I don't know why I don't believe this story. Sounds cooked up because of the online comments about northern borders remaining open.

Crap. Pure crap! Nigeria exports financial services. Which financial services. Are you talking about nigerian banks operating in Ghana? Are you telling me that banks, insurance companies in Nigeria are kingpins and make their own rules and even control your economy? The problem with you nigerians is that you like to make yourselves more important than you are. Are you telling me that today if nigerian banks operating in Ghana close, the Ghanaian economy will collapse or even suffer?

Banks operate with depositors funds. The money banks have, don’t necessarily belong to the bank owners. They are mostly depositors funds. 2hich means the day Ghanaians who have deposited funds with nigerian banks decide to withdraw their money, that dips the end of nigerian banks.

I don’t know how it works in Nigeria, but in Ghana, it is the Bank of Ghana that controls banks in the country. The Bank of Ghana tells a bank to jump and the banks simply asks, how far. Even indigenous banks cannot challenge th3 authority of the central banks, not to talk about a foreign bank operating in Ghana.

Regarding nigerian students in Ghana, this is what I will say. Most of nigerian students studying in Ghana study in private universities, some are owned by Indians. I personally will never send my own child to a private university in Ghana, but nigerian student cannot gain admission into publicly owned universities, so they go to private ones.

The money you pay to those private universities don’t go the Ghanaian government, except the taxes those universities pay to government.

You that is claiming nigerian students pay fees in Ghana, have you done your own independent investigation about how many nigerian students are in Ghana and how much they pay? Nigerians are quoting all manner of figures, but have you done any credible research oinvestigations into the number of Nigerian students currently studying in Ghana and how much they pay? Talk is cheap. I challenge you to provide those figures, from authentic source.

The Ghanaian economy is doing very well. Currently growth is at 8%. What is growth in your own economy? Nigeria is the undisputed champions of world poverty. People are being kidnapped upnpanddown in your country, and you want to tell me about doing something about the Ghanaian economy? Have you done something about your economy?

cars are very expensive in Nigeria, we dont export cars nor rice..meet your neighbours(Togo and benin)..

Nigerians export so many things such as the financial industry (banks, insurance etc), IT, automobiles spare parts, electricals , oil and gas, Nigerian student in Ghana..

Note: These are made in Nigeria products or services I am telling you..

Let us take one sector out.. Nigerian student in Ghana, if these people are to reduce, Ghana will shake.. when Buhari came to power, he made dollars not available in Nigeria, stopped foreign transfer of money.. Nigerian student could not pay fees,had no money..You need to see Ghanaian school management thinking for alternatives..some went to Nigeria to see if it is true. Some do not know if they were to stop Nigerian students from school..That time was hell... just imagine, this was the educational sector alone, think of what will happen to Ghana economy..it shaked..

To tell you the truth, Ghanaians needs to do something for their economy..they need to run their affairs, there should be entrepreneurs, there should be industries run and owned by Ghanaians..

Ignorant fellow. Nkrumah was just another ghanian fool who wanted Africa to be just one country with him as the leader. No wonder he was killed like a rabbit. Whether you admit or not Nigeria has played more pan african role than ghana on the continent, ghana is just that bitter side kick in the corner with no usefulness. Even Zimbabwe played a major role in apartheid fight than ghana. Very useless people

Can u please educate us on how inkrumah died as rabbit cos I know inkrumah died peacefully in Romania ..?

I know your Ghana too well, I schooled, lived, worked and invested in Ghana.. so I still have respect for the country.. Your argument on Nigeria banks in Ghana is pointless. For a foreign bank even a local bank to establish in any country, that bank would pay a capitalization base fee to the central bank and this does not come cheap which is an assurance if the bank is to shutdown, the central bank can reimburse the people.. Dont make it sound like Nigerian banks came in without paying nothing and Ghanaians started depositing their money bla bla bla..

This is no arguement, you and I know that Nigerian students are much in Ghana..Ain't doing any research, you can Google it but you dont need Google ..At the time when I was studying in Ghana, paying $3500 fees in knust, Ghanaian student were paying 500 to 800ghana cedis..our population then was huge ... And you tell me foreign students dont help the economy.. a Nigerian student then, his pocket money was $1000 for a semester, 50% of that money goes to food and you tell me foreign student dont help in the economy..

And who told you Nigerians dont go to public universities in Ghana.. which Ghanaian university did you go to?

I want you to understand this, the Indians in Nigeria are the highest number of foreigners living and investing in Nigeria and it will be stupid and blind of me to say the Indians dont do nothing in our economy. If the Indians are to pull out today from any sector they are investing, Nigeria economy will shake. This is the same way Nigeria is to Ghana.. Please be matured in your writing..

This was how China and Singapore started. Our own fathers couldn't bare the pain of self sufficiency and Buhari was toppled.
God has given us a second chance.

Let us bear this little pain for a better tomorrow.
Just imagine what happened after Buhari was toppled by Babangida. IMF came in with their structural adjustment program and Nigeria was never the same again.

These people are playing the same card again, providing fake border news in the Northern part of Nigeria to cos tension.

Ghana signed an agreement with the European union to allow free trade into its territories with Nigeria in mind. Funny people! Who does that. Same with Benin and Niger with France. Neo Colonialism!

Nigeria is the most important project to these Europeans. We are the largest consumer of their useless and contaminated products.

They don't want us to have peace cos if we do, Sub Saharan Africa will be liberated from the clutches of Neo Colonialism. They have brought back the Achimota model to Ghana. Ghana has always been a slave to the Europeans, condoning every policies ask of them. These Europeans sugarcoat these Ghanaians with unverifiable and non casual index to make them happy. Yeye! You are heading for doom, Ghana!
Return your currency back to what it is or you will pay dearly for it.
These Ghanaians like to deceive themselves trying to be what they are not to feel good.

The Giant of Africa competes with no one. Steadily and painstakingly, we shall get to our dreamland. No pain, no gain!

We are the only nation in Africa that has the human capacity and capabilities to lead Africa intellectually!

Arguing with a Ghanaian on which country is better is an insult to us.
Please let's stop giving them attention.
Let them close their border too. Chikena!
We don't need talk, we need action!
Ghanaians they can argue but no action! Just talk, talk people. Loll!

Perhaps you're not aware, some Ghanaian students pay the same amount as the foreign students. They are Ghanaian students who couldn't good grades but are allowed into the university in which case they pay the same amount as you did as a foreign student. There are more of such students than all foreign students combined.

bro come on, I know the system already..you are talking about fee paying student. Fee paying student paid in Ghana cedis.. at that time , they were paying 2000 cedis.. can you compare that to $3500... even if we say they were paying 3500 cedis ,that is not equivalent to $3500.. one Nigeria student fees, will pay 3-5 Ghanaian fee paying student

You have done a lot for Ghana’s economy? I don’t get it. Nigeria dashed money to Ghana or how exactly did you do so much for the Ghanaian economy? Last year, Ghana attracted the largest FDI in West Africa, more than your country nigeria grin. Ghana is attracting far bigger investors than Nigerians can or will afford to do. Do you know how much Tullow alone has invested in Ghana in the past 10 years? Fuckeduppedness grin Go and find out. If I add all the big ticket investments into Ghana in the past 10 years, Nigeria is a small player in Ghana’s economy today. It’s painful but that is the truth grin

Even nigerian companies investing in Ghana are not doing it for charity, or are they? Investors go to where they expect to generate favourable returns. So to be frank with you, people like you should be grateful to Ghanaians for allowing your companies to even invest in their economy and making profits, which they repatriate back to your country to feed and clothe your people. Nigerian businesses in Ghana hardly do anything for the Ghanaian people. You think we don’t know what is going on,huh?

For example, your banks operating in Ghana do big social intervention activities in Nigeria, which they don’t do in Ghana. Look, you don’t know me but if I tell you just a little bit about myself you will be shocked. I know your country more than even you as a citizen so stop telling me all the crap about you going to school in Ghana etc etc.

Look at the development indices. Ghana is far ahead of Nigeria in almost everything. From life expectancy, inflationary trends, personal security, access to electricity, access to quality education, poverty levels etc etc. you Nigerians have to accept that your country is currently in a deep crisis and work urgently to bring your country from the brink. Where I sit, I fear deeply for your country. You may not agree with me, but I know nigeria well enough to be afraid for that country. Chanel all your energy into urgently pulling Nigeria back from the brink. Trying to form a superhero or superpower with Ghana is not what you need. Trust me. Fuckeduppedness grin

Talking about admissions into public universities in Ghana, let me say this. Ghanaians love to go their government-owned universities. My understanding is that universities around the world are encouraged to set aside about 10% or so of their admissions to foreign students. That is the only reason you and other nigerians get admitted into public universities in Ghana. Publicly owned universities are funded by the Ghanaian government.

Perhaps if you can tell me the big nigerian companies that are investing massively in Ghana, we can take this debate further. Let’s deal with verifiable facts, not hearsay or some dumb newspaper reports. I know what I am talking about. There is a lot of big misconceptions about nigerian businesses in Ghana. I am prepared to show how false and misplaced those reports are. Fuckeduppedness grin

Read your statement, here you are praising other FDIs but you do not praise your Ghana going out to other countries to invest. For a company to go multi national it means that they have been able to do something back home, and are major players to some extent.. keep in mind Ghana is not the only place we invest in.. There are other countries...

You are right,Nigeria is fvkedup place but in that fvkedup country we are still pushing on everything..it is in fvkedup place there are billionaires and massive wealth.. It is in that fvkedup place other countries look up to our movies,music,comedy industry.. it is that fvkedup place we still play a dominant role as Africa leading powers.. As a Nigerian I ask myself, how is it we are able to stand in that fvkedup society...some African countries who are in a fvkedup place cant still even stand but take aid to survive..

You are talking crap! Crass crap! Let me explain to you a few things. The ultimate goal of any government is to promote the welfare of its citizens. Whichever way you do it, doesn’t really matter. Also, the world has become a global village, as they say. Ghana doesn’t need to set up companies all over the place. A government has to weigh its options and work to achieve maximum benefits for its economy and people. I am sitting at the Singapore airport lobby waiting for my flight back to Ghana in a little while.

Singapore is a good example. How many big companies do they have around the world? But the Singapore economy is doing great by focusing on the service sector! Come and see Singapore has developed. grin Countries are building “smart” economies grin stop with your MUMU mentality. Ghana’s economy is growing nicely at 8%, while nigeria is struggling at less than 2% grin your economic growth is even lower than your population growth. That is disaster right there.

in 2018 Ghana bought Nigerian exports valued at over $240m while Nigeria bought Ghana imports valued at just $61m which is 4 times less than what you bought from us.

The one who buys more from the other needs the other more. Ghana needs nigeria more in order to survive while Nigeria honestly does not need you to survive.

When you buy over $240m worth of our goods while in return we only patronize $61m worth of your goods then Imagine what would happen to your country if we refuse to sell those goods to you. Your death as a nation would be slow but sure.

Hahaaa ... I have followed most of your submission concerning this border closure and you seem to have a problem with Ghanaians and Ghana as a country. Tell me what exactly is your problem with Ghana? Becos I don't get it.

I am not going to talk about which country needs which country more. But ask yourself what products does Nigeria export to Ghana that Ghana cannot get elsewhere..my brother. So if you go to buy a product at a shop and the seller is not treating you well, you cant go somewhere and get it?

Look, i have told you before that your leaders cannot afford to underrate Ghana. They cant afford to not give Ghana a preferential treatment. They cant afford to turn their back on Ghana. It will be at their own detriment. Your views as an ordinary citizen is inconsequential. Forget about all this online bickering and insults. I have always said that if Nigeria is the King, Ghana is that sparkling diamond crown.

Close that border for 20 years and Ghana will never face any economic problem. You know why? Becos Ghana will always have a way. We will look elsewhere while still working to get our goods into Nigeria..The largest market. We are like that persistent salesman whom after you have been rude to him on Monday will come back to you to ask if you will buy his goods. For him he doesn't care if the buyer thinks he needs him more or not. He is all about making sale and making his money. That is Ghana for you.

Ignorant fellow. Nkrumah was just another ghanian fool who wanted Africa to be just one country with him as the leader. No wonder he was killed like a rabbit. Whether you admit or not Nigeria has played more pan african role than ghana on the continent, ghana is just that bitter side kick in the corner with no usefulness. Even Zimbabwe played a major role in apartheid fight than ghana. Very useless people

Do you care to give us the list of "pan African roles" played by Nigeria that Ghana has not played. In fact... I dare you. For every 1 you mention for Nigeria, I will mention 2 for Ghana. Are you ready to do this?

If I were you, simply looking at that magnificent statue of Nkrumah at the AU headquarters in Ethiopia (not Ghana) would have kept my mouth shut. But hey... You are a Nigerian, you have grown to hate anything Ghanaian, to the extent of insulting such a great leader whom non of your nigerian leaders past or present, dead or alive would dare disrespect.

Not even Ethiopia with their Haile Selassie could deny the fact that Osagyefo Nkrumah and not Haile Selassie deserves that special honor of a statue in front of the AU office in Addis Ababa.
They whole of Africa could not even debate it.

That was Africas man of the millennium.
Go check that documentary about your own Fela again. The entire walls of his room was filled with Nkrumah's pictures.

But thats what hatred for a people can do to you. You end up hating anything whether good or bad. Keep on my brother... Keep on
