Nigeria: Thank you Mr. D

Dagonte: You are welcome... all your Nairas are belong to me hahahaha.

Nigeria: But Mr. D, what are you gonna do about the superior Ghana cement about to enter our fatherland.

Dagonte: Don't worry my mumus, we shall deny them petrol from my refinery.

Nigeria: but.. but.. they... don't need our petrol. WE NEED IT MOST!... and your refinery doesn't exist yet. Theirs have been operational since 1960s.

Dagonte: Ok we will sell them more cement or indomie.

Nigeria: But they manufacture their own cement YOU DUFUS!

Dagonte: Hey, you can't talk to me like that! I own our economy! You are my slaves! Don't make me relocate all my operations to Ghana.

Nigeria: Oga just joking. You are definitely our oga at the top. We are not worthy... we are not worthy... we are not worthy... igweee... igweee...

West African Pidgin originated from Ghana.

West African Pidgin English, also called Guinea Coast Creole English, was the lingua franca, or language of commerce, spoken along the West African coast during the period of the Atlantic slave trade. British slave merchants and local African traders developed this language in the coastal areas in order to facilitate their commercial exchanges, but it quickly spread up the river systems into the West African interior because of its value as a trade language among Africans of different tribes. Later in its history, this useful trading language was adopted as a native language by new communities of Africans and mixed-race people living in coastal slave trading bases such as James Island, Bunce Island, Elmina Castle, Cape Coast Castle (In GHANA) and Anomabu. At that point, it became a creole language.

My dear chat later. Dn't have the time to fight all day with fools and the funniest part is most of these fools are in Ghana. Ghana is really too friendly of a country as our Guests are mocking us yet they are coming by the thousands on Abc buses to Ghana daily.

Tell them sis. They are actual INVADING us, not coming.

Luckily for us, we can easily identify them when they open their mouth to speak English. The ones who have picked up Ghanaian languages can be hard to identify at first, but then their Nigerian loudness and pigdeon comes through.

Don't fret, Alien Compliance Order 2.0 is being designed by our leaders. When it passes, the only Nigerians in Ghana I would protect are Nairaladers cheesy.

How is Ghana ungrateful to Nigeria?Your country does not give the gas to us a gift. Togo Benin as well as Ghana pays for the gas which would have been flared by the way as you have done for many years.
True oo. Nigerians gloat about all their companies in Ghana as if they're there doing charity work.

As a matter of fact, the true power of a country's economy is how well it attracts Foreign Direct Investment (FDI).

The question these companies ask themselves is, "will I make money and be safe if I relocate my operations to Ghana? The answer is always a resounding YES!

May I also add that Fuse ODG's "Azonto" song made it to the Top Ten on some world chart (can't quite remember which). It's also very popular on iTunes.

Politics / Re: Ghana To Re-open Nigerian Shops by Abrantie: 8:20pm On Apr 09, 2013
Royal^Pearl^:
I would like to know exactly what the real reason was for closing the shops because there are so many diff stories going around. Some ppl are quick to fight. Did they do anything wrong? Did they have the right legal papers etc etc. If it was really an unfair closing of these men shops for no justifiable reason then that is sad and an injustice, but if it was out of legal matter than you cannot really blame them because when you do not abide by the rules in many countries eventually you will get into trouble.
The reason is, we have a law which states that petty trading is reserved for Ghanaians. Any foreigner who wishes to engage in retail business should invest a high amount into it and adhere to some other minor regulations.

The law wasn't specifically directed at Nigerians, but because y'all are paranoid, don't like to follow rules, feel entitled but have low self-esteem...

Sam xiu lee: I like mr dangote,but this cement issues is against the laws in economics,they claim they have surplus yet the price didn't come down,they claimed that they have capacity to supply the Nigerian market and export the product,they didn't,am really confused cos I can see that,this same situation might play out if and when we have more refineries,either private or govt owned,if the cement from Ghana is cheaper abeg they should let it in.
btw when did Ghana start cement production?

Ghana's first cement factory, GHACEM opened in 1950s, during Nkrumah's time.

Small Ghana currently has a total of about 3 cement factories.

Romance / Women Choose Mates By Shoulder Size First, Then Secondly By Something Else by Abrantie: 10:59pm On Apr 08, 2013
Size matters when women look for a mate, a study finds, whether it’s the size of a man’s shoulders versus his hips, his height or anywhere else.

That’s the conclusion of Australian and Canadian scientists who studied what women look for in men. The research, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, was done to help develop a better understanding of sexual selection.

About 80 percent of 105 women queried cited a wide shoulder-to-hip ratio as being attractive, the study found, with the other 20 percent split equally between height and flaccid penis size. The researchers generated computer models in order to assess responses to various body dimensions.

“Mating behavior in general is important,” said Brian Mautz, a post-doctoral researcher in biology at the University of Ottawa, Canada who was the study author.

Facial symmetry and body shape are known to play a role in sexual selection. While the importance of the shoulder-to-hip ratio and of height is consistent with previous research, the finding on penis size was a surprise, Mautz said.

“Height and penis size had the same effect, and to me, that’s surprising,” Mautz said in a telephone interview. “We know taller men make more money, are more likely to have leadership positions and have more children. To have penis size have the equivalent effect was just, wow.”

Other things that may influence male attractiveness include body hair, movement, and other physical cues, Mautz said. This study “opens the door” to look at those as well, he said.

The researchers were funded by the Australian Research Council.

Science/Technology / Re: Cost Of Different Sources Of Electricity In Nigeria by Abrantie: 7:35pm On Apr 08, 2013
tbaba1234: Also the fact that the sun shines for 9 hours does not mean that the panel would produce at full capacity during that period.

The tilt of the panel matters as well. Does your panel move with the sun??

What i am trying to point out is that, there is no way a solar panel can be cheaper than PHCN grid...

Photovoltaic energy is not economically dispatchable for a reason

Nigeria is pretty much on the equator so panels don't need to do a lot of rotating.

I have a 5KVA inverter with 200x4AH deep-circle batteries, six solar charging panels. I enjoy lights, TVs, fans etc for as long as possible. But I wouldnt dare connect my ACs, Refrigerators, Electric kettles, irons etc.

I cant afford to install a higher capacity inverter.

Increase both the number of batteries and solar panels 6-10 times.
Education / Re: Good English: A Sign Of Education & Intelligence? by Abrantie: 12:17am On Apr 08, 2013
shymexx: Lmao... Good English is overrated as fvck hence why certain folks have embraced verbosity and stupidity just to impress less-intelligent people with their fvckery... Perhaps, that's why most people from my school of thought think intelligence itself is overrated, to be honest...

Mastery of the English language is about how direct and precise you're and, also your ability to be able to communicate and get your message across... Anything else is just utter tosh!!

What!?

Doesn't anyone get the point? It doesn't matter for squat that what Shymexx considers a fair shake, the rest of us consider a repressive, humiliating, culture-stripping experience. What's far more relevant is that I wouldn't waste my time trying to counteract the subtle but pervasive social message that says that the ancient Egyptians used psychic powers to build the pyramids if Shymexx's diegeses weren't parroted by so many impertinent draffsacks.

I urge you to read the text that follows carefully, keeping an open mind, from the beginning to the end, and without skipping around. I further recommend that you take breaks, as many of the facts presented will take time to digest.

Far too many people tolerate Shymexx's biases as long as they're presented in small, seemingly harmless doses. What these people fail to realize, however, is that we are at a crossroads. One road leads into the light of a bright, shining future in which treasonous, incompetent big-mouths like Shymexx are thoroughly absent. The other road leads into the darkness of larrikinism. The question, therefore, is: Who's driving the bus? The answer is almost absolutely obvious—this isn't rocket science, you know.

The key is that Shymexx claims to have donated a lot of money to charity over the past few years. I suspect that the nullibicity of those donations would become apparent if one were to audit Shymexx's books—unless, of course, "charity" includes Shymexx-run organizations that put a drossy spin on important issues. In that case, I'd say that Shymexx has been ruining people's lives.

How can he perpetrate such an outrage against public propriety and decency? I'll tell you what I think the answer is. I can't prove it, but if I'm correct, events soon will prove me right. I think that if he is going to talk about higher standards then he needs to live by those higher standards.

Because of Shymexx's obsession with moral relativism, he has not yet been successful at gagging free speech. Still, give him some time, and I'm sure he'll figure out how to do something at least that manipulative, probably more so. In any event, if I had to choose between chopping onions and helping Shymexx pilfer the national treasure, I'd be in the kitchen in an instant. Although both alternatives make me cry, the deciding factor for me is that I realize that some people may have trouble reading this letter.

Granted, not everyone knows what "thymolsulphonephthalein" means, but it's nevertheless easy to understand that I fully intend to tell the truth about Shymexx. I will spare no labor in doing this and reckon no labor lost that brings me toward this mark. Even so, some jejune schmucks are actually considering helping Shymexx use "pressure tactics"—that's a euphemism for "torture"—to coerce ordinary people into forcing women to live by restrictive standards not applicable to men. How quickly such people forget that they were lied to, made fun of, and ridiculed by Shymexx on numerous occasions.

That's all I have to say about Shymexx so I guess I'll stop writing now. Oh, and Shymexx: Before you start formulating a smart reply, don't bother because I'm just not interested. grin grin
