You wished everyone country will stay with Kenya in it underdevelopment status
But everyone is leaving you behind.

Get used to it and develop your country

Ghana fiscal space is way better than Kenya

When you get mpr of 7% in year 2050 come and engage us

how is this collaborate with the first question you ask? you just want to exposed your dossier knowledge of economics again.

Ghana Monetary Policy Rate has been reduced from 16 to 14.5%, for your update...this is not Kenya.

kenya mpr is 7%.I am talking of interest rate you mother or sister get in Ghana.Otherwise you'll continue with Western Union for them to get by

Just30:
you know not what you are talking about

we export oil
The 1.7 Trillion cubic feet gas reserves will be used to power Ghana

You first have to deal with excess power.It doesn't work that way.There is demand and supply side.First of all think about coming big payment demand from n-gas this year

Having smart people is one of the reasons Nigeria has been able to build Africa's largest economy. Smart people are resources as well, but I guess that fact is wasted on you. That's why the only thing you've been able to do since yesterday is name calling and insults.

Nope having large population and oil is all you need to thank otherwise Nigeria is getting poorer and poorer despite having sold more than a trillions dollars of oil.Typical year oil bring 80B dollars and you have nothing to be proud of or show..hence Nigeria obsession with taking pride in families that are in diaspora

vaxx:
what is wrong with it. Ghana is producing more than what she can consumed? why will she not export the left over .

And what has IMF been busy doing all these years bailing out Ghan.They could be helping Chad or Niger or CAR.Ghana will not go anywhere until it understand what prudent financial management or financial responsibility is.Nowhere.Get an handle of your macroeconomics first..reduce interest from freaking 25% to 15%

Just30:
fiscal responsibility does not power an economy, energy does

You're exporting energy for others to power their economy with it

According to WIPO Nigerian last year filed only 120 patents..200m zoogerians.On average the last few years you're filling about 100 or less.Just think about the brain drain you're celebrating

Let Kenya and the others post their most brilliant minds here! We've had enough of trees, roads and buildings. I am sure Kenya would come up short again.

We are discussing policy and national issues..and you want us to discuss individuals and families.How does 5 doctors in a family help the poverty capital where people are dropping dead.How comes you elected a president who did Not even finish primary schoo.Obaboon try to get civilised.

All over sudden, you've run out of words. We don't have a word limit here.

Just30:
you are funny oo

try harder

Bretton wood doesn't have a team of folks collecting data. I have worked with them. They take whatever you tell them as gov of Ghana. If you say you're doing well - they will report that. All IMF & WB ever do is to aggregate data into global reports - get data for Ghana, Kenya and then produce global reports - so never really attribute any data to IMF or WB.

Of course like you've come to discover in those 16 times you've gone bankrupt - data means nothing on the ground - that is why only stupid nations like Ghana lie about their numbers - or allows politicians to lie about ROSY FIGURES.

You're just back to you communist bad manners - your communist friends like USSR/Tanzania/China - use to LIE A LOT IN 60s and 70s on how great communism was leading to AMAZING PRODUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT.

They all fell down about 10-20yrs later.....others like China, North Korea & etc....went into great famines that killed lots of people.

vaxx2:
You are oozing so much emotions than a wet cùnt. Britton wood says we are better than you ....in social life and and in human development...... Argue with them....

Once you get into hyperinflation once - it very difficult to fully recover - Argentina, Zimbabwe, Ghana - will find it hard to recover from that crisis of confidence. Ghanaians just don't trust their CEDIS. They can as well use dollars and forget about internal currency for some time..until the present generations forget about what Cedis did to them previously.

It's not valuable, it's redenominated and losing value fast. It is unstable. A zimbabwe dollar in the making.

IMF Terrorists have really done you in. So much you come here and claim they are in Ghana to offer advisory/technical assistance. Egypt went through a civil war - and their country grinded to a halt. I am sure they hate every minute of being under IMF and so does Greece. Thankfully for Egypt - they have their Arabs brothers bailing them out and US too. Now Ghana you're under the mercy of IMF Terror Squad.

vaxx2:
You suffer beyond inferiority complex. The basic cognitive prerequisite to engage in factual debate seems beyond your intellectual circumference.

We're talking about Electicity rate as a standard in determining of infracture and you're yapping IMF . Unbalanced patriotism has damaged your sense of reasoning. IMF works in Ghana just as it is currently working in Egypt. Double track works in Ghana just as it works in Austria and Netherlands and regarding schools, we have built what you were unable to built in the last four years

The sheer length of your meaningless doodles only prove how desperate you are trying to prove yourself. But you ended up sounding like an ill-exposed anencephalic dingbat from kenya


Ghana Cocoa export for a year will generate what you make on tea export for three years and more...


now feed your eyes on what type of school we built...... over 100 of it were built last three years and more than 30 of them have been built this year alone ....

Put the numbers here. Sound argumentation 101. What kind of schools do you guys go to? I have been to many Kenya forums - I have never seen people as dense as the west Africans here. Well, I exaggerated, of course, we have our poorly educated Tanzanians.

Just30:
keep post blogs

this is their website
http://www.nhis.gov.gh/about.aspx

you'll get the number of people on the scheme

i dont want you to keep making a fool out of yourself

That makes some sense. Any picture of those communal houses? How does that work? You get one community meter?

Just30:
except SA family unit is more of an individualistic kind of living

communal living is what Ghana have
whereby the family setting is not individualistic

so your analogy does work here.



the communities left for Ghana to connect are either border towns or island communities
and those provisions where made in our 2020 budget.

1,000MW I am quoting is what you told me the Aluminimum processing gets. I was willing to take you on your highest despite your lack of good reputation. Honestly considering how you hurl the most tasteless of insults I should have known better. Your next assignment is to make your base insults a little cerebral. You'll get a lot more respect here.

vaxx2:
I have repeated this many times to you? our mining industry is not power consumable. it is underdeveloped. go CHECK on mining industry in Ghana and give us the actual figure ... even our bauxite has never been mined at industrial level. what we do here is local mining which the goverment is trying to modernise. you can't debate what is simply more than your wisdom ... who ever graduate Yorubas degree holder should be jailed . you dissapoint whatever is called education .


Ghana peak demand can be check on Ghana energy commission websites. you this dimwit. we aren't on the same track. compare kenya with valco an aluminium industry in Ghana

I am now beginning to understand your excitement on all the basic free social things. You see unlike most Africans who only remember IMF terror during SAP in 80s/90s (Structural Adjustment Prog) - you've been under 16 SAPS; Just imagine that. IMF has come 16 times and as always proposed austeristy measures that mean cutting back on budget spending on education, health, social welfare etc. Do you even have a functional social welfare? In kenya every 65 yr old get paid a monthly stipend, every disabled, every orphan, every hunger striken....and we do NOT HAVE IMF TELL US AUSTERITY SAP

Please enroll yourself in your laughable DOUBLE TRACK where kids go for schools for 3 months and another batch come in....why not build enough schools.

Opps I forget IMF IS IN TOWN.

vaxx2:
Permit me to called you an idiot . if you failed to understand distribution ratio against the house hold pattern, how can you called yourself a software engineer? something went wrong while you are acquiring such degree, it might be bought or be favoured on you.


now take the chance of free education in Ghana which is not available in your village and harbour no discrimination to come better your life ....

You keep raising tangential issues. We can talk about peak demand. I tell you subtract what goes to mining - and come - and we can discuss what really goes to you Mama's or Papa's house in Ghana. With all GOLD/Aluminium/Bauxite processing that goes on - you peak demand is now 2,500MW. If you remove roughly 1,000MW ( I am being super fair) - you peak demand for household is about 1500MW.

vaxx2:
You have no data about the number of electricity rates Ghana is holding you dimwit. how so you question everything as if you are sound yourself.... we aren't on the same chatter of life with south africa , our industries are even not highly power consumable except the valco industries which generate its own power and consume more power than the nation kenya. you can draw from there ....

When you foolishly check the pattern of distribution, youbwull stupidly sees it is growing and it's not changing any time soon . This is yoi go school enough to understand table. arguing blindly...


in actuality , most of the power we generate are not consumed, though the distribution rate and consumption rate is growing, Firstly, there is excess electricity generation which was procured during the last regime from Independent Power Producers, including the Emergency Power Producers. Go read about it.

According to our Energy Commission, GHANA has installed power generation capacity of 5,083 MW, dependable capacity of 4,593 MW and peak demand of around 2,700 MW. So, our installed capacity is almost double our peak demand

so on average, less than 40 per cent of the contracted capacity is used, meaning that we are basically using 40 percent of the remaining 60 per cent of excess capacity which we do not actually consume.

That is good enough reason. That is better than denying the obvious like your fellow countryman Vax. What is double phase meters. In Kenya you can split a meter for multiple dwelling if they are I think some 70 feet max - but each house in say an apartment will get their own meter. Some landlords in low middle class - single rooms - can decide to have one meter - and charge rent inclusive a constant service charge...maybe that is 'double phase'?

We heard Ghana doesn't like such multiple dwelling - they prefer to live in single bungalows - but now they have double phase meters?

Just30:
It simply means that more households are sharing their double phase meters
because there is not need buying meters for each house you share a compound with.

Ghana (according to official estimate) had 6.6M household in 2014 - so now I imagine the number has risen maybe to 8M - so your REAL TRUE electricity access is worse than I thought.

Can somebody interpret your gibberish to me. How about you search in Google...Number of Households in Ghana. I use to think Ghanians had better brains...well turn out Nigerians are way better. I guess when you spend most of your childhood as famine refugee in Nigeria scavenging for food - you really couldn't read or write.

My friend - enrol yourself in your laughable - half-day school program aka ghana double track system - an afternoon of schooling will do you a lot of good.

vaxx2:
The madness start again. when the table you upload shows there is pattern of change in the house hold and house hold is growing.


if you can support your 6.5 , I will hand over the discustion

Kenya I bet is second only to South Africa when it comes to industries in Sub Saharan Africa.

Just30:
facts are facts and they expose you badly

is there a reason why there are no factories in Kenya ?

so where do the 53 million kenyans work ?


please dont tell me sex tourism

Take a break and maybe your remaining two functional brains cells won't overheat.

South Africa's Eskom consumes 30,000MW of power. But here I am comparing number of customers. Eskom has about 17M customers on their grid. All the Ghanians electricity companies have about 4M. For you to reach South Africa level...you need to double your number to 8M....that will mean you have covered all 6.5M Ghanians in their homes..not just 3.7M...and also you have covered another 1.5M office, business and kiosks.

You're about half-way - at 55% - when you get universal access - come and we shall celebrate.

Kenya is ahead of you because - we are already at 8M customers - and we are adding nearly 1.5M annually - the WORLD FATESTES ELECTRIFICATION for some years now.

vaxx2:
Now explain this madness now....

Consumption rate of electricity is not about the number of people consuming it but the rate at which the number of people consuming it spring forth ... 10 people may be consuming more than 100 people... South Africa electricity is heavily used by mining sectors our is largely house hold consumable

Of course we can and do count household. We don't have to go physical to every Ghana household like we do in Census. We just divide your total population(28.5M) with average household size (4.5) - and voila we get 6.5M.

Don't support your lying gov - that you have 85% electricity access like South Africa - YOU DONT.

Your really access at best is 50-60%.

Just30:
I guess you came to count house holds in Ghana ?


something is wrong with your head

this is the table and breakdown by each year
that is

It easy really. Ghana at 28m people is about half populated as South Africa at 56M. Ghana has the most dishonest politicians that have plunged the country into 16 IMF bailout. This is what democracy sometimes breeds. So recently they decided to cook figures and claim like South Africa they were nearly universal access.

The problem South Africa's Eskom has 16M plus customers and Ghana has 4M plus electricity customers.

kikuyu1:
I tried to tell you simpletons not to start internet intifadas with the MVP! He's a determined anthropologist unearthing lost history with his forensic data search skills. So,you're electrification rate is fake by a whole 30%-we must therefore question your real power output and everything else.

Nigeria school systems were unfair to you. They should at least refund you for the cost (if it wasn't free) and time wasted.

vaxx2:
I only submitted what make you looking an idiot, if you aren't dump yourself and understand table chart. youbcan easily changes in house hold pattern and consumption pattern frim the table you posted.

I only submitted it so that everybody can see how stupid you are ....

As of 2017 - your NHIC covered 40% - 10million - while Kenya similar scheme covers 30M (3./4 of kenyans). And we are starting UHC (universal health care).

I know you're so excited about NHIS because it's 10yrs old. Kenya's equivalent is what 60yrs old.National Hospital Insurance Fund is a State Parastatal that was established in 1966 as a department under the Ministry of Health. And we do not use our budget to fund NHIF That is why IMF IS ALWAYS BAILING YOU OUT

Since the establishment of Ghana National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) in 2003, the Government of Ghana has made substantial progress toward its goal of universal health care. As of 2014, the NHIS covered 10.5 million people, or 40 percent of Ghana's population.

vaxx2:
You are an idiot ..... health insurance scheme here is even cover by private hospitals not only goverment reserve area.... when you have a reliable budget that can fund such a social scheme than let's debate again ... show me the amount you budget for health care? let's start from there


Stop quoting blogs with me you this animal ... many blogs out there position your health care system as underdeveloped. and immature yet You don't see me here using it with you.

Is that your feeble attempt to obstuficate the issues or you're just dense.

vaxx2:
Anybody who understand basic table illustration we called you an idiot.....


This is the table to all readers...

Really - go here http://www.energycom.gov.gh/planning/energy-statistics and open the 2019 link. Explain to me why the data from your electricity distros - and from your stats office do not cross-reference? Compare it with South Africa - and stop lying to yourselves as Ghanian that your electricity acess is 85% - it's about 50-55%.

vaxx2:
i check the data , it is 2016 evidence....

This is based on 2019 - from Ghana's official Energy Commission. Next excuse, please. And congratulations - the insult per word ratio count is now zero. You're just about the enter the realm of civilization from the Zooland where humans engage in respectful civil debate.

vaxx2:
This is basically meaningless with hogwash Input which I am not not interested in engaging. simply becasuse you arw arguinh backwardly. you uoted a 2016 report when Ghana was in energy crisis... I have provided data and graph illustration to show you the house hold unit and consumption pattern has increased from 2016 to 2019 ....


in giving fact as evidence, time and date matter most.. .. you may need to go do some more research.....

The blog I use quote official data sources. Whenever there is data out there that you're aware - kindly share. I have shared a few from Ghana official sources.

vaxx2:
Emperical evidence are rested on stastical and literature evidence. not through blogging...that is why it is reasonable you quote trusted body which evidence have been used both international agency and our local goverment...

The insult per word ratio is coming down - keep it up. Your NHIS covers only 2% of the poor and 36% of current health expenditure is out of pocket.

As you can see you have a long way to go - because our NHIF which allows you to be treated in decent private & mission hospitals - already covers roughly 30M Kenyans.

Now, the 17M mostly poor kenyans have to pay out of pocket - and we are fixing that with Universal Health Care - meaning if you're so poor to go to public hospitals.

Now I got an article for you - dated 2019.

https://www.sightsavers.org/blogs/2019/08/universal-health-coverage-ghana-how-can-we-really-make-progress/
The NHIS was introduced to curb high user fees and their effect on the poorest people in rural and working environments. After more than a decade of implementation, it is estimated that less than two per cent of the poor are covered, and people with disabilities – many of whom are among the poorest of the poor – do not have any special provisions under the scheme. It is not surprising that about 36 per cent of current health expenditure is out-of-pocket payment.

vaxx2:
You talk way of point , we have over the full capacity coverage ( that is about 30 million people) our health care system cover as much as brain surgery. we aren't joking boy,we even made it easy , registration can easily be done thru your smart phone.... we have digitized our mobile sector. largest blood drone delivery service in the world.... this is in the rural areas...

our 2018 financial budgetary estimates shows that the health budget is 6.57% of GDP, and therefore less than the 15% anticipated by the ""Abuja Declaration"" our health sector, together with education, continue to be the two largest sectors of our public expenditure. we can only march north Africa in this regard....

With over GHS 19 billion which is roughly 5 billion dollar was spent last year on human assets just in the health sector. we don't joke here boy ...
