Ghana Is Too Poor To Be Called A Country!! by Fetnet: 1:20pm On Sep 04, 2014 |
Ghana learnt it lesson during the 1980s and 1970s when its citizens were a disgrace all over west Africa and it economy was a basket case and it had many numerious military coup and military Government that wiped out its leadership and almost half of Ghana left for other countries like Nigeria, Ivory coast, Togo etc. Ghana has been able to be making progress in democracy and good governanc in the last 10 years but please Ghana should not jubilate too much because when Ghana is surrounded by almost 300 million people and other countries and people in unstable region in West Africa. Things can really go wrong in a minute. It is really for Ghana interest and Ghana should work for it in West Africa like President Akufor is doing in Nigeria now to help and Kofi Anan is doing in Ivory coast now, and Ghana has to use its diplomatic effort to help secure peace in West Africa because if not Ghana can go down in a minute. South Africa is going through the same thing thinking that poor and unstable people will not come. it is now tearing south Africa with peopel from Zimbabwe, Angola, Ruwanda, Somalia, Ethiopia and immigration laws cannot stop too many refugees. Remeber Ivory coast claim to be stable and surrounded by 300 million unstable nations and what happend and Ivory coast was alone in a bubble enjoying its small wealth, and what happended Refugees and problems from its neigbhours destroyes it, same with liberia, same sierra leaone, same with Kenya, Same with Zimbabwe, Same with Uganda, Same with congo, Same with Ruwanda So it is for Ghana to use its success by talking and engagement to help other wise 300 million unstable and mostly poor people will destroy Ghana no matter your immigration policy. Remember liberia is around the corner, ivory coast is around the corner, Nigeria is a stone throw, Niger, Chad, Burkina faso, Guinea. Finally,Ghana is the 3rd larges economy in West Africa and by many miles far from Nigeria economy and ivory coast the second largest After Nigeria . Ghana has a population of only 22 million people with GDP worth a country (Ghanas total worth) only 30 billion dollars.Ghana is a very poor country Ivory coast 2nd largest economy in West Afrcia with a population of 25 million people with GDP(ivory coast total worth) worth of 35 Billion dollars. Very poor country. Nigeria with a population of almost 170 million people has a GDP (total Worth of Nigeria) is almost 400 billion dolars (four hundred billion dolllars). second largest economy in Africa After South Africa and it has the population and potential to be bigger and double its economy in a minute if well manged to world standard The are seven States in Nigeria that are richer than Ghana and Ivory coast Nigeria 6 region each is richer than Ghana and ivory coast combined Look the are too many rich people and many dollars billionaires in Nigeria that have the money and resources to be war lords and cause havoc and creat their own private army and take over many countries in West Africa. Just imagine the havoc war lord Charles Taylor of Liberia and Konteh of Sierra leane cause with little money and few men few years ago. Lets pray that Nigeria does not have war otherwise everybody in West Africa is toast and in trouble because refugees from Nigeria will overwhelm every boddy. Ghana will get 50 million Nigerians in one month and Ghana will be toast and you cannot control that amount of people and they will head to Ghana and i assure you, another 30 million will head to Cameroon, and another 20 will head to Togo, another 20 will head to Benin Republic etc and no amount of force will stop them, because many of them will have money too fight and do all kind of thing and cause problems. So Ghana with its stablitity needs to work with Nigeria to make West Africa stable, because Nigeria problem is also Ghana problem so dont jubilate. http://www.modernghana.com/news/325853/1/ghana-best-in-the-region-but-ghana-too-poor-and-no.html ; ; 1 Like

Am a Nigerian, but if we keep Ghana and Nigeria, I will choose Ghanatell them. most of them are too dumb to see beyond their noses! how can any sane person compare Ghana with nigeria? Ghana provides free meals to its school going children, as well as uniforms. As a Ghanaian, i can sleep with my two eyes closed. how many in that accursed country can say that? Life expectancy is 64 in Ghana, compared with 52 in nigeria 70% of Ghanaians have electrcity. compare that with 120 million nigerians without electricity youth unemployment is 90% in Nigeria, compared with 25% in Ghana why do you think we don't have boko haram, militants etc in Ghana? heard the immigration service in your country wanted to employ 10 people and more than one million hungry people turned up for the interviews have you seen those Lagos state construction workers killing themselves over Fashola's leftover fanta? funny people funny country 4 Likes |

You can't just help but laugh at the naivety and stvupidity of some nigerians. where did you get the idea from that having the largest GDP translates into being the richest country in Africa? Wealth is measured beyind a mere GDP,huh? Why do you think a country like Norway is adjudged the richest country in the world? Is it that Norway has the largest GDP? The wealth of a nation is measured by the well-being of its citizens, using parameters such as life expectancy, access to potable water, education, health care, food etc etc after all the citizens of a country are its greatest asset, not oil not flashy cars, certainly not gele and lace! MUMU-in-Chief! The largest GDP and all sh1t! Let me break thing down to your level, mor0ns GDP is the aggregate of the value of goods and services produced within a specific jurisdiction. So in the case of MUMUgeria, revenues from oil drives your GDP. So with high oil prices, your country’s GDP will naturally rise, even without you guys lifting a finger! The the reality of your so-called large GDP is junk! You know how things are with oil revenues in your sh1thole,right? Your sh1thole is one of the world's most corrupt nations,huh? Answer yes sir,dog. By the time Goodluck Jonathan, his ape-looking wife, IBB take their share of the so called large GDP; OBJ will remove his own; Abdulsalami Abubakar will take his cut; Atiku and Tinubu will take their share, Danjuma will collect his own, even Buhari go collect na; your thieving governors and their officials will take their share, the remainder of your GDP is nothing to write home about! MUMu by the time the leftover of your so-called large GDP is shared among the rest of you 200 suffering masses, apes like you won’t even see a kobo Why do you think its difficult to provide water, electricity, health care, jobs etc etc in your sh1thole? 4 Likes

This OP is too slow to be called a human being How can you say Ghana is too poor to be called a country when the article you posted says "GHANA BEST IN THE REGION". What does that make nigeria then? "NIGERIA TOO POOR TO BE CALLED A TOWN"? It's obvious you are one of the Ghana haters, but you are also too du.mb to read between the lines. BTW, in the land of the blind, the one-eyed-man is always the king ... So Ghana is not perfect, but as the writer says "Ghana best in the region" 4 Likes |

"it has the population and potential to be bigger and double its economy in a minute if well manged to world standard" this is my favourite part of the article refering to nigeria. we should stop looking at other countries around us we should look inwards and try to move our country to greater heights. and when we get to those heights other countries will have no option but to look up and be amazed by our achievements NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT MY NIGERIA. NIGERIA IS GREAT, WILL BE GREATER AND SHALL CONTINUE TO REMAIN GREAT!!! |
