What is really wrong with Ghananians? What was also wrong with our leaders for chasing them out of Nigeria?
In fact, what is wrong with blacks? I'm out
The only thing wrong with being black is that you paint it "black".

In other words foreigners must have a company or industry before they can do business in Ghana.

Well, that's a very stup#d law, these Ghanaians are starting to piss me off, all because we say no to smuggling, they decided to frustrated our people doing legimate business in their country.


please if you know any Ghanaian shops around ur area, indicate, let's reciprocate this kind jesture
Now to address ur issue; first of all, u made mention of an existing law which u called stupid, u then went ahead to use the word legitimate... Now calm down, get urself a word spectroscope, analyze those two words u used for their Chirality.. Did they spin in the same direction..Certainly the answer is no.. The obvious is rules is rules just obey them.. A bad law until amended is still applicable in instance of its breach.. Besides in ur own country, u've banned about 40 or more products from other west African countries, a breach of the ECOWAS accord of which ur country is a signatory to, how do u call that Something worthy of commendation ...He who calls for equity must come first with clean hands my brother... Hypocrisy n dishonesty at its best.

This is not about law. It's just their normal madness. This has little to do with border closure. The border ish is just an excuse for them to lock up shops of Nigerians and prob Lebanese.

Many Ghanaians are plain lazy. Take example. Most shops and markets would remain locked till past 10 in the morning. And close early too. Many of them don't know what bulk price is. As in, you could buy a carton of an item and then discover that you could have bought it in pieces for the same price.

Their market women also prefer to let food items spoil, rotten and then throw it away than reduce price. I once stood for more than 5 minutes in front of a Ghana woman's shop to buy credit. There was no customer in the shop. The woman was talking to her friend. She saw me. Kept quiet and kept talking. I've forgotten whether I walked away eventually or why I even stood there in the first place.

In short, dem no sabi business. When an Igbo man goes there, or any where for that matter, dem go open shop very early and close very late. They'll friends with customers and business will boom. Instead of the lazy bums to up their service, they'll instead go have secret meetings and next you know - mass lock up of shops.

And guess what? If any of those 9ja guys leave the place, one of the ghana guys will start the same business - in the same shop self.

Note: This is not a Ghana only problem. Even in Lagos, the work ethic of Igbo business drive many yoruba guys crazy with envy. And the only law they can use to close shops or the whole market is, "The market is dirty. You didn't pay TV and radio licence...."

Wow... This is serious news to me o. What a shame.

The government should please give us figures on how this border closure has improved our economy recently.

On the other hand, it has increased the cost of living occasioned by the rise in the price of rice. So, of what benefit is the border closure?

With all the untapped locations in Nigeria with our large market somebody would go to Ghana to go and do petty trading.

If its there law I can't question it, but I hope ECOWAS won't scream blue murder when Nigeria retaliates.

I know many people from Niger republic in PH who own shops and kiosks and engage other petty services but we no send.

There country there rules Goodluck to them, poor countries are always very petty, the fact that Ghanaians are dragging petty trading with immigrants, a low-level business, shows how low these Ghanaians are. If not for Juliet Ibrahim I would think all Ghanaians are not reasonable

They are famous for their dumbness.

The amount of goods coming from Ghana is shocking and it's OUR own fault. Atta Mills (God bless his soul a dead Ghanaian president was smart. When Soludo wanted to revalue naira, our local Devils shook the Earth and the matter died. Mills implemented the same thing and their economy changed immediately.

Next, he woed the major consumer companies in Nigeria with ZERO taxes for 15 years, probably free land and 24 hours guaranteed ELECTRICITY! PZ moved, Unilever are two companies I know moved the majority of their operations to Ghana. Some ceased Nigerian operations completely.

I strolled to Unilever in Tema Ghana and that's where I learned that all the blue band we eat here is made in Ghana. Knorr cubes, toothpaste... made there. I doubt they are affected by the border closure.
Really!

The only west African country that has the mind to face us is Ghana.Benin,Togo,Niger and even Cameron an eastern Africa country can't do much.But Ghana should thread carefully.they should not be deceived.Cause I don't know where this is going but in terms of military action they are no match for us.In terms of all what Nigeria did for South Africa in the past look at what they repaid us with cause they know we can only bark and we are no match for them in terms of military.why did you think the world fears America.they are not the richest neither are they the strongest in economic terms but when it comes to military no one can stand before them.

U see your life, the country law state that any business below 200,000 dollars should be run by Ghanaians. Yet your citizens breaks the law by operating on the business that is meant for Ghanaians. Bro am sorry to tell you that we are not lawless as you guys.

You don’t understand the regional trade. There are more goods coming from Ghana into Nigeria than from Benin and Togo combined.
Two things makes Ghana different. One is that they have more local industries producing for export to other West African countries because of their favorable business environment. Constant power supply, security and infrastructure.
Secondly, they are English speaking with reputable private importers. Foreign countries prefer to deal with them than their other neighboring countries. So, big franchises and sole distributors of foreign goods are mostly based there and operate from there to the big market in Nigeria.
Lastly Nigeria regulatory agencies have so many bureaucratic hurdles. From customs, SON, to Nafdac, they are not business oriented. So, people prefer to go the Ghana route, to import and then through land borders bring their goods into Nigeria which is where the market is.
Now that is why Ghana is apprehensive. Big businesses are affected and boarder closure impacts their economy.

there is no 'constant' power in ghana

If those listed laws and regulations are true, then this is laudable... Nigeria government should borrow a leaf from these dark Negroes.

I have no complaints whatsoever.... But, if this is any way linked maliciously to the border closure, then I laugh in Kenkey, cos it won't work. grin
Those laws were never implemented by their government and they are only using it to put pressure on Nigeria to open up their borders, which is not going to work.
