Surely the only thing offside there is the shoe smiley You lost; the rest are details. And the ball is already moving..so one frame before this..guy is onside
well , we played gallantly, we even deserve victory but that is just how game works , with what those boys played today, I believe them but, It's very infuriating that such a controversial penalty wasn't even subjected to a VAR analysis. Such discrimination! , Again how could this be a goal if var was working.

Ghana lost. African teams need to stop this nonsense. This not about flair. This is about the mental strength to win. African teams lack this. It doesnt matter how you play - just win. If you lose. Move on. Stop blaming the referees. Learn from the loss.

After lossing- you think world class player like Ronaldo even ever think of Ghana smiley
During an African country's playing time, VAR doesn't work. Referee doesn't check VAR.

Say no to Racism at all costs. Clear offside. Robbed.

I value education but it's crazy to me
the pressure that the kids are been thrusted upon in the name of competition is why it is getting costlier. Until the competition Cap is removed, it will never stop getting costly.

So much so that even Goldman sash was about to open a branch here but for some officialdom messing things up....
people paying as much as 24 thousand dollars for university education In Ghana to me is very crazy. Hopefully govt is earning more tax from this international university as well.

higher times has always placed UI ahead of any Ghana University let's be guided when making bold statements in comparison.
Only recently did I start seeing GH University and it was like a major news to notify Unis here to wake up.
I am very guided , and when I said Ghana university are well ranked by known institution , I am not limiting it to higher times only, as I made mentioned of QS as well.even In higher times , Ghana institution has always been ranked , maybe a less below Ui but never as Qs ranked ibadan higher than any Ghanaian university. You can verify.

Sure because for some strange reason.. she's doing well with Spanish.

There's no way of escaping the language whether she likes it or not, she may have to learn considering how long she want to spend there
fluent in German alone is even a standard . As Africa is concerned, you can even make money from it by teaching it .

She can learn and speak it . But wait, many international university are setting up schools here. What dey happen. I have seen webster and lancaster campuses in Accra

One random ranking doesnt make your run of the mill university high ranking. Consistent ranking by many indexes doesnt include any Ghanian university in Africa top 10.

Maybe in West Africa - sometimes Nigeria's Ibadan features - otherwise the least as always about 5 from South Africa ( Capetown or Witwatersrand or Pretoria or Stellenboch or KwaZulu Natal all compete for top 1-5 ),Cairo University, University of Nairobi, Makerere University of Uganda and sometimes you can throw in Ibandan or more South Africa universities. Those are consistently top 10 africa univerisity accross many parameters.


Ghana and university. The only people interested in Ghana are former SLAVES in america continent coming to trace their roots.
most of the known ranking institution have consistently ranked Ghana university. It is a known phenomenon. Way back it has always been the best in west africa and one of the top seven in africa by any known reputable ranking institution like times higher or QS ranking.


I graduated with both chinese and india students and too many Lebanese.

That sounds like American systems.
Kenya systems.
In primary school - you pick 4 schools you want as high school - rank them 1st choice - till the 4th.
Computer assign it to you based on performance, region, affarmative actions etc. Everyone want the best high school but position are limited.
After high school - you also pick 4 universities and courses - from your 1st choice to your 4th choice - normally you should get the 4th.
Computer picks and assign again best on performance - if you pick Medicine - and didnt score like all As - you're wasting time - computer will assign you the final choice - maybe BA in some forest university.
The same for al course/vocational training/ name

This system was done in 1990s - for primary and later for university - by our school of computer science.

This has eliminated Corruption and Favoritism.

Kenya every kid has the same chance.

Those rich can go to private secondary - and pay.

At university level - they can go to either - and pay.

Now https://kuccps.net/ - is for all universities and vocational training - it's open once a year few months after high school exams are out - and only for those who graduated.

The courses are weighted based on the university - so you know before hand that going to University of Nairobi for medicine - you need As completely.
now Ghana has fully made the primary and secondary admission process computer based . Yours is to select your region and apply for schools in there. Computer randomly select you based on performance and available school. So you might not exactly get your choice school if your aggregate mark is lower compare to what the school choose. Popular school are likely to have higher point .

All can apply for student loans - as long as you qualify for them - and you'll repay at 4% interest after graduation.

What is missing in kenya is National Open university like Nigeria has - and this Ruto will fix as top priority. I think there is a Nairobi based African virtual university - but certainly nothing like South Africa UNISA or Nigeria Open University - that can admit thousands at comfort of their computers.
in Ghana student loan are interest free and it comes with no guarantor apart from your Ghana identity card . So no stress at all when applying for one any day. And for the open university kind of things , we have allowed private university to fixed it . We have laweh open university. Probably , public schools might be set up directly for it soon. But I think it should be open for private institution only. As it is now.

Really no hard rules at least in kenya. Most universities have their unique strength. If you want to be a teacher - or doctor - etc - you pick. All kenya students pick their university and vocational course...you pick top 4...course/university...online...and the computer system will finally award you. Those are one that qualify for gov funding. But you can walk to private or public university any day.

In kenya public university have private students - mean those who walk in - and want to finance their course 100 percent - and decide how fast they want to finish - like taking three semsters a year.

There is really no difference btw public and private in kenya anymore. Private have gov funded students. Public have private students. Gov you wait for joint admission - six months after graduating is when you can join university and have to apply through central placement board. Private is anytime anyday.
it depends on your choice and feild of study as well, because some university are funded purposely for that . There are teacher training university, business university , science orientated university and that of politics and law . Even of recent we have gotten university for mining ( umat) petroleum and medical only university . Despite all this , some university runs all the program . So it depends on your choice .


Here , university forms are purchase and you go online and filled , you submit and wait till the selection process happens , you can as well get more than 10 university forms and apply to all of them at random , it depends on how much you are willing to spend or the strength of your chances . So a student might get admitted into more than five university if he or she applied for them at once and you choose your choice or take different course if capable .

In Ghana. In kenya a student choose where to attend - and he get publicly funded. As long as you score qualify for university - you can select private or public - and you get the capitation per course.
public university attract best of brains hence the choice of many students and student pay very little as almost every utilities are subsides, therefore creating stiffed admission process . People only choose private university when all option to get into public university have elapsed and are very thirsty of higher education . ( Some private School like ashesi, valley view and central private uni ) are somehow different from this as they attract best student also. But nearly all the major private university college are set up to admit poor academically deprived student who are yarning for university education. And mind you, there is cut of point for university placement ,no school will admit you( even private ) if you have more than 40 percent aggregate. That is GTEC requirements .

African America always try to go to Ghana to re-connect - get dissappointed - and never comeback.

There are many Ghanians who come to Kenya universities. Most of them come to USIU - because it's US recognised university and hope to transfer to San Diego.

We know Ghanians and Nigerian cant hack without emigrating abroad.

As for black american coming to trace their roots - I dont think that is hardly something to be proud of. They have no where else to see such huge slaves dungeon.
that is your bullshit , many african america have settle up finally. They have even gotten a citizenship here, set up a business center and call here their home . The fact is , Ghana has a lot to offer. Be it security wise or social issues , it is covered and settled. And it isn't just about black american, it includes the white as well.

If you see a Ghanaian schooling in kenya ,it is because the school has something to do with a parent university In Europe or america . That is it. Schooling abroad ( europe and america is our thing ) we love it. we even set standard with it .I am sorry many turkana can't afford it .

She's looking for English taught, else she will have to spend an extra year in Germany just to learn the language or even 2 years because it's a hard language to learn, before her program.
learning the language is very important if she is willing to graduate with urkunde . That sets standard and make her more international. Though she might enrol into english thought program, I still advice she learn the language. She can't just escaped it . She will still do german language regarding any feild as course on its own. Though very little .

It isn't that hard , it is just a matter of time and seriousness. I learnt women are more prone to hear new language than men

Kenyan universities are not accepting Ghanaians, you wouldn't qualify. Go throw your money in America and fund their universities with crazy international fees. They accept anyone with money.
.No Ghanaian with his brain in check will choose kenya university over a Ghanaian one , it is rather the opposite . I have meet many kenya students here . Some are so poor academically , they only meet private university standard admission.

Another interesting fact, Ghana is the next country behind south africa that america student prefer in sub saharan africa. There are more America student here than any country bar SA In sub saharan africa. Ghana is an educational tourism country . We enjoy a lot of dollars annually on it. I will throw my cash to a not known accredited america uni to the best most popular kenya unis

Which Kenyan university offer robotic engineering course or fluid dynamic courses, plasma surface engineering , materials and fluid flow modelling?

Very few Kenyans make it to ivy league schools ... Those non ivy league schools are majorly better than any uni in Kenya and offer superb programs.

Being the best can look like this
even so many private university in Germany are better off than kenya unis . I will choose a
not known private germany university over university of nairobi . It is about standard.

Only good if they are going to Ivy league - not run of the mill universities - and also coming back with their world class education to fix their country. You should fix your internal universities....
And yes we have one of the best university in africa ( Top 4, the best in west africa and Fourth in africa just behind south africa and egypt) that is indeed a prestige for a population halve your country . When it comes university education , you are behind us ( kenya ) despite that fact , we still attend the ivy league university ( my president is a product of Oxford though not ivy but the best in the world .

Rice university is not an ivy league school either but it is a standard on its own, don't be carried away by ivy league ( it is a just name for sport standard)and so it's many university in Germany with great standard.

FIFA uncovered on NETFLIX

"The FIFA scandal documentary on Netflix is a must watch for every Nigerian vis-a-vis African.
There are huge lessons to take home for the black race regarding his penchance to put personal greed ahead of community good and development.

Qatar basically won the hosting right for the world cup by buying up majority of the members in the 22-man committee which voted in the decision to award the 2022 world cup hosting right to the gulf nation.

Michele Platini in return for his vote forced the Qataris to enter into an arms deal with France worth billions of dollars, plus buy their aircrafts, and a football club in France (Yeah, that's how they came about PSG).

The Brazilians traded their vote for a gas deal which saw the setting up of a fully functional mega gas plant in the Amazon nation.

The Africans among them asked for 1.5 MILLION DOLLARS wired straight to their personal accounts.

Like bro, you came to the table where nation-changing deals were being made and all you cared for was your personal account balance? Not the millions of lives that could be changed forever? You didn't ask for your country's share of those far reaching deals of epic national proportions worth in the regions of several hundred millions of dollars. Instead you went for a self serving interest thereby denying your people the luxury of a better life?

That Netflix docummentary summed up the mentality of the the African man in its entirety. If you are wondering why it's the richest yet poorest continent, look no further."
