Litmus: I see myself as Nigerian, I detest the rest of Africa.

We need more Nigerians like you. As a Ghanaian, I would hate to be lumped together with Nigerians. Your infamous reputation of a grossly-overpopulated nation that oozes out your borders like a plague, spreading across the world as scammers, drug dealers, prostitutes, and kidnappers isn't something Ghanaians and indeed other Africans want to be associated with.

If Africa relies upon Nigerians for leadership and vision. Africa would be doomed, But thankfully we still have Ghana, South Africa, and Kenya to lead the continent to a better future.

My business here is not done so I cannot go back yet. It's the same with Nigerians in countries even poorer than Nigeria like India or Cambodia, they're there to make money not because those places are better.

I am a Ghanaian originally from Cape Coast, but temporarily living in Lagos for business.

I categorically deny this ranking! Lagos cannot be just number 3, it has to be the worst. I can't imagine how another city could possibly be less liveable than this Lagos. I pray to God that I can return to Accra soon.

Family / Re: How Many Kids Would You Like To Have And Why? by ghananotnaija(m): 5:06pm On May 08, 2013
CrushX:

wooo, that's a lot. I think only 2, i don't think I have the capacity of handling more - babysitting one was a handful, so maybe even 2 will be out of my ability smiley one from each gender, first a boy as older brothers are very cool (never had any).

Of course, what I want is most likely different from what I'll actually get. The Bible decrees that we be "fruitful and multiply," meaning that we must have at least 4 children (2 per parent) and 2 of each gender. Anything less doesn't qualify as "multiply". So I consider it an important duty as a Christian to fulfill that commandment.

I want at least 2 of each gender. But ideally, I want 22 children in all.

Having seen the replies on here, let's test your knowledge on what an asset/liability is.

For an equipment (car) to be an asset, does it have to appreciate in VALUE? True or False?

Of course not, an asset can appreciate or depreciate in value. I'm not stvpid.

By the way, that was not a true or false question.

how will you be in a country where you hate the people that own it? Please if you know you hate Nigerians that much then I advise you to kindly go back to Ghana. By the way on the issue at hand what I discovered is that "a car MAY be an asset, but it’s one that incurs expenses and gives rise to liabilities over time".

I am in Lagos temporarily for business. Leaving it just because of the fact that I can't stand the country would be too costly.

A car is ALWAYS an asset. It doesn't matter if it incurs expense or whatnot. It's not an liability. You simply don't know what those two words mean. Maybe if you're smart enough, you'll find out why by looking at a dictionary. But from the looks of it, even after going through the dictionary you'll still be convinced that you were right.

Seems you don't know that Nigeria supplies Ghana electricity.

Seems you do not also know that Nigeria supplies its West African neighbours gas through the West Africa Gas Pipeline Project. Obj was about to pull out and Ghana sent emissaries to beg for gas. Erm, I was on the team that designed the pipeline crossings so don't blab anything here.

Seems you don't realise that petroleum is supplied to Ghana from Nigeria. Or you have selective amnesia?


I do remember. But isn't it telling, that the energy supplier Nigeria suffers blackouts while the energy importer doesn't? What does that tell you about competency of the respective governments?


Seems you do not realise that if our proud Igbo sons pull out their business from Ghana, your economy will take a hit, huge hit.

Adenuga's Globacom telecommunication investment in Ghana is ensuring you guys speak to yourselves with phones. Seems you have forgotten.

Your business people come to Ghana because they see higher growth here in Ghana than in Nigeria. Or else they would have invested more in Nigeria.


Nigeria is so attractive hence you have an active Nairaland account. I don't have a Cediland account or anything Ghana, because I don't need it. You have an online account designed by a Nigerian because you need it. You Charlie's need us.

Unfortunately I am currently staying in Lagos because of work and that's why I am on Nairaland. When I'm back at Accra, I'll never be on here again, that's for sure. I pray to God that I get sent back to Ghana soon. Can't stand living here.

brother ghana, on a neutral ground, time of independence is not a benchmark for messuring development. You claimed Nigeria, power outages bla bla bla. Have you forgoten Ghana import a percentage of their power source from Nigeria, so if Nigeria is synonimous to land of power outages, Ghana is definately the land of no power at all. You qualified the term "giants of Africa" 'self aclaimed' and even claimed in ur profile that Ghana holds the above mentioned title, boy, You are very wrong. Everybody knows they are the "giants of africa" all over the world, even the google search engine is sure of it. I wonder why you are jealous of that unique title. Hilarious! They actually gained the title for spear-heading Africa in the fight against colonialism, neo-colonialism, apartheid etc. They (Nigeria) pocess one of the best brains in Africa and the world, they are known for their brilliancy. No-wonder, they are feared as the most brilliant scammers, cyber criminals, terrorists (thats because they are using that uncommon gift wrongly but I dont think many knows Ghana's brilliancy at all perhaps they dont use theirs, no insult sir). I respect Ghana too for quite some reasons..BUT I DONT FEEL TOO HAPPY WHEN NATION GO AGAINST NATIONS. GHANIANS AND NIGERIANS, STOP THE FIGHT. You are brothers

Hi, I'm glad that you want harmony between the nations. So do I. Nations, especially fellow African nations should cooperate. But seriously, though, to say that Nigeria is better than Ghana is really deceiving yourself. I'm from Cape Coast and lived in Accra before living now in Lagos for work. And I can't for the life of me see how Nigeria is better than Ghana in terms of a place to live, a place to raise children, etc. If Nigerians are so arrogant and don't want to learn from other more successful countries, it's Nigeria's loss.

Pathetic Nigerians. You know you can't beat us fair and square so you resort to cheating.

Unfortunately, you can't cheat in the competition of which country is better for its citizens as a model of good governance to all Africa. In this competition, Ghana beats Nigeria easily.

Ghana may not be as populated as the self-proclaimed giant of Africa, but we are more civilised and have a brighter future. We certainly don't have the reputation as the land of scammers and the land of power outages. After all, it was Ghana who first gained independence from the British, and since then all other African countries chose to follow us.

Ghana is the leader, and Nigeria, like all other African countries, must be a follower. That's just how things are ordered. There is no other way.

North Africans were originally Negro Hearing that for the first time. Pls supply us with link(s) to support this theory of yours. Also tell us what became of the blacks when the Arabs invaded their territory. I'm waiting smiley

Is it not common sense? Is North Africa not part of the African continent, the continent of blacks? Don't today's North Africans speak Arabic, a language from Arabia in Asia? Can't you simply connect the dots?

Also, it is well-known that the ancient Egyptians were black, look at the nose and facial feature of the Sphinx, for example. And Egypt is the northeast corner of Africa, and so if Egypt was black then Morocco to Libya also must be black because how else did the Arabians get to those places without going through Egypt?

Stop believing what the whites and Arabs have told you. Africa is still being colonized by Africans as long as those Arabs are in control of the North African countries. Liberation is not complete until Cairo, Tripoli, Algiers, Casablanca and other cities look like Accra, Lagos, Kinshasa, and Nairobi.

Egypt

No, the indigenes of North Africa from Morocco to Egypt are originally black. The Arabians are invaders, hence they are Arabians not Africans. I know my facts, but it is you who have been brainwashed by whites.

Look at Algeria and Morocco, they probably just picked the most European-looking girls in their country just so they can show the world their countries are not black. Well, the indigenes of North Africa are black, so those inferior-complex-ridden Algerians and Moroccans should just go back to Europe where they belong. Africa is for Africans only!

Do you even know what a liability is? Go buy a dictionary if you can afford it! It's an asset because you can sell it for money. A liability is a debt obligation.

I don't see Washington DC brimming with ''economic opportunities for the common man'' either. It's a quiet laid back civil service city which all Americans have come to accept for what it is. They don't go around calling Washington a ''white elephant''. For ''economic opportunities for the common man'', Americans move to New York or Detroit. If a Nigerian is looking for economic opportunities, he moves to Lagos, Port Harcourt or Onitsha.



Accra is a little backwater city that cannot be compared by any sane person with Abuja. When cities are mentioned in the world, nobody mentions Accra.



Abuja failed city in what sense?

''According to Dermographia, the population of Abuja's Urban Area as of 2012 is 2,245,000, making it the fourth largest urban area in Nigeria only surpassed by Lagos, Kano and Ibadan.''

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abuja

If you call a city of 2.5 million people and rising ''failed'', you need to tell us what you're smoking.



Don't worry. Your evil dream will never materialize.

Your comments about Washington and Detroit betrays your ignorance lol. Washington is one of the largest metro areas in the US. Its economy is booming compared to the rest of the country, with jobs in all sectors save manufacturing. Detroit on the other hand is an economically deadzone... So Washington is not at all a white elephant like Abuja.

You go around the world and I'm sure more people know of Accra than of Abuja. Having been to both cities, I can say that Accra is much more vibrant than Abuja, and more important in the world stage. Ghana is developping well and is currently the envy of West Africa. Soon, it will leave the rest of the continent in the dust.

I pray everyday that I get assigned back to Accra. Living in Lagos is just too much.

Why are there so many white people there in your picture acting like they own the place? Abuja is built for the whites and the rich blacks, but excludes the common Nigerian.

Ghana, on the other hand, offers automatic citizenship for every black American. See the difference? Ghana is fighting for our race, and we know which side Nigeria is on. It's still a colony of the whites.

There's a reason why Abuja isn't a mess like Lagos or Ibadan: it's a white elephant with no real economic opportunities for the common person! It's a disgrace!

The government of Nigeria needs to go to Accra to learn how to balance economic activity with the aesthetics of a modern city. Abuja was made in the image of other failed planned capital cities like Brasilia, Canberra, Dodoma, Yaounde, kind of like those empty ghost cities the Chinese are building in the desert. What a waste of money.

But unfortunately for Nigeria, Abuja will soon be inside Bokoharamland, and will no longer be accessible to even the government.
