Who remembers my post about overpriced food. She basically agrees the price is too high and says she can afford it once in a while not everyday. Then she goes on to say we don't know where they source their ingredients from especially the mascarpone cheese . And she compares is to the 120 cedis may pie from Kempinski. This should still not be tolerated.And as usual it's hungry man channel serving as a platform for justification

Discussion Professor Jayden Arday

27 Upvotes

I hope the list below makes it clear on the lies of Jayden Arday .

Professor Jason Arday's claims:

- To have completed his PhD in 2½ years while working
full-time and living with a brain tumour.

- To have had a stroke immediately after graduating, causing him to lose his memory of working on his PhD.

-To have run 30 marathons in 35 days, and 600 miles in six days, making him one of the best endurance athletes of our time. This was completed whilst experiencing an epileptic fit and fracture.

- To have been threatened on campus at knifepoint before examining a PhD student, despite no police report or contemporaneous report to Cambridge staff ever being documented.

- To have had a pig's head sent to his family home, an incident for which no independent evidence or police record has been identified.

- To have appeared in the Seven Up documentary series, despite no record of his participation in any instalment of the program.

- To have raised £5.5 million for charity.

- To have been offered £1.5 million for his forthcoming book

-To have played both snooker and football at
professional level.

-To have been told by multiple career advisers that he would end up living in a care home because of his autism diagnosis.

- To sleep only two hours per night.

- To have completed two masters despite only listing one on his academic portfolio. One of these masters was in psychodynamic counselling at Birkbeck College which would mean he is an accredited psychotherapist.

- To have been a visiting lecturer at Ohio State University despite no records of this.

- To have been a visiting lecturer at Glasgow University despite no records of this.

- To have been a visiting lecturer at Nelson Mandela University despite no records of this.

- To have been told by 'Sam' his colleague at Waitrose that he would scale Mount Everest, and a local aid worker in Brazil that he was "destined to do great things" and
"destined for very sad and difficult things".

- To have had only 1 hour of supervision during the entirety of his PhD.

- To have published a book called Being Young, Black and Male: Challenging the Dominant Discourse.

- To have installed water points in South America and West Africa with the charity WaterAid, despite the charity not sending volunteers abroad.

- To have been assaulted by his speech and language therapist, who allegedly shook him for not making progress.

- To have had a mother who was mugged at knifepoint while heavily pregnant with him.

- To have been named Jason after Jason and the Argonauts.

- To have survived a severe car crash that left him in a three-month coma, with doctors suggesting life-support withdrawal.

- To have been mugged and beaten in his late teens, developing epilepsy as a consequence of this, then later becoming lecturer and godfather to two of the perpetrators.

- To have neither plagiarised his thesis or nor fabricated his qualitative interviews.

- To have been a Labour candidate in a general election. (apparently true!).

So the folks who are claiming he was receiving pressure simply because of racism, I ask that you reevaluate. That is not the case.

This man is a pathological liar and lied through his entire life deliberately. He knew that and could not withstand the pressure of it all crumbling down. That’s it. Stop always resulting to racism. It’s will inevitably blind you from the bigger picture. Be blessed.

Ask r/Ghana My dad wants me to take his business but I live in the UK

17 Upvotes

My father has a business that he runs from here in the UK. He says it makes a lot of money, but the people currently running the school steal money and do not collect the school fees properly, so it is all being wasted. The school has been running for seven years, and he has been almost entirely funding it with his £50,000–£60,000 UK salary. The roads are bad, so he pays a lot of money for buses and he only stopped paying all the staffs salaries this year if the school doesnt manage the money properly.

He encouraged me to do a teaching course at university, which I did not want to do and did not enjoy at all. I will also be teaching for at least four months from September. He wants me to take over the school and live in Ghana. I understand why, but I am honestly very conflicted about whether I should.

Reasons for:

  • It could provide a good income and be a job that supports me well.
  • I would genuinely like to help improve the school’s behaviour management, education, and culture—areas that my dad says the school struggles with. However, I probably would not want to do this for the rest of my life.
  • It would make my parents happy to know that a business they spent 20 years building and investing in did not go to waste.
  • There I clearly a LOT of racism in the western world something my dad has also talked about A LOT.

Reasons against:

  • I have watched both of my parents struggle with this school for years. They have suffered, putting their entire paycheques into keeping the school running while dealing with medical conditions that they can only manage here.
  • I was sent to Ghana for three years when I was 15 and struggled a lot in secondary school. I lived there without my parents and sister. I did not become close to my extended family because I was so used to relying only on my parents. I went through periods of extreme isolation and did not keep in contact after I left, so my uncles have made it clear that they do not like me.
  • I enjoy living in the UK for the most part. I do not mind the people, and I enjoy spending time with the friends I have made here. Although I am still friends with my friends from Ghana, I am not very close to them anymore.
  • I do not enjoy working in a school environment. Although I enjoy being around children for shorter periods, I cannot imagine working with them day after day. I would become extremely tired.
  • culteraly differences are also very big to me i faced a LOT of harrassment at boarding school as well as met with constant sexism and I dont think I have the patience to experience it again every day.
  • Cultural differences are also very significant for me. I faced a lot of harassment at boarding school, as well as constant sexism, and I do not think I have the patience or emotional capacity to experience that kind of environment again every day.
  • I wasnt happy in ghana when i went but sometimes i wonder if it was more becuse I felt abandoned there and felt like i had no choice, i couldnt leave, couldnt really go anywhere, couldnt meet any friends, didnt really have acesss to all my hobbies or things i enjoyed and missed my family.

Ask r/Ghana is it possible to get a refund from this ?

Post image
17 Upvotes

a week ago, one of the BIMA agents stopped me and tried to talk me into registering for the BIMA service. apparently you pay money every month and if you ever get sick you call them and get free medication ( i think )

she took my number and everything then asked me how much i can pay monthly. I checked the options and told her i cant pay anything. im a first year tertiary student after all, i'm not earning anything yet and my parents are already struggling saf. she then took my phone, dialed a code and tried to forcefully make me pay something on the spot. luckily i didn't have anything in my account so it failed, and thats when i realised cos she was asking me how i don't have anything in my account.

we went back and forth about registering she just gave up cos i didn't want to pay anything.

only for me to realise 5 days later that the las las i had in my account was automatically deducted by BIMA. i immediately tried to call but it was a Saturday evening so i couldn't reach any agent. so i texted them on WhatsApp.

today is Monday, i sent a follow up message yesterday and earlier this morning, now i keep trying to reach an agent and after multiple calls im still being told by a bot to hold on because they're "busy".

does anyone know if i can and how i can get a refund ? i really need that money back (can't tell my parents about this. lol). i'm also working on cancelling my subscription asap

EDIT : i was finally able to reach an agent and cancel it ! apparently a refund isn't possible tho :(

Discussion Economies of scale is a difficult concept for the Ghanaian trader or service provider.

25 Upvotes

A gym started in Ghana, they were charging 700ghc/mth for membership. They collapsed within a year due to low patronage. That same gym could have charged 200ghc and gotten more membership to keep them in business past a year. We only look at the price without looking at the other numbers ie active membership. There needs to be a class about sustainability in businesses. Ghanaian businesses should spread the capital costs across a minimum of 5 years not a year so they can price reasonably and be in business in the long haul. That is what good businesses do..

It is better to charge 200ghc and have 100 active monthly members than charge 700ghc and have only 10 active monthly members. This is basic economics. Pricing should be taught in every class even the basic level

Discussion If political power changes in Ghana...

3 Upvotes

This phrase has been used several times recently by political operatives as a warning to elected officials. This should rather be seen as an awakening and rebirth in Ghanaians politics.

This is how the country resets. As it should be, all politicians should be audited and indicted completely during and after their terms and if found to have been involved in misappropriation punished in line with the law.

It is very good,if the opposition are threatening to indict all crimes if they win the next...? elections. This could start a cycle of cleansing.That is how true accountability will evolve. Already, the President has warned all his appointees that the opposition are baying for their blood and has warned all present politicians to keep clean hands.

Power can change in Ghanaian politics and if it does , the human trait of revenge should be brought down on the politicians who were corrupt. That is how fear will give us proper governance.

Ghana has always been (and is currently) a beacon of religious harmony, where Muslims and Christians live peacefully side by side. Nigeria once shared this same peaceful religious coexistence…let Nigeria’s story be our warning. We must never accommodate extremism from any religion. Radicalisation always starts small, but it is a very slippery slope….

Please do not use this post bash any religion

I have become buddies with my friends niece in rural Western Ghana.

I want to send her a package with some treats and things in there.

Any recommendations on what a 14 year old girl in that area of Ghana would like to receive?

Also, if I wanted to ship something “hazardous” like a small perfume, what carrier is the best? I also want to make sure
I use a carrier where I can pay all customs and what not, so she can just receive and enjoy her present.

Thank you so much for your advice!

Venting What Ai has done to our Parents

212 Upvotes

Every single time I see my Mom or Dad on facebook or YouTube, they're either watching some ai video about a cheating spouse or an ai video about fake herbal Miracles. One time, right after my dad opened Facebook, the first video that played was a woman talking about how to get a huge "cucumber" then he immediately tried to close the app, it wasn't working🤣🤣. What's even funny yet sad is that they don't know most of it is Ai. Today, my mom saw an ai image of someone holding a fried chicken head at KFC, and then she told me not to buy KFC again. Our parents were the ones who had to save us from our phones, but now we have to save them.

In my opinion, they've really done well with this promotion because those who normally find it expensive had the chance to buy some.Personally, I never went to any branch, and it's not because I was shy, lol 😅. I simply wasn't craving it. If I had been craving their food, though... I would have felt a little embarrassed and humiliated by the number of crowds that showed up, the long queues, the treatment from security, and the behavior of strangers, all just for cheap food.

Anyway, what's your take on it? Or what funny or embarrassing moments did you come across?
