Especially that torture idiot. That guy really makes me question Ghana educational standards. If these are the kind of people Ghana depends on to build her future then I can confidently say Ghana is doomed to fail.

Shma:
what are you saying,
Those players just fixed up things to cover up the shame from the beating they received.
Ghanaians with all the masculinity in the leg can't complain of potholes especially when they walk on it daily.

Fix your roads, make your stadiums looks appealing and we can have this discussion.

Mkenya2019:
What private airline in Ghana and Nigeria. KQ's own subsidiaries alone beat all of them combined.

KQ has Jambojet flying regionally. It also own majority of TZ Flamingo or Precision Airline.

You cannot hack airline industry because simple stuff like keeping time is nuclear science for you.

gallivant:


Ghana is already failed. Oil is keeping their necks above the water.

Just30:


the ones that fly in and out, are they cars ?

Just30:


i guess i have to give you a video from last year again.


While you go back to Kenyatta and ask him why since independence, Kenya has only tarred 5% of it roads at 10,000km

When Ghana has done 36,000km (33%) as at 2019

Wuoche:


Remember I`m quoting your road minister. So tell me, how long is you road network? Is it 109,000km or 780,000km or 72,000km? Whichis which. Your answer should be accompanied by a confirmatory link

Saddamochieng00:




So you want to mean that Ghana has no future

vankelvin:
Well, a ''doomed state'' is a Country where slowpoke Citizens fight among themselves because an Opposition Political Party loss an Election.
A ''doomed State'' is when Citizens cook stones as their supper.
A ''doomed state'' is when Wives are rented out to foreigners for money.
A ''doomed state'' is when a President drinks alcohol openly for the whole World to see.
A ''doomed state'' is when HIV cases are more than Malaria cases.
Perhaps you may need to do more research on how a doomed State looks like, and Kenya will be somewhere in the picture..lol

gallivant:


In that case, then oil is really a curse.

Baliv254:




thanks for reminding us about something else we also floor your entire precious WA region

Justnotyou:


Yes the Ghanaian said so hence it was... Why don't you let us shower away our ignorance with just one respectable source that supports your claim.

Baliv254:
wont see shit like this in west africa
kenya ethiopia tanzania uganda and rwanda all operate their own

Wuoche:

Show me link which states that you have paved 36.000km of roads. In Kenya, the total paved roads stood at 21,000km in 2019 and I can provide you with evidence. For now it`s your turn to show us the evidence.

edon21:
did stadiums make Brazil Olympic champions? Having stadiums is part of having infrastructures. That's why you can't host reasonable events. Only ribshows. Lol

vankelvin:
NO
Ghana has a brighter future than your East Africa
because, we don't fight among ourselves because an Opposition Political Party loss an Election.
We the Citizens don't cook stones as our supper.
Our Wives are not rented out to foreigners for money.
Our President doesn't drink alcohol openly for the whole World to see.
Our HIV cases are not more than Malaria cases.
Perhaps you may need to do more research on how a failed State looks like, and Kenya will be somewhere in the picture..lol

Our total road network is 109,515km. https://www.ghanaiantimes.com.gh/the-importance-of-good-road-network-in-ghana/

Road minister misquoted on two occasions at different radio stations
The first time, he said 780,000km and the next time he did, he went for a more conservative figure of 72,000km which was below 1980 figures.

Leave the Brazilians out of it. The facts speak for themselves Nigerian.

Don't mind them,they are poor.

Ok, out of that 109,000km only 12% is paved. That`s around 12,000km ofpaved roads

Shma:
it might be true going by the satellite representation.
So the section of paved road is not that far from 12, 000km.

Shma:
your road network is barely 12k km to 16k km.
I will give you 18k km max.

Baliv254:




This is what you have resorted to because you cant compete

Just30:
you can tell me what is 33% of 109,515km

Ghana total road network was 78,000km in 1980.
Update yourself.

Ghana is acknowledged internationally as having one of the best road networks in West Africa, with 109,515 km of roads, of which 13,787 km are major roads.

The Ghana Highway Authority has the mandate of constructing and maintenance of roads in the country and has done so by connecting national roads to all the major cities and towns of the country.

The road network is of primary and critical importance to the economy, with more than 95 per cent of people and 98 per cent of goods being transported by road.

Roads make a crucial contribution to the country’s economic development and growth and bring important social benefits.

Additionally, they are of vital importance in order to make a nation grow and develop. Its contribution to providing access to employment, social, health and education services makes a road network crucial in fighting poverty.

Indeed, roads open up more areas and stimulate economic and social development. For these reasons, road infrastructure is the most important of all public assets.

Therefore, maintaining road infrastructure is essential to preserve and enhance those benefits. However, it appears that most roads across that country lack maintenance which has resulted in irreversible deterioration of part of the road network in the country.

Insufficient maintenance and unmotorable roads are known to cause hardships, result in soaring cost of living and a major financial impact on the economy and citizens.

With this in mind, it is important for decision-makers to recognise that roads play a very vital role in the economic life of citizens, especially those in remote areas who experience difficulties transporting their goods, travelling from one point to another within the country or even catching up on new developments.

Improving the general road network in the rural areas is a measure to alleviate poverty. Beyond alleviation of poverty, the importance of rural roads extends to all aspects of development of rural communities including demand for and access to health, education, among others.

However, most rural roads in the country experience numerous challenges in their maintenance which is why we share in the concerns raised by citizens over poor roads in some parts of the country.

The latest to do that is the Paramount Chief of the Tongo Traditional Area, Tongraan Kugbilsong who appealed to the government to adopt accelerated approach to work on poor road networks in the Upper East Region.

This is not the first time that this concern is being raised. Many community leaders and individuals have raised issues about roads and we believe it is time they are tackled as a matter of national priority.

Maintenance and development of road networks offer economic benefits over the long term and that is why, we must take advantage of it and make life comfortable particularly, for those living in rural communities.
