Africaflavour: When we got there, and Davido saw me, he couldn't take his eyes off me. He looked at me for over 1 hour non-stop without saying a word. Then my friend and her boyfriend told us to...
Fajimarketplace: And this leads to the ultimate point, where you go doesn't determine wether you will succeed or not. Success only comes from value creation. People in Lagos or Abuja doing legitimate businesses can even be more wealthy than someone in those first world countries. It's all about value creation, wherever you may find yourself.
Here's someone who managed to escape from US and created YouTube advising others how to escape! This life sef
Fajimarketplace: Ghana is peaceful and all but Nigeria is way better. I have great friends from my short vacations in Labone and Osu, however our high brow areas will easily dust theirs.
I'm not saying this as a competition thing, but seeing that people read posts like these and fantasize about a land flowing with milk and honey, it's necessary to enlighten the thread readers.
The port Harcourt OP is even coming from is way better than a lot of places in Accra, not to talk of Lagos and Abuja. We have better infrastructure too.
As per the light, our light in Nigeria (most parts) has greatly improved and is similar now to what you will obtain in Accra (if you factor in "Dumsor" or load shedding).
If you leave Accra and head to places like Kumasi and other sub regions, then you will understand that Nigeria is light years ahead of a lot of these African countries.
In summary, Ghana is a lovely country. Only go there if you have legitimate business being there. A lot of people go to foreign countries and end up in crime due to frustrations of not being able to secure a job or find something doing. Plan well before making life changing decisions you might end up regretting.
What Nigeria need is a bit of leadership and you will see that we can only be compared to just one or two countries in Africa. If you must leave Nigeria, head only to the UK, Canada, US, Australia and maybe Germany.
How about if you're in UK, Canada, US, Australia and maybe Germany and you are just tired, where would you advise the person to go?
chudez0147: Oga be calming down. You won’t tell us when you run back to Nigeria. Lol
Up till now some Ghanaians wish to visit Nigeria and you are super excited because you traveled to Ghana by road. What would happen if you now visit South Africa? Not to worry very soon Ghanaians will start calling you kwasia
chudez0147: He said the roads are so good . Oga leave that thing. If you want to leave Nigeria to other African countries try Moroco , Egypt, South Africa or Mouricious
Hiw about Kenya and Rwanda? Even Cotedevoir Problem is, those places are far. Ghana, you can travel by road
kaltonga: This is a sane country runner without the Fulanis and the Yoruba who are only good at liquidating a country..I stayed in Ghana for seven years, some Nigerians there so well while some carry out criminal activities especially the Yorubas and the Igbos.
But Yorubas and Igbos make up Nigeria. Who else is there?
Konquest: He was definitely describing the Ghana BEFORE the "Nigeria Must Go" protests in several Ghanaian cities over the crimes committed by people largely from a specific part of Nigeria based on the full names of those publish by the Ghana Police.
Can you give us a small hint what part of Nigeria those people are from
Konquest: My FIRST time on Ghana was in 1988 by air en route to the beautiful city of Abidjan in Cote D'Ivoire.
BUT in reality, Ghanains are very friendly until you offend them then they can be unforgiving. The recent protests against several well-documented crimes by foreigners from Nigeria in their country (through mass media reports with the full names of those arrested published by the Ghana Police) by and that illegal Eze Ibo guy parading himself around illegally using the HRM title were the final triggers for the protests by Ghanains.
Credible information reaching me is that some Ghananian landlords are refusing to rent houses to specific people from Nigeria due to those crimes committed in their country.
In any event, as long as you are documented legally in Ghana, then you are free to stay. The target is getting the illegal or undocumented Nigerians out of Ghana.
Has it occured to you that Ghana of 1988 was much better than Ghana of today - just like Nigeria
Bar1941: My friend, the Ghana people read in the news is the real Ghana. The one you are talking about is not real but I pray you never see the real one.
Many Ghanians are unnecessarily bitter towards Nigerians and they are full of hypocrisy.
DrTee1: This is one of those times that Nairaland can mislead.
When I read the OP describe the treatment of Nigerians in Ghana, by Ghanaians as cozy, I was wondering if there was a different country from that which I was...
Now you guys know what it feels like to be in UK or US struggling to keep head above water and someone in Nigeria is describing it as heaven full of easy money and loose women!
Rexymania: It's because your have someone in Ghana, that was the reason you were able to buy suya 2k. If to say you no get anybody for there, body for tell you. Anyway, thank God for journey mercies
Can someone tell me where this "journey mercy" saying came from and how it makes sense. It's an annoying term to me
Bar1941: My friend, the Ghana people read in the news is the real Ghana. The one you are talking about is not real but I pray you never see the real one.
Many Ghanians are unnecessarily bitter towards Nigerians and they are full of hypocrisy.
"Many Ghanians are unnecessarily bitter towards Nigerians"
If na you nko? Where do you think the "Ghana-must-go" bag came from.
Also imagine how many people still like you because you didn't have a chance to give your doppy side of the story - which would have removed all doubt about what they heard!
eepeepook: It’s really scary to realize that women cannot handle the responsibility of catering for a lover. Sad.
Tenrack: very selfish creatures...and they'll still justify it.
Qatar2022: Very stupid people with their low mentality, men run away from this kind of woman, they're destiny destroyers
VinnyBaba: Dat's our African/Nigerian mentality for Female folks.
Dat's why I pity struggling young Guys who get married and claim 'My wife will support me'.
KingDashx: Only a simp will love a woman like Tiwa
Sabadon: this is the reason most successful Nigerian guys go for foreign ladies, just imagine the mentality of an average Nigerian lady, despite her social status,fame and wealth. Ojujokoro
Wow! You're a very observant guy. I didn't even notice. And I don't think hardly anybody noticed. What a smart guy you are indeed! (Maybe I didn't notice because I am totally detribalised)
