Who the hell these "XENOPHOBIC GHANAIANS" think they are? If President Mahama calls for closer ties with Nigeria, he knew the benefits Ghana will derives from such relationships. However, Nigeria can stands tall in committee of Nations without Ghana. Therefore, Mr. demented Ahoofe, keep your self important to your self and your fellow moronic Ghanaians.
Warning: IGNORES NIGERIA'S IMPORTANCE AT YOUR OWN PERIL.

Lagos economy rated above Ghana, UK - Fashola
Wednesday, March 6, 2013
by Sesan Olufowobi

Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola has said the economy of the state is rated above Ghana and the United Kingdom. He also said his administration is currently executing about 1,966 projects across the state.

He said the projects would boost government's plan to transform the state and turn it into "Africa's modern" mega city.

The governor said this on Tuesday during the inspection of ongoing projects in Lekki and Victoria Island in Lagos.

Fashola argued that the yardstick for measuring good governance could only be done by those who know, adding that the economy of Lagos is now rated ahead of Ghana and the United Kingdom.

The governor said, "Currently, the Lagos State economy is being upgraded from stable to positive, that's good governance, you don't need any campaign to do that."

Fashola said, "Currently we are executing about 1,966 projects across the state. The projects we have visited really are the ones that have problems. We have been going round to see what the problems are instead of just reading reports.

"Now we are having a feel of the challenges and see whose ministry is responsible and what we can do to ensure that the ministries and contractors are communicating. These inspections are to ensure that we get many of those projects completed."

Fashola insisted that on completion, the projects would further endear the Action Congress of Nigeria to the electorate.

He said the party would beat the opposition with a wide margin during the 2015 general elections in the state.

He assured the residents that the Ikoyi-Lekki Link Bridge would soon be inaugurated, saying the bridge required finishing work and toll plaza.

The governor, who also flayed the Minister of Information, Mr. Labaran Maku's assertion that the ongoing national good governance tour was muted at the Governors' Forum, said it did not mean all the governors supported the initiative.

He said, "The question I asked then was of what purpose is the tour? Do the people of Nigeria need a tour to know that they are being well governed? What is the tour supposed to achieve? Are they resolving problems at project sites? Where are their projects? What is the value of tour when you can't implement a budget? I can go on tour of projects because my budget performed 89 per cent last year.

"I am not on a good governance tour. I am on a project inspection tour trying to solve problems at project sites."

I AM A GHANAIAN AND I HAVE NEVER LIKED THE FACT THAT FOREGHNERS ARE FLOODING THE NATION. BUT I WILL PREFER PEOPLE TO TALK ABOUT THE CHINESE AND THE LEBANESE THE MOST BECAUSE MOST OF THESE PEOPLE HAVE AIDS AND HAVE HUGE RECORD OF CHILD MOLESTING. THEY NEED TO BE KICKED OUT SOON BEFORE THINGS GET OUT OF HANDS. AS FOR THE NIGERIANS, GETTING RID OF THEM IS NO BIGGY OF A DEAL.

Trade with Iran means more weapons on the streets of Ghana. That's what Iran does best. Does Mahama has Ghana at heart?

Another stupid brainwahed idiot, jut like the frustrated akyem ape. What iran has done is to provide a hospital in Accra for poor ghanaians, over a hundred ambulances throughout the country, and irrigation technologies for poor farmers. And they did all these good deeds during your Narcotic Peddlers Party's (NPP) time. Fuck off with your small brains! Ghana needs to go forward and be like Singapore, Korea, Iran, malaysia,etc. Away with your slave mentality! Ghana must be truly independent like Iran!

FOR FIVE YEARS, THEY HAVE NOT EVEN BEEN ABLE TO FINISH NSAWAM SUHUM PIECE OF ROAD STARTED BY K4, THINKING THEY ARE HURTING ASHANTIS. THEY DON'T KNOW THAT THEY ARE RATHER EXPOSING THEMSELVES TO THE OUTSIDE WORLD.YOU LURED BURKINA FASO TO USE TEMA HARBOUR AND AFTER CLEARING THEIR GOODS FROM THE HARBOUR, LOOK AT THE TYPE OF ROADS THEY TRAVEL ON. COUNT THE # OF TRUCKS BURKINA FASO HAS LOST BETWEEN NSAWAM AND SUHUM THROUGH ACCIDENTS DUE TO THIS IMPASSABLE ROAD. THE TRUCKS SPEND NOT LESS THAN 4 HOURS FROM NSAWAM TO SUHUM. WHAT A SHAME. WHERE IS THE MONEY GOVT EARNS FROM BURKINA FASO GOVT AND BUSINESSMEN WHO USE TEMA HARBOUR? DOES THIS SPEAK WELL OF GHANA? #2 ALL TOURISTS WHO VISIT GHANA, AFTER VISITING ELMINA CASTLE PLY ON THIS ROAD TO KUMASI AND FURTHER TO THE NORTH. WHAT STORY WOULD THESE TOURISTS TELL ABOUT GHANA, AND OUR ROADS WHEN THEY GO BACK HOME? DON'T YOU THINK THEY WILL AGREE WITH ANY ONE WHO ACCUSES THE GOVT AS BEING CORRUPT AND INEFFECTIVE. DOESN'T NDC GOVT KNOW THAT THE ROAD IS ALSO USED BY OTHER GHANAIANS WHO ARE NOT ASHANTIS? SOME GHANAIANS FROM EASTERN REGION.BRONG AHAFO,WESTERN, NORTHERN REGION, UPPER REGION, SOME TRADERS AND BUSSINESSMEN ALSO USE THE ROAD? NOW, WITH IMPROVEMENT IN AIR TRANSPORT MOST PEOPLE WHO VISIT ACCRA FROM ASHANTI REGION TRAVEL BY AIR.A FEAT NO OTHER REGION IN THE COUNTRY CAN MATCH.WE HAVE PLANES LINKING THE NORTH, BUT ASK ME HOW MANY NORTHNERS CAN AFFORD IHE COST TO FLY. YOU SEE THAT MOST OF THE PASSENGERS ARE AKANS WHO FLY TO THE NORTH TO DO BUSSINESS.SO THE NDC GOVERNMENT SHOULD STOP THINKING IT IS HURTING ASHANTIS. IT IS HURTING OTHER TRIBES THE MORE. THE GOVERNMENT SHOUD RATHER KNOW THAT IT IS HURTING OTHER GHANAIANS ALSO AS WELL AS EXPOSING ITSELF.IT IS EXPOSING ITS CORRUPT,INEFFECTIVE,AND ITS MALPRACTICES TO THE OUTSIDE WORLD AS WELL.

our dear confused pepeni has issues and the truth so mixed up in his mind he doesnt know his left from his right. He calls the Europen union development partners , this very same group that spends hundreds of billions on failed states with no potential or natural resources and yet can not even drop 20 billion at the bank of Ghana, but are rather jealous the chinese are able to string along Ghana and they are not sending the country on a another jolly ride themselves. Instead of having chief bullshitter fifi kwetey receive their delegation on his behalf he humiliates us and the institution of the presidency by giving them the time of day. He is not aware his true partners in thick and thin , good or bad are the PEOPLE of Ghana and that the waache seller on the street corner contributes more to the economy than all these foreign messengers put together as they for every dollar they give will eventual extract 10,000 or more. his elementary school mathematics in this regard is nonexistent. He should be spending his time finding out why the civil service is not being productive or approving projects that are profitable instead of spending valuable time on these useless evil motivated scum of the earth foreigners who only wish the downfall and further suffering of the people .
