rvp2018: Let Ghana and Eskom repay debt first. Before you saddle yourselves with legal fees pursuing a bankrupt company. Which might not survive...rendering any such claim a nugatory. Use the legal fees to buy a generator
Eskom, which regularly implements electricity outages that choke economic growth, is saddled with around 400 billion rand ($24.32 billion)
Ghana ECG and Eskom are both rich companies and that is why they can compensate their customers for damages and have been doing so.
Kenya Bankrupt ketraco and Kenya power are the ones that it sound foreign to and have been ripping Kenyans off, despite having courts, you guys can't use it. That's like you guys are in a totalitarian state
bassdow: Back in the days, Russia received AIDs from US, though they never depended on it.
Also Russia gives out numerous AIDs to lots of countries also.
These (financial) AIDs, sometimes isn't really begged for, a-times a country could just decide to assist another country to help them do certain things differently which might not necessarily benefit the receiver as much as it would the giver. Take for instance, US have been clamoring for "Climate change", they could decide to give Nigeria or even China some monies so as to help them do certain things differently so as to effect their major concern "Climate change" .
In other words, If You drive your own car to Work daily, and I choose to convince you into taking public transit (e.g BRT bus) instead, so as to reduce number of cars on the road thereby reducing Traffic congestion, I could decide to give you certain amount of Money to help you do that. When you look at it, the money is actually helping you achieve your cause, not necessarily needed by me
Also atimes these AIDs are from institutions of which you as a country is a member (in)directly. E.g during the Covid-19 era, UN + WorldBank helped a lot of countries including the USA with Financial + medical AIDs.
If those wey dey give no dey get benefits one way or the other, do you really think they would give (or continue giving) such assistance ?
You're crazy ... Which aid
Which congress will accept giving money to Russia ?
Supporting LGBT groups in Russia or NGOs control by the US is not an aid to Russia
[quote author=Otobong3374 post=120266358][/quote]NATO training is only effective for quick strike and withdraw and this tactics is only effective when fighting riff raff terrorist cells.
In a hot war, it is useless and that is what Ukraine is finding out... They can't even raise their heads out of their trenches as artillery keeps raining down 24/7.... NATO is not prepared for this kind of war.
US tanks were only meant to be driven on tarred roads Put them on snow and they become drifters .... Put them in Ukrainian mud and they are stuck forever
ProblemChild1: A poultry farmer in the North West Province of South Africa says he is planning to put in a 1.5 million rand (40.5 million naira) claim against the electricity provider Eskom after power disruptions at his farm killed an estimated 40 000 to 50 000 of his flock.
Herman du Preez, owner of the Frangipani Boerdery in Lichtenburg, told News24 on Thursday that it was difficult to know the exact death toll, as chickens were still dying.
Problems began in mid-December when problems with a transformer prompted Eskom to connect the area to another line, he said, but there had been variations in the voltage that damaged equipment such as pumps and motors.
Problems came to a head on Monday night, when insufficient voltage resulted in the air conditioning at one of the farm's chicken houses to shut down, he said. The farm has about 550 000 chickens.
"I'm busy with my homework. I'm waiting for reports from my electrician," said Du Preez. Eskom technicians had visited the farm on Wednesday in order to turn up the voltage, said Du Preez, but he added that he was now concerned about a surge if Eskom ultimately restores the area's transformer.
"So that's the next disaster that's going to happen," he said.
The continuation of Stage 6 load shedding (planned powercuts) in 2023 has sparked fears that disruptions in the agricultural supply chain could push up already elevated food prices and even result in shortages. 🔚
ProblemChild1: People that are no where to be found😂😂 Nobody dey even remember dem those porn stars sef😂😂 it's like you don't know Nigerians very well 😄😄
Mkenya2019: Ghana is bankrupt and out for next 15yrs. Nobody is interested in discuscing anything on Ghana until you're able to meet your debt obligation. Focus on nailing a debt restructuring deal this year. https://twitter.com/BBSimons/status/1616388255364313090
The contagion is just starting...
"Ghana's under pressure Cocobod defaults on maturing debt obligations shocking capital market players. Industry insiders claim that Cocobod, the country's cocoa exporting monopoly, has been told to apply their investments in the banking sector to settle creditors."
Now that your narrative on Ghana bankruptcy didn't work, you've turned to individual companies?
Anyway cocobod hasn't defaulted on it debts but it is at risk of doing so.
Focus on KQ defaults for the last 10 years ... You treasury is fed up and is threatening to not pay anymore of KQ liabilities from this year
That's good because no country should be paying debts of companies that have not been viable for 10 years
Mkenya2019: 99% agreed. Gov should support those centers of excellence in tech, entertainment, industries - and avoid spreading themselves thin. That support should be for enabling environment.
The 1% I disagree.
I don't see how a broke Nigeria gov desperately borrowing from the same private sector can lend money cheaply - except by creating more Dangote's. Countries rarely grow - never grow - from debt - but from savings - which are then invested. Nigeria is far from getting there. Right now it should try to avoid becoming another Ghana - bankrupt.
Only in your imagination
Kenya should trying saving like Ghana so what you're currently going through will be avoided.. Bankrupt . Nigeria is okay, they've got good savings like Ghana
All they have to do is reign in the cartels to to avoid artificial shortages
vankelvin: Ofcos your mum will watch, is she not into juju and evil stuffs. Why is it that only Nigerians watch those channels when in Ghana? Even me a Ghanaian I can't watch those channels for 5 minutes let alone watch their programmes.
In Ghana we have over 150 Tv channels We have the Top Tv channels We have faith based channels thus those operated by Christians, Muslims and other believers so if out of over 150 channels your mum decides to watch mallams/fetish channels who's fault is it? is she not into fetish activities?
And let me correct you on this one also, Ghana practices an Integrated healthcare system so the Herbal medicines you see on Tv have gone through all necessary processes and have been certified and approved. Maybe in your country herbal medicines are seen as some substandard medicines but here in Ghana they are certified
POKUASI2: How can you be smart and your existence as a nation is tied to IMF or there's another definition of "SMART".. isn't critical thinking and problem solving abilities part of the required qualities for being "smart" and your citizens lack these two critical components of "SMART". You're "smart" and you country would have become an archeological site had the IMF not existed
Oh leave there .. you don't have sense than to rant 24/7
popizaino: The bolded was a big cultural shock for me when i got here .
Another lie
No Ghanaian will solicit money from you for directing you. And even when you offer, they will decline to take unless you're talking to children and you decide to hand out money to them.
Shaytun: You are a very dumb fellow. You just posted a link that countered your claim.
This is from the same link you posted, abi you did not open the link you posted to read ni?
“ However, It took more than 20 years for African countries to follow the order and finally be able to set up and broadcast programs in English and any other popular or national local languages.”
You're just empty headed
I posted a fact that goes against your notion that there were no TV sets in Africa in the 1930s .... But instead of swallowing your ignorant pride , you result to tantrums
BH1 and BH2 were broadcast houses pulsating radio waves for modeling. They were broadcasting both radio and tv programs for anyone who could model the frequency and had a receiver.
And that was what was down in Ghana to set up Station Zoy in Ghana for TV and radio programs
Obaaderemi2: What is wrong with you? ZOY was a radio station that was established by the British to relay BBC programs in 1939. The Television part was added by nkruma in the 60s.
Just like saying tv started in Nigeria in 1933 because the colonial officers established the Nigerian Broadcasting Service in 1933 which is even older than your ZOY.
It was a TV station As you can see in the fact below.
Nkrumah rebranded and equip Them to run full tv and radio programs but they had already been doing limited broadcast from the mid 30s
chrisooblog: bruv for the sake of facts you're saying your station existed a full year before BBC that belongs to the country that colonized Ghana started official broadcast in 1936? ok
POKUASI2: The first black-and-white television was commercially sold in 1936. For twenty years after that point, television broadcasts were only available in monochromatic format. The black-and-white era of television viewing is considered classic programming by many people; a time when shows like I Love Lucy, Leave it to Beaver, and The Honeymooners dominated the airwaves. Average prices for a home television set during this time ranged from $150 to $500.. So you had TV station before black and white TV was sold commercially
If your sister is married or have children with any Ghanaian man then the IQ of the children will drop by at least 80 percent..
Repeating the same nonsense won't make you sound smart.
You do realize that Ghanaians are smarter than you Nigerians right? No wonder making making factories have festered in Nigeria for so long.. And you wonder how you guys are so ill nurtured and become so poor by the mass. I'm not sure you know your father.
