[quote author=kilmix]Its so Hilarious that the same Ghana we sent parking few years ago are the same ones talking here(or their offspring)

Any Nigerian Schooling in Ghana has been frustrated by the mode of admission into a Nigerian school(since entry into a university in Ghana is easier than entry into a nursery school in Nigeria)

Secondly,Ghana girls are the cheapest girls in the world(speaking fact here).

In terms of development and high rise building, Ghana is far behind us. Only what the ghanaians can boost of is electricity and I'll give it to them(having in mind that if Nigeria was as small as Ghana it wouldn't be the same way it is now).

Also Ghanaians here are complaining abt scam and 419...any Nigerian in Ghana doing scam must have heard abt the Black magic in Ghana(Ritual).

In terms of International recognition, Ghana is not on the map(as Yoruba is highly recognised in Uk. In their census, a column was dedicated to yoruba, Igbo is taught in primary school in Norway)

Plz dear Ghanaians, don't even try comparing with us(not even on the ground that we go abroad,there are more Chinese in Nigeria than there are Nigerians in China. that does brag that we are better than China)

DISCLAIMER: this is not to discriminate but to correct an impression./quote]

What can you develop without electricity or good universities to attend?

Y'all are fukkin morons not worthy of my time to argue with.

You see, unlike you Ghanaians, we Nigerians do balanced diets. Rather than bread and yam, we eat beans and yam, yam and vegetables, yam and eggs, yam and red oil etc grin grin

You honestly believe beans and red oil is some type uncommon food in West Africa? The joke is on you!

Google up "red red ghana".

We practically invented the use of beans, fried plantains and palm oil to create a uniquely Ghanaian and world-reknowned dish.

No where did she say Ghana doesn't have bad coconuts. However, you can be sure most of our bad coconuts are actually Nigerians or trained by Nigerians.

Can you believe that just prior to about 1990-1993, residents in Ghana leave their doors, gates, houses and windows open at night without fear or care?

Armed robbery was non-existent until the slow invasion from our neighbors 3 countries to the east.

Someone already said it -- most or almost all Nigerians in Ghana are POOR. What makes their poverty even more dangerous is they've tasted meat pepper soup back home, so anything less than that would be considered a failure. A Nigerian in diaspora will do ANYTHING to get "meat" for his/her pepper soup. Herein lies the problem.

LOL @ the fantasy that Nigeria supplies electricity to Ghana and WGP is Nigeria's gift to his neighbors HA! That venture is jointly owned by Nigeria, Benin, Togo and Ghana.

As for the Nigerian guy who went to Kumasi, bought Star Beer (which btw is a Ghanaian beer, manufactured since 1960s) and all of a sudden became a celebrity, YOU ARE DREAMING!

The reason the locals where starring at you strangely was because you were wearing a three-piece suit in 38 degrees weather, smelled funny, talk funny, looked funny and your face all sliced up as tribal marks. They were wondering "how come this anago guy didn't order human blood? May be he isn't as bad... lets be nice to him".

Religion / Re: Big-Bang Theory Doesn't Make Enough Sense by Abrantie: 6:37pm On Apr 19, 2013
Area_boy: If you don't believe what scientists tell you, log off your internet, go buy yourself a camel, make the journey to Jerusalem and wait for your messiah there. You are not permitted to use any invention that science brought us. The same scientific method that makes sure you get from your house to work, the same method that makes sure you can come online and tout your beliefs is the same one working to answer fundamental questions of our origins. Not sitting down and saying god did it undecided

You don't know it but you are a slave to your religion if you keep talking this way.. undecided

Pause for a second. Why are we restricted to one or the other? Why can't we use both science and religion to explain the universe.

Secondly, why Jerusalem? Why not Mecca or some shrine in India or one's bedroom?

Okay back to topic, lets review the The BB Theory for a second:


According to the standard theory, our universe sprang into existence as "singularity" around 13.7 billion years ago. What is a "singularity" and where does it come from? Well, to be honest, we don't know for sure.

Singularities are zones which defy our current understanding of physics. They are thought to exist at the core of "black holes." Black holes are areas of intense gravitational pressure. The pressure is thought to be so intense that finite matter is actually squished into infinite density (a mathematical concept which truly boggles the mind).

These zones of infinite density are called "singularities." Our universe is thought to have begun as an infinitesimally small, infinitely hot, infinitely dense, something - a singularity. Where did it come from? We don't know. Why did it appear? We don't know.


http://www.big-bang-theory.com/

My mama and papa are not brainy scientists or even close, but if they were to approach me and ask, "Abrantie, we don't have a car so where did the one in our garage come from?". Do you think if I replied, "it just sprang into existence" they'd accept my answer? Then why should scientist simply conclude that something as awesome as our planet or universe, just sprang into existence.

One moment, no universe. Then {{bing}}... universe!

The fact that we don't know how something came about, doesn't mean it doesn't have a creator or an architect. And if that "thing" just happens to be complex as our universe, then we're safe to assume the entity responsible is extremely powerful... a GOD.

Religion / Re: Big-Bang Theory Doesn't Make Enough Sense by Abrantie: 1:15pm On Apr 19, 2013
alfaman2: Coming from an atheist, this view might surprise some people but after studying this subject hard and giving it due consideration and comparing it with some religious doctrines, I have arrived at the conclusion that this theory is just a rubbish made up to explain some observations (as the religious made up God) but which, like God, fails woefully when probed further.

There are many holes in this theory. Even though it expalins a lot of things, actually contradicts itself.

Just last month, the most ardous proponents of the big bang as the ultimate explanation admited that they were mistaken by more than 80 million years. http://www.todayonline.com/daily-focus/science/universe-ages-80-million-years-big-bang-gets-clearer

80 million years! Think about it. The so called scientific community swept this under the carpet and said the fundamentals didn't change. Give me a break.

Let's look at the theory proper. Many scientists found problems with this Big Bang nonsense but the proponents, instead of using science, took a leaf from religion and invented something that explains away every problem: cosmic inflation!

Ask them to calculate the size of the universe if they know the beginning and the rate of acceleration, and they look like monkeys in a headlamp.

"You don't believe cosmic inflation, hey, here's dark matter." What is dark matter? Wait for it. "It is that which cannot be seen, be felt, or be heard, but we believe it is there because it makes sense for it to be there." Sounds familiar?

I believe in the ability of science to solve problems but I cannot accept blatant nonsense just because it comes from people with vested authorities.

Imagine this: A few million years ago, scientists in a far planet looking at earth and observing huge birds floating around the sky would conclude that there was not enough gravitational pull on earth to make things stick on the ground. So forget deduction through observation without all the facts.

Must we believe that everything can and should be understood about our universe?

Take our world, Earth, for instance. Look at every living thing on it. Look at the soil you walk on. Observe the wind, clouds, sky, flowers etc.

Tell me, can anybody explain their intricate designs and how they came into existence in the first place?

In primary (or is it secondary?) school biology, I learned about photosynthesis -- plants breath in carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen. And we breath in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. I remember thinking to myself, "what a perfect plan... no wonder we never run out of air".

When I became more matured to connect the dots, I concluded that, the overall design of earth itself, life on it and earth's place in our universe just couldn't have happened at random.

There is a master architect responsible for our universe. That entity is GOD and we are not supposed to know everything this powerful entity knows.

Music/Radio / Re: Nigerian Music Has Been Overtaken By Ghanaian Music’- IK Osakioduwa by Abrantie: 9:27am On Apr 19, 2013
Amya: If you get a raggaetone influence on a particular track on a song, will it be said that you stole the latino music?

If you rap, will it be said you stole the AA's style of music?

Nobody is stealing from anyone! No one has sole rights to style of musics. You can literally sing anything you want and whether or not it'll be successful depends very much on the demand/market for that kind of music.

Creativity is when you make something pleasing to the ear no matter where you get the influences. So all those screaming that making ghana styled music by our artists is them being unoriginal should take a blind leap.

No, if a musician uses reggaetone beats, then they borrowed it from ragga/reggae/dancehall or Jamaica. Hence the term "reggae-tone" (Translation: it sounds like reggae... and we're singing in Spanish).

Listen to the predominant beat in Flavour's "Ashawo", and then compare it to a Jamaican dancehall song called "Bam Bam" by Chaka Demus & Pliers (google it up).

After you've managed to listen to both, how would you categorize Flavour's song? Is it reggae dancehall, reggaeton, afro-pop, highlife, Nigerian music or what? If your choice doesn't include reggae dancehall, then you're not truly giving credit where credit is due.

Politics / Re: Inflation Drops To 8.6 Percent, Lowest In 5 Years by Abrantie: 9:24pm On Apr 18, 2013
billante: Inflation rate in the country dropped to 8.6 per cent in March , the lowest in almost five years as the impact of higher fuel prices a year ago fell out of the calculation.
According to the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), inflation eased to 8.6 percent from 9.5 percent in February. Prices rose 0.7 percent in the month.
The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has kept its benchmark policy rate at a record 12 percent for nine consecutive meetings to keep prices incheck and bolster the naira. The inflation rate has been below 10 percent, matching the central bank’s target, for three consecutive months.
Inflation will probably remain between 9 and 11 percent this year, central bank Governor Lamido Sanusi said on March 24. While Sanusi said he supports keeping the benchmark rate unchanged, more of the 12 members of the Monetary Policy Committee are pushing for rate cuts. Three MPC members voted for a reduction in the March 19 meeting, up from two in January.
The MPC will probably keep its key rate unchanged at its next meeting on May 21-22, Johannesburg-based Absa Group Ltd. (ASA) said in an e-mailed note to clients before today’s data.
The core inflation rate, which excludes agricultural products, rose 7.2 percent in Marchfrom a year earlier, down from 11.2 percent in February, the statistics office said. Food inflation eased to 9.5 percent from 11 percent

Any contemporary Nigerian music being played by this so-called musicians have a Ghanaian beat somewhere. The annoying fact is they lift these beats from existing Ghanaian songs without any shame. I can list songs after songs and can tell you which Ghanaian music the artist stole from.

No. If you know anything about statistics, the probability of that being the case is extremely low.

If FIFA's formula is good enough to catch an average of 3 players out of 24, and assuming Ghana did have at least 3 bad players, what are the chances that all 3 Ghana players were missed while other country's bad players were found?

Whether it was before the Ghana match means nothing. The reason being MRI wrist scanning is only 68% accurate. This means there's a good chance a couple more Nigerian players weren't caught.
