Ghana is ranked the 43rd most peaceful country in the world, in the 2020 Global Peace Index, placing 104 spots ahead of Nigeria -- which grapples with Boko Haram insurgency and periodic outbreaks of violence.

any other statements?

Such petty issues mean a lot to many ignorant people, but in the real world, it means nothing, it's just a common rental office with 11 people working from home.

One small TECH company in Nigeria is paying and feeding more than 11 people.

We raised more TECH money in one month this year than South Africa with all their HQ raised in the whole of 2020.

Nigeria is still the main and favorite destination of TECH investments.

All the TECH giants in the world are in Nigeria even according to Twitter itself, their target market in Nigeria.

This is not about Twitter and Ghana because Ghana is a million miles behind is in GDP and TECH, their main issue is always hatred, bitterness and anti-Nigerian mentality.

Don't be surprised to see these ugly characters wake up tomorrow to tell you that Somalia is better than Nigeria.


It's really sickening and pathetic.

Nigerian vs. Ghana in the Human Development Index rankings:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_African_countries_by_Human_Development_Index

Also...

Reminder that this is the same Twitter whose CEO (Jack Dorsey) Garba tried to sue for $1 billion due to said CEO's support for #Endsars.

So why would something THEY SUPPORTED supposedly cause them to abandon Nigeria?

That's what Shoprite and Mr Price once said, but found 200 million dirt poor people. Now they're out. Atleast Twitter is cheap to use, and they dont need your money, just your eyeballs - that's what they'll use to show overseas investors that they have 30 million more subscribers, albeit poor ones.

So, it is Twitter that is your problem? Are you not satisfied with Google, Facebook, Microsoft and Nigeria as the leader and main TECH giant in Africa?

A Nigerian is now the owner of ShopRite, meaning that massive shopping outlet now belongs to Nigeria and all profits now stay in Nigeria, not South Africa.


Facebook and Google have more users and they have more power, more money, more influence and more reach than small Twitter and having a rental office in Ghana does increase their user number by 1, not a single user.

Twitter and one twitter office in Ghana mean nothing to us, they are not even anywhere close to the top 50 TECH companies in Africa and Nigeria remains at the top, number 1.


Now, when you are at the top, when your country is the top and the main tech investment destination in Africa and when your own country collected more investment money in one month than what South Africa and Kenya collected in the whole of 2020 so shouldn't you be happy for your country and how doesn't that mean Ghana that is at the bottom better than your own country because of a meaningless and valueless office in Ghana?


Where is the sense in this kind of basement mentality and thinking?


You people need to get real and stop this silliness because it's shameful, it's inferiority complex, it's thinking that the countries that are beneath you are actually better than you when in fact they are not you are better.

Ghana is sitting at the bottom of the TECH world in Africa and 1 Twitter rental office with 11 ghost workers won't change that.


When you have Google with a market value of $1.3 Trillion with their African HUB here in Nigeria so why in the world do you think Twitter with a poor market value of a meager $56 billion and a rental office and eleven ghost workers in ghana is better than you?


I still don't get it, some Nigerians need so serious psychiatric evaluation.

1. Which profits are you talking about that are gonna stay in Nigeria? There's a reason Nigeria didn't have a mall shopping experience before Shoprite, your business people just don't have the knack for it and your population will just go there to take selfies, but in a more decaying environment.

2. Facebook is Headquartered in South Africa, so is Amazon and Microsoft Data Centres in Johannesburg and Cape Town. What you'll soon have is a small rented Facebook office just like the one you are describing for Ghana's Twitter. Your Google and Microsoft offers are shared between Nigeria and Kenya (co-hosting), so that Nairobi can hold your hand throughout everything. That's a clear sign of lack of confidence in your infrastructure and human resources.

3. You keep repeating this flawed statement that Nigeria secured more tech investment than SA in just one month, but that's because there was a single huge investment into one company, Flubberwave or something. The same happened in SA and Kenya over the years, dwarfing investment into Nigeria, like when Microsoft invested $30 billion into SA a few years ago for the Data Centres - it's like rotating chairs.So don't try fooling people.

Lol, HIV - what's next, something about the whites? See how predictable you are.

Anyway, I'm not here trolling, I saw this thread hours ago and ignored it, but only responded now coz your friend keeps repeating lies over and over. I didn't see you complaining when he was bullying Ghana, a much smaller country. Now you crying when someone from a more developed country is dissing you. Very hypocritical.
