Lol...we certainly saw that when Nigeria played Sierra Leone...keep on celebrating mediocrity, it's good....after all, some people still believe APC is the best thing to happen in Nigeria

Princedapace:
Nothing like self hatred bro. We don't have stable electricity here. I use solar to power my two bedroom apartment and I live in a big city in Nigeria. That is rubbish.
We have to dig bore hole, we have to pay private people to guide us, our roads are so bad, we have terrible football league, watch our league, watch north African or South African leagues. We don't even want to mention other sports.
No dey deceive ur self. We are terrible bro.

BlaqFaze:
Otu! like I said this is the problem with Nigeria... saying foreigners appreciate godswill akpabio stadium, lol foreigners like who... England, Spain or Senegal(they have a world class stadium). I love Nigeria that's why I won't be happy when our only "world class" stadium is a 30k capacity mushroom

My American friend did vacation in morrocco and he was blown away with their infrastructures. He practically told me that it is like Europe.
He visited Nigeria and ran away

Princedapace:
As big as Nigeria is, this is the only stadium they can be proud of. Nigeria is just a shame.

This one will soon cast like Abuja stadium.

LeSudAfricaine:
Lol, how do you even know because I didn't even say where I was based? I said I live in a developed black area, but because I said "developed " you assume It was developed by white people right? You are a mental slave

Praxis758:
The black race will always blame and never take responsibility.

Niger Delta has a voluminous deposit of crude oil. What effort has your leaders made to develop the very towns where the oil wells are located?

Will you also blame the caucasians for the underdevelopment of the oil rich Niger delta? Would you sue the caucasians for failing to mine the gold, marble coal, bitumen and iron ore deposits in Zamfara, Oyo, Enugu, Ondo and Kogi states respectively?

LeSudAfricaine:
Just a quick question though. Why do Nigerians like such comments tho? "Africa is cursed", "Africa needs recolonisation", "the white man is superior" etc, I hardly see such comments where im from

Praxis758:
Abuja national stadium (now MKO Abiola stadium was adjudged the 8th best in the world when it was built in 2003. Same stadium became a grazing arena for Fulanis between 2015 to 2021.

Thanks to Dangote who volunteered to renovate it after a years of inactivity. Where is national stadium in Surulere?

The caucasians settlers built the developed parts of South Africa. Go and research how areas dominated by locals/indigenous South Africans live.

LeSudAfricaine:
Amen.The level of self- hate I always see on this forum leaves me speechless

oluseyiforjesus:
Sometimes Africa make me believe Adam n Eve were created white........

tiger28:
This is Africa o!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our Northern African Brothers making good use of money made from their natural resources, while their "Darker" Brothers Southwards are siphoning monies ANYHOW.

And we all exist in the SAME Continent.

This makes me to impartially think.......................Is the Black man REALLY cursed??

ONE thing I can guarantee is this, the Colonialists will treat us better than our own leaders. If you think that I am wrong , check Africa Circa Pre-independence,

Praxis758:
Don’t worry, the Chinese your country is indebted to will soon create a sugarcane plantation where your likes will work to repay the loans.

Be deceiving yourself.

Praxis758:
Akufo Ado and Buhari read the same economics book, took same exam, wrote same answer and scored same grade.

That Buhari-like borrowing policy is really hitting the Ghanaian economy.

President Buhari Welcomes Berthing of First Ship at $2 Billion Lekki Deep Sea Port

President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR., has congratulated the Federal Ministry of Transportation and the Nigerian Ports Authority on the successful berthing of the first ship at Lekki Deep Sea port.

The vessel, ZHEN HUA 28, delivered three Ship to Shores (STS) and 10 Rubber Tyre Gantries (RTG) cranes that will help in the evacuation of cargoes from vessels to the shore.

The president expressed his feelings in a statement issued by his spokesman, Mr Femi Adesina, on Saturday in Abuja.

He also congratulated all stakeholders in the maritime sector over the feat.

Buhari recalled that his approval of four new seaports in the country, including the Lekki Deep Sea port, was hinged on growing the economy.

According to him, the decision was also aimed at creating massive job opportunities, foreign investment inflows and trade facilitation.

He commended the staff and management in the nation’s maritime sector who are working round the clock to make the operationalisation of Lekki Deep sea port before the end of the year a reality.

The president reassured them of his commitment to sustain investments in these new assets.

According to Buhari, the nation’s maritime and aquatic resources are critical to the livelihoods of Nigerians and Government will spare no effort in successfully harnessing the potential of the sector.

Sometimes I wonder if these other states have governors governing them. Before you know, they'll start blaming Bubu and Tinubu for their calamities.

Subsidywise20:
When I hear all this story about 'country has lot of natural resources'....I just laugh.

Having natural resources is not the issue....it is what you do with the natural resources that matters. That is why America is developed and Ghana and Nigeria and a host of other African countries are not developed. We have a lot of resources....that we sell to other countries for billions, and those other countries take those resources, and use them to make goods worth more than the cost of those same resources!

Add the fact that we do not even control the prices of those resources...price of cocoa, cotton, oil etc are set abroad in London, Paris and New York. And most of the time, the prices are below what can sustain us because everyone else is producing the same thing. (Fact-Uganda had a coffee boom in the late 1970's largely because famine in several coffee producers left Uganda being something of 'the last man standing'. Once those other coffee producers got back on their feet...prices went down. Uganda was back to square one).

When the price cannot sustain us, that is when we run to IMF for loans.

Ghana has this problem because like Nigeria they are not a manufacturing society. They instead sell raw materials, and import stufff...and when the prices go below their needs...wahala dey.

Axis313:
And it is that Structural Adjustment Programme that is still affecting Nigeria till today,anything IMF touches turn to dust.They know what they are doing,you approach them for help,but instead of helping you,they triple your problem for you.

Assetinvestor:
I agree with you. Things are usually cheaper in Nigeria than Ghana. Nigerians living in Ghana always buy things in Nigeria. So if inflation is now very high there then there is serious cause for concern.

However, if only Nigeria's economy is doing well, it will have positive ripple effect on the rest of West Africa but when it isn't, it also has a net negative effect on them.

More reasons we need Peter Obi now to help us take back naija from criminals killing our economy and Ghanaians as well as other ECOWAS countries should be praying for us, knowing their destiny is also partly attached to ours.
