Vee.
you accent is polished, I doubt you’re Nigerian 🤣🤣 you really sound Ghanaian.
She schooled in Ghana that's why
@@kofisam4106 she eat less gari- eba
The deduction on your MTN charge is call communication tax
I'm 54 now,the last time I saw a power generator whilst in gh.was in 1985...
When we see our flag 🇬🇭 on RUclips we'll wait and watch the reason.....
😁 I can imagine.
Yeah is true, we will watch
True
True talk
True ❤🎉
Sad thing is u don’t hear Ghanaian music everywhere in Nigeria
That's very ver sad part so if Ghanaians are complaining about Nigeria songs should be only 10% play in Ghana... and it's fair enough
We Ghanaians are naturally friendly and kind people
True
You will feel like a real African, kings and Queens,as soon as you enter GH 🇬🇭.We love and cherish everyone.
Stay blessed queen.much love from Germany 🇩🇪
Yeah!! Thank you so much. ♥️♥️♥️
That's Ghana 🇬🇭 we love and care to forget ourselves
One thing I noticed that made me subscribe and kept watching your Ghana videos was that you don’t say most of the things others say which makes it similar but you say different things which I have never heard from any RUclipsr who does such videos… well done
This means so much. Thank you so much for watching, & subscribing. ♥️♥️♥️
Nigeria🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬 is a blessed Country!!! Proudly Nigerian, We are a Welcoming people and LoVE Our African & African Diaspora family!!!!!
Yes, we really do. ♥️
Irony
@@habibmalwan5421 Irony to whom??? Seems more like you’re a Ha+er to me..
I’m a Ghanaian living in Ghana and the recharge card bit shocks me too lol.
If you bought MTN, thing is MTN DOES NOT sell recharge cards. They rather do transfers where the vendor will send you the airtime electronically and I think you get 1% less the amount you bought.
If you want the full amount, you’d have to add that 1% amount to it OR you can just buy from Mobile Money account where you get how much you actually buy and then 100% bonus. The whole idea is to encourage customers to use the Mobile Money service.
The other telcos all have actual recharge cards where you get what you actually buy.
the 1% is service charge
Now I want to travel to Ghana. Thank you for sharing ❤️
Please oo don't come stay where you are
Ghanaians usually like to eat together.
Hence the large bowls and plates
That’s beautiful then. It’s good to know there’s a reason behind the usage of large bowls for food.
In that case, in a situation where one is eating alone, does this change? Because a single serving of food I got was massive. 😁
@@TheVeraFrank lol, same old same
We like food, we just like food🤣🤣🤣
@@nicholasacquah4707 atleast someone I honest 🤣🤣
There's one thing that makes Nigeria different from other Africa countries.
Nigerians don't learn from other countries and they are not ready to learn any time soon. Majorities thought Nigeria is the whole Africa. That's why they can deceiving their brothers and sisters to other Africa countries and tell them it's Europe.
I love my homeland Ghana 🇬🇭
It’s a beautiful country. ♥️♥️
Truly, Ghanaians are friendly and nice. I'm in Accra, Ghana.
Yes, they are. ❤️❤️
Sincerely speaking I haven’t seen a generator for about 6 years now 😎😎🤔🤔
Cool!!
😂 you've been duped by the airtime seller. It's not normal.
Since I left Nigeria to Ghana, I only saw generators in banks, filling station and super markets.
Stady light around the whole country especially in the northern part, it's awesome.
Your accent is so Ghanaian. In fact you look so Ghanaian. Tell your husband you want to settle there. Actually Nigerian music is very close to that of Ghana. Highlife music from Eastern Nigeria are almost identical.Rex Jim lawson in particular. Remember, Fêla Ransome Kuti came to study Afro music in Ghana during the 70s. Nigerians have the impression that Ghana is very small so distances are close but it is not the case. Yes, Accra is very hot but if you went to Aburi and the eastern région, it is quite cool. Ghanaians love thier country and colors, almost and obsession. Lots of hôtels in Accra are quoted in $ but is not the same in other parts in Ghana
Thanks so much for your feedback, it means a lot. ♥️♥️ I think this is my cue to find some Ghanaian highlife music and listen to them.
On moving to Ghana, 😁😁 I actually gave it a deep thought at some point. 😁
About the colors, I agree 💯💯
I actually did visit Aburi & also went to Boti Falls. Now that I think of it, it was quite breezy. All the times I experienced the scorching sun was in Accra.
And the hotels, maybe when next I’m in Ghana, I’ll stay in some other axis/region, so I can also compare the cost.
Thanks for watching once again. ♥️♥️♥️
@@TheVeraFrank ruclips.net/video/FHEJcC2z-qY/видео.html . A typical Ghanaian highlife music for you
Ghana music is not close to Nigerian music at all.abeg stop lying plus her accent doesn't Ghanaian at all her accent is so Nigeria.
@@joyuyoke4999 what's the difference?...Why can't you learn
@@peekay6308 Nigerian accent and music is way different from Ghanaians. US Nigerians are way different from Ghanaians
You are right ghana is peaceful I'm a Nigerian in our house when the electricity had problem we rush to go buy generator only for us to buy on our way back d power was back now our generator is just standing in d engine room for years now
Tnx 4 exploiying our dear country and we welcome the good Nigerians
I don't really remember the last time i saw a generator here in Ghana

You have brought my thoughts on Generators, I dont remember the last time I head or see a generator
Right? That’s really nice. The noise pollution from generators is not cool at all.
Ghana 🇬🇭 is great to have you
Thank you so much
We do have generators in case of maintenance from the electricity company of Ghana
Twi as twe got me laughing as a Ghanaian 🤣🤣😃... You got a new subscriber here in 🇬🇭
😂😂😂 I can Imagine. Thanks so much for subscribing. ❤️❤️
People everywhere make stereotypes, it’s inevitable. I just try to treat individuals as individuals even if I have a stereotype, and to let my stereotypes evolve and be flexible.
I have a bunch of friends in Nigeria and I listen to some music from Ghana (Ghana has good music too!), I see some overlapping culture (some pidgin words,jollof) but obviously really different too so thanks for sharing the perspective of one from the other. I hope I can visit in 2023-2024
True about the stereotypes. It is so wrong, but, looks like it has come to stay.
I’m glad I could share my experiences from my perspective. Thanks so much for watching.
And yeah, visiting is a great idea. I hope you can. ♥️♥️♥️
Ghanaian accent is infectious.
It really is. 😁
I love this
As for the soup 🍜 hummm
😁😁 I can imagine.
Agbo Yaw, the soup situation is something else
You said it all
I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT PART. I REALLY LOVE THIS VIDEO CLIP. THANKS MY SISTER.
I’m glad you loved it. Thanks so much for watching. ♥️♥️
In Ghana a generator set are for BACKUP when there's intermittent power supply. So people have it in their homes and at shops but not so popular..
Oh! All right. That’s great to know.
Ghana is on the equator, reason for how hot the sun was!
Yes,the sun is something else🤣🤣
Actually about the recharge card you didn't buy a recharge card but you did a credit transfer and with that the vendor get 10% hence the reduction from 20ghc to 18ghc from the amount you perchance and you get 100% bonus on it to call other mtn users and it peculiar to mtn users
Hi Vera you look great keep it up
Thank you, thank you! 😁😁
Ghanaians loves u
I love Ghanaians too! ♥️♥️ Thank you so much. 😁
@@TheVeraFrank ur always welcome home
Am new here..you've mentioned true facts and the videos and pictures do help...are a Ghanaian....you know the names of the towns very well...
I’m glad you think so. 😁 I’m actually a Nigerian. I did my research before visiting Ghana, & while in Ghana, I also tried listening to the way Ghanaians pronounced them. 😁
First time viewer. Thanks for you video observation. Surprised you didn't know the time difference. The Greenwich Meridian passes through Ghana and Nigeria is to the east of the Meridian, one time zone away, hence the difference. Well, now you know.
The soup bowl. You realize our soups are lighter/watery whereas Nigerian soups are heavier/thicker. Ever had ogbono soup? You don't need much to conquer a big eba. A little goes a long way.
Big soup bowls? Never mind, big bowls do not consume food.
As for your guide who painted a horrifying picture of the folks at James Town, sorry a fool was designated to be your tour guide. Such people need not be offered that job. Of course he is from a certain tribe who harbour animosity towards every other tribe. I am happy you saw what he is!
Music is universal and if it is good, we will listen to it. In the 80's Ghanaian music was a craze in Nigeria. Ever heard of Kofi Sammy?. Too young to know, way too young, Vera!
Talk of distance. Nigeria is more than three times the size of Ghana. Go from Lagos to Yankari game reserve and see how far you have to go. On a trip there in the 80's, I asked several times, "are we there yet? And our roads are not as good as Nigerian roads, making trips appear longer.
Accent. I have met people from all over the world, socially and professionally .They all carry their unique accents. Listen to an Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa speak English. It is as if they are from different parts of the continent. Read this; in the United States, there is a distinct accent between individual states. Listen to speeches by American presidents, they all have their nice accents.
Anyway, nice listening to your take on our differences that unite us.
Hahaha...that American accent of a thing really shocks me atimes,like how do they do it on till I learned how big and far American states are then I knew better,,,,.. a topical brokylen accent is different from that of Chicago and that of Atlanta...but I think Texas has the pure American English...I love American
Pls vlog about osu and the night life of it....thanks...I just subscribed...........wow you visited Osu...
Great content well done
Thank you so much. ♥️♥️
Ur welcome dear
Thank you, thank you! ♥️♥️♥️
Our lights in the villages are very powerful than the cities 🏙
That’s good to know.
@@TheVeraFrank About 90% of our villages re enjoying light 💡 24/7
That’s really awesome. Stable power is a huge blessing. ♥️♥️
@@TheVeraFrank oh yeah ur right
@@TheVeraFrank The generator noise in Nigeria 🇳🇬 is insane oo hmmm
Coconut is part of our culture beautiful vera...
Very good vlog
Thank you!! ♥️
The deduction from the recharge cards is from electronic levies or e-tax...
I just like all your points on minor things , you did very well and sound like Ghanaian.
Thank you so much. I’m glad you like them. ♥️♥️♥️
Dear for the sun is really in Accra, but when you visit Eastern, Ashanti, and other places you will not see it like it is in Accra, especially in Kwahu and akwapem is very very cold there,
Yeah, someone mentioned this. That’s really unique & awesome. I stayed in Accra mostly & I now understand why the heat was the way it was. Thanks so much for explaining. ♥️
We use generators tho but in business areas and industrial area they use electricity plants and generators that do not produce sound in order not to disturb workers.....
Subscribing from Camp Wode Maya Ghana
We pretend not to be but we are very patriotic people. U can also research about Ghanaian music that reference gh/Ghana and u will find an unusually large number.
Yeah, I can see that. ♥️♥️
For the airtime the sellers deduct the 10% as their profit since the network service don't pay majority of them and even when they do its way lesser
But you are very lovely and sweet my daughter,,you have a beautiful soul..All the best...
Generators are in Ghana but mostly in the big manufacturing companies and big men's houses for backups
That's alot for the T-shirt y, bravo
Yes ghanaians love their flag too much
Yeah, I noticed. 😁🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭
The recharge card part shocked me because that was not how it used to be. You buy 20.00, u get 20.00 credit.
Love ur background
Thank you so much. ❤️❤️❤️
I love watching your videos. Your English sounds so nice. Take care.
Thank you so much. I’m glad you enjoy watching them. 😁😁😁 ♥️♥️♥️♥️
When there is an outage in Ghana they will tell the people living in the area by announcing it on the radio. They usually shut down during the day for a few hours to service or upgrade the substations. For example they are always expanding power capacity due to population growth so they may shut down to upgrade or extend to the next district or town or improve output.
That's awesome.
The mtn recharge charge was correct because you did it by a vendor. Some or almost all providers have stopped selling recharge cards. Almost everyone has mobile money on their phone so you buy your phone credit using your momo ( mobile money).
If you however buy the credit from any of the mtn or the provider's office then you don't pay for any surcharges.
Oh! Now, I understand. Thanks so much for clarifying. ❤️❤️❤️
Big companies used generators at times. But households is like 2% yeah.
Personally since I was born that's 25years ago we never had generator at home. It's only a hand full that have generator
It’s the small vendors who practice something like stealing some small amount which is illegal but good vendors will give you exact money
Ghana is generally warmer than Nigeria, and we buy and drink coconuts by the roadside. Also a number hotels, some international schools and real estates charge in dollars.
It is against the laws of Ghana for hotels to quote their room rates etc in US Dollars. The Bank of Ghana always tell hotels to only quote in Ghana Cedis or face the laws.
This makes so much sense. I wonder why they still break the law though.
@@TheVeraFrank Because they make so much money.
They're allowed to quote in dollars but take payment in cedi equivalent.
I've been there,l was raised I was traveled there ,went to school there and visited all over as well!!
That’s really awesome. ♥️♥️
@@TheVeraFrank very good 👍
@@TheVeraFrank Thx
My proud hometown WLI WATERFALLS
That’s awesome! I’d really love to visit next time.
I knewn't knew. Knewn't you?😂
With the airtime billing, you could have simply bought it with your phone using short codes (you get exactly what you requested). However, when you buy the airtime from vendors, they deduct their commission for the service they rendered to you. Physical MTN recharge cards are not available in recent years, so on the phone or via a MOMO vendor is plausible.
Electricity is 24/7
Yeah there are faults sometimes but not without been informed of when it will go off n come back
Honestly, that’s a really beautiful thing. ♥️
Nice Tshirt and beautiful accent
Thank you so much. 😁♥️♥️
I’m sure you got EVD(Electronic Voucher Distribution) which is what the vendors sell to you because MTN has stopped the sale of recharge cards. That GhC 2 is the 10% profit that the vendor gets for reselling the airtime for MTN. If you had a mobile money account and bought the airtime electronically by yourself, you would’ve received the whole amount you paid for. So those telling you you were scammed/cheated are wrong. It’s just how the business is.
Lovely video by the way ❤
You should always be in this shirt. It fits you so well.
Hello dear, you're great
Thank you! 😁
@@TheVeraFrank you accent is polished, I doubt you’re Nigerian 🤣🤣 you really sound Ghanaian.
With the recharge an sure you did transfer, with that, yes you could get less of the amount you paid unless you buy the scratch card and scratch and enter the digits your self.
Oh! I get it now. Thank you
I like the t shirt 🇬🇭
Thank you so much. 😁♥️♥️♥️
It depends on which restaurant
Nice video lady
Thank you so much, & thanks for watching. ♥️
What nigerians call soup is actually stew.soup is supposed to be watery just like the English word soup. Stew is thicker.james town is a very welcoming town you could even taste fried crispy fish for free
You now tell Nigerians what to name their food ?
@@Damian-rt3rt soup is lighter and watery while stew is thick. Facts.
@@mercedeshaizel1143 but it’s not fact in Nigeria. In Nigeria soup is accompanied by swallow and stew is tomato sauce
I jealous your t shirt 👕
Lol. Okay, okay. Thank you 😁😁😁.
Next time come to Tamale in the Northern region of Ghana... you will understand that the distance between Ghana and the Sun is just $1... 😄😄😄😄
😂😂😂😂 Wow!
How’s the temperature in tamale and Accra different?
@@emmanuelsugru9415 if we tell you, you wouldn't understand unless you feel it.
@@emmanuelsugru9415 just come around especially at this time.... 😁😁😁
The hotels in Ghana are mostly used by foreigners. So most hotels prefer using International currency to charge their customers.
USA with their currency Dollar has been big ingluence in Ghana
Wli waterfalls is my hometown is located
You did well on d accent
Thank you! 😁
I school in ghana, and everything you said is on point 😂😂… I expected to hear Ghanaian music in ghana but surprisingly Nigerian music is played a lot at different spots
Right? 😁😁😁 It was a really interesting experience o.
Ghana is not authentic about itself.How can a nation Nigerian music all the time at the expense of Ghana and Western Music.
In Nigeria most radio Stations play first Naija music before other types of music are exposed,
Like in France there is a law that only about 60 percent the music must be the French Language.
@@jamesbedukodjograham5508 Nigerian music is just dope.You don’t have any option but to play it.
@@chijiokeuzoma8989 Dope yet In Japan I doubt they play Naija music from 7 am to 9pm there.
Western music Is dope not Naija music in other lands.
Yh, the airtime x because the 2 cedis x for the person
I really love ur T-shirt
Thank you so much. It’s one of the beautiful souvenirs I purchased in Ghana. 😁
@@TheVeraFrank I ll buy one ☝️ when I go to Ghana 🇬🇭
That’ll be awesome. 😁
Vera,,we Ghanians are very traditional and the soup bowls are our traditional bowls,,dont ask why,,just eat,,relax and enjoy yourself ad you are in Ghana.
Right? 😁 It was beautiful experiencing a new culture. I sure did enjoy myself. ❤❤
