grow up and learn the meaning of benefiting. You're talking as if Nigeria is the only country that produce gas in this region, we can easily turn to other suppliers in the region so you can continue to flare your gas

Hahahahahahaha! Who should grow up? You are such a fool!

Why didn't your poor country go else where? Who will sell for you on credit? Which African country can you owe 180m in dollars? Are u insane? They will crumble.

Obviously you are stupid and no nothing about business, so you think you can just turn to anywhere to buy.

Abi your brains didn't tell you that these resources are of different qualities. Besides that, some countries are lenient in nature, even in business like Nigeria because we take a lot of things for granted which is our weakness.

We supplied you products running into hundred millions of dols, you are here saying you can "easily" turn else where.

Or you think you tiny country didn't consider things before staying with our product?

What am I even saying sef? Nothing matter than we are carrying your economy. Take power away from it and let's see if you won't struggle.

Whether you are get else where mattered less, but in the main time you are depending on us to survive and PAYING TOO, even though your outstanding is huge.

For now at least, pay tribute to Nigeria. We be father abeg!

So we buy your gas so you think your useless country is better? haha what kind of stupid thinking is that?
Very soon we gonna stop buying your useless gas.
You guys don't even know the essense of the gas ....such a useless country
And have you ever heard a Ghanaian comparing his/her country to a useless country like nigeria before??
Its always you guys trying to compare your useless good for nothing country to Ghana.

It was bokoharam,scamming,kidnapping, armed robbery, and prostitution which made nigeria popular so shut up.
When was the last time you heard anything positive about nigeria?

http://citifmonline.com/2015/04/02/ghana-gas-finally-starts-full-production-of-gas/

Well I forgot to address the poisons smoke (carbon monoxide) that your claimed your tiny country one to start producing. Well the fact still remains that for years we took care of you, supplied your needs even when you don't have money to pay. $180M isn't a small money.

If you like use oxygen as LNG, it's on record that we fed and supplied you because without it your country couldn't survive.

At least you were once my debtor!!! You see? You are too small!!

You call this great nationals scammers, yet you got supplied crude oil but you refused to pay. Your debt ran into hundreds millions of dollars.

theives!! Shoe makers (cobblers)

You are such a slowpoke and a fool, at least for now it is that good for nothing gas that you depend on. See your foolishness!! If them born ur papa well, make una sey u don't want the gas today when you don't have an alternative if nor be beg una go dey beg. Your stupid poor country came to abuja to beg for gas and your debt to be pushed forward. Debtors!!

The gas is useles but at least it I serving you. You are paying for it. Who is the idiot here now? The one buying and paying for crap or the one selling the crap?

Try buy gas from else where if they will sell on credit, you pupper.
You claim your country is better but what I know Ghana people for here in Nigeria are buns sellers, tailors and shoe makers lol.

There are MD and CEOs who are Nigerians in your miserable poor, tiny country. If they say we are in recession doesn't mean we are in same class still. OK, you are a better country abi? What have you manufactured?

You obviously live in the bush so you don't hear anything good about Nigeria. Nigeria is better than Ghana in a light year in terms of human and natural resources. Do u know philip emeguali? Yea, the father of computer (internet), the same one you are using now.

I have liste great things Nigerians have don and are recognized for, even world political platforms have Nigerians in key positions. The last we heard of Ghana was Kofi. Who else?

The most useless thing I have heard from you fool is that our gas is useless, yet you relly on it. See that you are indeed a fool?

J4parry:
The reason why Africa will remain where they are globally is what's happening on this thread. Former Libyan president got betrayed by his own brothers (AU Member presidents) because they can't stand united all in the name of hate. Whether you're from Nigeria, Ghana, SA, Egypt or Kenya, it doesn't count when you leave Africa, they classify you as African, some don't even bother asking which country you're from. This same hatred for one another is the reason why our older generation failed us. They couldn't put pride aside and speak with a single voice, they wanted to join the white man and undue the other as in the case of Libya not knowing that it will backfire. Africans are the ones who will build Africa not Foreigners and if it must happen, pride or disdain for one another won't profer a long lasting solution. Ghana faced recession, Kenya faced it, SA faced it, Egypt and Nigeria are facing, it can be any other country tomorrow so this cursing and 'we are better' attitude will only massage your egos for now but in one way or the other countries will feel the pain of the other. We're all interconnected, we the youths of Africa as educated as we are still don't know what it means for the world to look at everyone from this part of the world as beggars. Nairaland was created to share ideas by a brilliant mind, instead of cursing, think of what you can contribute to the growth of your fellow African.

WE ARE BROTHERS!

Bro I feel you even though I do not know ur nationality.
However, it's Ghana that is always wanting to compete with Nigeria. Sin we Chased them out the have always hate and rival us...lol

Even during football games, they always want to die on the field against Nigeria yet we are always bigger and beta internationally which is the truth and that is where the issue is. Ghana is big in her own right but Nigeria is bigger and more recognize internationally.

What prize has Ghana paid for Africans? Do u know how many peace keeping we have embarked in west Africa? How many wars we have won in liberia and Congo to help keep peace? So being accused of poluting west African region with LNG is a statement of an illiterate.

We look after our brothers and during elections across the region Nigeria always send observers and delegates because of our influence.

Till date, Ghana is benefiting from Nigeria and even in debt too so time last year. Paying off th debt doesn't mean they still won't pay for the ones being supplied tomorrow. If Nigeria cut off gas today, Ghana will be blacked out. Let's talk with our sense, putting facts on the ground and you will see that they need our support more.

If Nigeria goes down today, many Ecowas nations will be affected.


Oct 16, 2015 – Ghana Faces Electricity Problem As Nigeria Threatens To Stop Gas Supply Over $181 Million Debt 

Nigeria will delay a plan to drastically cut gas exports to Ghana from Friday while the two sides hold emergency talks over an outstanding debt of $181 million, the West African Gas Pipeline Company (WAPCo) said.

Ghana already faces electricity blackouts and the threat to cut supply by 70 percent could have worsened the problems and presented an extra headache for the government.

Ghana’s Minister for Power Kwabena Donkor led a government delegation to Abuja that began talks on Thursday with N-Gaz, a Nigerian consortium, and other stakeholders in a bid to avert the threat, said Harriet Wereko-Brobby, WAPCo spokeswoman.

“By next week we are expecting a way forward,” she told Reuters. “There appears to be a will by all the parties to resolve the issue without the flow of gas being cut off.”

Power supply is the number one thing for any country's
Economy and Ghana is depending on us for that. #FACT

So you are reasonable you will know the Ghana govt cannot talk about Nigeria the way many ignorant people do here.


An ignorant fellow calls Nigeria as shitnigerians yet he lives in Nigeria, hasn't gotten frustrated and return home. Another said Nigerians eat from dustbin in what part? Haha!

These are Ghana people on our own platform oo, nairaland a live here because they like to here. Lol

Nigerians are the most extravagant people in Africa and saying they eat from dustbin is fraud! There are poor people everywhere, even beggers in the streets of new york.

Like me now, I do not benefit a dime from Ghana because I don't live there, not on their site or land, my country supports theirs. So when you are benefiting from Nigeria an you are talking trash, you shud be ashamed. Do the honourable thing which is a leave both NL and 9ja sin it's too bad for you.


At least prof wole soyinka (world renowned) did the honorable thing and left the USA. Do the talk!!!

The facts ar there too see.

First and fore most the stupid idiot that blocked me from posting comments should continue.

I haven't said anything malicious than stating obvious facts.
Let's see how many more suspension I get

CrudeGH:
Rubbish upon rubbish

Mudder fugger! How is it my fault that your country is in recession? even a child born today know shitnigeria is a zoo populated by animals

Or how is it my fault that country armpit country is fvcked!

Don’t start what you cant finish, magg0t!







[s][/s]

Hahahahahaha trash!! Like there are no crimes in Europe and America.

Let me remind you! Have you forgotten once in your history that your ricketty tiny country was seeking refuge (as refugees) in Nigeria? Do you know where the phrase Ghana must go emanated from? Lol

We have always been bigger and will continue to be. Please name one rich man in Ghana even your king and let's see where they are ranked in business. U know what? Nigerians are the greatest black people ever existed and I'm not kidding.

Have heard of these people?

Bros me just dey joke o! But on a serious note, things are cheap in Ghana and those are things that determines economy of any nation. Do they have China fones in Ghana? I'm just wondering, abi their China fones sef dey costly?

CrudeGH:
And why are you nigerians so obsessed with Ghana? Ghana this, Ghana that! Can't you people fvcking mind your business? I don't get it. Is it to score cheap points that your recession -plagued country is better than Ghana or what? You guys are pathetic, to be honest! Norway is regarded as one of the richest country in world, yet it is one of the most expensive. What has purchasing power got to do with anything? You can't survive on 50,000 a month in Ghana, so what? Arrant crap!

I do not care about anything you say as people are entitled to their opinions but was pissed when you said "your recession plagued country". Bros you have crossed the line!

I'm so sure you live in Nigeria or u have folks here and if you claim not to be, well at least you are on Naira Land! So who is obsessed here? Why are you stalking Nigerians? Crude? Hummm? Reminds me of crude oil and of cos Ghana will always wanna be like us in that area and like it or not.

The truth is recession can happen to anyone and we have seen better economies go down too, Greek economy with all their inventions, the Spanish and even portugal to name a few. Do you know how many countries Nigeria has bailed out financially in our history?

Despite all the loots from past governments amounting to several billions of dollars (which is a shame), yet Nigeria has survived. If such happen to "little" Ghana I bet your country will by now close shop. Do u know how many years of misappropriation of fund from wicked and past leaders before this great country could eventually recess?

Sandydayziz:
Is their economy bad as ours?

Ha babe! Ghana economy has improved since their recession but Nigeria economy now nor be here o and our own don pass boader o!

It seems igbo ladies appear to have taken the lead in the next economic revolution for the igbos, with pioneering roles in world bank, software, internet related businesses etc while this is in the overall interest and good of the igbo race ,it might lead to a social disfunctionality .

By the way igbo women pioneered the resistance that paved the way for independence now they are pioneering the next frontier for igbo economic emergence

Bros why you dey turn the thing into tribalism? We know that aunty is Igbo and by the way im delta ibo a speak Igbo too but on platforms li this every other Nigerians are , too and shud b respected.

Just as peopl said trump was racist due to some things he said, in like manner some statement are tribalistic oo

Viewers of this thread, take note because those which he wrote are the symptoms of ignorance.

You are the ignorant one sire!
Some things are never learnt from books but personal experience.

Do you know why some economist fail? It's not becos they don't read books but it is becos some theory, analogy and stuffs are only good on paper but not practical. I'm in marketing/sales so I know what I'm saying. Some policies are good on Paper but practically they will struggle.

See that ignorant fellow on top of me thanking God because he lacks knowledge of biology.

21- The brain is the main frame and chief coordinator of all what the op listed. So long as you have a functional brain, Nothing is impossible that is why Society, Laws, Religion, culture and politics were invented to cut down on the many possibilities of the brain.

Why does a funtional brain not prevent people from dying since nothing is impossible? Abi ar u saying every dead person first had their brain in an unconscious state before death?

Science says some body organs still work for some minute even after death because they are alive. Eg: heart, brain etc

Why does the human brain fail (psychos) at time if it's so super? You can praise biology but not God.

My good brother, all these our politicians are not worth dying for. Their interest is their pockets. both APC or PDP, they are the same set of people. APC sees PDP as corrupt and see their members as saints. Yes, PDP is corrupt, but is APC themselves sincere? I will reserve my comment for now until God pushes a sincere and God fearing person to come and bail Nigeria out of its predicament.

Hummm!!!
Honestly you are right and it is so sad. Personally I thought this government would be beta with what fashola did in Lagos, being that he is in this government but obviously some powers do not want Nigeria librated.

kolaish:
The wife of the president is an individual that is entitled to her own opinion. Her opinion(s) are however not backed by the constitution. There is nothing spectacular in the statement she made, if actually true. It is Nigerians that voted for Buhari and not her wife. Much ado about nothing.

Note: I am not an APC/PDP supporter.

At least you would have preferred someone deep down, except you are saying you don't have emotion.

Your heart will surely prefer one person even though your mouth says otherwise.

If you don't support Buhari or uncle goodluck (a.ka. Personally),

Then who else were you expecting for president?

This Laura nor get brain at all and i'm just shocked at how many people people she made a meaningful statement.

Which of them? Living her dream or advising people to dress without sense?

Nobody is putting anybody down but Haba, you must know that some people can't wear certain outfit because it does not fit. Just don't think people's opinion over you does not matter, it truly does else you can't make a better you.

Peopl like this fool will spend 2 hrs looking at the mirror and change out fit like 3 times self before leaving the house iin th name of looking for perfect match.

You for dey wear rainbow colour outfit naa because you believe in yourself that you are comfortable in it, so dress sense does not matter. Ewu!!

Your advise does not make sense at all because Alibaba wasn't malicious or targeting ladies, after he mentioned pot belly too. Personally, if u don't have checks in life (do and don't) then you have lost it.

If you ever find a husband and get pregnant, don't ever wear maternity gown o, keep wearing miss sexy or those tight rags.

Last time I checked, there is only one ikeji and that's aunty linda!

Mine was skipping dinner for all UCL

Really? Just that

Me can skip dinner for various other reasons and sometimes i sleep early and i go wake up for like btw 10 pm to 11 pm, so dinner gone.

Anyways, the most stupid thing i have done because of football was endangering my life by going out to watch chelsea preseason games whenever they are on tour in the usa from 1am to around 3am (early morning) and i have to go to a view center on the next street because of Nepa despite the night guards on my street (in my area), we just tell them we wan go watch match. Rubbish!!!

I have done it twice (for 2 different seasons) but God don deliver me ooo, this very last preseason i just lock up!!


UP BLUES!!!

Uncle which kind bag you need, this one wey you nor specify so.

Shey Na ladies hand bag or school bag you need because Na different bags dey o.

Recession? Bros, I dey suspect you o; this one wey be say Na person fawo you dey thief so.

Na big bag of garri you go need oo!

Uncle forget the concussion rice and scattered fish. If you Sabi cook you for augment Egusi, Vegetable or correct onugbu soup naa and arrange better Pounded yam. Make Man wak!!

Since you dey find work, na that one be correct family treat o!.

Concussion Na auto pilot; e dey arrange augment itself naa.

With the standard and dishing of the meal sef, you go know sey the rice na quick fix; maybe the wife wan poison the man because nor be all women Sabi cook oo

On top of that, the man dey frown face and no time to even dress down or off shoe like someone who enjoys cooking.

#concussion. Campus things sha!

omari5:
Unlike most nigerian men that believe every housework is solely for the wife, as if she is a wood

Madam, This man don give Una power abi?

You know even know whether the man wife nor Sabi cook and he decides to do it himself once in a while. Not every man eats rubbish or anything that comes oo!

Let every man abide in his own calling!! I believe the responsibility is shared and the man has to provide for the family, while the woman remain virtuous domestically and I admire women like this. The man can help out domestically once a while but you can't put a gun on his head or fault him if he doesn't. Some men are lazy and the woman comes in as a help meet t organize/manage both his life and house.

Some people will take advantage if you decide to help them. In fact some women go share work give their husband if them leave dem o.

Eepa dormo o!!

Make ena sha nor use person head do am oo!

Oba wa tope yi!!

I seriously doubt the source of your info my brother. I'm a Cameroonian and theres no such news yet neither in my country nor on the mainstream media. Beware the internet is garbage in, garbage out always!! Thank u

I just wonder too because the last I knew was that he was flown to France by the cameroonian government and the pictures were out.

So this sort of news without international media reporting it is not credible.

Having Come out of coma, Liverpool football club and her sporting legends all sent him good will messages as he heads to France (for extensive medical care) and would have by now be spending condolences if it were true. Of course, coming out of coma doesn't mean he will pull through, though that is what we hope for but I lost my only sister at 37 in a similar situation.

Actually, by the time you probably think it's getting better, it can relapse which is usually costly. So if this is true, sporting media will spread the news like crazy, so OP please don't be quick to spread news like this. Be guided!

I wish rigobet all the best.

Damilolababy:
Hmm

True!!

All in all, i like the news if it's true o

That one go be minus one thing to worry about.

gidgiddy:
The states should be scrapped, no more Governors, no President and commander in chief, no Godfathers, no Senate. Instead, what we should have only Local Governments or provinces, house of represenatives headed by a ceremonial president, a prime minister who is appointed and removed by parliament. .

This is so funny! I agree with you in the area of confederation as I believe it will work. However, make u sef see wetin you write naa. Scrap this, scrap that! It is not possible!!! Isn't it why things will never work? Now you are coming to my point.

Forget about the colour advertisement, we all know ladies like certain colours such as pink, rose, lilac, purple, yellow or even white. But trust me, even though Na black you buy for the babe, she go jump collect am. Na i-phone 7 naa.
