Where are the nuisance that condemned Nigeria for not rushing to support the ECo single currency initiated by France for West Africa
The pseudo economics dont know that the introduction was to undermine the economy of Nigeria and they are very dumb to realise that even when Ghana jumped into accepting, Nigeria took its time to review it.
You dey mind those idiots ?

Meanwhile, I am not surprised to see Guinea joining in on the "condemnation".

I mean, from the onset, they have never really wanted to be part of the whole CFA Franc thing- under any guise.

They are the only ex-French colony in West Africa that has never really been part of the CFA bloc.

Guinea pulled out of the CFA zone just one year after independence(1958) under the leadership of Sekou Toure.

All these bullcrap about naming and renaming is not the solution to the underlying problem messing up Africa.

Currency renaming has nothing to do with the economic growth or development of a continent.

Getting to work or simply borrowing and implementing the templates used by countries that were in our position many decades ago but are now thriving is the only way forward.

It's a massive project but it's achievable. Other countries did it and came good. Why can't we face these challenges head on.

Imagine talking about naming and renaming of currency at this time. Africa na wah.


It's not just about renaming, there are other policies that accompany it. Read more before you post with sentiments. We know you hate your country but cut it some slack

another fake news by these zoo country to massage their poverty capital of the world ego if they even have one.Ghana never joined any meeting anywhere. Our finance ministers and central bank governor are all in Ghana working around the clock to continue to put the nation forward as the best running economy in West Africa and you're quoting Ghana here.

Can't your 200 million depressed people do without Ghana cos Ghana has already started her official stance to accept the ECO when a central bank is built to manage the currency.

Fyi Guinea is not an English speaking nation .Maybe the Ghanaian ambassador to Nigeria attended which makes this fake meeting and news a joke.Think about your poverty and leave Ghana alone and out of your mouth.

Left to me; there are several names ECOWAS can use outside ECO, let the francophone countries keep changing like chameleons. A name like COWAS even sounds more cool to me.

So if I should go to Takoradi with my COWAS and then travel to Lome with some ECO, I can actually have ECOWAS in my pockets? grin

The name is not the problem but renaming their already existing franc to Eco is the problem here..

I think the original plan was that eco was not meant to replace existing national currencies but was meant to only serve as a means of transaction within West Africa instead of using dollar. Renaming cfac eco now is a betrayer

Bros,

You know some people seems to hide their ignorance in long meaningless narratives and they just end up coming out as terribly ignorant. From his submission, you will see.that he had no knowledge of the ECO currency proposal, the history, progress and currency issues.

Well people cannot just give what they never had
