rvp2018: Usual nonsense. Never seen any fruit or veggie from Ghana in any supermarket in Europe. It's Kenya, South Africa and Ivory Coast. Kenya is mostly vegies and avacados. South Africa avacados. Botswana you find beef. Ivory coast bananas and pineapples. Flowers definitely kenya. Nuts definitely kenya. Chocolate you find some from Ivory Coast or at least named after.
Ghana simply DO NOT exist - maybe in few suburbs of London.
All these in almost every supermarket in Europe
Ghana is the second largest exporter of pineapple in africa , the largest producer of coconut in africa . One of the leading producer of shea nut.
You might be having glaucoma just like I said earlier. Ghana product are everywhere.
rvp20182: Put link - and reduce arguments. You largest farm has 60,000 birds - that is small - Ruto the Deputy President - has 200,000 birds farm - and he aint even the biggest in Kenya.
I should put links on what ? That you still depends on turkey or Uganda still continue exporting day old chick to kenya? I really don't get your drift .
One interesting part about Ghana is, the owner of the largest poultry farm is just an individual not even a politician who solenly depend on state money .
rvp20182: No we are not. We import small deficit of fertilized egg. Kenya has it's own chicken brands. We have world class research in polutry. Gov produce it's own breed - and private sector.
As for food - kenya doesnt lack food - people living in arid areas just lack the money to buy food.
Kenya export a lot of food
stop your lies, kenya really depends on Turkey for her fertilized eggs, and Uk, neitherland , ireland still continue to export day old Chck to kenya despite your government ban. It is common phenomenon that uganda also export day old Chick to kenya . Fact are available online .
The fact is your country is currently facing food crisis. this is from United Nations not me . And it is not just about how poor your country is, it is also about how your Government is not willing to invest in technology to address the system. She will never stop blaming mother nature.
rvp20182: There is just too much demand - there is some imported fertilized egg - we export day old chick to the region. Like I told you in every sector - kenya has to take care of Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Somalia, and all these countries looking up for us.
Now explain to us why you import day-old chick via plane to Ghana Do you have a chicken plane or how does it work.
You are importing day old Chick just as Ghana( UK is one of your trading partner) . End of discussion. And when it comes to meat consumption, the demand here is higher than that of kenya. Government run a free meal programs here for primary School children and eggs is included as part of their dishes.
It is not coincidence that our neighbors are also as productive as us . We aren't surrounded by poor or hungry country such as yours . In west africa , food is not a problem not even meat .
Commercial poultry production in Ghana can be categorized into large-scale (over 50,000 birds), medium-scale (10,000 – 50,000 birds) and small-scale (less than 10,000 birds) enterprises. Domestic commercial farms are privately owned by individuals or a family. According to the Ghana Poultry Project (GPP) here are 29 large scale commercial poultry farms currently in Ghana and mostly found in the Ashanti region (13), Brong Ahafo (12) and Greater Accra region (4). These form about 20 per cent of the total poultry sector, producing mainly eggs. Most operate their own feed-mills
Even though there are local hatcheries that produce day-old chicks, the quality is generally low, so most poultry farmers prefer to buy imported day-old chicks, especially layer day-old chicks. In 2018, Ghana imported 511,960 broiler day-old chicks and 7,130,999 layer day-old chicks (source GPP). Currently, there is limited regulation on local hatcheries. The Government of Ghana is yet to pass into law a hatchery bill, which will ensure that quality day-old chicks are produced from domestic hatcheries. Currently, day-old chicks for commercial production are primarily produced by 15 local hatcheries and 8 importers according to the Ghana Poultry Project survey carried out in 2017. The importers mostly import the day-old chicks from the Netherlands and Belgium. Demand for day-old chicks exceeds supply by both local hatcheries and imports.
with all this this copy and paste. Kenya is also a dependant on turkey for her fertilized egg and likewise UK for its young chick. You are even currently facing a chick crisis. There is shortage.
It is only you who have time to copy and paste. Same thing is happening in Kenya.
rvp2018: Blood is cooked - and added to milk or other food. Drinking cow blood is not drinking human blood. So eating animal meat is cannibalism? Important thing - cow was not to be eaten - but milk and blood can be drawn from it - and eaten. There was no murderous gene that Boer has.
Kenyans are known for drinking raw blood. that is sacrilege here.
Eating cook animal meat is part of balance diet. Drinking raw blood is a known taboo.
Beef from cow is known stable food globally except for vegitarians.
rvp2018: Blood is richest source of iron. Milk richest source of calcium. You can only get iron if you eat maybe liver - which is also soaking with blood. This is why Kenyans have strong bones and can run miles.
Beans is doing the same job. Drinking raw blood is tantamount to cannibalism and it is consider both immoral and unhealthy. . We aren't animal here . We are human . We cook nearly our food except maybe vegitables and fruit.
vankelvin: Because everyone says you are a fool so you have decided to behave like one.
Kwame Nkrumah is everything Kenyans never and can never have.. No Kenyan can achieve what he achieved.... And no Kenyan will gain the popularity he gained around the World... Even so many years after his death he is still relevant than any Kenyan alive.
Kwame Nkrumah whether good or bad, he did what he had to do so shut up and go eat something...
rvp2018: Kenya is not Ghana backwater...where salaries are paid literally in pea or kola nuts
Kenyan nurses set to work in the UK will earn more than double their current pay if they are put on the pay scales of local workers in the European country.
A fresh university graduate, for instance, will earn at least Sh323,326 per month in the UK compared to Sh99,620 they would have earned in Kenya.
However, this will only happen if the Kenyan government successfully negotiates for its workers to earn the same as their UK counterparts.
And the high earnings in the UK may not give much relief to the workers as they will attract high expenditure in the country whose cost of living is higher than the East African nation
what is this copy and paste? .
Your nurses are not earning better than their Ghanaian counterpart despite the latter having more nurses than your cesspit .
rvp2018: Having a free media - doesnt mean having media with intellectual capacity to interrogate gov. It just free to air scandalous ashawo kind of nonsense.
If you media had the capacity - it would long have question why Ghana's cities look like cattle kraal compared to Kenya cities.
Having a free media means , everything going in ghana can be question. There are rooms to even question the use of too much pen in parliament . That is how free it is ..
Your country is good in shawdow image. Ghana is about statistics and data. We leave YouTube editing video for kids. It can't passed intellectual discourse
rvp2018: Usually, the registered nurses in Ghana earn between $3,600 and $4,800 yearly. That is very bad.
kenya nurses monthly salary is hovering around 70,thousand falling shillings, how is it better than a 3000 thousand cedis per month in Ghana. For the fact that we even have more nurses to patient ratio than kenya
Yeah, data can be cooked in totalitarian societies like Kenya where no one can question your gov't cook data because your media are even more lazy to even think of verifying it...
In Ghana, those are not possible.....the opposition and the 5th estate will expose them.
Ghana media is on top notch in africa. The best if I am not mistaking. How can a government cook a data here
Introduce this idiot to good evening Ghana and let him see what we called journalism . Investigating one .
rvp2018: No, you don't. Your too poor to pay them good salaries. In Kenya - proffesionals earn very high salaries - the incentive to emigrate is simply very LOW.
rvp2018: We have no problem hiring talent from anywhere in the world. That is difference btw Kenya and Botswana - and banana republics like Ghana and Nigeria.Recently our head of airports was Norwegian.
Until recently we advertised for certain position internationally.
You only hired foreigner for important position like chief justice when there is no adequate capable men from the locals . In terms of intellect and technicallity , kenya was wanting then. Your only hope was Ghana. Ghanaian has to do the number 3 most important job in your country.
This is Chief justice here ,the man who can be declared as president if the position of president and vice president, speaker become vacant .
You country really lack technical know how to have fully depend on a foreigner on such .
rvp2018: After Rawling killed 5 judges; he came running for dear life; Your country history is a nightmare. Kwame really messed you up. Then began 40yrs of military dictatorship, mass killings, mass immigration, famine, hyperinflation, mass deportation back to Ghana.
No wonder all of you sound like victim of PTSD.
The fact remain ,A Ghanaian once hold the number 3 citizens of your country.
They did owe Ghana something, and that is gratitude. A Ghanaian was once a former Chief justice of kenya . That is one of our brain that will deligently gave them.
rvp2018: Again HDI btw Ghana and Kenya is almost negligible. Dont sweat it. It has nothing to do with economics. It just an index of various indicators. Ghana has tried to mend it's way since 2002. But definitely Nkrumah gave your 40yrs of hell. And you still posthumously want us to worship him. Please keep him as your hero.
it has a lot to do with economics. A scale of 0.1 has so much to do talkless of 1 percent . Ghana is far doing way better than you . Evidence is there for everyone to see .Ghana is doing way better than kenyans .
We don't run a kleptocrazy system here where a single leader owns nearly all the major land except non viable one .it only happens in kenya up till date .
rvp2018: Kenya and Ghana HDI - are similar - anyone btw 0.550–0.699 (medium). South Africa and likes are have High HDI. The difference btw kenya and Ghana is almost neglible.
Yes of course kenya ought to be far ahead - if not for corruption - and few economic policies that were disaster.
But unlike Ghana - Kenya has done a far better job with what it has.
In economic scale , such a gap are not in anyway close, This is a gap that is more that 1 percent. Your little brain should tell you such is a big difference . Even if everything is owned by kenyans , one thing will still be missing and that is critical thinking.
In Ghana, policy are debated before it is piloted ,even if it will failed , the nation will benefit from it .
For the fact that your people are still complaining of hunger despite not facing any major crisis like Nigeria , then you are doom.
For example, no politicians will suggest a wheelbarrow as economic empowerment. It only happens in your zoo.
rvp2018: Again your manifestation of what ails Ghana. Very low education standards which imparted zero critical thinking skills.
How did Kofi Annan or Kwame Nkrumah help Ghana become a better country in their global stage. NADA. ZERO. NULL.
You country is a good example of why Africa is cursed or doomed to many informed people.
How do you explain a country with gold, diamond, bauxite, oil, arable land and name it - and yet still very poor - where every Ghanian dream is to emigrate.
The two above name you mentioned are greater than kenya herself.
if over 54 million people of kenyans can still be complaining of hunger in this 21century due to non viable excuse of non availability of arable land when technology has replaced the need of it, Then we can blame the devil no more . Rather we should consider your nation and his people as second fidel of human being, they are completely backward.
Even among the animals who has no foresight for improvement and technology, they still fend for themselves. I spit on kenya
rvp2018: Kenya and Ghana HDIs are similar - the difference percentage is 1 percent. Obviously going by the atrocious education standards in Ghana - this rocket science for you.
Kenya has done well by African standards.
Ghana had everything to succeeded. The same with Nigeria.
Everything except leadership.
typical fool, the new record says otherwise. Even if it is 1, by economic scale , that is large gap. Nothing close there .
Kenya has failed his people, the people of turkana can testify .
Kenya has everything to be successful but corruption and lack of critical thinking should be blame for her under-progress.
