They are running to Ghana to setup factory there because of constant electricity they have there in Ghana (courtesy of Nigeria), whereas we in Nigeria don't have constant electricity.

@OP Don't fret, those products will still be in our markets just that they will no longer be manufactired here in Nigeria but in other African countries.

Apt. It requires asymmetrical thought-level to know that many Nigerians are either too used to bad governance or they sincerely don't feel they deserve the opposite. Ask them how many multinationals have set up shop in Nigeria since 2015, compared to the number that has left.

It's Nigerians like you and I that mismanaged funds meant to fix power in our dear country.. They are there walking free today with wealth from stolen money criticizing and condemning government as if they were better.

The states they operated in will loose income tax, the areas the staff lived will loose revenue from patronage of the staff to super markets. School fees, Home rentals , electrical bills , fuel stations ,local markets etc , the economic loss wil extend to towns. Local government, cities, states .

For gsk, Unilever, Dunlop , Michelin, Woolworth, usbc bank etc , the multiplier effect can only but be imagined

Most times, their "leaving" means "relocating" to where power is readily available and somewhat affordable for them.. It is what it is and I don't blame them but our people and the bad leaders in Nigeria.

Explain to me how you think sir. Tell me how "these products will no longer be available in Nigeria" is the same as prices is going to be higher or what the fate of their employees in Nigeria will be.
Some of you just contort yourselves out of logic just to lie.

Why is this? Is it because the cost of production suddenly went up since the company announced that they were leaving or some Nigerians just take pleasure in exploiting and inflicting pain on their fellow citizens?
We have seen this with the subsidy removal, we have even seen it every holidays when transportation cost is hiked just because a lot of people are eager to get back to their bases.
What Nigerians are doing to each other is far more wicked than what any government can do.

They should go.
They are briefcase investors. Their exit will open up our local herbal medicine market. Agbo will replace some of their products.
We are going back to our roots , the ways of our ancestors. the black African traditional medicine. Hallelujah wink

See why i say Tinubu supporters are truly lame??

Don't you know that its an indictment on Tinubu and his useless Administration that necessitated GSK to leave NIGERIA?

Who should be rejigging the comatose power sector?...Tinubu!!
Who should be bringing in policies to stop foreign companies from leaving....Tinubu?
Who should be jump starting the economic growth..Tinubu!

Instead the buzu is busy looking for whom to fight in NIGER REPUBLIC? angry

You can actually open your mouth to say this Nonsense, when you actively participated in ushering in BUHARI and following with Tinubu?

Truly, you guyz need a holistic brain reformat in that sadwasted region...

What a people , what a tribe...what manner of fvckery is this sef...spits angry
