I think Kenyans in Nairobi do a lot of partying. For real, I have a friend who moved from Nairobi to Addis for this reason. Her dad feared she won't be schooling much for this reason

Do you guys party a lot?

On a second note we do party alot an if ya top rank DJ ya rolling with money ...

Msee umeamka .. nami doo nalala

. . . .

All systems go as these leaders battle it out for the top job in Kenya. Raila Odinga and his Running mate Kalonzo Musyoka seeking to unseat Uhuru Kenyatta and his Running mate (vice president) William Ruto. 38 days remaining...

ednited:


We are both same tribes. But you are very sensitive on the tribe thing

I am not very concerned tho

Why are you very sensitive on that?
seen your new topic

To be honest with you, I wasn't like this before 3 months ago. The reason that made me like this my extensive search about Ethiopia online(this forum also hugely contributed).

Ednited, in real life I'm not like this. It's only when I get emotional I write those kind of things.

A tradition for Kenyan politics is the launch of party manifestos by all parties seeking elective positions. Each party has to provide in writing exactly what they plan to do for the people of the nation. I dont know if this is a tradition in your countries? Here were the launches of NASA Alliance (Raila Odinga & Kalonzo Musyoka) and JUBILEE Alliance (Uhuru Kenyatta and William Ruto) respectively.

Nigerians are predominantly Bantus, so why do they hate them?

Nigerians are predominantly Bantus? Hell no we aren't!

West Africans are like a unique breed of Africans with an identity of our own. I wonder why most Horn africans think all other Black africans are the same and are Bantus.
Most Nigerians and West africans have never even heard the word 'Bantu' in their entire lives.
Bantus dominate Central, Southern and Eastern Africa and they are believed to have although originated from West africa.

And did I ever argue about Hausa foot soldiers?

You did not argue about hausa foot soldiers, but you are playing down their relevance, forgetting that Hausa was the language of the caliphate and spoken by most fulanis who were already becoming heavily hausanized.

It is very pointless adressing Hausanized fulanis as fulanis., cos the former are almost no different from Hausas themselves. So i don't see anything wrong in calling some of the jihadic wars hausa-fulani wars, just as those embarked on by the Nupes can be very much called Nupe-hausa-fulani jihad wars.

TayserMahiri:


Really? The kind of languages I see them writing here dont even remotely resemble Bantu. I see Genie, Nowenuse and Isalhabash write very strange words.

We are not writing strange words. We are writing Hausa language which is spoken as a lingua franca by 100- 150 million people in over 5 different countries of West and Central africa as a 1st, 2nd or 3rd language.

Hausa is sometimes ranked ahead of your Swahili as the most spoken African language.

9jakool:

Seeing that I've already addressed most of your points, I'm just going to adress this specific one. The Hausas are not the only present day Nigerians to develop a writing script or even the only one to do so from Arabic.

The Yorubas of Nigeria also develop a writing script from Arabic and they also called it Ajami. The Swahili all the way in East Africa also did so and they called it Ajami. See any similarities? Ajami is not a term that is unique to the Hausas as it's just an Arabic word for the various modified Arabic scripts used to write African languages.

And lastly, the modified Ajami scripts are not the only precolonial scripts used in Nigeria which is contrary to your claim. Odu Ifa of the Yorubas can be considered a form of writing, although it differs from the conventional modes of writing. If you are looking for that, then there is a so called minority ethnic group from the deep forests of central Cross River states that developed a form of ideograph writing called Nsibidi which dates back almost 2,000 years ago long before the Hausas even made contacts with Islam or Arabs.

Yoruba developed Ajami? Never heard of that. Are there scrolls and precolonial documents in this yoruba ajami script to prove this?
Cos, Hausa ajami was so popular among the hausa masses that it entered our naira notes and national army logo.

I'd like to know about this Yoruba odu ifa please.

I have heard about Nsibidi writing and it seems like Igbos are now laying claim to it. I heard it was developed by the Ekoi people. Unfortunately it was never a very developed form of writing, neither was it scriptinzed. ...please, do you know if the Ekoi masses or elders of today themselves decode it?

Nigeria to supply Walmart with $6 billion worth of cashew nuts.

Wow, this is huge!

Agriculture is really the future of Nigeria.

GERALD710:

Slums, based on innacurate information.
Nigerians have an inflated sense of their entertainment industry.I come from coastal Kenya,we do not watch Nigerian movies.We watch Bollywood and Hollywood.
Indians have little power in Kenya.Kenya is defined by tribal politics.Indians are yet to be designated as a tribe, even though they clamor for it
As for Whites in Kenya, they are a virtual non entitiy these days.Politically and economically, they are dwarfed by the Government of Kenya.
As for African cultures, the Maasai culture is one of the most recognizable form of African culture out there.Whether you go to China, the US or the UK, the Maasai are known.
Nigerians are associated with the 'Nigerian Prince 'culture and the drug culture.
In my own country, you have brought us this drugs nonsense!
https://citizentv.co.ke/news/two-nigerians-arrested-with-heroine-worth-ksh-4-5m-in-mombasa-168947/

Whatever accurate or innacurate info about Kenyan slums does not stop Nairobi from officially having the largest, most numerous and most populous slums in Africa. Check any ranking anywhere, it's same.

Coastal Kenyans watching Nigerian movies or not does not stop Nigerian movies/musics from being the most watched in Africa (excluding viewership from Nigeria).

Having African cultures is a very different thing from promoting African cultures! How well has the govt and masses of Kenya promoted and nationalized their traditional clothes, traditional festivals, carnivals, national arts, crafts and cultural theatre performances and exhibitions?

Genieluv did not mention whites alone in Kenya, she also mentioned Indians, seeing how you have succesfully excused the whites, i bet you would have done likewise for the Indians, if not that the achievements of the Indians in Kenya are speaking volumes too loud to be denied or excused. Lol

Kenyans will always be Kenyans. Lying and excusing themselves always.

Oh I thought otherwise. Huge thanks for correcting me.

So to what classifications are you guys grouped?

Jeeeez Kenyans, we are tired of seeing this the same picture of Eldoret all the time.

Most of us, Nigerians and West africans fall under the Niger-Congo languages/ethnic groups, while others like the Berbers and Chadics fall under the Afro-asiatic classification just like you semitics and cushitics. We also have some Nilo-saharans.

25% of all new skyscrapers under construction in the whole continent of 55 countries are in Nairobi,Kenya

- Nairobi solidifies its emergence as Africa’s premier skyscraper hub as construction starts on Hass Tower in Nairobi – the first supertall to begin construction in Africa. Nairobi is in the midst of a skyscraper building boom,accounting for almost a quarter of all active high-rise construction in Africa – far outpacing any other comparable cities.Adding to that will be the Hass complexwhen it starts construction in September. The two-tower project will break a number of records, featuring Kenya’s two tallest buildings, Africa’s first supertall tower, and two of the three tallest buildings on the continent. Its construction will solidify Nairobi’s emergence as Africa’s primary skyscraper city.

The best slavery ever might I add , seeing that people from " free Nigeria " are making long queues at our embassies daily burdening our staff members to come down here lol. Our police and immigration officers are working overtime time here tracking down Nigerians to save them from getting used to "slavery " but the Nigerians are busy running and hiding under bridges avoiding being sent to their " free country" . This tells me "freedom" ain't that nice afterall and I never want to experience it . Here's a deal , keep the freedom in Nigeria and stop flocking down here and we will keep our slavery and we promise we will never step foot over there. Thank you in advance .
