21st century design. Good we can move away from the hen coops we build as residences. Wish our schools, hospitals, market spaces and lorry stations , Bungalows of doctors, nurses , teachers, service personnel can come with proper designs like this

Ko Kaine said:

"So then how can we ask our MPs to settle for less By the way Nyame nipa deserves better. But let’s try to modify the way capital moves upstream and doesn’t go downstream. Let’s support the deprived areas. I believe we can do that as a church. Peace be unto us."

Yakubu Foster said:

"Pastors swimming in opulence,and then they will turn around to tell the poor their reward is in Heaven.It is time Africans wise up to understand that most churches are business entities set up to make money to enrich its leaders-and not about soul- winning.Ordinary church members will struggle to go past the security at these magnificent structures when their little contributions helped set them up.Religious indoctrination is what goes on in our churches. Putting fear in the vulnerable poor so that they will continue to give out money with no corresponding benefits from the church.The poor in the church will continue to wallow in poverty while pastors and their families ride in expensive cars and reside in posh residences in expensive neighborhoods."
