PetroDolla2020: Tarbon of Ghana? Who are the Tarbons in Ghana? Where can they be found!
The Tabons are in Ga mashie, the Jamestown area. They're Brazilian slave descendants who were accepted by the Ga to live amongst them. Azumah Nelson is a famous Tabon. They've been absorbed into Ga/Ghanaian community.
Emibolt: It doesnt matter how high the land is from the ocean. What matters is dat the opening of the pipe for the inlet will twice the outlet. Creating a reverse tumbling waves of water back into the sea, compared to its usually tumbling effect which results to more water on the surface of the land (causing flood). And also the space for the project can never be available for swimming to avoid human casualties due to the tumbling effect in the water. Though, the level of the ocean bank can be increased a little bit to help the water from overflowing too.
Is this your own creation? Or this's a machine that's already available?
Emibolt: Someone above me said, where there is an island there should be flooding.
Your government knowing the island is important to them, tourists and their high class citizens who pump money into the island should atleast build drainage systems. A million plus pipework beneath the island's banks and big drainage pipes will really help curtail flooding if not preventing it kpatakpata.
The pipeworks can work as a reverse system, where the water in high current run into and upwards in the pipes and back into the ocean. Check the image below. Government should look into helping the name Nigeria even if they dont help the citizens. Also our students should be the ones planning on how to develop the country more if there was a good leader, but there are all at home not even thinking of their future. Anyways vote PETER OBI dat might look into developmental ideas for his students.
How high is the land surface from the ocean water level? So that whatever water enters through your pipe can stay in the ocean and not climb unto the land?
This is a Ghanaian school. Ghana has lots of well endowed women, her looks, dressing is normal, no one would bother to "sexualise" her. Nigerians talk too much
Richsteemit: Chaii Omo this girl fineoooo. I can spend my live savings on this girl. I can even sell my family house to marry this girl. . Omo see beauty. My dream to marry a beautiful woman will come true. I finally know why some niggas simp. We know all girls are useless but we go still manage them
Proudlyomonna: I was in Ghana all through the ending of 2020 and last year,oga there's nothing much to Ghana don't be decieved,yes they have done immensely well in power sector but I bet you an average Ghanian will choose to stay in Nija and hustle that Ghana Na the useless apc govt just cast Nija finish asin them don yeye Nigeria.
I'm Ghanaian. I agree Nigeria trump's Ghana with better infrastructure, cheaper cost of stuff, generosity, wide variety of stuff etc. Ghana with all our resources, decent population/country, size, peace etc etc, we should be doing WAYYY BETTER than we're doing now.
Our leaders here celebrate mediocrity, most don't have eyes for beauty etc etc. The POSITIVE for Ghana is that we can EASILY turn our situation around, because of the positives I mentioned above. In fact we were the first country to meet the UN development goal of halving extreme poverty. Imagine if we did more
A little money pumped into the Ghanaian economy goes FARTHER and accomplishes lots of stuff than same money would do in say Nigeria, to tell you the advantages we can enjoy if our leaders were more ambitious
Proudlyomonna: Are we talking about the same Ghana I stayed for a year plus or another one? Grown fire
You stayed for a year plus when? Even if Ghana's done just one percent GROWTH from her hungry Ghana must go days, so far as there's growth, it's attractive enough to lure in economic migrants
planetE: we gather dey the same shoe. 5 years course don turn to 8 years. me don give up for naija public varsities. I dey Spintex road Ghana now, nah bombing my NIGGAS dey teach me
You're in another man's country committing an illegality and spoiling the name of both Nigeria and your host country? And you're not ashamed to be saying it here? Continue
Kinematics: I don't need to Google what I know is a fat lie.
That's a tales by moonlight story. Anybody can claim anything. I know if you go to most countries you'll hear their own claim, just like we have in Nigeria. Some will say the Europeans first landed in Lagos, some will say no it was in escravos, others will say no, it was in Bonny and some will say it's a lie it was in Calabar.
No one true story...
The Elmina one is INCONTROVERTIBLE FACT. it's a WORLD HERITAGE SITE for God's sake. HISTORY BOOKS spoke of this fact before the advent of the internet. Even Vasco Da Gama was in Elmina on his way to the southern tip of Africa. The Portuguese bypassed the Senegal's etc and built the "dungeon" in then Gold Coast because it had plentiful gold, they met "reasonable" people etc etc
Are you not the same ekinematics on youtube channels who's anti Ghana? I don't expect you to acknowledge any Ghana "win"
Multiplier7: Well...you sited Sokoto tragedy only...so i gave you the Cape Coast tragedy.
Site another, i promise to give double. Deal
Nigeria is the Giant of Africa. Take it or leave it. And please don't let Buhari change mind from giviñg Ghana Gas as soon as the Nigeria - Morocco gas pipeline commences. Don't bite the finger that feeds you. You should give that man some respect.
The West Africa gas is a consortium of companies from all 4 beneficiary countries Nigeria, Benin, Togo, Ghana. Ghana owns 16.3 %, Benin and Togo 2 % each and Nigeria the rest of the percentage.
Kinematics: The highlighted is simply for tuorism. Ghana has preserved her pre colonial sites better than most continental west African countries. Not everyone is happy making money from a shameful past.
I'm hearing for the first time that Elmina slave dungeon is the first structure built by the Europeans in Africa. I know countries like Morocco, Gambia, Cape Verde, Senegal, Tunisia, Libya, Algeria and Egypt are closer to Europe geographically than Ghana, so it's very likely Europeans got to these places before other parts of Africa. So I wonder where you are getting your Elmina story from..
Also don't forget that parts of Spain is in Africa, that's Ceuta and Melilla, Morocco and Spain has been intermingling with each other even before slavery.
I'm sure you've googled Elmina castle's veracity by now. It's one of the oldest European built structures outside Europe, the oldest European built structure in subsaharan Africa. It was built in 1482 by the Portuguese, and it's still surviving up till now. It's a world heritage site.
Kinematics: They are somewhat slower compared to Nigerians, less aggressive, easily satisfied and barely see things beyond their immediate environment. Do you know that one of the reasons you have more African Americans with Nigerian DNA as compared to Ghana where you have more Caribbeans with Ghanaian DNA? Its because even the whites noticed that people from Nigeria/Cameroon were more resilient, more aggressive, more difficult to control, hence they sent them to region with "harsher climate" as a way of punishment etc to till the soil there.
Hence today you have more of AAs with Nigerian and Cameroon-Congo DNA.
. I've been noticing the American/Nigerian, Ghanaian/Carribean difference in the African diaspora. Thanks for the explanation. In Suriname for example I hear there's a majority Akan/Ghana African diaspora there, because most of the enslaved Africans were from Ghana.
Ghana also has the highest number of slave forts/dungeons in Africa; about 33 I think, so there's a lot of preserved "slave history" here.
The first European structure to be built on the African continent The Elmina slave dungeon is also in Ghana
PANAFEST and Emancipation Day, 2 strong African diaspora tourism initiatives instituted during Rawlings' regime also bring/brought in significant African diaspora tourists in the past. Etc etc. There's a solid reason for Ghana's tourism numbers

"...they barely see things beyond their immediate environment." Well I won't dispute that too much. But Ivory Coast is made up of about 40% Akan/Agni people that originally came from Ghana. To tell you how far their influence went. Same influence extends all over Ghana into Togo etc. The Ghanaian shoe makers/hustlers of the Ghana must go era were majorly hardworking Asante etc
The Asante were some of the earliest people to venture into the Japans etc, some of the first people to open African-owned markets/businesses in America etc
So they venture out too, but not on the scale of the Igbos etc just like you're saying.
Kinematics: 1. Your culture makes you who you are. The Ashantis who are the majority in Ghana are naturally laid back people. I won't call them lazy, but they are just people with little ambition. Ashanti culture influences the whole of Ghana. Our cultural values and beliefs influences our way of life, Nigeria is a battle ground for cultural superiority contest.
2. Having a better educational system does not guaranty that you'll produce the most educated people or the best. France may have the best healthcare system in the world, but that does not mean they produce the best physicians or their health services are the best.
3. Fulanis are not indigenous to Ghana. The majority of Ghanaians live in the Southern part and the South controls the affairs of the country. Everything Ghana is Accra and Accra is in the deep south, so Fulani have little or no foothold in Ghana.
4. Passport ranking is a thing of diplomatic choice not a thing of must. North Korea has alienated itself from the majority of the world, but China and Russia still remain their greatest friends. It's a thing of choice.
5. Currency?? I no go talk put here. You need to learn economics from scratch, because it's obvious you have no knowledge in this area.
6. Tourism is not by force, not every country see tourism as a lucrative business. For example Japan is one of the greatest countries in the world today, it made it's name via other means not tuorism.
I'm not saying you ain't correct in some of your assertions, but next time when comparing put down the positives and negatives of both countries. For instance, just because Norway is a peaceful country with so many of it's institutions working perfectly does not mean that Norway is greater than the USA.
The Asantes are laid back people? Maybe by Nigeria standards, but the Asantes are like the Igbo of Ghana. Very cultural, very hardworking, very enterprising, very eloquent, very imaginative etc.
Our version of Inosson is Kantanka Motors, ran by an Asante. Our music, movie industry etc are ran by the Asante. They're the most prolific people in Ghana, just a tad bit "slower" than the Igbo, Hausa etc. Read up on the Asante empire
SojWORLDWIDE: A nation that is bereft of history is bound to grope in the dark like Nigeria is gropping in darkness today.
Unknown to sons and daughters that made up the entity called Nigeria today, our complexities of problems emanated from our forefathers, who, for the sake of greed, self and ethnic interest sold out our birthrights for a plate of pottage and their children's children are now paying the price of what they knew nothing about. SOJ WORLDWIDE http://(www.sojworldnews.com) went into the archives to bring out the foundation of our predicaments for all of us who are not privy to the historical backgrounds of our problems. If our forefathers had known that their political schemings, manipulations will put their unborn generations into these bloodbaths, may be, they would have had a rethink.. Some of us were told about the history of cat and mouse friendships between Chief Obafemi Awolowo and Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe but we never knew to what extent. It is indeed very instructive present political gladiators think twice about what they do today because it will become history tomorrow.
Think of what you are sowing today because of your unborn generations. Here is the affirmation of how we became slaves in our fatherland. Enjoy the full story: "WHO handed over Nigeria to Fulani? Someone said “FULANI is Yoruba’s number one enemies and that the British handed over Nigeria to them.” This is not the truth. The British did not hand over Nigeria to the Fulani. Parliamentary elections were held in Nigeria on 12 December 1959. The results was hung parliament with no clear majority to form a Government. Nnamdi Azikiwe's (Zik) National Council of Nigeria and Cameroon (NCNC) came first with 2,594,577 to get 81 seats.
Chief Obafemi Awolowo Action Group (AG) came second with 1992,364 votes to get 73 seats. However, the Ahmadu Bello’s Northern People’s Congress (NPC) came a distant third with 1,922,179 votes to get 134 of the 312 seat in the House of Representatives despite getting less public votes. The above major political parties in the election did not get enough numbers of the seat to form a government, an alliance had to be formed to determine who would rule. It was a no brainer that Zik’s NCNC and Awolowo’s Action Group should make Coalition Government as they came first and second respectively. Awolowo, then humbled himself and volunteered to be Deputy Prime Minister or Finance Minister in a coalition government with Zik as the Prime Minister.
This was because the Zik’s NCNC party had more public votes and seats then the Awolowo,s Action Group. Zik’s invited Awolowo’s team to Asaba, the gateway between the Yoruba’s Western Region and the Igbo’s Eastern Region to hold coalition talks. The talk was a clever ruse to keep Action Groups hopes high so that Action Group would be kept distracted from meeting with other minor parties for talks including: Northern Election Progressive Union (NEPU) with 8 seats; Mobolaji Grand Alliance (MGA) with 6 seats Igala Union (IU) with 4 seats, Independent Candidates with 4 seats ; Igbira Tribal Union (ITU) with 4 seats and the Niger Delta Congress (NGC) with 1 seat. Whilst the Action Group team was waiting in Asaba for a meeting with Nnamdi Azikiwe and the NCNC had gone up north and clinched the deal with Ahmadu Bello on forming a coalition government with the NPC. Tafawa Balewa, a Fulani, would be the Prime Minister of Nigeria while Zik would be the figurehead Governor- General. Even the President of Ghana, Kwame Nkrumah was shocked.

Op stop being petty. If Fulani Ahmadu Bello was capable of garnering 1,922,179 votes, just about 70,000 votes shy of Obafemi's votes, and 134 seats, more than Obafemi's 73 seats, what makes you think he wouldn't have clinched the number one position, or EASILY beat Obafemi to the second position giving some different circumstances?
And had Zik even chosen Obafemi instead of Ahmadu Bello for the coalition government, there's no guarantee that Nigeria wouldn't be going through the problems it's going through now.
Nigerians are a difficult people to govern, there's lots of greed in the land, the oil money is fueling lots of corruption, there're ritual murders etc etc
There are Vikings, Vandals etc, especially in the all-male halls, blocks, but what they do is mostly "charging"/ singing, dancing etc. Sometimes they clash with rival halls and pelt each other with stones.
valnino: I put her brothers number there because we contacted him to make arrangement for her sister to come back but he told us that he is broke and we can't harbor the girl for long. We intend taking her to police station.
You can contact the Nigerian high commission, or any Nigeria church around for assistance. Mfmm, and the other churches have branches around
I've seen certain neighborhood street walks that have been removed to prevent people from walking through them and rather redirected pedestrain traffic around the community.
Certain neighborhood just don't want all kind of characters using their neighborhood...example AU village and Adabraka ...where they've remove the sidewalks in the acres but the roads around the acres have side walks. The streets are wide enough for 3 cars, so obviously it's not narrow. Not all streets need to have side walks
Just40: yeah, there are areas where jail walking ain't allowed and it's a good thing. I've come across them even in London and New York
Jay walking not jail walking. And it doesn't mean not walking in the location at all. It means not crossing the road anyhow, example crossing the road anyhow near a zebra crossing instead of using it. People can walk in the locations you mentioned, and the narrow streets NEED sidewalks
This is an exclusive coverage of Accra the capital city of Ghana and Nigeria's oil rich city of Port Harcourt.
Watch the video and tell us which is more beautiful
Lalasticlala
I suspect you're from Port Harcourt. This's a disrespectful thing you're doing. Comparing your c class of a city to a capital city. What's your problem?
Just40: the gutters are covered for most parts and walking is not permitted in the area apart from on the outer ring roads
As you can see here... Apart from the front of certain house with tiny and shallow colonial era drains that do not need covering.. all the drains are covered with sideways for pedestrian.
Walking is not permitted in certain parts? Me what I always say is already built-up areas like these with narrow streets, no sidewalks etc, if people's fence walls etc have to be broken to make way for sidewalks, if even on only one side of the street, so be it. The beauty, order, convenience, ease of commute etc that sidewalks bring to a space would be very beneficial
When you look at many of our Kumasi suburbs with their narrow streets and no sidewalks for example, no matter the edifices/good quality roads in these areas, I still find them lacking in true beauty
