Problem with naija is about religion.problem with religious matters is that they are hard to handle. ..Muslim yoruba will vote with Muslim fulanis. .fact..while christian Yorubas will vote with the south East guys..when you have a country where many feel not comfortable then ya have a problem..even if Baba does positive stuff half the country will not appreciate him..fact

Actually it will be better you called it conflict of interest. Because some Muslim and Christian are not even in support of others. Nigeria issue cut across many factors. And religion actually is just a cover up.

@vaxx...
About Google AI, I read somewhere one of the reason they pitched tent in africa was to train it to differentiate different dark shades of people..sometimes back it once confused a monkey with a black man..

To be honest vaxx if that's one of major reason then Kenya should have been the perfect ocation...Kenya got the largest shade of people you can classify..from the darkest (southern sudanese) to the the lightest of all..we even have the Somalis

i actually don't really know what interest Google of setting up In a nation not even close to 1/3rd of Nigeria . ( because Google will depend on data to flourish the lab and Ghana population or activity might not be enough for this) But i suspect Ghana vice president probably is the key behind it . he championed the idea since late 2017 when Google sent some technocrat down Ghana.


But this is what a reporter to CNN have to say.

mtisTheQubit:
Nice , you guys seem to have a positive touch on folks thus way ya likable..you are a bit humble an quiet unlike naijas who are loundy an annoying ..for us Kenyans we are quiet but very calculative just ask kazikazi ...you are like Tanzanian minus jelousy

The reality is. GHANA and Nigeria are more closer to each other than even togo or benin their respective neighbour. if Nigeria really have the kind of law and policy makers just like that of Ghana. by now, she will be competing with advance nation. 2.3 million barrel of oil a day isn't a joke.

mtisTheQubit:
Good of you..seems like Ghana got its act together. .I didn't know Kenya airways was part of ths event..Ghana seems to be attracting heavy weights in tech world..from Google AI to other tech investors.

Yes, and likewise powerful oil COMPANY like exxon mobil who recently open up a new office this week and ENI oil company was recently awarded a right to explore Ghana sea in search of more oil. Goverment policies and peaceful enviroment seems to be the key that is unlocking this development. over four Caribbean country are willing to abolish visa for Ghanaian citizens. Jamaica had from July 1 become a visa free to Ghanaian. A positive direction i think. And there is this 400 years home calling, All Africans that has been taken thru slavery are encourage to come home. The bigger event will take place next month. GHANA is making money and at the same championing pan African movement.

Ghana is currently lobby to have the headquater of the Afctfa. I hope it comes to fruition . it has the ability to change the economy of the state.

Claiming to be Nigerians for that matter something has to be done on our border issues

These people are integrated into the system already. They are Muslim as well which automatically make them a family member of their host community in the North. There is NOTHING to be done about it. unless religion will not intervene with politics.

mtisTheQubit:
Good news Kenyan lads who wan study in the land of the Queen .
Kenyan students will soon stay longer in the United Kingdom after the completion of their studies, the High Commissioner to Kenya Nic Hailey has said.

In the new move, Mr Hailey noted that the student visas would be extended to give learners more time to gather industry experience in the United Kingdom.

is there anything like national maths and science competition for high schools in Kenya?

spendoon:
I lived all my life in d north tooo and i have come to realised even if you are an igbo or Yoruba but Muslims they will value you more than any Hausa Christian those people don't have tribalism like the west and east but religion is their thing

There are many Malian and niger citizen's in Nigeria army.

samorobo:
I can't even differentiate btw them and the hausa's. Who cares if you are a nigerian or not so long as you have the melanin pigment you remain invincible. Do you know foreigners enjoys equal right and privileges like we the citizens. I wonder how these other africa countries are able to decipher a person that is not from their country merely by looking. We are ranked 4th as the african country with the highest immigrants but yet we dont complain and are not ready to deport every african. I just wish that the next govt we will have will take immigration seriously and practicing what these other african nations are doing maybe that time they would learn to respect authority and superiority. They take our kindness and hospitality for granted

There is difference between Niger Hausa and Nigeria hausa. The Hausa language is even difference though understandable just like Yoruba in Nigeria and Yoruba in benin rebublic. The northern actually know the diffrence and some of us who have spend considerable years in the North.

If you want to know how Nigeria take immigrants issue serious, you may need to visit seme border. The northern border is very porous and base on religious similarites with Niger which is very dear to the Hausa than nationalism, they care less about regularising them.

Pavore9:
This issue of reincarnation cannot be intellectualized in the face of some glaring realities.

unfortunately this is not an intellectulized submission.. particularly in the face science of doubt called scepticism

TayserMahri:
Yes it is very prized. Sort of thing you find in binding ceremonies

Then we are brothers. We share many similarites A Nigeria nor Ghanaian is close to you than any non African who acquired kenya citizenship

Tell me about your gods and their symbols.

TayserMahri:
The gourd is also made of some type of wood I think. They just polish it. Yes we do have palm wine its locally known as mnazi.

good. Is it idolized and celebrate?.because in west Africa .palm wine hold a lot of prestige base on our tradition. Either wedding or naming ceremony. You willl surely find it.

TayserMahri:
Interesting. How is the cow head treat done? I beg to disagree on West Africans being meatgans. At least not Nigerians. The rest of the west Africans except Nigeria seem to do as much meat as east Africa.

if Nigeria North is a country on her own. I bet she will perform very well on that list. And know that the meat according to definition is not limited to cow beef only.

TayserMahri:
@ Vaxx, am guessing the plate you explained from the Igbos is similar to this one from Kenya known as a gourd? Its traditional.

nah, the igbo one is made of wood. But generally all Nigerians and west Africa have something like that base on tradition. Yoruba and the Akan people of Ghana still prefer to use it to take palm wine till today.. Do you have Palm wine in Kenya?

TayserMahri:
Great. Cow leg?? The steak I hope. If I got it right then the cow intestines are cut into smaller pieces and fried with flavors? Intestines in Kenya are used to make a thing known as Mutura aka African Sausage. Not sure if the same exists in West Africa. There's a restaurant in the middle of the city I usually frequent to try different foods but never tried Chinese soup.

whaoo. West Africa are lovers of meat. Meat are garnished in different styles in W africa. There is cow intestine pepper soup on its own. There is even a special treat for cow head . It is a meal on its own. We have kilichi That is dry suya . It is plaster with groundnut paste. Very tasty. I recommend this one for you. It is common in Nigeria north and there is the version in Ghana north. Called chichinga. Very tasty too . I prefer taking Yoruba cow leg pepper soup. I personally love something pepperish .


Chinese organ soup is super cool. But you need to be watchful of your stomach for the first time. Don't consume much.

TayserMahri:
Is that fish curry or what? Iwobi must taste aweful The sahani (the plates) in the first pic look huuge! You folks eat too much

It is cow intestine/cow leg . And the plate is not that deep but look big .the meat is actually 1/3rd of that plate. . It is traditional plate accustomed to the igbo.


If you have taken Chinese organ soup. There is no much diffrence. Apart from, Chinese own is watery while that of Nigeria is thick.

wingmanII:
They have a nuclear weapon? Nuclear reactor is not a nuclear weapon, it is also used in generating electricity.
You need a large quantity of enriched uranium to build nuclear weapon.
Iran as at today do not have any nuclear weapon. That is the crux of the matter. They are trying to get one but USA and Israel will not let it happen, hence the tension between Iran and the USA.

Don't argue what you don't know. Iran is sitting down on something over 250 tonnes of uranium. And they have some of the best engineer in the world. So to have a nuclear weapon is not a big deal.

But if you doubt me and can read.



Just visit and read some document

here.https://www.iaea.org/newscenter/focus/iran/iaea-and-iran-iaea-reports

wingmanII:
Empty boast as usual. Israel will not allow you to develop a nuclear weapon

Already they have a nuclear weapon. What matter now is the amount of it in their disposal.

Jonraid:
Ghana has given me some money! I'm proper delighted!

Go take some kebab and cold beer.

Jonraid:
I've got my money on these two to loose.Watch me loose some cash today!

vaxx , I hope Ghana wins!

hope you make some money.

Problemkid1:
So Ghana finally lead in group F

it is unbelievable right?.

Cameroon is never a good bet with Nigeria. Maybe the history will change now.

Problemkid1:
Anyhow Sha

Ghana will be facing the best second in group E

Problemkid1:
It's Nigeria vs Ghana and not Cameroon

nah it is the opposite. Cameroon draw benin. That make them have five point and second on the table . GHANA will be leading base on number of scores.

Cameroon vs Nigeria. It is gonna be a game of revenge.


Black star still dissapoint me. They should have flog benin. Black star topping the table with goal score.

Problemkid1:
I don't really know what's wrong with that guy to be honest

This is miss world runner up 2013 . A ghanaian. I actually don't think any African has come close apart from Nigeria and south Africa who won miss world respectively .


Naa by name.

RTSC:
Ghana has students from US, and china? Even more than everybody else?
lol
What happened to the likes of egypt?
Keep blowing lie.
Is it not the same ghana we know.?

A country that has universities with endemic scarcity of professors.

There are international students in Nigeria . I have personally seen some.
The likes of covenant have them in droves.
Though i can't deny the fact that Nigerian education has dwindled, but the students going to the likes of ghana and togo are not looking for better education compared to Nigeria.
If they want better education, they would go to europe, america, canada or south africa, not ghana or togo.
The ones you see in ghana are those who don"t want the stress in gaining admission in Nigeria.
I don't think any country in west africa has universities comparable to the very few best universities in Nigeria.
The likes of covenant, UI , UNN ,Unilag.
The quality of the alumni in those universities alone dwarf anywhere else in west africa

You see your own input. Very pathetic . It shows you dont even have the information at hand just like the prof. Sub Saharan African countries does not include Egypt. And if Egypt is included. Then Ghana with a population of 30 million and just 13 public university will be third in the entire africa. The fact are available online to check.


Well, your prof already deny saying so. GHANA is not insufficient of prof. It is good to have educational exchange across africa . There are Ghanaian prof in Nigeria as well. And to lecture you. GHANAIAN educationist open up adult education both in university of ibadan and nigeria at large. Dr kweku attah that is the maternal uncle of the recently deceased former United Nations’ Secretary-General, Mr. Kofi (Atta) Annan – .

There are over 12000 Nigerians schooling in Ghana base on estimation. ( it is rightly more than that) investing heavily into Ghana economy directly and indirectly. That is a shame for Nigeria. Nigeria should be enjoying the position right. But rational minded individual/ parent knows acquiring a degree in Ghana is what is pedigree. Ghana is not the same as togo or benin. Theer

There are even benin and togo student in Ghana. How many Ghanaian are schooling in Nigeria. No Ghanaian will in his right sense pick a Nigeria uni unless he was born here or sponsored on scholarship. I am in the system so i know.


since at least 1960, until 1982, Nigerians had never outperformed their Ghanaian counterparts at both the “Ordinary” and “Advanced” levels at the General Certification Examinations (GCE). So, it is rather fascinating to hear Prof. Nwagbara stake his grandiose claims in favor of the supposedly nonesuch quality of Nigerian university or tertiary education, vis-à-vis the quality of the latter’s Ghanaian counterpart. Even The recent wassce tell. In education. I am sorry Nigeria is just coming.

rvp2018:
Honestly most Ghanians don't look that pretty going by Caucasian standards.. without prejudice of course.Lots of Yoruba like negroid look...you know Olesugun Obasanjo.

This does not portray the standard of your intelligence. Ghanaian women had once once hold miss world runner up. When you are talking about handsome in men why are you using obasonjo as a yardstick of Yoruba men. Check out and see for yourself.

effty:
You don't want to know bro.

lol. Be proud about it. Ok let me suggest. Oxford university

Mkenya2019:
Yeah, that chick is creepy, considering Wode is not good looking. Anyway, what I notice is just empty fallow land, boy we need to move there and cultivate all that empty land. In Kenya you find such empty land only in animal parks - and they are semi-arid. Fertile empty land without even bananas growing;

wode is not good looking.interesting. How do you measure good looking?

RTSC:
Nigerians are also in benin republic and togo.

When you have over 3 million jamb applicants every year, it is not surprising that they are checking out any easier alternative.

This is not an inteligent reply. It should rather be the opposite. The way It is in the 60s. It is orther west african citizens who should be flocking Nigeria institution not the opposite. Nigeria has over 350 universities with new ones springing up almost every day yet she can't attract foreign student in comparism to a country with less than 13 public uni and a handful of private colledge. Something is wrong somewhere. It is either Nigeria education aren't attractive enough we don't have international brand.


Well, Ghana is second to south africa in sub Saharan africa in the list of country with highest number of foreign student. It is not only Nigerians schooling in Ghana. Even American, British, Chinese are also in the country.

Ghana has gotten a long-established image and known reputation of her universities and colleges for excellence in the past which appears to be woefully lacking on the part of the flagship of Nigerian academies.

RTSC:
He is on sabattical. His main job is at the university of lagos.

He is only in ghana to make extra dough. Once he finishes his sabbatical, he is resuming back at unilag.

He said the only TWO professors in his university in ghana are Nigerians.
If that is correct, then Nigerian students in ghana are being scammed.

well. The prof isn't just a worker at unilag but a former pro vice chancellor. That is a big position by the way . Well, he is incorrect as he himself later agree and apologised. He only work with legon for just a year and that was far back 2012. The funny thing about the prof is he has been in Ghana for the past 7 years seeking for job opportunity in one institution and the other. The country he ignorantly claim as an inferior education to Nigeria. Just imagine.


The school he works with is UEW and it is one of the youngest university in Ghana. Well, the school already sacked him base on the condemning speech.


Check what he says below.



""Embattled visiting Nigerian Professor, Augustine Uzoma Nwagbara who has been sacked by the University of Education, Winneba(UEW) says the videotape that has led to his dismissal was doctored.

According to him, he did not utter some of the things attributed to him on the video which are considered to be disparaging to Ghana.

The University of Education on Wednesday, June 19, 2019, terminated the contract of the visiting Nigerian professor who was seen in a video inciting Nigerians against Ghana.

The decision to terminate the contract was taken after a Disciplinary Committee of the university conducted a probe into the content of the video.

Content of the video has been widely condemned by Ghanaians over fears it could further polarise the recent tensed relationship between locals and Nigerians residing in the country.

The Public Relations Officer of the University of Education, Ernest Azutiga, told Host Kwaku Owusu Adjei on Anopa Kasapa on Kasapa FM that the remorseful Prof. Nwagbara denied many of the content on the tape when he appeared before the Disciplinary Committee.


“On the issue of Nigerian universities being 80% better than Ghana’s he said he never said that. On the issue of revenue that the University of Ghana accrues as a result of Nigerian students schooling there, he said he never uttered such claims and that he has no statistics to back that, also the fact that UEW begged him to stay in Ghana he claims he never said that. He stressed that the video was doctored and doesn’t fully reflect what he said."

“Prof. Nwagbara when he appeared before the committee regretted the content of the video and apologized for the disgrace caused the reputable university even though he insisted the video was doctored. He was shocked the video came out because he didn’t see anyone recording the meeting,” Mr. Azutiga added.

Mr. Azutiga noted that his own investigations have established that Prof. Nwagbara is a fine lecturer, only that he got carried away by nationalism during his meeting with his compatriots hence the kind of utterances he made""

asuustrike1:
Why are many of them opting in for that school?

it is very cheap and has sizeable Nigerians back home doing the PRO on behalf of the college. Even Nigeria graduate automatically become an ambassador. It is reasonable you patronized a school that will make you feel at home.
