Nigerians youths are just lazy and illetrates... There's not much hope for the future of this country...

It's clearly stated that Nigeria goods are entering ghana without issues and reverse is the case in Nigeria... All of a sudden people are wanking and masturbating over how great Nigeria is.... Perhaps it's the traffic quality of nairaland?

Anyways most nairalanders don't even know the location of seme border, and lack exposure hence the low iq comments

Please help me sound it louder.. Don't know why they are missing the simple link of Nigerians doing business in Ghana and not allowing Ghana goods go through to Nigeria. Nigerian's always looking for a way to make themselve feel good. Great Giant nation with alot of youths that has failed to use there head and currupt politicians.

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.

kikiki you have forgotten the part of production were it finally ends up in the ends of the final consumers can your people consume all you produce no? Nigeria is a consuming country where we consume a lot and produce less economic wise GH will still suffer plus Ng is a gateway to other neighboring countries without Ng distributing your goods to other consumers in WA would be so expensive (air n water that the traders are scared of) that it would gulp a large chunk of profit even before sales are made but through land you make sales on transit at a cheap transit cost, you don't even need to leave Ng before consumers consume everything you want to sell to Ng and other African countries so sorry do your logical thinking

psychologygh:
Stupid talk and do you think the LNG is for free.And we produce our own crude and buy proper refined crude from Europe not Nigeria who can't even refine a quarter of their oil.Why do you think you're the only one who sells LNG.You rather loose if we decide not to buy your LNG and by God's grace we now produce our own LNG now so we don't buy yours again.Listen,our energy sector is far stable and better than yours with blackouts everyday in your country. We enjoy 24/7 electricity throughout the year in Ghana which is a dream in Nigeria

Another illegal comment smuggled through the border......

Charlie!!

For ya mind now na only someway people dey experience dumsor for ghana ba, especially since PDS takeover of ECG, Electricity company of Ghana . Real Charlie for town, light na 24hrs, last last na dumkraa ba......

That moment when a resident in Ghana tries to replace our own Lai mohammed, illegally via a smuggled comment that came via the 504 border gateway to Nairaland.....

All boasting tied to maximum national generating capacity of 500megawatts (as if there are even at full capacity).........

Chai!! See ghanians! They can proud, na their minister still come Naija dey beg but someway people dey roar for Nairaland....

Chai......

Modified: Better be praying for your country to become as indispensible as Nigeria in the region, instead of throwing fake shades around, before Proper Dumsor Service, PDS give you better Dumsor whey go make you craze, run come Nigeria come charge phone.......

NIGERIA is the NUMBER 1 LARGEST ECONOMY IN AFRICA Please take a back sit, shut up and let your elders discuss.

psychologygh:
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. Any sane business man will choose Ghana over Nigeria.

Our problem is not that we don't produce but
the cost of production and that is what govt
should be worried about not outrightly closing
borders.

Nigerians anyi atokirina!!!!

Which trade war, were u told that the sea port is closed? Bolo haram have lingered on cos of our porous boarders.

chrisagyei:
****did you hear her.Nigerian goods are entering into Ghana freely buh you refuse these trucks who had already set off entry so they want to even return back.And GUTA was told to open Nigerian shops and stop the protest because you Nigerians run to these same ECOWAS to cry free trade agreement. Over 400 Nigerian shops were locked in just one town in another city called Kumasi alone which was just a spare parts dealership town.Imagine the millions of Nigerians who will go hungry in Ghana had GUTA locked up your shops and closed Nigerian retail businesses throughout Ghana. They just sounded a warning to the minister to inform you that if Ghana retaliates, it will be very ugly so stop saying trash.

Are we locking up your shops in Nigeria? Close your own borders too and see if we care.

psychologygh:
are you serious.We export over 17 billion dollars worldwide and you are telling me 80 million dollars. 80 million dollars is less than 0.5% of our exports if you care to know.and they don't mean shit to us.Those are even former Nigerian companies who were forced to relocate to Ghana to continue manufacturing into your market because of your lack of energy and necessary business friendly infrastructure. Nigeria means nothing to Ghana okay. Even in ECOWAS, you're 4th in terms of Ghana exports partners.159 million dollars that you import to Ghana is far double than 80 million dollars we export to Nigeria so your country loose more when a trade war begins.

oga go and tell this to your minister , them her to implement counter tradewar on nigeria, for all i know ,we aint opening that border for a very long time , maybe in december ,just maybe ,then january we will relocked it ...when you meet your minister ask her why they followed the route of diplomacy instead of their useless proud style ... abi are you trying to tell me you are wiser than your minister?

We must be respected. Ghana shior

backnbeta:

You think those closed naija shops in Ghana define the economy of Nigerians living in Nigeria? I don't support the bad Belle border closure, but I don't see how Guta's threat in Ghana have any effect...the worst they'll do is to close the shops again

If the shops are closed what do they think we happen to their businesses in Nigeria. Border closure and shops own by foreigners are two different things.

psychologygh:
First of all,Ghana imports over 18 billion dollars of goods into the country so Nigeria's 159 million dollars is very insignificant and less than 0.7% of Ghana's import.Secondly these imports are from Nigerian businesses such as Dangote cement and other Nigerian retailers who resell their items in our informal markets which is even illegal in Ghana. These things never affects us if it ceased cos we already have a huge cement industry in Ghana. 159 million dollars is chicken feed to Ghana same as 80 million dollars is nothing to Nigeria. Our GDP is over 65 billion dollars for a country of 29 million people and the second largest in West Africa. ECOWAS inter country trade accounts for the least amount of trade between Ghana and Nigeria .What the minister is telling your ambassador is those trucks had already set off and didn't know of the border closure so either they make them enter or they returned because Ghana has not blocked Nigerian goods from entering Ghana.

you don't understand the motive behind the border closure learn about it n let your people use air or water but if they insist they want to stop Nigerian goods as a counter GH would feel the heat the mwar n you know already your people are making the life of Nigerian traders over there a hell if they stop Nig goods the traders would have to start coming home so either ways GH still loose so see the border closure for what it is n not trade war

are you alright. Check the amount of exports Ghana exports to Nigeria compared to what Nigeria exports to Ghana. Ghana doesn't need any ECOWAS and if there's a trade war,Nigeria loses 159 million dollars whilst Ghana loses just 80 million dollars. Ghana exports over 17 billion dollars of goods just in 2018 and Nigeria is not even among top 10 export countries of Ghana even in Africa.All our products are exported outside Africa.Its the millions of Nigerians and their businesses in Ghana who loses not Ghana so think well before trying anything foolish with us.We never rely on your zoo.We're not Benin Republic. It's just that those trucks had already set off so they don't know if they should return back. If they do and we start retaliating, hope you don't cry xenophobia again.

Did I hear you say you don't rely on Nigeria? Maybe you were too young when Koffour government relied on Nigeria crude even though the then NPP government does have cash to pay for the products, no government anywhere in the world will sell crude oil on credit but we did it as way of supporting your Hippick Economy, are we talking about West Africa Gas Pipeline? I hope you know how much your country owing us on Gas supply? Should I go on and on? The truth is that Nigeria government have been playing a big brother role to you guys but you guys are simply ingrate.


Our government need to look inwards, our national interest will now take front banner rather than some ungrateful Neighbors.

The same assumption that your watering soup is the best despite smelling like engine oil! The same assumption that says your currency is the best while u know deep down that some bourgeois zeros was removed from the original currency when the entire Ghanaians were already billionaires due to the bleeped up notes!Africa is rising! Rwanda is rising! Kenya is running! Zimbabwe is giggling! Keep on with your Self delusion! Even Egypt and South Africans that are super power ain't trading war with Nigerians! Oponu

Please let Ghana do the needful by sending them back and let see which of the two countries will suffer the most

Let them stop bandits and illegal fulanis too... Then the border can b open

NIGERIA is the NUMBER 1 LARGEST ECONOMY IN AFRICA Please take a back sit, shut up and let your elders discuss.

Number one economy in Africa? It is now I know the quality of discussion on Nairaland. Nigeria with an estimated budget of $24 billion with population estimated at 200 million and two parasite nations up North . This is a budget to support large population and bad infrastructure.

You have South Africa with budget of $122 billion and estimated population of 60 million with more developed infrastructure and industries.

The mentality of some Nigerians can lead to their oppression in foreign lands. Ghana should not lockup Nigerians stores in Accra.

Area4Area:
What is the percentage of our export to Ghana compared to our GDP, equally compare your export to Nigeria with your GDP and tell us which has a higher proportion.

Intelligent retort man. Nice

King44:
you don't understand the motive behind the border closure learn about it n let your people use air or water but if they insist they want to stop Nigerian goods as a counter GH would feel the heat the mist

What is happening is the border closure came without any announcements so the already left trucks had to be prevented from entering. That is why the minister is telling the ambassador to inform your officials to allow those trucks already there to enter because currently, Nigerian trucks keep entering into Ghana without any stoppage.If you have issues with Benin, don't involve Ghana. Your ambassador has understood it that Ghana is not the target so he will inform the authorities to allow those trucks to enter.And we don't depend on any Nigerian market cos we already have international buyers and Nigeria cannot afford to even buy our exports worth over 17 billion dollars yearly. Our partners are in Asia,Europe and the USA.South Africa is the only African nation who buys our goods of about 12%.Nigeria and Ghana have no trade relationships except the 80 million dollars Ghana exports to Nigeria and 159 million dollars Nigeria exports to Ghana which Nigeria will loose more if both countries close their borders.Now Ghana has not retaliates yet.

Our common enemy here is cost of production. Only when it is tackled that our goods will be cheaper than imported.

Sir go back to school since we are the one losing then why threaten us we like to loose the let our borders be shut, populations will always win if u export 17billion then who benefits Nigeria or Ghana cos I know the money goes back to Ghana we just consume you products but now we are tired we don’t want your export again go and shove it up your asses

We no want Adonko bitters again

Shut up Nigeria is the 4th on Ghana export list stop saying rubbish

Can't you read.It says 4th in ECOWAS, West Africa. Ghana trades more between Burkina Faso and Cote D'Ivoire than Nigeria. Nigeria is number 4 in West Africa and that amount is just 80 million dollars which can't even pay salaries of teachers in Greater Accra for even 3 months. That trade money is chicken feed and mind you we also buy 159 million dollars of your products which we can choose to buy it elsewhere which you will loose that money.Your country is useless to us.
