Dont mix mental illness with illegal drugs - what a tortured argument. Just share the link of the miracle 200M 3km bridge. That has to be cheapest such bridge.

why do I need to share a link
When I've posted everything here?

When in one sentence, your lunatic mind moved from it being too expensive to cheap ?

rvp2018:
Of course I know - a kilometre of bridge is expensive - 3 kilometres that very very expensive. 200M is NOT enough.

That is very cheap considering the scope of work ....

It should easily cost 1.8 billion dollars but we got it at 200 million dollars.

So now it's no longer expensive but cheap?
200m is very expressive and then not enough in one sentence

Good boy .... Anyway, this is the scope of work...

It will have 6 lanes, a cable string section and stand at 146 meters high, 30 meters width and will withstand winds of up to 250km/h

chrisooblog:
Yep pushing BS should be their biggest export

rvp2018:
3km bridge for 200m - implausible. Mad cow daily ranting

Lunatic always fast to post

Do you know the cost of building bridges in water ?

You dont even know the scope of the project and you are here posting nonsense....

What sort of inferiority complex is this

3km long bridge going up this year at at cost of 200million

In addition to Kumasi Outer Ring road, Southern Bypass and Western Bypass...

Huge infrastructure investments

GeneralDae:
rvp2018 do you want us to compare the non resource sectors of Kenya to the top 5 countries on that list?

they will still lose

68816419:
Most Kenyans have Delusional Disorder, they cant actually tell between what is real from what is imagined.

I will say, they've been pumped with full propaganda, they are full in the belly of it and now spreading it international..

GeneralDae:
So Kenya is not even top ten? They haven't received a quarter of what Nigeria has received in FDI, yet they have the guts to speak about Nigerian FDI? So funny.

isn't it crazy

Appisko:
Top African countries with the highest FDI for the past 10 years

with this ..... How will an irrelevant country surpass Morocco or catch up to Ghana or SA?

samorobo:
Lmao,rejection can be painful

No one wants to carry that huge debt making company

gallivant:
Accra is not any more luxurious than let's say Blantayre Malawi.

[/s]

[s]

gallivant:
Bleep out here, you lack supply in everything infrastructure. Just look at Accra, do you even have enough office space for your government ministries? Simple economics dictate prices are determined by supply. End of story.

[/s]

Go and learn

We have more office space and pricing alone compel company to buy or build their own spaces than rent at some of the most expensive prices in the world. There are more than enough space for govt ministries such that we can create new ones today and they will have a space by tomorrow.


The demand for luxury is not determine by supply ... No matter how many is supplied, prices will still remain high.

Some cities just create a kind of status that determine pricing.

That's economics 101 go and learn

rvp2018:
Yeah Ghana is a very wealthy slumpolis.

Madness as always.

rant on

Nairobi needs to develop from it slumpolis status and that requires huge investments..

Not every country has managed to make it cities slummy like Nairobi... You don't have to be going everywhere thinking that they are as slummy as Nairobi...

Not everything has to be a competition to the bottomless pit of Nairobi

rvp2018:
We have different ambitions...

Nairobi drops from list of most expensive cities
8 Jul 2021 — Mercer, an American asset management firm, found that the city has actually improved 50 positions in 2021, after ranking 95th in the world last

Nairobi out of 100 most expensive cities for expats - MSNhttps://www.msn.com › africa › kenya › ar-AALwbhf
28 Jun 2021 — The Kenyan capital improved 47 places to become the world's 145th most expensive city this year, according to a Mercer Cost of Living report ..

good for you

Atleast your city is not attracting the kind of wealth inflow Accra is attracting..

rvp2018:
Yeah you should overtake Syria - because you're a war zone. Clearly you're not Hong kong.

Syria is only there because it's a war zone with shortages and sanctions. If not, Accra will be number one ..

Tehran is also there because of sanctions ...
The rest are all there because of pure economic demand and wealth inflow

rvp2018:
Is the possibility contracting cholera in Accra now considered a luxury? Your city need to attract investment in real estate after you have managed to build a modern sewage system.

cholera was eliminated from here 5 years or so ago...

Hope your city gets to do that soon

rvp2018:
These are you mates - the have one common character - they are mostly based in West and Central Africa - and are not known for development.

30 - Bangui, Central African Republic
38 - Brazzaville, Congo
49 - Yaoundé, Cameroon
56 - Dakar, Senegal
85 - Abuja, Nigeria
87 - Accra, Ghana
99 - Niamey, Niger

not everything is a competition...Accra has an over supply of everything you mentioned

Facts remain facts

What's wrong with you ?

These are what Accra is mating with

[s]

gallivant:
Don't bring last year's stupidity here. High prices are caused by high demand and low supply. Accra is no Venice.

[/s]

Have you heard of Veblen goods?
There's actually an over supply here


Anyway, Accra repeat it position for this year.

rvp2018:
The usual madness

A Veblen good is a good for which demand increases as the price increases. Veblen goods are typically high-quality goods that are made well, are exclusive, and are a status symbol. ... Examples of Veblen goods include designer jewelry, yachts, and luxury cars.

so now you understand why Accra real estate keep getting expensive and demand keeps going up with astronomical pricing....

That's the Veblen goods effect

Don't be a lunatic this year and know how to comprehend simple things...

This is driving astronomical pricing all across West African cities

rvp2018:
Implausible that slum like houses and cheap hotels can be expensive if there was good supply.

so you want to argue a simple economic term like Veblen goods?


Accra has the second most expensive real estate market in the world and number in Africa.

The law of demand and supply do not come in, in the case of Veblen goods ....

Return to secondary school economics

rvp2018:
You dont make sense as always. More supply of housing would see drop in prices. Simple economic 101. The high prices indicate shortage of quality housing/accommodation/name it.

There's an over supply of housing in Accra and prices hasn't dropped

Accra has fallen into the Venice kind of tourist bubble which has led to astronomical rent prices....

Have you heard of Veblen goods in economics? That is what Accra real estate is.
Prices are constantly going up because of the huge demand, so more and more money is being pumped into it from all over Africa.

unfortunately, no African country wants to intervene in the political affairs of others...

The Equatorial Guineans themselves will rather go to France, Italy and Spain for political asylum than west Africa

GeneralDae:
That Equatorial Guinea is something else. A country of not more than 3 million people and amongst the top oil producing nations in Africa with one of the highest GDP per capita, yet no real infrastructure and majority live in poverty. We have a father and his son as President and Vice President and they both live like kings in the U.S. Most of their resources go to foreign countries and to the pockets of the ruling families, yet no African country seem to be concerned about this not even the AU. SMH.

Wow

Equatorial Guinea state oil company CEO has packed over 3 billion dollars of his country resources into Accra real estate..


No wonder real estate is so expensive here....

People are actually paying over 10,000 dollars a month in Cantonment, eii!!

@Vankelvin

Accra has become that silent tax haven where a significant chunk of West Africa wealth is being parked.

theenchanter:
keep confusing urself, I won't join u in the pool of ur confusion cos it's obvious u're confused.

theenchanter:
hell no!!! Some people, like rvp don't deserve it, he'll take u for a ride if u decide to be sane with him.

I know



Being intellectual with people like him... will expose his stupidity more

[s]

gallivant:
The first thing you do when back is kissing @ss! Glad you know your place and that of Ghana is on your knees.

[/s]

Its time we start speaking as intellectuals here

theenchanter:
he's just a fool that allowed his foolishness to escort him into 2022.

Please make it simple for him

theenchanter:
u're a just a microcosm of Kenyans here and I hope it doesn't translate to all d good people of Kenya.

Nigeria had 21% Agric to GDP but got $236m from it.
Brazil had only 6% Agric to GDP but got $214m from it..... Which is bigger between the two?

Simple Mathematics for u this new year.

samorobo:
Lol you are one olodo,noise making miscreant.
Let me play your game. You said our gdp is cooked just cos our cities can’t compete with SA cities and our Gdp’s are quite close(this goes to show you know nothing about gdp and annual economic output). The gdp of Morocco and Kenya is quite close(a smaller gap than Nigeria and SA) ,can you be kind enough to tell me why no Nairobi can’t compete with even thier fifth tier city.

The Accra traffic is something else. I’m chilling at home this morning. Not going beyond East Legon today.
