Twitter is not choosing Ghana for the infrastructure.

Infact Nigeria has a much more advanced tech ecosystem than Ghana, most of which was built by the Nigerian Private sectors.

Twitter chose Ghana because it has a progressive govt with stable policy system.

President akufo addo has a world-class team.

At this rate, If we don't start electing progressive govts, we would lose it all to Ghana.

What yeye infrastructure does Nigeria have? Please name it!

Airports? Roads? Which one?

Coupled with that the country is on the verge of disintegration or at least, is prone to violence.

It is no coincidence Ghana got ACFTA hq and now Twitter hq.

Na IT ecosystem Twitter wan chop?

Only portfolio investments come into Nigeria now. Twitter can't commit to an economic, political and socially volatile country that lacks infrastructure

Crtitcise PDP all you want, but they were pro-business.

They are highly corrupt, but they were smart enough to just let business run itself.
The PDP logo was bribe us as much as you want, but once you are in, we will not disturb your business or investment.
We will try and help you succeed.

As bad as they were, it was still better for the common man than now.

GDP growth rate of 7% is not a coincidence.

We were the largest recieprients of foreign investments in Africa just less than 7 years ago.

Right now, I don't think we will ever get to the largest in West africa, let alone compete with the likes of Rwanda and Kenya.

Rwanda is on beast mode.

Giant of Africa Twitter did the right thing or else those evil boiz would kidnap their staffs

Exactly, Nigeria is no longer perceived as a safe place for business.

Ghana deserves this. Though they have their socio-political issues but they're focused unlike a country that lacks vision. I no kuku mention name.

Digitalstarlite:
Dis jack is mad

Nope he is not
He doesn't want his staffs killed
Nigeria isn't safe

No sane person will bring his investment into a territory inhabited by so many Islamic extremists and ayatollahs.

The vegetable in Abuja presently hibernating in the UK has turned a once beautiful country into Yemen.

He has practically taken Nigeria 20 years backward.

That stupid guy they call presidential aspirant, what's his name sef, damn that stupid idiot that said we should trade cowtocurrency..sheu bastard, na you cause am o, you and your kanyamata madam

More of security concerns I believe..

budaatum:
Pity we lack the infrastructure, which collectively we have not built, but twitter might still staff it with Nigerians if we have the individual skills.

Pvibe007:
Go to Ghana. Aren’t u wise

Don't understand what you meant by God to Ghana sir....I am open a show room in Lagos before end of the year...

Reason ... As a champion for democracy, Ghana is a supporter of free speech, online freedom, and the Open Internet, of which Twitter is also an advocate. Furthermore, Ghana’s recent appointment to host The Secretariat of the African Continental Free Trade Area aligns with our overarching goal to establish a presence in the region that will support our efforts to improve and tailor our service across Africa.”


“Whenever we enter new markets, we work hard to ensure that we are not just investing in the talent that we hire, but also investing in local communities and the social fabric that supports them. We have already laid foundations through partnerships with Amref Health Africa in Kenya, Afrochella in Ghana, Mentally Aware Nigeria Initiative (MANI) in Nigeria, and The HackLab Foundation in Ghana. As part of our long-term commitment to the region, we’ll continue to explore compelling ways we can use the positive power of Twitter to strengthen our communities through employee engagement, platform activation, and corporate giving

4k music video ke? Animation?

Studio247:

Juliusmalema:
That's good.
Great nation of Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah doing great.

It was here that I stated unequivocally that South Africa, Ghana are the real giants of Africa.

I went further to add Cameroon, Rwanda and other developed civilization in africa as the real giants of Africa

Nigeria been termed Giant of Africa is done by Nigerians themselves and not other countries. You guys are the ones massaging your egos by calling yourselves giants of Africa with fake population been dished out by Population commission without census.

Any sane human must do anything possible to break away from anything called Nigeria or forever remain yoked with backwardness.

As a Nigerian, I heartily agree with everything you say. Nigeria na abgaya... big for nothing. It makes absolute sense for Twitter to be in Ghana... despite our size, things are made too difficult here, for no damn reason. Constant light is an issue, fuel for gen will be scarce now and then, then add the insecurity and the fact that police will harass staff for having laptops.

Intellectual integrity and freedom of speech actually mean something in Ghana, not in this zootocracy.

The AFCTA is not an investment.
Most times smaller countries get those political edifices to give a sense of netruality and belonging.

The EU headquarters is not Germany. It's is in Brussels, Belgium.
FIFA is in Switzerland.

Those are associations, not investments.

Twitter is an investment.
I don't see any special infrastructure in Ghana that Nigeria does not have.

We have the bigger tech sector, the bigger pool of skilled engineers, e.t.c.

Twitter is not going to Ghana to enjoy infrastructure.
It's Africa after all.

What Ghana has going for them is policy.
Sound business policy and and an athmosphere that welcomes investment.

In Africa, that is key.
Africa is made up of shit hole Countries, but sound policy will make you stand out.
Investors will be willing to manage your poor infrastructure.

That was what Nigeria used to enjoy years ago.
Sound economic policy and climate that investors can bank on.
It's gone now.

During the end sars protest, members of the Buhari govt were threatening Twitter.
One abokii even sued them in Nigeria.

That is not infrastructure deficit. That is just poor business climate.

SarkinYarki:
Hmm Buhari has finished this country ,Nigeria has more internet user than almost the whole of africa combined but because of Buharis very poor leadership Twitter has no choice than to go to ghana that doesn't even have as much internet users as Borno state .... Can we blame twitter? I mean people can even get sim cards to buy in NIGERIA..I mean even Wizkid lives in ghana now

I am not a fan of Bihari, but let us say the truth, Buhari alone is not to blame for our lack of infrastrural development. Previous administration failed to consolidate on the infrastructure left behind by our colonial masters.

That is the reason why Nigeria is where it is today.

Good news

GeneralPula:
It’s all politically influenced..

And it cause Ghana is still dancing to USA tune..

apc ran lagos aground! lets not talk about nigeria! its a mess

Count Cameroon out! They are very much backward.

As is expected, this is business, giant of Africa without stability, good governance, and proper infrastructure. It'll be foolish to expect foreign direct investment in such giant.

These 3 factors played a vital role against us.
1) Banditry
2) Kidnappings
3) Lack of stable electricity

Kayanmatoroo:
Thought he visited Nigeria a while ago

Tau as oga no enjoy 24hour power supply.. that's y he divert to Ghana .can't blame him .

Compare the competence and qualifications of the members of president Akufo Addo's team, and that of Buhari.

And Akufo Addo wins 10/10.

It's not even rocket science.

Why are they neglecting Nigeria?

Even their vice president is better than Nigeria's vice president.

Vice president Bawumia spearheaded the year of return that brought billions of dollars to Ghana and opened Ghana to world.

Ahamefuna0001:

Afamefuna, You don't need to agree with me. I always pride myself as been fair and Just in my submissions which everyone knows.

Nigeria was designed by God for greatness, but our greed, foolishness, religious wickedness destroyed his plan.

Nigeria will have special hell because Baba God will be angry with Nigerians.

when we get old and never discovered our collective greatest God blessed us with as a nation, it's means we have collectively failed on our assignment on Earth.
It's not by how you appear in public as a righteous people but by your deeds and defending the truth, all will be judged irrespective of your religion and race

Associations bring investments!

It is obvious educating people like you is not worth the effort.

Germany also has the European Central Bank, Frankfurt to be precise. There is an organisation on security located in Munich. Several international organisations have their headquarters in Germany or European presence.

Nigeria is a failed state but people like you will keep on defending her. It does not in any way surprise me.

What Nigeria needs is someone that can drastically reduce corruption while restoring the ease of business and economic dynamism that PDP brought to the economy.

Don't change the economic policy of the PDP too much.
It works.

Just tweak it a bit by reducing waste and corruption drastically.

That is why Peter obi appeals to me.

He is the only one I have seen with the right blend of economics and integrity.
