I don't know what Ghana is waiting for... Ghana should of joined long before Nigeria, ecowas is a. Joke. Nana was a joke, all he cared about was sucking up to the Western D*ck like all older time African presidents, they never learned their lesson always thinking that white man or non black way was always the best, the brainwashed mentality. Hurry and join BRICS, we need the partnerships. Not just regional but world wide... Japan is smaller than China but for decades their economy was one of the largest in the world and almost over took the US in the 80s, it's not about size I'ts about innovation.

Stupid comment! Is those who created Brics are they blacks, or Japan you mentioned is amongst the Brics? Tell your leaders to spend wisely and put right people at the right places and stop foolish political appointment. How can you appointed Sammy Gyamfi, a 35 year old to head that kind big organisation, just because he can shout nonsense on tv

A fast developing under brics Nigeria is good for Africa/ecowas. No need to panick. Ghana does not fit into the brics agenda- we are too small and have no political geopolitical significance bye and large. Let’s stay our lane , have a good constitution stop bad leadership and corruption and we shall reach far irrespective of any other country. Our main problem is that we are not upright people- evidence of it is this past useless Akuffo addo governance and the pillaging he presided on.

You journalists must stop this inferiority complex and be bold to detach this syndrone of seeing nigeria as economic backbone in west africa. That country is one of the worst economies in GDP per capita. Your media is been used to project themselves as economic powers whiles they keep playing down and keep mute of anything Ghana that projects Ghana over nigeria. Just go to their media outlets and see how they monopolize their stories in a dirextion that only project nigeria. Must we always remain shallow minded and low in IQ.

What do you want? That we join BRICS because Nigeria has joined? You need to be in lunatic asylum.

We are Ghana, and we're not joining BRICS.

@logical, it seems you are off to the current realities. A country with a population of over 230M, growth rate of 3.2%, Over 35b barrel oil reserve? And you think BRICS members are daft. They know with their population and consumption rates they are viable. Pls don't put sentiment in this. They are filled with human capital too. They world is not waiting for anybody ooh. Just wait, Nigeria is rebasing their economy structure, by the end of this month there's going to be an announcement of a new GDP that will surpass every African countries. And you think the countries are not watching? Pls verify, don't be myopic in thinking

The problem with Ghanaian leaders is that, they are too dumb and know how to package Ghana as a powerful country. We allow nigeria to deposite their overpulation burden on us in the name of ecowas, yet still this same nigeria will turn back and close borders, and disregard ecowas for selfish interest. Look at how foolish we were as a country to give Nigeria president Tinubu all the platforn during the swearing in of president Mahama to address the whole world and creating the impression as if he rules over Ghana. He spoke as if he influences the governance of Ghana just to sweep away every opportunity in the direction of Nigeria. Our Ghanaian leaders are not smart enough to know about diplomatic politics that makes a country more powerful for such opportunities. We must stop being exploted in the name of ecowas and that brotherhood thing mostly used by nigerians just to deceive us. How are we brothers we a country that is soo selfish and want everything for themselves. Ghanaian leaders must start training their brains to be high in IQ, and stop being deceived with this ecowas thing...

Why are we bordered? Ghana is great, nigeria is also great. The greatness of one does not impede the other. Work on yourself. Ego goes nowhere in the face of reality

If Ethiopia and Nigeria, with large populations, can join BRICS but Ghana, with a small population with rich mineral resources, cannot come near. Then, there is something wrong with the politicians. NPP and NDC Why?

The biggest mistake they made is allowing this hypocrite country Nigeria to join Bric's!! Nigeria is the cause ECOWAS is not running as it most,because Nigeria is trying to hold the monopoly in their hands and to give orders for West Africa...All those who think Nigeria is the perfect country to support economic growth in West Africa are just dreaming ..Nigeria is trying hard to keep all those other countries below his wings,which make sense looking at the population and size of Nigeria if the world forget them it will be a condemmed COUNTRY. Never EVER trust Nigerians political strategies...they just are greedy and looking for their own benefit
