i have said this in all my post about this whole brouhaha.......Nigeria is a limping lion, that doesn't mean you compare her to a dog, if Nigeria should only utilize 30% of her wealth, Africa will bow, just 30%.....I hope we get it right some day soon.

Federal Government should keep the land border close even if we are to buy local rice at #30,000 per bag.

So you mean with all their gra gra saying "Nigerians are this and that" they are feeding fat on Nigerian. They victimize Nigerian in 2018 by frustrating Nigerian business:

Now we only close our door and burglar proof small, they are crying.

Word of advise:

We have enough land available for factories in Nigeria, come and build your factories here.
Lebanese importing cars to Benin, Nigeria have enough land to setup your car mart.
If your problem is electricity or insecurity, we are working toward improvement.

Next on the agenda Mr. President, Immigration need to start checking for illegal residence in Nigeria.

Because Nigerians are foolish people, we leave our own country to go invest in enemy territory. Even their universities there that is not up to standard Nigerians pay $10000 there but if UNILAG increase school fees to just N200k we go protest. Our problem is not corruption but lack of love and Patriotism for Nigeria.

From the slogan, the spirit to work things out might begins.

Simply not true if we view economic realities on the ground which is that Nigeria's benevolent attitude and commitment to local trade has seen us lose more than we gain trading with nations like Ghana. You need to show me what Ghana supply us that we will be crippled without and then explain how , as one example, a disruption in the natural gas we supply them would not have an immediately detrimental and costly effect on their economy.

https://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/business/Ghana-Gas-owes-Nigeria-160m-642390#

Ghana Gas owes Nigeria $160m

Ghana Gas owes a total of $160m for gas supplied to its largest power producer, Volta River Authority, from Nigeria through the West Africa Gas Pipeline.

N-Gas Limited, a company owned by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, Chevron and Shell, buys gas from oil companies in Nigeria and transport it to Ghana through the $1bn WAGP.

The pipeline, which is operated by the West Africa Pipeline Company Limited, was built to supply natural gas from Nigeria to customers in Benin, Togo and Ghana.

N-Gas has an off-take agreement with Ghana to supply 120 million standard cubic feet of gas per day to the VRA. But supply to the country had fallen short of the contractual volume in recent years.

“There is a current arrangement between the gas suppliers and the off-taker that the volume will be 60mmBtu,” the General Manager, Corporate Affairs, West Africa Gas Pipeline Company Limited, Harriet Wereko-Brobby, told our correspondent in response to questions sent via a text message.

She said the off-taker (VRA) had established a payment security arrangement for gas consumed to halt “debt accumulation going forward.”

“There is still an outstanding debt of around $160m to be paid to the supplier, N-Gas, and it is expected that about $30m will be paid shortly,” Wereko-Brobby added.

GhanaWeb recently reported that the volume of gas supplied to Ghana from Nigeria for power production had reduced by about 50 per cent.

It said the situation had been attributed to the inability of Ghana to settle its long-standing debts as stipulated in the gas supply contract, and vandalism of gas pipelines in Nigeria.

The Board Chairman, VRA, Kweku Awotwi, was quoted to have said, “We are at about half of what we have been contractually promised, which is not good enough. There are many reasons for that: the vandalism of pipelines and the fact that we have not paid our bills. We owe them about GH180m; what do you expect them to do?

Yes. Once upon a time and hopefully the country will go back there. My parents are from Osun state, I’m a Nigerian. It’s the only home I have. It’s only right that I wish her well for my own sake and for the sake of my coming generations.

I’m trying to quote all my mentions but can’t and I don’t know why.

@adenigga you are going to eat the goods of this nation and your generations to come.

Let it affect Nigeria from now till thy Kingdom come... We are too complacent as a people and nation.

How can you ever move forward if all you do is depend heavily on importation??!... How and when do you begin to really grow local content and industry??!...

In times like these, things will get harder and harsher due to the compelling and consequent pains of forced change and subsequent growth (call it growing pains, if you please)... Industrialization and self dependence are the sole routes to economic revival... The death of the oil industry is a forgone conclusion...

Nigeria must become self sufficient, or die economically.
it depends on government policies and favourable tax system. To build industrial estates in Nigeria is not the problem at all Infact there are plans to build industrial estates not funded by the government but my fear is the policies to protect businesses.operating in Nigeria can be hell.....

True talk. Face our local tormentors whose incompetence leads to the closure of university, to adversely affect the graduation date of our children, we will never do. Instead we prefer to pay money sending our children to Ghana to receive education substandard to what is obtainable in Nigeria merely because we are cowards who cannot hold our leaders accountable. Why won't Ghanaians and others not mouth off to us in Africa whereas when we are all in nations where opportunity abound and playing field is level (like UK, USA et al) they cannot even keep up with Nigerians. Which other Africans can achieve the devastating achievement and record revealed below in the USA that Nigerians did?

https://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2019/06/17/olulade-star-among-nigerian-medical-graduates-at-howard-university/




Olulade star among Nigerian medical graduates at Howard University

Recently, Nigerians made a record at Howard University, with 46 of them among the 96 graduating medical students.Out of the 27 awards, Nigerians also won 16.

Undeniably, the star of the graduating Nigerians was Olumide Olulade, who graduated first in his class in the College of Medicine.

As profiled by newsroom.howard.edu, Olulade followed the path to Howard through the example of family members. His brother graduated with a Howard medical degree in 2008. His mother graduated from the Howard University College of Pharmacy in the class of 1977.

He plans to pursue a career in interventional radiology.
