There are only 30 million people in Ghana. And the population of Igbos is around 40 million. That's enough people for a functional country.

Kenya is only 52 million sef..... I don't know why Nigeria is broken yet.

That's the more reason they should let Igbos go their way

South Africa is only 58 million people compared to the Hausa population (future Awera Republic) which boasts 55 million and is growing rapidly. Everybody has enough people to form powerful countries. Break up Nigeria.

Hahaha....$94m is not "just" in Ghanaian cedi. Ghana re-denominated by knocking off a few zeros just few years ago and the new cedi has been devalued by several times such that new cedi is an equivalent of about 60,000 old cedi. Yet we have barely devalued the naira where Ghana has hyper-devalued old cedi to worth almost 100K old cedi to 1 new cedi! God bless the late President Yardua for stopping that nonsense being proposed then by then CBN governor, Prof Soludo. Only God knows where naira would have been now.
That country called Ghana is far behind put putting up so much PR including ad on CNN. It was not even among the top 5 foreign investment destinations in Africa despite having a nascent oil industry.
We may have our issues but Ghana with such little population is even behind Lagos in terms of investment and GDP.visit www.freestuffsng.com for latest freestuffs in Nigeria. God bless Nigeria.

This is one ugly, ridiculous and aimless project, more like an ego project than a serious, functional, and practical project.

Even Gnaduje's 3 level interchange in Kano looks better, more functional and even better aesthetics and eye please than this odious monstrosity.

I can't believe they wasted N35 Billion on this overpriced rubbish.

Aconomist was sexually abused as a child, probably by one of his parents in Nigeria.

That is why he hates his background and heritage.

He's in the US now, and according to him he ''hates Nigerians'' (his exact words).

He exhibits all the signs of child abuse.

As far as he is concerned, Syria, Somalia, Afghanistan and Iraq are all ''better than Nigeria''.

Don't ask him to spend a day in those countries though. He'll flee for his life same day.

Good evening ma. Please is $94m "just " in Ghanaian cedi as stated by the OP.
That's a huge drain on Ghana and I am aware that Ghana ran into serious Fx scarcity some months ago that it has to go for a loan from IMF to meet serious fx crisis.
My point is to correct the impression that $94m is just. It is not just but if you think otherwise, please feel free to explain. I am willing to learn from the perspective I hope you will offer.visit www.freestuffsng.com for latest freestuffs in Nigeria. God bless Nigeria.

Now I get you, but I think the point the op was trying to make is the extreme increase of construction costs in Nigeria.. But you dabbling in to economics made it seem you wanted to downplay the comparison

Stop talking rubbish.

President Nana Akuffo Ado probably got a really good concessionary deal, and the low cost was an anomaly EVEN IN GHANA, as shown by this news:

https://www.theghanareport.com/akufo-addo-doing-4-interchanges-at-the-cost-of-one-mahama-interchange-bawumia/

Vice-President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has revealed the government has done more infrastructural projects with less money, unlike the previous Mahama administration.

At another town hall meeting Tuesday, he pointed out that the government is constructing four interchanges at nearly the same cost of one done by Mahama who is seeking a comeback to power.

Dr Bawumia mentioned the Tema, Pokuase and Obetsebi Lamptey interchanges in the Greater Accra Region and Tamale in the Northern region, all at a total cost of $289million.

But the Kwame Nkrumah Interchange in Accra alone was constructed at $260million, he compared.

“I would just leave that for you to ponder,” he said, suggesting his government has been more prudent than the NDC when it was in power.


..........


So don't be stupid by using a single UNUSUAL project to elevate Ghana to heaven.

Please stop misinforming and peddling fake news sir. Nigeria is in the top 5 FDI for 2020 which is the latest report.

Ghana is not even in the top FDI destinations in Africa yet none of these top countries pay CNN to advertise sir.
