Lies.

You don't need a third eye to tell which is a shack and which one is not.

Anyway, I thought that debate ended? I only pull this pic when the dude's ego is beyond limit.

how is there any difference? Both are brick walled houses with tin roof?

jl115:
yes, yes and yes


FYI 100% of South African land is owned by South Africans

I can see what you're trying to do here.

I know you're both south africans. But the big question is, why is South Africa divided? Why is situation like this?

Okay? Is that your office or a seating room?

The reason why federalism hasn't yet worked out in Nigeria is because it has not been implemented properly not so much the system itself.

Most of the states leadership are too lazy, incompetent or both to come up with policies to kick start their individual state economies they are content to share from the national revenues rather than finding ways to boost their economies.

Lagos for example is how a state should operate in a federation. The lagos state government is able to execute most of its infrastructure projects because of the level of revenue they are able to generate from taxes.

A few states have unique advantages in terms of amount of arable land and resources deep within their earth but most are just content to go cap in hand to receive handouts from the federal government. Take for example the state governments under our present constitution are solely responsible for primary education and health care and secondary level too for the most part but if they don't pull their weight the consequences are poor education numbers which reflect on the federal government.

That's not to say that the present federal government has done so fantastically well but there is only so much the centre can do if the sub units are not pulling there weight.

Ghana is too small for such. Federalism is too expensive to run , one of the reasons Nigeria is home to lot of poor people . So much money go to governance instead of the people .

nope, that's my screen saver and it's a SAAF Gripen flying over the DoD building in waterkloof

That's very true.

Ashanti's were for federalism right from day one and up till now some of them still hold unto that idea. Some of our Volta folks also want that system of Governance so if it's possible why don't we practice Federalism for at most 30 years so we all will see our smoothness level

The days of testing the waters are over...

If we do that, Eastern Region and Central Region will become the poorest regions together with the 3 northern regions

That boy does not know his head from his ass

according to Shma2020 I do

Eastern region get gold bauxite and daimonds.

Lol it will be a win for Western region

How?

Do you know Eastern Region very well?

And even Central Region I doubt it.

The 5 Northern Regions can't be poor if they take Agriculture and Safari tourism seriously.

Appisko:
Eastern region get gold bauxite and daimonds.

Lol it will be a win for Western region

Im even surprise as to how he arrived at that conclusion?

From Pre Colonial to Post Colonial era the 4 regions that have been the backbone to Ghana's economy have been
Western
Ashanti
Eastern and
Bono-Ahafo regions so I don't know how Eastern Region can become poor? with all their resources?

Even now that Greater Accra have become part of the richest Regions in Ghana, Eastern Region is still part of the Top 4 most developed and richest Regions in Ghana.
Greater Accra
Western Region
Ashanti Region
Eastern Region in that order

The Northern Regions are not developing fast because we are not taking the right decisions as a Nation.

If Government should invest into Agriculture/Agri-business and Safari tourism etc in the North, I tell you, those 5 regions will be developed withing the shortest possible time.

Cape Coast also have all it takes to be developed.
From tourism, to industries etc
A region that is located within the Top 4 most developed and resourceful Regions in the Country should not be poor

Appisko:
Eastern region get gold bauxite and daimonds.

Lol it will be a win for Western region

Eastern Region have
--Gold
--Diamond
--Bauxite
--Timber
--Cocoa, Mango, Cashew, Rice
--Coffee (infact Fertile land for agriculture)
--Tourist sites
--Strategic holiday towns like Akosombo, Aburi, Kwahu etc
--They have everything a region needs

Azikiwe is just a patriotic Nigerian, not a hero. Nigeria does not have a hero or heroine figure.

wouldn't have said it better than this anyway that's what that boy doesn't understand about this African liberation issue his knowledge is
already biased for Azikiwe being an African liberator
hero

Abohboy:
He was a hero and Nigeria has many heroes from Awolowo to Zik to Okpara to Wachuku to Ransome Kuti to say Nigeriia doesn't have heroes or heroines is foolish he was a lot more then a patriot he fought hard for Nigeria's independence or is pushing for independence and increasing consciousness among youths of Nigeria not a heroic thing?

You call one of the primary proponents of the genocidal murder of 2million+ women and children a hero? Tells what your definition of hero is. Paints a picture of those you'll call heroes in the future!! I am sue you know that Abacha is also considered a hero among majority of the northern folk as well as by your government.

HOBBIT. why are you using a punchline that I bombarded you with before?

I once told you that as a dwarf that you are, somebody can barely differentiate where your head and ar*s are. That's why your reasoning are always sh*ty.

Today I'm glad somebody learned a punchline from me.

vaxx:
many country has a Central hero. Ghana and south africa comes to mind .


There is difference between hero and patriotic. Nigeria only has patriotic leaders not a hero or heroine .

If we are to go by ur analogy, Mandela is not a hero but a patriotic citizen then.

vankelvin:

Except those regions have the most poorest people in Ghana because of limited opportunities

no, he was acknowledge by whole south Africans . That's is a poor understanding of my analogy there.

white people are smart. Civilisation came to them earlier. Better health care meant that death rate would reduce and with birthrate still high, Europe was starting to get over populated. They started looking for new lands. They found America, Australia, south africà , new Zealand etc
The only mistake they made with South Africa was that they didn't kill all the blacks or majority of them over there like they did to indegineous people in America and Australia. And they are now paying for it now that things have changed.

vaxx:
religious and tribal lines play important role in Nigeria politics. Check out the Federal character system.

The current vice president was a key pastor in winners chapel of God ministry .

Get your facts right.

obaaderemi:
Get your facts right.

was he not?

Roan77:
This is were you are you wrong, the president is the chief of armed force, not a prime minister.
I'm tired of you.
Today is Nigeria independence, let me go and eat better poundo and vegetables soup and pepper soup, then push it down with chilled Heineken, then play with bae, bye bye.

Azikiwe was a figurehead in that government. He was very brilliant but he allowed himself to be made to play second fiddle to Balewa.

Just 30 are you sure you know what you're saying. The last time I visited Ghana Eastern region produces a lot of cocoa, pepper and tomatoes. I think Eastern region is the biggest producer of coconut in Ghana

One of the problems facing the northern region, is this fulani heads men especially from Nigeria and from Burkina Faso including Mali. They have thunder northern region in to Lawless ground that people cannot even Farm. Because of them last year when I visited Ghana it is even difficult to get people which are willing to invest in the northern region because of the situation

@Afriquezuid Check out this village,it’s filled with palatial mansions. There are so many of this in most villages across Nigeria.

In Kenya Africa heroes recognized at least by being named after something
1) Nkrumah - there are two roads - one in Nairobi and Mombasa.
2) Haile Sellaiseh - one major road in Nairobi is named after him
3) Julius Nyerere - one road in Nairobi named after him
4) Patrice Lumumba institute - now Pan African university college.
5) Sankara hotel in Nairobi - Not sure why they chose the name
6) Kenneth Kaunda street - Named after Zambia 1st president

But pan-african heroes of independence definitely
1) Kwame
2) Haile
3) Mandela.
4) Nyerere
5) Maybe Jomo Kenyatta...otherwise Mboya should be in there.
Who'd come top...

Nearly all of them came short - except Mandela and my hero Tom Mboya.
Kwame - became a disaster as president.
Nyerere - similarly went for communism and left his country bankrupt.
Kenyatta - went on unprecedented land grab - taking 0.5m acres for himself.
Haile - messed up Ethiopia - he was overthrown in revolution.

As for Nigeria.

Nigeria maybe Obasanjao or Sani Abacha - the Butcher of Nigeria - are well known. They kept replacing one military leader with another...people lost count.

The only real Africa heroes as we speak today
1) Nelson Mandela - it almost a sacrilege to put Nelson Mandela with anyone in that list.
2) Tom Mboya
3) Thomas Sankara

The rest fell short of glory...maybe Nyerere deserve to be no 4 - the rest became very corrupt self-serving mofo.

Julius Nyerere genuinely made a wrong bet on communism, admitted failure and resigned. He died with one bicycle and one house despite being president for many years.

Tanzania remain peaceful, avoided coups and almost has defeated tribalism because Julius Nyerere truly was inspirational leader. His only mistake was intellectually betting on the wrong economic policy.

vaxx:
so? if that is true,that is the usual way of attracting foreign direct investment. Zik was once employed with a newspaper in Ghana called ""Africa morning Post""

But did a president request him to work in Ghana?

vankelvin:
Mention those tyre and rubber factories make we see? you guys like spreading falsehood too much.

Just as you guys claim you supply Ghana electricity etc and up till now there's no evidence to that claim.

Please, Asikiwe and Nkrumah were very close friends, that we know but don't go further by adding all false claims to the story.

We were taught history in Ghana too. We know our country just as you know yours so don't exaggerate.

Why would they teach students that a president requested for a company to set up in the nation?

vaxx:
so is herbert marculey , so is Anthony enahoro, so is Awolowo, so who among them really fit the national hero?

You guys need to learn .

Kwame nkrumah developed a party from infancy , mobilized and energise the youth, he was imprisoned , several attempt was made on his life . Such an individual can't be compare to Nigeria patriotic citizens.

awolowo passed through all these......

vaxx:
maybe you will need to cross check the difference between patriotic and hero.

He was not even the first leader of Nigeria despite his partrotism, the key people that voted for him were simply the easterners , he doesn't even enjoy the privilege Awolowo in south west enjoy or that of tafawa balewa or Bello..


He was never Nigeria choice .

this one does not know what he's saying...... U're blabbing, bruh.
