What is this clown saying?
His can an economy be big and not successful?
Nigeria is producing more start ups than any country in Africa because of our economy.

More than east, central or west Africa combined.

The bulk of your education revenue come from misguided Nigerians schooling there who are exploited and billed for shitty education.

Our banks are your biggest banks employing thousands of your ungrateful people and introducing technological solutions as soon as they are integrated in Nigeria.
Many of your west african neighbours can't even transfer money electronically in real time.
From your entertainment to your financial sector to even energy, Nigerian investment runs through.
The biggest and possibly only real cinema in Ghana is Nigerian- Silver bird cinemas.
Nigeria has successfully modernized your country.
I don't know what made you deserve it. Possibly because you are the nearest anglophone country geographically to Nigeria.

Those investments can flow out just the same way it came in

Your government knows it. GUTA and other Ghanian illiterates don't know it.
Actually i am not in the mood of ego competition.

A bigger economy does not translate to successful economy and with your other ranting it only show you aren't exposed yourself and it seems you hardly know how buisness work . A Nigerian bank in Ghana is listed on stock exchange , making it practically Ghanaian equity as well. at least regarding the cinemas, it only shows you know next to nothing . goggle local Ghana cinemas .

I will have aid your understanding but i want to take my breakfast now

They don't know what they are doing.

If they did, they would do something different than going against the economic power of the region.

Nigeria can decide to call their bluffs and retaliate heavily.
Who do you think will win?
If you remove those petty traders, what else do you have up your sleeves?

Your own government is appealing for caution because they know what is up, but nationalistic nitwits wants to ruin everything.
and what do you have left
since you've aready block Ghanaian goods

cos there are more ways Ghana can retaliate than you can.

redraw the licenses of Nigerian banks in Ghana
In the end, it will all lead to expulsions.

Nigeria has nothing to retaliate with

I don't think this is connected to the border closure issue, though some Ghanaians may use that as yet another excuse to carry out this latest incident.

Ghanaian traders have been repeatedly taking this same action against Nigerians trading in their markets long before now. They claim they can't compete with the Nigerians whom have better access to funds to compete with them in their own markets. undecided

The Ghanaians are also saying that Nigerian traders are bringing into Ghana goods that are already banned in Nigeria. However, the Nigerian businessmen import and clear these goods at the ports in Cotonou and then transport the goods into Ghana using the land borders, thereby also denying the Ghana govt. the needed revenue.
Per ECOWAS laws, only goods manufactured within the sub-region can be freely transported across the land borders. This is to avoid situations whereby member states could use different import/customs tariffs to undermine the economies and trade among member states in the sub-region.
In a nutshell, if you want to import goods that are not manufactured in ECOWAS, you can only import and sell in the same country, but not to import in Cotonou and go sell in Nigeria etc. This is same reason Nigeria closed the borders because of the importation of rice into Cotonou and then transporting same to sell in Nigeria.
The Ghanaians are saying foreign business men should do only wholesale trade, and leave the retail segment for only indigenes.

I see nothing wrong with this though.

Ghana is a very small country its cities are less than 5, then all it's population move there, they are poor and trying to survive and then immigrants come in to compete With the little businesses they have.

Nigeria has 36 States in fact 37, out of all these 36 States some States have more than 1 city in one state while some have urban towns plus there capital cities.

Instead of relocating to Ghana why don't we try to fill up these cities and do our businesses.

With the way Ghana keeps holding its peace very soon xenophobia might start in Ghana, let's tet and respect there laws Nigeria is big enough for us.

Then they should stop coming to Nigeria to buy goods, there by putting pressure on our hard currency dollars that is given to importers in a CBN rate.
Ghana must stop coming to Nigeria to buy our imported goods

They closed their border, also. Therefore I, a Ghanian-Nigerian am unhappy with Nigeria and Buhari.

Wait till we cut off our gas supply which is being used to power your energy sector and economy in general. Then, you will know that importance of Nigeria to your country is more than land borders closure

If we make this move permanent, Ghana economy will cripple, your President is crying already, and your minister said it in an interview, he is smarter than you, listen to him. The banks there pay lots of taxes to your government, give loans to Ghana businesses, and give Ghanaians good paying jobs. They will just move their equity to other markets or ventures...Think before you talk, but yet again you are Ghanaian, your iq can never be on same level as a Nigerian.

Our markets are filled with food, our lands are fertile, and the only major produce we import is rice,our producers are bridging the gap between demand and supply,and Nigerians will soon loose taste for those plastic rice,and embrace our natural Ofada rice and other brands by Dangote and co... There is yams, plaintans, potatoes, cassava,millet,wheat, corn...rice is not the only staple food there is, Nigerians will start eating other foods more and rice less,that solves the problem of rice prices.

another Ghanaphobia

If Ghana can challenge our citizens there, then it can only prove no African Nation that still hold us in high esteem, hence Nigerians are suffering both home and abroad, for just been a citizen of this uselss country for some people.


This qouted epitomises Africans, why Africans are "natural slaves" and sold their people into slavery. Africans do not want to see the progress of other Africans not of their area and will do anything to belittle any other African not of their area that threaten to win the respect of none Africans. One of the many reasons I love Nigerians is that, among Africans, the area called Nigeria seem peopled by those capable of appreciating other Africans, wishing those Africans well and praising and elevating those above himself, a very rare quality in Africa and precious . One of the many reasons I have come to loathe Ghanaians is that their mindset is envious and filled with those little negative things which to together epitomises the failure of the black race. He is a monumental COON, seller of own kind, the people of the crab barrel. He is only capable of wanting good for those not of his race, loving them and elevating them no mater what they do to him and his kind.


Nigerians need to wish Ghana /Ghanaians well, for they are Africans, and then turn your backs on them. Leave their Nation if possible and face front. Do Nigerian things, praise Nigerian things, keep em out of your words, music, blogs, and talk; just face Nigerian issues and Nigeria future.

We Nigerian have a fight on our hands to build a great Nigeria that will help Africa and black around the world gain a sense of themselves in order to hold their heads high, we don’t need the distraction of energy sapping blacks that aren’t capable of seeing the larger picture, that keep snapping out your hills when your actually fighting for them against the tyranny of a racist world.

wait, av a second look at those words u typed.. "Nigeria government must demand Ghana rescind this law as one of the conditions to opening our border to their goods"... So u belief Nigeria being a sovereign state can force Ghana another sovereign state, who attained his sovereignty even before ur country thought of starting the push for his independence to rescind such a law??..The reality is that no Ghanaian is saddened by ur so-called border closure, as a matter of fact, the GUTA commended ur government for such act which is aimed at augmenting the buoyancy of ur economy n the indigenous traders and actually called on the Ghanaian government to emulate same.

You aren't smart ...the reason I ignore you earlier. one of Nigeria bank was recently closed down for failure to meet the amount needed for recapitalization, another Nigeria bank had to inject cash from her parent bank in Nigeria for continuous buisness operation.


Ghana commercial bank alone is far bigger than Any bank operated in Ghana and it is fully a GHANAIAN bank , this exclude consolidated bank which is by far another big bank in Ghana. zenith is one of the best bank in Ghana not the richest or biggest employer. the biggest employer are the banks I made mention above with British and south Africa bank doing far well than Any Nigeria bank.


reasons for choosing Ghana wasn't just about the national language but about the working buisness enviroment. I am sure you aren't aware they are Ghanaian indigenous industry in Nigeria. go learn guy and stop your ignorance bragging online.

You probably don't realise that most of the biggest banks in Ghana are Nigerian.
Apart from stanbic ibtc and Barclay bank, and one or two, the remaining banks of note are Nigerian.

From First bank to zenith, GTB, UBA, Fidelity, Ecobank, and a host of others.
Just Google most of them if you are not sure.
And it is not just in your financial sector. Every sector in Ghana has a Nigerian footprint.

You clowns have managed to use your anglophoneness to absorb Nigerian investment without being grateful.

Anyway, it would end soon. GUTA will bring it to an end with their actions.
