1. Your culture makes you who you are. The Ashantis who are the majority in Ghana are naturally laid back people. I won't call them lazy, but they are just people with little ambition. Ashanti culture influences the whole of Ghana. Our cultural values and beliefs influences our way of life, Nigeria is a battle ground for cultural superiority contest. 2. Having a better educational system does not guaranty that you'll produce the most educated people or the best. France may have the best healthcare system in the world, but that does not mean they produce the best physicians or their health services are the best. 3. Fulanis are not indigenous to Ghana. The majority of Ghanaians live in the Southern part and the South controls the affairs of the country. Everything Ghana is Accra and Accra is in the deep south, so Fulani have little or no foothold in Ghana. 4. Passport ranking is a thing of diplomatic choice not a thing of must. North Korea has alienated itself from the majority of the world, but China and Russia still remain their greatest friends. It's a thing of choice. 5. Currency?? I no go talk put here. You need to learn economics from scratch, because it's obvious you have no knowledge in this area. 6. Tourism is not by force, not every country see tourism as a lucrative business. For example Japan is one of the greatest countries in the world today, it made it's name via other means not tuorism. I'm not saying you ain't correct in some of your assertions, but next time when comparing put down the positives and negatives of both countries. For instance, just because Norway is a peaceful country with so many of it's institutions working perfectly does not mean that Norway is greater than the USA. |

A very nonsensical, nauseating and ignorant post scripted by a myopic mind |

Okoroawusa:Too shockingly ignorant for any sensible person to attempt responding to. Where do you even begin? To make matters worse, the ignorant poster is even insulting those correcting her gross lack of knowledge. Nigerians are something else. |

Kinematics:The Asantes are laid back people? Maybe by Nigeria standards, but the Asantes are like the Igbo of Ghana. Very cultural, very hardworking, very enterprising, very eloquent, very imaginative etc. Our version of Inosson is Kantanka Motors, ran by an Asante. Our music, movie industry etc are ran by the Asante. They're the most prolific people in Ghana, just a tad bit "slower" than the Igbo, Hausa etc. Read up on the Asante empire |

mdntiri:They are somewhat slower compared to Nigerians, less aggressive, easily satisfied and barely see things beyond their immediate environment. Do you know that one of the reasons you have more African Americans with Nigerian DNA as compared to Ghana where you have more Caribbeans with Ghanaian DNA? Its because even the whites noticed that people from Nigeria/Cameroon were more resilient, more aggressive, more difficult to control, hence they sent them to region with "harsher climate" as a way of punishment etc to till the soil there. Hence today you have more of AAs with Nigerian and Cameroon-Congo DNA. |
| Re: Why Ghana Is Better Than Nigeria by mdntiri(m): 4:14pm On May 16, 2022 |
Kinematics:"...they barely see things beyond their immediate environment." Well I won't dispute that too much. But Ivory Coast is made up of about 40% Akan/Agni people that originally came from Ghana. To tell you how far their influence went. Same influence extends all over Ghana into Togo etc. The Ghanaian shoe makers/hustlers of the Ghana must go era were majorly hardworking Asante etc The Asante were some of the earliest people to venture into the Japans etc, some of the first people to open African-owned markets/businesses in America etc So they venture out too, but not on the scale of the Igbos etc just like you're saying. |
| Re: Why Ghana Is Better Than Nigeria by Kinematics: 4:27pm On May 16, 2022 |
mdntiri:Well I never said they ain't hard working, but they are people that get easily saitified whereas they can achieve more if they put in more effort. Historical facts can back my claim. It's well documented where the Europeans were comparing the character of Africans from the Bight of Biafra to that of the Gold coast region. Ashantes are generally docile in nature. It's a known fact! |
| Re: Why Ghana Is Better Than Nigeria by mdntiri(m): 4:27pm On May 16, 2022 |
Kinematics:. I've been noticing the American/Nigerian, Ghanaian/Carribean difference in the African diaspora. Thanks for the explanation. In Suriname for example I hear there's a majority Akan/Ghana African diaspora there, because most of the enslaved Africans were from Ghana. Ghana also has the highest number of slave forts/dungeons in Africa; about 33 I think, so there's a lot of preserved "slave history" here. The first European structure to be built on the African continent The Elmina slave dungeon is also in Ghana PANAFEST and Emancipation Day, 2 strong African diaspora tourism initiatives instituted during Rawlings' regime also bring/brought in significant African diaspora tourists in the past. Etc etc. There's a solid reason for Ghana's tourism numbers |

mdntiri:The highlighted is simply for tuorism. Ghana has preserved her pre colonial sites better than most continental west African countries. Not everyone is happy making money from a shameful past. I'm hearing for the first time that Elmina slave dungeon is the first structure built by the Europeans in Africa. I know countries like Morocco, Gambia, Cape Verde, Senegal, Tunisia, Libya, Algeria and Egypt are closer to Europe geographically than Ghana, so it's very likely Europeans got to these places before other parts of Africa. So I wonder where you are getting your Elmina story from.. Also don't forget that parts of Spain is in Africa, that's Ceuta and Melilla, Morocco and Spain has been intermingling with each other even before slavery. |

sweetmelanin:You and those people paying you for this are mad . Why don't you pack your belongings and go there and stay you will say NO . I'm curious why don't you people move there and leave us alone here. If you're into music, Film making, Comedy and other small businesses you will know that a disgruntled Nigeria is better than that Ghana. Same Ghanaians that were crying every day for Nigerians to recognise and patronise them . Mumu |

giANT, my azz nigeria is a giANT? in what? stvpidity, uselessness in big-for-nothing? abeg, I no wan laugh ![]() how much gas does nigeria supply to Ghana? Do you know the amount of gas Ghana produces from its own gas fields? you are a leaner stop disgracing yourself, huh? You are very ignorant and ill-informed Ask your NNPC howm much gas they supply to Ghana in 2022. Ghana is even flaring 50 MMscf/d of gas because our own fields are overproducing natural gas. That gas deal is a long term contract otherwise Ghana would have uprooted the damn pipes and sent it to you mudder fuggerx. Soon Ghana will be supplying gas to nigeria sef oh dear oh dear[s] Multiplier7:[/s] |

Kinematics:I'm sure you've googled Elmina castle's veracity by now. It's one of the oldest European built structures outside Europe, the oldest European built structure in subsaharan Africa. It was built in 1482 by the Portuguese, and it's still surviving up till now. It's a world heritage site. |
| Re: Why Ghana Is Better Than Nigeria by mdntiri(m): 11:14pm On May 16, 2022 |
Multiplier7:The West Africa gas is a consortium of companies from all 4 beneficiary countries Nigeria, Benin, Togo, Ghana. Ghana owns 16.3 %, Benin and Togo 2 % each and Nigeria the rest of the percentage. |

PetroDolla2020:You sound ignoramus most at times! I know it's good to defend your country but don't do it sheepishly. Nigerians control your economy. If we should cut the economic ties, Ghana is a goner! Compare your village Ghana to Togo. I won't mention your neighbours Ivory Coast because they're way better. Meanwhile hope you're watching the news? Wion to be precise |

sweetmelanin:Nigeria was never a forefront for afrobeat/African entertainment and culture. Fela Kuti was a noisemaker and never was a member of the group that brought Afrobeat to Nigeria. Gold Coast (Ghana) was the original home of Afrobeat. |

mdntiri:I don't need to Google what I know is a fat lie. That's a tales by moonlight story. Anybody can claim anything. I know if you go to most countries you'll hear their own claim, just like we have in Nigeria. Some will say the Europeans first landed in Lagos, some will say no it was in escravos, others will say no, it was in Bonny and some will say it's a lie it was in Calabar. No one true story... |

Kinematics:The Elmina one is INCONTROVERTIBLE FACT. it's a WORLD HERITAGE SITE for God's sake. HISTORY BOOKS spoke of this fact before the advent of the internet. Even Vasco Da Gama was in Elmina on his way to the southern tip of Africa. The Portuguese bypassed the Senegal's etc and built the "dungeon" in then Gold Coast because it had plentiful gold, they met "reasonable" people etc etc Are you not the same ekinematics on youtube channels who's anti Ghana? I don't expect you to acknowledge any Ghana "win" |
| Re: Why Ghana Is Better Than Nigeria by Kinematics: 8:41am On May 17, 2022*. Modified: 9:10am On May 17, 2022 |
mdntiri:[/s] I'm not arguing whether Elmina is a world heritage center or not. I believe you know that before the Portuguese got to Elmina they were already in Senegal(from which they started their African adventure) Gambia, Mauritania, Sierra Leon and Guinea? Hope you know they built a fortress in island of Anguina way before even stepping foot in the then gold coast? Hope you know they already owned Cape Verde even before heading southwards to Gold coast and then to Fernando Po's Island Aka Bioko island. I know your own history started from when the Portuguese landed in Ghana and built a base there just to mine gold. Learn to learn your history complete. First you claimed Elmina was the first place Europeans landed in Africa. Later you edited your comment to Sub-Saharan Africa after you saw that you have miss fired, now you are spilling half history here. Go and look at the dates of the Portuguese expedition to Africa. Keep lying to yourself. |

no wonder nigeria today is a shambolic sh1thole tell me, how many hours of electricity do you get in that zoo? what is life expectancy in Nigeria? are you aware Nigeria is officially the poverty capital of the world? people get kidnapped in that smelly zoo for a ransom of a bottle of coke and gala ![]() Abegi, Ghana is not the reason why Nigeria is what it is today. carry your frustrations to aso rock, huh? Nonsense! You control Ghana's economy? and yet you mudder fuggerx were crying when Ghana started closing down your shops in Ghana? a deluded goat in sifia pain [s] Multiplier7:[/s]
