Shma2022: Get your facts right. Ksh was 110 against the USD there about _ in 2020.
KSH has only depreciated after global hyperinflation brought on by Ukrain - the Russia war. Why do you think Nigerian or Ghanaian GDP are still showing growth despite currency depreciation?
Cause both the Nigerian and Ghanaian economies are productive economies(real economies) and the Kenyan economy is not.
GeneralDae: Ghana is not doing badly at all. Infact in terms of tourism and a relaxed atmosphere, they are doing very well.
But one cannot deny the obvious. South Korea is perhaps a more cordial place than China and doing well in their own right but China is definitely the big dog in the region. It doesn't take anything away from South Korea nor does it deplete some of the advantages they have over China (which are many).
Some things are not up for argument no matter how patriotic you are.
You don't know, that's why
You will hate it when you go to South Korea compared to China.
vankelvin: These are some of the things that's sets Ghana apart from chaotic zoos.
We are so deligent and diplomatic in all our doings so we will continue to be at peace with our close neighbors.
No sensible country closes borders unannounced and still refuse trucks loaded with perishable good to cross? The worst part is citizens of that country sees nothing wrong with that but rather call it "catching cold"? funny
🤣😂
These are some of the things that make countries in the subregion highly respect Ghana.
And they wonder why Nigeria has little to no influence in the subregion.
GeneralDae: How do you know it's 50 million dollars trade? If it's just 50 million dollars trade, you guys wouldn't have cried that long and so hard.
because that what the data said, the last time I checked. Talking sense into your leaders head is necessary so they can behave sanely and that's not crying.
Plus causing loss to private businesses will require govt intervention.
GeneralDae: The question is what is Ghana's business? We did it trying to teach Benin Republic in particular a lesson, we never knew how much Ghanaian economy was dependent on that trade route.
This is why Nigerians were all shocked when we heard the Ghanaian economy is in trouble and your president even spoke about the case in London.
It became Ghana's problem the moment you stopped allowing Ghanaian goods in transit from passing.
Explain how the Ghanaian economy is dependent on 50 million dollars trade. 🤣😂 You caused unnecessary losses to companies in Ghana for which political authorities had to take action.
Where did you hear the Ghanaian economy being in trouble again? Play dey your eye top er? 😂🤣
vankelvin: Had it not been today I never knew diplomacy to a Nigerian means begging. tuerh
Well for Nigeria, everything goes for ego building.
When ever Ghana wants to close it western boarder, it notifies Ivory Coast just so they are not unnecessarily burdened prior and also gives a grace period just for vehicles already in transit.
This is how things are done sanely, most times it doesn't exist in Nigeria.
GeneralDae: Stop trying hard. We closed our borders, it affected far away Ghana to the extent that the Ghanaian President had to go to London to speak about it. Whether or not he was reporting Nigeria to the UK, I don't know.
He was asked a question about Nigeria closed borders and he had to answer.
You don't flout the community rules and not get some flogging from Ghana.
It is very important to put mature people who knows how to behave in diplomatic circles at the helms of affairs of Nigeria so your country don't keep acting like a child.
vankelvin: It is today I got to know majority of Nigerians are mentally down
You closed your borders unannounced, No country was made aware so Trucks loaded with perishable and none perishable goods got stacked at your borders and a Minister comes to ask you to open your borders so Ghanaian bound trucks can pass, How is that begging?
These people are wierd in all ways
English is a difficult language for them... Don't expect most of them to understand diplomatic language.
Anyone who read that statement knowing the in and out of diplomacy will notice it was a threat to Nigeria but allow them to carry on 😂🤣
samorobo: Because he is trying to protect the diplomatic interests of Nigerians in Ghana. It’s different from shutting our borders and you sit in akwaaba land and cry foul. Get the difference
Explain the difference
You make another country company products rot at your border because you failed to do the sensible thing of informing prior to shutting your borders but come crying fowl because your traders shops were shut down.?
Explain why Nigerian businesses have to bring their goods for certification in Ghana before onwards shipment to Europe and the US...
Obaaderemi2: Your minister was begging Nigeria to reopen the borders. That's different from ghanaians closing shops belonging to Nigerian traders inside Ghana. Ghana does not even share borders with Nigeria, yet your minister was begging.
She was threatening Nigeria with a ban of Nigerian good from entering or transiting Ghana and immediately you guys started behaving
IGpro1: A country that talks of soft power and influence, Couldn't even handle Issues with Burkina Fasos But had to cry to the US for help. While Nigeria they claim to have influence on,had her Air Force Fighter jet Stationed in Niger Republic. And up until recently were protecting the president of Gambia.
I don't know how you guys cope with these people.
Issues of Burkina Faso that were handled here in Accra ? Those of Mali as well
Obaaderemi2: I just dey laugh since. Even those who are not West Africans here admitted seeing Nigeria as the dominant force in West Africa. It's not open to debate yesterday, today and tomorrow. But the argument is entertaining sha.
well most of them don't know much about west Africa
rvp2018: Now take you medicine. This beyond stupid. Insane.
Now that you can't dispute facts , you've started screaming like the madman you are. Russia is a destroyer of empires for a reason. Any country will be wise to let a sleeping Bear, sleep
Poland is busy preventing the South African delegation from going about their duty because they are heavily invested in making money from that conflict..
Ukraine getting wrecked is to their benefit, they gets cheap Ukrainian grain they can then sell to Europe at exorbitant prices and when Ukraine becomes a failed state, they can easily get back Western Ukraine.
Poland is busy on a path of reparation from Germany and since the Ukrainians fought alongside the Germans, they will be in their right
Mkenya2019: NATO has not even expended a single soldier - and have essentially given Ukraine old rickety hand-me down tools - all measured to be just enough to wear down Russia and not make Russia so desperate to throw Nuclear. In Kenya we call it Mitumba. Ghana I hear there is secondhand market too for used clothes.
US dollar might lose eventually some % but they will likely knock out Russia from being any threat to US and its foreign interest - and now solely focus on China.
Of course most of you idiots think US and NATO have ratchet up arms production. Nope. Ukraine are being given downgraded useless weapons - as everyone has seen what a joke Russia is with world war II weapons and vodka drunken soldiers.
Ukraine eventually will lose small part of it's territory as concession to Russian-speaking Ukraine - but will become NATO and EU.
I dont see how Russia will win this - if they are doing it for their Russian speaking kin - that is all they will get.
NATO does not need to send soldiers even though they are doing so, to run out of weapons. They've simply run out of bullets and artillery in their effort to bleed Russia dry of ammunition, they ended up bleeding themselves dry.
Meanwhile Russia can keep this going for another 15 to 20 years before running our of it Soviet stockpile.
The US dollar lost 10% of global trade just by Russia's single intervention in one year and now doing 44% or 34% of global trade. Before they'll be able to knock Russia out, Russia would knock them out when all that dollars start returning to the US.
You're just and idiot... NATO have rachet up production of weapons and yet their combine production can't meet those of Russia. They destroyed their industrial base and are now trying to destroy those of Germany.
Ukraine are being given the best of NATO including the best of intelligence.
The Russians have won already economically and militarily... Now NATO wants to freeze the conflict but the Russians will never trust them again
Mkenya2019: Russia is not winning. Ukraine is not winning. They are going to engage in long drawn protracted battle. The winner is defintely NATO. They are using Ukraine free blood to beat Russia. Just like Afgan Mujahideen finished USSR with CIA financing them.
The winners eventually will be US, EU and NATO. Followed by Ukriane who will get to join EU and NATO - economic bandwagon and out of Russia armpit.
Russia will be consumed by this long draw war and is the ultimate loser.
So the German B and D are lying?
The Russians have come out the Winner in this conflict on the economic front and the military front.
NATO has come out the worse loser by effectively being demilitarized of ammunition, hence each NATO member is currently Ill prepared for any conflict.
US weapons makers and their shareholders have come out one of the biggest winners.
