Ghana economy is better than Nigeria economy no thanks to clueless emilokan govt and his wack economic policies. When Ghana economy was bad, ghanians protested and shouted more than Nigerians. Most of them left their country to Nigeria till Nigeria started deporting them just as they’re doing to Nigerians now so it’s not a bad thing to criticize a government that’s not doing well and it’s not a hate. Even if the people hates a govt due to it’s policies, it’s still the duty of the govt to make his people to love him. If a govt can’t get his people to love him, he’s a failure bcs he’s there for the people and it’s the people that will return him to office. He shouldn’t believe on his ability to buy the soul of the people with money. Govt should care about his people first.
Why are we always talking about Ghana? There are 14 countries in West Africa. Everything, Ghana Ghana Ghana. Senegal nko? What of Liberia and Sierra Leone? Or Cameroon?

they should come and grow the food on your head? Do you provide land and farming tools while the people rejected it. Always think wee before you type in social space.
If illiterate villagers can find land to farm on without paying a penny for it, what is really stopping you?

Don't you come from somewhere?

Go there and ask your village chief for land to cultivate. They will find for you.

Your problem is not lack of land or farming tools. It was to escape that agrarian life that you ended up in Lagos and other cities, so don't complain of lack of land.

Resurgent Nigerian Economy Boosts MTN Performance


The positive and regulatory environment—characterised by improved forex availability, relative stability of the currency, and supporting policy reforms—boosted MTN Nigeria's performance in the half-year ended June 30.

The positive environment include new tax legislation that goes into effect in January 2026, which MTN Nigeria said yesterday give a stable basis for operational execution and long-term investment.

Nigeria accounts for a great deal of MTN Group revenue from the 16 markets in which it operates, and it has 297 million customers across Africa, making it the continent's largest telecom operator....

Karl Toriola, MTN Nigeria CEO, commented on the company's performance by saying: “We are excited by the progress made in the first half of 2025, reflecting the successful execution of the strategic priorities we previously communicated to the market.

“Building on the momentum from the first quarter, we delivered strong growth in service revenue for the period under review.

“This was driven by robust demand for our services, proactive customer value management and price adjustments, mainly in Q2.

“In reinforcing this growth, we accelerated investment in our network to enhance capacity, coverage and quality of experience.”

He continued: “The macroeconomic conditions in Nigeria showed notable improvements in the period under review, including a relatively stable naira, improved foreign exchange liquidity and easing inflationary pressures.

“The Central Bank of Nigeria maintained the Monetary Policy Rate at 27.5% to anchor inflation expectations, contributing to a moderation in the headline inflation to 22.2% in June 2025.

Our friend from China, rest assured, Nigeria is a great place to invest.

Nigeria's GDP accounts for 75% of the 14 nation-strong West Africa's GDP.

So Nigeria is the engine room of the continent.

So Africans are just their mules to do the dirty hardwork,while they make the gains.
Which machines?

Mr Man, stop this nonsense.

How many machines will they deploy? Is Africa your bedroom?

Or backyard?

How many machines or robots can they deploy to cover the entire Africa?

Or is it after they wipe us out that they will start building the machine?

Who does the physical work to bring that about?

From mines to the cash crop farms in remote villages to the ports and transport and cargo?

These countries also put in the work for their people.

They developed their infrastructures and focused on education .

Economically they emphasised production and export.

What did the generation of baby boomers in Nigeria do for Nigeria at this same period.They went to WAR, did coups ,introduced wanton corruption and religiosity.You just can't compare.

Which African economies can match Indonesia or Malaysia for example,let even take out the so called Asian tigers
Malaysia and Indonesia are just outposts of Chinese businesses.

Go to Malaysia. Most of the big companies and businesses are Chinese-owned.

China is the reason you have those countries prospering. Just like how Nigerian businesses, banks etc are spreading to Ghana, Sierra Leone etc. As Nigeria grows it will spill out into surrounding small nations, and they will grow too.

China is just Nigeria times 8, as per population and more so in economic influence.

Were was south Korea in 1960?

How come to black African country can equal it's standing today.let's even leave China out.

It simply shows that the baby boomer GENERATION failed
South Korea and the 4 other “tiger economies” were granted special treatment by the western allies after WW2.

To stop the encroachment of communist Soviet ideologies into Asia, the west selected 5 countries there including South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Singapore, and showered them with free money, favourable loans, technology transfer, and opened up western markets to goods made in their countries.

Specifically with the intent of creating powerful capitalist bulwarks against rampaging Soviet communism, and Chinese power.

That’s the only reason you have those “tiger economies” today. They are western creations.

To know the state they would have been in absent of that western intervention, look no further than their direct neighbours, Cambodia, Nepal, Burma, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, North Korea and Bangladesh.

Africans were given a clean slate by 1960 yet they misused it.
China is a single country with the one main language, Han, spoken by over 90% of the people as their native tongue. And they are ruled by a One Party dictatorship.

Africa is a continent of 54 sovereign countries, multi-ethnic to the point of over 3,000 different languages and ethnic groups, in artificially created colonial countries. Each country with a different type of political system.

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know which region between the two will act quicker in anything it’s doing.

That doesn’t mean Africa is standing still.

Her economies are growing in leaps and bounds.

Okay congratulations. Is Africa now Utopia? Of what use is your post to the average man who can't feed because of backward systems that exist in Africa. Or you just wanted to show your knowledge of history lol...the fact that Africa did all this but has now been reduced to poverty and ethnic bigotry only serves to buttress the OP's point
Africa was invaded, colonised, and raped to the tune of 5,000 Trillion Dollars, according to AI calculations, and That is their Debt to Africa, and the Earth will know No peace until Reparations are paid to every African descended person.

Europeans introduced firearms into a world that had agreed to use iron weapons for thousands of years. The entire world was caught off-guard, not just Africa, and fell to Europe, hitherto the most backward region of the Earth, till they stole gunpowder mixtures from the Chinese to make guns and bombs for conquest.

Africans are still recovering from the rape of their countries, and only began building their countries in the 1960s after Independence.

Today, 13 of the 20 fastest growing economies on Earth are in Africa.

Africa is the Future.

The same way one should wonder how Europeans can be Christians. Romans had their own religion before Christ, in fact they killed the Christ and persecuted Christians.
There was no ''Christ''. It's a Roman scam from start to finish.

Why would the ''Son of God'' come to Earth and only go to where white people are staying?

Are we not God's Creation?

Why would ''Christ'' come 2,000 years ago but we didn't hear about him until 100 years ago when the British decided to come to steal, loot, colonise and burn down our glorious civilisation?

What happened to your ''Son of God'' in 1,900 years of ignoring us?

And then all of a sudden after the British invaded to steal, it became really, REALLY important for us to be ''saved by Jesus''.

Why?

Why did it only become important 1,900 years after he supposedly came to Earth?

Why only when the British needed to loot our resources in the 1900s did it become necessary for us to be ''saved by Jesus'' and ''avoid hellfire''?

If hellfire truly exists, how come it took colonial invaders and thieves to make us aware of it, a mere century ago when they desired to steal from us, when we have been on this earth as Africans praising and honouring God and his forces of Divinity for hundreds of thousands of years?

The very idea is comically ludicrous.

Celestialsword:
Nearly all the countries colonized in Africa took the colonialist language as their lingua franca) official language).

Africans were living primitively during the precolonial era, so, when they came, their language was the only means of communication as they cannot speak the different languages of the African's....
You are miseducated by colonial propaganda.

According to the UK Guardian newspaper:

'With its mathematical layout and earthworks longer than the Great Wall of China, Benin City was one of the best planned cities in the world when London was a place of ‘thievery and murder'.......

Benin City was also one of the first cities to have a semblance of street lighting. Huge metal lamps, many feet high, were built and placed around the city, especially near the king’s palace. Fuelled by palm oil, their burning wicks were lit at night to provide illumination for traffic to and from the palace.

When the Portuguese first “discovered” the city in 1485, they were stunned to find this vast kingdom made of hundreds of interlocked cities and villages in the middle of the African jungle. They called it the “Great City of Benin”.... Indeed, they classified Benin City as one of the most beautiful and best planned cities in the world.

In 1691, the Portuguese ship captain Lourenco Pinto observed: “Great Benin, where the king resides, is larger than Lisbon; all the streets run straight and as far as the eye can see. The houses are large, especially that of the king, which is richly decorated and has fine columns. The city is wealthy and industrious. It is so well governed that theft is unknown and the people live in such security that they have no doors to their houses.”

In contrast, London at the same time is described by Bruce Holsinger, professor of English at the University of Virginia, as being a city of “thievery, prostitution, murder, bribery and a thriving black market made the medieval city ripe for exploitation by those with a skill for the quick blade or picking a pocket”.

Benin City’s planning and design was done according to careful rules of symmetry, proportionality and repetition now known as fractal design. The mathematician Ron Eglash, author of African Fractals – which examines the patterns underpinning architecture, art and design in many parts of Africa – notes that the city and its surrounding villages were purposely laid out to form perfect fractals, with similar shapes repeated in the rooms of each house, and the house itself, and the clusters of houses in the village in mathematically predictable patterns.

As he puts it: “When Europeans first came to Africa, they considered the architecture very disorganised and thus primitive. It never occurred to them that the Africans might have been using a form of mathematics that they hadn’t even discovered yet.”

“Houses are built alongside the streets in good order, the one close to the other,” writes the 17th-century Dutch visitor Olfert Dapper. “Adorned with gables and steps … they are usually broad with long galleries inside, especially so in the case of the houses of the nobility, and divided into many rooms which are separated by walls made of red clay, very well erected.”

Dapper adds that wealthy residents kept these walls “as shiny and smooth by washing and rubbing as any wall in Holland can be made with chalk, and they are like mirrors. The upper storeys are made of the same sort of clay.''
