I don't understand why Nigerians didn't envisage what is happening to our compatriots in Ghana. We failed to lay a good foundation for our country's progress and now we have become dwarfs unlike the giants we used to be. Why wouldn't a giant-turned-dwarf be humiliated? Nigerians in Ghana should expect worse things to come. I am foreseeing a time Nigeria Must Go bags would be sold in Ghana. Truth be told, our country has failed woefully and we shall continue to suffer these embarrassments from these small countries including Ghana

Stop bragging about buying our gas, you can't even pay for that service, you are irrelevant to Nigeria's oil sector, I wonder which country sells her oil product on credit.
you have no idea how letters of credit works right ?
google will help you
thats how the fuel market works

Will you shut the hell up, you keep shouting as if you are doing Nigeria any favour by buying our gas, should I remind you that you guys haven't even paid for the product you are consuming?, who does that?, how do we even benefit from Ghana, you owe us and I don't think if they sell the entire Ghana you will be able to pay that debt, If not for our Big brother mentality, I don't know why on earth we should still be helping those ....
ask Buhari
where he looted the monies Ghana paid to

List one thing that Nigeria can benefit from Ghana.

We have offered you a lot and can offer you a lot more at least according to akufo addo.

Now what can Ghana offer Nigeria?

Sri Lanka is more peaceful and orderly than India. It doesn't make it better.

It is just part of the benefits of being small. When your population reaches 70 million, come back and talk.

Nigeria closed their borders, Ghana closed nigerian shops. That is fair now. Somebody is mentioning ecowas. Didn’t Nigeria know about ecowas when it closed its borders? I support the closure of nigerian shops in Ghana 1000%. More shops will be closed till all nigerian shops in Ghana are closed. grin grin grin

If nigerians like, let them deport all Ghanaians living in Nigeria. Ghana will then retaliate by deporting all Nigerians living in Ghana. 7 million Nigerians in Ghana, compared with 500,000 Ghanaians in Nigeria. We’ll see who will be affected. Ghana’s is even Nigeria’s top export destination. We will just cut off trade with Nigeria and we’ll see who will feel it. Nonsense!


evanso6226:
In Kumasi the capital city of the Ashanti region in Ghana today ,over 350 shops owned by Nigerian traders was closed down and More than 100 Nigerian traders were reportedly arrested and detained by task force constituted by the Government of Ghana to regulate retail trade.

A Nigerian trader who spoke with CFR Magazine on telephone said the clamp down which began last month has frustrated a lot of Nigerian traders doing legitimate business in Ghana.

When the government began the clamp down in August, they claimed the affected shop owners failed to regularize their business concerns as prescribed by the local law, while those detained didn’t have the necessary documents such as passport, resident permit and work permit.

But, another Nigerian trader in Kumasi region who sent the photos and videos to CFR Magazine on Thursday said the exercise was originally termed a routine inspection of business premises owned by non-Ghanaians to determine whether they were up to date in the payment of taxes but has now culminated in another round of clamp down on shops owned by Nigerians.

“The exercise is targeted at Nigerian. We’re part of the ECOWAS. So why are they doing this? They’ve not entered into any shop owned by the Senegalese and the Togolese who do business here too.

“They said we’re taking over their jobs. Nigerian government needs to wade into this matter and save those in various detention facilities. Since yesterday, they’ve arrested over 100 Nigerians,” he said.

The Inter-Governmental Task Force comprises representatives from the National Security, Immigration, the Ministry for Interior, Ghana Standard Authority, Ministry for Trade and Industry, Ghana Police Service and Ghana Union of Traders Association (GUTA)

What has nigeria “offered” to Ghana? What? You Nigerians are ingrates. Fvcked up ingrates. At least Nigerian banks operate in a Ghana. They make profits, which they repatriate back to your country to feed you mudder fuggerz. Are you grateful to Ghana for that?

It just emerged from your own government, that indeed Ghana is the top export destination for nigerian goods. You Nigerians export to Ghana, make profit which you send back to your country to feed you mudder fuggerz. Are nigerians grateful to Ghanaians for that? All you people do is spew crap and nonsense about Ghana and Ghanaians.

It just ejet[color=#990000][/color]

Why all these embarrassment for Nigerians in these stupid African countries undecided. Imagine ordinary Ghana?. Let's sanction these bastards and close our boarders to them to see how they will survive without us ?

Thank you. You get sense well well. Who gives a fvck about these mudder fuggerz. When we told them they will soon cry for closing their borders, they thought we were joking,huh? grin close your border, I close your shops grin that’s 1-1 draw. So why are nigerians crying? grin grin grin nothing gives me greater joy than to see nigerians cry grin grin grin
Throwback:
I visit Ghana frequently.

This arrogance and delusional regard of your significance to the Ghana economy is the very reason why the task force overlooks the Togolese traders and focus on the braggart Nigerian that does not even have the necessary legal papers that ECOWAS membership prescribes.

I know for a fact that a law had been put in place in the past to even limit the ownership of retail stores by foreigners (mostly ECOWAS) in Ghana.

No country would sit by and watch its own citizens displaced economically by aliens and economic refugees.

Every country welcomes foreign investments that would provide jobs for the local population, hence Nigerian companies are welcomed to come do such in Ghana just as you have the SouthAfrican MTN, Shoprite and Multichoice doing same in Nigeria and elsewhere.
But at no time should such companies feel they are doing their host country and people a favour, when profit as a business goal is being made by such firms, example is MTN making its greatest profits in Nigeria.

So despite the limitations that ECOWAS membership still allows every sovereign state to apply, most countries tend to overlook such limits and tolerate some prohibitions in the spirit of African brotherhood, but remember that the rules still exist to be exploited if the situation becomes dire.

Also remember that Nigeria was the one that deported about a million Ghanaians from Nigeria during the Shagari government for the economic benefit of Nigeria.

Ghana too will do what is of benefit to its economy and people, and preponderance of foreign retail shop ownership does not benefit any host country or its people.
