polemic.What Xmas.I am not a christian

who said Xmas is a Christian festival ? Dumb kid

obaaderemi:
Traffic on Xmas day?
Yesterday was a mess here in Ibadan, but today most of us are at home celebrating.

In Accra, the serious Xmas traffic start in the second week of December and it persist till the end of the 1st week of January.

obaaderemi:
Kenyans don't possess the brains to play an intricate game like soccer. They know their limit, except that idiot you quoted.

obaaderemi:
Merry Xmas to y'all.
What's Xmas like today in your enclave?

Traffic after Traffic but Takoradi will be all fun this afternoon..

Can't you imagine being in traffic during mid night and even at 4am, there was still traffic on Accra roads



Merry Christmas

rvp2018:
You don't understand how budgeting works and how would build a interchange that huge.Its not even you money..with all oil and gold you're still begging Afdb for 99 percent financing.Dont run before you crawl.We have good local contractor...bigger than any in Ghana but we cannot give them roads that serious.HZ Young a Kenya contractor is building 300m dollars road in lamu to garissa..that your entire annual road and highway budget

[/s]

Go and celebrate Christmas and stop posting nonsense ....

Basically, Ghana is spending half of your country entire infrastructure fund on roads alone ..... It will take centuries for your country to catch up to us infrastructure development..


Like I said earlier... If I decide to post development projects happening in Ghana, I will flood the entire platform with video evidence of every single road of this 11,000km project... And likewise rail infrastructure...

rvp2018:
The point is your gov budget for road is split over the construction time.Brazilian contractors will take 3yrs..Chinese will do it in less than a year

If you know how contracting works, you won't be making these useless noise .....


Naa, we ain't giving our monies to Chinese, we will give it to our own contractors.... Hence the money will create a multiple effect in our economy....


Only a fool will borrow money, give the project to a foreign contractor to take away and latter on pay it back with interest...

We've stopped doing that.

rvp2018:
You ignorance is no longer shocking.If a project like poukase interchange will take 3yrs the budget is split into 3yrs..gov doesn't bank money..it budget for what it will pay contractor that year..so 20m in 2018..mostly loans from Afdb..next year until it's over.

Pokuasi interchange is not a small project and it wasn't built with precast concrete for it to take less years ...

You can't use precast concrete in the area it was built because it will be unstable......


You are still making useless noise

rvp2018:
Empty words not backed by empirical evidence.Yes you take 4yrs to build interchange..most expensive poukase at 100m..so basically you allocate 20m per year and things move at snail pace.Budget is total estimate..the appropriation is actual expenditure..generally you overbudget..for example in capital expenditure your budget 16b cedis but spent 12b cedis in 2021.Next respond with a link..not empty words

if you know what is like to build in a Rock hilly earth quake zone, you won't even be making noise ....

A project allocation is made in a single year .....


What's the next excuse for why Kenya can't make similar investment into it infrastructure to the extent that only 23% of your country is urban ?



Go on YouTube and view projects we've done with 3 billion road investment ... You guys keep making useless noise here just to be at our level but it hasn't worked

Just Ghanaian contractors doing massive road construction on Ghana's 13 billion infrastructure funding funds..


Kumasi alone is building more new expressways than your entire country

rvp2018:
All monies in every country are spent that way..you spend 300m dollars as capital expenditure..not recurrent expenditure.Read that pwc budget analysis.Kenya spend 2b dollar on roads.. nearly 10 times yours...this exclude private roads like expressway

Does 300m looks like money that can build 25 new interchanges and 11,000km of roads?

Ghana is spending 3 billion dollars on road investment, 4 billion on railway investment and the rest of our 13 billion yearly invest goes to the Heath, education and other sectors of the economy......

The above is even separate from the 20 billion dollars my govt is investing into critical industries in my economy to expand them and get them ready for Africa free trade...

See how you are fumbling such that expressway are now private roads
Eii boy, when you you stop lying? Do you know what a private road is?

Christmas is always fun in Ghana

Merry Christmas from the beautiful city of Accra

rvp2018:
Ghana zoo..entire expenditure for roads and highway is 300m dollars..that is big joke.Total infrastructure Budget was 16b cedis versus actual 12b cedis or 2 billion dollars ...https://www.pwc.com/gh/en/publications/budget-highlights.html

that is total expenditure to keep the ministry running .... Like I said earlier, we only budget for recurrent expenditure...

All infrastructure spending comes from appropriations ...


All govt does is, send an appropriation bill to parliament saying they placed to construction of this road or that railway in the budget and are coming to seek approval for money to be withdrawn from Ghana mineral investment fund or Petroleum funds or so many other sovereign wealth funds..



This is why Ghana spends more money on infrastructure development than your country every year....

So far, Ghana is doing 13 billion dollars while Kenya is doing 7 billion

[quote author=popizaino post=108787548][/quote]typical nonsense... Can't handle the facts

Even if you go on skyscraper city self, you won't find this massive project he is talking about.

you and your stupidity... You think Ghanaians have time to go and post projects on skyscrapercity ?

You only find completed projects there and proposed projects with no update

Saddamochieng00:
Video evidence for the 11000 Kms if road? Mind you we have Google Earth and can see every corner of your tiny country

go to YouTube you'll find many .....

And all the roads earmarked under this 11,000km project have broken grounds



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_Qxpk6IEcg


If I say I'm posting videos here I'll flood the platform

rvp2018:
Useless

rant on

Your country can try being good at sport by building proper sporting facilities first

Saddamochieng00:
Any link for this accompanied with video evidence. All the projects in Kenya or any other serious country are well documented. I can log onto the net and keep track of development projects in countries as far as Georgia. But for some reason an irrelevant country like yours has no single piece of evidence for all this massive development.

it's well documented in our budget and there are video evidence on everyone of them.


Kenya is irrelevant hence your incessant need to want to compare with countries we respected and we'll developed

Mkenya2019:
What have you achieved in football globally - Nobody in Africa has done shiet for last 100yrs. Getting to quarter finals alone is HUGE DEAL -

In sports kenya plays - we have are KNOWN GLOBALLY.

We compete at world class standards.

we've won the under 20 world cup for both male and female...

We've gotten to the senior level qrts..


You guys are not known anywhere in sports ....

We are well know globally in sports than you ......

Our global hall of Fame boxing records can't be matched by Kenya.

poor food will never make you play at the world cup or win any kind of world cup football ...

Nother will poor food make you become an international Boxing champion...

rvp2018:
cane rat their national delicacy

Kenyan food is still crap ....
No wonder you guys look like the valley of dry bones

theenchanter:
and we want their urea to process the fertilizer.

It's a win-win.

they have urea?

I didn't know ....
Then it seem Ghana should be heading there...

GeneralDae:
It's a trade. It's also the only way we can sell to Europe.

yes I know .... That's why the pipeline must be built

Nigeria has a lot of gas to feed the entire West Africa

theenchanter:
I think Morocco is for the fertilizer.

Morocco wants your gas

Shma:
Dumb! dumb! dumb!!!! So by your logic, her 2weeks visit to Nairobi - from a city she has lived years, is more justifiable than the other way round?

again the facts prove otherwise....
You can fit Nairobi CBD 3 times into Accra CBD and there will still be space left

Shma:
What are you Talking About? I'm talking about the woman who trashed airport CBD(the most overrated and advanced CBD in accra) when she saw Nairobi.

Airport city is just a small portion of our entire CBD ....

You can't basically fit all of Kenya CBD in Accra CBD and you will still have space left to triple it

Shma:
Don't pretend. We had a Ghanian - American YouTuber who patched facts to your head. He gave you the reality. She said westlands alone can swallow all ghanians CBDs And still remain with space.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Km0bkYY1Ug

which Ghanaian American YouTuber ?

That's because she doesn't even know the confines of Accra CBD ... She taught it was just the small area around ministries

rvp2018:
The usual madness...Ghana budget is 17B..half Kenya budget.The nonsense about speaking three tribal language is amusing

just ask the IMF they have data on what your country invest on infrastructure
Ghana makes additional 15 billion dollars in appropriation bills yearly..

Ghana budget is 25 billion and that is 25 billion for recurrent expenditure... While the entire Kenya budget is 30 billion dollars which is money for everything including investment.

GeneralDae:
There is a limit to what she can see. Probably she only visited a small part of Accra. It's just like the white Youtuber who went to Kano and Lagos, but was only interested in showing slums and markets. But apart from the Ibadan he visited ( which I know has a lot of old structures), there's much much more to see in Lagos and Kano. However, the YouTuber may have made his conclusion just from the areas he visited alone. So in some cases, statistics would give a more accurate picture than a lone visitor to a country.
The statistics state that Ghana has more infrastructure going on than Kenya the last time I checked.

she lives in Osu... A small coastal community that she has never left before, since she came to Ghana .....
A community that is already well built

Shma:
Post one mega project going on in ghana or forever STFU. Your data can't be justified with pictures on ground, you know?

don't make noise

Go and look at Ghana 21 billion dollars on SGR projects and forever shut up

rvp2018:
Which data.. it's not even close.. you're own president lifted Nairobi of 1980 as your 2050 north star

let's go with this year

Ghana is building 11,000 kilometers of roads and your country is only building 600Km

Ghana has almost 2000km of additional SGR under construction and your country has none..

Ghana has more hospitals under construction than your country

More schools under expansion than your country

More sports facilities under construction than your country ....

More housing unit under construction than your country


Pick any feild of development and we will have more development there than your country

Shma:
You're those kind of people who can dispute a real picture because data states otherwise.

The lady has lived in both cities. She has seen things on ground for both cities. So yeah, she is 90% right. .

she has seen what things on ground ....
Someone who has never left her confines of OSU

rvp2018:
You're better than Nigeria but Kenya is far ahead in infrastructure and related development.That one is self evident.You don't need data to know that a country is developed.There is NO dispute that Accra is baby compared to Nairobi.As for language..no biggie.. Kenyans are trilingual.. nearly everyone know their tribal language, Swahili and English..that is pretty awesome.. Ghana you're struggling with two languages

just nonsense after nonse


Your country will never be able to build more infrastructure than Ghana especially when Ghana spends double then amount your country spend on infrastructure development...
13 billion dollars for Ghana while Kenya spends 7 billion dollars..

Ghana has almost 60 languages, popular among them are Ga,Twi, Fante, EWE, Dagarti and etc depending on where you are, a person will most like be able to speak 3 of them in addition to English and sometimes French
