Don't mind him bro. The only beautiful place Ghana can boast of is their capital which is Accra. And mind u, it is just very few places in Accra that are beautiful. I base in Dubai but my brother, the first time I came back to Nigeria and visited Abuja, I thought I was somewhere in Dubai. Mehn! My friend took me around the city of Abuja and I must confess that Abuja is damn beautiful. I can say same thing about Lagos as well. I have not really been to many cities in Nigeria but I know that there are a lot of beautiful cities in Nigeria coz I have seen the videos of many cities in Nigeria like Kano, Calabar, Owerri, Enugu, Port Harcourt, Uyo, Kaduna, Akure and many more. Honestly, if government can be able to fix the power problem in Nigeria, I don't think any other African country can be anywhere near Nigeria in terms of infrastructure and development apart from South Africa. I lived in Nairobi Kenya for one year and two months and I must tell you that Kenya is very far behind Nigeria. The only thing I like about Kenya is their stable electricity, though there are many places in Kenya that don't have electricity. And OP when next u want to compare, also remember to put into consideration the population of the country. I have been to so many countries and to be frank with u guys, I love Naija no matter what. I am from Imo state though.


lol
my brother tell me ooh.

Just that if you don't have a house in abuja
it's gonna hard for you ooh. dah Rent is killing
I stay in abuja tho.
Compared to some countries cities Abuja is better and okay..

We Nigerians need to be be vigilant because there are many impostors among us posing to be Nigerian but are in reality foreigners insulting our country in disguise... We (Nigerians) can say stuff about our selves but no outsider has that right...like I said it's either the OP is Ghanaian in disguise or an unpatriotic fool.

This is true.

Now to the second hotel where i lodged, eclipse hotel, cheap and quite accessible. The driver took my bag upstairs with the door to his matrix opened. That gives you a sense of safety.

13. When you start comparing the cost of there stuffs with an handicapped Naira, then you might not even be spending a kobo, you'll think those stuffs are expensive, not knowing that its due to a watery Naira. Coke goes for 2 or 3 cedis, which is like 222-333 naira, same as bottle water. So don't even compare.

But the coke tastes different and thicker.

14. Good Food, they sell jollof rice at every street corner, with nicely carved food shops just accessible. 2cedis, 4 cedis. Then, Ghana is a home of chicken, as they sell it alot likewise. And the nice thing is that almost at every spot, they microwave your food before serving you.

15. Mr Wale enjoying a nice meal of fried rice.

16. Bought this wanche with shittor for about 3cedis i think, here's a very cheap meal though. Really wanted to have a taste, and it was a nice mix of rice and beans.

5. Here is Total filling station at the entrance of Ghana (Afflao), it is obvious that the machine here is more sophisticated than those in Nigeria, I saw people paying for fuel by inserting atm cards in these machines, its all automatic.

6, 7, 8 Welcome to Accra, Ghana.

Is that not Total filling station with ATM powered fuel dispensing machines? Why can't they do same in their Nigeria stations?

....that exactly is the point....stop comparing Lagos to Accra...Lasgidi has bad and good...Accra and Ghana people are still relatively Loki's to Lagosians...Are we not talking about Lagos whose population is more than 75% of the total population of the whole Ghana?...there are bound to be advantages and disadvantages...next time u want to compare Accra u can do so with Calabar, Kaduna,Akure, PH etc but not even with Abuja....some of those food items like chicken jollof rice etc are tasteless compared to those in Nigeria....some of us have tried them before...so tasteless we were forced to be taking bread and sardines only....no food like ours....that is why our people find it profitable to set up Nigerian food centres in foreign lands like Dubai Uk US etc...even go to Monrovia there are fufu and amala centres....but some of u believe every Libya is better than naija....big mistake!....

God bless you jare.

Our country is big and diverse. Forget all the wahala, we are a wonderful people in a beautiful country.

Just that our government has refused to provide social amenities and opportunities for youths.

so coke and rice and beans are your problem? don't worry, just give me #1k and you'll have the best rice and beans you've ever tasted in your entire life plus a chilled bottle of a malt drink.

See how neat and orderly the city looks in the pictures...compared to Lagos undecided
Ambode, his cabinet members and entire Lagos State House of Assembly should go to Ghana and learn one or two things angry
Abuja, Uyo, Enugu can be compared to some parts of Ghana
Nigeria does revolve around Lagos alone...I mean , open your eyes people...have you been or at least seen places like Akwa-Ibom state or Cross river state and likes of them...the vegetation, the beautiful natural scenery, the atmosphere, the moist fresh air...
Nigeria is a very beautiful country I swear with diverse landscape.
Ghana does not compare believe that.
Nigeria's only problem is corruption, when we tackle corruption every other thing will fall into place.

I have no business with them. But you don't tell me my country is jagajaga and expect me to nod in agreement.
irrespective of where I am from and how I was raised, I speak for the public.. We can afford light, water, education, security, health etc but as a poor man in nigeria, you can't afford it.. But in ghana, such poor person can enjoy those things I am enjoying in nigeria.. That makes nigeria messed up..

We Africans we have our problem but here in the states where I live, I rarely here Ghanaians lament about no light, no water, insecurity... But when I am in my nigerian people or community, be it Yoruba, Igbo or pidgin, it is the same complain.. All this makes nigeria jagajaga.

In Ghana, it is a big shame when they play eedris abdulkareem song jagagaga... The song is a hit but the way they all go gaga and mock Nigeria, you will bend your head in the club..

Even my burkinabe gf was disappointed about how disorganized Lagos, Nigeria was when she came visiting.. She said, my country may not be rich as yours but there is a good sense of order living in burkina faso.. She was right when I paid visit to ougadougou and bobodioulasso...

Re: My Ghana Experience 2017 by zuto4u(m): 5:11pm On Nov 30, 2017
That is why I said that the population of the country should also be put into consideration. In every countries of the world, there are stubborn and calm people.
U might be able to control a group of 50 people in a geographical location but u might not be able to control a group of hundred people in that same location. Do you know that the population of the whole of Ghana is slightly higher than the population of Lagos alone? Nigerians should learn to be appreciative and grateful. I know that a lot of things are going wrong in Nigeria, but when you visit two or three different countries, you will understand that life is not easy anywhere.
Ugosample:


Have you been to Abidjan before

Abidjan will put both your Lagos and Abuja to shame

From the lights, to the superb infrastructures, to the central water system (Neither Lagos or Abuja has this) and many other things that I will rather not mention

The Problem with Nigerians is that we don't like telling ourselves the truth.

Accra infrastructure may be basic, but the simple fact that they are more law abiding, and are not scared of their law enforcement is enough to beat our so called Lekki etc.
