Go back to school so your teacher will teach you the difference between Gas and Electricity.

When Ghana first produced electricity your fore fathers were by then living on trees, chewing Cola nuts and jumping from one tree to another

When did Ghana first produce electricity?

vankelvin:
Dumb question

There is something they call season or reign, this is Nigerians reing so enjoy

What happened during Ghana's reign or when is the next Ghanaian reign?

When we say someone has influence on someone 👉 this is what we mean.

And they will do same to Amapiano

Bunch of talentless people, always stealing other people's concept

If Ghana can influence Nigeria in music why couldn't they do it for themselves to become synonymous with Afrobeat branding worldwide before Nigerians learnt it from them? So funny.

Unlike Afrobeats which evolves all the time and is a fusion with several patterns of Genres, Amapiano to the best of my knowledge is just one Genre. So we can fuse Amapiano with other sounds. Just like Afrobeats is a fusion and flexible with Nigerians.

popizaino:
The numbers of trucks that i saw bringing onions 🌰 from kebbi state just last Monday coming from Aflao into Accra is a testament to Nigerian agricultural powress. I wish i knew this argument would come up,i would have snapped to shut you up right now.

He said Nigerians are starving, lol.

You don't ask questions here

I do the questioning, you do the answering

😂 But wetin our Artists dey do no good.O, small Amapiano wey Southie dem dey manage, we Don dey Copy and influence am,
Won't be shocked if People start Developing soft spot for 9ja Amapiano.😂😂

Hip pop/Rap is US
Amapiano is SA
Afro beat is 9ja

We can add fuji or something else to Amapiano and give the new fusion it's own brand and market it. No problem with that as that would be different from pure Amapiano.

By now you should know that most of the things you mentioned are useless

GDP, Stock Market, e-commerce, Fintech, SME's yet You lead in poverty. How?

Also Boko Haram has rendered your Military ranking very useless

What again? Agric!
Agriculture sector that cannot feed the entire population is useless.
Last time I checked, lots of your people were still starving in 2023.

Now cut the jokes and come to reality.
How is Nigeria on the same level with South Africa?
Mention just 3

Okay everything there useless, no problem.
Now answer me: How is Ghana on thesame level with Ivorycoast? Mention just 3.

No need arguing with you though because I wonder what sector Ghana ranks top in within Africa.

Just know your place, that's all.

IGpro1:
let me help them:

Banku
Kenke
Stealing people's work.
Discrediting others to feel good.

That guy is funny. Very insulting to say we stole Afrobeat. Both Afrobeat and even Afrobeats of the 21st century are Nigerian.

Yes we have had influences here and there from Ghana and other places but it's insulting to say Nigerians stole Afrobeats from Ghana.

You can criticize any Nigerian who dares to claim Amapiano, but Afrobeat/Afrobeats? why? 😄

vankelvin:
Oga off your mic
Your mates are South Sudan, Somalia, Afghanistan, Iraq and the likes
Make you no use body odour kill SA.

Mention just 3 things that makes you think you are in the same league with SA?

Lol. You sef 😄

Agricultural Production with lands for produce (biggest in Africa, SA is 2nd)

Fintech (biggest in Africa)

What else can you think of?

Give me top 3 things you think Ghana beats Ivorycoast in.

waa see the argument you're making when even Fela is telling you it came from Ghana.

Good you said Fela was known first but before him there were the likes of Ebo Taylor, ET mensah, Osibisa, Kiki Gyan, Koji Ayivor, Emmanuel Rentzos , Potato and the multitude of Ghanaian musicians well known than him including the group of Ghanaian musicians whom he came to form company with.
All those guys were playing shows across the western world.

All these names you mentioned, none of them is known as the Legend of Afrobeat. Don't get me wrong, they may have been great but whatever they did was not marketable enough to transcend their time in the chronological pages of Afrobeat. Especially beyond Ghana over the years.
Of course before Abraham there were men.

Just30:
The last time it came up...we all settled that it came from Ghana even Fela Kuti himself said it.

Sometimes you guys just need to learn to eat a humble pie 😂🤣

Nigeria need to create something by itself in music so it can stop claiming those of others.
The entire music world both highlife and Afrobeat comes from here

If Fela is the first known Afrobeat legend and not a Ghanaian, then it could not have come from Ghana.

There's almost nothing new under the sun. People get influences from everywhere. You build layers upon layers and mix stuff up to bring out something that looks unique.

HNICEARTH:
Your tomfoolery made the news flew over your and you couldnt see the connect.

Again, I said forget the headline. Search for news, click on it and read the damn content.

You expect me to read balderdash from David Hundai? First you want me to read People Gazette and now David Hundai? Are these credible sources?
Now I read through your useless People Gazette story and even there, the reason for Sychelles decision is based on Nigerians going there to do drugs and Internet scams.

taylor89:
When is Tinubu visiting Chicago

I wan check something

Bloody senile frog

Cocaine ambassador

He was there in 2001.

HNICEARTH:
Dwell less on the headline. Spend more time reading the content of the news itself.

Every decision or action will always have consequences

You are indeed a clown. So Sychelles banned Nigeria because of Tinubu and not Nigerians doing drug trafficking. With this I expect other countries to begin banning Nigeria too because of Tinubu. If that doesn't happen then you must admit you are a clown.
Tinubu also caused your ban in Dubai last year and other places. I need some from what you guys smoke. Damn 😄

Standard Chartered will sell its subsidiaries in sub-Saharan Africa to Access Bank.

The British based bank will sell its stake in its subsidiaries in Angola, Cameroon, Gambia and Sierra Leone.

It will also sell its consumer, private & business banking business in Tanzania to Access Bank, a subsidiary of Access Holdings.

Kind of expected with demand for dollar so high. Hopefully increase in crude oil production and dwindling demand for forex (summer months usually sees high demand for dollars and pounds due to school fees abroad and people traveling for the holiday) should steady things by October.

Just 3 days ago, Flutterwave came up with a great initiative on this school fees payment.

Shma2023:
Lol! He said BLACK SOUTH AFRICANS! Anybody can see it! Your rugby squad is 90% whites, from under 20 to main team.

Your tech investors are MAJORITY whites. The car you're talking about are white man thing- a zulu or khoisan can't do it.

I think the advantage to this though is that black South Africans do not need to travel to learn advanced technologies from the white man since they have them settled in South Africa.

So South African blacks (getting integrated into white businesses) still have the advantage in Africa and soon they may begin to make use of these advantages.

HNICEARTH:
Well he bought all those awards. And if you dont know criminals do buy these awards or pay for PR just to get close to the US presidents, then I assume I am discussing with a kid. All you have to do is make some donations to their foundation or political parties, or support a cause and you'd be accorded certain privileges, as far as you conceal your crimes. I can go on and on with examples just to school you on this. Read about sam bankman-fried, Jeffery Epstein, ....their are so much more of such examples.

And Tinubu was never invited for any inauguration, he bought the ticket at USD 5k. It has nothing to do with PDP. it is what it is. The only internationally recognised and accepted politician in nigeria is OBJ.

Dude get a grip or go get a job

Lmao and Tinubu also bought Times Magazine for this recognition too.

Wetin you dey smoke?

Mkenya2019:
Well, for this financial year, we have no option except to to raise taxes.
There is really nothing someone can come to kenya and take - if they are coming - they will have to work hard and create their wealth here.
South Africa is different case because it middle income country - but South African blacks unlike kenya are lazy,indolent and not ready to compete.
Kenyans are ready to compete with everyone.

Uhuruu Kenyatta shouldn't have borrowed so much when he knows Kenya has little resources.
Tinubu is planning in the next few years to sell some NNPC assets worth 17 Billion dollars to help him completely wipe off some debts even before their due dates in order to reduce dollar debt servicing.

Who did that ?

Nigerian NBS says multidimensional poverty is 133 million (63%) people which contradicts this report. I believe this report here seems more realistic than that of NBS but first a population census is needed.

SPOPOVICH:
Countries with the most people in multi-dimensional poverty:

1. India - 231 million - 16.4%
2. Pakistan - 89 million - 38.3%
3. Ethiopia - 83 million - 68.7%
4. Nigeria - 71 million - 33%
5. DR Congo - 62 million - 64.5%
6. China - 55 million - 3.9%
7. Bangladesh - 42 million - 24.6%
8. Tanzania - 36 million - 57.1%
9. Uganda - 26 million - 57.2%
10. Sudan - 24 million - 52.3%
11. Niger - 23 million - 91.0% (highest % of any country)

Kenya - 20 million - 37.5%
Egypt - 5.7 million - 5.2%
South Africa - 3.7 million - 6.3%
Morocco - 2.4 million - 6.4%
Algeria - 610,000 - 1.4%
Tunisia - 97,000 - 0.8%
Seychelles - 1,000 - 0.9%

https://hdr.undp.org/system/files/documents/hdp-document/2023mpireportenpdf.pdf

As usual our local data is most likely wrong. They extrapolated to 133 million after observing just 60,000 people across the country.

AfriqueDuZuid:
Speak for yours

Say for instance, SA

Citrus 2nd biggest exporter in the world
Value $2 billion

By that way we'll be able to check productivity and revenue, no more fakeness

Ok.

AfriqueDuZuid:
In terms of world point of view..... Agriculture is very important to kenya

What does Kenya produce that it's in the top 5 in the world?

We'll move on to country by country from Kenya, Tz, Ghana Nigeria and SA, I really wanna see something

From this list, in terms of production, Nigeria and SA produce more. However, Nigeria gets close to nothing in terms of value.

KingsCity:
Too bad

Assuming a population of 200 million, N 500 billion will translate to N2,500 person

This is a big joke

So you want the 500 Billion to be shared to people?

samorobo:
My bad bro, I wanted to write Abia . I have gone back to correct myself
Btw I was talking of the cities being the capitals (owerri and Enugu). They are better looking than Ibadan,Abeokuta,ile-ife, Osagbo and the likes

Yeah I've been to Ibadan and it seems they want to maintain those old houses and stuff like that. Though I heard Ibadan is growing and some parts are nice because it's a large city by size. I imagine Osogbo,Abeokuta, and the likes would be lacking in greenery, serenity, and aesthetics compared to Enugu and Owerri.

HNICEARTH:
Tinubu was never invited to Obama's inauguration. Its was busted all over the media and also here on nairaland. He bought a generic ticket of USD 5k for Obama's inauguration, which is same as any individual buying a ticket for a football match or an NBA match. It's just ways that political parties-Democrats- raise money. He told a lie that he was invited, and he was busted.

Awards are gotten same way honorary degrees are gotten. Except you dont know how these things work. Just make donations to Harvard, oxford or cambridge, and see how they shower you with awards, plaques and honorary degrees. Those awards were bought by corrupt laden monies, and they are all meaningless.

For the negative FDI, yes it has more to do with Buhari's government than his. However, if his government was having a positive outlook, he would have recorded some form of inflows within these 2 months. Still nothing to show.

You are actually the one who is over delusional here. Wouldnt be surprised if all these defense where borne out of consumption of some hypnotic or psychotic substance. You feel attacked that's why the desperate need to defend balablu. Birds of same feathers...I get it


https://www.nairaland.com/7196413/tinubu-lied-obamas-invitation

Now you bring in retort from PDP in their lame attempt then to discredit Tinubu's outing. Someone we saw being celebrated by the Democrats and given several awards. Now your excuse is that he bought all the awards in America 😄😄😂.

Imagine a drug dealer buying American immigration office to enter America attending Obama's coronation for that matter without arrest and buying awards left, right, and center 😄. Even being honoured in America and called to give a speech and dedicate his book 😄😂. Drug dealer oo? Someone everyone should supposedly be running from.

Whatever the case, he was hosted by the democrats and gave a speech as his book was launched.

Admit you goofed on the FDI thing, you would not die.

Also, how do you know he hasn't attracted anything in 2 months when the calculation for this year has not been done?

Na wa oo 😂😄

A new refinery open in Tema ( 2 billion dollars worth of investment ). Not as big as dangote anyway. But it is actually a welcome development as it will be augmenting the only government oil refinery we have in Ghana .

They are now two.

What is the refining capacity? I mean how much barrels per day can it refine?

HNICEARTH:
"Then how do you know the world is avoiding him? You gave example of the Paris Summit."

Because of his narco history in the USA.

I only tried to explain to you that the nigerian president was and will always be invited to global events no matter who occupies the office. However, tinubu was obscure because of his person.

And I ask, how many investors have brought down their USD to Nigerian for investment?, none.
Except empty promises.
Gave you evidence of how we recorded first negative FDI in 33yrs, that's unprecedented.

Watch closely, the only persons, country or organisations who will invest in nigeria are those with shady and shoddy credentials, because the message recieved around the world is that this government lacks credibility. So many stains, from corruption to narcos to forgery, and so on. They are uncountable.
International media made a buffet out of it and feasted to their satisfaction. Leaders of every nation will sound political correct with the nigerian government, but when it's time for action, they will back down. It is what it is man

Your delusion is strong.

You said he is a narcotic, yet in 2012 during the coronation ceremony of Obama, he was invited by the Democrats and even given some awards by some Democrats including Jesse Jackson during the launching of Tinubu's book named "Financialism - How long shall we attempt to draw water from an empty well?".

You said we recorded first negative FDI in 33 years and it gives you orgasm because to you it's because of Tinubu, yet you forgot to read that the report was for last year (2022).

Who do una this kind tin?

samorobo:
Anam bra is a joke like Abuja.
Enugu and owerri to me is better than all south-western state apart from Lagos in terms of aesthetics. Pls note this is not meant to instigate tribal war, I am from neither of the state I mentioned.

Is Abuja really a joke? I don't think you are saying Enugu and Owerri are also better than Abuja if I understand you correctly.

I agree, south western states apart from Lagos have a way to go in terms of aesthetics. Enugu and Owerri villages are better in that sense. More appealing in terms of aesthetics via naked eye test.

surgical:
That was not the option before him,he just wanted to show us he has courage at the expense of the people, he wanted to get international support to consolidate himself in power, nothing urgent about it ,why did the country not collapse since buhari and others have been pushing it forward
The government is not suppose to be importing Petroleum products that it has comparative advantage in if they fail, it should not be the people that should suffer the consequences in high prices with the attendant multipler effect,besides serious countries subsidises one thing or the other for its citizens, be it health or agricultural or something beneficial for their people but here we believe we are not important to expect any benefits from government who is elected to attend to our needs to our satisfaction or be voted out
It's so pathetic, reason we always get the short end of the sticks from our leaders, they can never respect us,with these attitudes

Then why was Obi against Subsidy?
Also, all you said would have been cool if we were actually paying the subsidy and not doing things like under recovery and oil swap. It means the money was not there. Even if we should subsidise, let's subsidise only the crude oil we sell to our refineries and Dangote (when they start working) and also find ways to sell effectively to our neighbours.

Only then would subsidy make sense in our case. But at the moment, it's not feasible except state Governors decide to subsidise if they can.
