By population ratio it is too small...Ghana also had an increase which is higher compared to population ratio |

2014 – Nigeria’s Oil Workers Shut Down Gas Supply To Ghana, Ghana’s Central Bank Governor Laments The gas supply to Ghana from Nigeria has been switched off by Nigeria’s oil workers few hours after they embark on a nationwide strike. The gas is supplied through Nigeria via WAPCO (West African Gas Pipeline) to Ghana, Togo and Benin Republic. As we speak, the gas that supplied electricity to these countries has been switched off. Henry Kofi Wampah, the Governor of GCB, Ghana’s Central Bank lamented in a news conference today describing the action as bad news that could damage Ghana’s economy if prolonged. The supply of gas to Ghana was halted last year which resulted in energy deficit and economic instability. A senior official at WAPCO confirmed the shutdown of the pipeline this afternoon. |
REGIONAL BIG HITTERS: Nigeria and Ghana are the largest and second-largest economies in West Africa, respectively, and are also the two biggest oil producers in the region, although the difference in output between the two is immense. Nigeria was Ghana’s third-most-important trade partner in 2010, accounting for almost 10% of total Ghanaian foreign trade. Ghana, in turn, was Nigeria’s ninth-largest trade partner in that same year, accounting for some 1.3% of Nigerian trade ( including 1.9% of exports). Nigeria has also been a very important source of investment in Ghana. In recent years, for example, several Nigerian banks have set up shop in Ghana, as has the Nigerian telecommunications company Globacom. www.oxfordbusinessgroup.com/analysis/mutual-benefits-relationship-ghana-remains-crucial-despite-recent-dispute |
The Nigerian Export Promotion Council (NEPC) has said that Nigeria non-oil exported to Ghana was N17.52 billion in 2011, from N12.67 billion in 2010. According to NEPC, this figure represents a 38 per cent increase in 2011. NEPC Director Trade Information, Mr Aliyu Lawal, while revealing this to FrontiersNews on Wednesday in Abuja, said that the bulk of the exported products were cosmetics, footwear, textiles, confectionaries, insecticides, plastic (empty bottles), electric cables, food and beverages, including noodles. |

What you Ghanaians should knw is that there is no developing nation with such huge human population lyk ours that dont have problems similar to our...these are things that is attached to fast development example look at the problems facing India compare it to Nigeria's. ALSO coming to employment...go do some research the number of Nigerians employed both by private sector and government is almost 3times population of Ghana...but dats not enough for Nigeria's population. Coming to education very few people in southern Nigeria are illiterate but the huge deficit in education is mostly in the north but measure lead down in resent times if well managed will see to dat...example almageri school...Industrially how many of you have been to Nigerian cities like Lagos,Aba, Onitsha, etc...you will see huge concentrations of industries there. ALL these development cant be compared to dat of Ghana's or any other African Nation except south African in certain aspects. most Nigerian and unbiased Ghanaians know that...but it is not enough for Nigerians. Coming to presidency I don't think any 1 can b seen as a competent leader in Nigeria so long as ethnic and religious sentiments exists within the citizens... |
