10 things I observed when I visited Ghana as a Nigerian

#westafrica #ghana #kumasi In this video, I shared 10 things I observed when I visited Ghana as a Nigerian. Ghana is definitely one of my favorite countries in Africa. The culture of Ghana is amazing and the people are kind, polite, and respectful. The nation is quite accommodating to travelers, with low crime rates, and no insurgency. There is a sense of tranquility in the nation even during elections! There are many interesting historical sites and museums to tour in Ghana.

    I like it when Ghanaians approach people with their local dialect... That tells Ghanaians dont discriminate by looking at you...if u dont tell them...every Ghanaian see any black person as one if them

    Spot on… we do not discriminate…. We assume we all one hence the first approach is the local dialect… that’s what a lot of foreigners don’t recognize

    Good observation!! Nigeria and Ghana share a lot of similarities from food, language like yoruba, (Ga tribe in Ghana traced the ancestral to Yoruba).. Most of these similarities are due to the fact that we were colonized by Britain. Most of the children u saw on the street are not Ghanaians. They are different west African states like Niger, Mali, Burkina

    Thanks for the insight. I have seen a lot of comments here that the kids begging on the street are not Ghanaians. You just echoed this also. Yes, you are right about Nigeria and Ghana similarities. I think we have some similarities that are not related to both countries been colonised by Britain. But, I agree with you about some of the similarities came as a result of colonisation. Thanks for the comment.

    @@emmanuelarthur354 Most homeless people in America are drug addicts who refuse to live by the rule and by law you can not force them. For your information, elementary and high school education are free. On the other hands the poorest of the poors in Ghana are not living but merely existing. The so-called free school is a joke because most schools in the impoverished areas have no desks and chairs.

    Ghanaian children mostly are the ones who sell on our streets. I can also say that most of them go to school. On the other hand the children from other African countries rather operate as street beggars. You were not categorical enough on the difference between the two countries in terms of electricity supply. Another glaring difference you surprisingly omitted is in the area of security; the contrast is like heaven and hell. One area that Nigeria outshines Ghana is selling of food in public. As far as I know every food sold publicly in Nigeria is nicely covered and better handled. In terms of weather and vegetation, they're literally the same. All said, these two countries are third world countries and are both in the list of the world's poorest 30 countries. So no one should claim superiority over the other.

    Thank you for the comment. I mentioned few things that came to mind in terms of what I was used to in Nigeria. However, the video isn't mainly the difference between Nigeria and Ghana. However, you points are valuable and highly appreciated. You are right, I felt peace in Ghana and it's true that Nigeria is facing a lot of insecurity issues and Ghana is better in that regard. Hopefully our countries in Africa can lift a lot of the population out of poverty and improve the quality of living.

    Why did you not dip the fufu into the soup before swallowing? This is a serious crime. Dont swallow fufu raw without soup. Next time you eat fufu, make sure to dip it into the soup, and also make sure there is enough soup in your palm and on the fufu before you swallow it.

    That’s correct. English is the major language of instruction in schools and widely spoken either as normal or broken English. But, Ghana and Nigeria do have their own languages and very diverse especially in Nigeria. Three major ones in Nigeria are Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa languages while in Ghana Twi is spoken by majority. In Ghana there are also other languages spoken by Ga, Ewe, Dagbani and perhaps other ones.

    Hi, thanks for your comment. While I appreciate you sharing your thoughts which a lot of people shared the same thing. I am referring to children begging on the street which many commentators mentioned that they are not Ghanaian. However, it's unnecessarily what you added in the latter part of your comment. We are trying to preach unity among ourselves. It is important we put our messages across without offending one another. Friendly and rivalry banter is fine but there should be boundary to how we do it. Anyways, thanks for your comment and I love you brother.

    The children and the adult that beg on Ghana's streets are not Ghanians. They mostly comes from the northern African countries. I think they come down here because they know that Ghanians are sympathetic people. Iook at their futures carefully and you can tell they don't have the West African features. One love Africa.
