We aren't shy to tell our bad sides

That make sense..the more I have dug into nigeria affairs..the more it's apparent there is nothing in there to tax. Okay let's pray for another oil price rally? Maybe the barrel will hit 200usd!

Officially the dutch disease should be renamed the Nigeria disease..although OIL CURSE is good enough explanation.

It is interesting to see how natural resource can completely destroy a country.

rvp2017 I cannot see you do not know much about Nigeria. How can you tell the government to collect taxes when there is nothing in the country to tax. Are you now going to collect tax from the 85 million people in extreme poverty or from the 140 million in poverty. If you go to a refugee camp and see the people are dying of hunger can you now tell them to pay taxes.

rvp2017:
You were never the leader - you attempted to lie to yourself - nobody - least of all nigeria believe it - and they are voting with their feet everyday out of nigeria - making dangerous boat journey to europe.

South Africa and Kenya will lead Africa. That you can rest assured of. Already we are top 30 globally in DOING GOOD.

Doing which good? stop deceiving yourself my friend.

Who is "we". Speak for yourself. You're defending Nigeria against all logic and reasons.

why cant you just keep quiet...their is nothing to prove between blacks....

was kenya not conquered too and colonized....??

you kenyans argue in strange ways.....

what the fvck is wrong with una in eastern africa....?

Nobody is defending Nigeria, we are only saying Kenya is not at Nigeria's level yet, maybe you'll get there with the help of the lndians and whites who dominate your business space, and with your potential via tourism but at the moment Kenya is still too small.

Oga - I know you can do better - Kenyan banks have been growing for 20 plus yrs - and I think in 2015 - KCB made it's debut in 1000 banks of the global - then Equity & Co-op - now KCB is just knocking at door of ACCESS, GTBANK and FIRSTBANK. Regionally - East Africa - Kenya banks dominate the top 10. There is no TZ or Uganda or etc BANK in top 10 of regional ranking. That is how good our banks are.

While our banks are climbing up..you' banks if they weren't burning money...would be aiming at South Africa..where one bank (STANBANK) is equal to all your banks COMBINED.


And regionally

obaaderemi:
Your money then is not the smart money, Odhiambo. KCB is growing at 5%. It will forever remain small unless you grow your economy and stop lying about your phantom exports and GDP. Please, send the latest data on KCB. Let's compare notes.

Dream on. We are aiming at south Africa. There is nothing we can learn from Nigeria or aim for. Our growth is broad-based and solid.

15yrs ago our economy was $12B - and after growing it consistently for 15yrs at 5-6%- now it's at $80B (not cooked). Now if grow at same rate - and I don't see any reason why we shouldn't - we don't depend on one or two sectors - then in 15yrs - around 2033 - our GDP should be $550B (NOT COOKED) - and I think South Africa - will be around there too...because their growth is anemic and they have serious structural issues to resolve.

If South Africa are not carefully - we may reach them in 10yrs time.

15yrs ago - South Africa economy was $175B - now it's 317B - they have just nearly doubled! While we have grown ours nearly 7 times - without cooking!

15yra go - Nigeria GDP was believeable at $85B - now it's crazy overcooked at $400B

Therefore my projection is that in 15yrs now - Kenya will be Africa leading economy at $650B - followed by South Africa at 600B - with Nigeria okay still just being Nigeria !!!

i dont think thats gonna happen any soon....

we got used to freebies.....

buhari was not realy wrong for calling us lazy....

Name. one freebie Nigerians are used to. And yes buhari was wrong. The only reason the country is still relevant is the tenacity of the youths
.

I'm just here ROTFLMAO .. This Rvp17 is obviously a dunce.. and a confused one at that... he keeps going round in circle and changing goalposts... just yesterday, he said Kenya exports finishes goods to the US now he is saying it is to Sudan ... According to reliable data in the link I posted,over half of Kenya exports stay in Africa... where is the finished goods he is talking about? Nigeria's export might not be very good too cus we mostly export oil but at least we know what we export and to where...unlike some low self esteemed folks from the east who are looking for relevance



He even said Benin Republic and Togo are our competitors. lol... somebody should tell the dunce that almost half of Benin and Togo imports come from Nigeria.. yes! there is hardly any country in West Africa were Nigeria isn't one of their major import partners.. the problem we are having with those counter is due to our porous border..Some Nigerian businessesmen will import goods from other countries which will arrive at Benin Republic and will b smuggled to Nigeria... the reason is because its cheaper to purchase and bring in the goods from those countries than to imported them directly to Nigeria.... a lot of people who are into trading also prefer to buy their goofs from Benin Republic. it's cheaper there... In all,Benin Republic itself benefits more from it...

Oga if you are amongst the 85million in extreme poverty, then accept my condolences. Also l never knew Nigeria is just so full of refugee camps and this is where you live and all the people you know.
We are arguing based on facts and statistics, while you are more interested in telling a Kenyan(of all people) that Nigeria has refugee camps resulting from the BokoHaram crises?

Now you are really scraping at the bottom of the barrel. South Africa and Nigeria both have 6 banks on that list.Kenya has only two and both combined are about the size of access bank. No wonder Nigerian banks are eating your breakfast. How can you compete with such Lilliputian kiosks you call banks?

That iidiot is one of those who hasn't gotten over Jonathan's loss. They were many on them on this thread.

Kenya exports textile and apparels - worth 500M dollars ($0.5B) to US of A annually. The jeans or other clothes you buy in the US - chance are they are from Kenya or Mauritus or Lesotho or Bangladesh. Next time try to read the label - you'll see MADE IN KENYA.

As for long story of Benin & Togo - I don't know how to respond to that - sound like total chaos - we have porous border with Somalia and they do sneak in lots of goods - but it's nothing - worth worrying about on the large scale.

Lol, how can your economy grow when Ethiopia and Tanzania are already muscling you out.

We are looping here. You know you merged you banks to get here. You know we are organically growing - and so fast - we are going to overtake all you banks - very very soon.

Lying comes naturally to you, Odhiambo. Where is the link showing the $500m apparel export?It is cooked like your GDP and growth figures.

i didnt understood his statement....and even in the terroritory of enemies....he is actualy saying all youths in africa are lazy.....

whats not realy true...

Both Ethiopia and TZ - are about the same with Nigeria - about twice in Kenya area wise and population wise - but still they can't smell kenya. And if they did - I have no problem with that. Ethiopia had overtaken kenyan - but after they devalued their birr - they are now below kenya. As for TZ - their economy is $50B - and ours $80B - and mostly from minning - if you know TZ - and their lazy disposition - there is no way they can catch up - despite all the gold, the tonnes of natural gas they discovered and diamond.

Kenya will stand tall in Africa - and will overtake South Africa around 2030. I hope this thread will survive that long with us!

Nigeria with your world re-known fakery - you're going NOWHERE. Next you tell us you're 1 trillion dollar economy but your taxes will be 20B dollars

look,i dont give a blue shitt about kenyans....let them measure their black kenyan dicks alone....

this is about nigerian matter....when your own leader talks like this in front of your enemies,then you have a problem....

i know,nigerian youths are not lazy......

This rsvp17 guy is not worth it.At best he is a teenager and at worst a dunce. The previous Kenyans did a bad job but at least they had some brains. This one is insufferable and a disgrace to the other Kenyans who had been flogged off this site.

2016 - Kenya exported nearly 400M usd - worth of textile to USA. Now do the projection for 2018 figures (based on the growth rate)...and my estimate of $0.5b is conservative.

Classic nigerian. You're trying to lynch me because you cannot re-butt my sound arguments. Thank goodness for the internet - you can't reach me. And please give a break your generator. Ohoo boy how do you guys live. I have heard Lagos and Nigeria cities is permeated by the sounds of generators. Must be very annoying.

kenyans are the most miserable blacks on the planet....

Kenya nearly doubled its exports to the United States under AGOA from $225 million in 2010 to $389 million in 2016. Apparel is mainly exported under AGOA.
https://agoa.info/news/article/15332-kenya-aims-doubling-2016-exports-value-to-us-by-2025-under-agoa.html
And if you want pictures I can help you see the huge factories where those textiles and apparels are made.
