Who gives a fvck what you think? Shitnigeria is a certified sh1thole. End of story! To be honest, the way you people speak about your dustbin country, I am often tempted to ask if it is the same shitnigeria I know like the back of my hand. SMH. I pray God opens your eyes to see the truth!

Cajetanspeaks:
The way ghana is hyped on the internet makes me to wonder if the ghana i know very well is different from the one on the internet.

all4naija:

Nonsense upon nonsense!

Cajetanspeaks:
The prof is right, visit ghana and you will be shocked at the level of underdevelopment in that country. The man is exposed and well travelled and knows what he is saying.

you'll be shocked at the level of underdevelopment in Ghana? Stop smoking weed,huh? Gi check the United Nations Human Development Index and you'll see how your pathetic shithole is ranked against Ghana

Not a single university in your armpit country featured in the top 700 universities list,which had the University of Ghana

What is this mudder fuggerz saying? Typical shitnigerian magg0t talking from its AnUs,huh? How are Ghanaians cowards? Is it because they are not into armed robberies, kidnappings, acts of terrorism and all the crap that goes on in your Shithole? Fuckeduppedness you shitnigerians are the cowardly type. Why do you think abacha n Babangida ruled you mudder fuggerz like animals. There are things I did in your sh1thole that I got away with but can't do here in Ghana because people will challenge you! Ghanaian generally dont look for people's trouble the way you fools do, but you'll know the true Ghanaian when you look for his/her trouble. Say yes sir for this education,goat

all4naija:
Smh...Most Ghanaians are cowards! I repeat, most Ghanaians are cowards!

point of correction.....nigerians are not taking over anything in Ghana! the so-called takeover only exist in your fertile imagination,huh?

Kennydoc:
Guy, say d truth when you see it. This has nothing to do with insulting and cursing anybody. Did you read the article at all?

Most of the Igbo guys making all those boasts do it online, or among themselves (fellow Igbos). Igbo men in Lagos don't go about boasting to their Yoruba neighbours that they are superior, neither can they even dream of it in the north.

The markets are dominated by Igbos, and many Yorubas are getting jealous. While I understand their jealousy,[s] just like the Ghanaian lady that posted a few days ago of how Nigerians are taking over big businesses in Ghana, their approach is very bad and wrong. Yorubas run big businesses in another country (Ghana), but are not harassed the way Igbos are harassed in their own country.[/s]

To solve this whole crisis in Lagos and the overpopulation of Lagos, the FG should be willing to open up other cities for business, thereby decongesting Lagos. International airports and Seaports should be empowered in the South South and South East, so that some attention should be diverted from Lagos. That will go a long way in making Lagos more habitable, and solve some of these ethnic tensions, as some non-indigenes will certainly find their way out.

Lagos can't claim all the economic goodies of Nigeria, and then Yorubas won't want Igbos to enjoy the benefits alongside.

depraved, shitty deluded lunantics! someone, bring me my fools. I am in need of entertainment

Pot calling the kettle black,huh? fuckeduppedness. who doesn't know shitnigerians are the most foolish people on earth?

Fuelish goat! LOL there are more 'dark people' in that your shithole than there are in the whole of Ghana!

all4naija:
Those are Ghanaians in Nigeria. My people aren't as dark as those.

This innocuous post will soon attract hate comments from pathetic, impoverished mudder fuggerz suffering from terminal insanity. Such a pity

Yes, Ghana is beautiful and welcoming to people with good intentions. Unfortunately, most of your people have only bad thoughts and intentions for Ghana/Ghanaians. Hahahaha fuckeduppedness

[quote author=Lezzlie
post=37680125]Behold the wailing and weeping of your president in the UK where he was giving reasons why the UK shouldn't stop giving aids and grants to feed ghana. Please read for my pleasure and your horror :


Ghana’s President says Nigeria’s tall list of trade prohibitions has stunted regional trade and by extension, frustrated economic integration in the sub region.

(SUMMARY :we determine the economic temperature of the entire region )

John Mahama told an audience of the Africa Summit at the London School of Economics that he found it befuddling that Africa’s most populous country is not respecting the Trade Liberalisation Scheme of the Economic Community of West African States.

Already seen as an economic giant in Africa, the country just became the Continent’s biggest economic hub after a rebasing exercise which resulted in the oil-rich West African country nudging off South Africa from the top.

Its GDP for 2013 totalled 80.3 trillion naira (£307.6bn: $509.9bn). That compares with South Africa's GDP of $370.3bn at the end of 2013.

Its GDP now includes previously uncounted industries like telecoms, information technology, music, online sales, airlines, and film production. (SUMMARY :we are top players on the continent not just west africa)

Mr Mahama says Nigeria’s protectionist measures do not bode well for regional trade and integration, adding that the country has more responsibility to foster the integration agenda since it wields tremendous economic power in the sub region.
(SUMMARY : This is a clear, and open admission of our superiority over you and a subtly plea from your president to free you from the colonialist,UK. We are ever ready to unshakle your chains of economic want, the question is are you ready?)



“I believe that Nigeria has a certain kind of responsibility in West Africa, because it is the largest economy and the most populous country. ” (SUMMARY :Again an open confession of our might and power over you. This is interesting )

The Ghanaian President added that: “Nigeria has nothing to fear from Ghana in terms of competition. Nigeria has nothing to fear from Cote D’lvoire in terms of competition. Nigeria has nothing to fear from Benin or Togo or Niger in terms of competition and yet year in, year out, there is a prohibition list,” he bewailed. CONCLUSION : Do you need anyone to tell you that you're the world's stupidest buffoon without a sense of hierarchy?

Foolish son of Ghana.[/quote]

Human-eating savage human barbecues! Shitnigeria is a crazy asylum filled with lunatics

Stop smoking weed, fool! deluded lunatic called mad cow only God will deliver you from terminal insanity

Stvpid bastardz, scammers,spammers, 419ners! Nuke them all!

I thought by now Nairaland would have evicted all you Charley's..

I see you are still hanging around Nigerians trying to feel among..


What kind of life expectancy can Ghanaians have when you only eat Kenkey and Shitto all your life?

Fuckeduppedness what a trashy piece of crap! Dele Momodu and his junk journalism! I guess the magg0t is desperately scheming for some Buhari appointment,huh?

President Mahama receives all visiting leaders at the airport, except where there are several presidents coming to Ghana at the same time. So there was nothing really special about Mahama personally receiving Buhari at the airport.

2nd, about 95% of the people at the Accra airport when Buhari arrived, were nigerians. Apart from Mahama and his officials, most of the remaining Ghanaians were part of a dance group that normally entertains visiting leaders at the airport.

3rd, Momodu completely exaggerated the role of nigerian banks in Ghana. There are about 6 nigerian banks out of the 36 registered banks in Ghana. No nigerian bank is among the top 10 banks in Ghana!

The biggest investor in the ghanaian property market is a nigerian? hahahahaa can Momodu tell me how much of the Ghanaian property market he controls? And where are his properties located in Ghana?

Charter House 'controls' the Ghanaian entertainment sector because they organise Miss Malaika etc? And how often do they organise their shows? Perhaps twice a year? Meaning outside the Miss Malaika and the beauty pageant, no other forms of entertainment exist in Ghana? The dude needs to get his head examined!

For glo, the least said about then the better. Glo is the least popular among the 5 existing telecommunications companies in Ghana! I won't be surprised if they decide to quit Ghana because I don't see them succeeding in Ghana. And it is a big lie that glo is sponsoring Ghana football. The company offered to sponsor the Ghanaian football league for 2 years when they got in but refused to pay the sponsorship money! classic nigerian 419! Anyone with evidence of glo sponsoring Ghana football in any shape or form in the past 2 years should produce it!

And did he say Sahara and Oando control the Ghanaian oil market? Hahahaha the most foolish comment I've heard in a long time! How much market share do they have? Oando owns about 16 filling stations across Ghana. Even my friend who owns filling stations owns st least 20 across Ghana! Fuckeduppedness

This kind of attitude is why nigerians are not doing too well in Ghana. Take the oil and gas industry in Ghana, for example. nigerians have had lots of oil and gas experience and were expected to feature greatly in Ghana new oil and gas sector. But what is the reality? The reality is that there are very few nigerian companies in the oil and industry here.

Ghanaians are not stvpid! When you, a foreigner, start claiming to 'own' and 'control' when in truth you don't, leave you host very suspicious and that exactly is what is happening to nigerians in Ghana! Hahahahaha fuckeduppedness

marked10:
Fellow Africans, these are interesting times for our Continent. Believe me, great things are beginning to happen. I’m sure you’re wondering about the basis for my boundless optimism on this page today. I will elucidate. For a very long time, Africa’s biggest nation, Nigeria, was seen as a nuisance and treated by and large like a pariah. It was believed that we didn’t set good examples for the smaller countries to follow. Coups and counter-coups reigned supreme. Several African countries, especially on the West coast, were badly afflicted and affected.

Leadership became more of a curse than a blessing. One of my favourite African authors, Ayi Kwei Armah, took pessimism to the limit when he wrote his novel and titled it “The Beautiful Ones Are Not Yet Born”.
This Book and its title came to my mind last Monday as President Muhammadu Buhari’s Presidential Jet, called “Nigeria Air Force” landed in the beautiful city of Accra, Ghana at the Presidential Wing of the Kotoka International Airport. The President disembarked to the tuneful martial music provided by the Ghanaian military.

The setting was picturesque! Right from the gates where heavily armed members of the Ghanaian military and security forces manned the perimeter and ushered all guests through an exceptional security screening system that had been temporarily erected for the special occasion.gaily dressed Nigerian women were on parade. Ghanaian traditional Drummers (with their Fontomfrom), performers and musicians were on hand to entertain guests as they arrived. The VIPs were ushered into a cosy waiting room where biscuits, coffee, tea, water and minerals were liberally served. The carnival-like atmosphere was infectiously captivating.

The strongman of Nigeria was coming to town and the government of Ghana was not treating it lightly. Nigerian leaders have always been highly regarded here. Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has the longest road in Accra named after him and he and President John Agyekum Kufuor were instrumental to the Nigerian Banking explosion in Ghana. Therefore, anything and everything to make President Muhammadu Buhari’s visit as stately as possible was contemplated and actualised commendably by his hosts
The planning was clinically executed. The Chief Host, President John Dramani Mahama, the ebullient and Princely leader of The Republic of Ghana, left no stone unturned. He was physically present at the airport to welcome his august visitor. President Buhari was given a quintessential Akwaaba treat.

Please, let’s paint a vivid picture of the airport experience. The appointed time for touch-down eventually came. The big Boeing plane ferrying Nigeria’s President and his entourage descended smoothly on the runway. The jubilant crowd exploded in wild excitement. President Mahama walked briskly out of his lounge on a long red carpet towards the Nigeria Air Force One. He waived triumphantly at the crowd. I always find his humility very disarming. How he takes all the heat with uncommon equanimity impresses me endlessly. As I soliloquised about him, it seemed he suddenly looked in my direction somewhat telepathically. We had not seen in a long while and he just detoured momentarily and hurriedly shook hands with me before continuing his journey to the plane. Standing close were Femi Adeshina, Special Adviser, Media – who had dinner with Dr Kayode Fayemi, Sola Osunkeye MD of the Sun Newspapers Ghana and Prince Adedamola Aderemi at my home the night before. I was truly honoured and felt highly privileged.

President Buhari came into the warm embrace of President Mahama. Nigerian officials and dignitaries who assisted President Mahama to welcome President Buhari to Ghana included amongst others, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, who is the Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr Bulus Lolo, with experienced diplomat the Nigerian High Commissioner to Ghana, Ambassador Seyi Onafowokan and Dr Kayode Fayemi, former Governor of Ekiti State. Immediately the President and his entourage stepped off the aircraft the National anthems of both countries were played and then President Buhari took the salute after reviewing the military parade.

The Ghanaian artillery complemented the colourful military ceremonies with their booming guns reverberating through the sombre skies.

That session over, the two Presidents waltzed like Siamese twins towards the dignitaries, Ghanaians and Nigerians alike, plus members of the diplomatic corps. First on were members of the Ghanaian privilegentsia, The Ministers, Service Chiefs, politicians, foreign affairs personnel and highly placed civil servants. They had been asked to turn out in significant numbers to welcome Africa’s number one leader, President Buhari. Next in line were the Diplomatic Corps and then came the Nigerian delegation. It was certainly a good time to be a proud Nigerian.

Senator Hadi Siriki was at the head of the Nigerian welcoming team. Next to him was my humble self and then my bosom friend and the Prince of Ile-Ife, Prince Adedamola Aderemi, who as well as being a Director Of Ovation International is also Director of Energy Bank Ghana owned by Nigeria’s Jimoh Ibrahim.

I was happy to shake hands with my President. Who wouldn’t want to seize that chance as frequently as possible? Then I got a pleasant surprise again from President Mahama. “Dele Momodu is our own in Ghana” the Ghanaian leader said as he introduced me to my own leader. President Buhari exploded in laughter revealing his beautiful gap-tooth. It remains a miracle how the Ovation photographer, Ben Dzaka, managed to capture that rare moment for posterity. He must have been possessed of the Holy Spirit as he fired his camera like a sub-machine gun despite being jostled by security men and other photo merchants who were just as eager to capture our dear President in a relaxed and jovial mood.

For me, President Mahama’s gesture was the ultimate acknowledgement, and seal of appreciation for the modest contributions of the Ovation International team in bringing Nigerians closer to Ghanaians. A close relationship accompanied by mutual distrust had always existed between both countries. When Ovation International birthed in Ghana nearly 15 years ago, there was not a single Nigerian bank in the country. The commonest excuse then was that Nigerians were synonymous with scams, drugs and all the bad behaviour which was stereotypically topical at a time.

The anti-Nigerian sentiment was not limited to just one country it cut tearfully across the African continent and beyond. It was our lot to work assiduously to correct and obliterate some of the frontal and subliminal campaign of calumny against our country. Dr Tunji Kolapo and Senator Musiliu Obanikoro performed wonders during their tenures as High Commissioners with the support of the Nigerian Professionals Association led by the then Otunba Mike Ajayi, now the paramount monarch of Erinmo Kingdom.
The pages of Ovation International showcased our hard-working men and women globally and we did the same for Ghanaians. We did not discriminate.

The way and manner in which Ovation International promoted Ghana as a major tourist destination and as a conducive place for business and investment was the precursor to the flourishing inward investment Ghana enjoyed from Nigerians.
It became possible to identify the striking entrepreneurs and celebrate their giant strides. In another month or so, Africa’s global bank, United Bank for Africa, (UBA) will be rolling out the drums to celebrate its 10th anniversary as the first Nigerian bank in Ghana. That extraordinary feat was achieved by the whizz-kid of banking, Mr Tony O. Elumelu when he was Managing Director of Standard Trust Bank.

So many other Nigerian or Nigerian owned banks are now occupying eminent landscapes in Ghana. They include Zenith, GTB, First Atlantic, Access, Energy. There are other Nigerians and Nigerian entities with substantial interests in existing Ghanaian banks. The Nigerian banks record major successes in the Banking index in Ghana and are the toast of the Ghanaian banking industry for their professionalism and innovation.

The property market in Ghana witnessed a dizzying boom as many Nigerians invaded Ghana in search of choice homes and business premises. The biggest investor in properties is Mr Olu Luther King, easily the richest Nigerian resident in Ghana. The entertainment industry is controlled by Charterhouse Ghana, largely owned by Mr Iyiola Ayoade and his Ghanaian wife, Theresa. They own GHOne Television and an advertising company, Multiple Concepts. Charterhouse owns the rights to the Ghana Music Awards and Miss Malaika Ghana and it has expanded to Nigeria, Liberia, Cape Verde and others. They recently won the chunky Western Union account in West Africa.

The Oil market in Ghana is extensively controlled by Sahara Energy and Oando. The Dangote Group is making serious incursion through its cement arm. Coscharis is another big Nigerian brand on ground.
But the King of all Nigerian brands is Globacom, owned by the prodigiously gifted business Guru, Dr Mike Adenuga Jnr. GLO has firmly etched its name all over Ghana by touching everyone with its unique network. GLO has done so much to develop the local football league, and majorly fund even the Ghana Supporters Club. GLO has staged some of the A-Class events in Ghana including The GLO-CAF Awards and An Evening with Wole Soyinka and heavily branded the Ovation Red Carol when it migrated to Ghana for a couple of years. Incidentally, Ovation Red Carol is returning to Nigerian shores this year. GLO upgraded the lives of many Ghanaian showbiz personalities.

Ovation was also responsible for bringing many notable personalities to Ghana including the widely acclaimed Nigerian national leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Jagaban Borgu, who joined Ovation in celebrating its launch in Ghana, alongside the then Senate President Adolpus Wabara and Dr Bode Olajumoke, the famous philanthropist

Once the Presidents had finished exchanging handshakes and pleasantries with the welcoming Party they retired to the Presidential lounge at the airport for tea and coffee before proceeding to the Pedasue Lodge, Aburi, for a bilateral meeting between the two countries and a joint press conference addressed by both leaders.

The journey to Aburi was interesting as it afforded us the opportunity of seeing Ghana’s development firsthand. I travelled with Dr Fayemi and Prince Aderemi and we all marvelled at the fantastic road network, the pristine environment, the efficient but unobtrusive security network and the architecture that had gone into constructing the countryside.

The Pedasue Lodge, Aburi was itself a revelation. Built in the 1960s by Dr Kwame Nkrumah with additions and modifications thereafter, the Lodge is a beauty to behold. The understated splendour of the building and its tasteful décor and furnishing is matched by the exquisiteness of the vista when you take on the breath-taking view of the city and the mountainside from the balcony, as the two Presidents did before they started their meetings.

The bilateral meeting was attended by President Mahama, his National Security Adviser and former Ghana High Commissioner to Nigeria, Ambassador Alhaji Baba Kamara, who is our dear good friend, the lovely Attorney-General and Minister for Justice of Ghana, Mrs. Marietta Brew Oppong-Appiah, who dined on the same table with us, and the equally charming Minister for Foreign Affairs, Hannah Serwaa Tetteh amongst others. On the Nigerian side were President Buhari accompanied by the National Security Adviser, Major-General Babagana Monguno (rtd), Director-General of the National Intelligence Agency, Ambassador Ayo Oke, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mr Bulus Lolo and Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Defence, Aliyu Isma’Ila amongst a few other aides.

Dr Kayode Fayemi, Prince Adedamola Aderemi and I were the only other people allowed into the meeting area although we of course did not attend the meeting itself. President Mahama later came out of the meeting and spent quality time chatting with the Prince of Ile-Ife an I. It was such a great encounter as we reminisced about how I visited his home long before he became Vice President, at the invitation of Ghana’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, Mr Victor Smith. The President shocked me when he said he reads my column and even mentioned one of the titles he relished so much.

The Nigerians in the picture are mostly Yoruba people.
The Yoruba people have been the ''original'' Nigerians that had lived peacefully in Ghana for more 100 years(since pre-colonial days) before some other Nigerians started trooping to Ghana in the late 90s/2000s and started destroying the image of Nigeria/Nigerians in that country with their lawless, rude, arrogant and criminal activities and behaviour.
