NIGERIA IS NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING, WE WILL JUST SECURE OUR TERRITORIAL SOVEREIGNTY ON LAND, SEA AND AIR.

LET THEM KEEP THEIR TRADE.

GHANA SHOULD STOP GOING TO ECOWAS AND ECOWAS SHOULD STOP DISTURBING US.

OUR COUNTRY AND OUR RULE.
I think now you have come back to your small Senses,Our country our rules ...so is theirs

Full implementation of ECOWAS protocols and agreements are a mirage, every country will protect its people economically.

Abi, wetin do 9ja wey you no fit invest the little you had in.

You can’t blame them, it’s our unstable government policies. Talking from experience here, our government can wake up one day and bring a policy that will kill your business at once, leaving you with no option that to find a way and run out of the country. Example is this recent Gokada and all this motorcycle crisis in Lagos.

NIGERIA IS BETTER OFF FOCUSING ON ITSELF AND BULLSHITING THIS ECOWAS THING.

GHANA HAS PROVED THAT WEST AFRICA IS NOT RIPE FOR FREE MOVEMENT OF PEOPLE, GOODS AND TRADE.

GHANAIANS ARE WAY TOO BACKWARD AND PRIMITIVE.

IF WE CAN REMOVE GHANA TO SOUTH AFRICA, WE WILL HAVE A BETTER ECOWAS, FREE OF TRIBALISM.

LET ME ASK U, Y IS IT THAT AN AVERAGE GHANAIAN MAN CANNOT MAKE A SENTENCE WITHOUT MENTIONING NIGERIA?

DEM TAKE NIGERIA DO JUJU FOR UNA?

Ask them. I don't know if that is the case.

Nigeria is full of tribalism. Deal with those issues too.
Africa's primary problem is Nigeria. Until Nigeria stops putting ethnicity and religion before everything else, the likes of Buhari will hold away and cause disaffection that leads to actions like this.

We are too sentimental.

The Chinese, Indians and Turks in Ghana are not doing retail business. They are doing manufacturing which is allowed by the Ghanaian government. In fact, they even prefer foreigners to come to Ghana, take their raw materials and start manufacturing.

Retail business is for Ghanaians only. That is the law. It has nothing to do with ECOWAS and the GIPC law is very explicit about this. Other ECOWAS country nationals are not exempted.

If Nigeria is unhappy about it, then Muhammadu Buhari needs to call Akufo-Addo for a summit, where these things can be negotiated with concessions made on both sides. That is what we saw with the US-China trade war. They eventually came together and talked about it.

I hate it when Nigerians go abroad and contravene the laws in other countries.
This is just the answer to all the rants from page 1!
Thank you sir. Any other statement is just hot air!!!

That's not true. It favours other west african countries more, i.e incoming goods much more higher than the outgoings. We are losing too much funds to smugglings daily. But our system is also bad.

These traders of Nigerian descent have not come to grips with Ghanaian's form of xenophobia.It seeks to depose that of South Africa.
Who cares about the integration of West Africa anyway?These small states leverage on Nigeria's economic clout. The traders should leave Ghana and go elsewhere. Or, as a last resort,come back home.
Our borders should remain shot.If we can throw our weight around like a giant,then we should pull the plug on our continued existence in ECOWAS and AU.

I have heard the bolded from someone before.

Are Ghana men really this terrible betrayers and back stabbers?

I heard they also like to poison each other and generally jealous about everything. I mean it is only them in the whole Ecowas making law for retail to be for locals indigence, why are the rest countries not doing it?


From wat I heard, they suffer from pull him down syndrome and unleash it on it each other too.

Ghana and Nigeria are not the same. Nigerians should stop pandering to this Ghana trick that is all about depriving Nigeria of Tourist. Ghana is same as Ivory Coast. Nigeria is a unique country.
Re: Nigerian Traders In Ghana Turn Beggars Over Locked Up Shops – NUTAG by Litmus: 7:05pm On Feb 26, 2020
Ghana is terrified of Nigeria since they know just how dynamic, interesting, varied and culturaly complex Nigeria is. Nigeria is just the perfect Nation in West Africa for foreign visitors. In addition, Nigeria has oil. It is as if the existence of Nigeria is unfair to the other Nations of West Africa. You name it, Nigeria has it. Ghana people fight hard to demonise Nigeria online on one hand and also attach themselves to Nigeria on the other hand all in a desperate attempt to scare people from Nigeria and at the same time provide visitors to Ghana the things that might interest them about Nigeria in Ghana, hence their theft of everything Nigeria.

So stupid Nigerians stop playing along with all the Crappy we and Ghana are same crap! WAKE UP!

Okay, I grab now. Eyaa their land their law.

Add the fact of shehu shagaris Ghana must go in 1983 to the mix - about 37 years ago. A man of 20 then is 57 now and that's about the age range of the politicians. laws like this shouldn't be a shock.

Wonder why we can't have laws similar.
Bans on generators
Jail terms with farm work/trade craft something in the line of sewing uniforms/raising chickens/capentry for public schools.
Tax on more than 2-3 cars.
CDA involvement in security issues.
Compulsory farming on vacant lands.
Public knowledge of contracts awarded.
Use of cams by law enforcement agents.


The list is endless, but one I'd like to see is real journalism in Nigeria, maybe scraping of hrms' from companies - since its all contract workers this days.

Wonder what a decade from now has in store for us.

I just don't understand; if they are backed by the ECOWAS protocol then why are they resorting to begging when they can easily resolve the matter in court - or is it only in Nigeria that they know the road to court?

Your consession is very good! Let borders remain closed and let locked shops remain locked.
But I think if the shop owners obey simple rules in their host country these thread would not have been necessary.
BTW, there are hundreds of Nigerians still doing retail business against the rules here and it's not hitting FP...you take a trip to Accra and see for yourself...it's also very important to have first hand information before we raise voices.

WAT RULE DO U WANT DEM TO OBEY?

THE RULE IS FREE MOVEMENT OF PEOPLE, GOODS AND TRADE AMONGST WEST AFRICANS.

THIS IS WAT GHANAIANS ENJOY HERE AND ACROSS ECOWAS.

ALL ECOWAS MARKET IS OPEN TO GHANAIANS AS MUCH AS THE NATIVES IN THE COUNTRY, AS IS THE CASE HERE IN NIGERIA WHERE U FIND PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER AFRICA, INDIA, CHINESE AND LEBANESE TRADING FREELY.

OBVIOUSLY THE CHINESE, INDIA AND LEBANESE ARE FOREIGNERS BUT ECOWAS CITIZENS ARE PLACED IN SAME CATEGORY AS NIGERIANS.

IS IT WEN THEY START MARRYING YOUR WOMEN FOR PAPERS THAT U WILL LEAVE THEM TO TRADE IN PEACE?

My brother...do you think Nigerians are not free to move around here?? How many have passport or resident permit?
But that's not the bone of contention o...
There are laid down rules and it's expected that everyone concerned should obey it.
If nigeria feels she doesn't need such laws no one is against that either...
Again FYI, many Nigerians are married to Ghanaian women and this has been the norm for up to 80 years that I can tell so no issues on that.
See, let the traders tell the Ghana Union who by government approval laid down those laws that they should repeal it and if the GUTA feels so obliged they can do so! Before then....laws remain laws and any violation will be taken seriously.
