The Garden City must be restored to its old glory by planting more trees.
Never heard of this before, trains plying Kumasi , Accra and Tardi?

Dear Ghana Web,
This fellow should be banned from all social media platforms and reported to the police. Encouraging the youth of Ghana to commit suicide is a blatant breach of law. Perhaps if the person calling themselves D ...

You've said it all. It's quite a long time this suicide article has been published in this website. It should be banished. Thanks Mr Tom.
Seraki is a lunatic a wasted sperm and fertilized egg, he should take his life first . idiot he is
Perhaps if we start a campaign to threaten Ghanaweb of a boycott, they will come to their senses and remove such comments.
Give them to your mom and dad. If it’s so bad to live then why is an animal like you still living? Ghanaian youth understand that all days are not equal and that no condition is permanent, hence they won’t take their own ...

This photo is in 1900 and yet the platonic liers will tell Ghanians kwame Nkrumah build everything in Ghana including the roads he Nkrumah used for campaigning in 1952.
@Jido, you are just another idiot without a brain. The British pleaded for years and years with our slave raiding and trading Asante Kings from the 1830s to allow them to bring a bit of modernity and development into Asante, ...

Response from a vagabond
Nsiah the fool! Learn history before you tell history, you don't tell history like what you wish could be done. The first railways line started In Takoradi 1901 and reached Kumasi 1903 beefore getting to Accra in 1923. So who ...

A first train running on such old tracks? How?
About seventy years ago, my parents used to take me on their travels along the Accra to Kumasi track. The railways was then under the control of the British, and even at that ...

Bro,you are right oooo.
I suspect the armed robbers and those with the long journey are behind the vandal8dation of the tail tracks so the road business will boom.
The rail sector needs restoration, its even safer than the ...

*l meant long journey vehicles
My dad and myself took the train many times from Kumasi to Accra , it was very nice and smooth, those were the good old Ghana days
About 95% of Ghanaians born in 90s upwards have never been in a train unless those who've travelled outside the country.... We can't force our leaders to think for us... We've given them too much, we'll continue to suffer saa ...

In the year 1903, we had trains running in Ghana.
This is a sign that our previous leaders did all they can.
For the present leaders to come and mess everything up.
God would Judge them and the unborn generations.
What a silly narrative . There was no Ghana in 1903. This is the reason why some think they own this country .
Ghana was born in 1903 . We all gave up our territories to form one nation Ghana . Those in the picture were Asan ...

Dr kwame Nkrumah never came by flight from America but by ship from the UK to Ghana on Grant invitation. Let count ourselves for Nkrumah leading us for independence no comment. Akyemism very dangerous pills.
