... and while we wait patiently, our leaders are pulling strings for a... [size=18pt]Massive Solar Energy Project In Ghana[/size] A UK firm has announced a plan to build what it claims is the biggest photovoltaic (PV) solar power plant in Africa. The Nzema project, based in Ghana will be able to provide electricity to more than 100,000 homes. Construction work on the $400 million (£248 million) plant is due to start within 12 months. The developers say that they are optimistic that finance for the project will be confirmed within six months. The initiative is being developed by Blue Energy, a UK-based renewable energy investment company. Dozens of solar projects have been announced across Africa in recent years but few have been on this ambitious scale, says industry analyst Ash Sharma at IMS Research. He says the 155 megawatt plant will increase Ghana’s generation capacity by six per cent. “It is the biggest single project that’s going ahead at the moment.” He told BBC news. “It is not the biggest in the world, but if it goes ahead, it will be the biggest in Africa.” He says that a key element in helping the project go ahead has been Ghana’s renewable energy law under which the plant has been awarded a feed-in tariff for 20 years. These are premium prices, guaranteed for the working life of the site. Project director Douglas Coleman, from Mere Power Nzema Ltd, who will build the plant, told BBC News that it was “fully cooked” in planning terms. “The project has land, it has planning consent, it has a generating license, and it has received a feed-in-tariff,” he said, it is the right plant in the right place at the right time.” He was confident that the finance needed to build the plant could be raised in the next six months. The company behind the scheme is majority owned and funded by members of the Stadium Group, a large European private asset and development company with £2.5bn under management. Ash Sharma believes that the backing of this firm plus the feed-in tariff makes the idea viable. “One of the biggest stumbling blocks has been overcome and the financing looks as it it could be in a good position to succeed, I would say.” http://www.bbc.co.uk/indonesia/bahasa_inggris/2012/12/121204_dwi_ghana_scout.shtml http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-20599878 |

Rossikk: Ghana president 'apologises' for power cuts!!It's all temporary my friend... all TEM-PO-RA-RY!! Just call it a growing pain that will soon be history, especially with our huge natural gas reserves soon to go online. At least we are "groaning" and complaining because, unlike Nigerians, we're not used to such hardships. |

Shaw007: LmfaOoo,Ghana man . . .made my day,dat is some funnY sh*itIt's funny to you because it's true! A lot of Nigerian criminals used to operate with Ghana passports. I'm not so sure about now due to passports going biometric. On several occasions, Ghana embassy officials would be summoned to identify these people in prison only to find they can't speak a single Ghanaian language, but could speak English with heavy Nigerian accent..lol . Nigerians also used to acquire Ghana passports to travel back to the US after being deported. |

| Sports › Mario Balotelli's Daughter Pia (Pictures) by Abrantie(op): 2:42pm On Dec 20, 2012 |
https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/12/18/article-2250154-169249D6000005DC-486_634x538.jpghttps://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/12/18/article-2250154-169249D6000005DC-752_306x423.jpg https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/12/18/article-2250154-168A98F2000005DC-919_634x318.jpg This is the first picture of Pia Balotelli, the new baby daughter of firebrand Manchester City striker Mario. The little girl was born earlier this month to his ex-girlfriend Raffaella Fico, 27, and arrived three weeks early - she had been due on Christmas Day. Balotelli has yet to see his daughter in the flesh and and is said to have only seen pictures of her via email. In her first interview since giving birth Raffaella lashed out at the player for failing to act as a proper father. In an interview with glossy Italian weekly Chi, Raffaella posed for several pictures with Pia, as well as her mother and brother Francesco, after securing a five figure deal with the magazine. Chi is the same publication that printed pictures of a topless Duchess of Cambridge in the summer which were taken while she was on holiday in France with Prince William. Furious Raffaella stormed: 'Mario for me is irresponsible. It came to a certain point where he was just not interested in anything, not in me or our daughter. 'Up until certain things happened he was supposed to marry me. That was our project, our desire. 'Then all of a sudden everything collapsed and I don't know why.' Raffaella and Balotelli were an item for almost a year but split up in March after she flew to Manchester to confront him over a series of alleged affairs - the bust up was so furious that police had to be called to his Cheshire home. Then in June during the European Championships, Raffaella contacted Balotelli to tell him she was pregnant with their child but initially he refused to accept it was his and demanded a DNA test. Devastated Raffaella then hit back and said she had no fear of taking the test and her family rallied round her as it emerged she had also been contacted and urged to have an abortion - something the deeply religious underwear model ruled out completely. Two months ago things appeared to be back on track when Balotelli issued a statement saying he was dropping the DNA requirement and that he would be 'trying again' with Raffaella and the two were pictured kissing on the balcony of home in Naples. But despite his promise it quickly became clear he had no intention of doing the honourable thing as Raffaella confirmed that after he left her in Naples he failed to contact her in the following weeks. Raffaella, who appeared on Italy's version of I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, described he moment she went into labour and rushed to the clinic. 'I sent Mario a text message at 3pm when the first contractions started and then again at 6.30pm when I went into the delivery room. I sent him another as soon as I came out and Pia had been born. 'But he only bothered to get in touch at half past midnight when my phone rang. 'I said to him "Mario, I've given birth" and he just said "Ah OK, I'm not bothered" and he then put the phone down. I've not heard from him since.' 'Mario's not even bothered about seeing his daughter - even if he doesn't want me to take a DNA test anymore I will do. I will make the results public so everyone knows Pia is Mario Balotelli's daughter.' When asked if Balotelli had offered financial help Raffaella said: 'I have not had any economic help from Mr Balotelli. 'He is worth more than da Vinci's Mona Lisa but for his own daughter he hasn't flashed a penny. I have not even had a call asking if I needed anything. I don't need him or his money.' However when asked what she would do if Balotelli did get in touch, Raffaela said: 'The door for his daughter is always open. The door of my heart is closed forever. 'I think when he came back to Naples a couple of months ago to see me that was just a PR exercise. 'Things then were not going well for him on and off the field. 'He doesn't have any paternal instincts. He is not even curious about his own daughter.' Raffaella, whose previous boyfriends have included Cristiano Ronaldo, named her daughter after a mystical monk called Padre Pio who was famous for having bleeding wounds in his hands and feet exactly where Christ had them. During the summer she made a pilgrimage to his shrine near Foggia where she was photographed in prayer in front of his statue with her mother and brother. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2250154/Mario-Balotelli-Newborn-daughter-football-superstar-met-father.html 1 Like |

ocelot2006: You Ghanaians will never seize to amuse me. The one thing that has always endeared me to my fellow Nigerian compatriots is that we own up to our nation’s flaws and make no excuses for them. We’re also not too proud to learn from any country that has gotten a process right. That’s an example of good leadership, and one of many reasons Nigeria continues to lead West Africa as its sole power and a force to be reckoned with in the African continent.Blah, blah blah... Nollywood, Geopolitics, Nigerian-owned... blah blah blah... Infrastructure, GDP, 2nd largest economy... blah blah bleep bleep BLAH!!!. All that doesn't mean a damn thing when you're scared or embarrassed to even mention you're from Nigeria, afraid of being kidnapped, mugged or r@ped; sleep with no electricity, sleep with one eye opened and boko haram always looking for ways to blow your @ss to smithereens.

Or let me guess -- you'd have to bribe your own police and military... hahahahahahaha.. LOL 1 Like |
