Playing at the highest level of National team football is every professional football player’s dream, a status which the African Cup of Nations and other Continental competitions have, just right behind the FIFA World Cup.

For every player born or eligible for an African team, playing at the AFCON is an achievement of the sort. Since the inaugural edition of the competition which saw three teams participate in it, the competition has grown in leaps and bounds with the number of participating teams rising.

In 2019, the competition for the first time sees a record number of 24 teams participating and as expected three new countries have registered their names on the attendance sheet for the biggest football fiesta in Africa.

Madagascar, Burundi and Mauritania join thirty-nine others who have featured at the AFCON having qualified for the first time in their histories, however, with the 24-team format more teams are expected to debut at the competition in subsequent edition but until then, here are the teams that have never played at the AFCON

What of Niger?

in all honesty, Dangote successful refinery will be a game changer


Nigeria and other sub-Saharan African countries would soon heave a sigh of relief from the importation of petroleum products, with the imminent completion of the 650,000 barrels-per-day (bpd) Dangote Refinery at Ibeju-Lekki area of Lagos.

Group Executive Director, Strategy, Capital Projects & Portfolio Development, Devakumar Edwin, made this statement on Wednesday, July 10, 2019, during the opening of the Ghana International Petroleum Conference (GhIPCON), which took place in Accra, Ghana.

This year’s conference held under the theme: ‘Regional Collaboration: A Catalyst for Transformation,” organised under the auspices of the Ministry of Energy and the National Petroleum Authority, was attended by stakeholders in the petroleum sector in the West Africa region.

Represented by the Technical Adviser to the President of Dangote Group on Refinery and Petrochemicals, Ign. Babajide Soyode, Mr. Edwin expressed the belief that the completion of Dangote Refinery and other modular refineries projects across West Africa, would lead to the integration of the downstream industries and stabilise the prices of petroleum products across the African sub-region.

He stressed the need for other investors in West Africa to emulate the investment drive of Aliko Dangote in the downstream petroleum sector and make the sub-region exporter of refined products.

He also urged investors in sub-Saharan Africa to take the bull by the horn by investing in the downstream sector.

According to him, “If Dangote can do it, any investor can do it. Dangote has not waited for government to regulate the downstream sector before starting the construction of the refinery.”

“We don’t need foreign investors to turn around our downstream sector. African investors should be able to emulate Dangote and revive the African downstream petroleum industry,” he added.

He assured that the refinery is designed to process multiple grades of domestic and foreign crude, which can be converted into high-quality gasoline, diesel, kerosene, and aviation fuels that meet Euro V emissions specifications.

The facility, according to him, would be integrated with a petrochemical unit that will produce polypropylene and fertilisers.

Mr. Edwin said Nigeria would soon become the largest exporter of fertiliser in Africa as the Dangote Fertiliser Company is set to commence full production.

According to him, pre-commissioning activities have started while construction work is still on-going at the Dangote Refinery site.

Speaking also at the event, the Vice President of the Republic of Ghana, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, assured stakeholders in the petroleum downstream industry that government would create an enabling environment for downstream business to thrive competitively, efficiently and with the highest of safety standards.

“Government, through the Ministry of Energy is in the process of ensuring institutional and regulatory re-alignment of the midstream gas subsector to bring clarity and a degree of certainty to players within that subsector,” he said.

The GhIPCON is designed to actively bring to the fore the operating industry’s perspective and guidance on issues of governmental and regulatory policy, as well as best practices for the advancement of the industry across West Africa.

The conference witnessed a convergence of about 250 regulators and downstream industry stakeholders from across the West African sub-region and beyond.

The event stimulated regional discussions that set the tone for a West African policy framework on the outlook of the petroleum downstream industry, regulate petroleum downstream infrastructure projects, efficiency and financing.

Participants discussed whether or not West Africa was ready for IMO 2020 and fuel specification trends, making West African refineries work, tackling illicit activities, fuel fraud and supply chain security in the West African sub-region, as well as consumerising West Africa’s natural gas.

Topics discussed at the event included: Unlocking West Africa’s Deregulatory Inertia, Making West Africa’s Refineries Work, Ghana’s Cylinder Reticulation Model, Harmonsing Sub-Regional Petroleum Products Specifications, and Challenges of Regional Distribution of Petroleum Products’.

why does people say Singapore has no natural resources despite having sea?

nemesis8u:


Jare don't mind me , just passing by

then pass well. but don't edit my response next time.

Wont it get flooded ?

i hope it has been built to withstand flooding. so far no news regarding that yet.

sofoline tunnel in kumasi. an underground walk.

Mkenya2019:
My emotional friend - the famous Ambode poodle - I normally do not respond to personal attacks and ad hominem - but let me make an exception. Let me make it very clear. I have nothing against Ghana.

My fidelity is with facts and truth. The truth is Kontranka do not manufacture cars. They import CKD from China, assemble them in Ghana and badge them made in Ghana. Ghana is a very progressive nation and in many indices is way better than Kenya. Kenya is playing catch up with Ghana...not with NIGERIA though.

Now that Ghana has won the secretariat for Afree Trade - I hope they are going to stump out such fraudster - because the THE RULES OF ORIGIN (% of local component) - is going to be critical. It was one of Nigeria biggest concerns - because Benin, Togo, Cameroon and even Ghanians - have attempted to abuse Ecowas - by importing Chinese goods and passing them as made in Benin - and send them duty free to Nigeria.

Kenya definitely will not allow itself to become dumping ground for Chinese or Indians goods that are re-badged in Africa to take advantage of free - duty free - entry to Africa. Expect to see very rigorous debate in Accra on what constitute the local content for something to pass as MADE IN AFRICA and allowed duty free entry to member state .

I have nothing against Indians or Whites or Chinese or Nigerians. And I am not GOEL.

My fidelity is with facts. I admit freely kenya has many issues...poverty is very prevalent - both rural and urban - our politics is dysfunctional and corruption endemic - but Kenya is progressively moving forward.

i am actually not a fan of kantaka motors simply because it is way too expensive for ordinary Ghanaian. And about her state of origin? It is still a debate going in Ghana. kantaka director himself refuse to give more insight about this than the usual workshop and factory he has provided for investigation.

Ghana first authentic car was A turtle and that was made from scrap part in kumasi.

Cameroon is not part of ecowas.

samorobo:
At least you know who you are dealing with ..

having resources is not an excuse. ..if not Singapore will be giving onne

Singapore has resources. And that is the sea that was converted to a port. It never deplit. though you may argue the same for kenya with her massive sea port. but Singapore as a city state has come along way. including the benefit of sharing border with another successful nation like Malaysia and average country of Indonesia. she even have a maritime border with south China.

samorobo:
I must have been delirious when I said that probably due to the fact that I was feeling sleepy. I meant fdi not gdp.

No matter how you try to twist it larger fdi will still remain large. That simple


I have visited monorail. Or but actually saw nothing to differentI are ir discredit the strong similarity both trains share. That's the reason why I requested that you tutor me on that directly.
Oh yes terminologies can be different but the difference in function is what I want you to tell me.


You video is the same exact video I posted ..so what's your point exactly

if you may know, A country that pumps 2.3 million barrels of oil in a day automatically should have more investment going on in her field. particularly Ghana and Nigeria share similar model of economy. The two country heavily rely on natural resources. And Ghana overtaking Nigeria in FDI despite it harbour fraction of what Nigeria have in bulk ( oil) tends to be a news. It hasn't happen before and that was the first time. but as investor dollar per capital. it is worth while to let you know Ghana has been slight ahead. Nigeria overtaking Ghana wouldn't surprise anyone because it is a position Ghana can only hold temporarily unless Ghana was lucky enough to invest heavily on her natural resources and become a full industrialized nation. a feet not impossible.

mono rail as it is name suggest can only run on a single track with less speed and capacity. if you study the video I posted , you will realised it is running two rail system and has the same capacity of land rail .

samorobo:
It is as if you don't know the level of two -faced individuals you are dealing with. Saying that kenyans like other african countries is a big joke. The same kenyan that value the white men over their fellow africans .this same thing was complained about by that ghanians vlogger ( you can watch it in youtube ) that visited kenya, who claimed to have been maltreated on multiple occasion but watched as they practically idolize the white over him. It simple once you are an africa nation with any form or resources they hate you and it stirs up jealousy in them because they never had and will never have. Before you ghanians came here they have constantly soiled the name of ghana ( I have screenshot if you want) .the only reason they are siding with you is because you will aid them in coming against us. This same kenyans that are here are the same set that went to attack south african on twitter and Facebook but they will come here to pretend so they can seek an ally. Or weren't they the ones that waited on till the south african left this particular thread before they started bring news of their shrink economy and mocking them openly in their absence. I feel sorry that you don't know the two-faced demon you are dealing with..most espespecially that Indian kenya called RVP that had to switch to his goel account to defend his second stupid nation India before vaxx. The reason he wrote that is because he is pissed with vaxx on is analysis on india's economy . Omg is is not this same rvp that told vaxx to his face that ghana is not used to world class infastructure. ..
The earlier you know this devil's the better for you. They are all involved. Fight for yourself and your country and don't conive with them else they would bite you when you least expect it just like they did with the south africans..

I am honest about it. kenya is not near Ghana development using all workable indices available. but i acknowledged kenya progress with little to low natural resources. Nairobi to be honest in my veiw as a secondary observer appear modern and developed base on africa standard. I don't like comparing where I don't have primary knowledge. maybe one day I will make a visit, it is even a free visa. that make it more interesting.

samorobo:
@bolded I don't need an engineerimg candidate as you said ;Dall I need is you. Remember I always love vaxx's teaching and I grown fond of it.

You would just say you don't know what to say that is why you brought in that invincible engineers here.so now you have shifted to it takes longer time to construct. Well that your own cup of tea my aim has been achieved which is to show you the strong undeniable similarty between both trains.

As for fdi. @bolded what we're you expecting. Did you really think your country will publish that just the same way they where quick to carry the new through various media about how ghana overtook us in gdp..bad news they say spread faster but good news will be hoarded.
Let me give you an assignment .. show me were ghana announced that we overtook them in fdi since the 1957 which was the time it's got its independence to date. That excuse of your doesn't hold water per perhaps you should have dugged deeper for a better one

You actually lacks teminology regarding train rapid system. And it is better you humble and learn it that will help you.


GHANA didn't overtook Nigeria in GDP. no where does it mention, and that is ignorance statement . Ghana does overtake Nigeria in foreing direct investment and it is not publication made by Ghanaian media only , but important organization like Bloomberg news , global impact investment networks and reputable organization as well. well, Ghana had for the past decade attract more investors dollars per capital than nigeria. ghana with an economy less than 10% the size of Nigeria . Nearly average of billions of dollars that was invested to west attracts for the past decade, almost a quarter of this capital was invested in Ghana.Google will have enlight you.. . This is even more impressive when you consider that Ghana makes up only 5% of the west Africa total GDP..

report are given at the end of the year . this is just 6 months . It make no sense to publicize anything now. Ghana is not comparing herself with Nigeria, she is just developing at her own space.

And to educate you better. below is what is known as sky train. not cable car not mono rail. Sky train is meant to handle massive population equal to land train.

samorobo:
I am not surprised at your timidity as you always been made to believe that the horror of a road you have in your cbd and country at large is the best. How on earth will I expect someone who hasn't entered a brt before to understand how train works simply because he has had access to the failed overcost chinese sgr. I purposely didn't post this video below intially because I wanted to trap vaxx. It was a trap to access his level of exposure and he scaled through it (maybe it's because I had already given him a clue intially ) only for that trap to catch the least person on my mind. Let me educate you a bit skytrain comes in various forms and can be built to either run under its steel rail or on top of it which is the same way port harcourt monorail runs.

Below is a video of a skytrain in vancouver.
Watch and cure your self off the timidity incurred on you by your past and present govt


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRwgomiVsFg

Have You visit monorail.org ? . skytrain doesn't comes in various forms . every technology has its own teminology. no single skytrain in Nigeria. simple

rvp2018:
Of course not.Goel if I recall is an Indian electrical engineer who once worked in Nigeria.He is a good read.I wish you were not combative and antagonistic maybe you'd learn something.Are you based in Germany?

Whatever the case might be. Anyway, his idea didn't sound impressive and that is why we are still it. I am already pissed off.

theenchanter:


Mr Goel, pls forgive Mr Vaxx. he know not what he's doing.... he's already confusing u as someone else after that round of tutorial.

Mr Vaxx, I've told u several times that discussion is better than argument, let that slip cos I'm sure u're already planning a rebuttal.

I'm even sure u'll still castigate me on this.

most you mentioned me. Anyway i will let it pass. tutorial very funny you.

Total bullshit as usual.

Goel:
You need to have money to "invest" in these sectors. Curbing population by one child policy has actually slowed down its long term growth.


China invested in required skills according to structural changes it adopted and same was followed by India in 80s.

That's obvious, they have all these sectors in place. That's why they use immigrants to grow their countries.

This is where the advantage of having initial large number of population comes into play. china Start producing things, at a profit, both for domestic use and what others want. china stop producing things, at a loss, that she and other countries do not want. And the money starts to come in, she save and invest it to the critical sector. .

However, countries with high educational level, infrastructure, transport and public sector are rich countries. A poor country can't afford things like them. It keeps on investing in sectors according to its ongoing economic growth.

India can become a rich country quicker than a smaller country. Tax incentive only can boost her growth. The government offer low taxes, it can even raised t revenues through a property tax on the expensive, multi-million dollar houses of the ultra-rich of India . In return the rich spend - boosting the local economy' and turning India quickly and faster to a rich country than Any smaller country.

India is a lower middle income economy with indicators same as that of any lower middle income economy. They are improving at a speed in synergy with India's growing income level to transit into an upper middle income one.

This is not an excuse, A good environment and a world class secondary school system populated by foreign teachers can help attract the best talent from around the world. This is what UAE is doing and Singapore.

india can easily become a large manufacturer and easily own financial centre like new york or Shanghai.

Once pensioners exceed taxpayers.

well in India the number of income tax payer are very less.

Bullsh!t was you wrote Chinese GDP exceeds US & Europe combined.

bullshit as usual, Chinese GDP had once be the highest in the world. just use Google.

What kind of logic is this? Just because China & India were largest economies of past, they will become so again? Why not other similar ancient civilizations like Mexico or Egypt? Why not Britain in future because it was one in previous century?

You like guffing. Britain is not historically advantage like China and India. therefore there is no similarities here. even the age difference is a factor apart from their economy power.

China & India are advantaged because of large populations. And when you manage to get hold of a way grow, it's way to go.

USA isn't very great among developed country. But it's largest ever developed country with population exceeding 300 millions. Even Soviet Union was just an upper middle income country but was world's third most populated country after China & India.



Modern China was much poorer than Africa in almost entire previous century until 1980s. At some instances, its GDP per capita was even a fraction of Africa's.

Africa was far more advantaged than both China & India after WW2 with GDP per capita much higher than Asia itself (that even at a time when Japan's GDP was more than rest of Asia combined).

I'm talking of contemporary Africa and actually on average.
In case of growth outlook however, none of them is advantaged except Egypt.[/

Africa is africa. nothing like contemporary Africa here. is there anything like contemporary Asia? What a stupid veiw?

show me evidence China was once poorer than entire africa? And let me highlight many instances African nations has been rated better than india.


and to stop at this silly argument, Tunisia, Algeria and Egypt are all by far at miles than india

rvp2018:
How do you propose Inga dam will help Africa without free trade...free trade include trading in energy, opening and sharing infrastructure.Youre just a typical uneducated Bongolala.If other Africa countries copied Kenya and traded 50% within Africa we could get somewhere.

Are you the same moniker using Goel. be honest in your reply. There is so much similarity in your writting.

samorobo:
Why announced it to raise the hope of the citizen's when you don't have a dime to pay for it.

As for skytrain I must say you don't know the literal mean of the word "SUSPENSION " cause if you do you would know that monorails are always suspended in the sky and are meant to run through the inner city like those ones in port harcourt and calabar. Or are you trying to say port harcourt &calabar monorails move on the ground.


As for your private sector I must still say that if your govt did what was right there is no way the private sector responsible for that job won't see it to reality and not just in the realms of dream. And for the record our country is more investor friendly than yours..in just five month we have gathered $2.87bn as foreign direct investment which is $1.3m less than what you collected in 12 month last year

There is cable car, there is mono rail which takes less time to construct . what you have in calabar is cable car and mono rail in port Harcourt. sky train is essentially diffrence. you may need a whole lot education on this technology. I think any engineering candidate may help you out. you are having challenges with terminology.

it is ignorant to referred light rail system as skytrain. they actually are elevated light rail systems. They run on conventional steel dual rails on a massive wide beam that takes longer years to achieved.


nothing shows Nigeria beat Ghana in foreing direct investments. no public info on that in Ghana. what is available is last year evidence. And by fact Ghana was the fourth largest receiver of foreing direct investment in africa and first in west africa. The. hope city is a private initiative not goverment investment. unless you don't know the diffrence?


2019 is massive in Ghana, it is labelled as year of return.



it is not about the money to financed the sky train. The feasibility study of the project is more important.

samorobo:
Where is vaxx ..if this monorail in port harcourt is not suspended then pls what is suspension


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8dDeSZ2kaU

The video below is shona monorail moving this way a sky train moves just like I explained earlier



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXtAf1550Hg

This same train at dusseldorf Germany moves the same way a monorail moves


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAYyphyOKvo


So vaxx what your point exactly

visit monorail.org to know the diffrence.

samorobo:
.


@bolded I hope you are not trying to deride the importance of the private sector in a country's development. If it is not your govt headache why then did they announced the project side by side with the private sector...surely you are about to question the importance of that appaudable project that would have had a positive impact on not just ghana but the entire continent at large ..what is good is good, don't shift it away because it never came to reality because I am sure you would have done the opposite if it came to fruition.
Private sector us the backbone of every govt and a country development.

Now let's move to skytrain...Yes skytrain transit on some heavy metal and steel suppeneded in the air. Skytrain can be of two kind , there is one that whose top attaches itself to the beneath part of the steel making it to stand vertically and move just like a cable car suppeded on a cable ..the other one is the type that stands/sit on the suppeded steel rail just like a monorail (same phenomenon applies to the monorail in port harcourt ). Do you know that this sky train barely picks up to 40 passengers at once and when compared to most monorail it's total amount of passengers lift at a goal is the same.
And for the records you just told a lie. Skytrain project was announced in 2014 which makes it 5 years so far since the project was abandoned. Check my pic below

it was announced is diffrent from it was signed. It is two different grammer altogether. Anyway buy into any straw you want to used. The agreement was made on paper in 2018 ( fact) and feasibility study suspended to 2019.

Nigeria does not have sky train ( simple) sky train is exactly similar to land train. The only difference is, it is suspended in the sky . it is the same train moving on the land nothing more.


Nowhere in the entire world is private sector financed by Goverment pulse. goverment can only provide enabling buisness enviroment. tax incentives,free access to land . made banks to lends to the local market. etc.

Ghana has the best buisness enabling enviroment in the entire west africa. so goverment already solve her own headache. It is left with the private sector to deal with her headache. And goverment initiative has been bearing fruits.

Graduateacher:
Fake news everywhere!!

it isn't fake.

samorobo:
@bolded you are wrong.

Once again leave philosophy behind and face reality ..this is not a college project for you to pass but the reality.
Close proximities should be taken into consideration peroid

The obvious fact is, there is no sea port in ondo state and neither has the deal to start one been approved.

nothing philosophical about my input here. it is just an available fact.

close proximity is not a factor perse in this discussion . Tin can and lagos port complex share the same location.


badagry port is cancelled not terminated. new plans wlll be developed according to the New director of NPA

samorobo:
It's not an excuse vaxx.if your govt truly wants to harness it private sector they will.

As for sky train it been more than three years. Do the math it was announced in 2014 and we are in 2019 that simple arithmetic should tell you it's about 5 years now. The south africa that wants to build a skytrain doesn't even have one except the one for tourist at sun city which is similar to their ravos rails and the monorail at calabar for tourist

goverment don't reimbursed private sector, goverment only facilitate a smooth ground for private sector to thrive . inability of hope city founder not continue her project is not a goverment main headache .

regarding the sky train you lied, the agreement was initially signed in 2018 and the first feasibility study was carry out in the begining of this year's. The company building the sky train is in South Africa does not mean it is south Africa Goverment company. It doesn't matter if south Africa have it or not. Ghana is only executing business with the company.


nah, sky train is diffrent from whatever is found in Nigeria now. sky train is simply lifting train up the sky so that it can pass thru inner city.

samorobo:
Proximity is not an excuse you say. What if lagos is under serious crisis today ehh. What then becomes the fate if both port.
What if all if lagos port is attacked by pirates what then becomes the fate of the country’s business since it will reply mostly on lagos due to the presence of two massive port.
There is nothing wrong in relocating the project elsewhere. Having another massive port in lagos will only increase lagos population since mire jobs wou k d be provided and that will have a serious effect on its infastructures. It's best to take it to other stares so development can spread. A port in ondo can really change the state looks in terms of urbanity

Before i address your input. let me let you know again there is currently no port in ondo state, and the latest report about any port development is still a consideration.

investment are simply not set out for political issues, plans are taking, the market size, environmental impact/ cost. purpose of the port. An all major purpose port will be viable in a supported enviroment. why build port where economy demand is sluggish or can even incurred another cost. mind you badagry port is cancelled. It does not mean, it is terminated. It is till more viable for Nigeria to have an additional port in lagos than any where in Nigeria. if you read my screenshot very well, you will realised the NPA director said they are working on a new plan for the same badagry port. what was cancelled was the initial master plan which should be redeveloped as it is poorly developed.

pirates don't attack sea port, they only attack cruise ship. don't know where you get that info from.


what makes sense is moving specialised port across different region that will need them the most. for example, most of the crude oil containers should be move to the south south,There should be large number of smaller ports essentially catering for local traffic and the one specialising in particular sectors such as fishing or leisure boating. All that can't be in lagos. it will reduce lagos traffic.

The All purpose lagos ports industry handles 65% of Nigeria import and export by volume so lagos still need more base on volume of demand.. .. Tin can port and lagos port complex share the same location.

samorobo:
@bolded what deal?

What about the hope city and sky train

Rlg communication is a Ghanaian indigenous company and it was the success behind opon IFA ( phone tablets) by former governor of osun state .

NOBODY built sky train within three years , Ghana goverment and south africa had already embark on the deal. next phase is the project execution. hope city is wrongly planned and for your info. it is a private proposal not goverment initiatives.

samorobo:
Okay but I was more interested in that chinese industrial city has their negotiations hit any positive conclusion. I figured you must have been in a hurry and probably forgot to update me on that

it is a proposal as it currently stands, Chinese contractor are not the only stakeholders , The community, the chiefs and the owners of the land must be carry long..... why must I update you and for what purpose will that achieve? I broadcast whatever i feel like and not purposely for you. if you need to be updated. used the search engine.

Hmmm and ghana is known for executing it's project right on time.well this link says otherwise


https://mobile.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/School-projects-worth-GHC21m-abandoned-754824

And a perfect case study would be the HOPE CITY project that would have attracted massive investment from all corners of the earth into the country ghana. That project would have made ghana sit and drive africa technology for just a sum of $1.2bn and 3 years completion date. Another example would also be that sky train project that was announced since 2014 but 5 years down the line you have absolutely nothing to show for it except another postponeded or should I say pipeline promise .


Another example would have also been accra marine drive which was announced in the he 1900s to change the country’s tourism atmosphere but over forty years down the line all you have has been one postponement or the other. I thought your president said December but shifted it to June and now we are in july with nothing to show for except a wet pipe dream. Remember you said anyone that doesn't consider tourism serious and profitable is a fool

Your mistake here is juxtaposing a private initiative for goverment duty

hope city is a dream in the pipe line. Anyway the Ghanaian responsible for that deal got a juicy contract in Nigeria from osun state goverment.

marine drive will never be excuted by the goverment unless private body venture into it. which i hope it will come into fruition. Ghanaian will not allow goverment to waste money on cosmetic venture, just of late. A parliament house worth about 200 million dollars was abolished.

Thank you for this link as well , trust me it is highly helpful.
As for vaxx I have come to understand that is argument is always based on philosophy as he is used to question what is actually In existence. It's is nature

Everybody is free to agree in what he think it is acceptable but vaxx will never accept lies. lekki deap sea still remain the only obvious reality in Nigeria.

proximity is not an excuse in view of environmental issues or commercial and financial viability.

u're right...

You are free with your image if that pleases you. It doesn't change the reality. shekenah.

samorobo:
So in conclusion you are saying that they are all in their pipeline stage, if yes then I must say you are greatly misinformed. I don't know that we have to throw some serious celebratory party in ghana so you can been informed on its progress

Arguing with you on something that ia actually in progress is pointless and dosent change reality .


Speaking of pipeline project why not update on your mps tema port project that is suppose to commence two weeks prior to the time you brought that news here...oooohhh and of course that wonderful project I love so much , I mean that chinese $20bn industrial city that will be a game changer. C remember they were negotiating then and must have concluded by now..you must have forgotten to update us so I thought it wise to remind yoy

i Actually miss your argument anyway, comparing to tema harbour is not what i am doing here. but you are free to-do what you think might justify your lies.


Tema harbour phase 1 is completed as i stated and she has received her first vessel on June 2. And about the Chinese project, visibility study must be carry out first. And the local chiefs of the land must be in agreement of the project as it is required under Ghana law.


show me evidence not lies.

nobody said warri seaport is executed, stop confusing ur self.

I said govt has approved fund for warri seaport, and it'll be connected to rail line linking abuja. Stop putting words in my mouth.

Akwa ibom deep seaport is under construction as I'm typing and below is their official website.
http://idsp.ak.gov.ng/

No single improvement from that sight since two years ago. having a workable website isn't a justification of what is going on there. give us picture, fact and data we can follow. It is like me showing you keta seaport info and still claim they are working right now.

warri port has been dormant for years, gov't just approved the deal to expand it in addition with the rail line project. it is yet to be executed. And judging from available data, Nigerians are known for abandoned project, it might not be executed as plan. badagry sea port is a case study.
