This is what the Nigerians do in the world world. They behave as if they own every where in the world. Evil generation. They should be sacked. They be operating against the rules.

The retail sector is legally preserved for Ghanaians; foreigners are not permitted to engage in the retail business. That's what the Nigerian shop owner is failing to know/understand. I will not blame him entirely because some Ghanaians allow the illegality to go on. Who rented the place to him?

So he has that entitlement to do illegal business in Ghana that was fought for and defended by our ancestors with their blood ? These people have that stupid sense of entitlement and we must close all their shops and deport them. No Ghanaian can do that in Nigeria, they will even kill you .
The GUTA leader looks too soft to me because he shouldn’t have wasted time to argue with this Nigerian at all . Just go ahead and lock all their shops . That’s it .Just enforce the law man.

if there was no space or opportunity he wouldnt have been there,the ghanaians are most likely not crying because of lack of space like they would like us to think,but most likely because of pricing which they call competition

Close the foreign shops. We can't do that in Lagos with such a defense. Ghanaian first. Politicians should be very careful. The protocols don't help us.

Ghanaians retailers are always afraid of competitors. Without competition there is no general economic gains. If other west Africans replicate this kind of behaviour, it will force Ghanaians living in other countries to relocate back to Ghana and that will be dangerous for the Ghanaian economy. About 7 million Ghanaians live in other part of West Africa and almost half of the number live in Nigeria.

Every body engaged in legitimate business in the country regardless of their nationality must be allowed to do so . If one goes through the required procedures to enter into a legitimate business they should be allowed to operate. If Ghana wants a grow its economy, it can deprive others from their operations.

When there aren't enough clients for goods and services, then you see this kind of fights over control of the market. In a situation like this what you need is to boost the demand and purchasing power of the clients so they can purchase from different sources of their choice and then this situation will not arise as every trader will get their fair share of the market.

When did an association become and law enforcement agent? This is unlawful. You can't enforce a law unlawfully. They should have handed the issues over to the police to do that while their leaders are with them. Secondly why are they targeting only Nigerians when there are lots of Asians engaged in retail all over the country? Are the laws of Ghana selective or Ghanaians just hate the fact that the Nigerian is being strategic? Is Melcom and the Palace malls and other malls not doing retailing? Or the laws apply only to spare parts? These Spare parts dealers knows very well that when the prices of spare parts drop significantly it will largely affect cost of transportation which will in turn affect the cost of living and eventually give the government of the day a good name so all of a sudden, they are up in arms, but it is a failed attempt. Go and learn how to be strategic and stop being petty.
