rvp2018: The data quoted relates to when double track started - about 2-3yrs ago. The cheap potshots should at least be cerebral. You are starting to sound like your fellow country men. Angry and Stupid. Deadly combination. I bet you can even burst a vein or worse your bile.
Engage in sound arguments. Data for data. You become abusive when you are beaten.
Did you read it ? You just quoted USA Embassy's report without reading? does it make sense?
Didn't you see the report talking about Ghana's Education around 2003/2004/2005/2007 and 2009?
So why would a sane person compare his present to another man's past? You are not well in your head
rvp2018: As long as I quote the figures; Your rage is misplaced. I didn't invent those figures. I did quick research and those are the figures that come up. Now find us the most authoritative source of information. I know kenya data in and out. Of course I don't know about Ghana. And this is where you come in....minus the rat soup farts.
Exactly, you are a confirmed lunatic.
You don't know Ghana's Stats yet you were busily concocting figures here, and you were proud doing it.
rvp2018: Mobius is desigend, built, name it in Kenya. They only buy a generic engine and gear. It's built for kenya conditions. Tough as nails. It's not a double bootlegged china car. China bootlegs european and american cars - then Ghana's Kantanka goes ahead to bootleg China.
A big joke.
For his mass production, Yes, he imports some of the car parts but you sounded like he "cannot" or he "doesn't" manufacture cars at all, but rather, he assembles them .
Kantanka manufactures some locally, and he assembles some to, so get the difference.
Your people import engine but Kantanka manufactures engines.
rvp2018: This rant is not helpful again. There are at least 75,000 Nigerians in Ghana universities. Ghana total enrollment is 300,000. Those figures I read and quoted.
Says who?
Why don't you prove with Evidence?
Nobody refutes that Nigerians make up the highest number of foreign students in Ghana but they don't even make up 5% of University students in Ghana.
And they are in the Private Universities.
Don't sit in your slum and be manufacturing figures okay.
rvp2018: Look like they have decent number of Junior high school -- these are the number for both public and private. Junior high schools 6,418 Senior high schools 475 - (now 700?) Polytechnics 10 - laughable.
rvp2018: The number that is verifiable is 700. So they decided to do rotation. one bunch go to school for half year then go back to watching goats. then next lot goes in. It's hilarious. No wonder they sound daft.
Cheap liar,
Even-though many Private Secondary school were not approved for the Free SHS program, the Ministry of Education approved over 870 SHS schools in 2017, but the number has increased due the addition of some new Public Day Schools.
rvp2018: Kenya did census last year - we were 47.5m. You're using projections that don't capture our very successfully family planning and population control.
Now I have see your stats - and they are very horrible.
You only have 700 (maybe 1,200) secondary schools : what happened? Who died? Are you that poor? That stupid.
Kenya has 10,000 secondary schools. The primary schools are I think 30,000.
Why would you miss a desk? It's just a piece of wood?
Hobbit - please for god sake build schools everywhere.
You can continue lying but the facts won't change,
rvp2018: Ghana is truly a horrible place. 700 secondary schools only . Kenya has more than 10,000 secondary schools.
The minister noted that about 804 different infrastructure projects were currently ongoing across all 700 schools in the country, adding that majority of the projects were concentrated in the 395 schools operating under the 'Double Track' programme.
In 2017, SHS in Ghana were over 880,
Over 40 new Day SHS infrastructures were ready for enrollment of students.
And over the past 3 years, Government has built more infrastructures in all the existing SHS to expand their capacity so they can admit more students.
Before you make such conclusions,ask yourself
How big your Senior High Schools are? Consider the number of students in each schools as well?
rvp2018: I actually took care of that - Ghana is about 30m - kenya 48m. It should be roughly 0.65%. I expect when Kenya is at 1M - Ghana is around 650.
You're doing very badly - well double track is good band aid - but invest in building high schools.
In 2019, students in SHS 1 and 2 under the free SHS program were 800,00+ and the Education ministry's projection for the next academic year (2019-2020) was 1.2Million students in SHS alone.
rvp2018: Actually Ghana you need to start from primary schools. 375,000 students graduating primary (BECE) is small number. I think kenya we typical have 1M plus kids graduating primary (KCPE = BECE).
So if you consider the population of Kenya and Ghana - you should be graduating 700,000 primary kids every year.
It appears 50% of Ghanian kids are not making to end of primary school.
So your problems are VERY VERY VERY BASIC.
Out lucky 50% - who make it to the end of primary school - 60% don't have any desk in high schools.
And the solution is to half-baked education where kids go in turns - go home for 3 months - double track.
When it come to university and colleges - look like enrollment is decent 300,000 - but how many Nigerians are in that number? Nearly 1/3 - 75,000 - let add other foreigners - so essentially you're talking 200,000 - a very small number indeed.
In single year - Kenya gov sponsored students are nearly 150,000.
Don't stay in your slums and manufacture figures?
Public Universities in Ghana are highly competitive okay?
Let me Educate you,
University of Ghana is the Public University with the highest number of Foreign or Nigerian students in Ghana, and Foreign students do not even make up to 5% of the entire student population in University of Ghana talk-less the other institutions.
The truth is, many nigerian students don't get admission into our Public Universities,
Majority of them are in our Private Universities(smaller universities). They don't even make up to 10% of the entire student population in the Private Universities(bigger Uni's) in Ghana so stop lying.
You can do your personal findings on the number of foreign students in these big Private Universities in Ghana.
Valley View University Central University Ashesi University Presbyterian University Methodist University Catholic University Christian Service University Garden City University Pentecost University Islamic University Etc
Nigerians make up the highest number of Foreign students in Ghana but they aren't up to even 5% of the entire University student population in Ghana.
Check out the University of Ghana Statistics on their students in 2016 below
rvp2018: Actually forget about it - you should focus on building high schools - look like Ghana problems are VERY basic. You still need double-track
You have 375,000 students graduating BECE - and only 150,000 available spaces in high school . Shocking! so more than 200,000 students graduating from primary schools don't have any high school to proceed.
No wonder you're doing double track
MY FRIEND - you're fu.cked. Please focus on building high schools. Kenya we are at 99% primary-secondary transition. We came to Ghana to make that 1% get to 100%. Universal primary to secondary transition - first in Africa.
https://gh.usembassy.gov/education-culture/educationusa-center/educational-system-ghana/ Senior Secondary School/Senior High School: 375,000 Ghanaian students take the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) at the end of JHS Form 3 (ninth grade) in seven subjects. Admission to Senior Secondary/High School is competitive: only 150,000 students can be admitted into the 500 public and 200 private national secondary schools
So you are happy showing your dumbness to everyone?
We are in 2020 yet you are using 2009 figures to buttress your point? Are you okay in your head?
See, no amount of falsehood from "you" will change the horrible situations facing kenyan's.
We have over 900 SHS schools, and over 300,00 SHS final year students completing school next week.
So where from that 150,00 figures of SHS students? And your 375 BECE final year students?
Moreover, in Ghana, we don't do "a whole sale" promotion of students, they repeat some. Before you get to form three, you will need to pass your form two exams so the higher you go, the more the number decreases.
Who in his/her right senses will use 2003/2004/2005/2009/2010 reports of another country to compare 2020 performance or figures of his country? I guess you are the only person who will do that
popizaino: Ancient of days the story went like this .The woman in question killed her two children because the husband was only giving her 20ghc per week to take care of the kids so she got frustrated and decide to poison the children to avenge the husband inability to fend more which begs the questions if the daily minimum wage of 80ghc were to be true and every Ghanaian were gain fully employed will she had some what she did ?
So per your understanding, "minimum wage" means every Citizen is gainfully employed by Government or someone? so everyone should be receiving some salary every month?
I thought you said you live in Ghana?
Don't you see some people hustling? Do they take salary from somewhere?
