First he is inviting this criticism - because he is highlighting South Africa university - instead of his country Ghana.

It was mostly natural resources - gold, diamond - that built south africa economy. Ghana has those minerals. Kenya doesnt yet have natural resources in terms of minerals - of any serious value. Ghana has had gold for centuries...and it has completely failed to use it to turn their country fortunes around. And it cannot blame population like Nigeria.

Abohboy:
Was it resources or manufacturing for South Africa and stop acting like Kenya doesn't have commercially viable resources

Why hasnt ghana used it's minerals like south africa did to build a modern country?

You talk as if Kenya has at least a single university that can stand the beauty of our universities here... Abeg be in your lane before you start posting pictures of one building universities here..

China Communications Construction Company, Ltd. (CCCC) recently held an open house event for the Mombasa-Nairobi Standard Gauge Railway in Kenya, showcasing operation and maintenance of the railway and how it has changed local people's lives.

The largest infrastructure project in Kenya since its independence in 1963, the railway is a flagship project of Kenya Vision 2030 – the long-term development blueprint for the country – and an early outcome of China's Belt and Road Initiative.

you call this nasty thing a uni?

No wonder you guys produce trash

Mad cow? What is nasty about this? UON ranks highly in almost every index out there. And you have to run to Cape Town to show case a university - all you in Ghana is COLONIAL building.

Kenyans lead the world in peer to peer crypto trade

Kenyans are trading cryptocurrencies directly with each other (“peer to peer transactions” or P2P) more than elsewhere in the world. Residents of other African countries are also jumping at the opportunity to cushion remittances and cross-border businesses from costly transfer fees and the risks of weakening currencies.

Internet-savvy Kenyans are leading the world when it comes to using digital currency platforms where individuals trade amongst themselves, a new report shows.

Chainalysis, Global Crypto adoption Index 2021 has ranked Kenya the top country in the world in terms of peer to peer exchange trade, well ahead of the other 154 countries surveyed. The index makes adjustments for purchasing power parity per capita and the internet-using population.

Seem the campus in Cape Town is Oppressing you


UON, is that one too a uni?

Funny enough, 95% of the campus in Ghana that you are referring to, was built post-colonial era

You seem hurt that I posted a South African Uni and not some nasty out of place and shame uni from kenya..

It should be obvious to you by now, that I dont fancy nasty things from kenya

You're not a south african - why would I be hurt - yet I know South Africa is ahead of kenya - by far - at least 3-4 times ahead.

UON has 8 campus - that is just the main campus - plus many satellite campus.
And there are many universities in kenya

Number of universities in Kenya 2013-2019. As of 2019, Kenya counted 63 universities, increasing from 61 in 2017. Compared to 2013, the number of higher education institutions increased by some 20 percent. In the 2019-2020 academic year, Kenya had approximately 509,4 thousand students pursuing a university degree

And let move back to Ghana - from Capetown?

There are fifteen (15) national public universities in Ghana - That is why you're running to South Africa.

Search Kenya minerals and go and see what you find and your claim that Kenya doesn't export minerals is false their minerals export has dropped by 1.5 billion shillings since the start of COVID meaning they had a sizeable mineral export market so now please explain that.

Ghana does have good infrastructure at least to a good degree their electricity is good, their education system is quite good and their universities are amazing much better then what Kenya has and the reason why they aren't developed pike with every single other African country is corruption Kwame Nkrumah would have changed the nation but he was ousted early on but that's just how the west ensures poverty among African nations.

Lastly Ghana doesn't control it's resources of it's gold exports and revenue Ghana only gets 2% of it's total output and value the rest is owned by foreign governments and countries so you cannot blame that for that situation.

Kenya: The Primary School Teachers Who Have PhDs

https://allafrica.com/stories/202109100143.html

Lots of untruth. 1.5B shs is merely 15m dollars.
Ghana has had Gold - it literally named Gold Coast -for centuries.
That it has failed to use it to turn their country fortunes is something they need serious national introspection.
Kenya is far ahead of Ghana despite being resource barren...in almost most indexes if you ignore the data cooking by Ghana dysfunctional democracy.
Kenyans who have gone to Ghana - can attest - it has VERY POOR educaiton.

Everyone know ZImbwabwe has VERY GOOD education. You do not need statistics for some of these things.

I dont think corruption is to blame for Ghana.

Kwame Nkrumah messed by choosing communism. Ghana got independence in 1956 and by 1962 it was bankrupt.
Kwame had to be kicked out - so IMF could come in and baby sit Ghana.

From there it has been a big mess - except for a few years of Jerry Rawlings.

As we speak it's not different from Zambia - and is a crisis away from defaulting in it's debt.

What wrong with Ghana - it's another Tanzania paradox - it's peaceful, not corrupt, not ethnically divided, has lots of natural resources, and yet it poor. Accra look like a cattle kraal.

I think it's BAD LEADERSHIP - especially the communism hangover - for many years - and the kings/vodoo/cultural nonsense.
They need a cultural reformation to embrace market liberal economy...and they need to become serious - stop gold smuggling - and really make sure the minerals pay.

And stop the brain drain.

The University of Education in Ghana has 10 campuses, yet it is still a beautiful uni..


I think we all know that, Ghanaian unis are bigger than 3 kenyan unis combined... So, kenyan 1 building unis cant compare...

Anyway, this is not a comparison between Kenya and SA... There is nothing to compare.

I admired the serene campus, just like most Ghanaian uni campuses and you are hurt that it's not kenya...

The world fastest growing cities

Lokoja could be so beautiful with minimal development just develop the waterfront and provide proper drainage then ensure proper security and Lokoja would already start bringing in more visitors and tourists even other places like Onitsha, Lagos and Asaba would benefit greatly from such and in terms of gwagwalada not much is being done to develop the town which is something i'm really scared about no plans for light rail, roads, drainage or mass social housing projects or at least market regeneration I hope we can such projects very soon.

I said it had lost 15 million dollars of exports not that is the total value market and Kwame Nkrumah wasn't communsit and even if he was there's no problem with it look at China and Russia

Which university is one building. I just showed you part of Main Campus. University of Nairobi has 8 campus plus many satellite. Big universities in kenya have 80k student enrollment. We did the acreage - you lost.

Stick to Ghana - we have South Africans here to showcase their country.

Newly developed POKUASI Communities looking all beautiful


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqHORrEihy4


The communities driving Ghana's huge cement consumption

Kwame was a demagogue - who engaged in grandiose projects - without doing the maths. Volta dam - and other stupid adventures - bakrupted Ghana - and it's yet to fully recover to date. He had to be kicked out to save Ghana. Ghana has never fully recovered from hyperinflation, economic collapse and all the mess Kwame left it - including subsequent military dictatorship -

Pray what was economic justification to build 1,000MW plant in 1950s? Yet Ghana in 2020 can barely use 2,000MW!

Once a country get into ZIm like HyperInflation - it very difficult to recover! And that is Kwame Nkrumah legacy in Ghana economic mismanagement.

Gwagwalada is an upcoming community, you shouldn't expect them to be think about mass transit.
The has to be real economic vALUE there in order to cause a mass exodus from other communities

that's funny

90 % of unis in Kenya are 1 building unis

Yes we did the acreage and most Kenyan unis couldn't match up to most unis in Ghana, in both size and infrastructure

Shhh and go to bed

There is no kenyan university I know of that is one campus - leave alone one building.
For example UON

You must have copied this from somewhere.
It's beyond what your monkey brain can bring up.

*modified
Just like I thought, the idiiot stole it from quora. Typical ipob.

Of course you'd comeout in defense of a flat earther seeing that you are one yourself

Kenya universities are regulated by CUE - Commision of university Education.
If a campus doesnt meet requirement it get closed - and same with useless courses.
You cannot have one building university in kenya

https://www.tuko.co.ke/304697-list-57-university-campuses-closed-according-cue.html

Under the rules, campuses must have environments that are conducive for learning. “Campuses must never be located near noisy bus terminuses, bars, brothels and casinos or in unhygienic or condemned buildings,” states the 2014 regulations.

While CUE did not say which of its regulations the campuses had flouted, some of the blacklisted facilities are next to noisy and overcrowded bus stops and terminals, while others are in aged, non-descript multi-storey buildings.

CUE also did not indicate what it wanted institutions to do to avoid being shut down after the deadline.

He could have exported the power to other countries it was part of his plan fir African countries to be connected in all forms including through electricity and his minister for finance and economy was a harvard graduate who was there to help this news of hyper inflation and whatever I don't believe it and the nation wasn't near collapsing whatsoever

Lokoja has nothing in mind the governor is too busy with political ambitions then with actual proper leadership of his state there's no single project in Lokoja for anything that I mentioned but seeing that it's growing that fast I won't be surprised to see it spread to the other side of the River and Gwagwalada although an upcoming community is still in Abuja so should be getting a lot of attention and the governemtn can provide the economic value by placing an industrial park in the area for example but they don't have such plans in place for the people.

Maybe you're ignorant. Kwame not only collapsed Ghana economy in a record 5yrs - but also refused help from IMF. He couldnt even pay the army salaries - and eventually he was overthrown. Building a 1,000MW plant even today is not a joke - it's very expensive. He should have started with 100Mw -

He was wrong and stubborn...at least Julius Nyerere after collapsing TZ economy - admitted failure and resigned. Kwame digged in like Mugabe - thankfully the army kicked him out - and brought IMF.

He didn't collapse their economy though and of course he refused help from IMF how have they helped so far? You're aware that the complete collapse of the Naira was due to IMF recommended changes to our currency and fiscal policies and it was those changes that recked my family's business which had been going on since the 1920s the IMF is not your friend and they're not helpful, Sankara knew this and he did a lot for Burkina Faso without their help increased literacy, built thousands of schools vaccinated millions, built railways and roads, reduced salaries of government officials and operating costs of the government and greatly reduced their foreign debt and guess what? He was a Marxist just like Kwame Nkrumah
