nemesis8u:l know your fear nemesis8u, you are scared the Kenyans here would begin to hate your people(lndians in Kenya), but l don't think they are that stupid. l believe they got the message we've been trying to pass across already. |
lexyman:Morocco is the true dark horse of this tournament. l still do not believe Portugal would qualify from that group. Portugal have their work cut out for them if they wanna make it. |
jaycent:Going by the logic of rvp2018, Ghana with a GDP of 37 Billion dollars can't even pay a debt of 160 million dollars?? that Ghanian GDP must be cooked. |
emeka1101:You can't be taken seriously on your so called hatred for Nigeria when you answer emeka, so you must either be a Kenyan( people who worship everything Nigerian) or a proper lgbo boy, or just one very unserious fellow. |
A so called Ghanian who takes pride in a Nigerian name. |
emeka1101:lol, this is delusion at it's peak. I would give you a list of this so called 2% and it would fill up this thread. Glo has 37 million subscribers in Nigeria and it is in other West African countries, so Ghanian subscription is irrelevant to Glo. lol Ghana took over our movie industry?? when?? how?? on the Contrary name any Ghanian top actor or actress and he/she became a star in Africa because of nollywood, this is not an hidden fact. Also many Africans who do not follow movies can name 5 Nigerian movie actors without thinking, just from the top off their head but they may falter when asked to name Ghanian actors or actresses. Took over our movie industry indeed. And please there's nothing attractive about Ghanian English. People who use left as present continuous tense, would hardly know how to speak English. Check your Waec English books even from the eighties and tell me the name of the authors, also give me the Ghanian equivalent of Chinua Achebe, Woke Soyinka, Chimamanda Adichie and the likes or forever hold your peace on this English language topic. |
jaycent:l am against jungle justice though but the media in Nigeria hardly classify foreigners especially African foreigners the way the other countries do. Ever those from Niger republic here are also classified as Nigerians. |
jaycent:How many times has Naija even hosted that concert? |
emeka1101:l gave you categories of Nigerians in Ghana who are industrialists and businessmen, even your Ghanian reports have it that Nigerians are the highest investors in Ghana from Dangote to Coscharis to Banks, even Globacom sponsored your league at a time, and Aiteo(which sponsors CAF, was almost called upon to sponsor your league as well). Globacom also made your actors and actresses ambassadors together with Nigerian actors(without segregation), and nollywood exposed your movie stars to the world such that they are also worshipped by Kenyans. Apart from us having Ghanian teachers in the eighties( due to the fact that many Nigerians abandoned teaching for other higher paying jobs then) can you tell me what Ghana has ever done or is doing for Nigeria? FYI your people are also criminals here, just that in Nigeria except you are white you are almost not easily seen as a foreigner, so the media in Nigeria hardly takes these things into account, but this is not the case with your media in Ghana. |
emeka1101:l do not even see Ghana on this forum. |
emeka1101:On the Contrary it's the Ghanians who always compare themselves to Nigeria. We don't even have your time. |
emeka1101:Why is your moniker emeka? you better change that moniker to Koffi. |
nwoke39:Kenya and Nigeria are not competing, it would be an insult to Naija. |
emeka1101:The funny thing is that many Ghanians are in Nigeria doing menial jobs but this is not the case with Nigerians in Ghana(either for good or bad), they are either industrialists, or top business men or Bank Managers(setting up Banks), students in private schools (paying high tuition fees), traders of almost anything( automobiles, spare parts, etc) or unfortunately scammers and fraudsters. But then the Nigerians in Ghana are making their presence felt both positively and negatively(unfortunately), but there are lots of Ghanians in Lagos and across Nigeria, many prefer tailoring or they just buy cheap goods in Lagos to sell for extremely high prices in Ghana, the rest are just there behind the scene and hardly making any impact, so tell me the most useless to the other amongst both. |

As far as I'm concerned this is misplaced priority. Giving money to the rich, l fail to see how such an investment would pay off in the long run. There are lots of projects they could spend that money on within Nigeria. |
Yobeezy:My man, shithole is shithole. |
Yobeezy:Africans shouldn't be comparing anything yet, shithole countries everywhere. |
TayserMahiri:So? what do we do now? |
emeka1101:Ghana is owing just 80 million dollars, aba nah. Maybe you guys should beg Adenuga to pay on your behalf. |
emeka1101:Nigerians trooping to Ghana(which is probably false) when did that become an acheivement for Ghana? |
obaaderemi:lol, l do my best bro, sometimes it reads like arabic. |
Jonraid:Better. |
sufferNsmiling:For the first time you said something quiet reasonable. You are not that far from the truth. |
Nowenuse:Only the likes of Kikuyu 1 are eating the good of the land together with the 44th tribe. |
obaaderemi:One of them was speaking of Kenyan fashion brands in America a while ago and he was talking about suits and how they produce western clothes. l had to let him know Nigerian designers hardly produce western clothes even when we sell to America, it is always designed with a touch of culture such that even the likes of Mitchelle Obama rock it proudly. |
Nowenuse:l think the fault lies in us, probably we didn't rise against the military dictatorship because we were not always united along tribal and religious lines, we had three major tribes always at each other's throat. We only got aroused when Abacha made known his intention to rule indefinitely, that was Abacha's mistake, he died immediately. |
NigeriaIsDoomed:Not just kings of soccer but queens of soccer, 10 time African women champions. |
Here is from the Facebook page of Strive Musiyiwa( a Zimbabwean telecom entrepreneur) on Nigeria.... [b]The day I discovered the true wealth of Nigeria __It's not all about oil! When I first arrived in Nigeria to set up the country's first GSM mobile network, Econet Wireless Nigeria (now Airtel Nigeria), I had to serve as the company's interim CEO for about six months, until we appointed someone substantive. This meant I practically lived in Nigeria for most of that time. It was a remarkable experience, and one which will remain with me all my life. Nigeria is one of the most exciting countries in the world, and could be the next China before the turn of this century. I just want to share with you one particular incident which led me to that conclusion: As many people know, today Nigeria has over 120m mobile phones users. To imagine that I made the first ever official GSM mobile call in Nigeria on 6th August 2001 seems almost unbelievable... Our company Econet Wireless Nigeria was in a race with MTN Nigeria, the only other operator at the time, to meet a deadline set by the regulator for 8th of August. We beat the deadline and MTN by two days, and as Interim CEO, I had the privilege to call the regulator to tell him we were "Live"! What a moment in my life! It's something I'll always cherish. I don't really care whether I own or don't own a mobile operator there today. My success will always be measured in terms of my small contribution in kick starting the largest mobile industry on the African continent, and it is Nigeria. Several months before the launch deadline, I'd arrived with over 100 engineers and technicians, drawn mostly from Zimbabwe and South Africa. At the time, since Nigeria had been delayed by the military governments from acquiring GSM, it was one of the last markets without this new technology. President Obasanjo, who had just won the election two years earlier, wanted to change that and had issued three licenses, but one had been delayed. This meant that when we started operations, Nigeria had no homegrown engineers or technicians with experience in GSM mobile technology. (Today it has more than Southern Africa combined!) So whilst setting up the network to meet the deadline, we used expatriates from other African countries that already had GSM. We also began the process of recruiting Nigerian engineers and technicians who we would retrain for this exciting new industry to take over from the expatriate team, which wanted to do in the shortest time possible. We had literally thousands of posts to fill. In one instance, we placed newspaper adverts in all leading newspapers asking for people qualified in electronic engineering, at degree level, and with minimum five years relevant experience. I'll never forget the response. I came into the office to find sacks piled up to the ceiling full of applications! "I only want to see the applications from people who meet our requirements, and not from chancers who aren't qualified," I complained. "Sir, these are the ones we have vetted." "What?! You mean there were more than this?" "Thousands, sir." Then I came up with an idea: "Why don't you separate for me, the most qualified academically. Set aside people with MBAs, and even PHDs." A day later, a sack was delivered to my office. I was staggered! There were thousands of people with qualifications in just this one discipline with MBAs and PHDs! Many had qualified in the best universities around the world. There were also GSM-qualified Nigerians working internationally, including in America and Europe, wanting to return home! I was blown away by the qualifications. I thought to myself: "You can start almost any business or industry here. I wish investors would one day discover the wealth of this nation." Whenever I hear people talk about the wealth of Nigeria in terms of oil, I shake my head to say: "You have no idea what you're talking about!" The true wealth of Nigeria is its extraordinary human capital, and passion for education. Unleash that and no one can stop them![/b] Taysermahiri, rvp2018, this is what I'm talking about. The system in Nigeria wasn't working, and the educational sector had nothing to write home about, there was a repressive military Government, but that didn't stop the Nigerians who loved education from going all around the world to get educated, and so when the opportunity came there were thousands of qualified people to take over the telecoms sector, if this wasn't the case maybe foreigners would be the ones dominating those jobs from that time, but there was no chance for that right from the beginning. |
jaycent:Of course no Nigerian would name himself suffersmiling, even those who hate education would never make such a mistake. This Nigerian wannabe Kenyan drives me crazy with laughter. |
obaaderemi:Abi o, even me I'm scared too and l guess Nemesis is also scared for his people, this is why he reappears anytime lndia is mentioned. One of the Kenyans here was even narrating to me why the Government refused to ban lndians from manufacturing, clearly this shows they misunderstood the point. No one is talking about Government interference against lndians or closing down their businesses in Kenya, what we've been singing all this while is COMPETITION from black Kenyans nothing else. l never knew this would be difficult to understand. |
Jonraid:That's not a problem, we have nothing against lndians oh. |
