rvp2018: Of course they are not the same. And that is what I said. I have watched couple of videos - Ghanas are peace loving bible loving nice folks.
What you described as news is not news in kenya - every years kids in Kenya BURN SCHOOLS every year...in thousands.
Sometimes they have to close all schools as wave of school burning starts.
When I was in form 2 myself - we organized our first strike - we burnt down many things - my friends got arrested and expelled. I somehow escaped after two weeks of suspension.
In form 3 - I was finally expelled - as we organized another strike.
Like I said Kenyans are pretty hardcore. West Africans are pathological liars - soft christian bible conmen.
Kenyans took education too seriously - send kids to boarding school as early as possible - and it eventually tore it apart - kenyans got the high quality education yes - but it paid huge price - that is why exams and boardings are being almost scrapped.
What you fail to recognize is the fact that all humans can be stubborn and bad but the way the society reacts to issues have a way of controlling such manners. The recalcitrant behaviour of Kenyan students sterns on the fact of a failed society.
Ghanaians can be as bad as anybody but then our upbringing makes us to comport ourselves all the time. Also you wouldn't want your life to be truncated just because of your bad behaviour.
In summary, the difference between a Ghanaian and a Kenyan is Ghanaians are generally civilized whilst Kenyans aren't, even the way you guys dress speaks volumes
rvp2018: Like I said I dont know how things are now. I have been to universities in kenya - they look cleaner than our time Though even during our time - they were very clean except when workers left at evening.
During our time late 90s and early 2000s - our universities were center of public revolt. Public revolt against Moi dictatorship and such.
Nobody definitely would arrest a student - we were a law unto our selves. We were the freedom fighters. We wore marxist revolutionary t-shirts, we read revolutionary books, and were center of fight back to redeem our country. Unlike Ghana where military or others protest - we protested. Unlike NIgeria - if power ever went out for even 15 minutes - we would be in the streets - smashing cars.
Those were late 90s and early 2000s - Kibaki became president - brought up expelled university students - some very old.
That was our time. Nowadays things I bet have changed. They are now doing drugs and partying.
So whenever you comment make your comment make sense because Ghana and Kenya societies aren't the same for you to want to describe Ghana universities as Junior High Schools.
Just some few months ago some students of Knust and Legon took the laws into their hands and destroyed properties, as we speak there are those that are in prison, some have been expelled from the Uni's. Two old students are facing the laws in court, and to add to it their certificates have been rusticated. There are investigation still underway to fish out all the other students who weren't captured on the CCTV camera's.
Note that Ghana and Kenya are not the same and the university systems are run differently also
rvp2018: They are normally called Indian toilets; They are quite popular in kenya shared apartments...as they are easy to clean. In fact it universal toilet in rural kenya...if you dont have lots of water it better....for people to squat than sit on all the microbes. I dont know of universities using them. At UON we had standard toilets but they were dirty - and dirty is understatement. UON sit right in middle of city - and anybody can walk in.
What I gather Ghana at universities are like junior high school kids.
Kenya are pretty rough...and universities during our time were tough...that was only institution that fought moi dictatorship.
More like South Africa kids....we would go and attack police station...people died...get shot....bhang was smoked...name it.
Universities in kenya is where education FAILS completely.
90% of university kids in kenya have been taken through boarding from lower primary - age of 8yrs for some - and for first time they have FREEDOM.
99% of university kids in our time had been through boarding secondary - and for most this was their time of freedom.
That is why kenya boarding system need to be scrapped because eventually it fails as kids need to be nurtured.
Kenyans are uncivilized people and that's basically that.
We all know students in Public Universities have the tendencies of causing commotion and violence but then how society takes on these issues encourages or deters students from repeating such
In Ghana university students are allowed to do whatever they like but when they go contrary to the law they are severely punished. Even if you are an old student and you are cought causing violence on campus you will be arrested, prosecuted and your certificate will be rusticated.
gallivant: Why don't you go and create a Ghana thread because the people here ain't impressed with your rants.
If you think our presence here irritates you so much you can deactivate your account or better still you can drop your phone inside a pit-latrine. Do this and thank me later Mumu
mdntiri: That your loud matatu thing doesn't make sense. Its village vibes. Why add to all the stress, traffic, work stress etc?
Kenyans are the perfect description of villagers. Find time and watch their Television hosts, their YouTubers and politicitians. They are crass, pure villagers
rvp2018: Again from girl video - look like Ghanian are just chilled out boys - I doubt their entire night life can even rival kenyamatatu nightlife - few places can - matatu alone nightlife are more than Ghana can handle - leave alone the bars & clubs - Nairobi at night is crazy - it loud obxonious - and everywhere. And Nairobeans or kenya just head to bar straight from job. Mos t of other countries I have seen - Uganda, South africa , nigeria, ghana - people go home - dress up for the night - which are semi-formal. Kenyans simply empty from office to bar at 5pm. Nairobi from 6-7ish it become a mudhouse - matatus start competing with bars for clients - and by midnight - almost all the bars are emptying out - as people are now drunk - by 3pm it's over. Matatus pick you if you use them and drop you with same loud music, disco lights.
Thank goodness bars in kenya were eventually regulated - to open at 5pm and most close by law by 11pm- otherwise it uses to 24hours of madness - a few have such license. Saturday and sunday they are open at 2pm - otherwise again people use to drink silly 24hrs - some dont even show up home.
Hello, go for a mental check up okay You are losing it gradually.
What the lady said in the video and how you narrated are quiet opposite .
I repeat, Kenyans are so primitive to the extent that you guys think everything should be done the same way everywhere.
Whether Matatu, Danfo, trotro or buses the underlined word is transportation . Some countries prefer trams and monorail, all that is important is for people to reach their destinations on time.
Basically, all that you do on this page is you write stupid things then tag every country so people will argue with you. You have a mental problem
rvp2018: Very good. Dont allow the JustMad40 to railroad your entire country to become a fool paradise or world laughing stock You gotta say what is truthful. There is no patriotism when someone sink a generation like that.
Abeg focus on your Kenya, you need help more than any country on surface earth
rvp20182: We will only know for sure once sleepy Buhari wakes up.
Recently the Nigeria senate woke up and claimed some countries owe them 10B dollars in unpaid energy bills.
It appears - Banking and Energy sector - continue to be your albatross. Maybe you should consider ramping up utilities bills and metering everyone to reduce systemic energy problems.
Dr Bawumia said the accusation that direct COVID-19 expenditure, which amounted to GHC 12.0 billion--GHC8.1 billion in 2020 and GHC 3.9billion in 2021--was the reason for the crisis could not be true as two major items, the Banking Sector Clean up (GHC 25 billion) and the Energy Sector Excess Capacity payments (GHC 17 billion) had accounted for the increased debt stock.
rvp2018: What madness are you on. KPLC requires 50-70M dollars monthly to pay IPPs and loans they took in foreign currency. They need to figure out how to survive the dollar crunch And are proposing charging customers in EPZ, embassies and such dollars if they agree
As for Ghana - have you even paid Nigeria for Gas without walking sleeping Buhari ?
You own power companies dont even pay for their debt - it's Ghana gov that pays
vaxx: they are some social intervention the govt embarked on that really caused this mess . And I called it necessary debt .
The free education for instance , even if you are to blame them for anything , remember many student are schooling and eating freely .
I agree this is not what we bargain for ?
They refused all advise to start the FSHS gradually. Sake of some cheap propaganda they decided to do a full scale programme and we are where we are today. I'm not impressed with this FSHS at all.
Just40: Kuffour and all the rest raise a beast they can't control and he has done them dirty.. no wonder Ken is washing all of their dirty laundry in public. Did you listen to Bernard this morning?
I have stopped listening to morning shows cos I always get angry after listening to some stupid communicators
vaxx: The open speech in Ghana gave birth to that ........ Have you wonder why no negative remarks comes from rwanda , it is always rossy there ..... what do you think .
I prefer the Rwanda style
Paul Kigame doesn't allow free speech He is very autocratic and all but the guy is working, he is walking his talk Unlike our clueless arrogant President who will talk plenty and do nothing.
Even in our current situation he and his appointees are still living lavishly and they won't listen to any good counsel.
