We already know MOP is measuring community access - nobody really give a damn about that kind of nonsense. It seem GSS does a better job. We wait for your delayed census - The MINI ZOO - may never afford it - to know what accurate electricity access.In 2010 - you were at 65% or around. Kenya has religiously held census every 10yrs without fail. This what give your ACCURATE data - not feel good nonsense of community access to electricity. Which explain why Ghana FAILS THE PICTURE TEST. The data looks good - but the reality on the ground as seen on video or pictures - is Chad or Niger or South Sudan. Just30: |
http://ggea.net/news/govt-settles-almost-90-of-ameri-power-debt/ This is not BOT = Proper BOT - Build operate and Transfer - for free. This is BOOT = Build, OWN, operate and Transfer. Ameri invested 500M; They made money in 5yrs; And Ghana gov bought the plant back for 500M. The plant cost US$510 million and it was to be managed by its owners for a period of five years and transferred to the Government of Ghana under the Build Own Operate and Transfer (BOOT) agreement. The Ameri deal was one of the numbers of power deals signed under the past administration which generated public anger with the then opposition New Patriotic Party accusing that administration of ripping off the nation. Speaking to energynewsafrica.com, a source at the Ministry of Energy disclosed that a little over US$447 million out of the total figure of US$ $510 million has been paid, representing about 87 per cent as of November 2020.

You think just because your blurt out nonsense daily; they somehow become the truth; Just30: |
Okay I found why you have crazy figures.....I knew something was WRONG. Warning - this is BEYOND YOUR CATHOLIC EDUCATION background,. EVOLUTION OF GHANA’S ELECTRIFICATION POLICY AND ACCESS TARGETS Electricity access definitions vary, and indeed there is more than one in Ghana alone. Two different forms of electricity access definitions are used in Ghana by recognised state institutions: the Ministry of Power (MoP) and the Ghana Statistical Services (GSS). MoP defines access to electricity in a community as the total population in the community that has been connected to the grid, irrespective of the number of households that have connection. 16 By this definition, thepopulation in the particular community is counted as having access to electricity because it is assumed that they are within reach of the grid and could connect by signing a connection agreement with the utility whenever they desired and are able to pay the appropriate connection fees. For this reason, even though MoP estimated electricity access in 2010 to be about 72% (meaning 72% of Ghana’s population lived in communities with access to the grid), GSS pegged household access to electricity in 2010 at 64.2%, according to the population and housing census conducted in the same https://backend.orbit.dtu.dk/ws/portalfiles/portal/138357483/Kemausuor_and_Ackom_draft_23.12.2015.pdf Conclusion: You have 90% community access to electricity; and about 60% for household in their dwelling places. This Ghana definition of electricity access is worse than India - at least India define it as staying 50 meters from electricity pole - even if you don't have it in your own house. Just30: |
Not comparable to Applonia or Lagos one - Far ahead - despite the land squable that delayed it. Wuoche: |
I don't see where it say Kenya has been tested. What OECD did was to compare TIMSS (Ghana participate here) and PISA. And Ghana came BOTTOM. BOTTOM. Worse than South Africa and Botswana...with their inferior education. Just30: |
Household has nothing to do with family. Household is house with people living in it. They could be unrelated roommates. - see attached for relationship btw Household Head and rest of the household. Electricity need to be connected where there are people living in it. Nobody goes sticking electricity in unoccupied houses. All we care about is how many of 7M Ghanian household have connected with electricity, water and other utilites. Long story about number of houses in Ghana (what if they are house for cows or pigs ) will not cover your gov propaganda.You know you've connected about 4M out 7M. The rest is laughable. Just30:
|
In fact I checked Ghana has never participated in PISA. It just TIMSS where they consistently come bottom - worse than South Africa ![]() |
Again evidence - quoting that from OECD is all we want. Now don't direct me to entire OECD website. Just30: |
Never seen an idiot that just keep digging Do you sometime listen to yourself.Household - be it informal or formal - urban or rural - is house that has people living in it Nobody care about houses - on their own. JESUS christ Ghana really should kick out the pope from running it's school systemWhat did they teach you - JESUS christ and holy trinity ![]() Just30: |
Again there is no evidence that PISA has administered those tests on Kenya kids. Repeating a lie will not make it a fact. They choose Ghana to basically embarrass Africans....I mean even kids from middle east..beat your kids senseless. SACMEQ and PISA are the same test. The results will be the same. If you come bottom; you'll be bottom in all of them; like Ghana. As for Ghanian working in NASA and such Nigeria type of NONSENSE - how is that helping GHANA ![]() Just30: |
But seriously I find the average Ghanian here to be worse than this mad-man. How do they behave in their county? popizaino: |
Again for umpteenth time, household, is house with people. Nobody cares about houses or structure. Electricity access - household with electricity. Therefore meters plus illegal connected household should match with gov stats. or Propaganda. This example of South Africa report According to its General Household Survey (GHS), in 2012, 1.45-million, or 11%, of South African households did not have access to electricity, while another 3.6%, or 578 005, households accessed electricity informally or illegally. Just30: |
Why Not SACMEQ and PISA AND TIMSS AND NAME It - all TEST THE SAME THING - basic maths and english/language proficiency for primary school kids - the results will be the same - there is nothing complicated about those tests. You can use South Africa and Botwana - Botswana beat South Africa in all - including SACMEQ. Kenya of course is the top dog by far. South Africa beat Ghana in all the test and yet in SACMEG - they scored 60% while kenya kids scored almost 90%We can therefore conclude Ghana kids would score about 50% - while kenya kids of similar age will score 90%. Just30: |
Now you shifted the target to 4.7M - after realizing your gov propaganda is just meant to hoodwink Ghanians?Where is evidence that Ghana has 5M houses. Ghana has 7M households. House plus occupant that need to be connected to electricity. The same way MTN has millions of customer on network - is the same way we expect your utility companies to have millions (but per household - not per person) If your utility companies have very little customer base; then you have not connected every Ghanian to electricity. Just30: |
I have and there is no evidence that Kenya has even participated in those tests - where Ghana proudly sit at the bottom. Ghana - bottom Kenya - Top Just30:
|
And the data then disappeared or what. The one I have seen was 3M metered customers- about 3.5M if you include the illegal ones- and that 90% of your electricity access - so we can conclude have connected 4m out 7m household - about 60% of Ghana. Just30: |
Lame. We need a link id.ot. Just30: |
I was expecting you to show us the 4.5m customers of ECG - otherwise the verbal diarhoea is not helpful. As of 2015 - ECG had 2.6M customers - Ghana claimed to be 80% plus on electricity access. Electricity access is not only urban centers only - it everywhere - villagers and not Kenya now is about 8M out 12m household - 68% access (census data showed it) - but Gov Propaganda was claiming Kenya was at 85%. I encourage you to use the under-developed brain to fact-check your own gov propaganda. Don't start on water before we finish electricity. South Africa where you stay - has approximately 17.16 million household - and have about 16.5M electricity customers connected to Eskom and the likes.When they claim they are in 95% access - that is CREDIBLE. Just30: |
Where is evidence that kenya failed in those 3 test. Just30: |
Let's fact check Ghana electricity access propaganda The Propaganda At the start of the scheme, only 15- 20 percent of Ghana's population had access to electricity (Ministry of Power, 2016). Recent electricity access reviews have put access rates at 66.7 percent in 2009, 80.51 percent in 2015 and 82.5 percent in 2016 (Ministry of Power, 2016). The Reality 1) 2015 - The distribution of electricity is carried out by the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG), with about 2.6 million customers accounting for about 90% of retail power sales, and the Northern Electricity Corporation (NEDCo, a subsidiary of VRA) which handles the remaining 10%. 2015 - we can say they had about 3m customers or Households - roughly in country that had 6M Household connected to metered electricity - so access was 50% https://ewsdata.rightsindevelopment.org/files/documents/78/WB-P147878_Cx6pxlH.pdf |
Where is the evidence that participating in PISA, TIMSS and PERCE is stamp of authority on your education system. South Africa and Botswana participate in all that - and beat you. Kenya beat South Africa and Botwana in SACMEQ. You are bottom - and proud of it - coz they invited you to participate ![]() Kenya has built 100B dollar economy, Nairobi is your vision 2050 and name it - without any mineral, with little arable land and you think it miracle. Nope.It's our focus on education system. I have visited many Africa countries - and I am yet to find kids who are walking to school in dawn - dark - like 5 am as is normal in Kenya.Kenya kids study as hard as chinese and Indians. Just30: |
Lame. I gave you empirical data - and you're diarhoeaing nonsense. Your prose itself would pass for grade 4 Kenya essay. The average Ghanaian that we seen around here is OBTUSE and DENSE. That is why despite being literally named GOLD COAST - you remain as ever poor - meanwhile more than 10B gold is smuggled to Dubai and China annually Kenya education quality, human capital, and name it many - is many levels above Ghana. This is why Nairobi was named this week as innovation capital of Africa - and top 100 in global innovation centers. Disagree with empirical evidence...especially if we are talking 'better' education here..try to represent Ghana and cover her unclothedness \ Ghana can only beat the ZOO! That we agree. Just30: |
Heck in both SACMEQ and TIMSS - Kenya TEACHERS were the best globally In most of Africa countries - teachers cannot even score 80% of the test How can you boast of good education when you teacher cannot score 98-100% of the kids exam like they do in kenyaKenya education is so far ahead - when Tanzania hear of Kenya professional - they want to shut their borders.
|
Which one are you talking about TIMSS - you come bottom almost - and PISA was so embarrassing they kicked you out ![]() Look at Kenya TIMSS score in the graph - kenya participate in grade 4 - and don't participate in grade 8 Kenya has participated in SACMEQ (grade - with most of Southern and East Africa countries - and consistently beat South Africa/Botwana (who are in TIMSS with Ghana).You cannot reach kenya education standard this century ![]() Even this thread alone should tell you that average Ghanian argues like a Kenya grade 4 kid.

Bla de bla like always. Kenya education and human resources is definitely without doubt Africa best. There is reason why Kenya is Africa largest non mineral economy - EDUCATION. 2017, the World Economic Forum rated Kenya’s education system as the strongest on the African continent. In 2018, the World Bank ranked Kenya the top African country for education outcomes (1st out of 43 mainland countries) And the reasons are here - https://medium.com/edwell/how-kenya-became-the-strongest-education-system-in-africa-70cdc72024c4 Just30: |
Yes the guy clearly unhinged. He has reduced serious discussion here into school yard pranks. I think it best not to dignify the nonsense from such characters by responding to them. I will try ignore him going forward like I do to many of his type. We are feeding a troll. kikuyu1: |
That was only time non-kenyan didn't win - Ibandan fluke thro that - the following year it was removed in supplementary - otherwise Kenyan universities won the rest. Shaytun: |
Pathological liar. Nobody will do BOT of 5yrs. How will they recoup their investment? Quick fact-check The Bui Power Authority, which operates the Bui hydropower station, has awarded 15-year build, operate and transfer (BOT) contracts to private sector partners to finance the scheme. Just30: |
Looks good. But depend on the route chosen. Nairobi Marathon is part of Global Stanchart marathons. 68816419: |
Poor Ghanian. We studied demography in primary and junior secondary. This is like grade 12 material https://www.coursehero.com/file/65790923/FORM-FOUR-GEOG-NOTESpdf/ https://www.advance-africa.com/Geography-Notes-Form-4.html You can get free education here - would helpful - coz clearly the Pope was unfair to Ghana - what do they teach youhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pHUzsmpJE8 Just30: |

The MINI ZOO - may never afford it - to know what accurate electricity access.
- with most of Southern and East Africa countries - and consistently beat South Africa/Botwana (who are in TIMSS with Ghana).
