PoliticsRe: Guinness Nigeria Moves Headquarters To Ghana Amid Harsh Business Environment by dc23(m): 3:46pm On Mar 13, 2022
First it's important to note that there is DIAGIO which is GUINESS GHANA. GUINESS NIG PLC moving HQ to Ghana is simply to avoid high corporate taxes in Nigeria. It's even possible they the negotiated some tax exemption in Ghana.

This means they would only now be paying VAT on their sale of drinks to distributors. Very sensible move if u ask me.
Christianity EtcRe: 17-year-old Pakistani Boy Leads His Entire Tribe To Jesus by dc23(m): 1:53pm On Feb 20, 2022
Very strange. Is Jesus not the same prophet Issa in the Koran? How come he didn't already know Jesus?
HealthRe: How Do I Treat This Ailment/infection? Please Help. (photos). by dc23(m): 6:20pm On Feb 03, 2022
Its very treatable, but you need commitment. Use any anti fungal cream like FUNBACT A. You would need to use over months and stop having low cut hair. Its not really an infection, its just your hair unable to grow out and growing into skin. This causes irritation and once you scratch you worsen the situation
PoliticsRe: Ned Nwoko: Court Remands Jaruma In Suleja Prison by dc23(m): 8:29am On Jan 26, 2022
None of Ned's complaints are properly criminal in nature. The police have no business prosecuting this case. The judge is another slowpoke. He should have struck out the case and ask that civil processes are rather initiated.
TravelRe: UAE Stops International Airlines From Boarding Nigerian Passengers To Dubai by dc23(m): 4:27pm On Dec 13, 2021
The UAE would be the loser here. No inbound travel means less revenue for their businesses and resorts. On the other hand Nigeria gains when thieves can no longer travel to spend their loot. With European restrictions in place folks would be forced to vacation in Nigeria.
TravelRe: Air Peace Takes Delivery Of Fifth Brand New Embraer 195-E2 Aircraft (Photos) by dc23(m): 11:53pm On Dec 09, 2021
Doesn't make sense to buy a jet engine plane for use in Nigeria. A turbo fan plane makes more sense for fuel economy and safety considering his airline can't hire qualified line mechanics and engineers.
TravelRe: Ghanaian Schoolboy Caught In Airplane Engine Trying To Escape Abroad (Video) by dc23(m): 12:03pm On Dec 02, 2021
This isn't Ghana. Secondly it must be a regional airport where there is always little security, that small plane can't fly any sensible international route.
PoliticsRe: Super Tucano Aircraft Destroy ISWAP Armoury, Training Bases In Lake Chad by dc23(m): 4:57pm On Dec 01, 2021
I hope so, but don't believe it that much. Reason being a turbo fan aircraft would be heard from approaching giving the target enough time to scamper.

Secondly this plane can't pack enough bombs for a good bombing raid.

The only effective way to really bomb such targets is with silent drones or guided missile launches. These options would kill 90 percent of targets including commanders because they won't see or hear it coming.
CrimeRe: Witchcraft And Charms Are Illegal In Nigeria. Read What The Law Provides On Them by dc23(m): 10:21pm On Nov 27, 2021
If these articles are current and not repealed then they would still be of no effect because the Constitution which is the primary law would make nonsense of it in its letter and spirit.

The law was probably passed by a legislative batch which had a majority of morons as is typical here in Nigeria

Car TalkRe: Black Smoke From Exhaust. by dc23(m): 12:02pm On Sep 13, 2021
BLUE SMOKE means oil is burning, which also means engine compression is low.

BLACK SMOKE means fuel is not been burnt completely in engine, mostly because enough oxygen isn't getting into the fuel mix, check your air filter or turbo charger.

Ghanaian born Fulani Abu Dajuma who joined ISIS a decade ago has blown himself up in Mali wounding French troops and civillians.

More disturbing is his farewell video he made calling on his settler Fulani community to take up arms against our hosts in Ghana and replicate the chaos unfolding in northern Nigeria.

This is happening in Ghana too. From next month all SIM cards are to be re registered with the ECOWAS card and IMEI of phone registered or else the phone won't connect to any cellular network.

Maybe it's an ECOWAS security thing to tackle terrorism.

FashionRe: DPO Slaps Oyo Tailor, Charges Him To Court Over Poor Job by dc23(m): 7:51pm On Nov 04, 2020
The DPO may be misguided, but the magistrate is a big FOOL for even entertaining the case.

Which criminal law exactly was infracted? What is the basis of the alien charge?

I bet he granted the tailor bail so he can go read up on his sitting.

On another hand this case been entertained by the court suggests the DPO and the judge have some corrupt business allaince ongoing, so he is doing this to balance his IOU accounts

TravelRe: UAE May Reverse Visa Restriction On Nigerians Today Amid Airline’s Ban by dc23(m): 10:55pm On Sep 21, 2020
[color=#990000][/color] Very useless countermeasure. In the first place Nigeria is on a lot of no fly lists so if even the airline landed in Nigeria they won't be getting any approved customers. After all, much of the traffic is Nigerian.

The UAE ban effectively limited the business of any carrier flying that corridor.

I have a feeling this accident was staged by the APC side to create a bad impression of the governor. The police are just collateral damage. No sensible assasin would ram a convoy from behind knowing the target is not the last car.

rusher14:
Kasapreko was imported from Ghana.
I know.

And they are shipping now in addition to the factory they are developing in Nigeria.

My point really is Nigeria doesn't consume much from Ghana. Rather Nigerians buy cheaper priced products for sale in Ghana.

At the end of the day all of us are actually net importers from EU and China.
PoliticsRe: ECOWAS New Currency - Compare Ghana's Response To Nigeria's Response by dc23(m): 12:07pm On Dec 31, 2019
Essentially the decision to rename the CFA, Eco is to publicise the proposed currency and create a groundswell of support from ordinary people.

Yes, the CFA/Eco is still central banked in France, nothing has changed. What the francophone nations and Ghana are waiting for is the setting up of an Ecowas central bank. You would realise that Nigeria headquarters the group and currently chairs it. The current administraton is dragging it's feet, but in time there is every intention to sideline Abuja and make progress as was done in the Africa Free Trade Agreement signed recently.

Nigeria may be the most populous in Ecowas, but definitely not bigger that the collective union. A quick study in light of AFTA would show that Nigeria numbers pale in comparison to Cairo and three other capitals.

Now, to address, the politics of importation. Could you pause and think, before the border closure, WHAT EVER DID YOU BUY THAT WAS MADE IN GHANA, BENIN, TOGO or Mali? I suppose the answer is nothing. The reason us simple the multinationals like Guiness, Unilever, Cadbury and Nestle have factories in every country anyway and produce locally.

Closing the border only affects ordinary peasant businessmen importing or exporting traditional food stuffs like coconut, ugu, crayfish etc. And more seriously Nigerians who do business in Ghana who import machine and auto parts from Lagos to stock their shops. Indeed, many of them are very grateful that since Nigeria opened the border to exports only, Ghana and other nations didn't retaliate by refusing entry.

In conclusion, if you can't remember using a Ghana product before the closure, then it's not definitely not pinching anyone there.

Nigeria would definitely overcome this problem post Buhar administration when more educated and exposed leaders take the helm.

Happy New Year.
PoliticsRe: Ghana Begs Buhari To Open Closed Border by dc23(m): 10:48am On Nov 02, 2019
Majority of trade between these two countries is actually done by Nigerians. Nigerians bring auto goods to Ghana to sell and also buy cheap products in Ghana to resell in Nigeria so as not to loose value in exchange.

Now ask yourself, who smuggles goods through the designated border when there are lots of unapproved crossings? At the end of the day it's the legitimate ones who suffer, whilst smuggling booms.

Typically, Ghana and Nigeria actually get the bulk of the goods from China and Europe anyways. If Nigeria is really serious about local industry, the sea port might be a good place to shutter.
