Both Nigeria and Ethiopia are leading in ethnic fights - that rarely make news. In Ethiopia and Nigeria - in a week 100 or even 500 people can be killed and thousand displaced in ethnic fights that don't even make international news. Just like it's routine for Boko-Haram to kill so many people and displaced thousands without it ever making news. Election violence are so bad - 65 people got killed in Kaduna and it's like nothing happened.

Because it didn't happen, you idiot. Nigeria has serious problem with ethnic violence but don't believe everything you read on nairaland,especially when it's coming from terrorists like el rufai,the Kaduna governor. But then, We still remember how thousands died during Kenya's election, including babies and how your president was bundled to international court of justice. You always look for an excuse to be bashed. The Ethiopian girl knows what she is talking about.

The dude lies too much. so it is better to let him leave in his oblivion world.

my purpose is to let him continue with his ignorance while those who want to learn will apply critical thinking. How can a coke be sold for 4 cedis when Ghana don't drink orobo coke. the boy doesn't know that there are some items thst are cheaper in Ghana. like a park of st lius sugar(450 gram) which is sold for 600 naira and sold for just half of that price in Ghana at 4 cedis and some other regular product as well

I am glad it didn't happen.

Obviously we have ethnicity problem that eventually boiled over and about 1K were killed & about half a million displaced in 2007 - but we have taken action. First that ethnic bloodletting gave us new constitution that has devolution (weaker form of federalism) and that gaves us 47 counties that are somewhat independent. Those 47 counties generally mirror the 44 tribes and sub-tribes. And this has lessen the tribal competition for power somewhat.

We also enacted very strong hate speech laws. Forums like Nairaland were shutdown. Nairaland would cease to exists if it was in kenya. We have far-reaching hate speech laws. You cannot use say facebook in Kenya to spread ethnic hate - you'll be picked and charged for spreading hate speech.

You read Nairaland - the amount of ethnic hate speech there - would get Seun in serious trouble in Kenya.The few kenyans in diaspora spread hate speech once in a while but it's now rare - because the police cyber unit will definitely track you.

We have National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) whose job is to address and reduce inter-ethnic conflicts.

As you can see the difference btw Kenya and Nigeria is day & night. We are a progressive country. You're regressing. If we have a problem - we try to find solutions to it - and not ignore it and hope it will somehow disappear.

There's no commodity in Ghana that's cheaper than what u get in naija, not even a table water!

A monkey interrupted Kenya's power supply and it became international news. I guess some things are pretty common when it happens elsewhere such that they don't need any reporting!

St lius package sugar, palm oil, public transport fare and some few others i can't remember for now. but with the one i mentioned above, Ghana had a reasonable price lower than what is obtainable in Nigeria .


Even the small coke in Nigeria is around 50 buck

first n foremost, I can't remember d last time I saw a st Louis sugar on d shelf of a supermarket, we have our own brand of sugar that we consume.

Yeah, a 33cl of coke in naija is 50naira, still cheaper than what u get in Ghana.

There's no commodity in Ghana that's cheaper than what u get in naija.

A nine billion dollar dam? That's almost the 10 billion they collect as annual revenues!

Who will consume all the 2000 plus MW of electricity from that dam? I doubt if they have the capacity to absorb all that. Both Ethiopia and Tanzania are looking towards selling Kenya their electricity. Kenya is on the other hand consolidating its own power production. We ony import power from Uganda during the drought so as to cover our deficit because of the low power output in our hydro plants . We are now building new dams and focusing on geothermal and other renewables, I don't think we will be in this business if importing some little power in the years to come.

This aint true...... And you can use the service of jumia to get your st lius sugar product if you find it difficult to get.And with that, The other commodities i made mentioned above are also cheaper as well. on a buisness level. there are many items smuggled from Ghana by Nigeria buisness men to Nigeria . i will be silent on that ( contact me privately if you are interested).

50 bucks is slightly lower than 1 cedis

Actually, we no longer import power from Uganda. In the colonial times, Kenya and Uganda were like one country (British East Africa Protectorate), there was only one source of power (Owen Falls Dam) and it was in Uganda. However immediately after independence Kenya started Constructing its own dams (Seven folks) and by the 1980s when they were complete, we were producing more electricity than Uganda and didn't have to import it from Ug.

Why do you always display your illiteracy openly, you this Ghanaian boy? In terms of hotels don't ever mention Ghana and Nigeria again in the same breath! Only the little Indians and South Africans can talk where Nigeria is in sub sahara Africa. Take your beer parlour gist away, little boy.

Precisely. Some of these investments are not well thought out. Kenya is already more than self-sufficient and there are still more investment on the pipeline. Uganda have nearly 1,000MW coming online soon (Karuma dam alone is 600MW) - and yet they are barely consuming 500MW. You can all excess capacity from Ethiopia and Tanzania. Unless East Africa really start doing serious minning, steel manufacturing and such heavy consumers of power - there is already an over-capacity - if you consider the power consumption per capita is very low due to poverty.

We may see a lot of white elephants. Better focus maybe on dams fro water supply and irrigation.

Of course,we don't depend on anyone for elecricity,but the overhead electricity lines that connects both Kenya and Uganda are there to help both countries in assisting each other in power during an emergency or sort! We both assist each other during emergencies in as far as power is concerned !

Western Kenya still depend on Jinja - Sondu -no dam reservoir & Turkwel -pokots- has issues!. Uganda makes a kill - selling power at 21kshs a unit. But now I think Ketraco is about done connecting Naivasha's Geothermal to western kenya -. Turkwell was suppose to fill that void but it's been closed for years now due to insecurity problem. It such a shame that such investment - 100MW - of power - cannot be produced because kenya police cannot gurantee the security of Kengen stuff. Sondu Mirru really functions only during rainy season because it doesn't have a reservior dam.

Uganda are going to get in trouble if they don't figure out how to consume 1,000MWs - Karuma dam alone will produce 600MWs - and it cost them nearly 2B dollars!!

Anyway maybe South Africa will eventually buy all the excess power given ANC inability to bring in new power sources down south.

This is a priority project. The president actually wants this to be one of his legacies when he vacates the statehouse. Development shouldn't be about roads and mega malls. We are investing more in softer areas such as education and healthcare. When this two areas are consolidated,all the other sectors flourish!

This is silly, to put it mildly. If the news from Nigeria is not international news,then how did you and your brothers hear about it? Remember, everything on nairaland is international news in Kenya. Probably, your politicians are also here.

Exactly my point! Our government itself is keen on not producing idle power. We are even now going slow on renewables such as solar and wind as we shift focus to geothermal, solar and wind are intermittent sources of power and the government is carefull not to have in excess of this two sources as you can have high windy days and high solar days likewise low windy and solar days hence bringing about the inconsistency of power injections from this two sources to the national grid!
