It's not that I don't believe that it's one of the largest, I just haven't seen any proof that it was larger than those of some other places I mentioned.

Yes very disturbing... A lot of it are like students text books though... Like copying the Koran etc etc. Priceless items...

That is what Barbarians do though!! THey don't value history... The Barbarians also destroying some shrines because they said in Islam those shrines were being worshiped by the people instead of God!!

I hate barbarians!! grin grin grin

Yeah, that was wrong, but he looked how he looked. I would edit it out, but you quoted the post so. . .that's that.

Either way don't generalize!!


I judge people by how they act in front of me in real life not the internet but, most people tend to be nice to me... That is what happens when you look like an Emperor in the Heart of West Africa!! grin grin grin grin grin

That's why you were posting pictures of starving Somalis and comparing Somalis to baboons, right? Very "emperor-like" behavior. undecided

Ghana has not achieved much since independence..no African country has done anything to write home about. I have very high standards by which evaluate progress.

Evasive maneuvers part 2

Anyway, long story short, I said some dead dictator looked like a rat and you got all outraged even when you had been mocking Somali children and even comparing ordinary people that you don't know to baboons because of their nationality/ethnicity. Weird. undecided

Would you be offended if I told you what I thought of Gaddafi's appearance, or do you only have a soft spot for the Ethiopians?

Yes I would be offended... I don't talk about dead people!!

There is nothing a dead person can do to improve...

If you know of them by name, right?

But you label dead people from centuries ago barbarians even when you don't know for certain exactly how they lived.

I'll spare you what I think of Gaddafi's appearance because I don't want you to get all sensitive and start crying "sissy tears." grin

nope, it shows u are an underachiever who lacks the skills and know-how to properly manage anything. so u pat urself on the back for the little u were able to do, while the big kahuna takes over the business and puts it where it is supposed to be. like how nigerian banks are gradually taking over the banking sector in ur country.

That is what they are proud of... not looking like other Africans and exaggerated historical facts with a few lies thrown in! It seems shallow but, it is what it is... grin

People deserve to be proud!!!

The Germans are proud of their cars, Brazilian their football!!

Ghanaian their history in Africa, football, culture, leadership etc etc!!!

You dumb Bakassi's are proud of pumping oil out and having numerous babies!! grin grin ; Should I take that away from you!!

Everyone has what makes them proud and let them have it as long as it is not in your face all the time!!

I do think it is dangerous(and a sign of an inferiority complex) when one's pride has to put others down but, as long as it is online why cares??

grin grin

Shallow!! Yes!! Embarassing for others to read!! Sure! But, maybe that is all one can feel proud of so, don't take it away from 'em!!! wink

Thanks for helping prove one of my points..


See the lie you just posted is not much different from what they feel proud of!! This is what makes you proud even though it is largely a lie!!

Ghana is over-banked and would do with less banks!!!


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zF1Rw9o5GA4
But, you want to portray Nigeria as a power! Something very far from the truth since Nigeria cannot even take control of its whole country!!! grin grin grin grin grin

That is what makes you proud and it is a LIE!! grin grin grin
