When did trade opened Kenya is ahead of Nigeria in all aspects at first it was Kenya versus Nigeria I was just keeping quiet and watching they did Nigeria started insulting Ghana South Africa Benin Republic Tanzania buswana Malawi Angola and Other African countries. I could not take it anymore I had to get involved and caution my people they are on a path which has no reckoning. Look at the mess today if Benin Republic and Togo Republic is doing better than Nigeria economy. Let a elephant be an elephant and a donkey be a donkey but we have to tell ourselves the truth.

It is very difficult argue with somebody which things about running away from the country and always sex. Most of the time you spend on romance section talking about sex and how women come back running to you. I think it is high time you get a job womanizing does not pay

As a second opportunity to redeem urself, "how is Nigeria's population the main reason Nigeria has a bigger economy than SA"?

because larger population = more people contributing to GDP..... Do you know the definition of GDP or must I explain that to you as well?

Opera Square shops are owned by Ghanaians..


I told you you were bitter.... Most Ghanaians are beginning to refuse renting their properties to Nigerians because of the experience they've had with Nigerian tenants.

Mind you, you don't pay maintenance insurance to land Lord's when you rent their place...
So what happens when your rent contract ends and the property is damaged? The Land Lord bear the cost, right?


Most Nigerian tenants have been cruel yo their land Lord's, some will leave a one week poop in the WC for the Land Lord to clean.

Others will break WCs and Window glasses and leave..
Some Land Lord's also have their own houses on the same compound and don't like the noise associated with most Nigerian tenants.

Take note of the word most and not all

While you are here bitterly complaining, you've forgotten that, gone were the days when Ghanaians will happily rent their properties to foreigners especially Nigerians ... Because they get to charge higher rent.

Stop crying and complaining and blame your own attitude for the current situation

Let's address the second issue you raised. Firstly, my earlier post Used the word foreigners because I'm more connected to the francophone community in ghana than Nigerians because I've lived in two French speaking countries and when I said landlords are refusing foreigners house, I don't mean Nigerians alone. A friend of mine paid for a place and had his money returned to him the following day because " he is a foreigners". Now to issue of "Nigerians not taking care of peoples' houses" that's a fat lie cos there are more responsible Nigerians here than the rascals mostly doing fraud. Why is that you're going to rent a house and the Ghanaian agent will tell you to say you're not from Nigeria or he'll rent the apartment using his name? So isn't the house owner supposed to see the character his let his space to so as to access him or not..

So there's no good Nigerian? Some years back when you read a bad Nigeria story on Ghana web, you'd hear most Ghanaians say the only good Nigerian is a dead one, all Nigerians are criminals. Now you don't see those harsh comments anymore, why?

Because the Nigerians have consciously tried to turn their 'bad' story around. Nigeria that was once associated with fraud, 419, now we associate with Davido, WizKid, afrobeat, nollywood,comedy, entrepreneurship etc

There're good positive Nigerians, let's stop lumping all of them together in one basket and giving them a bad name. Even with all their negatives, epileptic power supply etc they're running the biggest economy in Africa, not Egypt, not South Africa, not Algeria. Let's put some respec on their name

theenchanter:
I'm not denying the fact that population also play a role in economic development, but that huge population might also be a deterrent to economic growth.

Huge population can only benefit a nation when majority of the populace are educated, industrious or skilled. And govt of such nation will spend more on infrastructures, education, health etc than nations with lesser population.

Huge population does not = Huge economy. At least I know Japan and Germany has a bigger economy than countries with more population than both nations.

Are you being deliberately obtuse or do you just want to justify how your imaginary GDP is not rigged?

A huge population contributes to high tax returns, huge labor input, huge consumption rates, huge cash flow...... Name them.

In an African context, big pp plays a huge role in GDP. Population goes hand in hand with the economy. Observe the trend from BC to date; the dynamic in GDP growth can't be tucked away - of course with the impact of population growth rate. Nigeria of 1990 had a mere 95million pp with a paltry $54billion GDP. In 2022, your population in nearly thrice with 8 times GDP. Don't come with the invention and innovation shenanigans cos pp is the enabler of that.

The life-cycle hypothesis can also help you decipher the impact of population on an economy.

Yes, a huge population does not equate to a huge economy, but it is the key driver that greases the wheel for other economic activity - cos here, we talk of numbers.

High tax returns eh, but Egypt, like SA still get more from tax than Nigeria.

Huge labor... Yeah, if the population are educated or skilled, not when unskilled, that'll create poor economic output.
Huge consumption rate.... YES
Huge cash flow..... Capital NO!

Population goes hand in hand with economic growth..... Not entirely true.

Nigeria of 1990 and today's difference are wide apart like the space between ur skull and ur brain because Nigeria of 90's was like north Korea of today, military quagmire. U can't compare both economic development, u still don't have sense.

How is it measured?

GDP can be measured in three ways:
Output: The total value of the goods and services produced by all sectors of the economy - agriculture, manufacturing, energy, construction, the service sector and government

Expenditure: The value of goods and services bought by households and by government, investment in machinery and buildings - this also includes the value of exports, minus imports

Income: The value of the income generated, mostly in terms of profits and wages.


Where did population comes in?

Population doesn’t produce goods and services but through people’s innovations.

Meaning, Nigerians are more innovative than South Africans. That’s all.

A dump population can’t create wealth. Goods and services didn’t germinate from the ground rather it was through the innovations of the people and the ability to grow it.

.
If GDP is going up steadily, people will pay more tax simply because they're earning and spending more.

This is as a result of people’s innovations that create wealth not dumb population.

NIGERIA: A COUNTRY OF CHEAP TERTIARY EDUCATION by Adeola Daramola

I was surprised when my claim that Nigeria offers one of the cheapest tertiary education in the world was met with disdain. What worried me most was the fact that the disdain came from people who enjoyed and still enjoying the highly subsidized tertiary education.

Some people who agreed were quick to label the Education substandard just to ridicule the country. No matter what we feel about the country, the fact that we all enjoyed cheap tertiary education can not be controverted. The fact speaks for itself.

I gained admission to the then Ondo State University, Ado Ekiti in 1996/97 session. My tuition fee was N5,150. It was one of the most expensive in the country then. I paid N4,850, N4,350 and N3,850 in second, third and final year respectively.

I paid a total of N18,200 in 4 years for a University degree.

At that time, my counterparts in Obafemi Awolowo University were paying N500 as tuition. You heard me right, five hundred naira. This token gave them access to the university health care as well as the library. N90 (Ninety Naira) was their hostel fees for a session. My mates got a University degree from OAU Ife with less than N4,000 . It may interest you to know that medical students in the school paid the same ridiculous amount .

This is not a story of Lord Lugard Era. A Youth Corper allowee at that time was N3,750. Which means, a corper can sponsor someone in the University without blinking an eyelid .

By the time I started my youth service in 2002, a youth corper allowee has been increased to N7,500. This means that my 3 months corper allowee was by far higher than what I paid in 4 years as school fees in a state university.

We are quick to compare Nigeria with the US, Canada, UK and other "saner climes". Someone even said Nigeria does not have students loan. The loan system was instituted in these countries because an average citizen can not afford tertiary education. It may interest you to know that Obama was already the President before he finished paying his student loan. I don't think any bank will give you a loan to pay the ridiculous amount we pay as fees in Nigerian Universities. Till date the average tuition in public universities in Nigeria is N50,000.

Nigeria, arguably, has the highest number of University graduates per square kilometre in the world . Thanks to the highly subsidized education we all enjoyed.

In saner climes, no middle income earner can sponsor a child in the University without resorting to loans that will take the student years to clear. You need as high as $80,000 to study medicine and $60,000 to study law. This did not include hostel accommodation. You will pay as high as $14,000 per session for hostel accommodation. I am using Canada as a case study. Note that education is cheaper in Canada than US . A middle income earner in Nigeria will sponsor a child in a public university without any problem. Infact, a youth corper can afford to send his sibling to a university and afford the fees.

As per the quality, UK has poached 7,000 Nurses from Nigeria within the last 12 months. Saudi Arabia, Canada and UK are scrambling to poach all our Doctors that were trained cheaply by our Government. I don't think these countries will come to pack our "low quality" graduates to fill their " high quality" health institutions.

We believe it is low quality because we got it cheaply. Skilled workers trained by our universities are currently running the show in Canada, UK and US.

I was present in a forum where Mr Babalola, a leading immigration lawyer in Toronto, was delivering a paper. The first thing he did was to thank Nigeria for the cheap education given to him. Babalola studied law at the University of Ibadan. He knew he would have paid through his nose to get a Law degree in Canada.

I deliberately posted this tertiary education claim on our independence day because some people said there is nothing to celebrate in Nigeria. If an ungrateful person gets to Paradise, he will find nothing to celebrate there. It is simply a matter of perspective. You don't value what you have until you lose it.

No country is completely good or completely bad. It depends on what you want to see. I have met Canadians who did not see anything good in their country. Someone said good people will always see the good in people. In the same vein, I believe good citizens will always see the good in their country.

Nigeria's education is one of the cheapest in the world, I can attest to that. It should be among the top 5 cheapest in the continent......esp if u attend a federal institution.

Always you know someone or it's about your friend, from your own comments it's obvious you and your friends have some criminal aura surrounding you and that's what's preventing people from treatimg you well.

Sometimes you need to have a personal introspection, check yourself and stop blaming people for your bad attitude.
