cacmatters: Nigeria will soon be there #Hope.

Largas: LOL.
This is a common case among some West African Health Professionals.
Normally, the pay scale/range for health professionals in oversea is huge. So some frustrated Health professionals from Ghana, Nigeria, Togo travel overseas and obtain citizenship in order to enjoy higher salary.
But, that is a wrong move. Forsaking your home country because of plenty money is not the nicest of all options.

Don't call this a Ghanaian thing. Some Nigerians do this as well. And even through other means.

Vivipop: Women of Great Substance. I aspire to be remembered as a queen

HandOfChukwu: It was found, by a white female Egyptologist but she was banned from Egypt by Zahi Hawass, the Egyptian governments appointed director of everything to do with Ancient Egypt for telling everyone that Nefertiti just like all of the Ancient Egyptians was a black African.

Non-blacks(oyinbos) don't like to admit the Egyptians were black because they taught the Greeks and Romans everything they know and even then they still couldn't understand it all. If they have to admit they were black they also have to admit THEY are inferior and black is superior, know your history.

Subom1: 2. Queen Yaa Asantewaa of Ashanti (Ghana) Yaa Asantewaa is said to have been born in 1840 and died in 1921. She was a successful farmer and mother. She was an intellectual, a politician, human right activist, Queen and a leader. Yaa Asantewaa became famous for leading the Ashanti rebellion against British colonialism to defend the Golden stool. She promoted women emancipation as well as gender equality. She was the sister of the Ruler of Ejisu (Ejisuhene) Nana Akwasi Afrane Okpase, an ethnic group in present day Ghana.

After her brothers death, Yaa Asantewaa, being very influential as queen mother, used her influence to nominate her grandson as Ruler of Ejisu. In 1896, her Grandson as well as the King of the Asante (Prempeh I) were exiled to Seychelles by the British. This was Britain’s way of dealing with African kings in the past as was the case with the Benin Kingdom with the capture and exile of Oba Ovonramwen (King of Benin) in 1897. Sending a king to exile in such times was often followed by looting of their land. This has led to the discovery of lots of Africa’s valued arts and crafts in Britain. Till date, Africa has still not been able to regain its stolen treasures.

As expected, to further entrench their authority, the British Governor-General of Ghana (then known as the Gold Coast) Frederick Hodgson, demanded the Golden Stool. The Golden stool was the symbol of the Asante kingdom. This prompted a conference of the elders. Yaa Asantewaa was highly disgusted at the behavior of her male counterparts and insisted that if the men would not fight, she would gather the women to fight for the land.

Yaa Asantewaa led the famous war known as the War of the Golden Stool in 1900 against the British. She was captured and sent on exile to the Seychelles. Yaa Asantewa died in exile on the 17th of October 1921. Yaa Asantewa’s War was the last major war led by an African woman. To date, she is honored in Africa as one of the greatest African women

lygn19: LoL...show us ur GH now.

Scyllapatron: the christian bible is marred by historical inaccuracies and distorted representations of our past, many questions are left unanswered, yet people claim they are rooted to biblical upshots. bunch of confused monarchs.
this was how they gave up our traditions and cultural heritages and were brainwashed to embrace the european and arab religions. today they don't even know who their real ancestors were, all they know now is isaac and jacob. the lost generation of Africa.

Eberex: Free will comes in terms of diseases and accidents we see today. When people have sex with animals what do you think would be the result? When we neglect certain measures in maintenance what are the results? Accidents of course! War and chaos happening today are choices we make and not God. Atomic bombs we build are from resources from the earth; who built these bombs? Everything in this world has been created for good but we are the ones who are the evil ones.

Eberex: The hurricane you are talking about is as a result of some reactions be it chemical or physical. The same thing we face here on earth too. When you plant seed in the soil was it magic that caused it to yield fruits? Its a process and the same process you find at hurricanes only it is different. Were you expecting everything created by God to be enjoyable? How then would Man subdue the earth as commanded?

Eberex: Who is this mere mortal to question God? At the beginning He created everything good. Whatever is happening now is the choice we human made. And it was as a result if the free-will given to us which was abused.

AwodwaGyanOniwe: Am based in SA and know alot of GH projects more than u think.

AwodwaGyanOniwe: Another UNKNOWN stadium that will be finished in October is the NEW BLOEM CELTIC STADIUM.
Yes SA teams have their own stadiums...

JMAN05: All these are mythology. Peter said of the Christ;

2Pet. 1:16

No, it was not by following artfully contrived false stories (mythos) that we acquainted YOU with the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, but it was by having become eyewitnesses of his magnificence.

The apostles were aware of this myths, that is why he made it clear that their's weren't such. The historicity of early Christians is not in doubt by sincere people, even Richard Dawkins agreed that Jesus existed.

UjSizzle: Seriously man, who cares about all these things? Whether it's Egypt, Israel, or bloody Iraq, we're Igbos not any of those people!

I'm yet to understand the need to identify with some ancient race. Is there a prize to be won

Afrocatalyst: Am an igbo man,but I think all these historical research of trying to decipher our origin should stop pls. Afterall which tribe truly knws their origin?

We're here already,let's make the most of it so we can pass down good history to the future generation.

londoner: Thanks, I'm actually a woman though.

qstar: @iamlord. You are good to go.
Biko, are you male or female?

craziebone: i know of Unkrumah. A historian in BBc said he left Ghana poorer than he met it.

UrbanMystique: I TRUTH02 as a Nigerian Citizen, wish the Nigerian Government elected by me to Tax Religious Bodies in the Nation.

and every church should be licenced with huge money before they can operate to reduce the number of churches/mosques that are making noises all over the street

datguru: Why on earth should that be done? For me, it means the government are stealing from God

craziebone: i have never seen Ghana as less corrupt than Nigeria. I think it is frustration that made people compare Nigeria to Ghana.

They use to be called Gold Coast. What did they do with the money?

I think their elections have been less violent because after the gold, there was nothing to fight for. Now that they have oil, we are begining to see their electoral preocess becoming more contested and violent. If you have been monitoring Ghana's elections for a while now, you will come to see that there is more controversy surrounding their elections as they go by.

The election that brought Attah Mills in is a bit more credible and less controversial than the one that brought in Mahama. Their next election will even be more controversial and violent than the past ones.

Hulkafunda: I lost my girlfriend to a Nigerian fellow at some club in Nairobi. I do not understand clearly what Nigerian men offer to the women.

efficiencie: Funny sir, yu are so funny sir!

HORUS!? 'GODMEN'!? Do you have infallible documented evidence of your assertion!? If many in this forum doubt JESUS ever existed then why must they believe HORUS existed. You could as well say SANGO existed as a man and that he was a 'DISTANT COUSIN' of THOR!

What about ISIS and OSIRIS, they are 'GOD PEOPLE' too right...and if they are 'GOD MEN they must have genealogies. Do you access to evidence to support this!?

...and what of ODIN, FREYA, TWI, LOKI, HERCULES, HADES, ZEUS, CRONOS...the list goes on bro. They are GOD PEOPLE too right!?...Even Paul and Apollos were labelled ZEUS and HERMES by the SO SO WISE GREEKS when they beheld their great deeds...

HORUS!? 'GODMEN' mehn yu r funny!

efficiencie: i love ur reply! However u must acknowledge the fact, just as i must too, that in every race and society there are the good, the bad and the ugly...among the jews, brits and even Africans...but generally i bewail what appears to be the unending subservience of the Africans to every wind of western influence...

I'm one with you on this and it's a pity!
