vaxx2:
when nigeria can meet the neds of lagos state alone then we shall talk again . you don't become productive by been a protectionist, you become productive with planning and effort. Nigeria should start form infrastructure first....


I am sure you highly don't know it is the same IMF structural adjustment program Egypt is presently following and that is making the economy booming as at now .....

he doesnt know

Area4Area:
Yet you went telling us 80%, your article talked about your future production and not even today, no total consumption and you're already telling us about 80%, how did you come about the figure?

my articule talked about the current production of Ghana which stands at almost 800,000 metric tonnes as at today

StaffofOrayan:
Enough of the Liberal BS.
The Ports are open for business!
Soon Nigeria would meet the needs of West Africa.
Africa produces the raw materials that keeps the world moving, it's time we realize that.
Francophone countries need to move away from France as fast as possible, a country that keeps your central bank in its country still giving you economic advise,

This is obvious to anyone with brains
Stop quoting those IMF/World Bank journals that were set up by colonizers and were made to protect Europe!

Imagine China following IMF structural adjustment program where would you think it would by now ?

why do you think the IMF have moved it HQ to China

what is 750,000 metric tonnes out of one million ?

doffman:
You must be stupid and foolish to use Nigerian platform to abuse my president . You lack home training self.
It is the same president that is teaching you people lesson of your life now.

No doubt, you are pained already.. Border closure
will continue so that your pain will be extended.

or you are more STUPID for not using your forum to address your numerous problems but spend all the time
talking about Ghana.

Area4Area:
......and Nigeria is not locking up about a 100 shops owned by foreigners, aren't all of us smart?

hateful animal
full of xenophobia

Area4Area:
A link to where it was reported that Ghana produces 80% of the rice consumed there

https://www.businessghana.com/site/news/general/194744/Rice-production-in-Ghana-to-reach-750-000

help yourself out
Ghana consumes a little over one million metric tonnes per annum

Kapilta:
totally true, i saw how well trained they are in the last election where your lawmaker was slapped and people killed by your swat or whatever you called them that your president had to constitute a nuisance panel which yield no result at the end. I laugh in ewe.

And which shops are you talking about? Well, let me leave you to live in your bruised overbloated ego for a while, the reality remains, ghanaians won't do anything, our shops will aways be opened and our border remain closed till 2020. Hug a transformer if you don't like.

no Ghanaian was ever killed for election-related stuff

and yes, the MP deserved a slap and that is why he got it

edoairways:
What do they go through? Most Nigerians love Africans more than themselves

The denial of permits just to get bribes
the bureaucracy
the hate

Kapilta:
i see how all you intellects built your tetiaty institutions and made them best in Africa.

Such a cretin, your university ghana which is the best in your country couldn't even make it to top 1,000 in the world and not even top 20 in Africa, always at the bottom draging with gambia/djibouti schools them.

which school in your dustbin of a country can you compare to UG

UG remains the best university in West Africa

https://www.businessghana.com/site/news/business/167665/Ghana-imports-over-US1-162-billion-worth-of-rice-annually-Minister

There is a reason the Ministry of Agriculture wants to limit import by 50%, it is embarrassing to be honest, imagine importing Turkey and Chicken when unemployment is souring, the irony is it is classified as fresh food

Ghana can limit rice import because we already produce 80% of the rice we consume
and Ghana rice import is just 300 million dollars for a little over 300,000 metric tonnes of rice to offset the shortfall of local production.


GHANA CAN IMPORT ALL THE MEAT IT WANT AS LONG AS WE DONT REAR ANIMALS

StaffofOrayan:
https://www.graphic.com.gh/business/business-news/food-imports-cost-us-2-4bn-annually.html
The Minister of Finance, Mr Ken Ofori-Atta, has revealed that food imports cost the nation an average of US$2.4 billion every year.
This means that about GH¢10.8 billion (one dollar to GH¢4.5) is used to import rice, sugar, sorghum, frozen chicken and meat, among other food items, for domestic and industrial consumption on annual basis.

“It is almost not about the people importing; it is about us agreeing that there will be some shortfalls for the next three, four or five years as we ramp up our production,” he said.

https://www.myjoyonline.com/business/2019/March-20th/ghana-to-end-tomato-imports-cut-rice-imports-by-50-in-2019.php
Ministry of Food and Agriculture says it is looking to cut down imports of rice by 50 per cent as well as end the importation of tomato this year.

https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/dfe2/9277124485ad3fea16a7a26f2cc416e21a00.pdf
To meet the supply deficit, Ghana imports about 70% of its rice consumption requirement from Asia

I really don't understand why Ghanaians are ranting and angry about Nigeria doing what other nations including theirs have done, and are doing,

except Ghana is not getting other people goods locked up at the border

We have smart ways of solving our problems

surplusk:
See who is talking of smuggling mtwew
Ghanaian do smuggled goods to Nigeria too there are more illegal items which were already banned for import some illegal Ghanaian migrant were busy making it way to Lagos.

Only unproductive and uncompetitive countries create import ban lists
No Ghanaian will smuggle anything from Ghana into Nigeria because that person will not be able to sell it.

cost factor.

all developed countries embraced capitalism to develop

socialism and communism has never worked anywhere

Socialism and communism have worked bigly for a lot of countries until other countries start to fight the system to alienate the countries that practise it

Area4Area:
Lol.
Our economy is leeching on others but presidents of Ghana, Niger, Benin and their ministers from Ghana and Togo have been begging for a border reopening.
Ghana and Ghanaians being the worst beggars the world had ever known still begging for a trade corridor as if she's in a war.

We all know your president does not have sense

It's not bad for him to be taught

Area4Area:
You were sounding as if the protest happened last week, why not wait till after it happens before you throw a party

i learnt they are planning another one
to put pressure on your dumb president

Litmus:
Ghana mentality: tell the biggest lies you can then believe in it in order to make others believe. This is how they have managed to steal much of Nigeria’s heritage and sell it to the world as theirs.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZObaDNdSOs

Don’t for one moment believe the dwarf in the vid is just being cheeky. It starts with lies with Ghanaians and creeps into truth in their delusional heads which they then sell to the world when Nigerians are not paying attention. The other day, some of them were trying to claim the name Jamaica originates with a Ghanaian GA word or some such nonsense.

you dont deserve my time


Nigeria has a heritage

Kapilta:
cry me a river, your police are even here protecting our shops for free, if them born you well, carry your padlock come and say you want to lock one shop and see your own policeman blow up your head in your own country. You can even come with just30

Nigeria border remained closed till 2020 and our shops are all opened with police securing us and our shops for free, now go and hang yourself.

Let's hope frustration will not kill you before 2020.

who cares

as long as youre the one starving and keeping your poverty within.


the shops will remain close, In Ghana, policemen are not allowed to use their weapons.
They are better trained and not like SARS

Kapilta:
you mean the way we lost more during the 'Ghana must go'?

yes

your educational system became thrash afterwards

and Ghana gained her intellectuals back

Kapilta:
who would have thought your forefathers will passed on the 'ghana must go' experience to unborn generations?

guy youre crazy

go look for your next food to eat

Area4Area:
Our problems are not yours or are they?
We know our problems which are the leeching ECOWAS countries and we are dealing with them.

Your economy is leaching on the economy of other west african countries

and your border closure is a blessing to those countries


the only problem is, you decided to be the usual dumb neighbour
when you decided not to tell anyone you were closing your border.


by so doing
you're dealing with yourselves.

i hope you guys will stop the smuggling activities
