The Ghanaian economy will tank without Nigeria. Ghana is in our shadow and you know it, Odartey.

since this is from You, everybody understand.

obaaderemi:
And yet America deported thousands of you last year,Mr. Deportee.

You still peddle lies. No thousand Ghanaian deported , just like how Germany threaten to deport 30 thousand Nigerians last year.none of this action were effected. As I type now nancy Pelosi ( USA speaker of the house is in Ghana) discussing how to strengthened bilateral relationship with the country.

Nigeria investigating soldiers who 'absconded with cash'
Soldiers are often used to transport money across the country.

Nigeria's military authorities say they are investigating reports that some soldiers absconded with $1.6m-worth of cash in the local currency.

It is not clear how the men who were on escort duties diverted the money, but a military source told the BBC that a huge sum is missing and that a senior officer has been placed under house arrest in the capital, Abuja.

An officer in the defence headquarters who briefed the press on Tuesday confirmed that an investigation was on going, adding that "the outcome will be made known to the public in due course".

Colonel Onyema Nwachukwu declined to give further details in an incident with many missing parts.

The money was reported to have been diverted by five junior soldiers, who were on escort duties.

One report says the money taken was intended for "military operational funds", while other accounts said the money belonged to a former senior officer in the army. The soldiers had reportedly escorted a truck carrying the cash from Sokoto to Kaduna in the north-west, where they seized it, discarded their army uniforms and absconded.

Nigeria's military is engaged in operations across the country, battling an insurgency, kidnapping, cattle thieves and bandits in different regions.

A substantial part of country's annual budget goes to the defence ministry, but soldiers at the forefront, especially those fighting militant group Boko Haram in the north-east, have often complained of a lack of equipment and non-payment of allowances.

Well the joke is when somebody compares Africa with India. Africa is a huge continent for god's sake.

One cannot even compare Africa to China or Russia or USA.

Africa is a continent with natural resources 300+ times more than the largest country in the world. Forget about India. It's not even in the picture. Therefore it's foolish to compare a continent with 54 or so countries to any single country.

U r saying both worlds r same , how ?
Is Egypt same as Ghana ? Yet both r African countries.
And both r world's apart.

Every country is this world is unique and any similarities r superficial and matter of perception. It's like saying 2 humans are identical becz they have 2 hands and 2 legs . But r 2 humans same ? . Same goes for any 2 countries.

And that's the beauty and the strength , so that a country can leverage it's strength and then share their best with others or learn from others if they want.

Absolutely there is nothing wrong comparing both. economist have done that for long so i will not be the first person. here population matter. africa in total is comparable to india. selectively , if India is to be compared based on her state with India. most of the state will perform poorly despite their population you may try to compare Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal with Ghana.

""When the vast central Indian Madhya Pradesh state, which has a population of 70 million, was compared with the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the war-racked African state of 62 million inhabitants, the two were found to have near-identical levels of poverty and underdevelopment"".


Americans even compare their country with Europe as a continent. when you factor in area size, total GDP and population wise. they are comparable . China can be compare to africa but not Russia, the population doesn't favour the statistics .

I said in their own world. Egypt is located in the northern part of Africa while Ghana is sitting in west africa both on the same planet with the same CONTINENT.


comparing india with Africa is possible. Americans even do that with Europe as a continent . there is a whole research about india vs africa. it is online if you care to read.

nemesis8u:
Interesting isn't it

Ghana and Tanzania

Some of the citizens of the above countries were shiiting on indian technology and yet.........

It shows you don't really understand the argument against India here. India is impressive on her own side. that is fine, no doubt about it but saying it is better than africa is a big joke. both world are not far apart. evidence are there.

yes we can leverage on each other advantage. especially in area of ICT, india is probably doing very well and well rated. India too is currently learning to borrow some Ghana policy and initiative.


""India is seeking to adopt Ghana President Nana Akufo-Addo’s flagship industrial programme, the One District One Factory (1-D-1-F) policy.

Trade and Industry Minister, Alan Kyeremanteng, made this known on Tuesday, May 7, 2019, while delivering an update report on the 1D1F initiative at the Ministry of Information.

He says he was informed last year during his visit to India that the Asian nation wanted to also implement a 1D1F programme.

According to him, “for once the big boys are also copying from us.”

He stated that Germany and the US have also expressed interest in being part of the 1D1F programme, with the US Eximbank signing a $300 million facility recently to support the initiative.

The 1D1F initiative widely advertised during the 2016 election campaign, is a major pillar of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government’s economic growth and diversification and jobs creation agenda""

Ghana navy did a good job

The Ghana Navy has rescued 8 crewmen on board Turkish vessel, Paskoy-1 after they were attacked and abandoned on sea by pirates in Nigerian territorial waters.

The vessel was en route La Cote D'Ivoire from Cameroon when the pirates kidnapped 10 crewmen of the total 18, including the captain of the vessel. The pirates were believed to undertaken have done so for ransom, for the release of the captives.

The rescued 8, have been brought to the Tema Port, where the Ambassador of Turkey has been contacted to arrange for their safe travel back to Turkey and other necessary arrangements.

The Turkish Ambassador to Ghana, Ozlem Ergun Uluren, who confirmed that the rescued 8 are in good health, expressed appreciation to the Ghana Navy and allied security authorities for bringing the troubled Turkish crewmen and vessel to safety in Ghanaian waters.

Commodore James Kontoh, Flag Officer in Charge of the Eastern Naval Command, bemoaned the threat the Gulf of Guinea is posing on travelers but affirmed the Ghana Navy's resolve to ensure Ghana's territorial waters remain safe.

“The Gulf of Guinea area has become very notorious, in terms piracy and kidnapping, but our resolve is to make sure our territorial waters are safe. We have been carrying out vigorous patrol, to make sure that they do not come here.”

I asked u a name, u have me a essay

Ok no problem I understand now , I apologise.

Good night madam

lady vaxx says you are welcome.

nemesis8u:
Why so much insecurity regarding your own country.

Anyways no problem I understand.

According to u ur Africa when it is against India.
So u will drag all 54 African countries along with u , weather they want it or not ?

Good luck with that in real life

Ur funny man , I like u

Your question was meaningless in the begining and I have to make it more meaningless since the basis of the question is meaningless.


A little search of vaxx history here will tell you she is not in anyway shy of identify with her country. yes vaxx will always be an africa first against any other cast system.

Jonraid:
Ranking are mostly not honourable! But if facts are to go by, that's just it.

The bottom line. is India better than africa ? The Answer is NO. some other area of development suggest otherwise. in actuality we are not more far from each other in development. but i am of the opinion they have a better position to be better than us due to their initial condition ( institutional strength and historical skills).

nemesis8u:
Vaxx is from which country ?

Knowing it would surely help to put things together in a comparative basis

what is the meaning of this question? i am Africa when it is against India. how does my nationality affect you?

Jonraid:
It was India against South Africa. This is where you fail in arguments vaxx

You are making it India against the world

I just said it not honourable to compare both of them in many area since advantage of the historical skills didnt favour south Africa. therefore it make more sense to compare countries that have same or similar industrial or institutional strength. imagine south Africa. shares border with Germany or usa. do you really think you can compare India with her? check out India border countries and see how they perform in development with India? There is just little diffrence with the exception of China. that is far more developed than india.

Jonraid:
Can't blame them much with a billion plus mouths to feed!

That is not an excuse. China case is different. they just did not get it right. as bigger as they are , little less than 0.6 percent of their population pay taxes. their economy fundamental are very weak.


just compare to other country below. It is horrible.

Jonraid:
I just said of the present facts no matter what history would suggest. The facts are as they are no matter how many considerations you'd bring, I get your point though but India floors SA in tech capability !

And the funniest thing India is not even a leading technological country......

Jonraid:
I just said of the present facts no matter what history would suggest. The facts are as they are no matter how many considerations you'd bring, I get your point though but India floors SA in tech capability !

Agreed . but not on poverty eradication nor education ..

Jonraid:
I said of South Africa and not Japan

It is not trully honourable to compare the two. how old is south Africa? What historical advantage does it have ? India had been an ancient super power for long, it just lost that glory some three hundered years ago. Japan will be the perfect example, she got it right despite not having historical advantage comparable to India.

Jonraid:
What of tech ?

India tech development was as a result of balance institutional strength. And it is still suck when when compare to Japan which does not have the same benefit. ..... south Korea it catching up fast now.

Jonraid:
SA is more developed than India? Are they planning a Mars landing?

Bro be realistic here. India and the rest of sub Saharan African have a very diffrent initial condition. ( institutional strength and historical skills) This badly did not favour SUBSAHRAN africa. It makes more sense to compare India with north Africa. they both have similar structure. India is below development when compared to Egypt , Algeria or Tunisia.

many africa country are doing well than india in literacy but may be lacking a bit in institutional strength due initial condition that benefit India. but notwithstanding, i can bet you it is not difficult issue for africa to meet . what we need are the right set of fundamentals and we will get it fine.

spendoon:
the guy watches too much BBC,ALJZEERA news to think Africa is that messd up

Whatever he does. India is not in anyway better.

Goel:
[s]I'm not a Kenyan idiot. Sooner you realize it, better for you.

Indeed, most stupid nation India is.
[/s]
By default, my country doesn't need any defending against your countries. My country alone can devastate your entire continent without getting much damage on its own end. If my country chooses to turn hostile openly to any of Nigeria, Ghana or Kenya or any other African country, it will get isolated shortly and future will be in danger.

[s]My nation's anti colonial moments were inspiration for anti colonialists of rest of world, immediately after freedom my country direct hostilities from USA (on Portugal) and Soviet Union (on Kashmir) and ended up turning them ally.

From nuclear to chemical, biological to conventional, fragmented to thermobaric, tactical to strategic, India went on developing every kind of technology and made a robust defense that made India invasion proof against any superpower or colonizer. It then started on pulling millions out of poverty every year while dealing with wars always on multiple fronts outside country and secessionist insurgencies inside country (finishing nearly all) and still facing while growing. From basic automotive to rocket science, India pursued nearly everything what a great power has at low income status early.

At a per capita GDP (nominal) of just $2,200 which itself is growing at very fast pace, India has much better HDI, other human development indicators and access to technology. While you guys still keep on running after other countries for aid, my country has transformed into a donor of aid. We don't have to compromise our national interests in return of nothing against foreign pressure.

Keep on your drama with your African fellows only.

Which analysis? What did he analyse at first place? He just googled Indian news and copied some faultline comments over Indian Central Budget FY2019-20 to keep his argument alive.

There was no "analysis" or conclusion involved anywhere.

What do you think? Nigerians trolling people here is actually pissing them off? No, they are even taking more pity on your ignorance. Especially for India, your trolling won't change Nigeria's status vis a vis India[/s].

You must be as stupid as it sound. Do you know how crazy it will sound if africa shift its entire focus on one another as it is about to begin now with the establishment of AFCTA) ? when importation and medical tourism from Africa stopped? Not when your economy is having diarrhoea.

Goel:
Who?

You are an idiot not to know. I am referring to you . goat or goel.

I don't either. Indians rarely talk about Africa in general. I'm the one exceptional who keeps on visiting other sides to know about their politics. Here, I got stumbled with a pathetic idiot.

verbose, verbose, You can actually make your word a bit more simpler and more comprehensible without much wording. Mr nincompop too much word doesn't make a point. if you cannot explain it in a few lines you can't explain it forever. It so amazing you identify as an India but stupid one. interesting to meet you online.

What are you waiting for? Just list up a couple of those patterns.
I'm confident enough that my pattern doesn't coincide with anyone.

i am engaging you nitwit, so subjecting yourself to such confidentiality with general observation is an evidence of what i just said earlier. you might be the same person. you don't need to identify yourself . walk away if you feel like I am actually not relating to you. but for the fact that you still feel like arguing this out shows are stupid you might be.

Stop wasting time on me then. I can't do anything about that. Quote that person only in response to me. Because I'm tired, found you extremly stupid and not going to reply to you anymore. By the way, this is me.
https://www.facebook.com/aman.goel.376043

Are you under pressure to choose to do what you are doing right now? if no, why are you forcing it as if I am engaging you to submiit your profile and question your fake ingenuity. you are free to ignore. well, that alone( I mean your Facebook profile still don't discredit how similar you sound with him. I sensed your pattern of argument matched. And that is how i found it. You reek of stupidity.

Just because your comprehension skills are too weak to understand what I wrote, it's not my fault in anyway.

Just at start of debate, I asked you to study Economic Complexity Index, Demographic Transition model, Great Divergence, East Asian renaissance and economic history of world.

You get this problem again. I am 100 percent sure , you don't even know what you are talking about here. a little engagement will make you edit my response. in which you will give a nod foolishly to what you think meet your myopic conclusion and write down a verbose on what you seems it should not be possible.
I started counting you unserious when you begin to censor my words by editing what you like and replying what you feel.

You didn't know anything about it nor you bothered to research.
And blabbered here whatever was in your mouth.
World doesn't work in simple way what you believe. Make strategic studies your hobby and you will be wondered everyday.

Asperger syndrome. I think you have a problem. even if you are programmed to know everything, you should be able to also identify different views. you stupidly agree i don't know anything and yet you continuously make the most erroneously contribution here . Have you confirm how India educational system is perharps the worst in south Asia? on reading that note again. I easily understand the average mind I am engaging.

Me being egoist? The education and knowledge I have collected over the years in my work field and my hobby is something you can only dream of. I'm not here to impress you or anyone else. However, for my "look alike" friends, you must agree that my pattern is different and I'm a different individual.

Asperger syndrome identify again. you don't really need to tell me much about your education background. nor your profession. judging from your reasoning and response. I can conclude where you are coming from. you are more of talkative person than a thinker. You actually don't make much of a diffrent from the same moniker i earlier identify you with.

I keep mouth shut on topics what I don't know anything about. I don't give up however when someone is spewing bullsh!t.


There is a thing called "Debate Pyramid". Do study about it. Along with my arrogance, all insults, personal attacks and abuses I threw at you, I kept myself restricted in confines of debate pyramid. I only added arguments, didn't change them unlike you. You were continuously jumping from one side of argument to other and even changing them purposely.

Just start reading our debate posts since start, you will get how big irritant you were. Go and study that pyramid.

How should this affect me fool. stop passing remarks on yourself , give it to others to do. ability to defend every contradicting point you got upstairs is not perfect demonstration of knowledge. it is a typical example of ignorance and symptoms of Asperger syndrom. you may need personal check up about it before it begin to manifest in reality that is if it has not started happening.


I am not debating you here fool. seems you lost what debate means. this is called argument. And that is same reasons i can tolerate you for this long.

Goel:
As far as being honest is concerned, you are stupid if you aren't dishonest to claim that there's any similarity in pattern of my arguments with any other member.

I don't free idiot , especially when i got the sense you are been back up with similar fool like you. .

ib'm strictly sticken to topic where I'm debating and not jumping on others.

i actually don't care. Anyway i found so many pattern of thinking style between you lot and this clearly give a clue it might be the same person. honestly i still doubt you are still not the same person. you just sound like him now.

I'm not a good or great read. I'm a normal person citing what I learnt in academics. vaxx is a top order idiot releasing one brainfart after other. He even purposely lies to defend himself but fails miserably.

That's why his posts against me are getting shorter & shorter gradually.

Leave him. He's an idiot. We have another guy called "Vijyes" on our forum. Damn irritating, always jumps on other side of argument or brings other topic while losing debate.
But will never apologize for his factually erroneous bluffs.

You are very daft with this reek utterances. You write so many verbose even without having a thought of understanding your own message. but when i simplify it back to you, you edit it and choose to answer what you seems fit. very unfortunate and disappointing of the so called academics you claim you learnt. you called it lies becuse you can't provide the alternative, you call it lies because you continue to failed to defend your own garbage. I shorten my reply with you because it is not an engagement of intellect but purposely for rubbbing egos. when i see you have point and simply make point like men and not like a goat. count me on board again. ( using many words when not necessary is never my thing)

Understand me goat, you have a poisonous reasoning, if you seems to have gotten a look alike friends who easily fall in love with your verbose. you are yet to impressed me.( many at times, your reasoning are faulty). you don't even argue anyway but simply interested in ego competition which I can help you to compound your problem.

Prof. Ngwabara should spare Ghanaians and Nigerians and stop associating his personal shame to these 2 countries which are close siblings. Whatever doctoring went into the tape he should not have said some of the things he said. He can uplift Nigeria without condemning Ghana where he was earning his daily bread. He should just be ashamed of himself.

bigtt76:
Is he denying that he never made those comments or where did the doctoring of video come in? Ayam not understanding this shaaaa

He said the video was doctored. . After he was heavily embarrassed in the media .

eagleeye2:
Why did he leave UnIlag?

He is on sabbatical in Ghana. it pays better to work in Ghana as an expatriate. UEW pass in dollars. you can see he is still interested in working in the school. he wanted to be reinstated

nototribalist:
I don't know why we can't just cut ties with that useless country call Ghana.

A country that passes a law that business trading should be only for Ghanaians. And even if you want to open a provision store you have to deposit $300,000 US dollars first. Imagine.

Meanwhile, A lot of Ghanaians are in Lagos doing business without anyone disturbing them.
I know two that owns a restaurant in my street.
The other one is a shoemaker.

Meanwhile, their president has been rolling on the floor begging that African free trade HQ should be built in Ghana. Which in my opinion they don't deserve it

You talk very ignorant and at the same time pass myopic judgement in an information you know nothing about. well, internet has given some of you the privileged to jump into any discussion even if you have no idea.

Ghana and Nigeria are closer to each other than you may think. Ghana is Nigeria largest trading partner in west Africa. Nigeria has its highest foreing investment in Ghana. you can imagine if what you just said comes into reality, what we happen to economy of the two nations?

Regarding buisness laws, every country has its own local law implemented to protect her local citizens from the huge economical weight of foreigner. As a foreigner, you can't be given the same equal right as the local . It does not even happen. in China more or less will that be acceptable in Ghana. Yet, Ghana a country a little bit more than lagos state in population recognise ecowas treaty and intentionally disagree to force the implemented law into action against ecowas member for the sake of pan Africanism yet you can't encourage them.


Already Ghana has been awarded the right to host AFCTA headquater either the president beg or crawl. he has gotten it for his country. a forward thinking leader i must say.

Lamasta:
They should just appoint him into one federal university here in Nigeria and case close simple.

he was a former deputy vice chancellor of UnIlag.

Tamasaba:
Who school help? Naso una go push youths go school. After school you go tell them say work no dey say make them go learn handwork. Nonsense. Illiteracy don take over. School dey favour people like u wey dem dey pay as visiting lecturer for different universities. U just dey talk to protect ur interest and customers(students). Without students them fire u. Nonsense

An educated jobless literate is better than jobless illiterate .ignorance is just too expensive.

RTSC:
What do you expect the Prof to say? Of course he would recant. I woeuld do the same under the circumstance.

Most of our top politicians graduated from Ghana?
lol. Abeg, I no fit laugh.

I don't think there is anybody that schooled in Ghana that went there as first choice.

Okay, maybe one or two percent that didn't want to face jamb at all.

The video i posted was enough to enlighten you even if you still want to argue. it is an exercise by Nigeria expatriate. Ghanaian universities has enjoy a well respected pedigree than Any Nigeria school. well the record is there to see.

most of the first set of Nigeria millitary were educated in Ghana . you can quickly Google to confirm, you don't need to be biased when the truth fall on your face. Nigeria expatriate are aware. your immediate former chief justice had both his secondary and university education in Ghana. jamb is not for smart student, it is for selection criteria that is not based on rigourous thinking. your jamb result alone can't get you admission in Ghana talkless of USA or UK but your own wassce result is enough anywhere. so don't be too carried away when you are subject to pass 200 marks as cut off point.


The prof didn't or forced to apologise , he can't handle it anymore when fact roll out.

RTSC:
Just like that Nigerian Professor in Ghana said.
Many Nigerians are fleeced for abysmal quality.

The FG need to review many of these certificates and suspend them starting from 2020 or so.

Maybe approve one or two universities from these countries.

LOL. You mean the professor that was begging after he was sacked and later claimed that over 90 percent of what he said are doctored ? most of your top politician and well to do people graduated from Ghana including the most honored former chief justice and obasonjo. . and about Ghana education, Nigerian expatriate knows the best.

Ghana President named best africa president


Ghana’s President Nana Akufo-Addo has been named as Africa’s best president by virtue of a poll conducted by a Canadian-based research organisation ''Leaders of tomorrow''.

Releasing the best and outstanding list of 2018 presidents in Africa, Ghana's President Akufo-Addo emerged top of the list.

This follows a similar research conducted by US-based think tank, World Vision Forum which placed President Akufo-Addo 1st on the list in Africa and 3rd in the world of best presidents with vision.

The Canadian research team, ‘‘Leaders of tomorrow’’, believes since Nana Akufo-Addo won the 2016 elections, he has been the man of the people with high approval rating because for his positive policies such as the free secondary education, Planting for Food and Jobs, I District 1 Dam, NAPCO, among others.



Also - his commitment to the development of Ghana, the near absence of corruption allegations under his regime and his government's respect of the rule of law are some of the reasons attributed to his win.

The second on the list is the president of Botswana Ian Khama Khama, the third is president of Mauritius Ameenah Gurib, president of Seychelles Danny Faure was placed 4th while the president of Gambia Adama Barrow placed 5th.

Meanwhile, Ghanaian ace investigative journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas, has been named in The Africa Report’s inaugural ranking of top Africans who control the levers of power across politics, business and the arts.

The list features billionaire barons to unpredictable peacemakers and soft-power superstars.
