Sentiment aside, the mother was heartless, irrational and careless, no matter her desperation for money. Who is that adult that will leave an eight-year-old baby alone for 8 hours? Her jail term is too small.

Dey use condom na, like me now if I use condom na till eternity be that, I no dey cum till I go tire and remove it, that's why I no dey Bleep anyhow cuz I no wan carry disease. I con dey wonder say how others con take dey use this condom.

So I believe say if you dey use condom e fit promote you to 10mins at least.

Let me give you another clue I dey use those days whenever I get Jedi, no too dey excited about the sex, just comot your mind and be thinking another thing outside as if you no even dey knack. If you be Christian you fit dey sing some worship songs from your mind lol, even though the girl dey moan no mind am.

Man self, our main go during sex is just to satisfy the woman, as for me I don't really enjoy it, I hear that some men even moan too, haba! Sex is just over hyped that's why I don't beg for sex, if I wan do and the girl dey say leave me leave me that's the end.

Thread update. Thank you Xpol for the wonderful guide. Very handy if you wish to make the trip to Accra from Lagos.
Based on my recent experience (August 2024), some prices have gone up, Nigeria exchange rate is currently battered so it will be more expensive to go to Accra now.
In crossing Seme border for the first time on foot, I parted with 3k Naira in official fees, and 2k Naira in unofficial fees grin.

Seme to Dantokpa market in Cotonou - 3k cfa (8k Naira)

Dantokpa Market Cotonou to Lome in Togo - 8k cfa (22k Naira)

Crossing Lome into Aflao Ghana - 100 cedis or 5000 cfas ( 10k Naira to 13k Naira), negotiate with the bike men and make sure you agree on a price before you take their bikes. I had an unpleasant experience with one of them.
The bike men crossing from Lome, Togo into Aflao, Ghana are going to take you through an unofficial border crossing so you won't get your passport stamped. If you want to stamp your passport, go through the official border crossing although you might pay more than 100 cedis or 5000 cfas to get that done the first time but I was told it's good to stamp your passport if you plan to travel that route frequently.

Aflao to Accra - 80 cedis (8k Naira)
That's naira for you. The first time I travelled that route I spent a little above 6k not upto 7k,even b4 Corona lockdown 10k would still take one through that route.

If you're taking Aflao direct from seme used to be 6kcfa(3knaira), ABC would take you from Lagos straight to Accra for 15k. Na only God knows where naira is falling to.

It's good you had a safe journey, those okada sometimes dey thief person money and belongings especially that Aflao.

Agriculture / Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by Xpol: 7:58pm On Aug 30
okoroemeka:
on a serious note not every cucumber variety is meant for commercial farm production,some varieties are meant for garden,ornamentals, hobbyists,etc,if you look closely at the oliveria variety farm you will see more reasons the farm was abandoned,it is diseased by DM and others,farmers should not just plant any variety because it is easily available,any seed to be planted must have been proven in rainy,dry, harmattan seasons,I cannot help but remember when we planted pointsett cucumbers ,it was a very very hilarious experience.
Please can you share what really happened to the poinsett?

Ghana is like Nigeria. The only thing is you are in a serene environment but there are still challenges.

No job in Ghana, the best you can do for yourself is to replicate the business in Nigeria and apply it there.

If na school you dey go, you fit go .

Accra is expensive, kumasi can be cheaper based on housing and food.

Sunyani is another region you will love. It is like calabar.

You just need to go and come back to see what it is like. I.E get a place to rent, survey the local market. Getting a shop in the market is very expensive.

I want to assume your budget is minimal maybe $3000.

Figure out what you can buy wholesale in lagos and bring it to Ghana and sell wholesale but if you retail ,then you have a daily living.

Commodities Nigerians buy in bulk are: Phone accessories, phone batteries.

Computer related accessories.

Car parts; break pads, car battery, wiper blades ..

Also, I have encountered Ghanaians buy watches,watch batteries, female hair ,female fashion product in Nigeria. I have seen a Liberian buy our local made slippers,sandals from the east to sell in Ghana and Liberia.

There are other items just think.

If you cannot do commerce, think of service business but this can require more money as you might need to rent a shop ,etc..

Barbershop, female salon, grilling( tilapia, pork).

It is hard,seems like you have no skills, nothing to offer but be a burden to the country. It is best been broke in Nigeria than Ghana. So if you are not street smart just relax in Nigeria.
Best I've read so far, you make sense jare. Someone came to seek for advice, lot of people that have not even crossed border are here discouraging him.

To me, the only advantage Ghana have over Nigeria is light. Those that are saying they use 24hrs light in their area, so bcoz they have stable light in their area means all Nigerians are enjoying same ?

To the OP, if you can't be productive in Nigeria, you may experience same in Ghana coz both countries look similar streetwise. Do your research well coz the money that look big in Nigeria go turn small when you change it and may finish b4 you are able to settle down.

If you have a skill like hairdressing, make-up/fixing nails/eye lashes/pedicure, phone repairing and you are very good, I bet you Ghanaians may even be patronizing you more than their own people they don't discriminate in that aspect, they will prefer your service.

Ghana, it's better I travelled to Cote D'Ivoire compare to Ghana.Ghanaians always hype their country but things are really expensive than in Nigeria. They will be bragging with electricity wey no do reach only Lagos state alone. Ivory coast is better compare to Ghana. You just need to learn basic french words.
Things are even more expensive in Nigeria now. Talk about Rice, Beans, Garri, etc are now more expensive in Nigeria.

SlavaUkraini:
@ OP

Let me advise you as someone that lived in Ghana for 10+ years

Stay in Nigeria and do not relocate to Ghana.

If you relocate to Ghana, you will regret it...

1... Majority of Ghanians do not fancy Nigerians....

2... They are envious and not happy when a Nigerian is doing well in their country....

3.... Not to talk of the issues you would have with the Ghanian immigration officials that are hunting for Nigerians and looking for ways to collect money from "Omo Naija" (Whether your resident permit is updated or not)

4.... Another problem you will encounter is the language barrier.... Ghana is not an entirely English speaking country...

When you get there, your hears go ear word...

If you cannot speak Asante Twi, you will be amongst men, most miserable πŸ˜–πŸ˜–πŸ˜–

Asante Twi is one of the major languages in Ghana that is spoken often in their major cities and towns.

If you can speak that language, then you will be mistaken for a Ghanian and even deny that you are a Nigerian and you will be believed.

5.... What about Ghana Police ?

Bro as soon as they are aware that a Nigerian is living in any neighborhood, you are a target for easy and frequent extortion whether you are a Yahoo boy or not.

And if there is any robbery or criminal activity in that your neighbourhood, they will see you as a potential suspect...

Don't let anyone deceive. Nigerians are not living freely in Ghana the way Ghanians are living freely in Nigeria...

Nigerian shops are Still locked up πŸ”’πŸ”’πŸ” In some of the markets and business districts in Ghana out of Jealousy and their fear of Nigerians taking over their businesses

Ghana is not where I would advise a Nigerian to relocate to.

If you must relocate, Go to America or Canada.

It's better to be alive but the problem is that their account balance may be less than 100k hence they're going straight into crime.

Let them try it, so far this protest is peaceful and the government tries any rubbish to set the protesters up they will see the mother of all protests.

Endsars will be child's play. This time it's the government officials (from local government to federal) that will feel the wrath of the citizenry.

Let us see how many soldiers nigeria has that can surround them and save them when the time comes angry
Said by an online protester. Enter street and risk your life in the face of live bullets flying here and there b4 your lots will be taken serious. Na una dey push the gullible ones enter grave.

Participating in a protest against government in Nigeria is 50/50. One may know the beginning and never witness the end.

Enter village/Town go find wife material nor these nowadays things that tied ⛓️ πŸ”— ⛓️ πŸ”— on their legs, wear short/jumpers around. Some of them are EMPTY UPSTAIRS
This notion of getting better housewives from village is long gone. These days when village girls open eyes for cities na cry dey always end am.

Concerning the topic, both my wife and I are working, most times I close before her, it's not compulsory to cook before the family eat so men should stop that kind of mindset, if your wife no cook and you think cooking is always an easy task, oga enter kitchen and Cook for the family.

As for me, I'm not good in that aspect so whenever wifey can't cook na buy we dey buy food and I'm always ok with that, how do you expect somebody daughter to close late at night and still enter kitchen. Na lack of understanding dey break most homes. Women go don tire like kilode Dem go reach house still enter kitchen no be say e easy for them but they just wan please the family.

Make her full housewife and be taking care of her needs then I'll blame the wife for not always cooking for you.

Ok take Nigeria as an example, how do you think it's possible for AI to take 50% of the jobs in Nigeria?

Those people Hawking in the street abi na the entrepreneurs wey AI go take their jobs which AI go take hairdressers jobs, na AI go replace your phone mouthpiece when it spoil abi.na AI go dey drive and do conductor for Lagos danfo. Lol you guys watch too much America movies.

Can you allow a robot to fix eye lashes for your wife or gf?

AI go replace mama bashira and sell Amala and ewedu/ fufu and bitter leave for you. Lol AI go replace agbero for Lagos bah?

Lol, AI go even replace police at check point dey roja.

Just tell me how AI go fit take 50% of the jobs we have in Nigeria.

E get work AI fit take and it can never even reach 5% in Nigeria and many African countries bcoz many of the jobs that are available is hustling job than cannot be replaced by machine. Maybe some office works and factories that will be affected.
