there are only 200,000 Ghanaians in Nigeria compare to the 5 million nigerians here in Ghana

Links please

obidark:
and then what....??

About $1-2 billion our students add to their economy dries out.

Just30:
The current Ghanaian presidents relative was the who sacked Nigerians with the Alien Compliance Act

Dont try him, he will send 5 million Nigerians packing

Send 20 million Nigerians back and we'd outline the final finishing, we no dey beg.
This is the moment most Nigerians have been waiting for

Just30:
it took 15 years for that to happened


The naira it entire value in 2 months, even when it is not a freely floating currency

We have discussed this with links so stop repeating your lies,
From 2007, your cedi depreciated from 0.92 to 5.53 in 2019 to US dollar.
Naira from 120 to 360 to a US dollar.

Where is the two months you are busy lying about?

FuckedUppedNess:
Ma guy. The truth is that Ghana is a better place than Nigeria, in all ramifications I am not talking in abstracts the figures support me by the way, what is the salary of a nigerian police constable? do you know how much a police constable is paid in Ghana?

....you are begging Nigeria to open her borders? We ain't that silly any longer, the more hate you show against us, the more you attract more Nigerians to stand with the government

FuckedUppedNess:
Nigerians are damn fvcking hypocrites. I am sure you know that,right? You closed your borders, Ghanaians are asking you to leave their markets. Isn’t that a fair outcome? Why are you nigerians grumbling that Ghanaians are closing your shops in Ghana? Fuckeduppedness this is just the beginning. Nonsense!

Stop blackmailing most Nigerians, we had dared Ghanaians to do their worse which is closing up shops, we would teach you guys more lessons for daring.

Just30:
this level of thinking is the reason why you are poor

now who's economy is heading into recession

By 1st quarter next year, we'd know the countries headed for recession and those that are expanding

Just30:
bring it on and we will send 5 million nigerians back to the shithole

Send 20 million back and our population and economy can absorb them.

Just30:
actually 1300 cedis is almost 130,000 naira and that is the salary of an entry level GES teacher

Are you sure, 65.43 naira to a cedi?

Just30:

At the rate of 65.43 naira to a cedi today?

codedguy1:
Parochial narrow minded youths will also not know that Nigeria really has no comparative advantage in production of rice. We will still need yo import about 50% of rice even when we produce, or do you think rice can be planted all over Nigeria because it is big.

There are other products we have comparative advantage of and we are not talking about them or even trying yo take advantage of the advantage we have. Cassava, cashew, millet, Cocoa, sesame seed, Sorghum, even yam etc are products we can use to earn huge foreign exchange but because we CONSUME rice that we don't really produce then we can close border for it.

Closed border, even those that want to export/import other products are caught up and its only rice we talking about.

It remains shut so you can do your worst, we don't care about Ghanaians and smugglers

codedguy1:
I hope when the border is eventually opened it would not be business as usual. Rice that is now 28k will not come down or probably come down to 16k which was what it was before the closure and all we would have achieved was to just punish ourselves.

As the borders have been closed what has been the measures taken to help sustain ourselves as a nation?

Useless govt, always doing the right things the wrong way and then complicating the already dire situation for ordinary citizens because of lack of clear cut assessment of the situation by incompetent people who lack capacity to think through a situation or scenario thoroughly.

Hope the only thing we will gain in all this is not the self bloated ego that when we closed our borders neighbouring countries were adversely affected.

By their posts, you shall know smugglers

nanakgh:
Another thread for 180 million people to masturbate on. Not some technological innovation, or some breakthrough in science but a mere border closure.

A situation that requires tact to fish out the main culprits and u simply make a decision that encompasses all, even the innocent. It's only in black Africa that this calls for celebration, especially if there's nothing else to celebrate. SMH.

Ghanaians must continue to cry

sonature1:
How old are you?

On Nairaland, you guys send a wrong signal of who Igbos are.

What is wrong with you people? Has tribalism eroded your senses of gratitude and appreciation?

For every Kobo injected into a business, the businessman is grateful. Go and see how appreciative Innoson is because the army is buying his auto products.

Gini n'eme do unu na Nairaland?

Tufiakwa!

These kids on nairaland can be so upsetting, not as if they have anything to their names aside their chinko phones

vaxx2:
what I have been saying , industrialization is the way not agriculture practice like the days of Noah and mosses. You just don't declare you are capable of feeding the whole nation becuse one governor somewhere says he has acquired over 2000 hectares of land and prepared farmers to work on the rice plantation. what if all rice end up with pest destruction. Nigeria needs to think like a smart country, No one close border in 21 century except for war or disease alert .....


Nigeria make una think

See them advisers, instead of going to lecture the Ghanaian government about mechanised rice farming, you're still fixated on Nigeria opening her borders. Why can't you produce same rice and export to Nigeria since maybe you already have excess rice and mechanised rice farming?

So OP you know about this but you go shouting about secession and Biafra when all that you stated above are required too.

Thank God you have started making researches as I've advised you earlier.

Larryomooba:
They should just tell us they close the border for dangote.

I guess olams, coscharis, josan and other rice mills already producing rice are all owned by dangote?
Some of you just post because others are posting.

uncle005:
I don' know what this Ghanian are doing in this forum?

Mod please do the needful, they should look for their forum and contribute.

Please leave our cross for us to carry ok.

They've been so bitter since the border closure and crying all day

wirinet:
You still do not get it, probably you don't understand economics or you are not a business man. Even if you are a businessman, you are probably a trader.

Machines are very expensive and require huge capital investments. My friend that into rice processing tells me he needs a rice sorter to separate the coloured rice from the white ones, as pure white rice has high value. He said the machine alone cost N8 million from Europe. Now if he borrows N8 million from bank at 25%, how can he pay back principal and interest if he has to contend with cheap smuggled rice?

Accessing government loans is a herculean task and government only provide loans for small scale farmers. Rice processing machines are extremely expensive. The full rice processing machines like boiler, dehusking machine, dryer, destoning machine, polishing machine and sorting machine costs tens of millions each.

In manufacturing and productions, recouping of investment and repayment of loans in the short possible time is the goal. After that goal have been met, the manufacturer reduce price to only reflect running and maintenance costs.

If cheap foreign alternative is available, local industries can never take off. China itself banned imports for 40 years to allow local manufacturers to germinate and expand, even now China strictly regulates imports. (This is one of the beef Trump has with china).

Allow that my Ghanaian friend be, he's not been happy since the closure and always trying to lecture Nigeria and Nigerians, why can't he be lecturing his home country about mechanised rice farming?

Michealsinzo:
They always write what can’t be accomplished, almost 6 years now, all I have witness is budget signing, budget signing and no single physical change, this is the first time in my life I have witness such method of governance,, APC...you guys has really taught us a lesson that will break record...

16 years of PDP and what did we gain?

ArmaniUhuru:
Even if Gej had turned Bayelsa to Paris, una for still complain. The man name no dey tire una to call?

He would've made it a Paris and you wait for people to complain

[quote author=Clonus post=83780267][/quote]The FG increased tariffs in order to encourage farmers to produce more and equally encourage more people to go into farming so that we can be self sufficient with time.

These leeching ECOWAS countries are not interested in that, they prefer the billions they make to our being self sufficient.

omenka:
Typical gibberish from your kind. I'm sure the hundreds he killed vanished after you woke up from your dream.

You have the worst roads? I thought jonathan built roads comparable to those in the streets of heaven in your place.

You guys have NOTHING on that man. You hatred only stems from his defeat of your preferred candidate and ever since you just cant seem to shake off the hurt.

Nonsense.

Good bye.

Gbammest!!

They were all born to hate and nothing more

Techno Oil has been operating before this administration, they own filling stations across Nigeria, they are into manufacturing of oil lubricant, they just open cylinder manufacturing plant

Why was the government not patronising the company before now?

Smithkafors:
You guys are evil,a company that has been in operation for years all of a sudden u are bringing buhari into it.Was it buhari that gave them money to start the company?
For your information,no one is begging government to come and patronize them, government can go outside the country and buy.It will not make the company not to prosper.The government doesn't have any choice,if the company is producing a quality product and well known,the government doesn't have any choice than to buy from them like every other Nigerians are buying.Dont sound as if buhari is doing them a favor!.With or without government,it doesn't change nada.Obi family is not a hungry family,rather they are creating employment for government and Nigerian citizens not the other way round.

I don't blame you because you are not the owner of the company and neither do you work there, companies and factories all over the world lobby for government patronage and see what you're saying.
If the government had gone for imported, people like you would cry marginalization, government decides to patronise, no appreciation.

Good enough the owner of the company doesn't reason the way you do

meccuno:
my Urohbo friend is always reminding me how Delta State belongs to them. He hates APC and Yoruba people but says he wouldn't mind his people joining APC just to remove Okowa who is an Igbo man. Sometimes I laugh at those Igbos who deny their heritage just for a plate of porridge. In Delta,the other tribes refer to the Anioma people as Igbos. In Rivers,the Ijaws call the ikwerris Igbo people. When their eyes will be open it would be so clear that they would start seeing ghosts.

Land grabbers, are you from Rivers or Delta state?

jimyjames:
So what's your point? Or didn't you read the part I said the igbos in Delta want a separate state of their own, anioma state?

Let them have their state first and refer to themselves what they feel like, not your business

nick50:
This is Mai-Adua border, I know the town very well, because I worked in Mai-Adua Technical college as a contractor under Gaskiya Welding and Fabrication works, so I know Mai-Adua town very well.

Mai-Adua is not too far from Daura Buhari's home town, infact people use to take bicycle from Daura to Mai-Adua, because it is not too far, some times because many of our people has not been to the core north, when we try to tell them that Nigeria is not one, they find it difficult to believe.

Look at this picture, is it possible for we the Yorubas, Igbos, to line up like this from Benin Republic, or Abijan to Nigeria? We all know that it is not possible, because the Cabal Custom will kill almost all the Okada riders.

But look at these, this is Mai-Adua a neighbouring town of Daura, Buhari's home town, in Mai-Adua's merket they spend two types of money (currency) Nigerian's currency, and Niger's currency.

But here in the Souths, we all know that something like that is never possible, because we are under the siege of our slave masters from a very long time, the unfortunate thing is that most of my Yoruba brothers and sisters don't want to be free, some because of Religion, some because of Politics, some because of the fear of the Oligashi, the strange Cabals.

If the terrorists family goverment tells you that they are closing borders, you should know that it is the borders in the Souths, the borders are, (1) Idiroko/Seme borders in Lagos state, (2) Cross Rivers State, (3) Chikanda border, Kwara State, (4) Shaki border, Oyo State, (5) Borders in Ogun State.

This are the borders they mounts presures on to make the none-terrorists poor, so that terrorists from the northern part of Nigeria can be more richer than us, and the reason for this is to take over Nigeria systematically, because they know that a poor tribe have no say in the presence of the rich tribe.

Though many of our southern leader fail to understand that if most of your people are poor, one day it will surely affect you, most of Yoruba and Igbo politicians, fail to understand that the person that use you to oppress your people today, will come for you one day, it is just a matter of time. The enemies of your tribe will come your your head, after they have use you to destroy yourself unknowingly.

I pray that God will help most Nigerians to understand my long time warnings, before it will be too late for us to act. God bless all those that are fighting for freedom in Jesus Mighty Name.

Picture that has been in circulation before the border closure, give us a current picture of same place

joeyfire:
I'm not aware that Ironsi ever got any notice of Araba (secession) from the north, talkless of resisting it. Pls share any links or sources. I've never heard of this before

The Araba protests started on may 29 1966 and Ironsi assassinated on 29 July 1966, who was still the military head of state within those two months?

History revisionist everywhere you go.

joeyfire:
Ask Gowon and the InvestIgation Panel why they did not submit the report to Ironsi and the military council. Also ask Gowon why a white paper was never released. Read my previous posts for more info on this.

Besides .....the Nzeogwu coup involved hundreds of elite military men and dozens of officers representing every region that struck all over the country, killed most of the leadership and destroyed the government. Do you understand the complexity of such an investigation?

You cannot compare such to Isaac Boro and three or four men blowing up pipelines and attacking police stations in a few towns inside present day Bayelsa. (Two hour drive).

Ironsi as the military head of head could have been delaying the reports and reason why the second coup happened and he was killed, Isaac Boro had over a 100 of his men and supporters killed.

SarkinYarki:
I don't understand you shallow Buharists , what is the customs service at borders meant for ? Are you saying West African countries should come a manage you border vigilance for you? We're borders and customs service not created in the first place to detect and stop illegal goods from coming into the country ? My friend the borders have always been closed to illegal goods and smugglers right from the day they were created so this Buhari closure is only affecting legit exporters and importers

Borders remain closed till others start behaving according to the pact they signed up to

able20:
You talk too much. The Op referring to folks within a country and you are talking about German language and culture in Swiss and Poland.
Did the Op say igbo Ghana or igbo Togo.

Doesn't matter if in the same country or not, what matters is what the people want to refer to themselves and how they want others to see them and refer to them.
Rivers Igbo, Delta Igbo should be left to them and not you to tell them.
It is not up to you to decide for them, you decide for yourself alone.
