Nice photos.

Ghana and Accra are really the best examples how Africa should develop and one from which such countries as Nigeria or the Ivory Coast could only learn. A diversified economy, one of the safest and political stable countries in all of Africa and a well-developed infrastructure.

I would take out Nigeria here beacause it is not comparable to Ghana. (Nigeria more than 140 million!!!! and 20 million for Ghana, no this won´t work).
As for Ivory Coast: I would agree with what you said in terms of political stability but don´t forget that Ghana was among the most unstable countries in Africa during the 70´s and 80´s whereas Ivory Coast (its neigbour) was in FULL BLOOM. And despite Ivory Coast´s political crisis the country´s (Abidjan) infrastructure is still much better than that of Ghana (Acrra). In Abidjan there are no power cuts and its Abidjan´s ports is still the second best in entire Sub-Saharan Africa.

Nice pics especially the 2nd page.

Yeah, it looks lovely. I'm also pleased to discover that there's a kind of food or food ingredient named "shito".

.

Thanks for sharing! I like them:)

The "London" bus is actually from Hong Kong, although it was made in Britain. As it happens, some Hong Kong buses of the same type have found there way back to the UK and are used for open-top tours in London.

Thanks for the pics. Back in grad school I had a friend from Ghana, and looked for Accra pics on Google to see what it was like...but got few results that way.

what a pleasant surprise, especially the intl airport! thanks much!
but that shito flavoring on the ad, that is funny lol

Look much better than Lagos

cool pics :)

Thanks to all for leaving a comment!
