Ghana is a great nation, amazed by this video, its good to see our African brothers progressing, I wish the same for Pakistan, hopefully we will be at the top one day! 🇬🇭 🇵🇰🙏🏽
I have been to India because of me having family in the nation. The Indian people do say that everything is okay yet they are in a horrible situation. Let’s start with the pollution. I have spent two days in Delhi max, about three months in Patna *capital of Bihar*, one week in Kashmir *in 2015*, and about 3 hours in Bombay. There is one connection with all the cities. They have high populations and pollution. The villages are an even worse situation with an ever larger lack of first world devices. However, Kashmir, a bit before India ruined the area, was okay. Next, I am too lazy to write a UA-cam comment this long so bye.
Now just 4years since I first visit my motherland GHANA was 2011 and just last year I came back again and I was wondering how can Ghana change just 4years . Now I long coming back again. because it is what our first leader dream of our dear MOTHERLAND SWEET GHANA the best place in Africa. please help me to thank MAHAM for making Dr Nkurmaa 's dream come true. we love our Ghana our motherland .
I am from India and I support development of Africa and good relationship between us. As both of us gone through many problems due to European. Love u Africa.
All of the US doesn't look like downtown Manhattan either, or Beverly Hills California. Take a walk thru Appalachia, Mississippi or the South Side of Chicago. The majority of the US is not someplace anyone would want to live either. Get out of the Sunken Place and stop seeing everything thru the eyes of those who feel superior to Africans or people of African descent.
dina: @MrSivram28 is Indian and Dina responds by citing the USA. Any reason ? You are suffering from another aspect of the same mentality you are trying to denounce.
I am a Mississipian, and just like people have stereotyped the continent of Africa, they also stereotype us because we never make news headlines, unless it is for something negative. It is the same way with Chicago. There is only a small portion of Chicago that is the "warzone" portrayed by the media. Please do not think that you can just "walk through" Mississippi" and everyone and everything is one big stereotype.
and to those saying there is animation included in this video, i am Ghana and i see all that is going on with respect to development what you just saw is real , its a shame to false promote our country
I am glad to see that you are proud of your country. This is rarely mentioned in the news, but the fastest growing economy in the world is not in China or India, but in Sub-Saharan Africa. Africa was a sleeping giant, but now it's slowly waking up. -Love from the USA.
Ghana is an INCREDIBLE place and i've learnt so much from my time there, I stayed there for a month this summer and loved it. There are some beautiful parts and some amazing beaches, the people are also some of the best out there. However, it's not all that pretty as seen in this video, there are also some very impoverished areas, especially when you go inland.
I only knew Ghana for their good boxers like Azumah Nelson, Ike Quartey, Clottey, etc. then for the participation in the world cups, until i see this video. In spanish Ghana pronunciation is gana, WIN in spanish. Congratulations from Panamá.
Africans need to unite, to help educate the world and rather stop insulting eachother.Afterall most parts of the world see Africa as a poverty stricken place with the people malnourished.Which generally is NOT TRUE!.A continent very rich in resources but what do we have to show? Forbes list controlled by the west often place us where in terms of wealth?...Stop the insults,help develop your respective countries and together Africa will be great.United Africa
I have some people say Africa unite but the don't no any thing about Africa. The only place in the world where things are seen in black and white perspective is in Africa there layers to this continent call Africa. Our diversity is our straight.
I understand your point very well.But that is the society we live in now,diversity in everything..But if Africa needs to be strong we need to keep tolerating eachothers views and opinions, and thus see ourselves as one.Constructive criticisms devoid of insults,that is the way forward.The unity I meant was in the view of humanity and our location on the map,Africa.When Africa is insulted is not a particular tribe,clan e.t.c but the residents of that land.We also need to stop supporting wrong,base on the fact that he/she is from my country,if you have your country and the continent at heart you should practice the culture of educating the person to do right.Thanks
The way forward is simple - We need effective leadership. It all starts and ends with leadership. the captain of the ship is the most important aspect when it comes to steering the ship to its destination. Most African Nations lack that
Good but we all know we still have a lot of work to do. Like CNN your video does not tell the full story either. Anyway Ghana first, Mahama or Akuffo Addo we just need the country to move forward in every aspect so lets do our part and stop the party colours. Elections have ended Ghana has spoken lets move on.
Why didn't you capture on ground ? and you use a drone or you just got a new drone.

@@benx3365 errm...I'm sorry but that is not Ghana, the fact that it's like in your home town does not mean it's like that everywhere in the country It really sucks to see such comments I agree Ghana still has work to do but there was no point exaggerating like you've done
This is a tiny part of their biggest city, which has a population of several million people. As much as I love to see human development, don't be misled by lies.
If that was the major part of Ghana, I think CNN would've captured it. However move from the sky (Aerial view) and walk on the streets in Nima, Chorkor, Jamestown, Kantamanto and even legon and you will be greeted with open gutters and filth. And that's the reality of Accra, not the aerial view being showed here.
Bernard Hesse it's because of attitude like yours.... That's why we are where we are. Talking about the reality on the ground doesn't mean I don't love my continent. It means I see a problem and want our leaders to tackle it.
Most of the comments you'll read from this thread are politically driven. I won't say Ghana is a paradise but i think we're on a path of developing it. The world media doesn't show this because they have tuned the minds of their viewers to only buy negative African news. Let's keep building the nation and change the view of mother Africa in the eyes of the world. #Bless
It really warms my heart to see countries develop. The progress we have made in the last 60 years with foreign aid, new technology, and education is utterly staggering. Yes, there is still a lot of pain in the world but really this is the best time ever and it will only get better from here... if climate change is dealt with.
why international medias is constantly showing the worst side of developing countries like India , Pak , Sri Lanka, or other African Countries and so many other developing countries . our countries are also developing and achieving so many goals, I am an Indian , i don't know about other countries achievements in various fields, why because International Medias do not give Much attention or Importance to many Major Inventions in these countries, My Country India have one of the best Space Organisation in the world, Rated as one of the best Place for investments in Asia , so many corporate world is investing here . If you take World Best Doctors , Scientists, Innovations , Business Peoples , there will be Indians . Most of the Scientists work in NASA, Microsoft, GOOGLE , Amazon are Indians. Despite all this - Most of the International Channels likes to show only the worst side of the developing countries like us. So the Common people like us believe in what they show. This is how International Medias are Cheating Common People in Different Country, Thus it makes common people unaware of other countries achievements and bright side .
steeson mathew il tell you why cuz it supplys useless people with huge salarys just look up what a charity boss earns. And remember that money was intended for really poor people. Ps this was one city, i saw no farms to feed the people or a river or lake to get sweet water from. 2 very importend things. And some people justly say rural ghana looks way different. Your average villiges are not even close to that. Here in the netherlands even our small villages have flowing water, internet, electricity ect. Well i think you get where im going with this. Altough we probably have one off the best in the netherlands we still think it can always be better. Never be satisfied and always shoot for the moon ;). When you reach the mook aim for mars and so on. But you guys are on the right track keep it up ;).
steeson mathew Thats the idea buddy, politics at its finest but dont fall into their bullshit...the West are not rich folks...they cant feed their own people.
Yes, the same as showing Manhattan in New York and not showing the Bronx or the Capital in DC and not showing southeast DC projects, or showing downtown Philadelphia, PA and not showing south Philadelphia.
mgm mgm you're out your fucking mind or totally full of shit. If you can't find them in your cities, what the fuck do you do with them? Hide them from view or liquidate them?
Look we understand Ghana needs improvement but this is about countering the blatant lies by CNN not about promo for Mahama. Constructive criticism is needed for leaders but some of you talk like you want Ghana to remain poor, needing western aid and be seen as hopeless. I have stopped talking and am now investing in GH, some of you practice what you preach then Ghana will move onto the next levels. Good luck Nana Akufo Ago.
God bless you Gana Country God bless you Greater Mather África, África Unite ! Beautiful Gana. From here Brazil. Gana yes this on my prayers. Save a prayer for África grow up always !
A few isolated shots of some finished buildings still isn't good enough. If they can raise a city out of a desert you Ghana should be a metropolis you've had enough time. This video does not portray a balanced view of Ghana at all
wunademones I would expect a rational being to answer with clear and concise reasoning as to why a positive vid should be painted with such a negative thought. Rome was not built in a day. And, who are you to propose key development metric and with this, who determines what should be the highest end. Every country has its own problems. If you quick to point/exaggerate the faults of one just to show how good or superior you are, you end up being a mockery of yourself. To end this, compare modern china to 1950 china. During those times, stupid people like you criticised every major move along their route to becoming a strong nation. So, fuck you and also wherever you come from.
Blah blah blah blah blah the facts still remain! a few isolated shots of a few houses and infrastructure while 95% of the rest of the country is sitting in dusty roads and open sewers is not progress no matter how delusional you are determined to be. Stupid people like you fail to realise that countries like South Korea who started out on the same GDP as Ghana during the Nkrumah era have idustrialised and modernised into a 1st world countries. The UAE have managed to raise elite cities within 25 years and you still have the audacity to spew your blind, senseless patriotic nonesense becuase i am simply pointing out the very harsh reality to which you take offense to. It's like living in a cardboard box on the street and celebrating how buetiful the Iphone is in the corner of your cardboard box that is about to fall apart should the weather determine so.
wunademones I do agree with you concerning the pace with which we are progressing. I do not confirm mediocrity. I believe that our development is past overdue. However, It would be utterly bias not to consider external influences that have impeded development in sub-Saharan Africa. It is with this that, I still stand on this island of hope surrounded by forces who will wish nothing but destruction of the continent. With this said, I also believe that internally, we have our own issues hindering progress. This will take some for us to united to become a true republic. It took years, centuries before eurpean tribes Unite to form nations. The rest is history. The oldest african country is between 60 to 70 years old. So, it will take some time but surely africa will get there.
JuliePastry.com Ghana....Yes there are blighted cities and neighborhoods but I don't think anyone is without to the point they dont have access to drinking water, food etc. I will say though, a man I worked with for years who is from Ghana, retired from the State of IL and is heading back there as we speak. He says he can live like a king there now. Good for him if thats what he wants to do.
Woah I didn't know they had all this in Africa I thought everyone was poor. I bet this is like propaganda only showing the good parts and not the bad parts like the do in North Korea
Wow Ghana really developed alot this last years so did Nigeria and West Africa In General, greetings from the country who loved discovering africa, Portugal.
this is beautiful. but I think why people always look at Africa as poor. majority of Africans don't live like this or visit a hospital like this. poor people in Germany will have this quality of life just as a rich person in Ghana. Ghana should work on improving everyone lives rather than try to keep up with the Joneses.
no I think its fine just the way it is. you dont know economics. everything comes from nature. so you should learn what the fuck youre eating before you tell Africa what to do
Africa needs its own satellite to tell it's own story,there's no way ,aperson from Washington Post or British tribunal would tell our story,they only report poverty,war,malnurished people,but they won't report how there malti billions companies are aiding war,hunger and puverty in our continent,we need to tell our own story how best we could.
Yah cause price of goods are not as inflated as it is in America. And oh.. majority of the population don't live on credit card, drowning in students loans and auto loans. So yah...
in 1995 I have learned about Accra in Primary 4, that it is the city that has some heavy cross traffics and now i am seeing how it expanded. wish am from Ghana
AFRICA is for AFRICANS? How would you like it if someone in Europe said EUROPE is for EUROPEANS / WHITES??? This is the same racist BS you fight against.
Емил Ефендулов the phrase afriaca is for africans is meant to wake up our people in diaspora who have forgotten our homeland due to the dispursment of our people through Slavery. We had forgotten our idenity so this phrase lets us know that we have a homeland and a heritage its not meant to be racist
60 minutes ones featured a segment in Kenya about mobile phone-based payment system. Though the system is used through out the Kenya the country, 60 minutes focussed mostly on showing usage amongst the poor and those in the slums. Had I not been to Kenya I would have had a different image about that beautiful country.
I know someone who went to Ghana, on a project. She said she was surprised to see so many AA living there and striving. The ones she saw has businesses and were living well.
Development refers to the totality of a country, not just a small pocket of a town called Accra. Don't show off Accra in this manner when there are millions of people starving. We should demand from our leaders that what is good for certain parts of Accra - and, by the way, not all of Accra is developed - is certainly good for all the towns and villages in Ghana. How can we be happy if one person is left out, let alone towns and villages?
80% of my family is in Ghana ranging from those living in "villages" to upper middle class inhabitants in Accra. What millions of starving people are you talking about? Holding leaders to account and wanting transformational change is one thing....repeating lies about starving Ghanaians parrot fashion is another thing.
Come on! Everywhere in the world even in the most developed countries[even America] have cities or towns that don't fare as well. Which millions are you referring to? Have you been to Ghana?
It is understandable that the Ex President would like the world to believe this is Ghana & its true these places do exist.The group that posted this clip is called "Ghana at Work" but as the Ex President admitted at his press briefing in January 2016 the Government has no idea how many people are actually unemployed because the Government does not have the ability to provide the statistics.I have not seen the CNN clip so I don,t know what they showed however I noticed there was no views of the poorer parts of Accra like Community 22 in Tema or Ashaiman in this clip.
masa ibi u pe way u go school.go c united state no job for the youth for der.if u no get aban edwuma go find something do n stop this politics.the good things the ex prezo do koraah u guys they talk bulshit.wat e do masa u go fi do am.
Philip Lewis you wont see either 700 or people that was murdered in Chicago this year alone. not will you see in cnn 1000 of homeless roaming the streets of sanfranchisco
Babacar Gueye Your point is that when CNN & other western media organizations report on the US or Europe they don,t tell the full story is that correct ? In regard to this clip put out by the Ex President you think it is OK to show the parts that show Ghana in a good light whilst ignoring the appalling conditions that lots of Ghanaian,s live under.Are you not advocating exactly what you claim western media does in US & Europe ? That is show the good parts & ignore the rest.
Is Accra not part of Ghana ? Have you been to Kumasi ? Have you been to Cape coast and other parts of the country ? please be wise and stop talking like a fool
migf27 BBC did a cover story on poverty in the US, it was really awful and deplorable the way the US treats them. As the supposedly richest country in the world we spend a pittance on medical, mental health, education, and our ailing infrastructure. We are going backward to the turn of last century very slowly. CNN is a crappy news network as are all MSM news. We had RT but the fascist politicians banned it because it showed the true picture of America.
CNN does not portray a good picture of Ghana because China is heavily investing in Ghana's future. And China and the US have tension, so CNN will not want to portray China in a good light.
They said the same about India. India is rising, how is Ghana any different? What does India or China have that Ghana doesn't? Go beyond the despair and look at the future brother.
I love Ghana and Ghanaian people they're so kind much love from Sudan for you guys we admire you ..... Love for our Africa ..... U.A.C ( United African countries ) Sudan , Ethiopia , Nigeria , Tanzania , south Africa , Rwanda , Botswana , Ghana , Kenya , Congo , Uganda , Mali , Somalia , Chad , Angola , Zambia , Zimbabwe , Mozambique , Niger , Namibia , Gabon , Cameron , Senegal , Mauritania , Burkina Faso , Guinea , central Africa , Liberia , Gambia , Togo , Madagascar , Djibouti, Eritrea may God bless you all brothers .
Half of these shots look like they're made with 20 year old shit CGI. And I don't recall anybody arguing that there aren't nice seeming parts of Ghana. A few shots don't make an argument about a country. If Ghana is such a star, make compelling arguments to support this, not emotional appeals with images of the built up area of your biggest city at night.
Babatunde Famutimi You think? Let's face it. The flip side of the coin (open gutters with filth, poor roads, poor agricultural systems, agric produce ~tomatoes and oranges~ going to waste because of lack of processing facilities to process them, unsanitary conditions) is the true reality of Ghana not this aerial view of a few recently renovated buildings. Let's call a spade a spade. We were talking about the Kwame Nkrumah circle being a little Dubai, but just walk a few meters from circle and you will be greeted with the filthy stream that separated the Neoplan station from the Circle station
Are you from Ghana? Are you an American or African? Every African wants to make their country look beautiful. I am a Nigerian and I know my country is not a utopia but I still love my country. I study and live in the United States but I still recognize Nigeria as my motherland. I do not need to think about racial discrimination in Nigeria, nobody calls me a minority in Nigeria, I do not get scared in Nigeria when the police stop me. I can keep on going. If CNN wants news they should go to the streets of America and make a news report on racial abuse, homeless people, inadequate schools and all the remaining nonsense America claims is not their fault.
....and you are telling me you've never heard all those things you are talking about on CNN? Once you know America is not utopia it means you heard or read about the flip side from the media. I don't think where I'm from is relevant to the point I'm trying to send across..Every part of the world have their positives and negatives.. I just feel the problems in Africa out weighs the positives.
Black White great that u recognised that their is negative nd positive problem all over the world ..But at least let's be honest nd call a spade"a spade. CNN never show any bright side of Africa ..its always bad side of it . telling the rest of the world that nothing good comes from Africa but when you look very well..They are the real cause of the problems there either by instigating the opposition or looby the government to loot from their own gain afterwards they will be offered asylum in Europe. until we realised this and take the bull by the horn. .It continues this way.
Sometimes I wonder about the level of stupidity of some so called Ghanaians. You're the kind that will refuse to identify your country of origin and will always refer to it as Africa as if Africa is a country. The kind that will tell people how poor the whole Africa is just to fit in. Kwasia!
+twesam ,infact,u are more stupid than asiedu nketia,i can see u can also wear your wife's coat to meet a delegation if given the chance,cos u are just a damp nitwit thwart,u insult me for saying the truth,fool cant u see its an animation video? twerp get a life.
ACCRA GHANA LOOK BEAUTIFUL. ONE DAY GHANA WILL BECOME THE CRADLE OF CIVILIZATION. KEEP IT UP. I AM FROM NIGERIA. Africa will get there someday, leaders only need to be more patriotic
WOW! I have literally fallen in love with Ghana. A lot of respect and love to Ghana from India.
We welcome u dear
Beautiful and amazing!!
Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬
Well done Ghana
Gana is beautiful! Africa is wonderful! This Africa the media must show! Greetings from Brazil !
Ghana is a great nation, amazed by this video, its good to see our African brothers progressing, I wish the same for Pakistan, hopefully we will be at the top one day! 🇬🇭 🇵🇰🙏🏽
I love CNN
Who ever did this deserves some accolades 💗💗💗💥💥💥
Hahaha some people can't stand to see African countries doing well
I notice anytime you show Africa doing well or China they go crazy.
Yes ooooo, ❤
white people can't stand to see African countries doing well
I have been to India because of me having family in the nation. The Indian people do say that everything is okay yet they are in a horrible situation.
Let’s start with the pollution. I have spent two days in Delhi max, about three months in Patna *capital of Bihar*, one week in Kashmir *in 2015*, and about 3 hours in Bombay. There is one connection with all the cities. They have high populations and pollution. The villages are an even worse situation with an ever larger lack of first world devices. However, Kashmir, a bit before India ruined the area, was okay.
Next, I am too lazy to write a UA-cam comment this long so bye.
Greeting to our sisters and brothers in Ghana from the kingdom of Morocco we wish for u the best ❤💪🔥
Nutella boy we wish u all the blessing of the Almighty Allah too❤
Greetings to the great Kingdom of Morocco

As a tunisian, I m proud of you Ghanaians and proud of the progress that your country has reached. Keep working harder
Now just 4years since I first visit my motherland GHANA was 2011 and just last year I came back again and I was wondering how can Ghana change just 4years .
Now I long coming back again. because it is what our first leader dream of our dear MOTHERLAND SWEET GHANA the best place in Africa. please help me to thank MAHAM for making Dr Nkurmaa 's dream come true. we love our Ghana our motherland .
let us hope for better thank God
GOD BLESS OUR HOMELAND GHANA❤❤❤❤❤❤ proudly Ghanaian
I am from India and I support development of Africa and good relationship between us. As both of us gone through many problems due to European. Love u Africa.
Looks nice, but we all no this does not represent majority of Ghana.
We all know that, and it's not about the whole country, this video is a rebuff to a CNN reportage
All of the US doesn't look like downtown Manhattan either, or Beverly Hills California. Take a walk thru Appalachia, Mississippi or the South Side of Chicago. The majority of the US is not someplace anyone would want to live either. Get out of the Sunken Place and stop seeing everything thru the eyes of those who feel superior to Africans or people of African descent.

Ok !!! LOL !!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🖐
and to those saying there is animation included in this video, i am Ghana and i see all that is going on with respect to development what you just saw is real , its a shame to false promote our country
Hey, since you live in the country, can you tell me what type of jobs are in demand in Ghana?
This is ghana bruh...Am not sure you live in Accra..He is not false promoting anything
This is Ghana papa😹😹
Proud of Ghana...love from India..I hope with this developments the natural beauty would also sustain
I am glad to see that you are proud of your country. This is rarely mentioned in the news, but the fastest growing economy in the world is not in China or India, but in Sub-Saharan Africa. Africa was a sleeping giant, but now it's slowly waking up.
-Love from the USA.
WOW, it's so developed, they have a device that opens the door when you're near them!
Ghana is an INCREDIBLE place and i've learnt so much from my time there, I stayed there for a month this summer and loved it. There are some beautiful parts and some amazing beaches, the people are also some of the best out there. However, it's not all that pretty as seen in this video, there are also some very impoverished areas, especially when you go inland.
Good for you! Let your clarion call be heard! Beautiful, I want to go there and live. God bless!
I only knew Ghana for their good boxers like Azumah Nelson, Ike Quartey, Clottey, etc. then for the participation in the world cups, until i see this video. In spanish Ghana pronunciation is gana, WIN in spanish. Congratulations from Panamá.

Denis Zume I don't see Africa uniting anytime. Ghadaffi tried it and where is he now. The west won't allow it.
Black and white in your opinion what is the way forward?Thanks for your reply
The way forward is simple - We need effective leadership. It all starts and ends with leadership. the captain of the ship is the most important aspect when it comes to steering the ship to its destination. Most African Nations lack that
Good but we all know we still have a lot of work to do. Like CNN your video does not tell the full story either. Anyway Ghana first, Mahama or Akuffo Addo we just need the country to move forward in every aspect so lets do our part and stop the party colours. Elections have ended Ghana has spoken lets move on.
Danny Ampaw wise words - as a white UK males I've visited twice recently. Wonderful country, wonderful people
Why didn't you capture on ground ? and you use a drone or you just got a new drone.
You will see open market on walking pavement all DAY and NIGHT & pedestrians walking in the middle of roads then if a car knocks you down the police will tell you, You were JAIL WALKING... Funny Right.
And No bin in the city's and if there 'is' is filled up with rubbish A.K.A BOLA for like 6 MONTHS so forget about the Villages.
the roads that you see from the drone like a bird flying, every view from top is nice in it. the interchange is full of posters from all kinds of pastors that always preach to be good people, then tell their advertising agencies to print their posters and paste it on the interchange that the gov. has make a concrete design saying POST NO BILL.
this video was made when it was about to be open and some are still not open yet. Because Ghanaians know why...
Now come and see BOla Smelling as hell...
PotHoles in roads that you can plant COCOA or flowers in it..
Potholes in roads that are filled with a watery mound that kids call it MILO A.K.A Cold chocolate.
Gov. medical Labs can go on strike for days, teachers can go on strike on examination day so the student will miss their test all to MAFIA the Gov.
A country that you are a college or university student that doesn't have lectures and you want to watch a bit of TV and get educated, all you get on TV is Political Debate 24hr or Indian movie for an adult and the content too is for like married 35years old. so it makes every child in Ghana a politician and untalented
And every underage child has a political party and the position of the parent, either NPP or NDC when you come to ghana ask 1 and see..
A country that doesn't have road signs but you might see police on roads just given High 5 to some Drivers and there are No seat beat in most cars and No Bus system too..
every commercial TroTro bus is in the association of G.P.R.T.U and all of those buses, non is haven seatbelt for passengers.
Hmm i can't say it all man, is like explaining hell....
never wish to be a Ghanaian now, leaving in this country 2018, may be hopefully this new gov. will help, let see 2020, when their term ENDS.
how I wish I can travel Back in time to 1957 to tell this story, at the Independence Day to Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.
great man talking
GFY GFY well ive been back a third time since my last text and hope to return again soon!
@@benx3365 errm...I'm sorry but that is not Ghana, the fact that it's like in your home town does not mean it's like that everywhere in the country
It really sucks to see such comments
I agree Ghana still has work to do but there was no point exaggerating like you've done
Love it! Show us more of real Africa and all the development being made there. Greetings from Brazil!
This is a tiny part of their biggest city, which has a population of several million people.
As much as I love to see human development, don't be misled by lies.
Thats an amazing video, I will love to react to it on my channel with your permission
If that was the major part of Ghana, I think CNN would've captured it. However move from the sky (Aerial view) and walk on the streets in Nima, Chorkor, Jamestown, Kantamanto and even legon and you will be greeted with open gutters and filth. And that's the reality of Accra, not the aerial view being showed here.
Black White no they do this to all African Countries that's whites think we still live in huts
Those are ignorant whites. But you are right. A lady once asked me if we have paper money (notes) in Africa. Another asked if we have pizza in Africa.
Black White shame on u bad bele
Bernard Hesse it's because of attitude like yours.... That's why we are where we are. Talking about the reality on the ground doesn't mean I don't love my continent. It means I see a problem and want our leaders to tackle it.
faustina acquah maybe if you quit being so emotional you will understand the point I am trying to make.
Most of the comments you'll read from this thread are politically driven. I won't say Ghana is a paradise but i think we're on a path of developing it. The world media doesn't show this because they have tuned the minds of their viewers to only buy negative African news. Let's keep building the nation and change the view of mother Africa in the eyes of the world. #Bless
God bless you
What energy is being used in these updated areas? I only seen some solar panels.
It really warms my heart to see countries develop. The progress we have made in the last 60 years with foreign aid, new technology, and education is utterly staggering. Yes, there is still a lot of pain in the world but really this is the best time ever and it will only get better from here... if climate change is dealt with.
why international medias is constantly showing the worst side of developing countries like India , Pak , Sri Lanka, or other African Countries and so many other developing countries . our countries are also developing and achieving so many goals, I am an Indian , i don't know about other countries achievements in various fields, why because International Medias do not give Much attention or Importance to many Major Inventions in these countries, My Country India have one of the best Space Organisation in the world, Rated as one of the best Place for investments in Asia , so many corporate world is investing here . If you take World Best Doctors , Scientists, Innovations , Business Peoples , there will be Indians . Most of the Scientists work in NASA, Microsoft, GOOGLE , Amazon are Indians.
Despite all this - Most of the International Channels likes to show only the worst side of the developing countries like us. So the Common people like us believe in what they show. This is how International Medias are Cheating Common People in Different Country, Thus it makes common people unaware of other countries achievements and bright side .
steeson mathew il tell you why cuz it supplys useless people with huge salarys just look up what a charity boss earns. And remember that money was intended for really poor people. Ps this was one city, i saw no farms to feed the people or a river or lake to get sweet water from. 2 very importend things. And some people justly say rural ghana looks way different. Your average villiges are not even close to that. Here in the netherlands even our small villages have flowing water, internet, electricity ect. Well i think you get where im going with this. Altough we probably have one off the best in the netherlands we still think it can always be better. Never be satisfied and always shoot for the moon ;). When you reach the mook aim for mars and so on. But you guys are on the right track keep it up ;).
steeson mathew Thats the idea buddy, politics at its finest but dont fall into their bullshit...the West are not rich folks...they cant feed their own people.
I am from South Africa and just have obtained my passowrd. My first visit should be Accra
King Kunte u are welcome
Then welcome to the heat. You must get a big heart to stay in Ghana. I bet you.
Me too I'm south African Accra here I come I a ZULU and I want to learn more about Ashanti's
i guess he is not coming from heaven
Love to Ghana from Mexico and all of Central America, I love Ghana, amazing country
God bless you for this video... who so ever did it u are great!!! Pls everyone should share it....
look at the shacks around modern buildings. that is ghana
Blown away. Didn't know there were actually buildings in Ghana. Just wow!
Even if it's just a small part (like some people are saying) this is still progress. And this is such a beautiful country with immense potential.
Ghana beautiful indeed , from Ethiopia with love and togetherness
This is like showing the riches of Pyongyang to prove North Korea is great.
Yes, the same as showing Manhattan in New York and not showing the Bronx or the Capital in DC and not showing southeast DC projects, or showing downtown Philadelphia, PA and not showing south Philadelphia.
dude bronx are like way better than whatever African city you're comparing to
Anne Xiety there is no homeless in no city in africa, "great" is not à capitalist standard
E T E R N A L North korea is great. Your mind is just full of maintream media shit.
mgm mgm you're out your fucking mind or totally full of shit. If you can't find them in your cities, what the fuck do you do with them? Hide them from view or liquidate them?
Look we understand Ghana needs improvement but this is about countering the blatant lies by CNN not about promo for Mahama. Constructive criticism is needed for leaders but some of you talk like you want Ghana to remain poor, needing western aid and be seen as hopeless. I have stopped talking and am now investing in GH, some of you practice what you preach then Ghana will move onto the next levels. Good luck Nana Akufo Ago.
Bless you
VERY cool! Definitely a place I'd like to check out...my daughter saw me watching this and the first thing she said was "That's beautiful!"...exactly!
God bless you Gana Country God bless you Greater Mather África, África Unite ! Beautiful Gana. From here Brazil. Gana yes this on my prayers. Save a prayer for África grow up always !
A few isolated shots of some finished buildings still isn't good enough. If they can raise a city out of a desert you Ghana should be a metropolis you've had enough time. This video does not portray a balanced view of Ghana at all
wunademones why dont talk about racism and corporate greed in your country.
what a retarded comment what has corporate greed in whatever country you think i am from got to do wit this video?
wunademones I would expect a rational being to answer with clear and concise reasoning as to why a positive vid should be painted with such a negative thought. Rome was not built in a day. And, who are you to propose key development metric and with this, who determines what should be the highest end. Every country has its own problems. If you quick to point/exaggerate the faults of one just to show how good or superior you are, you end up being a mockery of yourself. To end this, compare modern china to 1950 china. During those times, stupid people like you criticised every major move along their route to becoming a strong nation. So, fuck you and also wherever you come from.
Blah blah blah blah blah the facts still remain! a few isolated shots of a few houses and infrastructure while 95% of the rest of the country is sitting in dusty roads and open sewers is not progress no matter how delusional you are determined to be. Stupid people like you fail to realise that countries like South Korea who started out on the same GDP as Ghana during the Nkrumah era have idustrialised and modernised into a 1st world countries. The UAE have managed to raise elite cities within 25 years and you still have the audacity to spew your blind, senseless patriotic nonesense becuase i am simply pointing out the very harsh reality to which you take offense to. It's like living in a cardboard box on the street and celebrating how buetiful the Iphone is in the corner of your cardboard box that is about to fall apart should the weather determine so.
wunademones I do agree with you concerning the pace with which we are progressing. I do not confirm mediocrity. I believe that our development is past overdue. However, It would be utterly bias not to consider external influences that have impeded development in sub-Saharan Africa. It is with this that, I still stand on this island of hope surrounded by forces who will wish nothing but destruction of the continent. With this said, I also believe that internally, we have our own issues hindering progress. This will take some for us to united to become a true republic. It took years, centuries before eurpean tribes Unite to form nations. The rest is history. The oldest african country is between 60 to 70 years old. So, it will take some time but surely africa will get there.
Rawlings was and still is the man!! One of the handful of real men who led an African nation as the great nation of Ghana.
Salute Ghana 🇬🇭 Africa is proud of you baby!
This is an awesome. Its about time Ghana starts to develop once again !!
Some parts of America looks like Afghanistan
JuliePastry.com Ghana....Yes there are blighted cities and neighborhoods but I don't think anyone is without to the point they dont have access to drinking water, food etc. I will say though, a man I worked with for years who is from Ghana, retired from the State of IL and is heading back there as we speak. He says he can live like a king there now. Good for him if thats what he wants to do.
No I was talking about the US.
Ok my apologies. Didn't read you post well enough.
Woah I didn't know they had all this in Africa I thought everyone was poor. I bet this is like propaganda only showing the good parts and not the bad parts like the do in North Korea
I am happy for u guys! Warmest greeting from somalia
Wow Ghana really developed alot this last years so did Nigeria and West Africa In General, greetings from the country who loved discovering africa, Portugal.
this is beautiful. but I think why people always look at Africa as poor. majority of Africans don't live like this or visit a hospital like this. poor people in Germany will have this quality of life just as a rich person in Ghana. Ghana should work on improving everyone lives rather than try to keep up with the Joneses.
no I think its fine just the way it is. you dont know economics. everything comes from nature. so you should learn what the fuck youre eating before you tell Africa what to do
Renaldo Smith wrong !!
Fuck off with your lies,u think say we no travel before ......some ppl out there are really poor than u can imagine
Poor people in Germany live on the road
Africa needs its own satellite to tell it's own story,there's no way ,aperson from Washington Post or British tribunal would tell our story,they only report poverty,war,malnurished people,but they won't report how there malti billions companies are aiding war,hunger and puverty in our continent,we need to tell our own story how best we could.
yt
Beautiful, but it would be interesting to know who has the major construction contracts!!!
Ghana remains the first most beautiful, democratic and developped country in Africa.
The GDP of Ghana Per Capita per year is 1570$. It's Approximately 131 $ per month. So you trying to say that Ghana is ok?!
Yah cause price of goods are not as inflated as it is in America.
And oh.. majority of the population don't live on credit card, drowning in students loans and auto loans. So yah...
in 1995 I have learned about Accra in Primary 4, that it is the city that has some heavy cross traffics and now i am seeing how it expanded. wish am from Ghana
Wooow what a beautiful place 😍😍😍😍 i would visit it! Greetings from Switzerland
Thanks for this. I am so tired of the sad images of Africa on international news channels.
Yes, we get it. Ghana has major wealth inequality problems.
i hope to be there this summer
me too!
RIGHT on..AFRICA is for AFRICANS..enjoy ya trip brah
AFRICA is for AFRICANS? How would you like it if someone in Europe said EUROPE is for EUROPEANS / WHITES??? This is the same racist BS you fight against.
Емил Ефендулов the phrase afriaca is for africans is meant to wake up our people in diaspora who have forgotten our homeland due to the dispursment of our people through Slavery. We had forgotten our idenity so this phrase lets us know that we have a homeland and a heritage its not meant to be racist
I don't think so..i need more proof...its a phrase y'all reading to far into this phrase..what about Make America Great again wyt about that phrase ?
Hey where kumasi at
???? but nice capturing the cool places though
60 minutes ones featured a segment in Kenya about mobile phone-based payment system. Though the system is used through out the Kenya the country, 60 minutes focussed mostly on showing usage amongst the poor and those in the slums. Had I not been to Kenya I would have had a different image about that beautiful country.
I know someone who went to Ghana, on a project. She said she was surprised to see so many AA living there and striving. The ones she saw has businesses and were living well.
Development refers to the totality of a country, not just a small pocket of a town called Accra. Don't show off Accra in this manner when there are millions of people starving. We should demand from our leaders that what is good for certain parts of Accra - and, by the way, not all of Accra is developed - is certainly good for all the towns and villages in Ghana. How can we be happy if one person is left out, let alone towns and villages?
80% of my family is in Ghana ranging from those living in "villages" to upper middle class inhabitants in Accra. What millions of starving people are you talking about? Holding leaders to account and wanting transformational change is one thing....repeating lies about starving Ghanaians parrot fashion is another thing.
hugh chapman have you been other parts of the world ? even in European countries it's the same
Come on! Everywhere in the world even in the most developed countries[even America] have cities or towns that don't fare as well. Which millions are you referring to? Have you been to Ghana?
hugh chapman You need that there's CNN to show you that.
How did you develop ? please tell! Amazing.
May GOD PAPA be praise Congrat my inlaws Bravo keep it up i am very happy for you 😁😁😁👍👋
It is understandable that the Ex President would like the world to believe this is Ghana & its true these places do exist.The group that posted this clip is called "Ghana at Work" but as the Ex President admitted at his press briefing in January 2016 the Government has no idea how many people are actually unemployed because the Government does not have the ability to provide the statistics.I have not seen the CNN clip so I don,t know what they showed however I noticed there was no views of the poorer parts of Accra like Community 22 in Tema or Ashaiman in this clip.
masa ibi u pe way u go school.go c united state no job for the youth for der.if u no get aban edwuma go find something do n stop this politics.the good things the ex prezo do koraah u guys they talk bulshit.wat e do masa u go fi do am.
Hey man,what contributions are you making in Ghana? Mine are insignificant if you asked me.
I wish you a Happy New Year.I hope & pray that the new President works to make Ghana a better place for all citizens for they deserve nothing less.
Philip Lewis you wont see either 700 or people that was murdered in Chicago this year alone. not will you see in cnn 1000 of homeless roaming the streets of sanfranchisco
Babacar Gueye Your point is that when CNN & other western media organizations report on the US or Europe they don,t tell the full story is that correct ? In regard to this clip put out by the Ex President you think it is OK to show the parts that show Ghana in a good light whilst ignoring the appalling conditions that lots of Ghanaian,s live under.Are you not advocating exactly what you claim western media does in US & Europe ? That is show the good parts & ignore the rest.
Is Accra not part of Ghana ? Have you been to Kumasi ? Have you been to Cape coast and other
parts of the country ? please be wise and stop talking like a fool
I like this. Further helps me make the transition from America to Ghana. Save me a spot people.
Great video! Thanks for sharing!
This video IS NOT representative of Ghana. It just shows a few infrastructures that only make up a very small section of the entire country.
Great to see the beautiful parts of Ghana... CNN doesn't broadcast the filth, broken infrastructure, and poverty in the USA.
migf27 BBC did a cover story on poverty in the US, it was really awful and deplorable the way the US treats them. As the supposedly richest country in the world we spend a pittance on medical, mental health, education, and our ailing infrastructure. We are going backward to the turn of last century very slowly. CNN is a crappy news network as are all MSM news. We had RT but the fascist politicians banned it because it showed the true picture of America.
where is the greater Accra regional hospital 🏥 located? hope it's not the same korle bu.!!!
Happy to see such beautiful pictures from such a beautiful country! Keep going on my black brothers!!
so this is the Pyongyang of ghana??
Exactly
CNN does not portray a good picture of Ghana because China is heavily investing in Ghana's future. And China and the US have tension, so CNN will not want to portray China in a good light.
They showed like 5 cities imbecile
This video is very dishonest... It's not helping anyone, especially the poor people of Ghana
Twat!
DarkNight, you're an idiot
DarkNight That is the mind set of a begger. Ghana is a nice country and must be portrayed so.
They said the same about India. India is rising, how is Ghana any different? What does India or China have that Ghana doesn't? Go beyond the despair and look at the future brother.
people consider india a shithole
Beautiful country, a lesson in reality to CNN indeed. Respect and love from a brother country India.
I love Ghana and Ghanaian people they're so kind much love from Sudan for you guys we admire you ..... Love for our Africa ..... U.A.C ( United African countries ) Sudan , Ethiopia , Nigeria , Tanzania , south Africa , Rwanda , Botswana , Ghana , Kenya , Congo , Uganda , Mali , Somalia , Chad , Angola , Zambia , Zimbabwe , Mozambique , Niger , Namibia , Gabon , Cameron , Senegal , Mauritania , Burkina Faso , Guinea , central Africa , Liberia , Gambia , Togo , Madagascar , Djibouti, Eritrea may God bless you all brothers .
Please stop fooling us and show the real Ghana.
This is the real ghana...Maybe i don't know where you live
sosoliso 124 hahahaha I think you still in the village...travel ok?
steve wonder hero yeah like a only a little the rest is not the same.
Obviously this has to be in the US, cuz the US is the only country with modern cities and power
dumbass
Hahaha you must be joking
Half of these shots look like they're made with 20 year old shit CGI.
And I don't recall anybody arguing that there aren't nice seeming parts of Ghana.
A few shots don't make an argument about a country. If Ghana is such a star, make compelling arguments to support this, not emotional appeals with images of the built up area of your biggest city at night.
v impressive we haapy to see ghana develop that much but no media show this love from pakistan
I hope Ghana and all African countries flourish again like how it used to be,best of luck
Africa very good place, I want african boyfriend they a lot handsome
Let's mingle..I live in Ghana
CNN is less bias coverage than this video 😂😂
are you African?
Fuck CNN
All I know is this is flippin beautiful. Come through Ghana. Yes!!
Wow so beautiful country
#chana
I shall visit one day Insha allh
we wuz kangz
John Doe please stop acting like an uneducated child and try to be more mature, thank you.
CNN must really feel stupid after watching this video.
Babatunde Famutimi You think? Let's face it. The flip side of the coin (open gutters with filth, poor roads, poor agricultural systems, agric produce ~tomatoes and oranges~ going to waste because of lack of processing facilities to process them, unsanitary conditions) is the true reality of Ghana not this aerial view of a few recently renovated buildings. Let's call a spade a spade. We were talking about the Kwame Nkrumah circle being a little Dubai, but just walk a few meters from circle and you will be greeted with the filthy stream that separated the Neoplan station from the Circle station
Are you from Ghana? Are you an American or African? Every African wants to make their country look beautiful. I am a Nigerian and I know my country is not a utopia but I still love my country. I study and live in the United States but I still recognize Nigeria as my motherland. I do not need to think about racial discrimination in Nigeria, nobody calls me a minority in Nigeria, I do not get scared in Nigeria when the police stop me. I can keep on going. If CNN wants news they should go to the streets of America and make a news report on racial abuse, homeless people, inadequate schools and all the remaining nonsense America claims is not their fault.
....and you are telling me you've never heard all those things you are talking about on CNN? Once you know America is not utopia it means you heard or read about the flip side from the media. I don't think where I'm from is relevant to the point I'm trying to send across..Every part of the world have their positives and negatives.. I just feel the problems in Africa out weighs the positives.
Black White great that u recognised that their is negative nd positive problem all over the world ..But at least let's be honest nd call a spade"a spade. CNN never show any bright side of Africa ..its always bad side of it . telling the rest of the world that nothing good comes from Africa but when you look very well..They are the real cause of the problems there either by instigating the opposition or looby the government to loot from their own gain afterwards they will be offered asylum in Europe. until we realised this and take the bull by the horn. .It continues this way.
Black White Please read a book and do your research about Ghana and Africa on Google.
Lovely I'm form SA and looking at moving but only to another African Country.
Keep it up ppl of Ghana! It looks great and I can not wait until I visit your Beauty
Love Frpm Somalia ❤❤❤
Ghana propaganda video vs cnn propaganda video lol just develop the whole country for crying out loud not just certain areas.
MajorrBison This is an animation, those buildings looks really fake
@@ggl2947
Shine ur eyes. It is real search for it online
stop deceiving Ghanaians with all these fake ndc animation videos.
i think the animations should have been exempted, there are real nice places in Ghana that could have been used
Those videos are real what do you mean I am Nigerian and I can tell u it,s video
Sometimes I wonder about the level of stupidity of some so called Ghanaians. You're the kind that will refuse to identify your country of origin and will always refer to it as Africa as if Africa is a country. The kind that will tell people how poor the whole Africa is just to fit in. Kwasia!
+twesam ,infact,u are more stupid than asiedu nketia,i can see u can also wear your wife's coat to meet a delegation if given the chance,cos u are just a damp nitwit thwart,u insult me for saying the truth,fool cant u see its an animation video? twerp get a life.
Please, don’t lie.
ACCRA GHANA LOOK BEAUTIFUL. ONE DAY GHANA WILL BECOME THE CRADLE OF CIVILIZATION. KEEP IT UP. I AM FROM NIGERIA. Africa will get there someday, leaders only need to be more patriotic
Much love from Indonesia, Ghana.
ghana after they stole Nigerian money

Wonderful! That is the sort of thing we need! Really well done!
This Makes me wanna Visit!!!!...yes for sure i will come to Ghana!.....PROGRESS,God Bless Mother Africa!
Thanks for the video. I changed my perception about Africa altogether. Main Stream Media only shows poverty in Africa. :)
