Why do you start some of these topics? where do you get your statistics from? very uneducated stats... you hear a few of your colleagues talking about real estate in Ghana and you suddenly believe the whole of Ghana is owned by Nigerians? are you for real?

Ghana is a nation of 25 million people a small nation by comparison to Nigeria and in other aspects... land mass, cultural diversity, languages spoken etc. Still it doesn't give license to post unsubstantiated facts like 50% of real estate in Ghana is owned by Nigerians. stop the bull shit.

Also Lagos which compares to Ghana in population is 75% OF Ghana's GDP. Then again all these are stats which are mostly grossly over represented or under represented. These rating companies no why they do so. I never trust any statistics which does not translate into real impact on the ground. You can glory in numbers but if you are wise, you will weep for the state of affairs in your Naija and if you have empathy for others, extend your weeping to cover Ghana and other nations.

It's embarrassing.

AND JOHHNY ORLANDO I CERTAINLY KNOW HIM QUITE WELL ( HE KINDA DATED MY MUM).
NIGERIANS SHOULD BE GRATEFUL TO GHANAIANS AND STOP THIS UNGRATEFUL SLANDERING

I will contribute at a later time but I am likely to debunk the notion that jelousy is insecurity,I will attempt to define the two terms and expanciate from there, again like others i will bring in God for though God does not have a sexual relationship with us,he does have a larger contextual love relationship towards us within which w e humans are able to exhibit romantic love which should stem from true love

used to do it very often when i wasn't married still do it though what's the deal? most people today fear to be all by themselves hence make it seem like a taboo

you guys are surprising me, the amount produced is not the same as earning,the earnings you get is just the taxes on the amount produced which realistically and on a highly optimistic side will be about 30% of that figure if its true

about 12 years ago when i was in college,i had a Nigerian female friend Bimpe who seemed crazy about his church and founder unitl i decided to take a closer look then i realized its all about pastor chris chris,chris, big no no, having attended some bible school and been spirit filled tongue talking christian its apparent to me this is people worship, how can one man be such a center of attention

what is this hugely embarrasing

no two countries will ever be the same am a proud ghanaian i say leave nigeria alone, they are unique in their own larger than life way so ghana is unique in its own globally acknowledged model country way. all are blessed by the lord and for the lord

Dede1:

When will these goofy individuals leave Igbo people out of their tribal madness in Nigeria? First of all, Dr. Kofi Abrefo Busia became Ghana Prime Minister on October 1, 1969. The Alliance Compliance Order did not come until Busia was sworn-in on October 1, 1969. One wonders where Dr Olaniyi got the drift that Ndigbo were allowed to stay in Ghana while the Yoruba were deported which led him/her to conclude that Yoruba were more adversely affected than Igbo.

All Africans of non-Ghanaian citizen were affected by the Alliance Compliance Order of 1969. The bulk of Nigerian deported from Ghana peaked after the civil war in January 1970.

you seem to have some additional insight can you please post your academic references as well or any well meaning reference for that matter

[quote author=saxywale]I got this from an elderly Nigerian. He said a lot of Nigerians of the ogbomosho stock were deported circa 1967-70. Most of them were born in Ghana and had no relations with Nigeria. They only had Nigerian names and most of them knew their parents and grandparents migrated from somewhere called ogbomosho in Nigeria. Was told they had it tough integrating with the Nigerian born locals.[/quote

Well that might not be the whole story so i think it will be informative to read the link posted by the second poster on the subject

I assume bot were linked to economic reasons, that is the natives complaining about the guests taking their means of living abi?

And I also assume that in both cases the other's economy was doing relatively well or at least relative favorable opportunity than the other hence the migration of one group into another country abi?

[color=#990000][/color]
IS IT TRUE GHANA STARTED THIS GET OUT OF OUR COUNTRY THING? IT SEEMS MANY NIGERIANS DON'T KNOW THIS AND WE TEASE GHANAIANS WITH THIS BUT APPARENTLY THEY DID IT FIRST. IF SO WHY DO THEY NOT TAG US WITH IT AS WE HAVE TAGGED THEM WITH IT?

medjai:

I don't know which was the worse team - Ghana or Botswana. Very poor display from both sides.

what poor game did you notice the pace of the game especially in the first half, read proper expert opinions.

Jarus:

Since Naija is not going, I will support CIV. They have done enough to win this tournament. They parade the most intimidating array of stars in Africa but they have been under-achieving since their resurgence some 6 years ago after their football experienced a lull for 10 years. They had been the favourites in the last 3 editions but disappointingly crashed out in Final, semi and Q/F in the 2006, 2008 and 2010 editions. If they don't win this one, maybe they still have another opportunity in 2013, after which they can forget about it, as they are currently in their peak.

Their players are also committed to their NT despite being bigger boys than our lack lustre boys. I will fully support the Elephants.

As for Ghana, I see them being another strong contender, but I will never support them for obvious reason.

Viva elephants!!!

Did you know that around 45% of ivorians are Akans? Am sure you know Akans are the majority of Ghanaians

ebere1712:

The poster its not completely wrong. It was the mostly Yoruba states that executed the Ghana must go disgrace. Ghanaians living in eastern and northern states (though considerably less in population) weren't treated as bad. Nevertheless, I still wonder what triggered such event.

The event was a retarliation to what Ghana had early done under the Acheampong government when Ghana was relatively good economically and Ghanaians complained that Nigerians had taken their jobs so you see before Ghana must go there was Nigeria must go this has been the tension between us. I do not think its really serious now but to think that ondo and kwara governments intiated a ghana must go recently is really backwards and uncivilized of them

i have checked the growth figures for Nigeria against its GDP and Ghana's 90 bill $ economy at the end of 2011 will be a fourth or 25% of Nigeria's economy, not bad for a 25million populace eh?

that 23 % figure has actually been revised upwards to around 33% for both the first and second quaters of 2011 so it looks like the 70 billion dollar economy (GDP:PPP) will increase by around 30% by the end of the year taking ghana's economy to around 90 billion $ in Gdp which will be about a fifth or 20% of Nigeria's economy

[b][/b][color=#990000][/color]

Ghanaian players Tony Baffoe and Tony Yeboah paved the way for Okacha and others to play in the bundisliga. They deserve accolades Kudos. Also most English football commentators will tell you Drogba is a watered down version of Tony Yeboah. H e was a great striker wish Asamoah Gyan can develop into a Tony, Should that happen Ghana will be well prepared to win the world cup

I am greatly buffled myself as to why Sub saharan African governments will support the libyan rebels who are killing and maltreating black Africans. The global disrespect for black life means such maltreatment of black Africans in Libya will be swept under the carpet. And yes our leaders not a single one of them is bold enough to condem this and quickly rush to endorse them but oh the time has come and the time is now that thesethings will sieze.

Depilot:

It was a joke and the dude the comment was directed to also took it well. So, I beg go somewhere before I take off my belt.

Well then pardon my misconstrusion,

Depilot:

Let me go get my Ghana must go bag
@Toaskarity, ChallieY!
Dude, don't you guys have a ghanaian website or forum? why are you here smelling our sweaty balls? I beg go find something else to do and allow Nigerians to discuss serious issues.
What about ken ken and smelly fried oku-eko fish?

Am really amazed at your comments, for someone whose trade mark reads Africa United?

Africans Wrote the Bible




The Africans Who Wrote The Bible: Ancient Secrets Africa and Christianity Have Never Told






Judaism is the African way of life. Judaism was the religion developed in Africa by African people. It was adopted and adapted in a similar fashion to the Yoruba Orisha worship (Vodoun, Santeria, Lacumi, Condomble, etc) and is still being co-opted and altered by non-Africans today. To speak of an African influence on Judaism is like speaking of an African influence on Orisha Worship. It is not an African influence. It is still African and represents an African way of life.



Along with Cheikh Anta Diop, Alex Darkwah also traces Ancient Egypt to geographical Africa. Darkwah has DNA on his side; whereas, Diop used archeological artifacts, culture, and documentary text to prove his research. He was still challenged by "Europe" and his findings were labeled "untrue" by the scientific world. Darkwah proves that Africans wrote the Bible even though your personal "King James" Version of the Bible may have pages laced with White Greek characters and distributed throughout the world. I thought that the following excerpts were extremely interesting. A website visitor suggested that I read the Darkwah's book. Thanks to the website reader who suggested that I limit my research to Sub-Saharan Africa. You’ve started a greater quest to delve deeper into Europe's concealment of our history and to shed more light on how the global world exists in its current state.



The word Israel itself is an Akan word (Ghana). Darkwah points to the story of Jacob in Genesis 32:24-29, where the angel renames Jacob calling him Asrae or the European version, Israel. Asrae, Darkwah declares, is not the name of a nation, but instead means "the first one who visited."



According to Darkwah, if you as a Christian question the Bible, you were led by your pastor to believe that you were blaspheming God. Here there is a faith versus reasoning quarrel. Now he has been able to reason into faith. Originally, he just had faith. But, as he learned more, he began to reason himself into faith.



It is almost impossible to understand the significance of many Old Testament events and themes apart from the geographical, cultural, and historical situation that existed during the Old Testament times. First of all, the name “Africa” was given to the Continent by Romans. Africa was also called Kemet, Libya, Ortegia, Corphye, Egypt, Ethiopia and/or Sedan, Olympia, Hesperia, Oceania, and Ta-Merry. The ancient name for Africa was “Akebu-Lan” (mother of mankind) or “Garden of Eden.” This name was used by the Moors, Nubians, Numidians, Khart-Hadddans (Carthaginians), and Ethiopians. Genesis 10:6-20 describes the descendants of Ham as being located in North Africa, Central Africa and in parts of southern Asia. Psalm 105:23 mentions the "Land of Ham" in Egypt, and Psalm 78:51 connect the "tents of Ham" with Egypt. In Genesis 10, Nimrod, son of Cush (whose name means "black", founded a civilization in Mesopotamia. In Genesis 11, Abraham was from Ur of the Chaldees, a land whose earliest inhabitants included blacks.



Ethiopia and Egypt are mentioned more than any other countries in the Bible. Ethiopia is known in the Bible as Cush. Egypt is known as Mizraim. Mizraim and Cush are two sons of Ham. Mizraim is translated--Egypt and Cush Ethiopia. Many readers of this website have contacted me to argue that Egypt is a land of White people. They write, I know your view is common among African American studies-types, but it doesn't seem to be borne out by historical record. The pharaohs and their priests were certainly not Black. Here goes faith vs. reasoning again. The Romans didn't get to Egypt until 300 BC. We are talking 6000 years before that. There weren't any white people present before the Rome invasion. The original Christianity of Egypt was established by the apostle Mark in AD 42 in Ethiopia (Coptic Church--Coptic Orthodox Christianity). We have been told Christianity came from Rome. Does everything come from Europe? That is what we have led to believe.



LAND OF THE BLACKS--LAND OF THE BIBLE: Ancient Egypt was known indigenously as Kemet (Land of the Blacks). Ancient Egyptians have pinpointed their own ancestral origins to Mount Rwenzori Range in the east African cradle, otherwise known as "Mountains of the Moon." Some accounts state Egyptian civilization came out of Ethiopia, which as a term was used to designate the land south of Egypt (the Upper Nile Valley), or alternatively used to refer to the entire African continent. Chronologically, Egypt’s southern neighbor Nubia, which had its own distinct civilization, was the Nile Valley predecessor.



Jews believe they are God’s Chosen People because of a theological idea the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (known in Biblical times as Israelites, later known as Jews) are the chosen people. It comes from the book of Genesis in which God chooses Abraham and his descendants for a unique covenant. The covenant involved certain obligations on the part of the people and promised certain things on the part of God. European Jews believe this covenant is still in effect today—Jews are still a "chosen people." It may also answer the question why the Jews have been classified White, even with their kinky-bushy hair, swarthy skin, and broadened noses.
The main points of his book are:

Americans and Europeans assume that the Bible is about them, but the Bible is about my ancient ancestors and me…, Alex Darkwah

Modern-day Jews see the Bible as a record of their history because the King James Bible is centered on the history of Israel.

The Jewish people of Europe and America still carry African Tribal names. They carry the names of their ancestors who were Africans.

Statistically, the Lemba people from Southeast Africa are more Jewish than European Jews. In a particular Lemba Clan known as the Buba Clan, 53 percent of the males carry the unique DNA signature of Jewish priests. Males form the Lemba Tribe carry a higher incidence of the Jewish priestly DNA signature than the European and American Jewish population.

When the police have the fingerprints of a wanted man, they know the man whose prints match. The same thing can be said here.

The early Roman Catholic Church portrayed Jesus and his mother in the original Black images of the Jewish people at that time--The Black Madonna. What African tribe were they from?

The time period of the early Catholic Church is closer to the Jews leaving Africa and going to Europe than the Renaissance Painters who painted Jesus White.

What Europe did not count on was that Africans would still know their past.



Darkwah states that ancient Egypt was geographically in Africa and that so called European experts do not know the Ancient Egyptian story because they are not familiar with African tribal names. They do not have the linguistic and cultural backgrounds to identify Egyptian names and have simply transposed the African names of people and places in Ancient Egyptian history into European languages to make it possible for them to claim expertise. Darkwah traces the ancient past of African tribes from the Middle East through Ancient Egypt to inner Africa. He reveals the African tribe that historians gave the fictitious names the Sumerians, Akkadians, and the African Tribes that were the Ancient Egyptians.



Africans are the indigenous Native Hebrews (Jews). The greatest secret of Africa has never been told, and Christian Europe has been seeking to conceal for the past two thousand years is the African origin of the concepts, doctrines, sacramental practices of religion, and the documents that became the foundations of Christianity in Europe. Did you know that the names of Abraham, Isaac, Esau, and Jacob were all derived from African tribal words and names? Did you know that the earliest “Hebrew” name for God, Adonai, was derived from an African tribal word? Did you know that other name of God, Yahweh, was derived from an African tribal God? , Did you know that the names of the authors of the Old Testament are not “Hebrew” or “Jewish” names, but transposed African tribal names? Christian Europe has never known these because it has never known the African linguistic and cultural side of the biblical story.



The indigenous African tribal name of the most popular Ancient Egyptian king the west was Tutu Ankoma—not Tutankhamun. Not only do we know the indigenous African tribal name of this Ancient Egyptian king, but we also know where the modern dynasty of his ancient dynasty is today. We know in Africa that the Ancient Egyptian king who built the middle pyramid in Giza was called Akufu and not Khufu as the experts have told us. We also know that his two sons completed the procession of pyramids and placed a lion in the front of the procession. These sons were Dade Afre and not Djedefra as the experts transposed this name; and his brother was Ochere Afre and not Chephren as the experts have told us. The modern dynasty of these ancient kings is the Akuapem Dynasty that can be found today in the Eastern Region of Ghana. Conservatives, liberals, and all in between can go to check these people out and verify the royal names among these people.



The book is about the Africans who wrote the Bible as well as Ancient Egypt. It is the untold story of the African tribes that were the Ancient Egyptians. It is the untold story of the people from these African tribes that left Ancient Egypt for it to become the biblical Exodus. It is about the untold story of these people that later went to Europe to become the Jews and Hebrews. It is about untold story of the Africans who actually wrote the documents of the Bible before Afrim (Jewish) scholars translated these documents for the Greeks in Ancient Egypt and claimed that their people in Israel wrote those documents.



We in Africa even know the indigenous African tribal name of the people of the Exodus before they went to Europe to become the Jews and Hebrews. A review of a DNA study of Jewish people African tribes discovered one of the African tribes from which some of the people of the Exodus originated. Check it out in the New York Times of May 9, 1999. What does this prove? It proves the Ancient Egyptian and biblical stories were all Black people’s stories.



The Ancient Egyptians were Black people and their modern descendants are alive and well in Africa. Real evidence of the modern descendants of the Ancient Egyptians in the tribes of Africa and the language and culture these people left behind in Ancient Egypt is the most powerful evidence there is about the Black racial origin of the Ancient Egyptians.



In the 1960's and 1970's there were Jewish scholars who were secretly traveling around Africa researching African Tribes to find out from which tribe they belonged. They studied the Akan Religion of the Asante people to find out the similarities between Judaism and Christianity. The word Israel was derived from an African Tribal meaning. Most "Jewish" people still carry their African Tribal names of origin.



The Sinai peninsula is clearly in Africa and is where the Israelites claim to receive their oral and written law. Geologically speaking all of the adjacent Arabian peninsula clear up to Syria is part of the African continent. The Great Rift Valley extends from Mozambique to Syria. The continental drift of tectonics shows the Arabian plate breaking off from the continent and colliding into the Asian plate to create the mountain ranges of Turkey and Armenia (University of Moscow).

POLITICAL PALACE: Original Hebrews Were Black

(Submitted by: R. Mosley)

To Judah, B Real & the rest of my already racially enlightened Brothers & Sisters in this forum, I just want to warn you that most so-called White Jews with genuine Hebrew bloodlines are not ready to accept neither the fact that their Hebrew origins/bloodlines are Black, nor the fact that all of Mankind descended from the so-called Negroid Race.

I once had a Jewish online "friend" that was just the sweetest thing this side of Heaven until I hit him with the news that his curly hair & dusky features were genetic indicators of his Negroid decent. He freaked out on me in such an ugly fashion that it reminded me of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde.

You see the stigma attached to being Black is so unpalatable for some folks that it causes them to spazz. But, according to Jim Crow, Willy Lynch, the government, the Catholic Church, European standards, etc, despite appearances to the contrary caused by recessive genes, if there is one drop of Black blood in your lineage you are considered Black.

Elaborate caste systems were created by "society" for mulattoes, quadroons, octoroons, (Jews), etc. Which explains why so many people of color are still stuck, "color struck" in their slave mentalities today. Light vs. darker complexions meant certain privileges.

But Negroid Jewish ancestry has been a well-known, documented, & accepted fact among educated Caucasians for centuries. Famed scholars, historians, philosophers, scientists, archaeologists, have been known to refer to Jews as sand niggers, mongrels, & other semi Negroid terms.

Such mentality helped to justify their indentured enslavement/employment and use as tax collectors, accountants, bankers, money lenders, overseers, financial watch dogs, slum landlords, foremen, etc to keep track of money for the conquering elite, which included the Romans, then much later & now, the British.

Which is why Austrian born Hitler had little problem victimizing them as he masterminded the German Revolution known as the Holocaust. The German people were sick of working for slave wages in their own highly industrialized nation under the leadership of Jewish watchdogs while their resources were being commandeered & pocketed by the British. Since they couldn't reach the Brits, (as usual) they attacked the emissaries (overseers).

Over the centuries, due to the race mixing among the Pharisees & Sadducees with the conquering Romans & Asiatic peoples the bloodlines & semi-Negroid (mongrel/chop suey) appearances of the Hebrews & Arabs evolved to become what we see today.

By polite social standards, Yeshua was considered a Black bastard…a militant rebel, of lowly birth that did not meet the social nor political criteria required to be The Messiah.

I guess that when you have been raised to feel smugly & condescendingly superior to someone not even considered HUE-MAN then find yourself in the same boat it is rather mind blowing. When folks prefer to live in a state of denial, their minds are reprobated & they will not be moved. They will twist your words, intentionally take things out of context, and vilify you in an effort to hold onto their delusions of superiority rather than embrace the Black Man as "brother", or equal. Cain will continue to destroy Abel until God's day of reckoning.

When asked by Whites what difference does it make whether Jesus was black or White, I simply smile & reply, If it doesn't make any difference, why did you make Him white? Can YOU handle the Truth?

The Physical Appearance of Ancient Israel

bisiaet:

In reality am not surprise of Ghanian yelling and blablabla because they are so myopic and so insennsitive in everything, turning football game as if it is a means of fighting war or show a stenght of contention between them and Nigeria.

Let them go by record what is it that they have done that is so outstanding or no one has never donebefore??. I was in UK recently and I was watching OBE a Ghanian tv station in London where they organised a kind of forum just because of this friendly match what really angers me is the comment of the interviewer saying and I quote " See our naonal team captain is here from US to attend this organise talk or forum and No Nigeria player is here because we Ghanians are discipline" it was then I know understand how slow Ghanians are. You organised a silly and senseless meeting or talk for just a friendly match and because Nigeria players are not their means they are not discipline I wonder who send them such discussion or talk in the first place? And how does their silly discusion or forum concern Nigeria player? They are not organising on how Africa would win world cup but busy as per friendly nonsense.

I have no word to qualify them(Ghanians) their pooh mouth is really suffering from dirrhoea they should go and see doctor because football is a game not war or killers point. So let them get their Bottom up and reason like a normal person and shut a hell of their blablabla mouth and be sensitive.


I bet if the match was played they would have be shock I knew they will not beat eagle because their mouth was too much and that will fall them down and be disgrace but the new date has be fix let see how they bury their head and not eagle.

YOUR ANALYSIS IS WACK, HOW DO YOU INFER A PRESUMPTION TO DISCIPLINE AS SLOW THINKING? YOUR REASONING IS OFF, BUT HEY I GUES YOU AND THOSE WHO ADORE YOU ARE ENTITLED TO THAT

its this kind of unlearned minds that upsets me, intellectually inept and unresearching minds. i have been on this site for long and i have noticed the changing attitudes of some nigerians towards ghanaians in a more respectful and tolerant manner, i certainly welcome that not yours

yem66:

yov are right! It started way back immeadiately after our independence and very close with theirs, black star wanted to rule w.africa, then we discovered oil, we became popular in the west via football.,.then when kongi collected the nobel laureate.notwithstanding Achebe's Things Fall Apart couldnt be rivaled, the Emegialis,then kanus,okochas,obagoal etc all came out .how many from ghana?ave u heard about bishop oyedepo's church annexed by bishop , ?fgn waded in but , finally NOLLYWOOD.THE TRUTH GHANA HAS ALWAYS BEEN LIVING UNDER NIGERIA'S SHADOW.

Hey Ghana never lives under anyones shadow, Do you know anything about the glorious history of the AKan of Ghana? Go and do your reasearch and find out about the great people in acient Egypt and see which tribes of people features there big time, the great kings of Egypt KUFU, AKENTEN ETC ARE ANCESTORS OF PRESENT DAY AKAN PEOPLE OF GHANA. IF YOU KNOW YOUR HISTORY, PRESENT AND FUTURE, WHY WOULD YOU BE LIVING IN ANYONE'S SHADOW? STOP THIS STUPID TALK.

chrisvicch:



Thank you so much. Even on nairaland and most of our newspapers, you will see that most people are always happy when a governor or person of high status said he/she will do something. Always words but no actions. Each election you will hear promise upon promise but at the end no action.

I would rather prefer to be seen at the bottom of the table but with more actions to show for it. What shall it profit Nigerians when we gain the whole marks but loses the credibility to succeed with the ideas.

BABE!:

They've started with their useless ranks again!   Silly survey! I'm sure the demographics and samples were biased.

What's the use of attaining high ranks when there's NOTHING to show for it?!  

I know some people are still gonna rejoice and bask in the so called "victory".  

Our president is handsome-- Has that lowered the price of kerosene in the  market?

Our Language(s) is/are sexy-- Who cares?

We are innovative -- Who cares about innovation? Who can't think of new ideas? Na innovation we won chop? EXECUTE and let's see na. mscheww.

Ah you two have said it all, I definately concur

kabna:

ah we have played england at wembley the only african team to do so, why do we need you to raise our footballing profiling, it is you who is using us for your profiling

I meant the only black african team to play england at wembley

kizito96:

Ghana is using Nigeria to hype their profile

ah we have played england at wembley the only african team to do so, why do we need you to raise our footballing profiling, it is you who is using us for your profiling
