I can't stand dis lazy Ghanaians. Honestly

TheSuperNerd:
Hahahahahahaha......... Revealing I tell you. Nice work Op....... But what's the motive behind setting up this thread? Hmmmm....... I don't think this is gonna end well. It'll take a miracle for the ghanaian guys, partly responsible for the premature closure of a sports thread on the AAG by AzontoGhost, not to show up here in full force.

It's quite an informative list. We, Nigerians, home and in the diaspora, are aware of our industriousness, innovativeness, creativity and entrepreneurial spirit.

Truth is I'm quite suspicious of the motive behind this thread......... May it not be what I think it is. Unfortunately, the signs are not so convincing......

You might have never heard of them or see them in public, but they are ones seated in the big executive chairs behind the CEOs and MDs tables at the head offices of various financial institutions, oil companies, insurance companies and other big multinational institutions managing and controlling the economy of Ghana.
This has being a revelation through a research I conducted on heads of both Ghanaian and multinational institutions operating in Ghana. The result indicated that most of these institutions are being managed by foreigners with Nigerians being the majority where Ghanaians are assigned to the deputies and assistant positions. But what baffles me the most is whether our fellow Ghanaians are not qualified to hold such positions or never played a role in bringing such institutions to Ghana but it is a debate for another day. Nigerians no doubt play a big part in the Ghanaian economy.

cc azontoghost,, here goes your thread

ihatesycophant:
The first question we need to ask ourselves is who made trousers to be wholly for men and skirt for women. There's no portion of the Bible that describe or differentiate that. What that Bible said, is if a man use anything, it's not expected of a woman to use it and vice visa.
Take an example, a tribe in Nigeria that their men uses wrapper as their daily wear. Also, the white ladies that uses trousers as their official dresses. These are what the grew up to meet as norms in their environment. If we're also in a given environment and meet wearing of skirt by men as norm, are we going to say it's a sin. Look at this, in Biblical injunction it is expected for a man to pay bride price but in some cultures like in India is their women that pay bride price and in Ghana, their ladies is the sole controller of the children. These are norms they grew up to meet.
Hence, wearing of trousers is just a trivial issue that should not be taken too serious. In English language context, even pant and tight are examples of trousers. That's why they call them Shorts. One day a girl friend of mine was telling me, that their pastor asked all the women wearing tight to come out, and he told them that they are sinners because tight is also trousers. What will you draw from this? Meaning hell will be full of women wearing tight because nowadays virtually all feminine wears tight.
