That's why I said Ghana is a great country

Most Cameroonians, don't like for sure!!

Onila exactly!!! I don't like this hair too much for me, I've been told that if you talk about her hair as hair cut she fires you heheheh
But yes she's very discret and sweet lady, I'm proud of her

HBD to NL actually I'm from 2009 but most active in 2011, God bless u all

Hello Pappy 2000, wow kind of difficult situation though, actually I can't take the decision at your place but ask yourself these questions:
For whom my heart beats more?
Which one them can make me complete has a man

Then you can have a start of answers
Good luck bro

And I just came from Cameroon, I know what I'm talking about, people don't like BIYA but they prefer him to Westerners interference when you'll get this you'll get our mentality, majority of population can eat and drink, no electrical issues and good dilplomatic relations aborad, this is why Cameroonians don't want war, we're more than 250 tribes and we know what could happen in case of war this is called: wisdom

Again, I don't like Biya, but Cameroon is not better not worst than others
Engineerd, yes you're totally right, but sometimes we need to underline some points

onila:
I dont envy any country or region in Africa. because every region in Africa has its problems
Southern Africa- Aids, violation
East Africa- War, famine
Central Africa- War, violation, underdevelopment
Shahel west Africa- Extreamism, drought

THE WORST DEMOCRACY IS BETTER THAN DICTATORSHIP. There is no peace in Cameroon BUT FEAR. Libya, tunisia etc were peaceful countries years ago but look at what happened few months ago.

I quit this topic because theres no need to compare other African countries 2 the other  because all countries in Africa hs its problems

I agree every part of Africa has its problem that's my first point so no need to say a country is better ( we agree  , and for the so called "fear" in Cameroon I hope you've been once out there to feel this fear because many Nigerians out there would say you're wrong: Maybe it's difficult to understand for you sister, but some people prefer cholera to snakes and that's Cameroonians' mind, and if you want to know more about Cameroonian mentality  just google: RUBEN UM NYOBE

I repeat even though it hurts some people ( and this is not my intention but we have to be honest) there's no country better than other, being patriotic doesn't mean being subjective: DRC has the bigger economic potential in Africa, but we all know what's going on out there so this is completely unrelevant to think "better" by the size or potential, but it's all about concrete things

onila:
cameroon might be peaceful but its just peaceful for the rich. Besides Cameroon has one of the worst democratic government in Africa and the economy is not so good at the moment

Hello Onila, I'm not a fan of Paul Biya because we got a great potential in terms of agriculture, ressources and so on and for me this President and his governement have already shown their weaknesses, but when you talk about democracy you just talk about alternative gouvernments right? and in this statement I'm sorry to say a "good country" has nothing to do with "so called democracy" imposed by westerners, Africa is organised in a way that their so called democracy doesn't work, we were completely cut of the reality and that's why we got problems nowadays

Lybia and Ghana are two great illustrations: Khaddafi was labelled as a one the worst political man in the World but Lybia was one of the "best" country ( like the thread title) in Africa, since westerners brough their "democracy" we all know what's going on there
As for Ghana same thing: Rawlings was  blacklisted and viewed as a big dictator and tyran while this man was working for his country and now is known for the man who has initiated Ghana's developpement, the others are just following his steps

Paul Biya is maybe not an example for you but I'm sorry, Cameroun is a stable country and the first largest and diversified economy of the CEMAC equivalent of the ECOWAS, check some informations if you want but Cameroon has nothing to envy to any other country, we have our problems like others but far from being worst, it's a fact
Other thing: If I had to choose between Paul Biya and Westerners' interference, the choice would be very easy I'd choose Biya because we know what happens when these people come to your land to support their "democracy" slogan, no thanks

emöfine:
I immediately cringed when I saw this topic because it appears devised as a means for one to derive comfort in the situation of Nigeria by comparing her to countries who are worse off.
Since some project a single image of Nigeria I understand that by way of countering this some feel the need to contrast but let’s be honest; the bar in Africa is not exactly high. Such desperate comparison actually reflects more on Nigeria than her neighbours. Is Nigeria better than some African nations? Undoubtedly yes. But when the bar is not even high it’s not exactly an accomplishment or a relief especially given Nigeria’s resource and potential.
When people judge Nigeria, they do not judge or assess her by Rwanda's or Chad’s standards.

I partly agree, the bolded one is relative, Nigeria has its good and its bad side not better not worst

Actually I do respect everyone on here, because everyone brings something ( Mrs Chima for example her feminism makes me laugh like you sister, Pendo89 and her sweetness, Good Girl and her strong mind, and Mr Cork and his endless love for his Black sisters even though he showcases it by provocations)

And many thanks Lari, I'm bery flattered about your comment, God bless you and all Nairalanders

Arosa:
You are right nayah, "better" can be regarded as a relative term.

You know brother, I'm not Nigerian but I respect people and I love and believe in Africa's freedom but this kind of statement I'm doubting sometimes, because I can understand your pride as Nigerian, and I'm really also proud of my country and my culture but there's no reason tp bash others to feel better, it's like hinding yourself the truth, Nigeria has definitemy a great potential everybody knows that, but oil is not everything: Senegal is a better palce to live that yours sorry while is one of the poorest country in the Continent btw check this link
https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-890441.0.html

Ezufi it depends on what you call better place to live, Ecuatorial Guinea, Gabon Cameroon are very good place to live too

doctimothy:
Nigeria is better than Somalia, Ethiopia, Zimbabwe, Sudan, Congo, uganda, Namibia, Burundi, Cameroon, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka,  etc. But we are too egotistical to acknowledge that. We compare oursleves to UK and USA, the same paople who are responsible for our problems. They have a strange hold on Africa, may God deliver us from them

I'm not sure about that, sorry but you're wrong, Cameroon is a very peaceful place to live, just ask to Nigerian brothers who are coming to this place this is completely false thinking Nigeria is better than some countries basing your comment on economy, because you can have oil and not being a good place to be, Chad , Lybia have oil but just check if they're good place to live, don't be confused

Actually I don't even understand why Africans love comparing each other, I mean are we so full of complexes to always want to put others down to shine? I think it's a uselsess childish game, we have many problems to solve ( ethnical, social, economical, political) while some prefer comparing to comfort themselves Nwogbe Nigeria could in top 3 but right now many prefer (including investors) crossing the border going elsewhere in particular in some countries you think you're better! Ecuatorial Guinea, Ghana, Gabon, Cameroon are maybe less rich than Nigeria but many people, might probably tell you they prefer Ghana or Cameroon to live: I think the solution is not bashing the others but work to improve our weaknesses

Poster, godd morning, a "perfect relationship" to me is a relative notion, I think we can say " the best way to live together" but perfect is quite diffuclt because I truly believe that there's no guideline or perfect relatioship

Now to live a better or best life ever with your half, communication, respect, love and understanding are requested

Mr Cork Ammyns has a crush for you brother!!!

Ammyng:
OMG Mr. Cork is hilarious

you see?
Mr Cork we know you love us but let's try to be nicer for once

Zucker:
Nayah, I love you!

A little more fact checking could really help the quality of this thread. Here is a link to help the lazy inform themselves a little bit more on the topic of Ghana: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghana

Lol really?? you don't even know me heheheh

Seriously, what is done is done so I'm not going to judge but I advise you tell the truth or push her to tell the truth this could be too heavy to bear, you're adult so you have to assume

dayokanu:
I am for equality

Me too

noiseless:
And this was as result of one courageous man MR JERRY RAWLINGS, other ghanaians didn't foolishly see it as "IGBO COUP D'ETTAT" and go on massacring their fellow inncocent country men. One giant mass grave that's what NIGGA+AREA is unfortunately.

Exactly! and he was labelled as a "dictator" before, that's why I've always said that "democracy" as these westerners' way is an a absolute solution! I prefer 30 years of Rawlings that 10 years of WADE

Mr Cork I look white?? hehehe that's the best joke ever you made my day dear
However, thanks for the compliment even though you're statement is subjective

No, I can and I would be glad to offer a dinner to my half, it's about pleasure not an obligation
