Ikem11:And you think Ghana cares about 80 million dollars. Our free SHS alone cost us 500 million dollars in just one year.One Ghanaian business man is worth times ten of that 80 million dollars. It's chicken change in Ghana. You should buy boko haram and tame them rather or better still,buy Niger Republic and let them stop controlling your country. Stupid talk.Do you know the worth of goods Ghana exports a year alone.That 17 billion dollars will fund 70% of your 25 billion budget for 200 million cows,sorry people. 1 Like 1 Share

What's stopping the trucks from going back Since you don't depend on the zoo ? Tell the trucks to go back period , talking about retaliating what else can you do than closing Nigerian traders shop in Ghana? Is it the first or second time Ghana will do that?

DarkJeddi:We import over 18 billion dollars of goods all over the world so 159 million dollars is chicken feed to Ghana and does not even make up 0.7% of imports into Ghana. They are all Dangote cement and smuggled Nigerian retail products into Ghana and when we block them,nothing will be felt.We already have a larger cement industries in Ghana so I don't know how you see yourself that Ghana needs Nigeria.In which way.We don't even know your country exist so go and sit somewhere. |

ehissi: Your comment is on point! Let us see how Unilever and co who moved manufacturing to Ghana for cheap labour and infrastructure will ship their goods back to the Nigerian market without paying premium at sea ports. Right now, Ghana is enjoying the employment opportunities and economic growth that having those industries there and exporting those products to Nigeria brings, but it is Nigeria that is the main consumer of the goods. Nigerians may feel the pinch of these closed borders, but Ghana and her other African neighbors will surely feel the stab. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

Una don talk well. Great Analysis. Your analysis is perfect if we are dealing with sane climes. Ali said, since the border closure Nigeria Customs is now generating over 5Billion Naira daily which is like 2-2.5Billion more than what we used to generate. Let's use 2Billion Naira as an example, 2 x 365, that's 730Billion Naira ($2.05Billion). Baba, $2.05B don nullify all those losses altogether if you combine all West African countries. Aside from that, locals are also making great gains. In the same vein, we won't be subsidizing smuggled fuel for Benin, Togo, Ghana & Co. In fact, a rice mill owner in Jigawa said his company sold half of the stock that has been kept for one year in one week. He just employed hundreds of youths cos he can't keep up with demands. Border closure can never be the answer but, I think Naija Govt is using this to send a warning to Benin Rep. The smuggling is free flow in that border. Too easy. I think Benin Govt stylishly encourages it. I'm not denying the fact that we have our own corruption problem too. How can a country of 11million people suddenly become 6th Largest Rice importer in the world? Who dey chop am? Naija Govt is losing over $45Billion annually because of loopholes. Chinese guys dey cut rosewood almost free in NW/NE, losing $2Billion annually. Illegal mining in NW, losing $1Billion annually. Oil theft in Niger Delta, losing $12Billion annually according to nigerianrc report in 2018. I believe oil theft is much more, it's around $20B annually. Who is taking advantage of those loopholes? The rich. Abi, me and you fit snuggle 25 tankers/drums (25 x 20k Liters) of fuel in one day. 500k Liters. That's what Ali guys seized from one badass smuggler a few days ago. Imagine if all those are sold for 316 Naira/Liter (official PMS price) in Benin Rep. That is subsidized fuel bought for 142 Naira/Liter in Naija. That's why I pity citizens wey dey praise some of our Elites, dem no know say they are part of the problem.Na we dey kill each other in this country. It's a lie if someone tells you Nigeria is poor, we only have leaders who can't solve problems.. Imagine what Nigeria could do with that extra $45Billion loopholes. If we just dedicate that to education lasan, our Universities will be badasses. $45Billion can give us nice railway networks throughout the country. $45B can build 40 world class hospitals. Imagine if we now consistently make that $45B for 10years. I wish I could do brain transplants for millions of our youths that are just dormant and chasing Bet9ja/BBN "up and down". We need to fight and put the right leadership in place. We can't continue this way. psychologygh: 19 Likes 2 Shares |

edoairways:Actually, most foodstuffs u see in African shops internationally are from Ghana. Others from few west African countries. We need them. Cos we have nothing. Absolutely nothing. We go on trade war with them, We will lose. U stop these importers from importing to Nigeria, they will take them to other countries. Their foodstuffs are better than ours. There is this beans called dangote beans, it take hrs to cook. Put Ghana beans on the fire and fiam, ur beans is ready. Sweater, and faster. These are the things u check.

Realdeals: Alomo bitters and rat poison....don't mind these silly people abeg. There are imports that some economies can not do without. Oil and gas from Nigeria is it for Ghana. Where will they get it from and at what price, if not from Nigeria? Their pump prices are already high. They now have oil, but is it enough to serve their population right now? It's just like the US saying they will no longer need Saudi oil at short notice. 3 Likes |

Olami112:We began deporting Nigerians in the 60s and we have resumed in 2019.You millions of Nigerians living in Ghana will cry xenophobia again when it happens. USA,China whatever choose Ghana over Nigeria just as Toyota and other companies that relocated from Nigeria to Ghana choose Ghana over Nigeria because we have better energy,very peaceful country, less crime,better tax incentives, better port and habours systems and second largest economy in West Africa and so when they produce their items here,they export it to West Africa in the name of ECOWAS. Why do you think they're building the Africa Free Trade Agreement Headquarters in Accra,Ghana. We beat you widely in the World bank Ease of doing business countries.

omozu1: That's not true. African nations are doing very well from Rwanda , Egypt and even Ghana. African's wealth is not dependent on Nigeria bro, wake up from that sleep. I have been to some few African Nations and they are doing alot well better than Nigeria. You think by closing the borders will make Nigeria do well ? Sorry to dissapoint you, only Nigerian Custom will make money from it and proberbly NIgerian Goverment. How does that affect me and you positively ? The money is still going to the already corrupt Custom and goverment and other Nigerians doing small scale business will be on the loosing ends because they dont have money to ship through air or ship. And we consume alot from that they bring in and that will just make prices of commodity go up. Why is the goverment not tackling the custom officials that allows goods enter Nigeria illegally. |

chrisagyei: I guess you must be from either OYO or Kwara. Infact you must be from Futa Jalon. Warning ko warming ni. So even Ghana can warn Nigeria. People who come here to get Nigerian passports to travel to Europe. Nigerian trucks enter Ghana and Ghanaian trucks cannot enter Nigeria. How does it sound to you? Before this ban 100s of trucks would arrive Nigeria from these our neighbors without stress. Duty paid on cars and goods were deliberately lowered by these countries to subvert the Nigerian economy and grow theirs. They all feed off the Nigeria economy and yet our people have no peace of mind in their countries. Even Republic of Benin harasses and deports Nigerians almost on daily basis. If you want to find out how many trucks arrive Nigeria everyday from these countries, please go and stand at Seme and Idiroko borders and count. Don’t talk about what you have no information about please. 6 Likes |
