PoliticsRe: President Goodluck Jonathan Should Resign? by lovejo(m): 3:26pm On Dec 29, 2011
We wil make this country ungovernable for GEJ. Now it is happening why can't we think beyond bias and go down to the root of this sage.
What is the motive of boko haram, christianity or tribalism.
If GEJ resign that means he is a loser and they have accomplished their aims, elite protect BOKO HARAM, they finance then and they only want to ridicule him in front of the whole world as they are doing, house divided against itself can not stand, no unity in ascension of power of GEJ and many other issue.

I won't care if their action backfire because after 2015 , no northerner can rule in peace in Nigeria again except the SE and SW, so technically there will be continuity of violence that will lead to disintegration of the great country called Nigeria as predicted, but it may not happen in 2015 but before 2020.

Even if there would be 2 toll gates there, the first one should be an access pint where your charge will start counting and the second one you will pay for the good road you have enjoy from the first toll gate to second tol gate, this is how it is done in advance world, you can't just charge people for what they did not use.
PoliticsRe: Occupy Lekki: Lekki Toll Gate Protest-update by lovejo(m): 9:29pm On Dec 17, 2011
When I passes through this road when I came to Nigeria in June I knew it was wrongly built, the first one can be justified as port of entry toll gate which i can presume normal.
Sincerely toll gates is not for residential area, it should be built at strategic entry of each major city to mark beginning of new entry, seeing those toll gates i know it will make it hard for residents just to go and shop in Shoprite.

Within a toll gate you should be able to go to your office, buy all what you need within, planning of those 3 tollgates is unfair, moreover there should be alternate route, which is as good as the main road but longer, without that the toll gate can not be justified.

poster you are guilt has charged, grin grin grin grin grin

Learn to live where there are few blacks, or where the population of 9ja are not outrageous, i definitely know you are living in KEPONG, i read news everyday and this happens in Kepong.

Think of your safety and future before choosing to stay where you can be arrested base on concentration of black, no human right lawyer or public lawyer to fight for any innocent Nigeria.
They do not hate us because of scam, but because of our lack of ethics and no egards for simple law, common sense is not common among most 9ja here, i know what i'm saying. When Malaysian ranks the list of country with scam or doing dirty deals, Nigeria is not in the 1st ten, but Nigeria are the one living with high exotic lives, 9ja are the ones given the police man money without committing any crime, so now they have seen us as cash cow.


In anything you do, apply wisdom it helps a lot.

6 month jail before deportation, and if no one is able to raise get you the ticket the person will be there until he has the ticket, only if you are arrested illegally, if the person go there himself, it can be sorted out without prison sentence, but he must be ready to pay and leave the country, Human Right Abuse is only problem here, which is common in most asian countries.

Foreign AffairsRe: Accommodation For Nigerians In Ghana As Costly As Gold by lovejo(op): 10:11am On Oct 26, 2011

Foreign AffairsAccommodation For Nigerians In Ghana As Costly As Gold by lovejo(op): 7:10am On Oct 26, 2011
REPUBLIC of Ghana, whose President is Professor John Attah Mills, is a neighbouring country to Nigeria. It is one of the strongest members of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) after Nigeria (the giant of Africa), with over 22 million population.

Ghana, in recent times, has attracted the attention of international communities across the world as a result of the discovery of crude oil, her political stability, thriving democracy which has also made her president the toast speaker at international conferences across the world.

Another side attraction as far as Ghana is concerned, is the adequate security of life and property-which to a large extent has inadvertently facilitated the influx of foreign investors to Ghana, which is responsible for the promotion of the country's consistent economic growth; resulting in the reduction of rate of unemployment in Ghana, against what is being experienced in her big brother country-Nigeria.

As if that is not enough, Ghana's reputation in the world today-as one of the most peaceful countries in Africa has not only heightened the positive image of the country formerly known as Gold Coast, but has also encouraged the massive influx of foreigners across the globe, majority of which are Nigerians.

Republic of Ghana’s population statistics as of 2008 revealed that over one million Nigerians lives in Ghana while over 300 foreigners, mostly Nigerians, are serving different times in prisons for various offences such as kidnapping, armed robbery, rape, child trafficking, etc.

With the policy of ECOWAS, which encourages state members’ citizens to travel to a member state to trade or reside without a visa, is apparently one of the reasons why different categories of Nigerian businessmen and women, artistes, actors, actresses, management consultants and students have relocated to Ghana for more clients and to savour the guarantee of lives and their properties, since kidnapping of Nigerian high profile personalities is now the order of the day.

As simple as getting a resident permit in Ghana could be, after spending three months in the country, you would still be amazed at the rate of Nigerians who default. But the case is not as easy when it comes to securing accommodation, not to talk of the exorbitant rent demanded as soon as the landlord or agent deciphers you are a Nigerian.

Often times, the exorbitant charges are not even the most scaring thing but the demand for three to four years rent payment-which is often asked to be paid in dollars in some regions like Accra, Kumasi, Koforidua and other high commercial valued cities in Ghana.

Not escaping the traps of fake agents is another mistake a foreigner could not afford to make. The questions foreigners like me often ask on issues like this are; why is accommodation so expensive in these regions? Why is it more difficult for Nigerians to get accommodation? How can a foreigner get genuine real estate agents, amidst many dubious agents that flood the city of Accra?

Though the answers to these questions are in the air, the lesson therein was learnt from mistakes victims have made over the years, which many people aspiring to travel to Ghana may learn from.

The fact that Accra is the state capital of the Republic of Ghana where many events, business opportunities, top class personalities, tourists centers and great edifices are rooted, make it one of the reasons why there are more demands for accommodation, where few are available; which according to the law of economics results in the higher the cost.

To decipher a genuine real estate agent requires that the person who claims to be an agent in question has a registered company, and also belongs to the body of his profession - which will go a long way in proving his level of integrity. Secondly, never pay any agent in advance without seeing the accommodation and obtaining a receipt for it .


Musiliu Obanikoro, Nigerian Ambassador to Ghana

Another challenge peculiar to Nigerians in Ghana searching for accommodation is the low trust of Nigerians by landlords and real estate agents. According to a Nigerian, Mrs Funmi Opare, who is married to a Ghanaian pastor, ''many Ghanaian landlords and agents have had bitter experiences in leasing their properties to Nigerians in the past, and therefore regretted it; either through the mis-use of the properties, owing and leaving their country or state thereafter or not complying with the rules and regulations, which have made securing an accommodation a serious task for an average Nigerian.''

In the effort of this writer to confirm the groanings of some Nigerian students and workers living in Ghana, Mr Adeyemi Adeleke, an international officer for Global Education Counselling in Accra, Ghana said, ''we Nigerians here have been reaping from fruits of the bad deeds of other Nigerians to landlords and agents in the past, which have not only made it more difficult for us to get an accommodation , but also made it more expensive''

Asking if it is possible for one to disguise as non- Nigerian, he said, '' the minute you start speaking, they would decipher it in your accent and some would say it to your face right there that the landlord doesn’t want a Nigerian.''

Mr Adeyemi, while stating his personal experience revealed how he secured a three bedroom flat. '' It wasn't a small task when I was seeking an accommodation and after getting one, I had to sign an agreement that I wouldn't be taking any other person in to stay with me, except my family.''

Speaking with another student, West, he said '' before I was given the one-room self contained, I was made to sign an agreement that I would not allow any person to live with me. In the agreement, my girlfriend is permitted to stay with me for a week while friends are permitted to stay for a couple of days. It can be frustrating though, having a room and not being able to take in a friend who doesn't have any'' he added.

[b]In a chat with one of the landlords, who is based in Canada, Mr Opare Atipaga, but has a mansion in Koforidua, he said he chose to make his house strictly available for Nigerian students because his house is near a popular university in that region, All Nations University. '' When I was looking for people to rent out my apartments to, what everybody told me was ''don't take in Nigerians'' and I asked them why? And they told me, ''those students are not disciplined, they wouldn't follow the rules'' and this reminds me of the year I left Ghana for Germany to school at the age of 24 and I am in my 50s now. When blacks were looking for accommodation, no whites took us in simply because they judged us by our colour and rumours they had heard about us.

“But I can remember that the room I later got was full of blacks and amongst them were Nigerians and these Nigerians were good people. And since then I have promised myself that when I build a house, I will not judge people by their colour. The issue is this, if one black man messes up, he's the one that is meant to be thrown out - not all the blacks, not the innocent ones; and that is the order I gave my agent.''[/b]

In spite of all the challenges and apparent resistance, the influx of Nigerians into Ghana on a yearly basis still raises concern.

As I said earlier, no government since 1986 existed without having an official exchange rate and a black market exchange rate, it was not a creation of Abacha, but simply market forces created by the differnce between demand for the dollar an the supply of dollar.

During Abacha regime dollar is not sold  at 22 naira all most claimed here, it is 80 naira at black market where the citizen can buy it. Only CBN sold it @ 22 naira and average citizen don't have the chance, don't judge it with 22 naira. Even now the ratE CBN sold dollar to bank and bureau de change is not the cheaper than the rate we can trade dollar in black market.
