Differences Between Living In Accra Ghana VS Nairobi Kenya

There are so many things I miss about life in Accra Ghana 🇬🇭 Having lived in Ghana for 7 years and Kenya for one year here are some of my reasons for my preference on where to live between the 2 countries.
Let me know your thoughts on this and if you have lived in both countries then share your preference as well.

Ghana should work on its expensive nature /tag. It's not cool. Our rents, school fees etc are sooo expensive it doesn't make sense . We're becoming more cosmopolitan, we want foreigners to come into our space so we should make life affordable for all of us.

[@Iamblakcoffee]

Yeah that should definitely be worked on, it’s too expensive and there are so many options so if it becomes too inconvenient people will leave for somewhere else.

[@williamgamelisenaya793]

Greedy politicians thinking high taxes will generate more revenue.

[@markntiri8251]

@@williamgamelisenaya793 it's a host of issues. Greedy politicians, greedy citizens, EXPENSIVE petrol so that by consequence rent, transportation, food etc are all expensive, EXPENSIVE electricity, high port charges, poor cedi strength against dollar etc etc Life is short. Human beings we're lucky to even live up to 70 years. Small enjoyment that we'd get too our govts would stress us saaa Aden?

@@markntiri8251 what they should do is take a leaf from China's book & take a region & make it a tax haven for 5 years if it works then expand it to the rest of the country. Low taxes attracts investment,look at Panama.

[@Iamblakcoffee]

@@markntiri8251 eeii charley how did I forget the expensive electricity, it’s too much. Everything seems like a luxury. Like you said, life is short and we should enjoy it, not endure it.

About the Opportunities, I think the Place play a major factor depending how developed the Country is and how open minded the People are. You might just get more opportunities in Kenya than Ghana even tho you’re west African and have lots of culture similarities with Ghana. Just my 2cents 🤓

[@Iamblakcoffee]

This makes sense, and like I mentioned the “person” involved also plays a huge role in making sure they get those opportunities regardless of whether they are from the place or not. Your 2 cents is very valid 💜

I really understand where you’re coming from Ghana 🇬🇭 person will respect you when you give the same respect to him/her and the same applies to Nigeria 🇳🇬 too dear I grew up in Nigeria 🇳🇬 Lagos even my sister was born in Lagos so know what am talking about, yes Kenyans 🇰🇪 are cool people.

[@NonStopghana101]

I really like this video. This is the absolute truth. I moved to Ghana and then visited Kenya and now I am really looking to move to Kenya. Not much lights out where in Ghana lights go out almost everyday, internet is weak, and the roads are horrible. For Accra to be such a popular place, the government should be ashamed of the condition of the roads and the disorganization of the city.

[@Iamblakcoffee]

Ghana used to be better until some years back, as a single lady I was struggling to eat even 2 meals a day even though I was working, everything became so expensive and this has caused more ladies to be on the street hence making Accra the hub for “ladies of the night” but nobody wants to admit these things. The light was good hence the reason most Nigerians love it in Ghana but with the recent influx, more people are looking at other options. The government needs to address these issues and provide a solution, we love Ghana but it has become what it is and only those who have experienced both cities (Accra & Nairobi) can tell the difference and the truth of the matter. Thanks for sharing your view on this matter 🫶🏽

[@georgehosea139]

You should see food differences as an opportunity to do business, import the ingredients from Ghana, or Nigeria and open a business to sell the food in Kenya There are few restaurants selling Naija food in Nairobi.

[@litrackenkevin2729]

I know Ghana being West African, would be a good fit for you, since they are also neighbors. With time, you will get used to where your are married now. 😁😁😁. Ignore the negative comments, humans. Also the sound was a bit inaudible. Good job

[@Iamblakcoffee]

I’m already adjusting to this life of being a Kenyan 😂 as for those negative people and their comments, they will be alright las las. They are so ignored

[@franciskodua1783]

Ghanaian men are not stingy as you say. You Nigerians all the time say this alot and this b'cos 90% of your men illegitimate work, they don't sweat to gain so they will misuse them roughly and end up being killed or kidnapped for blood money. Ghanaian men at the otherhand workhard to gain and will not misuse his money roughly. Ghanaian men spend on the woman or girl they love and also on their love. If u he is not spending much, it means he doesn't love u that much. A Ghanaian man will not waste is money on a Nigerian women because there us a certain perception we have about you, unless in has plans of marrying that Nigerian girl if not he will spend u but not as much as your men who do not get their money legally would do.

[@MrMatujames]

In short, Ghanaian men are not simps, which I very much respect.

[@thomasyebei8540]

Ghana is such a n expensive place....as a visitor, i couldn't believe that prices for most of the things were almost double what's in Kenya. For Ghana to attract tourist it really need to make destination attractive in terms of cost of accommodation, food, transport, medical etc. Otherwise it remain a very expensive destination like Angola.

[@williamako4786]

If Ghana was cheaper it would be over-run with people. You can live cheaply if you know where to shop and not try to keep up with the Joneses.

[@majamaja8136]

I am Kenyan, lived with Ghanaians, Nigerians , Camerons and for me , nigerian food is the best in west Africa.

[@MrMatujames]

Not for me! I had severe stomach upset eating Nigerian food one time and vowed never again. I'd much prefer Francophone West African food especially Ivory Coast and Senegal.

[@majamaja8136]

@MrMatujames sorry, eaten Gambian, Senegal and guinea food but Nigeria still wins even though too much oil is used

Nigerian food is the best in Africa but Nigerians should also learn to respect other people's food. A Nigerian would go to Kenyan restaurant to ask for Jollof rice, fufu, okra or snail.

[@Iamblakcoffee]

My sister work on your headlines they're contracting, its read "Reason i prefer Kenya to Ghana", but after watching your video it was comparing living in Kenya and Ghana, your headline should read something like, "The difference between living in Kenya and Ghana"

[@Iamblakcoffee]

That’s indeed a great headline, thanks for the suggestion brother 😍

[@NileGoddess]

I love my Kenya then Nigeria .Ghana is too undeveloped for me and making money in Ghana is not easy .The money flow I’m Nairobi is like Lagos buy Lagos is on a greater scale.There is a lot of money in Lagos.Nigerians are also chill and don’t hate other Africans coming to their country.

[@Iamblakcoffee]

There is money in Lagos oh, never mind the complainers. Except you’re lazy that’s when you won’t make money in Lagos, you must make money 😂 Making money in Ghana is truly not easy because people are naturally unwilling to spend their money so how do you make the money bo one wants to spend? 🤣 I had to find ways to make money online and most of my clients were in Nigeria and UK, the Ghanaians I met on a few occasion wanted quality service in exchange for peanut (small fee) so I let them be.

[@lifehacks1019]

With your rich first hand experiences of Nigeria, Ghana and Kenya, you're best placed for fair comparisons as these 👌. Culture shocks and clashes can easily be overcome with time by blending and adjusting. As for the critics of your views forgetting that you've also got a hint of Uganda/Rwanda experiences,you better tell them "Been there done that" and that you speak with deep insights as opposed to media highlights and general stereotypes.

[@Iamblakcoffee]

😂 they don’t know, after 7 years in a place and over 1 year in others, I know every well what I’m talking about. But the critics will still talk, it’s not easy to hear the truth sometimes so I understand. Thanks man 💜

[@Dixonmcdixon]

Madam. Kenya has one of the most variety of food in the world if not Africa. If you are looking for food with a lot of palm oil and Pepe and soup then the rest of the world outside West Africa is not for you. Follow the couple names Dave Nami they are from Canada but currently live and travel around kenya and you would be surprised the variety they have in kenya!from Italian, to Ethiopian, Nigerian, Spanish, Indian, American, English, Arabic etc etc. just be ready to spend and eat

[@Iamblakcoffee]

Kenya has variety of food? No bro, visit West Africa, and food is not pepper and palm oil those are just ingredients, so this is not a matter of pepper.

Madame, thr fact that u were unable to have relationship doesn't mean there aren't legit relationships in Ghana. Are u talking of your Nigerian men in Ghana that u could get or you referring to the Ghanaian men? If its with Ghana men than I will say its not their fault that they offer money for sex because of the activities your Nigerian girls or women are doing in Ghana. They are mainly in hookups and prostitution so the Ghanaian meets you he thinks you are also involved in such so they have offer money,get the thing and go

[@Iamblakcoffee]

I’m not talking about Nigerian men I’m actually talking about Ghana men, stingy and unserious lots.
