I will rather have commerce opened to all Ghanaian RESIDENTS not just citizens.However non citizens must be strictly regulated to ensure compliance to all the laws and regulations just like they do to Ghanaians in their countries.laws must also be put in place to slow down money leaving the country just like the Americans and the British do.And finally logistical and financial support must be reserved strictly for Ghanaian citizens only.

Those who are brave without thinking your premitive lines of thinking. London that your countrymen and woman stand to take demonstration is that Kumasi or Accra? You are not ready to do anything but to seat and wait for government to put momey in your pocket. What you people are looking for, one day you will get it. Your people travel to other country even your president once in life married to a nigeria and study in UK, your gender woman study in UK, your culture minister study and work in Kenya, your energy minister study and work in UK, your minister of Industry study and work in UK and in Nigeria, your head in parliment once travel to nigeria to buy motor parts to sale. Why are some of you illitrate talk any how? Go to any western union or money gram, you will only see Ghanaian and some even sleep there but still you accuse Nigeria. Guys be wise and mind you, the reason nigerian are here is because the stable light ECG nothing more. Fuel now is 4.140 while in Nigeria is 145, if you want Nigerians to go, then bring it on. Many of the good houses in Ghana are built by Nigerians, how many are for Ghanaian or do you want to tell me there are no rich men and woman in Ghana? Nigeria are rather developing Ghana because if not, everywhere would still remain bush. Your ministers prefer to buy house in USA and London instead putting it here. Guy, be wise and talk matured. Nigeria man will not carry his property when going, it will remain here, so look for money and stop this nonsense, no wise country will do that now, even Trump is not having it easy

IGP at Oyibi police station the police are collecting bribe from the wrong people and intimidate the right owners of land who acquired the land genuinely.
Oyibi police station need overhauling and transfer from they boss thus the commander he is part of all the problems land owners are facing if care is not taken Oyibi will be in serious darkness one day and police will be the one to be blame . So am calling on the IGP to in and transfer all the police office from oyibi and warn those who will take in charge to be mindful of the past. I believe in IGP he can do it.

5A 5000 YEARS OLD SECRET JINNI FORMULA THAT UNLOCKS THE MYSTERIES OF WEALTH AND SUCCES “THE HIGH POWER JINNI MAGIC RING” A SECRET FORMULA unwritten until now, Remember the KINGS and their fabulous wealth? Even today the tomb of the KINGS yields spectacular quantities of GOLD, SILVER, and DIAMONDS AND OTHER PRECIOUS STONES. How did they ever amass these incredible riches? The ANSWER is given in this strongly HIGH POWER JINNI MAGIC RING. The wearer of this RING gets AUTOMATICALLY anything wants he in his life, for e.g. MONEY, FAME, SUCCESS, HAPPINESS, LOVE, POWER, LUCK and so on, they are all yours 17 you are wearing the HIGH POWER JINNI MAGIC RING. If you cannot see the light from where you stand perhaps you has been standing behind a pillar all this time. The appropriate time has now come for you to knock off aside the pillar which has been obstructing your success all these days and if you cannot knock off this pillar at least move out from behind it and see what all awaits you in this universe. Through the Gracious help of great GURU (SAGE) this hidden RING is brought out with a bold assert that no man has upon this world to pass away unannounced. Nobody is to bear a perpetual burden of privation and to court death as the ultimate resort beyond also suffering. This word of happiness is equally desired to be shared by all, but here are many who ping for it and in the long run fall a victim to relentless time not even able to make both the ends meet the other flourish happily in the lap of luxury and pleasure and roll on the bed of wealth. On the hold this GREAT RING after the performance of necessary ceremonies does not fall a prey to any serious malady, his life may be extended to one hundred years, fire, water and air cannot tarnish or destroy this person. He will never in any danger of calamity. Spirits, Demons, Evil of bad Luck, Evil spirits, Black magic will submit to him and never dare do any always pass their time in safety. The nine planets always smile upon them and even KINGs bear submission. This mysterious Ring is the best filler of all desire fear, Grief’s miseries etc. cannot appreciate to the door of the wearer: A person accounted with the RING may turn the council to see his opposes turn dump and loose the power of speech. It is the desire of the great GURU (SAGE) rather my behest that every person of means should hold this great RING which is permanent in stopping premature death. It is a river of vast wealth and reputation apenerial sources of fame and prosperity and the great amulet and charm of the world. Hold this Ring and make your life Glorious and great. Highly Efficacious. Life long and Durable. The cost of this power is too great but because on the special request of the world, I am charging all the devotees only a little amount of GH¢300.84.0547122212

How is the Nigerians running retail shops capital helping Ghana? Some of them has no even one Ghanaian employee. They make money and take it to their country. Travel just to go to Southern Africa. They have SADC but you can't go from eg Namibia and go Botswana and a job reserved for locals or open a business without employing de locals. So you ignorance people don't say what you are ignorant about. My father once said, it said ignorance is a disease but for him he can see ignorance is death. So all those who don't know that there's a law protecting citizens or preventing foreigners to do certain jobs are like dead people.

Mr. Osafo Marfo, I applaud you for speaking out about your concern to keep foreigners from Ghanaian retail business. It is a fact, that the enforcement aspect of the law is what is lacking. It is a shame that our politicians and law enforcement officials most of the time, turn to rather side with or protect a foreign businessman who is breaking the law instead of ensuring that a law is carried out. All that will continue to go on if our politicians, the courts and the police who are supposed to see to it that our laws are obeyed unfortunately turn to look the other way. And, unless they turn new leaf and change their corrupt behaviors no amount of speeches and entreaties won't do anything. The encroachment of our laws by foreigners that prohibit them from getting into retail businesses had been going on for far too long since Mahama administration. It is about time Nana and his administration step up and put the retail business into the hands of Ghanaians and not Chinese.

I agree with you on this one. It is pure Trumpism. Isn't it? Blaming the foreigner, immigrants for all our stupid errors and failures, huh?.
Having allowed our Politicians free range to loot us over and over again, and wrongly and crudely applying weird tweaking to Capitalism without the necessary Institutional checks and balances, here we go again finding a helpless scapegoat to blame.
It is the same old, stale, brittle cake of a policy that Osafo Marfo and his other xenophobic cohorts ill-advised Dr. Busia to implement in the late 60s and caused Nigerians to retaliate against us in the 80s that this man is re-introducing.
He has run out of any new, effective ideas to handle our modern Economy to generate sustained employment and growth. He is either most insensitive to what our Youths went through in Nigeria during the vengeful and deadly Agege repatriation exercise, or he simply is too senile and suffering from amnesia to remember.
Besides, we never saw any significant surge in our economic standing with the implementation of the Busia's Aliens Compliance Order that was a cover to deport Millions of immigrants doing productive work to add to our Economy.
Trading or Business, in general, has really never been the forte of most Ghanaians. And to think that these immigrants who have brought in their own capital to set up Businesses in the retail sector are to blame for our economic failures is as erroneous as we think calling our Democracy a "Property Owning" one adds any penny to our coffers. That tautological emphasis on property owning in our already-free Market Economy could only signal freedom to loot by the Politicians who championed that misnomer.

@G.K Berko. Please go back and read the article again. Osafo Marfo is not asking all foreigners to leave the country. I am sure he was talking about the law regarding doing business in Ghana by foreigners. He made it clear in his piece what the law states( that foreigners could only do business with a certain capital). What is wrong with foreigners following the laws of Ghana? In the UK foreigners who want to invest and do business here can only do so with a certain amount of money stipulated in their law. Even highly skilled professionals such as Lecturers and Doctors whose services are needed and who want to work in a country like the UK must meet some conditions and criteria in line with UK immigration laws. For example they must have a job offer and the salary should start at least £35,000. We can not allow every tom dick and harry in our country in the name of free market. What is wrong with placing Ghanaians first? Can you enter China illegally and do galamsey and pollute their water? Please let us be more rational than emotional in our analysis, let us put aside our tribal differences and party affiliations aside and put Ghana first. Let us put our country first after all that is all we have. Thank You.

Ecowas is not a state,poor boy! And not even a confederation. Jungle boy! Dont buy Mahama's ancient illusions.Ghana is for ghanaians ,until it is decided otherwise by Ecowas cooperation.
ecowas has nothing to do with it. that is the law. this was made by pialiament and for a reason
Africans are not foreigners
If you think an African is not a foreigner in Africa, try to vote in South Africa or for that matter in Mali! Nonsense. You always run away from the truth. If you have an idea how Ghanaians are treated in China you will hate ...

Either you are stupid or ignorant of the benefits that accrued Ghanaians via the Alien Compliance Order of 1970. additionally, you may be younger and did not know the what actually the issues were in that era.
SHOULD GHANAIANS BE 2ND CLASS IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY??? YORI IS SIMPLY A TOGOLESE EXPLOIT LIKE ADAMS WHO CHANGE THEIR NAMES FOR APPOINTMENTS IN GHANA.
other countries in d sub regon also have d same law but can neva apply try it and u'll see d consequence.u're mouth like frog
But does the Locals have the capacity to do the same business, lack of I dears is a sickness, if foreigners leave the retail business they will also go with their capital, Mr Minister, be innovative
None of your business as a foreigner to be asking whether locals have capacity to do any business. Just respect our laws, or you'll be dealt with according to the law.
For an educated guy, Osafo Marfo sure dissapoints. You can need to speak like an educated guy not like some bushman
He is a bush man. To think that this man was once our finance minister -- unbelievable.
This is not the way to put this. This man is really uncouth.
Another Donald trump in e making.why is this man so racist and tribalistic like that?
It says foreigners shall not engage in retail trade. Simple. If you want to change it go to parliament.
It is very clear. because they are enjoying many advantages over us in our own mother country
Who is this man blaming foreigners. Does this man has the money to buy all the foreign businesses before the throw them out. This foreigners have invested their money, time and paying taxes. So for this man to come out with i ...

it is a good idea but care must be taken when enforcing it.ghanaians also do retail business outside ghana

Kick tham now,ECOWAS is their but ECOWAS citizens are still not allowed to drive a taxi
Oooh no, is not a good idea please.
You are too old with old ideas,that makes me to remember Busias regime which brought economical disaster. Please not again.

Another stupidity like that of busia
SAME BUSIA FIASCO THAT GOT US BROKE FOR A LONG TIME IS COMING BACK...ANYTHING LEARNED?
TOGOLESE WILL BRING THEIR KIDS ALL OVER GHANA SCHOOLS FOR FREE SHS TO SABOTAGE THE IDEA
will you happy if Ghanaians are treated the same way in other country? There are thousands if not millions of Ghanaians who are also doing small-scale trading in other countries.
Osarfo Marfo has impressed me for once. Now they must quickly implement it without fear of favour.
Who should enforce the law ? You ministers and senior minister are supposed to enforce this law because the police and others are under your command.
Now the white people are even doing house to house sales ? Come to Volta region and u will be amazed with this practice ! Wake up Ghana !
