Ugosample: That's just wickedness... If you call someone your friend, you don't abandon that person to the point of allowing the person to sleep on the streets in another country. From your comment, it shows you can also do something like that... No brotherly love anymore. ![]() Nigeria is not the best country in the world I admit, but compared to living an unsheltered life in Ghana of all places? Don't be ignorant.... 7 Likes 2 Shares |

germanized: well living as a squatter anywhere is a bad choice tho It's better to be hungry and suffering in NiggerArea than squatting in an uncompleted building in Ghana At least you will. see what we used to call "mama thank you" to chop from time to time to ease hunger from your miserable existence in the world poverty capital... that's better than roaming aimlessly in Kasoa looking for whom to rob... But then, the life is screwed either ways |

germanized: I help from a distance tho.... I have helped one brother with mobile money like three times and that was it.. I don't come close like that... Nigerians are not to be trusted But from helping you from a distance, if you earn my trust, i can then open up to you If we were CLOSE friends back in the day, then it's a different case |

ifyalways:In fact you really have Ghana experience. You only talked about Accra mosquitoes and didn't talk about the bad odour coming out of every angle in Accra. Go to dome st. John,agbogbloloshie,Sodom and Gomorrah,kwabeyan,alajo,kaneshie and many other places in and around Accra and see life. Almost everything about GH is overhyped.Even the light dey go wella(dum-sir,dum-sir is the term I.e on and off).If you really want to understudy Ghana,just go to their other regions like Volta, Eastern or Northern region and see how Ghanaians are suffering. If you are not a businessman,pls don't go there or unless you are into yahoo yahoo. If you have your money, you can go for adventures, but remember Ghana is expensive.

Ugosample:let me get this straight because im really confused here 1. from u almost everybody living in Nigeria is poor. (sorry im not) 2. according to u and i quote ''Except you are in the political elite @class, or Corporate titan class (top echelon of corporate NIGERIA) or you have a networth of $300k upwards liquid, you are fooling yourself in NiggerArea thinking you are living life...'' that means everybody living in ivory coast have $300k? and the ivory coast that u currently reside is a first world country right? they are very rich. a classic case of giving a dog a bad name just to kill it.

mikron: I travel a lot... (call me a nomad ifyou want) But I spend the most months of the year in Abidjan, hence it being my base "at least for now" That country is what Nigeria will NEVER BE in 20 years You do not see extreme poverty in abundance like you see in nigger Area the people here ball Monday to Sunday because they have not been subjected to unfold suffering the scale of NIGERIA How many Ivorians run to France the way you niggers run out to say anywhere for treatment? the hospitals are good enough even a fool in abobo will sleep under A.C. this night while niggers will be sleeping in heat and mosquito ![]() They eat better (food is cheaper) they have better infrastructures than your zoo even in a rundown place like abobo, they still have street light and running water Does Lekki have street lights, central sewage system and pipeborne water? NOPE NA overhead tanks with polluted water, pocket of steetlight and noisy generators una get ![]() bomboclat zoo All you need to do is comehere and see for yourself ![]() ignorance is bliss and a trip to that country will cure you of ignorance Doyou know how many visas one has gotten from here because you have the "carte de sejour" here? You cannot knuw; because it's a coded runs as for throwing away my Nigerian passport... once the time comes, and I acquire another one..... I go just keep the ones I have used already in the archives NiggerArea passport that has caused me so so much stress ![]() when you travel often like I do to different countries, you will understand my anger with Zoogeria... and for those who travel and are still happy with the things going on, their minds are little. 10 Likes |

mikron: okay.... Let me break it down to you.... Life in Nigeria (let mr call it that) is HELLISH And it has a bleak future with the way kids are popping, and the excruciating unemployment levels CIV on the other hand has unemployment issues (not to the degree of Nigeria tho, as they are lucky to have so much foreign investments that create jobs for them, plus a huge public sector that absorbs them) CIV (and indeed most of the countries I stay intermittently in) enjoy a BETTER standard of living than you will find in Nigeria. And that issa fact (ask anyone else who lived in multiplr countries) to live the standard of life that a lower middle class Ivorian or say Turkish person lives, you will need to run your gen 24/7 (they have the light already) raise a tank above your house to get water ( they get water directly to their house, no need for pumping machine trouble) build high fences (they don't need that, secure and barricade yourself (they also do not need thst) and the list goes on..... Nigeria ranis below CIV and Turkey in every Human Development Index.... NIGERIA the poverty capital of the world should tell you something I have travelled to all regions in Nigeria apart from NE and I have seen poverty like I have never seen elsewhere apart from Liberia and Sierra Leone In that country that is my point tho it's somewhat easier for a Nigerian to make quick money (especially if you have no conscience and you are ready to do whatever, to what end really? when you will still livein fear so except you are very loaded, i see no reason why anyone will want to live in Nigeria If only Nigeria can fix its power problen; security problem and curb it's soaring inflatoo rate, the quality of life will improve so much But till then the country is still failed 7 Likes |

Ugosample:you are comparing ivory coast a country of about 24.29 million to Nigeria with almost 200m. the whole of ivory coast at 24.2m is not upto the population of lagos (17.5m) and kano (9.4m). do u think if Nigeria was just lagos and kano we wouldnt have been at par with some European countries in terms of infrastructure and standard of living? agreed our leaders failed us but we will get it right sooner than later. but pls dont compare naija and ivory coast. its like comparing a 3 ft man with a 6 ft man. i reserve my comment. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Ugosample:cocoa is good but it has a lot of interest to foreigners with huge capital base,since it is an international commodity. My advise is to start with supply first,observe the business's potentials first and if possible supposed market share before setting up retail a chain. Nothing is worse than setting up retail structures without patronage.sounds like a recipe for collapse ![]() All through my time of business in CEMAC,I realised that it will be better to remain a supplier of products than setting up shop for the kind of business I do,even though I've got better pricing.But it all depends on the kind of business anyway. I like your visions and I clearly endorse it.goodluck! All these people running their mouths are just not experienced! They just hide in their dark homes in Lagos probably thinking it's the best life a person could ever get. It pays to travel for real ![]() 4 Likes |

Rhea:boss the slogan of Accra is cry Your cry. Even ur brother at some point will jilt u. I had friends that travelled there to hustle because they were assured of steady balling when they get there unfortunately some had to jump through the fence to escape from the hellish treatment they were being subjected to,the nauseating part of it all was that they never stayed with strangers they stayed with friends that they grew up together,friends that they had known all their lifetime. friends they could call their own brothers.imagine drinking just one sachet of water in a day,Accra is cry ur cry. 2 Likes 1 Share |
