Suit yourself. Nigerians mispronounce almost every English word they speak anyway. At least for Kenyans you could only find one.

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.

You hardly find those labels in normal daily activity. They are just scholarly-linguistic labels just like Niger-Congo A for the tribes in Nigeria. Have you returned to Nigeria because you are sounding ever more slow by the day?

Yemi Alade does not have sense. How can she commit this blunder, apostle must hear this. Not only is she wrong, this statement also lacks factual truth, how does Kenyan culture have more depth than Nigerian culture?

*sigh*

The word is versatile. All of the Nigerians wear the same clothing like in conservative Muslim countries so the whole country is one uniform mess. Your country looks like a military camp or a primary school. Kenya is the opposite, people wear differently from traditional to modern to everything. Thats versatility.

I thought Jumia was long sold to some German fund. Would you now call it white? The nature of modern commerce is such that there is no white or black - unless you're a retrogressive Nigeria. Nothing stops a British fund or Nowergian fund from investing heavily in Nigeria companies. The problem with Nigeria is they are very retrogressive. You aint even out there seeking strategic partnership that can help you companies ran world-class - look at Kenya - KQ works with KLM - Safaricom with Vodafone - name it - those are not "whites" who've been in kenya for generation...those are MNC out there actively looking for business, partenrship and chance to expand. But if you sit and lament that RSA is far ahead because of some whites - then you're an incorrigible idiot.
There's no evidence Jumia was sold to any German fund, at least l've never heard of that. What l know is that the founders are no longer the CEO's .
Strategic partnership is good, but the point is without strategic partnership from whites where are the black African businesses globally? We need partnership but we must first of all learn to be independent to an extent. Where was Safaricom before Vodafone took over in 2000? Look at Jumia, even at 2014, they were already getting big on the continent and not just Nigeria. That's what I'm talking about, what can Kenyans make global without the whites' strategic partnership?

Safaricom was not developed by whites - Kenya's black Telkom started Safaricom and ran it for 3yrs - before offering strategic shareholding of 40% to Vodafone. You ideas about black or whites are retrogressive and sickening. Right now Nigeria should be busy attracting MNC & creating MNC - those MNCS are listed - and are owned by anybody & everybody. For example Vodafone is not "white" - you can buy it shares - the same with Dangote or Zenith.

Basically don't look for excuses - just work hard to have more Nigeria MNC or large companies like Safaricom that operate exclusively in Kenya & still made the cut.Nigeria should be busy attracting FDIS - China was not colonized by whites - but US & European companies rush there to invest. Nigeria has no excuse why it's not attracting FDIS - that would help make more of their companies make the cut.


These guys are so backward minded. Something as simple as strategic partnership escapes them. Thats why running something like a national airline is rocket science to them. Because in their shallow brains, if its not Dangote then fvck it, let the airline collapse!

Were they laughing at the joke or accent, it is probably both. We find your accent funny! He comes here often because he is invited, comedy is a big money business here. We even invite Ugandan comedians, where's the big deal?

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

Lebanese in Nigeria have here for a long time, some spanning 3 generations ago...

When you consider that Nigeria had military dictatorships, and massive corruption and then maybe you'll understand why Nigeria is in its current state

Kenyan comedians rarely use an accent that can make us laugh,maybe they would when they are mimicking a politician. We just laugh at the raw jokes, not the accent. His main target audience has all been Kenyans tbf, we just love mixing English and Swahili. I got to say the way Trevor Noah does it is so marvellous, the best one in Africa in standup comedy I'd say!

Are you sure he can amuse Ghanians or Liberians with his accent?

Why do you insist when its been proved there are more Indians in Dangoteland,per capita and on the whole?



Ours are a 100k citizens!

There are estates and different places in Kenya that are dominated by Indians. Can you show me one single part of Nigeria dominated by Indians or Lebanese?
For a group to number 1 million in Nigeria, at least there must be areas dominated by them.

How many Nigerians do online shopping seriously? In Kenya, from the peasant farmer in a remote village to the slum dweller in Kibera to the filthy rich in Muthaiga, everyone shops in malls. We can confidently be proud of malls. Online shopping is something that less than 1% of Nigerians use regularly - not always but regularly. In Kenya, many people buy in malls always. It's stupid to compare malls in Kenya with online shopping in Nigeria.

Stop being a cheap and unreasonable hater.

Read the links below and see the population of Nigerians shopping online... The world now recognizes the power of our online shopping population and you are here typing rubbish.
If Nigerians were not shopping online in crazily huge numbers then our online shopping companies wouldn't have been so rich to the extent of coming to dominate your own Kenyan market..

Safaricom is state owned but it is what it is today due to the influence of Vodafone, it has been hugely developed by whites, am l wrong?

You are certainly correct bro. Safaricom can never be compared to Globacom that was started from the scratch and 100% owned by a black man.

That was how Kenyans here refused to let us breathe because of Mpesa, only for them to be disgraced openly here that Mpesa was the idea of a foreigner. Since then they have kept it shut in shame.

It's just the truth. Jumia for example, is a Nigerian enterprise. lf foreign companies get's involved and makes it one of the top 200 global brands, it would be hypocritical to deny this.
lt is not very easy for the black man to sell his brand globally. Not even easy for whites who do not have access to world power and peiviledge. When you understand this, you'll see why Africans must try to grow from within by first promoting home grown indigenous enterprises and satisfying the indigenous market and taste before anything else.

1. Safaricom does not sell globally. It's services are strictly within the boundaries of Kenya.

2. Jumia is no longer owned by Nigerians but foreigners now despite the fact that you guys keep bragging about it. You low self-esteem drives you to study how big companies in other African countries are successful because of the white man so much that you forget your own companies are worse.

3. If you really believe the part in bold then it's absurd how you keep rubbishing development from other African countries as driven by foreigners.

4. The part in bold is a manifestation of your low self-esteem. You don't need a white man to sell your product in Africa. You guys need self-esteem classes.
