Not just my government, most African governments cannot be trusted to carry out a project of 5bn talk more of 10bn upward, and if any government has that amount of money to burn, there are better ways to use it than building smart cities that benefits only few citizens

most government are actually trusted

[b]privately funded smart cities I am not a fan of a government (especially African) spending billions on smart cities.

because your government cannot be trusted right ?

Ibrahimanis:
Mine is more recent

Rgade:
Okay now this comment reeks of sentiment.
You have lots of companies in Nigeria worth up to a billion dollars, but we don't know about them because you are hiding them because of our xenophobic tendencies?? Tell me this is a joke...
First of all Nigeria doesn't have any xenophobic tendencies, there has never been a case when Nigerians just launched attacks on foreigners and foreign investments. It has NEVER happened, so why make things up just to prove your point??
You could atleast cite an instance.
If you have ever been in Nigeria, one thing you will notice is that Nigerians are generally rather oblivious to the presence of foreigners in our midst, we don't care. We don't know who they are, we take no notice of them, they just come in and flow with the crowd. More so, when Nigeria has over 200 ethnic groups, you won't even know who is a foreigner or whose Just from a different ethnic group.
Were not like Ghanaians, southeees, kenyans and most other Africans that take out time counting the number of foreigners in their country.. Loool
And secondly ,,how the heck do you hide a company worth over a billion dollars in a foreign country ??
That's the line I'm hoping is a joke, please tell me it's a joke... Lool
Why not tell me the companies you have here??
Just a name and I'll consult a search engine.
You even mentioned our oil and gas sector �
Which of the sectors players are from Ghana??
Total? Shell? Exxon Mobil? Perhars Agip or chevron.
Abi is it our own NNPC??

you hate and Xenophonia was made light when Springfield was awarded contracts in Nigeria
even went ahead to organised slander campaigns against the company in the media

I don't share sentiments over something I don't care about

i wont list Ghanaian companies to you for you to organise your usual hate campaigns on them
that is what you are best known for

you guys are so afraid of competition from Ghanaian companies.

just stating FACTS anyway

Ibrahimanis:
This picture is for Lagos -Ibadan line

Construction hasn't started for Ghana - Burkina Faso line, the MOU was signed this December after all.

few lines have been layed
whiles the major part is undergoing environment study

rvp20182:
an inch day..let see between the rail and sgr which one get done.

how far with SGR phase 2?

using relative is too modest

vaxx:
There are areas where Ghana is better than Nigeria and vice-versa.

Ghana has a higher standard of living and is generally cleaner and has lower levels of crime and unrest. it also has relatively better educational institutions.

samsobo24:
A Ghanaian once said Accra is best than all Niger cities combined

sounds very funny

Accra does not compare itself with villages

abbeg:
I understand.It's the same way in USA rock doesn't sell like before but it's still there.But some south Africans are acting like nigerian music just stays in nigeria like their house music.I'm willing to bet that right now at least ten clubs or parties are playing Nigerian music in joburg alone.Even the nominees for best African song out of eight four were Nigerian.How aren't we dominating?In many countries top ten No.one is more likely to be nigerian than a song from their own country.Even in Ghana and S.A.Yet here they act like it's not true.

those are Ghana to 50 songs

tylann:
Do you export rice now

abbeg:
Nigeria under who's shadow? You saying it doesn't change anything.Try and envelop countries like Cameroon before coming for an African power like Nigeria.As for now...
enjoy the shade

only you know what you mean by envelop

dont go crazy again when another US president visits Ghana over Nigeria.

Ghana hasn't falter carrying the weight of west africa

even with Nigeria being a snitch and a bitch in this small backyard

Rgade:
Well at this point I think I should call it a day.
If you believe that Ghana doesn't receive aid from the us, then there's no reason arguing further.
What will you say next, Nigeria receives aid from Ghana??
US aids Nigeria, Kenya, SA,, even Israel,.... And then there's Ghana, the West African country apparently too big for aid.

we interpret it differently here

9jaRealist:
Get it right buddy. Lagos’ (not Nigeria’s) GDP is almost three times Ghana’s GDP.
Nigeria’s GDP is about TEN TIMES (or more) the size of Ghana’s and Nigeria has a BETTER GDP per capita.

Again, I hate childish mudslings between people who should be be aspiring towards closer ties and brotherhood (because Ghanaians and Nigerians probably share the most cultural and other commonalities among all sub-Saharan Africans or at least among West Africans), but rest assured that there is NO rational basis for economic comparisons between Ghana and Nigeria.

BTW, not to belabor this tedious discourse, but FYI Ghanaian companies do not invest in Nigeria because they do not have the capacity (financial or otherwise) to do so nor frankly anything of comparative advantage to offer. But of course you are free to share with us where else (that is, other than a Nigeria) Ghanaian companies have invested in any significant manner....go ahead, we are waiting.

first of all Nigeria GDP is 6 times that of Ghana
Ghana will forever have a better standard of living for it citizens than Nigeria can ever reach in 50 years

But Nigerians will never stop hating on anything Ghanaian when Ghanaians don't even care about their existence
you guys are just childish. while we are busy trying to build our citizens up and develop our society
to the level of the Asians, you guys are busy doing your comparisons at every turn. Ghana is not the only country in Africa for you guys to compare your country to.
we don't want our society to start belittling itself to the level of Nigeria

Ghana does not seek brotherhood to a xenophobic society,
especially one that it has no culture entanglement with.

9jaRealist:
Dude, you are about to score an own-goal.

Springfield Ashburton was linked to Deziani Alison-Madueke’s massively corrupt oil-lifting regime, and therefore its Nigeria business suffered when the NNPC terminated all Offshore Processing Agreements (in fact, the NNPC no longer does OPA transactions at all), but the Okyere dude reportedly helped out Deziani by purchasing her £4.5 million house in London. Not exactly the sort of ‘investors’ we are looking for.

as long as his agreement with NNPC has not been terminated
he's still lifting.


You Nigerians are so filled with hate and Xenophobia such that once you here anything Ghanaian naa
you start hating

9jaRealist:
Of course it does.

About $200 million in 2018 (according to USAID published figures).

US AID find whatever place it want and place it monies to use

Rgade:
Ghanaians be thinking that their country is a First World nation.
I even heard some of them ranting on bbc pidgin about how they would also sanction America and even deport americans.... Loool.
And one us dude was like "you mean all 8 of them??"
How can you deport expats that are legally there because of your country men who want to illegally reside in murikkaa.
Ghanaians will be forming like they are in some kind of trade war with the us.
Stop taking their aids and grants then.

Ghana does not recieve aid from the US

Rgade:
More delusional quotes... Ghana doesn't want to put money in a fluid case as Nigeria,, bla bla bla.
Of course you just took the better side of the equation.
Ghana doesn't have any investments in Nigeria because Ghana doesn't have any franchise or company that can survive or even enter the Nigerian market at all. Simple.
Does Ghana have any franchise worth up to a billion dollars?? I don't think so.
And your claims that Ghana doesn't invest in Nigeria because of instability is invalidated by the fact that Nigeria has always received more fdi than Ghana.
You don't really wanna compare the number of multinationals operating in both countries do you??
You stated that Nigeria has never supplied up to the agreed amount of gas to Ghana, well maybe that's because Ghana hasn't been paying up to the agreed sum.
How much are you owing us in gas supply again??
And let's not also forget the fact that it was still Nigeria that paid for and built the same gas pipes Ghana is being fed with.
But of course, Africans don't argue with facts and logic, Just sentiments.
And when you said that Ghana doesn't receive budget support, does that include aids and grants??
As big and powerful as the UK is, they still depend on the highly controversial Russia for much of her energy needs, and they understand that.
Ghanaians always making themselves bigger than they are.

Let me thread down your write up into the dustbin
first of, Ghana have lots and lots of franchises that are in the Nigerian economy and worth more than a billion dollars
we just dont want to make them known to your citizens because you their xenophobic tendencies
https://www.forbes.com/sites/mfonobongnsehe/2018/08/27/meet-the-38-year-old-entrepreneur-who-built-a-1-billion-oil-company-in-ghana/
we have closed to 20 companies already in the nigerian economy
from your oil industry to real estate to technology.

your country has never received more fdi than Ghana in reality and scale
Buhari told you Ghana owe your country
so you also bought that dumb statement ......
Buhari chopped the money.

Ghana will not pay monies for gas that you dont supply
since the contract was signed, Nigerian has never supplied the amount of gas they were contracted to supply.
Ghana will keep withholding payment until you live up to the spirit of the agreement.


it wasn't Nigeria that built the pipeline
who told you that lie ?
Your country didnt know what to do with gas and they were busy flaring it
until Ghana decided to build a pipeline from Nigeria and ask Benin and Togo to be offtakers
it just happens that nigeria contributed the largest amount when they were asked to take part.
That is why, Ghana has since been the one managing the pipeline.

i have never come across an oil producer that wait for customers to build their own pipeline before
thats the sorry case of Nigeria

next time you want to argue , do it with facts
not your sentiments
your country is big but has nothing
yet it citizens never seize on trying to make it important than it is

9jaRealist:
Hate when Ghanaians and Nigerians engaged in childish mudslinging.

But dude let’s keep it real. The GDP of just Lagos alone is almost THREE TIMES the size of the entire Ghana’s GDP (in fact, it’s bigger than the GDP of Ghana and Kenya combined), with a smaller population. Meanwhile, billions of dollars of Nigerian direct investment contributes to propping up the Ghanaian economy (from massive investments like Dangote Cement and Globacom to banking, real estate and even retail), and even with the discovery of oil and gas in Ghana, it still depends on below market-priced gas from Nigeria’s Escravos for a lot of its gas-powered electricity, and of course Nigeria’s MainOne and Glo submarine cables power large swathes of Ghana’s broadband infrastructure (in addition to MTN’s WACS). Meanwhile, there is no such reciprocal Ghanaian influence on the Nigerian economy.

Nonetheless, all admittedly admirable bravado aside, Ghana cannot afford to piss the West off because until quite recently Western aid inflows accounted for about 40% of Ghana’s national budget (down to probably something in the region of 20% these days).
.

nigeria GDP is bigger than Ghana's
but that means nothing when the ordinary Ghanaian is still better off than a nigerian.
The ordinary Ghanaian will continue to have a better standard of living than the Nigerian.

Ghana offers a sane evevironment for everyone to invest in
Dangote and glo saw an opportunity and they invested.
Ghana will not want to put investment in a fluid case as Nigeria

Ghana have six different fibre optics running through it shores
glo is the least preffered

Nigerian gas has never been a major part of Ghana power sector because Nigeria has consistently lived below the contractual agreement
at most, only pump 60 million cubic feet of gas per day.
Ghana gas supplies 150 million standard cubic feet of gas per day
Ghana still buys 200 million plus standard cubic feet of gas per day from the international market .

so you see
nigeria gas is less important in the Ghanaian sector

Ghana is a middle income economy and does not receive budget support and hasnt receive budget support for 10 years
worry about your country , they are stiil taking budgetry support for education health and the millitary

grandstar:
You have a good point. But at the end of the day,what will pay the Ghanian economy should be what is Paramount and not ego.

it is not about ego
it is about giving travel documents to aliens
that is paramount.

ThatIjawBoy:
Ghana use bleaching cream get that in to your thick skull head gorilla

so whats your problem again ?


when your have 90% of your population bleaching , including men
you wont go solve that but will want to equalize that another country pop also bleach.
go and solve your national disaster.


ignorance is a disease
like i said
foolishness was born with you

Mizwisdom:
Go away!

soon as you stop having mental breakdown on Ghana

ThatIjawBoy:
excuse me do I know you?if not then carry your stupidity out of my mention.

im just questioning your mental breakdown on everything Ghana



stupidity is really born within
foolish brats

linearity:
Did you read the article or understand why Ghana was sanctioned?

Any little fallout between the passives ‘big’ guy and the the ‘lilltle’ guy is not because the big guy is out to oppress the little guy....sometimes, it is the little guy’s fault....as the case in point.

the case is that
for two years now, the US has been pressuring Ghana to give travel documents to people who are not it citizens

the US can impose all the sanctions in it book
Ghana will still not give travel documents to aliens

ThatIjawBoy:
They are still using bleaching creams in Ghana

whats your problem
