Uneducated citizenry is like a pitch any game can be played on it. Illiteracy is what has given the politicians in Ghana the chance to fool so many people for so a long a time.

Nigerian Feared Dead in China Fall Is Alive, Morning Post Says


By Joost Akkermans

(Bloomberg) — A Nigerian man feared dead after falling from a window in the Chinese city of Guangzhou trying to escape a police visa check is still alive though in critical condition, the South China Morning Post said, citing a doctor.

As many as 200 Africans surrounded a police station in the southern Chinese city on July 15 after two Nigerian men fell from a second-floor window of a building, according to the Morning Post. Both men had overstayed their visas, the Hong Kong-based newspaper said, citing a police statement.

The critically injured man suffered severe head injuries from the fall, the English-language Post reported, citing a doctor at the Guangzhou Military District Main Hospital who declined to be named. The condition of the second man wasn’t clear yesterday, the newspaper said.
