all4naija: Hah... It is clear you are either envious of Nigeria's GIANT nature or fear comparison. What is the size of your country's GDP anyway?

Chanchit: I think I would have to help the Op report this two fools @iconize n Elnino4whatever to the mods', cos this is d symptoms of advance madness syndrome, they should be banned if they refuse to voluntarily stay off the internet.

gboyex: @Op pls just ignore this haters group, if you reply them it just going to make matters worst and make we observers feel bad.

You are a pretty lady very obvious and those SA ladies are pretty also,
I do love that lady that co host with Ik on BBA

I believe this haters group has issues not necessarily with you personally just an aftermath of “the system”

ANAMBRA11: They re fine I ve seen loads of preTy south african ladies

Psychedelia: I've had it with these people coming on here trying to piiimp their shiitty blogs like this.
Crap!

PS: Limpopo is a river and 'poverty-stricken' province in South Africa.

Moratiwa: Limpopo is a province and a river in South Africa.And Koko means grandmother in Sotho/Tswana group of languages,accept it,the song has no meaning.

Two Ghanaian's, killing countless nigerians monkeys on this thread.

@ Petro & GHkwame, Ayekoo!!!!!!

PetroDolla2: aponkye! kids in Ghana are busy acquiring skills in robotics, their mumudom counterparts are busy kidnapping, robbing, yahoo yahooing, boko harams,pr0stitutes, oil bunkerers, pirates, terrorists such a deluded lunatic!
their university students are armed robbers,cultists and pr0stitutes

400 Ghanaian students compete in building robots for 'NASA'

http://www.globalnewsreel.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=106:400-ghanaian-students-compete-in-building-robots-for-nasa&catid=28:technology&Itemid=12

Some four hundred students from more than 40 Senior High Schools in Ghana are currently competing in the building of robots with expert instructions by a NASA Senior Robotics Engineer, Dr. Ashitey Trebi-Ollennu.

A statement issued and released by the Public Affairs Section of the US Embassy in Accra said the students would participate in kick-off workshops, introducing them to robotics kits, guidebooks and additional training suggestions.

The competition, which started Monday, October 3, 2011 at the Tamale Senior High School (Tamasco) in the Northern Region, is dubbed, the Robotics Inspired Science Education (RISE) initiative.

It is aimed at inspiring the Ghanaian youth to pursue science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education.

The initiative is also aimed at covering other robotics science clubs from senior high schools in Accra, and Takoradi in the Western Region.

With robotic building kits from the LEGO education, the competition would end on October 11, this year, in Takoradi.

Robotics is the branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation, structural disposition, manufacture and application of robots.

Robotics is related to the sciences of electronics, engineering, mechanics, and software. The initiative, according to the statement, is through a collaborative multi-partner effort including the United States and Danish governments.

RISE seeks to transform the learning experience of young Ghanaians by connecting science theory with hands-on learning experience.

“Not only will teachers and students strategize, design, build, program and test an autonomous robot to solve defined real world problems, but students will develop leadership skills, self-confidence, presentation and communication skills and stewardship through the experience of Robotics competitions,” the statement disclosed.

In his support for the effort, Ambassador Teitelbaum noted, “In an era when Ghana’s economy is expanding rapidly, Ghanaian students will be well-served to engage in science, technology, engineering and math activities such as those offered by robotics.”

“Nearly every sector in Ghana’s economy could benefit from expertise acquired from application and development of robotics – from medicine to agriculture, textiles to oil production and mining.”

The Danish Ambassador to Ghana, Carsten Nilaus Petersen also saw the initiative as an important element for the development of the high-tech industrial sector in the country and a significant input to the advancement of Ghana’s research capabilities.

All of the partners on this project would also seek to organize future workshops and robotics science competitions, and to expand the project to other high schools, junior high schools and colleges.
