For most folks like you, you do not value what you have until you lose it. Thank God for President Muhammadu Buhari. May God bless him and bless Nigeria.

That is why we do not take our successes in Lagos for granted. We Lagosians suffered more than the rest of the country prior to 1999 and it was that our resolve never to allow that kind of suffering happen again in our land that has kept us on our toes in Lagos since 1999 when the amazingly talented Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu took over the rein from Col. Buba Marwa.

Today, our economy in Lagos is bigger than the economy of the whole of Ghana. Amongst our many feats in Lagos is the Lekki deep seaport, conceived 13 years ago by Asiwaju Tinubu, that recieved its first cargo ship this week. This deep seaport is the first in Nigeria and the best in West Africa.
You can draw inspiration from our success story in Lagos

If you are suffering in Nigeria now, it is because you have been outcompeted. You probably waste your time online and on social media.

While you stay online and lament, other young focused ambitious Nigerians are competing for the same opportunities you seek.

Those eventual winners do not have time for nairaland and the social media. They do not even have time for pity or lamentation party.

That you do not know how terrible and worse the Ghaniaians case is alone says a lot about how conversant you are about their state yet very quick to disparage my Fatherland.

Ghana redenominated their old cedis in 2007 by knocking off four zeros and between then and now their new cedis has lost value by over ten times such that one new cedi is an equivalent of 100K old cedis or more!

Thankfully, my late President Yardua stopped Prof. Soludo from that dangerous experiment of redenominating the naira and today naira has not been redenominated. My N100K in 2017 is not today worth N1 or less. I thank God and late HE Yardua for stopping Soludo.

Ghana was one of the countries that the IMF and others cancelled their debts completely unlike Nigeria that had to pay about $18 billion during the Pa Obj era yet today, Ghana is back in so much debt even more than it was before her debts were forgiven.

Between 2020 and last year, it was so bad for Ghana that they ran out of forex and had to be bailed out by IMF with $1 billion and Ghana is not yet out of the woods. Last Ghana inflation number was approximately 50% and still not abating amidst high unemployment and scarcity of goods and foods.


Their Ghana stock exchange is nothing to write home about yet this year 2022 alone, our own Nigeria Stock exchange has broken and exceeded the record it last reached before the 2018 global meltdown, printing money for local investors and one of the best in the world so far https://nairametrics.com/2022/07/03/nigerian-stock-market-end-first-half-of-2022-as-one-of-the-best-in-the-world/

Thank God that CBN under Emefiele blocked the useless fraudulent cryto ponzi, the favorite 'food' of lazy and gullible Nigerian youths, may be by now the fraudsters behind crypto and nfts would have killed the naira and most of the "greater fool" liquidated 80K crypto millionaires would have come from Nigeria!

Ghana struggles to pay us for the energy we export to them and when we closed our border, Ghana was on her knees economically and politically while their effort at frustrating some of our nationals in Ghana also backfired.

Ghana has a bizarre and very primitive business system that forbids a foreigner from registering a business and owning a company in their small country unlike Nigeria where CAC is very liberal.
Watch how many of them will get to Nigeria now and start their own businesses yet we do not discriminate against them. Nigeria is a big brother to Ghana and we have always bailed them out.

Ghanaians are in soup but thank God they have a big brother and a second home in Nigeria. The original and current traditional landowners in their capital are ethnic Yoruba who migrated to Ghana from Ile Ife like a century ago and they have since traced back their origin to Ile Ife where Ooni assured them that they will always be welcomed back home.

So while the Yoruba in Nigeria are doing well there are things the descendants of Yoruba in Ghana are not doing well but can always rediscover and get back on their feet.

Nigeria is a safe haven for Ghanaians and Nigeria is far far ahead of Ghana.

It will be idiotic for the boy not to do what he did.
Most visas to developed countries are denied because applicants are unable to show evidence that they will return to Nigeria. They know say most wey escape Nigeria no want come back voluntarily. So boy wey leave Lagos touch UK na him they want send back and expect a smooth sail?

I can assure you that a Nigerian hospital ran the tests and told Ike Ekweremadu that the boy is a match. The dog eat dog life they live in Nigeria probably made the hospital collect their money, write one nonsense lab result give Ekweremadu. Wetin concern them? Ever heard of fake covid results emanating from Nigeria? UK gets millions of visitors from Nigeria annually. They know Nigeria more than Nigerians.

If the boy is not a minor, it doesn't clear the Ekweremadus. There are still many legal hoops to jump. The prosecutors are the ones holding the aces.

If they like, let them print his DNA too. An aggressive prosecutor can argue that just like the way he got the boy to UK, the Ekweremadus are leveraging on their power in Nigeria to secure those documents which could be falsified going by the level of forgery and corruption that Nigeria is notorious for. The fact is : Nigeria is happening to Ike Ekweremadu right now. Hopefully they won't use him as a scape goat.

They are glad this case is not in a highly litigious country like US. If it were to be, the boy can still file civil lawsuit against the Ekweremadus seeking millions of dollars in damages even if they get acquitted and discharged.

GloriousGbola:
The poverty leaders like ekeremadu inflicted on this society is why Nigeriana cannot see anything wrong with their exploitation.

So many people here are willing to serve as spare parts for a corrupt political elite who made them poor and desperate

Unfortunately for ekeremadu, he chose to pull off his nonsense in a nation that assigns value to every human being, not just the wealthy elite

He can pull all the stunts, bribe all the bloggers, get support from all the impoverished citizenry, but he is not getting away with this.

Fahdiga:
Whatever that is the outcome of this case, Ike Ekweremadu has ruined his reputation.

Are his members all richer than he is or something?
