Just30: Will you stop with your lies. Purchasing power in Ghana is 3 times LESS than what you have in Nigeria. I live in Ghana and so i know. Your country is so unnecessarily foolish that it has forced its own people to be reliant on Charcoal and firewood and pit toilets even in the cities. This is just so the people can cut down expenses on LPG and water bills. 8 Likes |

psychologygh:. What is all this retaliation bullshit, let GUTA try anything they want let us see, not issue of hate, Nigeria only sneezed Ghana economy is now shaking, this is even when nobody or country is targeted, let them start economy war or sabotage on Nigeria you can bet me Ghana will collapsed within six months, in as much as some Nigerian business men will be affected but Ghana economy will see hell, Nigeria does not produce anything that need to be sold in Ghana, Dangote us even selling in Ghana at the rate of 800 Naira while he is selling in Nigeria above 2000, because of his greed if you like you can stop buying his cement, it doesn't even concern Nigeria 2 Likes |

psychologygh: I am highly disappointed by your stance on this issue. Nigeria is hemorrhaging from our borders, and instead of you guys to understand and help profer a solution, you are threatening trade war. You even said you have similar issues with Togo, I expected you work with Nigeria diplomatically to solve the problem. Do you know the damage the western and Northern borders are doing to our economy? Are you aware that we import (and pay subsidiaries on 40 million litres of petrol everyday) one would think we drink petrol like alcohol. Since the border closure, our fuel consumption is said to reduce to 30 million litres per day. Imagine multiplying 10 million by N50 subsidy everyday (apart from depleting our foreign reserves from the actual importation). Then there is the vexatious issue of using Benin and Togo as a transit point for smuggling all sorts of goods into Nigeria, cars, rice, poultry, second hand clothing including socks and bra, etc. The smuggling activities undermine all government policies. No other country in this world would endure the kinds of sabotage to its economy as being done by our neighbours. You are saying the same falsehood that enemies of Nigeria are propagating, that Nigeria banned importation from other countries. This is very far from the truth. What was banned was importation through the land borders (for now). Ghana, being our closest west African brother should look for ways of addressing our concerns by suggesting alternative solutions, like creating a fool proof corridor or using shipping lanes, instead of threatening and emotional rants. Believe me the $300 million yearly trade Nigeria does with Ghana pales into insignificance, when compared to the daily damage to our economy by smuggling. 14 Likes |

Just30: If Ghana is a El Dorado and self sufficient as you want us to believe,why don't you simply ignore whatever we do with our border? The rate at which you are barking up and down like a mad dog here shows that something is terribly eating you and your Ghana up! I honestly don't blame you but those my countrymen who dignify a low life ugly dwarf Ghanaian like you by responding to your fooleries. Even if the economy of your pygmy enclave is bigger than that of the United State,our borders remain closed and no amount of threats,real or imaginary, will make us open them for the benefits of parasitic neighbours. Now go away,your ugliness irritates me please. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

winterfell007:I say you guys only regurgitate economic theories you read in text books, you have no idea of how it works in the real world. Most countries of the world employ protectionist policies. Donald Trump is a hardliners protectionist. He has imposed tarrifs on almost all goods coming into the US. He does not believe in free trade and open borders. Same with China. China is over protectionist. You cannot import anything freely into China, not even technology. It is only weak developing nations that the western developed countries through the world Bank and IMF tries to force to open their borders to free trade. 8 Likes |

Johans1991:stop reasoning upside down do you think Nigeria Alone buy those made in Nigeria good's or imported goods all the surrounding countries patronized Nigeria market the same way Nigeria patronized other countries we all need each other. Ghana make enough Money from their land borders same with Togo I don't know about Benin republic is because their borders and custom are well organize. Nigeria has more custom on the road yet they complaining of smuggling what are those customs doing there. If foreign rice Turkey are the problem why not put laws that Will scared people way from smuggling it into the country like five years in prison for any driver found with one bowl of rice or a kilo of Turkey and after six months any shop within the country that is selling foreign rice or Turkey will be close down you tell me if it will not work. 4 Likes |

When have you thanked Yoruba for putting Nigeria on the map? Everything you brag about in Nigeria is something that came about from Yoruba. The border we are talking about is Yoruba. I'm all that and a bag of chips! Wherever you go it's the Yoruba achievements you show off to the world, Yoruba world stands alone unrivaled in Nigeria. May Sopona strike you! obidark: 3 Likes |

They should go a head. Nigeria is the largest population in African. We can survive without selling our product to them. Many company relocate to Ghana and the target buyer is Nigerian. Closure of borders is the best things for Nigeria. If PMB will do like China, he will close borders for all goods not only rice and vehicle. China did it and it work for them. We can Start producing everything in Nigeria by ourselves. If we close borders all the company that is producing what we are consumed in Nigeria will come and establish their company in Nigeria and people will get job. 5 Likes |
