    This is a misfit.

    This is a fine swiss chocolate cake to aponkye.

    A capital city in a country in a 21C world with that level of filth and infrastructure absence and decadence does not deserve such a Mall.

    Go to sleep,kid. Not everybody's negative minded like you. I bet you used to shit at the river bank too when you were in Ghana.

  • JAMES Y 11 years ago

    On occasions in our life hopes are raised high as the result of promises that have been given, only to see the hopes fizzle out because the promises do not come to fruition. Examples are many, but that is not the matter now. ...

  • anokwale 11 years ago

    As usual, there are nice projects here and there but we all know that without consistent electricity and water to the entire country, people will not be in the mood to patronize such a mall. Accra Mall and A&C are nice but ...

    Good one there. But I want to ask if it is being financed by the gov't or its somebody's private business. Whatever it is, hopefully there will be similar one at least in each capital city.

  • AMA 11 years ago

    And then you will know who is financing.

    24 acre land : GHANA went to metric in
    1976 ok so why still using acres?

  • Miranda 11 years ago

    sorry Max, but acres is whats being used when dealing with large size of land as in dis. ou only get the feets in the residential measurements when they tell u 80'x100'

  • Alaa 11 years ago

    No Miranda dear!!!
    Acre is imperial
    Hectare is metric
    1 acre = 0.405 hectares

    1 hectare is 10 000 sqm = 2.47 acres

    Hope this helps

  • BOLD 11 years ago

    This is a well written article that delivers hope to the people of Ghana. I highly commend those brains that came together to design such a futuristic artifact. It will certainly change the way some of us think and live. Hope ...

    JUST DO IT.

  • Sankofa 11 years ago

    This is putting the cart before the horse.

    We must learn to produce, before we start to consume. If the shopping mall sells mainly local products, I am all for it. If it ends selling mainly imported items, then it only pu ...

  • Ben yeboah 11 years ago

    This is a very good project but please the traffic issue around this place should be taken seriously in long term, else it will be a waste of resources

  • THE SEARCHLIGHT 11 years ago

    A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.THE CHALLENGE IS ON.GHANAIANS LIKE CHALLENGES.LOCAL INVESTORS WILL ALSO TAKE CUE FROM WHAT IS HAPPENING.BELIEVE IT OR NOT LOCAL MARKETS WILL NOW BE DESIGNED TO MODERN STANDARDS.

  • Isaac Kusi, Bronx, NY. 11 years ago

    What are we manufacturing in Ghana to sell in this mall? Everything will be imported.

  • Kwasi B. Kontor Duesseldorf, Germany 11 years ago

    Who is happy about it? only foolish people. Poor management in ghana. Wise will be if Water, Electricity, Roads, Schools and Hospitals problems are solved. Moreover I will be happy if at all they will try to build 2nd Interna ...

    Well said but what about constant electricity supply and water?

  • ABRANTIE GYASI 11 years ago

    I think they can manage to buy electric generator plant,with sufficient power, enough for the recint and for the close vecinities around, for their own bussiness when the national power is "off".They could even add to every c ...
