WebSurfer: Nigeria need to learn from a country like US, where they would never negotiate with terrorist, n have their security tighten up instead, God help us, if they succeed on this, They should expect another Worse Group underway.

BIG LIE! America is currently negotiating with the Taliban.

FANTABULOUS!

edogram.:

Ghana is most religious nation on
earth

A new survey conducted by the Gallup International Association has ranked citizens of 57 countries by their religiosity. Overall, 59% of those surveyed described themselves as religious, 23% said they are not religious, and 13% said they are convinced atheists.

The nations with the highest percentages of self-described religious persons are Ghana, Nigeria, Armenia,
Fiji, Macedonia, Romania, Iraq, Kenya,
Peru, and Brazil.

The nations with the highest percentages of self-described “convinced atheists” are China, Japan, the Czech Republic, France, South Korea, Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, Iceland, Australia, and Ireland.

Gennyz: Our senate is too dull, how can a foreign company lik MTN keep defrauding us evry nit and day,yet they call thm selves honourables,is a shame.

Did u elect them to make laws or to check MTN for u?

aieromon: Thank God for Airtel.

Why should they expect somebody to pay N7,000 for 3GB of data?

Wow! That's a lot of money! In Ghana I pay GHc 23- equivalent to abt N2000 for my monthly unlimited package.

The mother is irresponsible!

dapo338: When i saw "Hungry man size" on indomie pack, what came to my mind was why the Ridiculing, It is very unfair and ridiculous to say Nigerians are Hungry people. Why not Family size or sumthing else? Seriously! I really don't like that slogan "Hungry man". What do u think?

In Ghana it is called Supper pack.

Pataki: I remember earlier this year, a Prof. Adepoju Aderanti came from Unilag to deliver a guest lecture in Europe on the battle between the US and China for African resources.

While America seems to want to protect his own economic interest in Africa, their years of raping this continent still leaves us sore. Equally we as Africans need to be wary of the Chinese.

Does anyone here know that the new AU complex building design contract was awarded to a Chinese firm? Africa and Africans surely still have a long way to go.

It was actially built by china as a gift to Africa. It cost them $200m

That's the qualification for the job - take it or leave it!

joeyfire: Nah bruv. The ecowas charter grants a passport bearing citizen 90 days stay and it doesn't give the right to work in the country visited. Unfortunately our immmigration service is all but moribund or just compromised

So you people knew the ECOWAS CHARTER very well and when ghana wanted to rid its streets with illegal migrants you were complaining.

Ezira: JOHN Kufour, JOHN Atta Mills and now JOHN Mahama. Seems the name John is connected to Ghana's Seat of Power.

. Since 1992, all ghanaian presidents have been Johns.

rhymz: Ghanaians can be so funny with the way they hype Ghana, one will think it is Eldorado.
See them here making claims of a fictitious steady power supply. .lol. .anyway, that's one of the advantages of internet braggadocio, you can claim anything and go scot free. Fact still remains though, there's no such thing as a constant power supply in Ghana today-an improvement better than Nigeria's, no doubt. In relative terms, there is a lot of noise about Ghana even though the population of Lagos is almost the same size with Ghana. In terms of the size of Ghanaian economy, it is only about half the size of Lagos economy in Gross Domestic Product, GDP. If Lagos were a separate country from the rest of Nigeria, it would be the fifth largest economy in Africa. Ghana still plays in the kid league when it comes to big-ticket FDI. The mistake many Ghanaians make is to think that Nigeria ends in Lagos. The volume of trade and commerce in a City like Onitsha, is prolly bigger than that of Lagos, yet Ghanaians like to assume that Ghana is helping some "Nigerian refuges" doing business in their country. .lol
However you look at it, Ghana still presents a small investment opportunity next to Nigeria, the biggest regional player. Nigeria has many strikes against it in the international investing community, and it is certainly not for the faint hearted. Yes, Nigeria is often at the top of corruption league tables. Priorities are often askew here; a UN report on oil spills in the Niger River Delta, caused by vandalism and aging pipelines, claims it will take 30 years to clean them up. But with these high risks come high returns, as Nigeria's GDP growth of 400 percent over the 10 years to 2009 demonstrates. Add to this a young and growing educated population, estimated to hit 250 million by 2050, and a burgeoning middle-class with an increasing appetite for consumer goods and services, investors are overcoming their fear of the country. Confidence in the consumption capacity of Nigeria is well illustrated by significant investments in the cement and drinks industries especially by local Investors, alongside the now commonplace investments in telecommunications. The Dangote Group, for instance, has pumped $3.9 billion into new cement plants across Africa with a combined capacity of 50 million tonnes of cement. More than half of this is being invested in Nigeria where the company aims to more than raise its production capacity from 8 to 20 million tonnes.
South Africa's SABMiller has also completed its US$100 million plant in eastern Nigeria to boost its brewing capacity in the country. SABMiller only entered the Nigerian market in 2009 with the acquisition of a small brewery in Port Harcourt; now the company plans to give the current market leaders - Heineken with 70 percent of the market, and Guinness with 20 percent - a run for their money. But even they are not resting on their laurels - Heineken has already acquired five existing breweries in the country for an estimated US$750 million, and Guinness is almost through with her US$350 million investment to expand its biggest plants.
I Am sure Ghana has its equivalents of these industries but not on the scale mentioned. As for electricity production, Nigeria produces like 2.5 times more electricity than Ghana but this amounts to slightly less than 20 watts per person, compared with 50 watts per person in Ghana. That is where the whole myth of Ghana having eternal supply of electricity emanated from. .lol. .what a joke!

You live in a country where 30% of the butget goes to the lawmakers, 40% to the executive and 10% to the 'boys'. Honestly, are u still proud of your leaders? Nigerian lawmakers earn more than 25 times what USA lawmakers earn! Your president is the second highest earning head of state in the world - this is too much considering that he was a fisherman!

It is not a news!

FDI to SSA hit record high of 35.0
billion dollars...West Africa major
recipients
Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) flow into
Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) shot to a
record high of 35.0 billion dollars in
2011 from the 27.4 billion dollars posted
in 2010 with West Africa receiving a
bulky 46 per cent.
This is higher than the 34.7 billion high
recorded in 2008.
According to the Economics and Political
Research Unit of Renaissance Capital,
West Africa was the largest recipient of
FDI in 2011, with almost half of the total-
46 per cent - followed by Central Africa
with 24 per cent and Southern Africa
with 18 per cent of inflows. East Africa
received a meager 11.3 per cent of
SSA’s FDI inflows.
Ghana, Nigeria and South Africa
collectively attracted half of the 2011 FDI
that flowed into the area. Ghana and
Nigeria together made up 75 per cent of
the sub-region’s inflows, concentrated
within the petroleum industry.
The Unit said Ghana, which was Africa’s
newest oil producer, drew FDI for the
newly developed Jubilee oil field and
while Tullow Oil, a UK oil company, plans
to invest $2bn (in 2013 and 2014,) to
establish an oil refinery in Uganda,
Nobile Energy, a US oil company, also
plans to invest $1.6bn (we think in the
short term, 2012-2013) to set up
production wells and a processing
platform in Equatorial Guinea.
It also indicated that FDI to West Africa
increased by 36 per cent to 16.1 billion
dollars in 2011, with Guinea exhibiting
the strongest improvement in FDI
growth last year.
According to the United Nations
Conference on Trade and Development
(UNCTAD), it expects this trend to
continue over the medium term owing to
the 6 billion dollar that the state-owned
China Power Investment Corporation
plans to invest in bauxite and alumina
projects.
The Unit further noted that Liberia,
Guinea and Ghana were the sub-region’s
largest recipients of FDI with 44 per cent
of GDP, 17 per cent and 9 per cent
respectively.
It said FDI into central Africa went to
three commodity-rich countries, mainly
oil-exporting Republic of Congo,
Equatorial Guinea and the mineral
exporting democratic Republic of Congo
(DRC).
However, the recovery in Southern
Africa’s FDI inflows was largely due to
the Region’s FDI rebounding in 2011
after falling by 78 per cent in 2010 and
doubling to 6.37 billion dollars.
East Africa, the continents’ traditional
lowest recipient of FDI saw a strong
recovery last year, with inflows
expanding in 2011 following the declines
in the previous two years.
East Africa’s FDI inflows expanded in
2011, following the declines in 2009 and
2010, to $3.96bn, which is just 5%
below the peak of 2008.
It noted that East Africa’s low ranking in
terms of FDI inflows reflects its relatively
low endowment of natural resources,
however, this is set to change over the
medium term owing to recent oil & gas
discoveries in the Region that has led to
East Africa being referred to as Africa’s
new oil frontier.
East Africa’s natural gas reserves,
particularly the offshore fields of
Mozambique and Tanzania, could
significantly boost the Sub-region’s FDI
inflows. In 2011, Mozambique’s FDI
inflows doubled to $2.1bn and new
discoveries are still being made, however
the development of gas fields and the
liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry
would require substantial upfront
investments, of which FDI would likely
play a significant role.
In the view of the Unit, Eni’s (Italian
company) plan to invest $50bn (likely
between 2013 and 2018-2020 in our
view) to develop the gas fields recently
discovered in Mozambique is one such
example

"Silly clown".

I HAVE A LOT OF RESPECT FOR YORUBAS WHO LIVE IN GHANA

SmoothCrim: You Boko's are VERY UGLY! The Ugliest bunch of dogs in Africa Every time I see one of you I vomit! All of you look like you survived an abortion! An Experiment gone wrong!!! The Ugliest in West Africa

If I was given the option of being a dog or one of you Nigerian Boko's the answer would be bark bark!

Even a dog will not want to be one of you


You see I can insult with the best of them and like most Ghanaians I pack a big punch!

ONLY Ghanaian RULE can save West Africa!!!!

I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING!

SmoothCrim: And a few years before that thousands of Naija's were sent packing...

You see, at least we did it within the law back then while your Boko gov. just randomly deported and STOLE peoples property!!!

You called it the greatest day in the post colonial history of your country Nigga-Area(Nigeria) and named a bag after it! Ghana must GO! You yelled


After that you better always follow the laws when in Ghana!!!

Otherwise I will sh1t in Goodlucks palace and call it free movement!!

steph7: The area I stay in PH, power supply is relatively steady, once in a while we have 23 hours light steady , on a bad day 18-21 hours light and once in a blue moon 24 hours.its been like this for months and it only gets bad when there is a fault. Nigeria is gradually getting there, let ghana be dere forming

where i stay in Ghana, there is no single light off for the last 3 months.

bigdoo: Ghana people hate Nigerians with a passion. I cannot tell you enough about my experience with them in London either at workplace or in business. I would never go to Ghana to do business as a Nigerian.

we don't need you! is that the reason why if Nigerians come to Ghana they change their names?

Mkenyaa: Not twins but sisters.
