Of course, Aflao road is better than 6 years.

If you look at the history of Nigeria, civilians only ruled for 10 years out of 40 years of military regime, before we settled for democracy in 1999.

Believe me when the civilian ruled from 1960 - 1966, we were the envy of the world. I don't want to go into full details.

Though the military regime executed big projects but it was left to decay. Like I said, it was left to decay under the same military regime. As you have rightly said that maintenance culture is the major setbacks but it is no longer the case with some states government but the federal government is still very much guilty of this.

Most of the highrise buildings were done during the civilian rule.

Is Tema the first master planned city in West Africa? Can you give the date of creation?

The last time a Ghanaian friend visited Abuja, he realized he was fed with lies about Nigerian cities. In short, he was blown away.

I can only choose Accra ahead of Abuja if business is considered but in terms of infrastructures, please don't go there. Abuja has gone pass what you saw or think.

What are the factors that made Ghana the aviation hub?
Last year, I saw construction going on at the airport.

Are they building new airport?

I was impressed with the Navy clinic beside the airport.

But if you think Accra will overtake Lagos as the regional and economic hub then you must have great faith.

lol.save your depiction's of Lagos or abuja as an Eldorado as I know Nigeria in and out, so easy with the exaggerations. there is really nothing trendy and vibrant about these state's. same old things there.. not friendly and safe, hard to conduct legit biz , it has always been like that. the economic downturn turned it to something else. even as s foreigner I felt the pain as one of my biz went down. so don't try to exaggerate . I know these cities very well.

so does everyone have light, money, job in Nigeria?

Light is a big problem in Nigeria, which is shameful, but you should know that Ghana is not even bigger than Rivers state, so it is easier to generate constant power(which is not even constant) to all parts.
Nigeria can even afford to supply your country Ghana and the likes of Benin republic and still we do not have enough( which in part is due to corruption and lack of ideas). I hear that even lndia as a big country faces thesame problem. This is why the U.S is a giant indeed, they are not just big with the largest GDP, but they have solved these problems, because they are not clueless or wicked TO THIER OWN like the Nigerian Government. But then again, U.S.A is 400 years old and has had her own struggles. I do not expect you to understand though, you are a patriotic Ghanian of course.

DonnieTheGreat:


Typical Afonja Boy, ====> Am Yoruba too

Baba you managed to type a lot of things and still evaded all the questions i asked.

You said only 6 out of the 66 districts in Abuja are developed. Kindly mention at least 3 out of the 60 underdeveloped districts in Abuja.

Google is not my friend. Help me out .


Also,
If you knew anything about how demographics(age) of a population is calculated you would know that its not done by going from house to house asking for people's age...so the idea that Nigerians lie about their age, therefore the demographics stats are false does not make sense at all. Infact its laughable......Honestly, you think demographics are calculated by govt officials going from house to house asking people's ages....lol .

On a more serious note demographics are calculated from fertility rates, mortality rates and a couple of other metrics. So the data i presented is correct with a very little margin of error which are already catered for in the stats.

Also,
The problem with Nigerians is that although we are highly intelligent people we usually judge economic development based on access to basic amenities such as Electricity, access to pipe borne water e.t.c.....Hence in the eye of the average Nigerian Benin republic and ghana are more developed than Nigeria because they have constant electricity. .

Again,
This method of thinking is very laughable. Because Countries around the world are measured based on economic performance (GDP) not availability of basic Amenities. Nigeria has the largest GDP in Africa. hence Nigeria economically is the best Country in Africa.finish!

America in global rankings is not ranked ahead of Canada because American citizens enjoy more access to basic Amenities more than Canadian citizens no!!. America is ranked ahead of Canada because she out performs Canada Economically.

If Countries were graded based on Access to basic amenities, Scandanavian Countries, Canada would be leading the world while the like of Nigeria, USA and China would be the 3 worst countries in the world.

Do you understand sir?

first of all i am not afonja. it will make sense if you called me omo ka ro oji ire.

you do not belived me right. i will give you more than three. apart from abuja central , asokoro ,maintama ,wuse , garki. tell me which part of abuja is developed more than ado ekiti. even smelling ibadan is better than,karu ,gwangbalada ,kubuwa, jukwuyi. Gwarinpa district .

how do you tink research are carried out. do u think it is from house to house. brother there are three major form of research. but not limited. questionia ,observation and interveiw.. reserach were carried out and the outcome proof that nigerians are lying with their age to enter civil service and you can not defend it.

no one is using electricity as only yardstick of development here. i have made mention of enabling enviroment. a progressive country must posses enabling enviroment for business and stable energy if she is serious. Ghana and benin are serious in that regard. Threfore ghana is more suitable than nigeria.

human index development is the yardstick to measure development not gross domestic product. canada and scandavania countries outperform usa, china and germany. when it comes to human index development nigeria is behind ghana.

you have not step out of nigeria and you think your giant is really giant. giant of what？

You did'nt answer my last quiz.. How many refineries are functioning in PH?

Tea and Tourism in Kenya employs almost amillion employees each..

Kenyan Tea is mostly controlled KTDA (govt and small scale famers) so you know.

How many employees does oil mining companies employ?

All three refineries are working but not at full capacity dummy.

Nigerian oil mostly controlled by Nigerian government and Nigerian companies.

Many Nigerians got employed in the oil sector. In fact most of them are millionaires.

HarryDuce:

Even if that is the case and l was wrong, does it come close to Rivers state and Delta state combined? And how big is it compared to Rivers state ? My point is that Ghana is small compared to Nigeria, just Lagos competes with it for population.

Guy if you don't know what you are saying you better shout up.

I am currently based in Abuja and I've posted pics of many area here. So stop spitting rubbish and learn instead of passing assumption as fact.

The Ghana you so much praise have inflation rate of about 13% last month. Pls can you tell us the reason for that?

If you claim Nigerians lie about their age then it mean you have more elderly person than the source the guy gave. Besides, common sense is enough to know that most will still fall into the range as it will be difficult for any one to add more than 5 years to his age. This is because the age won't tally with the certificates of such person.

you are really a clown, just see for yourself the size of Ghana's western region and that of your river state... which is bigger? western region isn't the biggest region in Ghana.

secondly, we supply Togo and Benin with power, if you don't go and find out.
your nigeria is a failed state and you have to live with that for life. a country with oil yet no power.
our population is small but our citizens are OK but you with the biggest GDP, your citizens are poor to the extent that they are like refugees in Ghana and other countries.

nawa for una o. what pains me the most is that ur likes come here to display hate for Nigeria and from your speech it can be confirmed that Nigerian influence on the rest of Africa is huge. did you even know that 419 is a section of the Nigerian constitution that deal with fraud?

if you guys hate naija so much y not delete ur accounts and focus squarely on Kenya since you have nothing positive to say on a Nigerian forum we already have our own ish and self hating Africans are the least of our worries

They can't or won't.One of them claimed sometime ago that he frantically checks nairaland and got it introduced to a government official in kenya.I don't think any forum in their countries is as vibrant as this.Some of them don't even sleep at night,thinking about Nigerians and the next line of insults to use.I can see ghanaians,kenyans,ethiopians,somalis,algerians,botswanans,south africans,etc here.It's just a pity we only meet here to insult one another.

why are so harsh. Truth is bitter right. I have seen abuja quite very well. I can also attest to it that it is uncomparable with accra. Lagos will make sense.

yes the inflation is up to 13 percent yet it does not lead to reccesion. dont you think they deserve credit？
