I wonder what Nigerians are doing in that underdeveloped country. I've visited that country twice and I see nothing impressive there except a people subjected to abject poverty. The only thing the country can boast of is money ritual which our Yahoo Boys have advanced beyond. They now go the Hushpuppy's style! Lol! 2 Likes |

authority2006: You're very ignorant about the subject. The registration isn't a million dollars. The registration fee is different. They have capital requirements of 1 million dollars. I notice you didnt comment on Nigerian laws ban foreigners from owning certain businesses outright in your own country. 28.

I don't know why many people here are saying that Nigerians in Ghana should leave the country or pay the outrageously insane 1 million USD. And I ask , what then is the need for ECOWAS treaties? Ghana has been enjoying unfettered access to the Nigerian market due to ECOWAS free trade agreements, companies like Unilever and Nestle produces many products they sell in Nigeria in their Tema factories, you might not notice this until you carefully read the products labels. There are many Ghanaians in Nigeria doing their legitimate business and nobody disturbs them, I know of one who owns a bakery here in Lagos and he is doing very well, I do buy meatpies and bread from there. So imagine if he was to pay 1 million USD before he can operate. ECOWAS free trade agreements which I believe that Ghana is a signatory to, provides coverage for the free movement of goods, people and services across the sub-region. If Nigeria, Ivory coast, Senegal, Mali, Guninea Conakry should emulate Ghana and impose 1million USD trade license fee on the citizens of other sister nations of ECOWAS then the dreams and aspirations of establishing ECOWAS has been defeated. |

proeast: They don't want Nigerians over there, Even if the acquire a mall, they will bring out another policy to witchunt them, they feel Nigerians are making so much money than Ghanians, that is why they don't want them in there country. Is only Nigerians that knows what they are looking for in Ghana and African countries. Nigeria remains the giant of Africa, for all I care. Nigeria is a land filled with honey and milk, Nigeria is the promised land. We have almost all the natural resources in the whole world. We have everything. Ghana should not insult us, It has not gotten to that extent. |

Nnannapat: You are a very peaceful man, but Ghanians have been troubling Nigerians, the best thing is for them to come back, then Ghanians should leave Nigeria, let us close our boarders, this relationship is not working, we can't keep begging Ghana, is enough. Everyday Ghanians are troubling Nigerians, is it when they start killing them you will realise they don't want them, they have pulled down our embassy, is it not enough? |

mauchiz:No country is an island onto itself. No matter how much they hate our guts, their is a limit to what they can do. They can't put a policy for Nigeria alone, it can't work, except they want to cut their nose to spite their face. Ghana is still benefiting a lot from Nigeria in many ways. Had it been we have intelligent rulers who are smart, all these banana republics won't be humiliating us. 1 Like |

bunch of self centred leaders nothing would be done about it just like nothing was done about Nigerians sovereignty when they demolished our embassy. the truth is Nigeria has lost its respect to the rest of our African brothers and the only way to get it back is by cleaning out our own political mess here and getting rid of our corrupt leaders. its things like this you bring to the AU notice to reprimand Ghana actions |

Blue3k: What difference does it make to me or any sensible and patriotic Nigerian? They can't sell pepper or clothes, they can't operate a barber's shop or driving a cab. If individual Nigerian had that kind of money, what would he be looking for in Ghanaian market center? I notice you didnt comment on Nigerian laws ban foreigners from owning certain businesses outright in your own country. I don't see Nigerian government victimising Ghanaian traders or any other African in Nigerian markets. The Nigerians who are being victimised in Ghana are the people who engage in petty trading below and not some Dangotes or Otedolas with 400 millions naira registration or capital

Many Nigerians here are ignorant of Ghana law. The law only relates to those entering the retail market, the retail market has been reserved for Ghanaians only in a bid to keep unemployment low. Foreigners cannot engage in retail in any of the markets. Many other areas are open for Nigerians to engage in. example Services sector IT sector etc There are many Nigerians in Ghana who respected the law and established businesses in the Services Sector, IT sector and are doing business without any issue. Only those Nigerians who decided to do retail (selling single units) in their shops and opened shops in any of the major markets have been shut down. The major reason why the Ghanaians reacted was that once a Nigerian opens shop in the market, he engages in agressive marketing crashing the price of what he is selling, reducing profit to the point that all the other Ghanaian shops have to go out of business. It became so bad that the Ghanaians couldn't even feed from their own shops and the Nigerian traders were loving it because they got all the customers. The Nigerian traders even went as far as overpaying for the shops, the landlords started taking their rent in dollars. It was a ticking time bomb based on greed and eventually when Buhari closed the border, Ghanaians decided to react too. The Ghanaians are just trying to reclaim their markets back. 4 Likes |

proeast: What you have said is absolutely true. A case study was when we closed our borders and Ghanaian couldn't bring their usual alcoholic drinks like "fire" , "alomo bitters" and co into the country again. I remember their president meeting with general Buhari about it. Do we have patriotic leaders? unfortunately, NO. 1 Like |

proeast: The best thing now is for President Buhari to send evacuation flight to Ghana free of charge, and order Nigerians to leave Ghana within 48 hours, take them by surprise, order Ghanians to leave Nigeria, they will beg. Use Ghana as a scapegoat for others, seal Ghana boarder with Nigeria. Give an order, that anyone that does not return to Nigeria, ceases to be a citizen of Nigeria, all this insult from all these countries will reduce. |
