  The world is realizing the untapped brain power of young ppl available to African and the gold and diamond that make them money keep us poor. They're not leaving any thing to chance as their creative power is coming to screeching halt and the Asians are giving them a run for their money, desperation is hitting a fever pitch.
  
  Only African leaders have no hope in the brain power of our youths by giving them outdated education that made them look for a job instead of creating.
  The white man takes them and trains them to create for them and give them snow white ladies to marry and they forget all about Ghana.

  Really? I do understand the need to change some stuffs in uni education but this route is no answer to the problem faced by prospective uni students. UK unis are not coming to town to tap Ghanaian brain power. No, nothing like that. They are in town to rob the country of education revenues. Ghanaian Unis should therefore step up their trade to stop this from happening.

  The world is realizing the untapped brain power of young ppl available to Africa just as the gold ,the diamond and other strategic minerals that make the white man rich and kept us poor. They're leaving nothing to chance as their creative power is coming to a screeching halt, and the Asians are giving them a run for their money, desperation is hitting a fever pitch. The white man is just doing what he does best, to parasite on the black man and goes around and claim he is the best and not the black man.

  You can invest the huge and expensive tuition fees in Ghana because it would be painful not to find a job after paying so much money to attend these UK universities. Been there done that.

White Man knows that that mentality is barbaric and backward and that every student is entitled to higher edu. They know that our can't plan our educational systems well.

  Is all about brain drain. As an old student of London Met I had the opportunity to talk to the head of the recruiting agent in both London and Kumasi.Initially the gentleman was open until I ask for fund to establish at training center in Kumasi, so as to stop sending our students away for the same program. This is about ten to fifteen years ago. The sad part is, when the Danish government gave Ghana Ten million dollar to improve our technical schools,the money got into wrong hands.

  I know a medical centre that has a ukraine-trained ghanaian doctor who is very very good and and is among the best doctors in his region. He has saved a lot of lives and has never recorded death through the operations operations he has performed so far. But at this medical centre the bragging ghanaian-trained doctors never accept posting to this hospital except when they go there for locum. One day one of these bragging ghanaian-trained doctors came there to do locum but the resident doctor handed the hospital to this locum doctor and travelled for a meeting. He came back a week later only to realize that all the three surgical operations this doctor performed ended in death. But this locum doctor entered the "best" medical school in Ghana with the so-called 8 A's. You see white man knows that things like this happen in africa so they said no let's make our universities accessible to these people so that those who who have passion to work for the less privileged in their countries can have higher education in order to help develop their countries and not just 8 A's on a paper. Remember that 8 A's is not the ability to work passionately but unfortunately this has become phenomenal in africa.
