They are lucky they are not in West Africa. They should ask Ghana.

Ask Ghana what?

Astark:
Wow didn't even know the meaning of kenya . I think this Kenya country is using Nigeria to gain popularity worldwide like how Ghana did theirs

I dont know the kind of delusional world you Nigerians live in

But Ghana has always been known worldwide more than your nigeria

You guys just like to tag along to ride on people

samorobo:
Okay it's because of the mps tema expansion right..Anyway we are expecting ours this year and even more to come in 2021 & 2023 ..

until then

samorobo:
As it stated " due to traffic congestion "...it's a good thing that apapa road is beginning to get itself to order..so so technically yours became 0.95 while ours reduce to 0.92 last year.

What you dont know is , since then
Our ports have become more efficient. Now, you can clear your goods in less than 48hours .

Obascoetubi:
You're a liar!

if you didnt write the article , then you googled it


Anyway, go and ask buhari where he put the money cos Ghana does not owe your country.

In fact, your gas suppliers are paying 10 million dollars in damages each time they fail to supply 120M SCF per day

Johnsghana:
.

Let me tell you, we are all not the same. Some of us deal in facts and are knowledgeable enough to know ask for evidence when claims are being thrown around.

BTW, are you a Ghanaian? Cos if you are that would explain why you keep trying to detract this conversation into frivolities and insults.

Are you incapable of having addressing issues without unrelated innuendos and unnecessary dereliction of reasoning?

FYI: If you click on my profile you will see from my previous comment that my objectivity is not blinded by nationalism. I have called out my fellow Nigerians when they misbehave in Ghana.

In law, the burden of proof in on the accuser or claimant. I have supported my own claims with evidence, please be forthright enough to provide evidence that suggests that Ghana does not owe Nigeria gas money. If not, I plead with you still

since you cant find it
The government’s indebtedness to the power sector entities is further compounding the already distressed entities.

For example, government is indebted to Karpower to the tune of US$150million, ENI US$160million, NEDCo US$162million, IPPs US$1billion, GRIDCo US$171million and Ghana Gas US$735million.


Those are the companies that Ghana owes



These are the debt of the company that buys Nigeria gas
https://www.pulse.com.gh/bi/finance/the-volta-river-authority-is-liable-for-98-of-ghana-gas-debt-stock-according-to-2018/cwsmeht

The report indicated that the VRA owes Ghana Gas over $200 million as at the end of last year. The development is impacting on the operations of the company.

Portions of the 2018 report said “The Volta River Authority’s (VRA) indebtedness to GNGC amounted to US$222,427,108.43 in the period under review. This represents 98.99 percent of the total debt owed GNGC by its off-takers. The debt, as shown in Table 43, keeps mounting due to VRA’s inability to meet its debt service obligation.”


The report also admitted that the VRA is unable to pay its debt because other operators within the power supply chain (the Ghana Grid Company and the Electricity Company of Ghana) owe the authority.

Meanwhile, the Ghana Gas Company also owes the Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC) to the tune of $315.5 million.


This has been as a result of accumulated debts spanning 2016 to 2018.

PIAC’s report indicated that between 2014 and 2018, the value of total gas supplied reached $325.4 million.

However, Ghana Gas has so far paid about 3% of the entire debt. Payments of which were made in 2014 and 2015.

“The value of total gas supplied by GNPC to GNGC from 2014 to June 2018 is US$325,386,630.54, out of which GNGC has made two payments (one in 2014, and the other in 2015) amounting to US$9,856,621.67. This leaves an outstanding balance of US$315,530,008.87,” PIAC said in its findings.

I don't think there as ever been any port in ghana that has been bigger and better than apapa port .Do know lagos is expecting a new deepseaport this year

samorobo:
I don't think there as ever been any port in ghana that has been bigger and better than apapa port .Do know lagos is expecting a new deepseaport this year

Tema port has been better than all the ports in Nigeria .


Let hope you are referring to better in the sense that I know it.

Obascoetubi:
i don't google it to know that your government owed us.

anyway you're a waste of time

I guess you wrote the article yourself ... haa?

Jonraid:
In other words,I wanted to know the cargo capacity your ports handled,I'm not so much into the overall port capacity! To say that a port can handle 3M TEUs but it's only handling cargo of about 2.5M TEUs per annum!

"West African ports now have to adapt to handle this increase in vessel-size, or risk losing their relevance in the area. Already, over a dozen West African outlets can or will be able to accept vessels larger than 10,000 TEU. And yet Nigeria lags behind, peaking at ships of 4,600 TEU. As well as the liner trade structure, carriers involved annual trade capacity analyses and the supporting port and terminal developments."

Dynamar, reported that Nigeria's Apapa Port in Lagos (1 million TEUs) lost 30 per cent of its container traffic over five years due to chronic congestion and the poor quality of its services. Tema Port in Ghana with 0.95 million TEUs ranks 2nd, Nigeria is 3rd with 0.92 million TEUs, followed by Abidjan (0.66 million) TEUs 4th and Dakar (0.57 million) TEUs as 5th.

Jonraid:
What are your current TEUs per annum?

terminal and 2 has 870,000 TEU

Terminal 3 has 1M TEU soon to increase to 2M TEU

[quote author=AskiaHarem post=80587587][/quote]The new terminal is scheduled to start operations on 28 June with two berths, 600 m long, plus a small tugboat berth, with a capacity of 1m TEUs per year. MPS also plans a third berth – at 1,100m long – for the end of the first quarter of 2020 and a fourth berth – at 1,400m – at the end of 2020. The terminal will then be able to process more than 2m TEUs per year.

2 million TEU in Tema

Even Lo'me port and COtonuo ports are not kids let alone Abidjan

bigpicture001:
Which qualities...aside police...naida is better than Ghana in all ramifications

im laughing hard

like i said

this illusion is grandiose

AskiaHarem:
Becuase there dead waters with little to no type of activity.

yet they have the largest ports in West Africa

Johnsghana:
Using insults or making unsubstantiated statements doesn't make your arguments any more or less valid.

You said I was "high on weed" in your first response to my original comment on this matter, is that a compliment or an insult?

In nowhere in my comments did I mention Ghana as the reason for why Nigeria isn't working. Please read to understand.

Provide a link to the Ghana Energy Sector Debt (with reference to the owed to Nigeria), If not, please stop trolling me.

Since you're so interested, i wont spoon feed you
the same way you googled

you will get it online, its a public document.

Me saying you're high on weed is not an insult
It's the only way I can diagnose your Illusion

bigpicture001:
Not true..its very cheap in NIGERIA

we all no Nigeria is a cheap place to live

Ghana is an expensive country never compare
The qualities are not the same.

AskiaHarem:
Again, "Ghana has no Navy". A couple dozen fishing boats is not a Navy. I also doubt the they where in Nigerian waters.

yet the space between Benin and Ghana where the Ghana navy has control is the safest water in West Africa

results

bigpicture001:
Schools in Ghana are more expensive than conventional university

education is never cheap anywhere

Johnsghana:
Typically, finding it difficult to express your views without resorting to insults. This is a sign of intellectual weakness. My sincere condolences! Learn how to engage with facts, I have added a link below again to prove that Ghana was owing and still owes Nigeria money for Gas.

If you have counter fact provide it and stop trolling and throwing juvenile banters.

https://punchng.com/ghana-owes-160m-for-gas-supply-from-nigeria/amp/

first of all

Ive not insulted you

You're just living in illusion

since you're busy at proving Ghana owe you
you can go and read the latest report on Ghana energy sector debt.

You keep being fed bullshit as and excuse to why your society is not doing well.

bigpicture001:
They should go to egypt

only if they can afford to

bigpicture001:
Naida should use the trump techniques and ban Ghana peanut, foot items, stop the recognition of Ghana certificate in Naida jobs.. etc...

If you want war, u get it..cuz d got of Ghana has not com out against this madness

you'll only hurt your fellow Nigerians who want to have quality education

Johnsghana:
At least let us die with pride and not this grand humiliation by Ghana.

I live in Ghana, I know how Ghanaians behave towards Nigeria.

Even though that amount Ghana owes Nigeria below has increased to over $200m since this report.

Here you go!

https://punchng.com/ghana-owes-160m-for-gas-supply-from-nigeria/amp/

you are high on weed

Ghana does not owe your country a penny

Your country for the past two years, cant even provide Ghana with gas.
Stop passing illusive comments

Parrot69:
Oya make una go buy from dem. Mumu people.
Una get luck. By the time we get better president, this una nonsense go stop!

Obascoetubi:

https://punchng.com/ghana-owes-160m-for-gas-supply-from-nigeria/




https://allafrica.com/stories/201804160123.html

that money was long paid before the end of 2018 so youre drolling on past news

Obascoetubi:
you've forgotten that ghana still owed us billion of naira what of gas suply? if we cut out ghana, nothing will happen, because we do sell gas to none africa countries.

Ghana does not owe Nigeria a penny as of today.

Nigeria has only been supplying 50m SCF worth of gas for the past 2 years

Ugosample:
from my experience

I disagree tho

you might want to search for the lots of deportation of Chinese, Indians and Lebanese from Ghana.

The law does not frown on foreigners engaging in wholesale trade

grandstar:
I doubt the bad activities of Nigerians is to blame.

I suspect that there's domination of some section of their economy by foreigners and these foreigners are Nigerians. I can trust Igbo's having shops everywhere and it breeding resentment. I am not anti Igbo

It is the heavy presence of Nigerians, fleeing an their underperforming economy is the problem./

If Nigeria's per capita income was at least $8,000, the Ghanians and others from Africa would be calling Nigeria home

the major reason why Nigerians are in the spotlight in Ghana

especially this year has been because of the heinous crimes from them
which has led to a serious look at deporting a lot of Nigerians.

Now, the tension from the crime issue has spread over into trade whereby Ghanaians are saying they will make sure their laws are enforced.


Nigeria itself cannot do much because Nigeria has placed a ban on a lot of products from Ghana.
Ghana gov't can't help because a lot of taxes that go to government comes from those traders.

MrGerald:
What rules and tradition are you talking about, have you ever traveled out before or to Ghana? They're very jealous set of people, not only to foreigners, to themselves too that's the reason why they are too diabolical... Once you're becoming successful in Ghana your friends, family members, even strangers that has nothing to do with you envy you, they mostly die young and in mysterious ways.

this is everywhere

Ugosample:
That is my annoyance with these nigger Ghanaians

it is strictly enforced in that demographic too

Gabson006:
Seems you don't understand.
If Lagos state make such policy.
It will affect Ghanaian even more
That's just it

Lagos is free to implement it laws

because at this point Ghana is busy implementing it own laws.

there are just less than 250,000 Ghanaians in Nigeria
