We don't do well in football but our tiny counties are building nice stadiums.
Stadiums are not meant for football only

do you know that a large chunk of Cameroon left Nigeria?
That Cameroon and Nigeria share many ethnic groups?
But this is not enough to say they have a lot of things in common with West Africa?


Your argument is more about the tribes living on the borders of Nigeria-Cameroon but you forgot that there are other tribes living on the other side of the borders that share a lot of things in common with Cameroon too.

Mind you, Cameroon shares borders with
Nigeria
Chad
Congo Republic
Equatirial Guinea
Gabon
Central African Republic

Nigeria is the only West African country, the remaining are Central African countries so how can they share a lot of things in common with West Africa?

it should actually be called a west African country
It has more ties with the west that the central African countries

Just like Mauritania should be called a north African country
Which kind of ties be that?

They deserve some applauds because they've really invested a lot into their sports infrastructures..

Now Cameroon is ahead of Ghana when we speak of Stadiums. Very impressive cool


But on a serious note,
I wonder why people still refer to Cameroon as a West African Country? Can't they do a little research on that grin

AKENTEN APPIAH-MENKA UNIVERSITY OF SKILLS TRAINING AND ENTREPRENEURIAL DEVELOPMENT (AAMUSTED) FORMALLY UNIVERSITY OF EDUCATION WINNEBA (UEW) IS A PUBLIC ACCREDITED UNIVERSITY AND STILL RUNNING SAME PROGRAMMES AND EVEN INTRODUCED NEW PROGRAMMES.

Short History

It operated initially as a department of the Kumasi Polytechnic. In 1963 the constructional works for a permanent site started and was completed in early 1966.

In 1992 the Government Ghana per it's educational reforms decided to make COLTEK a satellite campus to University Of Education Winneba.

Mko abiola stadium back to life. I'm silently praying for Ghana to not be able to host the all Africa games so that they can move it to Abuja samw way Kenya failed to host chan.

They started changing the pitch same time with the other national stadium in Lagos, but the security at the Lagos stadium would not let anybody close to take pictures or videos, but the pitch should be something like this too.
Like host cities will be
Abuja
Lagos and
Uyo right?

Currently Kumasi Stadium, Takoradi stadium are undergoing some renovation works.

They are working hard to complete the University of Ghana stadium.

Cape Coast and Accra Stadiums are ready waiting for All African Games so it will be a big news should Ghana fail to host this tournament.

Facts are very stubborn things.

KPMG has standard rates - if you average Africas 14, Asia 12, america 13, europe 20, eu 19 - it's 15 percent.

Mr. Lunatic use 2021 figures not 2011 figures. You are always fond of twisting and manipulating figures.

Even with your own figures you have to lie to make a point?

Whether we believe this your data or not is also a different topic for another day. grin

Another west African bonobo. The standard vat rate in world is 15 percent. That is the average. VAT has nothing to do with currency or wages. Wages is PAYE or income tax.

Before we lose the point in your habitat - the zoo - kenya charging 16 percent - do not therfore overtax it citizen - which was obaboon lame excuses to explain why Nigeria and Kenya have same revenues with all oil inclusive

So genius you think I know many things except such basic facts that you're belaboring?

This is what I wrote - The standard VAT rate in the world is around 15 percent.

That statement is very factual. Two key words - standard and around - I would have used either - but I double down hoping you wont start this kind of juvenile infantile ranting.
You are too close minded.
There's nothing like World Standard VAT rate anywhere. Not all currencies nor wages are the same so VAT around the World can't have Standards.

Stop judging issues with your timid Kenyan mentality. Broaden your horizon by learning new things from others.

what countries US embassy is this??

It makes me wonder if it is kind of what they I tend to build with the land the secured at eko Atlantic. So far the only information out there is that it would be a compound(something like this). What's confusing is that eko Atlantic is reserved who high rise buildings and who spends so much money to purchase land there to build something so small.
I don't know what you are talking about but
Embassy Court Estate is just a name given to the property for marketing purposes

Below is the man behind that property.
That's just one of his many properties in Accra.

Name: Kojo Jones
Just 32 years of age

He is the C. E. O of Empire Group of Companies

Another absurd submission from Mr ding dong grin - so boring and weak. Why are you this slow to learn? I corrected you immediately you dropped that jargon and the only retaliation you gave was to rant more in attempt to save face.

Go to Google or your phone dictionary and search the word 'hog pen' - screenshot it here with its meaning and stop playing dumb cool.
Heal, dude heal

You are trying so hard to put words together but it still doesn't make sense

Dangote is making a kill both ways. Concrete roads are expensive. He is not paying taxes and he is selling cement. Meanwhile the rest of Nigeria look like this.

14 hours journey takes 78 days - truckers sleep 10 days on some section
Yes concrete roads are expensive but durable and smooth. Paying or not paying taxes are non of your business dude.

No amount of antics will save you from this, ding dong. For the last time, there is no word in English like 'hog pen', learn today or wallow in dimwitness.

You really tried to string a punchline in second paragraph but it lost sense in the second line while trying to emphasize it. I mean, why should you write all those mind-numbing details only to pin point the weak emboldened point? grin

Allow me to be frank with you also. You are the true definition of a Hobbit. Those people don't have braincells, I conducted a case study on your brother 'muzzerfugurz' and I concluded that a normal Ghanaian of a grand scheme of things is a buffoon playing below the average man's IQ.
Dude, you learnt something called *Hog pen* from me today so shut up.

Initially you thought I was referring to a *writing pen* which was or looked like *hog* hence your dismay and tantrums. But after your thorough Google search the meaning of hog pen hit you so hard that you've now reduced from your low level to zero.

Good luck next time

Dangote Construction and Hitech Construction Companies delivered this project on behalf of the Federal Government of Nigeria. for the construction of 10lanes 35km Apapa-Oworonshoki Expressway (the longest and widest concrete highway in Africa): this would have been repeated 1 million times if it were to be from Kenya grin grin grin

Federal government should award more projects like this to local contractors. Nigeria wins

concrete highways the way to go
