But in Ghana there’s nothing like Attorney except Attorney General who double as Minister of Justice

For simplicity's sake; a lawyer becomes an attorney when they pass the bar.

In the UK it makes more sense. A lawyer is either a solicitor or a barrister. A law degree holder isnt a lawyer

Semantics, most of the world still calls a practicing lawyer a lawyer, literally nobody in my country addresses a practicing lawyer as an attorney.

This is incorrect. The ABA has said the terms are functionally equivalent, and therefore someone who has graduated law school but is not licensed should not refer to themselves as a lawyer.

an attorney is someone who was admitted to the bar.. while a lawyer is someone with just a law degree without taking the bar exams

This is actually a common misconception. Lawyer and attorney are synonymous and you will get in trouble (at least in the us) if you call yourself a lawyer if you don't have a license to practice

Obviously this is rage bait, because this is 100% inaccurate. You cannot call yourself a lawyer unless you have passed the bar exam and calling yourself a lawyer without passing the bar and giving legal advice is the unauthorized practice of law and is illegal!

Yup… the people who use the words interchangeably. Just like jail and prison is not the same.
