popizaino: What Accra has over this places is just PR or else Accra would struggle to meet up with Lome self,talk more of Lagos and Abidjan. Outside the tiny Airport area down to cantoment the majority of the whole accra is what one could easily described as a slumpolis. Accra that is like market centre, dust everywhere as if it's a mining town.

popizaino: You mean the same 70s, 80s, 90s, when one could easily count the number of houses with toilets in Ghana is when they were more developed than Lagos and Abidjan. .no be today I know say you too like dey talk rubbish.
there was no house even at that time without toilet... Massive rural migration in the late 90s is what brought those nonsense as people were scrambling for places in Accra.
Anyway when I find that documentary again, I will send it to you. Seems you want to clear your eye top.
It should be on YouTube or in their broadcasting archives...
Yeah, Telcoms have not recovered fully from the investments they made into 4g yet. Though they've consistently made profits that exceeds the investment. So I don't know much of any plans for 5g rollout here yet.
Shma2020: How can dwarf dead brain m0ron be more intelligent than a normal human in kenya? You guys are sub-humans, your IQ can only be ranked with those of snails and dogs.
In comparison with a kenya, you first need to hit our literacy level. Ghanians outside dimwitness are also illiterates. Ghanians are nothing in this planet
Ghanian most intelligent person can at best stand 'only' a kenyan in Mathare mental hospital.
You can go back and watch Larry's interview with Sam George..... I was even surprised that a Kenyan could be that dumb and exhibit it on a global platdorm. We've been educating you guys in all field since your country existence.
Sam George is one of the least intelligent people in Ghana but see how he floored your guy who is supposed to be the best from your country.
Shma2020: The dumbest people in the world are the hobbits. Hobbits have dwarf brain, they can't stand a normal average Kenyan. Ghanian IQ is always below average.
compared to a Ghanaian and our experience with other nationals, Kenyans are the dumbest..
The Ghanaian is too smart, knowledgeable and sensible than a Kenyan.
The smartest most knowledgeable Kenyan will be the least knowledgeable and smart person in Ghana.
Shma2020: If you want to talk about "writing properly" you should also be able to embrace it - don't throw words like a KG kid who is trying to master alphabetical letters. There are witty Kenyans in this platform who you can borrow a leaf from . ...
Shma2020: You're just repeating what I told you - try to be creative Mr. Nairobi of 1980 is what your president lifted as your vision 2050. Accra started developing in 2010 and still looks more of a town than a city. Accra in Kenya can only be compared with Nakuru town, period!
Accra was way developed even before your country was established..
Nairobi only started developing after 2010. And it need more years to grow.
Nairobi will only be compared to an not so really developed town like Suyani in Ghana.
Accra of the 1960s is what Kenya is dreaming to be
Shma2020: Accra of 2005 was a jungle of shanties. Accra of 2000 was a village. Accra of 2021 is a town
Show us something like this. This is nairobi of 2018 - a new Nairobi - I guess your zoo is still dreaming of achieving Nairobi of 1980 under beyond aid campaign.
Accra of 2000 was still the most developed city in East, Central and West Africa.
Accra of 2010, Nairobi still in the gutters to reach it level.
Nairobi of 2021 is a village Nairobi of 2010 was a conurbation of shanties Nairobi of 2000 was a shanty
Shma2020: Rvp is giving you pics of Nairobi in 1980 and you're busy debunking with Accra of 2018? Nigga! A tiny section of kilimani is more advance than this two apartments you're showing us.
Mkenya2019: You have eyesight problem. Nairobi the green city in the sun. Nairobi greenery is 50 percent of the city. Very few cities in world - leave alone Africa can match that.
keep telling yourself those lies job st like we keep telling ourselves that KUmasi is the Garden city of Africa..
The facts states that Accra is Greener than Nairobi and that is a fact.
Mkenya2019: I dont need any index when I have videos of Accra Ghana. You're living here because your country failed the KaziKazi picture test. Previously we had assumed you were better than Nigeria based on data.
Nairobi city center does not even have trees and likewise most built up areas in Kenya.... Satellite imaging has already proven that Accra is more Green than Nairobi..and that is what the index represent
You don't need a pic index when the reality is there to live.
That is why you Kenyans have failed the reality test.
Mkenya2019: All good except in Nairobi you do not need any heating or cooling in your house or car - so that is why Nairobi great weather is one of reason pulling many foreigners to live and invest in it. Nairobi has plenty of water around it including many streams flowing in it. The name itself mean a place of cold waters.
Accra has two problems weather-wise - trophical heat with humidity - mean it's tend to get very sweaty and nasty - you need cooling systems, tonnes of water in those polythene bags and name it to survive- and secondly it's flat - meaning you have to deal with flooding occasionally.
The worst part - Accra like west africa cities - are devoid of trees to provide some cover from all that heat and sun.
As for Nairobi and Accra - development wise - dont even compare the two. It's not even comparable.
To allow hawkers or informal traders to basically colonize streets like in west africa, set up in fronts of shops, and basically overrun the city - will mean killing formal sector or stunting it - leading to situations you find in west africa - with almost no private sector worth talking about.
In Europe and elsewhere - hawkers or informal traders are allowed to set up on specific days or times - they are not accepted as way of life.
This model Nairobi need to adopt - instead of banning hawking - they should be allowed to set up says in the evening on some streets - and on weekends.
Did this Kenyan just lie to himself that Nairobi is more green than Accra?
Someone need to pull the green city index for him to clears his eyes.
Development wise, never lie to yourself again that Nairobi will even meet Accra ... We've already know that Accra is more developed than Nairobi.
Did I hear you say there is almost no private sector here?
Will you explain why the Private sector in Accra alone is larger than your entire country's private sector?
The private sector here is responsible for the general well being you see in Ghana. It is responsible for Ghana Higher Quality of life than Kenya, less unemployment rate than Kenya and less poverty than Kenya and less slum dwellers than Kenya.
when Mombasa becomes as developed as KUmasi, we can talk.. It's not a bad thing to dream big and try to compare slummy undeveloped Mombasa to places better than it.
Mkenya2019: The best part of Accra is the worst part of Nairobi. Nairobi Eastland look even more organized than that mess. Nairobi is making the South Africans here sweat - how can we even compare it with ACCRA
Nairobi can be divided into two - West side (Not single area in that huge land is comparable to anything in most of West Africa) - and Eastland
only a glaucoma filled eye will compare these semi detached slum apartment to luxury in Accra especially when your best like Runda,Karen and co are playing second fiddle to Airport Hills, Cantoment and East Legon.
Next excuse for why Kenyans live in slums and gu*lag communist like slaug*hter mess
All of west side of Nairobi will not even match the West side of Greater Accra in development let alone it East side which developed earlier than the west side.
Everyone knows that Eastlands is a terrible place only best comparable to Accra slums.
Mkenya2019: This is kenya lower middle class. The problem remain tiny plots sizes - not even a single swimming pool - in a sweltering heat of Accra. This just kenya lower middle class.
A proper middle class estate in Accra I should expect at least 1/4 acre of land - with some swimming pool
A upper class estate in Accra I should expect each to sit on 1/2 to 2 acres of land - with swimming pool - kids play grounds - and some greenery.
does Kenya even have a middle class to even have a lower middle class? No Kenya community is even half as developed or beautiful as this place .... You can ask Steven Ndochie .... Give me your next excuse for why Kenyan properties usually look like cattle ranch
Most houses in this area all have indoor swimming pools. You don't need a huge plot of land for a luxury property.
You are speaking as if they can do anything about it....
If you are lazy and there are no opportunities in your country because the Chinese or Indians will rather hire their fellow Indians and Chinese and pay them huge salaries while the locals are paid peanuts, how do you expect them to get out of the slums into better living?
vankelvin: You never heard that part because that's the truth you refuse to accept... Slum dweller wake up and face reality..
Accra or Nairobi have both good and bad sides. Both countries are doing all they can to develop these cities but it's unacceptable that citizens look on and allow foreigners own the best part of the city
