To those asking about sidewalks, Osu is an old province of Accra and most of these streets were done a long time ago, yes some structures along the sidewalk can be cleared to make way for walks but then the narrow roads will still hinder certain places, and YES the name can be changed but then its become so common that the locals don't really mind.

Oxford Street became popular because of the night market - street vendors selling food for those enjoying the city at night. Some stores have been added and major businesses are moving there but it is just a night market. Now, a lot of nightclubs and restaurants are within the vicinity but not on Oxford Street.

One thing that i have seen is that whilst there is new buildings coming up with modern glass facades, there has not been investments on that road to accomodate these new buildings. A 10 storey building will obviously attract tenants that do business with a lot of clients. The tenants will need parking, their clients will also need parking, so for me that street is way too narrow and does not have enough parking bays to match how the kind of traffic it attracts. And once you have 5 buildings for instances that are 5 storeys or more in that street, you will get congestion. I hope in future, the city will relocate those vending stores/tents/tuckshops and some of the older buildings on the other side of the road and then expand the road to accomodate 1. Side walks for pedestrians 2. parking bays 3. filter lanes for traffic turning to the left (to avoid disrupting flow of traffic going straight ahead). Serious sacrifices must made and some building must be let go. Accra has such a big reputation which must be matched by world class city layout (order, organization). Another thing to consider aswell, is the size of the buildings on the streets, the nature of businesses to operate there. From the description of the street, this is like the WALL STREET of Accra, the financial district of the city. Not every kind of business an operate in that street. Serious zoning by laws must put in place and enforced.

Africa has the benefit of being able to do brand new projects "the correct way" because we are not as heavily burdened with old, expensive infrastructure from centuries past (like European cities), we have the benefit of implementing new trends NOW. Look at Dubai, everything they have done is NEW, TRENDY because they are coming from a point not having anything (ZERO point to nearly ZERO), same as us hear in Africa. Lets use those cities as Case studies and do "Future proof cities" that are designed with projected growths of 50 years into the future. I have noticed we do the NOW in a lot of our projects

Just because you've seen 3-5 streets with flower or generic names doesn't mean that all the streets are like that. It's like me seeing a video of a slum in a city and thinking all parts of a country look like that. At some point, we have to start using common sense when we consume images in the media. There are streets named after Patrice Lumumba, Amilcar Cabral, former President Mills, etc and FYI the busiest streets in a city vary from decade to decade. Back in the day, the street named after Kwame Nkrumah was the largest and busiest because that was the city centre. The city centre has shifted three times since the 60s so Kwame Nkrumah Avenue is no longer the busiest street. The city authorities are not going to rename streets every decade to match business activity on a street

I understand we all always want to defend our countries. Nigerians should understand that Ghana/ Nigeria would push each other vis versa because in the West they’re the best(and Anglophone) it’s not like East Africa where you have over 4 speaking English. So, Ghana can only reach its potential if she works with Nigeria because it doesn’t matter how we sugarcoat it, in East Africa Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania is still more developed than Ghana in fact small Rwanda is flexing muscles as well. I personally complained about the small roads and sidewalks, Lagos is like that for the most part but understand we don’t consider Lagos a role model in terms of structure, only A go, Ego(money)😀

[@romanaabo3664]

In all these countries the division of wealth is the issue. A small but extremely rich upper class, relatively small middle class and large % living in poverty, where middle class is ideally the largest group. Health care accessibility for all is what makes a country truly developed.

Hi African Tigress, I understand that you're trying to show different sides of the city and I respect that but western media houses have already done a good job showing the ugly side of Africa. For a very long time, Africans have not been able to sell ourselves to the world because we have no media giants but KZbin now gives us the unique opportunity to showcase the positive sides that western media never showed and I think we should take it. We need to be deliberate and aggressive about pushing positive stories if we're going to undo all those years of negative press. Peace ✌🏾and all the best in your endeavours.

[@AFRICANTIGRESS]

I actually do balanced content. It's very tasking to go filming in some places that people might want me to film. For example, the exclusive neighborhoods, you must have connections there to even go through. The top resorts , they might not allow filming, unless I'm really staying there! This Oxford street is listed as a top place to visit in Accra Ghana. Surely there's nothing wrong walking through the streets filming. The beauty of a country lies in it's people. Maybe in future with enough funds I'll be able to get a cinematic videographer and editor for better angles.

@@mikea.6911 Thank you Mike. I think I shouldn't have flown from Nigeria to Ghana coz these two Nations have been fighting online for a while now. However on the ground they are actually friends. They don't even share borders both are surrounded by French speaking countries. So this might have just started as banter between these two nations online coz they can't easily argue or have banter with the French speakers. There's two French speaking countries between Nigeria and Ghana. Even the street interviews I did some would say they don't like Nigerians but at that point they were playing with their Nigerian friends.
