Rich African merchants and Colonial figures had them in their homes.

You are a very dumb fellow. You just posted a link that countered your claim.
This is from the same link you posted, abi you did not open the link you posted to read ni?
“ However, It took more than 20 years for African countries to follow the order and finally be able to set up and broadcast programs in English and any other popular or national local languages.”
Just30: Did anyobe say tv were coloured at that time?
You've forgotten that as early as the 1930s there were a lot of tv sets all over west Africa but there werent stations available to make them useful until ZOY TV station was launched in Ghana to make black and white TV sets which were just decorations in rich merchants homes in Ghana useful.
There were no TV set in any part of the world talk more of Africa in 1930.
The only TV available at that time were experimental set in research institute in Germany.
POKUASI2: I think humanity needs to come together stop these people from procreating because, imagine people with brains like these marry outside their witch coven and mix their blood with people from other countries.. just imagine how dense and dumb the children will be. The first TV station in their country is GTV.. there was no TV stations before Gtv was established and this one went pulling nonsense from his stench emitting a.nus. tell us mumuman, when was the first time TV signal was broadcasted in your zuu?
He actually Quoted their first Radio-station and he didn't even realize it.
What a bizarre someone, he does not even know his country history.
Just30: Just a little education for you This means Ghana had a tv station 10 years plus before Nigeria. Don't let it infringe on your pride, it's just the fact that at the time, to really begin something you had to be in Ghana.
I like how you Nigerians like to claim the successes of others You've moved from Afrobeat to how Ghana taught you production of movies to now tv ?
I'm sure the first tv station in Africa will probably be in Egypt or somewhere up north.
Now stop misquoting Reg on his hip hop claim and get it in the right context. Everyone knows the Reg started the Hip hop movement in Ghana and Jay z and Beyonce credit him for that.
You don't have to be desperately ignorant all the time... But I don't expect much from children of poverty Born in Baby Making Factories..... Ain't that poetic justice
Did you even read the Screenshot you posted?
How did Station ZOY a Radio Station becomes a TV station, Are you ignorant on your own Country History?
Nigeria had the first TV station in Africa, followed by Egypt, It's not an hidden secret, you can research on it online.
Hip-Hop did not start in Ghana!!Is something wrong with you guys in that country?
POKUASI2: PIP: In 1959, the regional government of Western Nigeria established the 1st television station in Nigeria and in Africa. Even though it promoted the station as a means to educate the people about development and the world, it initially served as a means for an opposition leader to address the people of Western Nigeria. The regional governments of Eastern and Northern Nigeria and the federal government in Lagos followed and started their own TV stations in the early 1960s. All 4 of these stations basically existed to serve partisan political objectives for the various governments. Any stations established after these 4 continued this same political and regionalistic heritage.
These are history that predates some of these dense children of the IMF born in witch camps.. How do you teach a people who have been doing original theater production showcasing their culture how to make films for crying loud. A country that had a terrestrial TV station 6years before you know what TV is..
I’m surprised by the Ghanaians, where are they getting all these fantasy from? Imagine believing you founded Rap music.
Obaaderemi2: The Nigerian guys are actually telling you the truth. Cinema and filmmaking are older in Nigeria than in Ghana. If you are talking about the colonial Cinema, it started here in 1903 at Glover Hall and it was even a Nigerian, Herbert Macaulay who started it when he invited a Spanish film group to show their work here in Lagos for the colonial masters and a few elite Nigerians. Films were made in Nigeria as far back as 1926 featuring Nigerian actors with Nigerian storylines.
Don't even talk about independent filmmaking. Ola Balogun and Ogunde were doing that long before Ghanaians. Ghanas first independent film was in 1981 or something.
Those ones you call veteran Nigerian actors are actually baby actors. The veterans were Ogunde, Afolayan and Baba Sala. They're dead and long buried. Not the ones that started acting in the 80s and 90s.
I'm not saying Ghanaians learnt anything from Nigerians in terms of entertainment but this idea of trying to equate Ghana's history of entertainment with Nigeria's is not going to ever fly. Good morning.
Except for the Mali and the North Africans, no other African countries has such a deep film making history as Nigeria.
Movies like Alake, Bound for Lagos, Moral Disarmament. We’re produced in Nigeria before we even gain independence.
Look at the Gliver memorial Hall, it has been refurbished though.
IGpro1: stop hiding your emotions behind emojis. if it isn't about how Ghanians always play down or claim other people's achievement you have no reason to quote me then. Go back to my first post today.
And about the veterans you keep yapping about, you know Nollywood built your defunct Gollywood, and your most successful actors then, featured in many Nollywood movies and that made them even popular in Ghana.
My point is your success doesn't depend on the fall of others. and stop claiming other people's success.
The inferiority complex is something else.
Imagine telling everyone that the reason your neighbor is rich is because of you, but you yourself remain poor. What a weird attitude.
When I knew something is wrong, is when they even started claiming they founded Rap music.
vankelvin: Did you listen to what the man said in the video? The man was categorical in his statement so listen to what he said again
It's obvious you are not ready to know the truth and that's very typical of a Nigerian
Growing up I thought this man was a Ghanaian because he was always playing the fetiest priest roles in our movies.
If Nigerians want to know the truth you should gather all your veteran artists and actors and asked them about Who taught who in music and movies Even that I know some of you will still not accept the truth because I have watched a video where one of your old music promoters said Nigeria learnt music from Ghana Guess what? the comment section is now an insult battlefield
From music to movies you now carry Year of return and our mInisters issue enter this matter. Very typical of you
There has never been a time in history where Nigerian filmmaker went to Ghana to learn filmmaking, it never happened.
Nigeria has the earliest cinema in Africa, earlier than even South Africa!!
That version of history where Ghana help Nigeria develop the entertainment industry only exist in the mind of deluded Ghana, stop trying to attach yourselves to every success story, it makes you look bizarre and greedy.
Create and develop your own industry, others people success is not a result of your own hard work.
No Nigerian will claim that the success of the year of return has anything to do with Nigeria, stand on your own two feet, stop attaching yourself to others, and stop listening to all those failed star in your country who thinks Nigeria is responsible for their failure.
vaxx: Oh kord, we need the raps time back. Where real talent exist . Not this afropop time that anybody can just seat anywhere and sing anything so far instrument is available to enhance the sound and tunes..
vankelvin: Most of you Nigerians speak as if your country has dominated the entertainment scene since ever. We all know that Nigeria currently dominates the music and movie industries, no one has disputed that but it's also a fact that Ghana and South Africa have also had their reign before so enjoy your reign now for you cannot tell what will happen in the next decade
Lol, Nigeria has had a robust movie industry since independence.
Nigeria entertainment reign is not going anywhere, we have the market at home, we have the largest diaspora market to spread our voice abroad.
vankelvin: My problem with you is your incessant stupid arguments.
Is it in dispute that Ghana has better sports facilities than Kenya? If not stupidity why would a grown ass man like you post pictures of ordinary parks and Accra stadium which obviously those pitches have not been watered during this dry season to challenge what I said time past?
This is how your Abuja stadium was like some 2 years ago so can we equally say Kisimu stadium at the time was better than Abuja stadium? Sometimes you need to think small
Even your Teslim Balogu, Kano and Enugu Stadiums have had terrible pitches at some point in time
GeneralDae2: These are just social media reports, not verifiable yet. I don't think the Dangote refinery would kick off before June or even September 2023, but I hope this news is true.
Operation will probably begin in the 3rd quarter of this year, but buhari term is coming to an end, he will want to commission this project next to add to his achievement, same thing that is being done to the Lagos intra city rail.
The Refinery will generate 12,000 MW of electricity, that’s 4x More electricity than the whole of Kenya generate, and more electricity than the whole of east Africa is generating currently.
The Dangote oil refinery has finally been completed and will be commissioned by the President of Nigeria �� on the 24th of this month (January) 2023.
Here are Top 10 facts about this humongous project:
1. The Dangote oil and petrochemical refinery is a 650,000 Barrel-Per-Day (BPD) oil refinery. It is the largest single train oil refinery on planet earth, the largest in Africa, the 7th largest oil refinery in the world. It is capable of meeting the energy demands for both Nigeria�� and the entire continent of Africa.
2. Dangote announced he would want to build a refinery in 2013, at that time, it would cost $9 billion. It was not untill 2016 construction started.
3. The Refinery was originally meant to be built in the oil producing state of Ondo but due to lack of political will from the Ondo State Government, Dangote moved the project to Lagos state.
4. The Refinery along with the Petrochemical plant is expected to generate $20 billion yearly for Nigeria.
5. The Refinery will reposition Nigeria as an energy hub globally.
6. The Refinery has the longest subsea gas pipeline in the world with a length of 1100km.
7. The Refinery will generate electricity of up to 12,000MegaWatts.
8. The Refinery is a $25 billion investment, the largest single investment carried out on the African continent by an individual and the most expensive industrial complex in Africa and perhaps the world.
9. The refinery will produce 50,000,000 litres of Euro-V quality gasoline and 17,000,000 litres of diesel daily, as well as aviation fuel and plastic products.
10. It will provide 135,000 permanent jobs and overall 300,000 direct and indirect jobs.
Bonus facts: The Dangote Oil Refinery will have a Nelson complexity index of 10.5 which means that it will be more complex than most refineries in the United States (average 9.5) or Europe (average 6.5). (The world's largest refinery, the Jamnagar Refinery in India, has a complexity of 21.1).
The Refinery has the most piles for its pile foundation on the planet.
The refinery is situated on 10 standard football fields.
ProblemChild1: Most of Nigeria musicians are from poor background. Nigerian musicians are hustlers. They pushed their music carrier to the top level. If you promote your song very well, you will blow in Nigeria. Like you said, music is a business in Nigeria. If I get money I can feature any artist I want with my money and promote the song very well with my money. Bloggers will also help you after paying them. It's not about record labels bros.
Like!!
There’s this guy oladips, he sign onto a record label owned by reminisce, released one popular song and thought he’s already a super-star, and forgot that he still need to put in the work, now he is nowhere to be found.
