Almost all the people above me are rejoicing over this news, and I wonder why?

Na Ghana problem Una want use take console Una selves? Face your own problems abeg.

The only asset Nigeria has in the eyes of the international community is her population, which ironically is a big liability to us.

You guys are indirectly rejoicing over our own problems, cos I doubt if Ghana will be so keen on doing business with 9ja if not for our population, again, something that is a liability to us.

I don't care what happens in Ghana, I care what happens here.

The border has been closed for some few weeks now and it didn't in any way bettered the life of the common man on the street.
I'm not for or against the boarder closure, I'm just after what will benefit ordinary Nigerian.

[s] We as a country are useless, hopeless and absolutely backward. [/s]

I read it here that after borders closure and ban of some selected items, some textiles redundant workers had been recalled to resume work just because there is demand for the company's textile products.

And Peter Obi the Chinese man was telling us on AIT during the election campaign how Benin Republic and Ghana economy take better pass Nigeria. Na ordinary border closure exposed Peter Obi and his container economy.

Who was taking Obi seriously back then? Obi that had to use the state's money to breath life into his and his family business, a whopping 30 million dollars belonging to the residents of the state!

I was brainwashed into thinking that Alomo bitter is the best aphrodisiac for sexual rendezvous not knowing our local jedi-jedi performs more magic, even at very lower price when compared to Alomo. Go to Oyigbo market, just N100 collection will make u agile and last very long wink

Whatever ghana thinks they have and it's superior to our products, ours at reduced cost beat it hands down.



Who brainwashed you.... Ghanaians or fellow Nigerians? ...or is it you yourself... believing that anything from abroad is better? I can see your eyes are now wide open ... and mouth too.... shouting for all who have ears to hear... the borders should remain closed! Thumbs up to you!

@ topic.... I am wondering why the politicians from the affected countries keep lamenting about the economic effect... produce spoiling.... low sales of cloth etc..... and claiming they are working hard to get the border reopened. To date I.heard not one of them advise the affected to find market within their country and encourage their citizens to patronize them. We are made to eat local pretty much by force...... why can't they? Must it be Nigerians only to buy or consume their products? Three months... and they are still waiting... suffering... and lamenting. Now I wonder which is not so bad.....suffer and smile....or suffer and lament?

You think I am Ghanian abi? cheesy cheesy cheesy grin

Ghana GDP growth rate: 8.5% annual change ‎(2017), Population of 28.83 million
Nigeria GDP growth rate: 0.8% annual change ‎(2017), Population of 190.9 million.

Yet ignorant and delusional Nigerians are still on their chest-beating spectacle. SMH. undecided
You are gullible ....why is Ghanaian crying if Nigerian is not that important and also ur coconut head forget that Nigerian is still the largest economic in the region in terms of GDP

Ghana is “crying” because the border closure is hurting their economy. And this is common sense. Nigeria happily moved from a 6.3% GDP growth to one of recession and World’s Capital of Poverty. Very happily, I must stress.

Ghana does not want to move from a 8.5% GDP growth to a 0.8% like Nigeria. And they are trying to get the border— their main market— opened. They are not foolishly beating their chests and claiming “giant”— because that is foolish.

Hello !
Think before you talk
So u don't show proof that you can do well before u goto schools in Canada and the likes, where u told that they don't written proof exams before u go there, you must pass your core subjects before u are admitted in those schools .
What proof exams do they write in Benin tell me o.

See brother all those universities in the UK, US or Canada aren't programmed stringently to make you fail. Once your money dey your hand you would be offered admission to anyone of your choice....

...I'm not saying there aren't blockheads or dullards in universities in Benin republic but there are still some universities that are worth their salt.. eg IRGIB AFRICA UNIVERSITY,, ask anyone who studied there about the school's standard, their student(s) would come to Nigerian universities and still go head-to-head with first class student(s).....no joke!!

To enter school for naija nah Gold and after you finish no job... lolz,,there isn't pride in that shit

How can their main market be the world’s capital of poverty. I suggest they do business with rich countries henceforth. I don’t think the world’s capital of poverty can help them. They are richer than us.

The DR Congo is a cesspit of war, strife, rape and tribal wars, yet companies and countries do "business" with them. There are billions of cellphones in the world, and all of these gadgets work because of a conflict mineral known as coltan. Chiefly mined in the DR Congo.

The World's Capital of Poverty (thanks to Buhari) is still the World's Capital of Poverty and other countries will want to mine and do business with it. That is just how Capitalism works.

We are talking of Consumer spending power. We are the worlds poverty capital, therefore no money to spend. You guys should look for other countries that are not the worlds poverty capital to sell your goods. We are in recession according to you, so no money to spend. Your country is doing better, 8% vs 0.2%. Let your country men buy your goods. We in Nigeria do not have the money. Our borders remain closed.

You speak with no sense of adventure or arithmetics, so you think the borders are all closed because the hinges holding the borders' doors all got bad and the doors fell back? Do you think the doors are closed against the Ghanaians alone.

Your government said.
1. Nigeria "Subsidized" petroleum products are all over neighbouring countries.
2. 80% of goods crossing the border to Nigeria are unaccounted for interms of tax, country of origin, and originality.
3. Arm polifiration at its peak
4. Locally produced products are suppressed.

These are some of the reasons and the government is right..

Remember foreign rice have been band for a long time now. But they are more in the market than local rice.. How comes?

Thailand government before now said "though Thai rice is band in Nigeria, Nigeria still has the highest bags of Thai rice in circulation because they love Thai rice"

Ask yourself where are they coming in through?

All these my Fellow Nigerians beating their empty chest on this border closure should be asking themselves one question, Why are these countries producing things better than us. Another thing. This will only make them stronger and make us weaker. Competition is what sharpens your business edge. Nigeria I weep for Thee. Sad country, Miserable people dancing in glee on their neighbors misfortune. HOPELESS PEOPLE. Nigeria has no future. GIve Us Biafra

They can't find any other markets for their crappy goods and that's why they are still crying.
