AbujaFarmer:
Please can I travel through ABC without passport to Ghana and what are the likely consequences I might face.

I have already promised my wife and children that we would do our Valentine in Accra but its only me that have passport.

Please reply.

quote author=Otunba4eva post=41305510]For those intending to travel to Ghana this festive period, I learnt ABC transport is giving discount in ticket fares to intending travelers, just got the message from them.
Yes you can, but you will have to pay more. But you are going to provide a means of identification, such as national identity card, voters card etc at the point of boarding.

At the end of the day they have wasted their short career in mediocrity while Jose gets a new job with a fat pay pit from chelsea



Fxck the players
Oh, you have equally forgotten that the players too can still have other big clubs to play for and with better pay if probably sacked? He should swallow his pride, the world his watching him, and I hope you know that all this failure will simply affect his CV. Think straight pls.

I just love to read stories like the one you have posted on the thread. Thanks for posting your story. I wish your narration was a bit longer and that is why I asked you for the script at the checkpoints. I am not into any shady business and I don't even live in Nigeria.
There is no script as important as u may think, and I have been elaborate enough in answering that question. If you follow the transport company I made mention of earlier u won't be stressed at the boarders. All you need to do is obey any instruction you are given. The only way you can land yourself in trouble is when you refuse to follow instruction or you carry a contraband goods.

I saw something different here, this is a lesson to all of us that are entrepreneur or a leader, never treat your staff or followers as irrelevant because they both help you in your ladder to the top. Without them you (entrepreneur) can't be successful. Learn to apologize when you wrong them. Never feel too big to bend low. It's not a shame to recognize the fact you are wrong in some aspect, but because you value your career or business more than your ego.

Yes I was told about those place too, but I don't have much time, I budgeted five days for Ghana trip cos I still have other countries to explore. Maybe next times will give those places a trial.

Thanks Otunba4eva, can you post the script at the checkpoint. What are the questions asked?
I don't know the relevant of script here, and there is no difficult question. Off course if it's your first time they will ask you what are u going to do in Ghana, then u will tell them the purpose of you visiting Ghana. Except u have a shady business you are into. So just get your ticket and embark on your journey.

Otunba4eva, can you please give details of the Immigration Check point. Did you have to get off the bus?
There are various immigration check point on the way. But the only place you come down is at Aflao boarder, that is the last boarder to enter Ghana and u bring down your luggage for inspection before proceeding on your journey to Accra. As u can see in the pics below

nice!! Looking forward to spend my Annually leave also in Ghana. How much is the Tfare thro and fro? And is it compulsory to go with the Nigerian Pasport?
It's very cheap, its really below what I had expected initially, although the fare varies depending on your circumstances. If u have a passport only without yellow card u pay a different fee, passport with yellow card you also pay a different fee. First time traveller on a virgin passport u pay different fee too.
I travel with my passport and yellow card and I pay #17,000. If I will be traveling again I will pay #15,000 for to and fro ticket.
TravelMy Experience Traveling To Ghana By Road. by Otunba4eva(op):
I had wanted to visit a place outside Nigeria to spend 5 days out of my annual vacation leave. So I decided to visit Accra Ghana by road. On that beautiful morning my younger brother had drop me at ABC transport in second rainbow along Oshodi-Apapa express way, It was exactly 6:05am, I quickly moved into the ticketing office and booked a to and fro ticket to Ghana. At this time the first bus to Accra is about to take off on their journey to Accra, so I had no choice but to go with the second bus.
My bus left at exactly 9:25am in the beautiful TV and AC tight luxurious bus, there was less distraction from the immigration, Nigeria drug law and enforcement agency and custom officers on the road as there were no contraband goods on board. We arrive Accra at the ABC park in caprice Accra at exactly 12:46am Nigerian time the following day. The journey was very smooth and interesting, only that the bus doesn't speed atall and I think they have a speed limit that they dare not exceed. Inside the bus we were served rice and chicken with bottle water for breakfast and then corn-biscuit and small pack juice for lunch.
Accra Ghana was a beautiful place to behold, the roads were neat and all road user obey traffic sign even when no police man is attached to the traffic point. I was able to lodge in an hotel with AC, wireless network and breakfast menu at a less expensive amount compare to my country Nigeria. The hotel attendant were nice and ready to perform their duties without expecting a tips from their customers.
While in Accra I visited two lovely beach, the labardi and coco beach. Saw lots pretty ebony ladies on the beach, almost tempted as some of them starring at me like a diamond ring!
Also went to Mokola market which is a colorful and bustling place, you can buy absolutely everything. Ghana has various delicacy, I tasted kenke with groundnut soup, they have a different brand of rice from ours, it's a bit gummy when u chew, I eat it with Shito (not sure if I got the spelling correct ) pepper. Mokola market is a place you can never afford to miss in Accra. Bought some kente stuff (Ghanian native attire) right there. On my fourth day in Accra, I also visited the national museum, this museum has wonderful displays about Ghana’s culture and history including the slave-trade, and Ashanti Kingdom.
Internet subscription is so cheap in Ghana compare to my country Nigeria, u can still subscribe for unlimited data which is less than 10k. That is fantastic! Isn't it?
On the fifth day, I rested in my beautiful hotel room, while getting ready to travel back to Nigeria the next day.

folukeadebiyi:
I'm not originally a member of Nairaland, but signed up to comment on this. I have gone through this thread and I'm kinda surprised cos I visited the site: http://www.gregmattoeflnigeria.com and saw all these Freebies ish. Now, here's a quote from the site:


Now, also their price for registration is N42,500 which is the same rate of dollar exchange given the prevailing exchange rate of the TOEFL fees. It doesn't end there! They give you free text books and you get free counseling and all that amongst other freebies. I inquired somewhere where they said registration is N42,500 and free materials only for me to be told materials cost N5000 extra and lectures is between 20-40k.

But these guys are giving ALL THESE Free? Does that even make sense? Looking at their site and a bit of background check, they are Internationally renowned with lots of awards bagged and you'll see the International guys who work with them as well, so I know they are at least what they say they are.

I'm still wondering though. What's the catch?!?!!? Maybe there are some hidden charges or something? I will visit the place this week and will post my findings before the week runs out.

Sorry OP for hijacking your thread. I believe my findings will be useful as well.
At B.Y mafit, there are no hidden charges. I was also surprise too. I did my toefl exam registration with them and my score is above 80, they are very organized. Although I did it with them before they move to their new site, no text book but I was given all necessary and current materials that will aid my preparation to succeed.Lectures period is on Tuesday and Thursday respectively. But I can tell you that you won't regret registering with them. You can check them out yourself.

So think twice before you take some actions. I ask you what are those things that you are threatening him with?
