   Ghana is not what you think it is, though Nigeria has got a lot of improvements to make but would Ghana have been able to manage 140 million people (plus)?with ease?

let address some  points  about  this  topic, I love nigeria,i love ghana too.That  are both home  to me.

If you are  comparing Lagos to  Accra then yes Accra wins every time,why you  ask because of  basics   Accra there  always  light,if  they are  going  to  take  light they  give  you advance notice, as  a female  you  can  walk  the  street  at anytime, get  a  cab  at  anytime. No one  is going  to  tell you can't go to  this area after  9pm and  all that nonsense. Tourism is great in Accra,so  much  to  see and  do. The  Ghana  people  can  see  how  much money  tourism brings  to  it country  and happy to invite  other nations  to their  country.

Now comparing Abuja  to Accra, Abuja wins, this  is  a Fab city, clean and  new and  is  more  welcoming  to tourism that  Lagos. it  demonstrate all the  best Nigeria  as  to offer,i  suppose  that why it the  capital city. Abuja  rocks, so  much  space and  air.

The  government  need  to do  something  with Lagos especially   as  alot  of  people  still see  it  has the capital city.

Please when was the last time you were in Ghana??? What are you really talking about. I am in Ghana now for 2 weeks for a friends wedding. On my second day here, My bag was stolen at gun point in the afternoon. At 3.20pm. Shocked  I said at gun point. I lost my contract handset, £500,and other stuff with my ID on them, my international driver,s license etc. I am noly hoping that identity theft does not happen here like it does in the UK. The other woman with me was robbed of har phone and other valuables. i heard of a car theft at 7pm 2 days ago. So your point of walking to anywhere at anytime does not come through for me.

There is a big big big water problem in Accra-are you aware??? It has gone on for like ages i hear. I can go on. My two weeks will expire on tuesday next week and off to canada i go via lagos.
As for your point on tourism, i dont know about that. My cousin lives here and complains about how prices of stuff jump every 2 weeks. Lagos is actually cheaper if you ask me.  Even if the tourism industry booms here, the people do not see the benefits. It is the simple truth. I would only like to live here in Accra cos of the light electricity issue.The traffic congestion is not like that of  Lagos, but it's getting there.

My two cents.

shapey ,I  am so sorry to hear about  your  misfortune  hope  you  are ok.

To answer  your question, I  come  to Ghana  twice a year every year for  years.  you  entitle  to your  opinion  but  you  only  been to Ghana  once?? You been unlucky in your experience, crime happens in all countries.  People say crime in Lagos is high but I have never experience it, but that does that mean there no crime??

Ghana has alot of good points and bad points. I still stand that Accra good points outweighs it bad points compare to Lagos.

I've went to Accra in 2007

If you compare it to Lagos then yeah Accra wins big time (No lie).  If you compare it to Victoria Island; i think they are in the same level but when you compare it to Abuja, Abuja Wins.
Accra is the main city in Ghana and Abuja is the main city in Nigeria.  People always tend to ignore Abuja and focus on Lagos (Yes, Lagos is one of THE WORST CITY in the freaking world) but it's getting better.
They have light none-stop. Something Nepa needs to do for Nigerians but for Criminals; i wouldn't say Ghana is a safe country; maybe the area i stayed in was not Safe.  I still had to follow the same procedure i did in Naija when i was in Ghana. 
I'll say Accra is a great city but not all Ghana is like Accra.  Just like how Abuja is a great city esepcially now that they fixed it up but when you compare Abuja to any other city in Nigeria, you wouldn't believe how better Abuja is.   I guess it depends. The part i stayed in wasn't as great as what the poster described but it was still GREAT.

This is d most olodo question i have seen on nairaland.

1. Naija can not be like Ghana cos' Naija isnt Ghana.
2. Naija can not be like Ghana cos Ghana isnt the yardstick meant for measuring success in Africa.

This didnt require deep thoughts or scientific wisdom, basic common sense can tell u why in 2mins.

You don't need to travel far to Ghana to realize that everything is organized. Simply cross the Nigerian border by foot into the Republic of Benin and It's a whole new world entirely.

Have you been to ghana?

I guess i would agree that Ghanaian election is  way more organized than Nigeria.  everyother thing isn't.
I had to go to Kumasi during fall break with a friend.  Hell i was surprised how different Kumasi is to Accra.  I still like the country but people really need to travel to those countries before talking.
When i went to Accra in 2007, i loved Accra, beautiful but 
Kumasi, God i hated that place.  Kumasi sucks, i urge everyone to visit Accra if your ever planning to visit Ghana.

Why should Ghana and Nigeria be compared. I have been to Ghana and I cant just live in the country. No matter how dull our economy could be, Nigeria trains you to be rugged is some positive things. Ghana could be okay but not financially for someone seeking greener pasture.

@medube     You are a fucking asshole for saying why cant Nigerian be like Ghana. Fool. You just travel to Ghana here. Backyard. You are saying they are nice and Honest person. come and stay or build your home here in Ghana and Witness everything. In Kumasi they ride Okada and mostly other region in Ghana slum everywhere and even 60% in Accra the capital. Wait can you use Abuja to compare Accra the capital of Ghana with crazy peoples living inside. Wide  Animal. get some sense. You and your wife are stupid. We don't want you in Nigeria. go and be a citizen of Ghana Hater. because of you I join this forum. stupid. Next time don't waste peoples time reading rubbish.
