@that otumfour ( oh boy make una ear name!!) you havent told us what your president came to do in Nigeria two weeks ago[s]with a pretence courtesy call! hmmm something tells me , he came to beg for money as usual!

angrynaija:

ghana is so much more better than nigeria. more personal security in ghana, less armed robbery in ghana, virtually no kidnappings in ghana, far better governance in ghana, fewer cases of government officials stealing the people's money in ghana, less 419 by ghanaians at home or abroad, far more cases of drug trafficking abroad - if you don't believe, look at the number of nigerians in asian prisons namely singapore, thailand, south korea, etc, etc, and because of the 419 issue and drug trafficking abroad, nigerians are more a disgrace than ghanaians all over the world. people, including fellow africans are more suspicious of nigerians abroad.



it is very clear, why did obama choose to visit ghana over nigeria?

sorry but that is ignorance to the highest order, american presidents visit ghana because of the new found oil

just like they use to visit nigeria when we just found oil

is in it obvious

Omo_Tier1:

Answer to your post in bold: OBAMA did not want to be seen as legitimizing the Presidency of the then President 'cos of the controversy that trailed that election. Glad He visited Ghana and not Nigeria 'cos at the end, we had the last laugh as Nigeria's President what invited to the white house for a more rewarding  (as far as Nigeria and Nigerians are concerned) economic talks

@rhymz:

rhymz, my bro, i perfectly understand where you are coming from, however,  i think your are in denial. while we are on the topic of relating nigeria's issues to ghana and; whether or not ghana is better--- and not issues pertaining to the u.s. let me remind you again that nigeria's issues as a country are on a scale that singularly supercedes those of ghana or any other west african country. do we not have issues with corruption by government officials on a scale that truly boggles the mind? do we not have serious issues with persistent kidnappings? do we not have major issues with 419 throughout the world? which other african country is known around the world with these issues that even comes close on the scale that they exist with nigeria? i know we feel shameful when nigeria is talked about in a derisive manner, but being in denial will not help us. as you well know, being probably the most educated, and endowed with tons of natural resources, nigeria has the potential to really BE the 'giant of africa' as opposed to simply laying claim to the title by virtue of our population. and there in lies the problem---- we are so full of a thing called foolish pride.

The problem I have with many Nigerians like angrynaija and powerdude is that most of the times you premise your very childish criticisms on petty and useless whinnings and nothing of substance.
No country in the world does not have its own share of societal ills, and it becomes worse when there is no good leadership. A lot of Nigerians are into scamming, identity theft, corruption etc., we don't deny that but don't make it sound like that is all there is to Nigeria. A lot of Nigerians are making efforts to distinguish themselves in a positive light in many spheres that are hardly gej mentioned, but when it comes whinning and complaining, you see some very ill-informed citizens come in packs to air their ignorance and misplaced anger.
I always tell Nigerians that whine all the time that it will take more than just whinning and ill-informed arm-chair criticisms to make Nigeria what you want, they will have to start first by being patriotic to the pursuit of a better Nigeria. And that is where Ghana beats us hands down. You will never hear a Ghanaian make very dumb statements about the societal ills of Ghana like a lot of Nigerians do all the time or you lots think they don't have their own share of scammers and co? Yet they choose to highlight the positive side of Ghana which is what every outsider hears or knows about Ghana first hand.
How many times do you lot hear of Bernad L Madoff's financial scam which till date is the biggest financial scam world over, add all Nigerian scammers put together the enormity of Madoff's scam will still topple them over. Yet we don't see Americans using that as an excuse to show indepence of opinions or as they always put it, "being liberally minded".
Ghana is a great country in its own right and even Nigerians recognize that as is seen in the way we patronize their economy, thank God for them because a successful Ghana will be a bolster to every western African country. My problem most of the times with them is the way they yield to the temptation of putting Ghana up to make Nigeria look silly or sth. Whether any African country likes it or not Nigeria still plays the biggest role in African politics and development, that is where the phrase "Giant of Africa" came from and not entirely because of her population. I always tell my African brothers that if you have committed so much to the peace and stability of the African continent like Nigeria has done, it will be so hard not to brag about it. Mohammed Ali once said if you have got his height, strength, knowledge, fame and reach, it will be so hard to be humble about yourself. Just as Nigeria has a lot of things to be ashamed of, likewise, there a million things to be proud of. If any Nigerian must criticize, it should be done constructively and from an informed standpoint, enough of all these childish temper tantrums, if Nigeria is a beast then you are a beast as well cos a beast begets a beast.

@ angrynaija

Do honestly believe all this is happening JUST in Nigeria? 
Seriously?  Do you know the names of African nations listed by FBI as countries to look out for especially for 419? Ghana, Nigeria, Cote D'ivoire, Senegal, Burkina Faso and other nation in Africa.  Nigeria is know for it because Nigeria made it international (unfortunately), the same way Italians are known for mobs but they aren't the only ones involved in it.  There's the Russian mob, Chinese mob and co.
The same way Cubans are known for drug dealing but they aren't the only ones involved with it.
Do honestly believe Nigeria is the only country doing 419?
Do you know the list of corruption index included for Africa? Ethiopia, Tanzania, Gabon and co have less corruption than Nigeria. 
Do honestly believe those countries are doing better than Nigeria?
Angola has a higher corruption that Nigeria yet that nation economy is skyrocketing.  There isn't any African country doing better than Angola right now.
Egypt has lower corruption index, higher crime rate than Ghana and i know for sure Ghana, Nigeria or anyother sub-Saharan African country is not doing better than Egypt
I seriously do not think any of you guys research some stuff. 
I don't deny Nigeria is terribly in some ways and so is every nation in Africa but dude research your nation first or at least research other nations first before comparing.
Like i said before, i think Nigeria just love uplifting stuff just because it's not in Nigeria.

GHANA: Nigeria,you are big for nothing and daft.

NIGERIA: Ghana,you are too small for me and too dumb.

GHANA: If you are that smart Nigeria,tell me what is 1 + 1 ?

NIGERIA: Foolish Ghana,is the answer not 11?

GHANA: You are lucky,i though you were going to miss it.


, these are my exact my thoughts on this thread!!!

No wonder Africa is at such a slow pace.
