onatisi: @rickyross,what i have noticed in ghana here is that all ghanian men deep down inside of them wish and wants to be a nigerian,so the fact that they were and are not nigerians always brings out a kind of jealousy in them in the process they attack anything nigerian and try to riodicule nigeria at the sightest oppourtunity,i hve been following ur points and arguements with these ghanians but u dont seem to understand that a ghana wil argue with his Maker if given the chance ,ghanian men are arrogantly stupid and dumb also blind ,there is nothing that hurts a ghanian man stupid ego than for u to ignore him.as u re arguing with them they are enjoying the attention u are according to them.let them continue to live in their fools paradise that ghana is the best country in africa,

Did you said Ghanaian men want to be nigerians? You mean they want to be kidnappers, treasury looters, kidnappers, rapists, ritualists, 419ners, child traffickers, prostitutes, armed robbers, terrorists? Which sane human being want to be any of these? Answer me, quick...modafaka!

[quote author=Ricky_Ross]THE QUESTION SHOULD RATHER BE WHY ARE YOU POOR RATS ALWAYS CRAWLING ALL OVER NAIRALAND RUNNING YOUR MOUTH? HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BUILD A STANDARD BLOG? YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH THE OWNER OF THIS PLACE IS MAKING FROM THE TRAFFIC BEING GENERATED BY YOUR ONLINE RANTINGS ON NAIRALAND?

To answer your question, I am a businessman and I am always on the move. Ask the Chinese or Americans what they are doing in Ghana. Thats the dumbest question so far. My dream is to make as much money as possible before the age of 40. I have companies in 4 countries and counting. No Ghanaian in my age bracket have such dream, your biggest dream is to produce dry gin for local consumption.

Foreigners come to Ghana daily with dozens of airlines and milk your country dry and none of you lazy fools have thought it wise to float a standard airline.
Land transportation is same sorry story. Why are you guys too lazy? Its same story in the banking/insurance sector? 90% of Ghana is owned by foreigners including Nigerians and you guys are not worried? ARE U AWARE THAT YOU WILL SOON BECOME SLAVES IN YOUR OWN COUNTRY?[/quote]Hahaha slaves ke? Ghana has become such a magnet that everyone wants to come and invest here. What better vote of confidence than that? So long as they obey our laws, all investors are welcome. If they don't respect our laws we kick them out right away.

Don't worry, very soon we'll know who is the landlord and who the tenant is? You know the history between the two countries,huh? Ghanaians are lazy? So how come your country is so phucked up if indeed nigerians are hard working as you are trying to portray?

Tell me, which citizens of the following two countries are lazy? Country A is the second largest producer of cocoa in the world. In 2011, Country A harvested a million tonnes of cocoa through the sweat and toil of its hardworking farmers.In addition, Country A s a leading exporter of fruits,vegetables and flowers in the region where the two countries are located.

Country B on the other hand, used to produce large quantities of groundnuts and cocoa. Today, all the groundnut pyramids have disappeared and cocoa production is nothing to write home about. Citizens and governments of Country B, literally sit at home doing virtually nothing. At the end of the month, they go back to their capital city and collect what they call federal allocation from oil money. they brng the money to their states, share it and wait for the end of another month so they can go back and collect another allocation!

Which of these two groups is lazy? That is if you truly understand the meaning of the word lazy ...... ewu Poof Poof

eaglechild: I am beginning to wonder if Ghanaians are better at everything.

Yes ooooh. It’s in our genes!

I knew when I saw the headline-even before I opened the thread- that it must be el-Anatsui-the only one in nigeria who could achieve such a feat. I’d been following his career and he’s a true son of Ghana.

And why wasn’t the fact that he is Ghanaian reflected in the headline? If na stori to deamen Ghanaians, you would have seen a screaming headline ‘Ghanaian Professor at Nigerian University………………..’ kai bad belle pipple!

El Anatsui
From Wikipedia

Man's Cloth by El Anatsui (1998 - 2001), on display at the British Museum.El Anatsui (born 1944) is a Ghanaian sculptor active for much of his career in Nigeria.

Anatsui was born in Anyako, and trained at the College of Art, University of Science and Technology, in Kumasi, in central Ghana. He began teaching at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, in 1975, and has become affiliated with the Nsukka group.

Anatsui's preferred media are clay and wood, which he uses to create objects based on traditional Ghanaian beliefs and other subjects. He has cut wood with chainsaws and blackened it with acetylene torches; more recently, he has turned to installation art. Some of his works resemble woven cloths such as kente cloth. Anatsui also incorporates uli and nsibidi into his works alongside Ghanaian motifs.[1]

El Anatsui has exhibited his work around the world, including at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (2008–09);[2] National Museum of African Art, Washington, D.C. (2008);[3] Venice Biennale (2007); Hayward Gallery (2005);[4] Liverpool Biennial (2002); the National Museum of African Art (2001); the Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona (2001); the 8th Osaka Sculpture Triennale (1995); the 5th Gwangju Biennale(2004); and the Venice Biennale (1990).

A retrospective of his work, subtitled When I Last Wrote to You About Africa opened at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, Canada, in October 2010. It will be touring North America for the next 3 years.

Revolva: My fellow ghanian bro I truly feel you am a naija boi but I support your post its truthful and honest -
Our nation lacks mora for the comon man - its not that they are not better hospitals here and amenities they are world class here but ask me who enjoys them only citi dwellers and infact the rich ones -
When I visited accra back in 2004 I was ashamed of my lagos city I ave never stay a week in my lifetime without steady light but in a slum in Nima I visited a friend but enjoyed a month non interrupted I bitterly cried for nigeria and the accra freeway amazed me - I humbly tell you if not for gov. Fashola works that transform a bit of lagos making it look a bit better and organised - 15 yrs back lagos is hell , roads , electricity the worst , crime , mega slums..public schools and health so terrible, look we nigerians may have more edge over ghanians in resources but I still rrspect ghana philosophy and would love to visit again, also like ghanaian music weller we r all africans jare

Don’t mind them o jare! You are welcome to visit Ghana any day.

Most of these eediots with a brain of a fish have never even stepped outside Nigeria in their miserable lives. All they hear is the half-truths and propaganda their incompetent, clueless and corrupt officials tell them.

So while the rest of the world is busy making progress, creating a better system for their people, nigerians are happy with surviving on less than $2 a day, even when about 2.4 million barrels of oil are exported daily. That’s enough reason for a violent revolution in other climes. But what do we see? Imbeciles who have turned themselves into talkative and moaners!

Just look at the UN Human Development Indices and you will weep for your dustbin country!
Do you know why I am not afraid to stand up to any Nigerian? Simple! If you tell me one thing that is wrong with the Ghanaian society, I will give you five examples of the wrongs in your country! Whatever imperfections you see in Ghana, multiply it by 20 and you get what is obtainable in nigeria. It is as simple as that.

In Ghana, we have our own developmental challenges. The difference between us and you is that we accept our shortcomings and work hard to fix them. Our leaders are not saints, but they try their best to deliver good things for their people. Today, when I drive out on the streets of Accra, I see lots of road construction projects going on and that makes me very happy. I see lots of big structures going up. In the East Legon area where I live, a massive road construction project is ongoing. The current NDC govt, whether it is reelected on Friday or not, can at least boast that it tried to improve infrastructure and no one can fault that. And if the NPP is elected, they have promised to provide free secondary education. So you can see Ghana is on the road to somewhere. In five years time, you’ll be amazed at what we would have achieved.

I hope you can say the same about your country. Indeed I hope there will still be a country called nigeria 5 years from now.

Cusubaba: Typical senseless Ghana man. 95% of Ghanaians live in abject poverty, your late president John Atta Mills is an exemple, na hungry na him waya him dead. NPP Presidental candidate, Nana Akufua Adu promise Ghanaians free Senior High School because Ghanaian children Pays 6.5 million old cedis per ann for ordinary secondary school in Ghana that is why 76% of Ghana children can't afford ordinary government school in Ghana. He also promise to help 4,224 schools that operate under the trees. He promise to provide electricity for 7,482 communities that are living in darkness in Ghana . Ugly lazy animal did u which Ghana presidential debate, honestly Ghana is a shit hole.The fact is that Ghana is a village when compared to Nigeria, Ivory Coast or Senegal in West Africa. The only develop place in Ghana is east legon, spritex road, osu while Nima, Sodom and Gomoroh, zongo, kwama Nkrumah circle in Accra are the worst slums in Africa. Kumasi is a glorified village. Upper East, Upper west, Northern, volta, Eastarn, Central, Western, Broho ahafor Regions are TYPICAL VILLAGES.

The last I checked, the only thing in Nigeria close to a city is Abuja,huh? Even then Abuja is still a small place, and things are beginning to fall apart in that city already.

If your idea of a city is the slum nigeria has become, then I am sorry for you. I’ll live in a ‘village’ any day provided it has what it takes – good roads, electricity good health care, security, potable water, shops, schools etc. In my opinion, those are the elements that count, whether village or city. How many of your cities have those facilities and amenities? How many of your people have access to electricity? How many of your people can sleep with their two eyes closed at night? In the day time, they have to deal with book haram, kidnappers, ritualists etc etc. And how many of your people-whether in the city or village- have access to good quality education? Why do you think your compatriots are trooping to Ghana to attend school every day?

Let me tell you a little story

This Nigerian woman brought her daughter to attend a public secondary school in Ghana few weeks ago. Since she was new to Ghana she pleaded that I accompany her to the school, which is outside Accra. And since I had a little bit free time I took her and daughter to the school.

First, she was hugely impressed with the road. She said the road we traveled on was one of the best she had seen, especially as it goes up a mountainous terrain. When we got to the school, we found out that the girl should have done medical examination before reporting. So the school authorities refused to admit her until the tests were carried out. I asked for the nearest hospital where all the tests could be done and we were directed to a government-owned hospital about 60 kilomters away, in some 'village'. Again we drove on top class-European standard road. We met very professional-looking health workers. Within an hour, we have done all the tests, including a comprehensive eye test, and computer generated result were issued to us. At that facility, deep in the Ghanaian hinterland, the Nigerian woman was truly fascinated to see computers everywhere. Everything had been computerized- from collecting a card to the payment system.
Do you know what the Nigerian woman said? She said this can’t happen even at the best public hospital in lagos! Chances are that there won’t be electricity to operate the computers and even if the tests are done, you may have to come the following day to take the results after paying a hefty bribe.

So my guy, keep deceiving yourself.

No amount of rantings will change the pitiable state your country finds itself today. And my honest opinion is that
Nigeria is falling apart and the signs are there for all discerning people.

And while you swim in the ocean of self delusion- I hope you can fix that Seme-Lagos highway (you call it expressway or something). It is more than a national disgrace! you can find money to build a second banquet hall at the presidential villa and yet cannot find money to fix the road that links your country to the outside world? Do you wonder why non-nigerians think you people are weird? Very weird?

Frankiedu: Atleast the aforementioned 9ja acts u tag as talentless are able to communicate globally with English language (pidgin, sometimes)whilst Agya koo is a local talent with no int'l appeal.

Who gives a fvck about international appeal? Agya Koo is okay for me. Why should I care what others think?

sambos994: So what happened to the 80s, 90s, and the 2000s?

Ghanaian music, like other facets of its national life, suffered immensely as a result of the country’s severe socio-economic crisis of the 80s and 90s.

And as with other facets of the Ghanaian society, the music industry is picking up again. So its just a matter of time. Even today we still have some great musicians. Ghanaian music is going to be great again, just like Ghana is going to be great again very soon. Just give us like 5 years. Watch out for GHANA!

salam001: Lesson learn!,never argue with gaynians,they would never agree our music is better than theirs even if the truth smacks them in the face,i give up,pouring water into a basket does not make sense same as educating gaynians.

Cheers

Look, the two countries have a long history when it comes to music. Ghana music dominated the scene for most of the 1960s and 70s. Go ask your papa and mama dem. Go and do your research and you'll see the big impact Ghanaian music had of nigerian music during that period. So my point is that even if some of you think nigerian music is making waves at this time it is just a phase. So why get worked up and try to put down other people?

It still does not change the fact that I listen to only Ghanaian music and watch mostly Ghanaian movies-Agya Koo. Just as when it comes to football, I support only two teams- Accra Hearts of Oak and the Mighty Black Stars. I am not into Chelsea, Man U, Barcelona stuff. I am just Ghanaian in every sense of the word!

salam001: yah,be it as it may,but last time I checked millions of Nigerian movies are sold in ghana on weekly basis,and your girls can do anything to get a 9ja boyfriend,you gotta swallow your bloated pride and admit the truth,i dont know why ghanains argue against truth

Ghanaians argue against truth? very funny coming from a nigerian! Everyone who is not nigerian can see that your pathetic country is on a fast track into the dustbin. Do nigerians accept that as the truth? Hell no. eddioot like you will argue till eternity but its just a matter of time....................

salam001: petrocedis,i thought ghanains dont watch agya koo anymore,that dry and talentless f00l,they prefer Mr ibu,aki and pawpaw e.t.c

yeah, you thought wrong, just like most of your clueless country people who don;t know anything about Ghanaians and the Ghanaian society, but want to peddle rub-bish!

you call ibu,aki and pawpaw talented? I call them a bunch of f00ls, that's how I see them! There is another one-what is that his name.....usofia or some crap. give me Agya koo any day.

salam001: Silly ghanains,everyday on their sites,they are always complaining of How ghanains rush for Anything Nigerian,Now stup1d petrodollar is here yapping sh1t,

Yes ooh, that's why we are rushing for your corruption, boko haramed, generator fumes compromised, your kidnapping youths, your ritualists, even sef we are rushing for your inherently corrupt officials, mindless politicians,cluessless and corruption-ridden society. that makes all of you frigging ediooooots your country is simply phucked.

Can someone with a bit of a brain play me that song.......nigeria jagaja? abeg I wan to dance. Yeyeye, fuelish, ludicrously stupi-d

sambos994: Ghanaians, why do you guys listen to Nigerian music? Watch Nigerian comedians.....or speak Pidgin English?. Until you come up with anything original, don't even talk.

Can't speak for all Ghanaians, but I reckon I personify a contemporary Ghanaian. I listen only to Ghanaian music -in the car, at home etc. Don;t have much time to watch movies, but whenever I want to watch a movie, I am likely to watch an Agya Koo movie. So don't know what you are talking about. Even when I meet people on the street here in Ghana, I speak Twi to them. That's me. Perhaps the only time I listen to any type of music that is non-Ghanaian is when I listen to contemporary jazz.

[quote author=Ricky_Ross]These bloated poor rats from ghana are angry that Nigerian musicians come to Ghana and steal their show. Its not our fault. Whom God has blessed, no one can curse...

I didnt know ghanaian musicians are this cheap. Sakordie is the biggest act in Ghana, yet he is paid less than 10k USD to perform in a show. Even Nigerian comedians like Ay, I go Die etc makes more than that.

Abrantie, petrodolla and all my inlaws from Ghana, i have one message for you guys. SLIPPERS GET SIZE. NIGERIA IS NOT YOUR MATE IN ANYTHING. No matter how you rant on the internet, it doesn't change the fact that MOST GHANIANS love and prefer Nigerian music to ur crappy hiplife. 65% of Ghanaian based Radio/TV Stations dedicate several hours airplay for Nigerian music/movies bc thats whats up... These days most Ghanaian musicians copy Nigerian acts and they imitate our accent to sell their music. These are some of the most popular words these talentless ghanaians are using Oga, Tufiakwa, Chinekeeee, Wahala,[/quote]Why would Ghana even compare itself with the most phucked up country in the world? Give me one good reason why a prgressive cuntry like Ghana, a country that has brought so much pride,honour and dignity to Mother Africa want to compare itself with a country that represents everything evil, criminal and everything negative? This is the crux of the nmatter. Very pathetic indeed. Chei, being tethered to a a hopelessly phucked up country is not funny at all. so I can understand your frustrations, but at least you have to admit your shitty country should be competing with Somalia for the failed state of the century!

65% of Ghanaian stations play nigerian music? Look, I live here in Accra so stop peddling pure crap!
