We need to know the manufacturer of this great fridge. My grandfather had a German Bosch fridge it lasted over 50 years without any problems. We stopped using it due to high electricity consumption.

Only poor, up to no good and Riff Raffs insult the Otumfour. If fuel prices went up. Who is responsible for that ? Manhyia.has nothing to do with it. Yes, a 74 year fridge at the manhyia museum is a big deal.

Why?, Infact, it is really affecting our Business and personal life. When ever u call them always stories.
Moreover, the Transformer blow every two month Why?. Very,Very Very Bad.
If possible they should Change the Engineers on site. Technical Know How.

Old antiquities like this fridge can bring in a lot of tourists which can rake in millions of cedis for manhyia!

Again, how many of our MILLENNIALS OR Z generations have seen this kind of FRIDE before and for ASHANTIS to have kept this 70 years old fridge for this generations should be lauded and commended!

Akoa agyimin papa!!

Some of you are DISABLED IN your brains for real

Ghanaian Christians, Ghanaian moslems etc goes to ISRAEL and MECCA to see nothing than ANTIQUITIES similar to the same fridge u here talking crap about!

Do u know how much tourism brings to Israel and Mecca only! Besides most of the ANTIQUITIES in Israel are JUST MAKEUPS and not the real things

Read this KRAMAN BEDE3 bi ba

“ Israel Tourism Income data was reported at 5.955 USD bn in 2023. This records an increase from the previous number of 5.518 USD bn for 2022”

Israel, a very small nation made about 5.518 BILLION dollars in tourism and there’s nothing extraordinary that people going to see a small DEMOLISHED wall built by Solomon!

How about Saudi’s Arabia?

“ According to the latest data from the Saudi Central Bank, tourist spending reached a record high of $39.95 billion in 2023. This showcases a growth rate of 42.8%, as compared to 2022”

Saudis made about 39.95 billions in tourism! People want to go go and touch a STONE!!

Some of u are like animals and I mean this!

Tourism alone can lift Ghana out of our economic doldrums but IDIOTS like u cannot see it because for u BOOK THEORIES is all that u were taught in Ghana and nothing else!!

If u looked at the whole of WEST AFRICA, Ghana have the most TRADITIONAL SITES backed by history but politicians wldnt do anything about it, because we have animals like JULIUS who they see as nothing than our thrash u deserves nothing better lmaooo

Thrash twee3333 ….

Manufacturing isn’t done by one individual! U so DEFECTIVE in thinking

What’s manufacturing?

What is manufacturing?
Manufacturing is any process that takes raw materials or components and converts them into one or more finished goods. This finished good can then be used to meet a need or expectation from consumers.

For example, a company that manufactures cars will first buy raw materials and components. This would include metal, engine parts, electrical wiring, tires and everything that goes into the car. They will then process these components in a manufacturing plant, using a combination of machines and human labor to produce a fully functional car.

There are many types of manufacturing processes, but they all usually involve some combination of human labor and machinery. As technology advances, manufacturing processes become increasingly automated, which decreases the need for human labor and increases the need for specialized machinery.

So u see, manufacturing isn’t one man job so your comment is SENSELESS lmaooo

U sometime hear Ghanaians saying why can’t we manufactured this, manufacture this but most don’t even know how manufacturing processes is done!!

There are some machinery i cannot even manufactured in your own nation because COPYRIGHT LAWS and PATENT laws wldnt allow u access to certain electrical parts and hence there’ll be no way to make those gadgets!

This is what UNIVERSAL PATENT LAW states

“ A patent is a type of intellectual property that gives its owner the legal right to exclude others from making, using, or selling an invention for a limited period of time in exchange for publishing an enabling disclosure of the invention”

So u see, most western nations that holds these patent laws wldnt allow certain gadgets, circuits, ICS etc to be made by them because they want to hold international monopoly over them for profits!

Infact there’s two outlets for this fridge

One for kerosene and the other for electricity

People uses the kerosene to power it because the kerosene is CHEAPER than electricity

Again, electricity wasn’t common in rural areas at thag time and hence kerosene was preferable!

Most people in rural Ghana didn’t have electricity at that time and uses KEROSENE to power this fridge!

Again, it was used for mainly commercial PUTPOSES like selling of SODAS and ice water and most rural people in Ghana had these stuff because of this fridge becasue they powered the fridge with KEROSENE!

Keep quiet and have the spirit of humbleness to learn and that ll make u grow intellectually

U said u saw a PICTURE of the golden stool right according to your comment above right?

U see u don’t even know the difference between a PICTURE AND A PHOTO lol

I ll take this opportunity to educate your dumb DORMAA ass again

What’s the difference between A PICTURE AND A PHOTO?

A PHOTO

“ Photo
A photo, or a photograph, can only be used when it has been produced by using a camera. It is a very restricted term, so you have to be careful when you want to use it”

A PICTURE

We can use this one for a lot of things like a drawing, a painting, a cinema film, a portrait or, a photograph too.

If one refers to a photograph as a picture, the object itself is probably a combination of a photo with text or graphics rendered on it. Picture can be employed in special cases like something produced in your mind; an impression one has of somebody or something described to them; or from your memory.

Another related word is image. This word is a more generalised one. An image can be a visible impression obtained by any device such as a computer, telescope, camera, video screen et cetera. It can also refer to a representation of an external form of a person or thing among other meanings”

So u see the difference bum lol

So your statement should read “ U SAW A PHOTO OF THE GOLDEN STOOL” and not a PICTURE OF THE GOLDEN STOOL!

Is called a PICTURE when a photo have texts on it taken with a CAMERA!

Again, photos are purely subjective as the observer cannot manipulate what they saw or edit what they saw because, the photographer have the ultimate PATENT or intellectual property and distorting it, editing it or copying it or even editing it can result in legal penalties!!

Photos are SUBJECTIVE whiles PICTURES are objective! This means that, u cannot MANIPULATE A PHOTO as an observer but u can MANIPULATE or draw your own IMAGERY OF A PICTURE! U can draw your own impression of a picture and this is what u saw!

U have made your own impressions of what u saw

I hope your dam ass understand this explanation lmaooo

Is therefore understandable that, u said u saw a PICTURE of the golden stool rather than A PHOTO of the golden stool because U MANIPULATED the photo of the GOLDEN stool in your mind according to how u want to see it, interpret it or manipulate it! U are indeed a big bastard lol

U indeed intellectually bankrupt and I ll expose your IQ to the whole world see how fallible TRIBAL BIGOTS are shallow minded lol…

Tribal bigots are nothing than pigs with pea brains!

U see an IMAGE( PICTURE) of the golden stool and your TRIBAL BIGOT MIND interpreted it for how u want to see it, portrayed it and this is a text book definition of how BIASED,SICK and SICKOS minds like yours operate, demagoguery!

I feel sorry for u because u are mentally sick your tribal lenses is making u operate like a RETARD!
