Dude, fiber optic cables are in ALL counties of Kenya, even as far as Garissa and Turkana. They all have fiber optic cables. See the breakdown of which fiber lines pass where in map below. You can go to the site http://icta.go.ke/nofbi-transmission-network/ to zoom in and look for your favorite town Garissa.

Everywhere in Kenya there is fiber optic cables transmitting on average at a minimum of 13.7 megabits per second, twice as fast as the global average. Thousands and thousands of kilometers of fiber optic cables and this was done almost a decade ago.

Not just that, these days, the Kenya Power Co. (your nepa equivalent) is laying fiber optic cables on all new power transmission lines. Dude! Its called fibre-to-the-home services and is done via optical fiber cabling. Basically, the fibre optic cables are strung between the tops of all new high-voltage transmission lines combining the functions of grounding and communications. The Fibre optic cables are based on Optical POPGW cableilot Ground Wire (OPGW), with 48 optical fibres or cores. And the firm hopes to have this in all its power lines across the country.

That helps not just in connecting more Kenyans to high speed broadband internet but will also be a revenue to them but most importantly, will ensure that they can gather information about their power transmission systems, such as which transmission lines are in service, the amount of power being carried, meter reading at interchange points, and status of equipment and alarms. Your Nepa will need a century to achieve this kind of vision and efficiency.

Just remind the fool, the list says Kenya has one of the highest internet speed in the world,It does not say Nairobi.

naijalander:


Your dumb a$$ stillaint getting it.

Again I ask, why does it matter how it is pronounced ?
You Kenyans are sexist, classist and elitist fucktards with low self esteem, you wishou could be as cool as us.

Of all things in the world why would anyone wish to be Nigerian? lol. Low self esteem white man butlicking boastful morons who can't even realize people are making fools of them.

It will take years for these folks to comprehend the level of advances Kenya has made. He thinks fast internet is only in Nairobi when someone is Garissa is most likely browsing faster than him.

Nowenuse:


What the hell do you mean by to savers are not based in Nigeria?
Most of the products available in Nigerian online markets are from Nigeria.

Assuming Dangotelanders prefer online shopping, how do they get the purchased goods delivered in Makoko?

obaaderemi:
That's to show you Little Indians can only see things in black and white. They don't know that details are hidden in grey areas. What do you expect from people who owe Indians, whites,Arabs, Somalis and Nigerians for the significant things in their countries.

Oyibo this, oyibo that? Somalia and Nigeria are failed states, what can you teach us? What can alshabaab and boko haram teach us?

gallivant:

For areas that may not be safe or easily accessible, there must be a delivery point very close by which is safer, accessible and still quite close enough...

Ditch your preference of malls. Online shopping is the future and the way to go....
For someone like me, I hate wasting my time going to malls to shop! Some people are too busy for things like that and that's where online shopping comes in handy...

There is nowhere in your links that prove that the entire Kenya enjoy the kind of speeds you are boasting about... I went through your links.

The project is commendable but it still needs a lot of work to achieve all that you list.
Besides, fibre optic cables have a limited distance coverage... They are only situated in your major towns and we know that Kenyans are overwhelmingly rural... So, it can never benefit up to half of your population, perhaps only a quarter of the population when it works to full capacity.

So what's the point, malls are safe delivery points with fun things to do. Way better than yaba market. Anyway, Nigerians shopping online was a cop out because malls and other widely accepted concepts and norms are alien to you. Stick to your cults and voodoo. Online shopping my butt.

1. The average internet speed in KENYA is faster than your country and at par with the developed world.

2. 85 % of Kenyans use the internet (compared to Nigeria's 50 %).

3. That means only 15 % of Kenyans are missing out (50 % for you)

4. The average speed in point 1 is for the whole country not for Nairobi or a few towns.

5. If you have a brain you know what that means.

6. But since you dont, the network I shared in the post is the backbone of the country.

7. Connections emanate from the backbone, not end there.

Nairobi is twice Lagos Per Capita, I know you will refuse and denie as usual..

Let me break it down for you..

KENYA'S GDP currently is at $88b and Nairobi controls about 50% of that=$44b

Nairobi population is currently around 4.5Million people

When you make quick maths, Nairobi GDP per capita is over $10,000.

Twice lagos.

no stats to prove it... If only you had a source

Abuja barely controls a percentage of Nigeria's gdp but its gdp per capita is higher than the national per capita..

That's why Nigeria has the richest black man. That's why other African counties thank Nigeria for sending teachers to them and even beg for more teachers.. That's why other African nations want Nigerian investments (especially cement).. The other day Tanzania was asking for more companies like Dangote to be established in Tanzania

I don't see Somalia having the richest African.. I don't see somalia sending teachers to other countries.. I don't see Somalia with multinational companies, .... etc

Things are bad in Nigeria but definitely not as bad as Somalia

I found a source....

The report, however, dismisses the common belief that Nairobi, the capital, has the highest concentration of Kenya’s wealth – having clocked a per capita wealth of $1,081 to finish in eighth position, one spot ahead of Mombasa with a GDP per capita of $935.

The report puts Nairobi’s share of Kenya’s GDP at 12.7 per cent, dispelling the notion that the city accounts for more than 60 per cent of national output.

this was not too recent.. this report was done in 2015...

Nairobi has a long way to go in competing with Lagos

You get discriminated against in your own capital

According to local media reports, a Chinese restaurant in the Kenyan capital Nairobi has adopted a rather unsavory practice. After 5 p.m., most African patrons are barred from entering the premises.

Bantu Africans are just coons who are incapable of business and will take anything from foreigners. I don't like it when people lump West Africans: Nigerians Ghanaians, Senegalese with East Africans. We are very different from them mentally...

Lagos malls

Kenyans are tribalistic and racist. They give each other labels like Bantu and Nilot. Who does that? In Nigeria, your either Yoruba, Igbo, etc. In Kenya, thy label each other Nilot and Bantu not Kikuyu or Luo - that is deep endemic racism.

Bantu, Nilotes and cushite is a linguistic grouping. Luo, kikuyu is a tribe just like Yoruba,Igbo or Zulu.Your desperation is making you pull facts from where the sun don't shine.

South African malls.

I see Game, Shoprite, Standard Chartered.....where are the Nigerian multinationals Nwoke was talking about? Too bad you can't sell Dangote cement in malls.

Dangote is still in Tanzania.. Tanzania tried to get 16% of Dangote's assets in Tazanaia for free. Dangote never built a factory in Kenya

Ah I see you you haven't heard of Nigerian multinationals especially our banks..

GT bank
UBA
Access Bank
Zenith Bank
Union Bank of Nigeria
Diamond Bank

Some of those banks are even in Kenya... Guess what, they're black owned


We even have our own indigenous telecoms company that's multinational like MTN: It's called Globacom

Let's also not forget Jumia that's also in Kenya

Recently our tech companies are also going multinational


When it comes to Nigerian multinational companies, most of them are either banking or manufacturing(especially cement)

Just a day ago,

Earlier the Tanzanian High Commissioner underscored the presence and positive roles of Nigerian firms in his country, particularly in the manufacturing and banking sectors

Also,

The Tanzania envoy further conveyed the appreciation of the President of Zanzibar, which is a semi-autonomous region within Tanzania, to President Buhari for the deployment of 41 Nigerians teachers in the region under the Technical Aid Corps (TAC) programme of Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
He said the teachers are doing very well and appealed for the deployment of more Nigerian teachers to Tanzania.

Source for both quotes: https://www.channelstv.com/2018/06/07/nigeria-to-strengthen-economic-ties-with-tanzania/

I wonder why Tanzania isn't asking Kenya for teachers... hmmm

Nigeria even has an aid program for lesser developed African countries, to send teachers to them...




Nigerians, feel free to add more multinational Nigerian companies

Jay254:


When you discuss with this Yahoo and Voodoo boys you get the feeling that they feel sad whites never settled in Naija..

Ooohh you have good infrastructure because of Oyibo,, ooooh your retail sector is because of oyibo.. Your cities are well planned because of oyibos?? This guys have low self-esteem.

At first I had the feeling Nigerians hate the white so bad so I went on Utube and watched Whites in the streets of Nigeria...

Am telling you it's urgly everyone stops and starts celebrating..Oyibo...oyiboo..oyibooo.. from the kids to the old grandparents..

I reflected back home and no one will care a bout a white person walking on the streets.

They need to accept that their godly white man will NEVER return to Nigeria

nwoke37:


The majority of South Africa is black just like Nigeria.. It's been reported that Nigeria has 1 million Indians.. We have plenty of Lebanese too, as well as Chinese..

Virtually all your multinational companies are white yet the majority of the country is black... hmmm

Lebanese in Nigeria are foreigners while whites in South Africa have been citizens for centuries.

Given the history of South Africa,everyone with half a brain and that actually uses it know why most of the multinational companies are white.you on the other hand have no excuse as to why your giant is in a shîtty state
