GHKWAME1:
Ironically both Kenya and Ghana have malls having west as their first names. I know the existence of an anti terror unit of the Ghana army within the enclave of the airport city where both Accra and Marina malls are located, West hills mall is outside Accra(why people keep making that mistake beats me).

Just felt like sharing the quote below.

A Ghanian doctor was denied entry to Spain and
he wrote this to them;
The Deputy Head of Mission
Embassy of SpainAccra, Ghana
26th April 2015.
Dear Sir:

I applied for a short-term visa to attend a
medical conference in Barcelona from 26th April
to 29th April 2015 and by your response dated
22nd April 2015 I had been denied an entry visa
to your country.

As was written in your rejection letter, I have an
option of lodging a contentious-administrative
appeal at the High Court of Justice of Madrid
(Spain) within a two-month deadline counting
from the date of serving.
Since it is nigh impossible for me to get myself
to Madrid and lodge my appeal I have decided to
personally write to you for some clarification.
The reasons for denying me an entry visa were
that the information regarding the justification
for the purpose and conditions of the intended
stay was not reliable and also that my intention
to leave your country before the expiry of the
visa could not be ascertained.I know it is your
prerogative to decide whom to grant a visa to
but I feel personally insulted for the reasons you
have given for the denial. I am a highly trained
orthopedic surgeon with specialty interest in
orthopedic sports medicine and complex joint
reconstruction. I have been a doctor for the past
20yrs. My current positions are:

1. Consultant Orthopedic Surgeon at the KorleBu
Teaching Hospital.
2. Lecturer at the University of Ghana Medical
School.
3. Fellow of the West African College of
Surgeons
4. Consultant for West Africa Rescue Association
WARA. (I treat patients from the expatriate and
diplomatic community including quite a number
from Spain) I am sure if you were to injure
yourself, am the most likely surgeon that you will
be referred to.

I have attended medical conferences in Germany,
Switzerland, South Africa, Japan, Canada, USA
and Norway. Incidentally all these countries
found my purpose for travelling justifiable except
you.

The letter of invitation I presented to you was
written by a renowned surgeon in Madrid who
trained in the same institution as I did in the
United States. But I guess you did not find a
letter written by such a person credible enough.I
find it laughable that you think I will not return to
Ghana and end up as an illegal immigrant in
Spain where people of my skin tone are treated
as second-class citizens. I have a wife and
children whom I do not intend to abandon.
Although I do not consider myself wealthy, I am
very comfortable economically and have
investments in property and other assets in
Ghana.

How did you ever come to the conclusion that I
was a flight risk? May I kindly remind you of
some basic facts about your country?
1. The unemployment rate in Spain presently is
25% and youth unemployment tops 50%. Why will I leave a stable job and to go and join the
unemployment ranks in your country.
2. From January 2009 to end of 2013, 400,000
Spaniards emigrated to look for work outside of
your country. And this is expected to rise in the
coming years.
3. Doctors in Spain are the least/worst paid in
the whole Euro zone. Why will I want to go work
in a country where my counterparts are leaving in droves for economic reasons?
4. In the year 2012, it is on record that 2405
medical doctors applied for certification to work
abroad, according to The Medical Spanish
Association – a 75% increase compared with
2011. 83% of doctors seek jobs in Europe (mainly the UK and France) and 7% America.
5.In 2009, the Health Ministry warned that there
was a shortage and that the country needed
around 3,200 more doctors. By 2025, at the
present rate the shortfall will be around 25,000.

The Spanish government has talked of increasing the number of university and medical school places, as well as making it easier for overseas personnel to work here.
Sir, as a representative of the country of Spain
you have failed woefully in your responsibility to
promote the interest of your country by denying
me a visa. My skill, knowledge and experience
will be invaluable to the Spanish people even if I
decided not to come back to Ghana.
Furthermore my budget for this conference
topped € 5000. This is the amount of money that
would have been injected into the Spanish
economy in a week. Can you imagine the
economic loss if all the doctors from all over the
world attending this conference were denied
entry into Spain? I was due to present two
papers and since I was not able to go I have
informed the conveners of the conference of my
inability to attend. This is an international
conference and can you imagine the
embarrassment your compatriot doctors will feel
when it is announced that I could not present my
scientific papers because you denied me a visa?
Never mind that I cannot get a full refund for my
ticket and my total booking for the hotel is not
refundable.Given the reason for visa rejection, a
detailed explanation on which aspects of my
application did not provide sufficient evidence
that I will return to Ghana is most welcome. I am
particularly curious to know of the lofty
economic standards set for Ghanaians to visit
Spain when Spaniards themselves barely meet
these standards.

Long story short: time to kick out NDC.

mrham03:
gooaaalll, yes lets go ghana

GHKWAME1:
Well I am not surprised you are getting this info for the first time, some minutes after my reply to you I saw it on my Facebook timeline and modified my reply to you providing the link.

Accra is indeed the social service hub for west Africa. Nigerian number plates are now a feature on our roads. Two days after a failed robbery attack at the west hills mall the place was packed on Monday which was a holiday.

SambisaaForest:
Hahahaha SambisaaForest or PetroDolla abi. No mudder fuggerz

adamskutty:
sambisaaforest is petroldollar my mad dog.

GHKWAME1:
Yeah, I am game 0n for anything Ghana.

GHKWAME1:
Naa, I ain't a member. I just observe from afar.

mrham03:

GHKWAME1:
Charley! Not you too. @SambusaaForest man is the account holder of @petrodollar.

What is your username on skyscraper city?

GHKWAME1:
ewoo! This girl will not kill me, abah!
At this rate ghboy and otumfour will soon be added to my account(s).

Its been about four days now since I posted the above ^^^ quotes to try and prove that wale's account is not mine, you have stylishly ignored them and brought in another conspiracy theory. ermmm! who is the psycho now?

For the avoidance of doubt, @GHKWAME, @GhKwame1, @GhPatriot, and @obrafour have been and will always be owned by me, any other account does not belong to me.

Batman123:
This is so true. I really hope Ghanaians have learnt a lot from these past 5 years because things are not the way it should be. I really do believe that we will get the change we need come 2016.

iMerchant:
Thanks Boss

micktoxin:
Ghana is planning to build a 75 storey building, so I doubt it be the tallest. Potentially, it is looks like it might be the most beautiful in Afirca.

omololu2020:
can u prepare it?

SambisaaForest:
you sound like a very ill-informed individual. even in developed countries the lights do go off occasionally. For a developing country in Africa, Ghana us doing great with power production. The biggest challenge for Ghana is having enough gas to power it's thermal plants.

Nigeria with its huge oil and gas resources can't produce enough power for its people. I think that is the biggest shame of the century. For that reason alone, nigerians should bury their heads in shame. There is enough gas in your country to supply power to the whole if africa. But what do we see.......mitschew

DICKtator:
What poo is this?

Ewwwwww!!!!!

Hope it doesn't taste the way it looks?

Batman123:
I am a proud Ghanaian too but that does not mean i should accept mediocrity just because the president is the same nationality as me. He is the worst president to date and has made a lot of bad decisions that have not been in the interest of our country and citizens. If you accept such stuff then it's on you bra. Vote for him next year if you want too. A lot of people are fed up with him and calling him foolish is putting it lightly in my opinion. There is no need to get uptight about this though imo. I won't attack anybody if they said wonderful and good things about him. It's their opinion. People will not always say what you like or have the same opinions but fighting them about it is not the answer. I would like to know what the other Ghanaians think of him though. Jiggamangh, Royalpearl, V0lv0, torgbe, achimotan, iamord,chokl8candie, Slicqyprizzy, aduaba

ifyalways:
Y'all can argue all you want but I think Ghana men are one of the world's finest. Loyal, loving and faithful to the end. Otolege

Errhmn, Mahama has made a joke of NDC and is IMO, Ghana's worst president.
Can't wait to vote again. NPP. . .all die be die

Notyourb1tch:
But I must say it's not nice when it's Ghana versus Naija cos am always stuck in between

themodernman:
It must start with the woman. A woman who marries a foolish man will only produce a foolish offspring. And the cycle continues.

themodernman:
You may say that but not everyone can be as wise as you are.

Mobyloaded:
Nigeria Got Talent. Its jes that its very difficult for them to get to limelight

Mobyloaded:
Lol. You mean Nigerians are singing shit?

elantraceey:
All of you screaming biblical fact please point out in the bible where we were told to worship unclad

If you have no knowledge of the word of God please just keep quiet that try to interpret the word with your own wisdom .


David danced unclad , look at the word danced , not prayed or worship , he was dancing with clothes on at first then the spirit came upon him and he just had to take them off, he wasn't asked to or compelled to .

themodernman:
That's the essence of the Holy Spirit...only Him will draw you & teach you the right thing so as not to be swayed around by all manner of doctrines....

I feel like writing a book.

joshadedapo:
This end time period will be full of madness. The bible had said it and I believe it.
