    🇬🇭 is protecting his local industries simple. Nigerians can’t import 🇨🇳 and 🇮🇳 goods to sell them cheap in🇬🇭 and destroy our economy as well as our local manufacturing sector. If Africa needs to be self sufficient, we need to manufacture and trade our own goods.Ghanaians are thinking long term development and Nigerians are thinking quick money

    The petit trading space should still remain on the table for only Ghanaians because Ghana is a small country in population so we can’t let the giant of Africa in population like Nigeria to take over those space sorry our Government should make sure that remain on the table because we Ghanaian in abroad are coming home please thanks

      @@isadore9793 that is not necessary. They are also in Ghana. Some sell amara Ebah and other Nigeria food that Ghanaian don't sell so there is no big deal. The ecowas protocol said you can't go to Europe and buy things from there to sell in Ghana. You can only bring things from Nigeria to Ghana. That is why many of their shops are close. They don't sell made in Nigeria products. Vuju milk lacasera and other things produce in Ghana. And Ghanaian don't bring them to their market but they have Nigerians who are doing business with them. Ghanaian expect them to do the same as the rules of law in all the neighbouring countries demanding

    The $1m should stay, the Ghanaian gov should only take it off when Nigeria improves on security and stop the killings of other citizens.
    Gh can not contain Nigerians, am sorry but most are lawless.. Or better still Gh should give them a camp to settle as asylum seekers(un will even help them).

      That is the only way to identify the bad and good ones and those who have committed crimes and has run away will be caught. There will be conversation between the two countries security system to fish out the criminals who are doing unnecessary things to destroy the good people business. It is the best way to gather them to have the necessary documents and procedures to make sure you don't go against the law. Nigeria should help Ghana do that so that it can help the innocent ones

    It is sad to see that West Africans are unable to see beyond the language barrier. Both Nigeria and Ghana are surrounded by French-speaking countries. Côte d'Ivoire is a significant player in ECOWAS.

    The fact of the matter is that they are over populated of more than 200 million people so if Ghana does not put requirements on their stay what do you think it be happening in Ghana even in ten years time?. Now you think about what Ghana is turning into. Is it not turning into a Nigerian state?. And can anyone imagine how a Nigerian state looks like?. Can't you now see that Ghana is turning into a ritual killing centre which is naturally not part of our Ghanaian culture?. Come on, even now their 9 million population in Ghana is a security risk for our Ghanaian generations coming the Nigerians should go back home please!

  • @adupako1057

    This will not help Nigeria anyway because Ghanaian there don't have that opportunity there and anything produce in Nigeria can be sold in Ghana and the same way anything produced in Nigeria can be sold in Ghana but you can't go to China and bring China goods to Ghana to sell. The same way Ghanaian can not go to China and buy good to Nigeria and sell that is all. It will even strengthen our relationship more than fighting each other everyday because Nigerians are not ready to obey the laws. Too bad

      @rdokoye Yep. I've really come to see you no longer want to understand what's happening.
      Apart from the fact that it won't change for you or the majority Igbos flooding our small scale markets reserved, you've also assumed this sad cement-wall attitude in this and commenting the same rhetoric even when the conversation's moved on a bit. I've come to see most Nigerians want the status quo to remain because it suits them. Don't want to develop, industrialize or move our markets and way of doing business on. You will do alright because you have the numbers for now but a lot of you will be left behind regrettably to deal with the scraps at the bottom. The same way you've been wanting to diversify your economy away from oil since the 90s and still 80% government revenues comes from there today. Because you're making money today by working a certain way doesn't mean you'll still be doing so tomorrow. International trade needs checks and balances that help keep things fair.
      There is a need for the 5 regional market blocks on the continent to grow up, industrialize and develop our trade treaties to very fine and complex details. Like being able to monitor and control not only the types of businesses, goods and services being offered in our markets so the continent gets what it actually needs to develop and transform its societies, ever growing unemployment amongst the youth and solve its many developmental problems faster. It needs to have finer tools and mechanisms to be able control prices sometimes when it needs to because of dumping and anti-competitive behavior or over-supply which all lead to a skewing of the of markets. These costs jobs, sometimes the health and wellbeing of whole regions or countries when dealing with food and drugs while others just kill people and bring loss of livelihoods.
      In EU trade, there are strict rules for just about every product and service that gets transacted by member states. It's the most regulated trading zone on the planet. New rules get added even quicker than one can count them yearly, monthly and sometimes weekly. You really picked the wrong example to use but I'm glad you did because it's also where the rules work very well. They have a monitoring body that's in all members states and their markets (ec.europa.eu/info/food-farming-fisheries/key-policies/common-agricultural-policy/market-measures/market-measures-explained_en). They have rules that control demand and supply of every product/service and sector. And what member countries have to do when they find some business breaking a rule or being anti-competitive. The most regulated sectors are in Agriculture, Industry (manufacturing) and Fisheries I have found. In Fisheries, they have rules for how much fish can be caught and in what seas. They have designated seas for each country and even what type of fish, the sizes of what is acceptable and what is not to catch in the sea in any given season. All this to make sure there is sustainability and viability for each region/country's seas so no 'big brother' or sister nation deciding to be greedy, spoils it for everybody else. There are fines that businesses pay, or if state sponsored - governments held accountable. In Agriculture, there are stiff rules for the each member state and their produce, in storage and how long you can store the produce. Each country is allowed to protect its key stake holders (like farmers) as long as it does not distort the market (i.e over suppy or dumping practices). There are standards set for even what shapes, sizes and colors (health) of produce that are acceptable to enter the 'common market' from member state farmers.
      A German businessman cannot get up and go to the UK and sell anything he likes. Nor can a Polish businesswoman go to France and sell pots and pans, or car parts he got from China or India. There are rules on even the types of steel or metals that can be brought into the Eurozone to manufacture products. All this has been done to help keep the eurozone 'clean', safe and competitive in a world of full of cheap and heavy manufacturing from China/Asia. But also to make sure each member state, small or large, thrives and remains able to sustain jobs and livelihoods while keeping to global standards. When a state's local market suffers, maybe from some health & safety accident or loss of livelihoods from say a 'dry harvest' season or price falls from dumping by a neighboring country, each business entity is compensated or giving state funding by the EU commission to rebuild or absorb the shocks till next season and investigations launched to who did the dumping and fined accordingly and the products removed from the market.
      Currently in the Ecowas area, we don't have any protection or compensation schemes that comes from Ecowas for any businessman that looses their business or livelihood from dumping and over supply from illegal foreign imports even though we have rules that states that 'only goods manufactured in the region can be exported or sold in member states'. Ghana is actually helping bring some order and fairness into the region. It will continue to shape things in this direction through the new AfCFTA too - small states in Africa will thank us in the future. Nigeria can do so too and has done crudely through its contraband list and ad-hoc border closures. What we wont and mustn't tolerate is let unfair practices continue to happen like what Benin was doing with Asian rice to Nigeria and what Nigerian businessman/women do illegally in local markets in Ghana.
      Let's move the conversation on and help each other and the region develop. Not keep living like we are still in the stone age. Every trade deal in the world includes protections and controls to help check anti-competitive practices.

      rdokoye No one asked Nigeria to place itself next to Ghana. 2 we all under developed and don’t produced sizable finished products to even export. Thus Insignificant. Nigeria does it’s best to discourage trading and hiring ecowas goods and indigenes via policy. Bihari passed a law preventing foreigners for getting jobs “Nigerians can do “. Placing 90 items including food stuffs produced in ecowas on a banned from export list. Recently closing the border because of smuggling indefinitely and unilaterally without warning .
      On the contrary Nigeria has been a very bad neighbor in trade. This Gipc is in accordance with the norms of most countries. There’s a reason your ministers are mum after so long.
