and everyone called chief in this Nigeria is a major sponsor of either a car snatching ring, boko haram, or some fraud. why why why....why nigeria...revolution now!

every aspect of the Nigerian society is corrupt, criminal, evil and cancerous. imagine a whole university running programs in credit card fraud. just imagine.

If they call your father Chief in this Nigeria then it means he is either a killer, ritualist, corrupt, or support dome kind of criminal oil deal or even support Boko Haram. The doc,prof,hon etc are the only good ones. even some governors run fraud departments in their homes.

Even uniport run an MA is credit card scam. am not surprised!!!

As for me I think this article is just a prefect description of our country. if you disagree go and hug a transformer.
"
Nigeria, for example, leads the world in criminal
enterprises. Every level of Nigerian society is
criminal, with the smart ones running Internet
scams, the mid-range ones running car theft
rings, and the silly ones engaging in piracy and
kidnapping. At the University of Lagos, you can
major in credit card fraud."

JUST THE PERFECT DESCRIPTION.

. Africans are simply a stupid bunch. in other to deal with a problem and end it..we need to stop pretending is not there...whiles our pastors and church members keep fucking the bois. lets open up..then those who need help will come forward and be helped. we are driving people to hell instead of bringing them to Christ. God will never forgive us . shame an all of you who thinks you are doing the will of God by driving away sinners. God forgive you all

Accra- Ghana is one city that host most of stars in Africa with its modern estate and fine architecture.

I am a Nigerian and I live in Ghana and I think the pic of Ghana in here is very biased. like every country there are certain places in a capital that are not nicer so taking a pic of such a view and portraying as Accra is very bad....if you know Accra well it is one of the most visited african cities and home to the most foreign celebrities aside south Africa...maybe you guys can see Accra better in this site. www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=421024

I'm 21 with a lot of opportunities waiting out there to usher me in,so by all standards that is something worth a while you pathetic scum of my toilet!i can easily reckon you are a 30 something year old failure who spends his time peeping at this mother while she is taking her bath,and of course wasting away like a cursed derelict

Having a Bachelor's at 21 should not be anything to brag about my friend. I am 25 and had my Bachelor of commerce(accounting and finance) degree in 2008 and have had my Post Graduate Diploma this 2012. That is aside my full completion of ACCA and many other professional exams. I have worked with Societe Generale Bank, Taught in a Basic School,a Senior High sch,being a teaching assistant in the university of cape coast (as a national service personel) I have also worked with the education ministry in Ghana and The national identification Authority. so if I compare what I have achieved at 25 I think you are like soo behind so don't brag about it.

I think i know the cause of the Ghana/Nigeria rivaries. Ghana feels her economic standing and and a host of things has placed her far and above nigeria in the committee of nations and as such wants to tell nigeria that maybe shut up cos we are bigger than you. Nigeria on the other hand want to tell ghana they are populous and inspite of its recent economic woes deserve to be respected per her past and prospect. but ghana may be right cos a lot of things that seem almost impossible to happen in nigeria happens there. this is a country where government is under serious watch and the opposition has almost the power to bring government business to a halt so that the rifgt thing is done. the legal system seem perfect and government officials are sued by the ordinary people always foand they win lot of the times unlike nigeria. university students sue universities all the time too. maybe nigeria has to fix her stuff so she be stronger

and where are you talking from...i am guessing you are one of the many circle boy i feed everyday. ungrateful nigerian. and what is the name of the place you go to eat your Nigerian food that you call nigerian kitchen. hahahaha...u see how Ghana has given you mouth. hahahahaha...am not sure you can afford food from Ashanti home touch or odo rice which are considered to be very cheap joints. meet me somewhere at Vienna city, i will take you out and get you a one decent meal....foooool.

Cusubaba: Ur a big fool. Nigerians eat in Nigeria Kitchen in Ghana. TUFIAKWA... Which Nigerian will eat those poisons Ghanaians are eating. Like Raw pepe with Fermitted maize, kenke with coco yam leaf. I said TUFIAKWA ugly charcoal Ape.

Red-Light:
i worth more than every of ur family put together *i dnt like braggin* i dnt need nigeria richest men's money coz i make my own money .... Now scram... If u cant dispute a point, U can shut up...its not important that u should comment

I think am talking to fool. what you just wrote made me know. away from me. confirm your stupidity by commenting here.

and how much are you worth? why do you people behave like fools. instead of trying hard to make life you are talking about someone's money.... How much of the richest Nigerian's money have ever come into your pocket.smh

Red-Light:
instead of talking like an id.iot, why cnt u just tell us the richest man in gayna and his worth

If we listen or take to heart comments from brainless dolls like you then nigerian boys like chucks,chiji,uche and a lot of them will die out but the heart God has given us makes us disregard comments from fools of your kindred and do the good we can do. Buying the little we can for your suffering lot of nigerians who seek greener pastures down here. i am not boasting but i wish mental patients like you would one day meet with some of your people who come down here and ask them how much it means to be bought a cup of chilled mashed kenkey and milk with groundnut. it don't cost much...just Ghc1 but the difference it make in the daily life of your country men here is big. or dolling out Ghc 120 to help someone start a phone housing retail business, or taking one of your people to ashanti home touch to eat the kind of foods he misses to eat in nigeria or even giving someone Ghc 2 to buy call credit to call his family in Nigeria to tell them he is fine and alive and trying to make life. In all this they still believe life in Ghana is better for them than in nigeria where wickedness are filled in the hearts of people that they can and will never help a stranger or themselves. a country where people only pray for God to kill someone or destroy a neighbour .even here nigerians dont trust themselves. so fools of your kind should learn to talk.

Rossikk:

If you believe that ''77%'' figure by Al Jazeera and their oyibo backers, then you're even more stup.id than you sound.

Meanwhile these are the same people that will claim majority of Nigerians live on ''less than a dollar a day''. I wonder where that 'starving majority of 77%' finds dollars for bleaching cream which must surely cost over ''a dollar''.

Mr.he.goat.... Tell Nigerian men and women both old and young to stop bleaching their skin. 77% of a whole country's women bleached minus the men...that is pathetic yet you are not wise enough and call a people proud of their race and color names. an animal called Joseph and Matthew at the same time ...be wise Matthew Joseph or Joseph Matthew...which ever comes first. visit http://m.aljazeera.com/story/20134514845907984 and advice your mother who can almost be compared to Micheal Jackson.

Mathew joseph: ok ghana is a coun3 in west africa,you can identify them with their colour,they are black like char coal,their women are ugly too even their men dnt knw hw to dress,u c dem wearing packet shirt nd plain trouser with canvass or trainers 2 go with,and when they want 2 eat they use boiled eggs instead of meat or fish in their soup,and also ghanaians do all forms of jobs like,shoe shiners,tailors that carries their sewing merchines on their heads,puff puff and burns sellers,stewards in hotels etc,ghana galz are also cheap 2 get,coz their cedis is worthless 2 our naira,if u go 2 ghana wit #50k u will be worshiped like their king,ashante nene of kumasi,my guy i hope u kan nw recognise a ghanaian if u c one!

You bunch will always have an excuse for st*p**ity.... tell both nigerian men and women to stop bleaching.

quote author=kandiikane]This disease was made in labs. They have now dumped it on Nigerians. [/quote]

and that is very s**pid

Fuelish: the fact of d matter is that d average nigerian thinks being dark is ugly.

ivorians make the creams but they are sensible enough not not o use them. they would rather send it to countries that are that backward.

360command: tell Al jazeera to go to cote d'ivoire or mali where they would see bleeching at its peak. We bleech but I know we don't too bleech as the ivorians

You insult a nation because their women would raher have a natural skin than nigeria where 77% of women have heir skin bleached. Check aljazeera on their indepth story on bleaching in nigeria....

Nigeria's dangerous skin whitening obsession
Last updated: 6 April 2013

Nigeria has the world's highest percentage of women using skin lightening agents in the quest for "beauty".

Lagos, Nigeria - After carefully washing her face, legs and arms, Taiwo Solomon vigorously rubs cream over her body. She is meticulous and makes sure she covers her entire face. Soloman, 32, is bleaching her skin. She believes fairer skin could be her ticket to a better life. So she spends her meager savings on cheap black-market concoctions that promise to lighten her pigment.

This has been a daily routine for the past 15 years. Now several shades lighter she says her new skin makes her feel more beautiful and confident.

“Bleaching just makes me feel special, like am walking around in a spotlight,” she told Al Jazeera. “I am not seeking to be totally white, I just want to look beautiful. I cannot stop using the lightening agents,” she adds.

Solomon is not alone. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), 77 percent of women in Nigeria use skin-lightening products, the world’s highest percentage. That compares with 59 percent in Togo, and 27 percent in Senegal. The reasons for this are varied but most people say they use skin-lighteners because they want "white skin".

In many parts of Africa, lighter-skinned women are considered more beautiful and are believed to be more successful and likely to find marriage.

It's not only women though who are obsessed with bleaching their skins. Some men too are involved in the practice.

Conceptions of beauty

Lightening creams are not effectively regulated in Nigeria where even roadside vendors sell tubes and plastic bags of powders and ointments from cardboard boxes stacked along sidewalks in market districts. Many of the tubes are unlabelled as to their actual ingredients.

"An African will prefer to be called John-Philip. If you said your name was Chukwu Emeka Afongkudong they will say you are from the village. You are backward. How can you have such a name? We really look down on our culture and heritage instead of being proud of it. "

- Femi Kut, Nigerian Musician

In a market in Lagos, Nigeria's commercial capital, business is booming for shops selling skin-lightening products. Both local and imported products line the shelves of Rashida Lawal’s cosmetics shop.

"About 90 percent of my clients come asking for skin whitening products," she told Al Jazeera. "I sell it to them and give advice on what product is best for them and how to use them."

She says most of her customers are in a great haste to lighten their skin.

“Taking the color of your skin to different colour has to be gradual. It's not something you decide one day that 'I want to be fair, I want to be like Michael Jackson and you become Michael Jackson all of a sudden'. That is why we have to advise them first before selling it to them” said Lawal.

Rashida and her staff also mix different ointments and creams for customers “depending on the desired level of lightness”.

Famous Nigerian Musician Femi Kuti says the use skin-lightening products have given rise to their own terminology.

“When the bleaching propaganda got so negative, they had to come up with toning. Bleaching sounds too hard, now it’s toning. I don't bleach, they say, I tone!”

“They think bleaching is gege,” he told Al Jazeera, using a Nigerian term for cool.

Femi attributes skin bleaching to a feeling that foreign products and images must, by definition, be good.

“An African will prefer to be called John-Philip. If you said your name was Chukwu Emeka Afongkudong they will say you are from the village. You are backward. How can you have such a name? We really look down on our culture and heritage instead of being proud of it,” he laments.

Dangerous consequences

Skin bleaching comes with hazardous health consequences. The dangers associated with the use of toxic compounds for skin bleaching include blood cancers such as leukemia and cancers of the liver and kidneys as well as severe skin conditions.

Hardcore bleachers use illegal ointments containing toxins like mercury, a metal that blocks production of melanin, which gives the skin its colour, but can also be toxic.

Ayobode Williams, a medical doctor, says the skin bleaching agents have both internal and external effects on those who use them.

“Systemically it causes things like kidney failure because of the mercury in some of the products and it also causes eczema, skin pigmentation among a host of other infections,” he told Al Jazeera.

Dr Williams warned that sustained use of bleaching agents could cause even cancer.

Yet few seem to pay attention to these dangers. For those who bleach, staying black is not beautiful at all.

You guys are soo backward. Been gay ain't your business. Are u guys zexual police? I am in Gh. now and though frowned upon these guys have almost total liberty.

This mad man by his utterances nearly marred the election in Ghana last Saturday. A facility was uncovered in Accra which was speculated to be a facility operated by a joint team of Chinese and Isrealis. This facility was said to intercept electoral results faxed to the electoral commission and alter it before it reaches it. Quickly Mr. Obasanjo for reasons known to him rushed to the seen and said he the facility truly works for the E.C and that the E.C is not denying the fact. People had rushed to the seen because Ghana's electoral commission does not hide anything from the parties but in this case only the ruling party was speculated to be aware. Within an hour the electoral commission came out and denied in having any contract with any company to transmit information on its behalf. If it had not been God things would have been bad. People as a result started to believe he had a hand in whatever is going on. Ghana is a very democratic nation and they are able to keep it because they are faithful to the people. I hope Mr. Obasanjo learns to shut up next time.

terryskender: THIS IS A SPONSORED LIE.I LIVE IN GHANA AND ECOWAS DIDN'T SAY SUCH SHIT

Boss, you don't know anything you talking about. Everyone knows what that nation wrecker did yesterday. Tell him to advise his good self not to come and spoil Ghana for us.

Today I lost my respect for Nigerians after watching this inhumanity on YouTube. Such a thing shall never happen in Ghana. That is soo bad. Taking the lives of four university students in such a barbaric manner. Oh Jesus. See how they hit the head of those boys with sticks and set them on fire. Curse be on anyone who stood and watched that day and made no effort even to report to the police. If someone had done that......maybe they woulda been saved. Nigeria, Nigeria, Nigeria.....u made me cry this day

Just helping our buddy with his quest for knowledge on the operation of a health insurance. The ghana case is one that is worth monitoring. So whiles it may not serve ur purpose it helps my friend deepen his knowledge base on the operation of a true national insurance.

AjanleKoko: ^^
O . . .kay. Should we come get some healthcare in Ghana then?

Ghana national health insurance scheme was established by an act of parliament. When u have an accident u will be rushed to any hospital forr treatment and if after treatment you are on the national scheme u just go home. If not you pay the cost as in the old cash and carry system. The purpose of the scheme in ghana is to do away with cash and carry and make health affordable and accessible.I have beeen to hospital 3 times this year and have paid nothing.

In ghana this is how the nhis works...any person under the scheme can visit and public health facility and about 95 percent of private health facility to access healthcare when sick without paying a anything. pregnant women,new born children, nursing mothers(first 3 months after birth) and elders 70 and above do not hav to pay anything to join the scheme and receive care.there are drugs listed under the scheme and it is on an occassion where a specific drug not under the scheme is prescribed that the patient may be required to pay with cash for that drug only. Hospital admission cost,opd and every service received free. It is compuuterised so health caan be aacccessed in every hospital accross the country. Every scheme member has a unique code that is easily traced on the national server. A small premium is paid each year...that is about 20 cedis or 2000 naira if am right.

Who is brainwashed....u follow aa fucking guy whose body was eaten by pigs and yet u think u are sane.. Stupid muhaammed is burning in hell right now and that fucking idol u call allah...he must be pissing in ur ass no wonder u bunch keep opening up ur anus... Spiritual gays.

killuminati: absolutely brainwashed idi..ot! May Allah help your life to see the light because you're in a total darkness. Worse than Nepa, abi na PHCN?

Bad or good will depend on thee mindset of the bayelsa people. In Ghana, the Ashanti people which is a kingdom has its own calender, flag(yellow,black and green)...and even has more respect forr the ashanti king than the president. When the king ask for a land to be vacated, they will but will not if th president says so. Inspite of that they know they are still ghanaians. They say... Am an ashanti nd a ghanaian.
