Why A Drop In Inflation Does Not Necessarily Mean A Drop In Prices Of Commodities

July 17, 2019

Unconfirmed reports (we are yet to confirm) suggest the United States is preparing for post-election crisis in Nigeria should things turn out bad after the elections. According to the Nation Newspaper the United States seems to have gone a step further by sending hundreds of marines to neighbouring Ghana.

The paper says an Aviation source in Accra, the Ghanaian capital, informed them that two Hercules C-130 transport planes landed at theKotoka Airport last week, bearing “at leat three helicopters”. Here is an excerpt of the article

“There are well over 200 marines,” the source, who pleaded not to be named because of what he described as the sensitivity of the matter, said. “They are camped at the airport,” he added.

The helicopters are believed to be meant for the quick evacuation of Americans in Nigeria –  in the event of violence.

It was not immediately clear yesterday where the marines and equipment may have been moved from. The United States has military bases in Europe.

The source also said two United States Navy ships had been sighted off the coast of Takoradi, Ghana. A Ghana Defence source said one of the ships is equipped with medical facilities.

“More marines are expected,” he said, also pleading not to be named because, according to him, he is not allowed to talk to the media.

“It is not unusual for the United States or any other country to do this because they have to protect their people,” the source said.

Ghanaians have noticed the presence of the marines. The popular thinking is that they are in the country to train the military.

“Their mission is to move into Nigeria swiftly, should there be any need to do so,” the source said.
