Afonja, not story. Afonjas and Hausa-Fulani have low IQ. They belong to a type of black people called Hamites, not Shemites like Igbos and Tutsi.

good for them,they should keep it up.but pls never compare yourself with others,this idea of always comparing nigeria with other countries is sickening,it breeds jealousy and envy especially among black countries,let them do their thing and we do our thing,if they are successful we should praise them no need to start comparing ourselves with them and constantly cursing Nigeria.No country is perfect even once perfect looking countries are experiencing pains now,eg chile
We should swallow our pride and borrow a leaf from Rwanda. Comparison is necessary because we always pride ourselves as the giant of Africa

Jekwu Ozoemene is that you. One of your critics did say that the report was centered on the capital city Kigali. Don't you think the comparison should be between capital cities of both countries instead of the whole country?.
Secondly I learnt that Rwanda still experience epileptic power supply in many towns too so why use one city to drive a point

Yes I know, I acknowledge the fact that SA is light years ahead of us, but Rwanda? nope I don't believe that.


You better believe it, Johannesburg alone is better than Rwanda as a nation, i only spoke of Joburg

There still other developed cities, believe it of not little factories making headlines and celebrated that are built in Kigali rwanda capital city are one that we get in villages in South Africa. And factories and firms like that in SA are no big deal in SA.

Village ls got tarred and paved roads, 24hr electricity, refuge collection, sewage systems, tapped wate on every household, having a car is no luxury in SA its common.

Rwanda has one good city kigali, if it was in SA it would be a small town

Rwanda had over 50% access to electricity as at the time I left there in 2017 with a target to have 100% access by 2024. If you know Kagame's execution capacity then you know that target date must be achieved.

I was there when they privatised power sector assets and commenced a massive off grid expansion.

I did not have a generator in my house for the 3 years plus that I lived there. Even the generator in my office, (a bank within a large retail centre comprising a major supermarket and line shops etc) was hardly ever put on.

Now, using population difference to put down Rwanda's achievement is ironic. 60-70% of Rwanda's budget is funded by Taxes. If Nigeria could fund 60-70% of its budget through taxes from 200 million people our government will not complain of lack of revenue.

Every business in Rwanda has a Rwanda Revenue Authority electronic billing machine which makes tracking tax compliance easy, thus it is a crime to transact outside this machine.

The 15th and 16th of every month is tax payment day and banking halls spill over with people rushing to meet the deadline. None payment attracts severe penalties.

I hosted the management of Corona Secondary School Agbara when they came to understudy two schools in Rwanda, one public and the other private (the private one is owned by a friend). Corona was chasing a particular international certification of which just a few schools in Africa had... take that in for a moment. Corona, one of the best and elitist schools in Nigeria came to understudy public schools in Rwanda!

I invited Lagos Business School's OMP 22 Class of 2016 to Rwanda to understudy their public institutions. Almost all of them shed tears when they saw the difference. Since then, Rwanda has become part of their study tour.

Rwanda has about 96% universal health coverage and pushing to 100%. To put this in perspective, my driver in Rwanda had health insurance. Universal health coverage in Nigeria is still at 1% of our population.

Government offices mandatorily use 4G and are already preparing mandatorily for 5G, to the extent that video conference meetings is common for even local government councils.
By the way, Kigali is one of the cleanest cities in the world, and by far the cleanest city in Africa. The cleanliness was one of the first things my young daughter noted on her first visit.

Rwandese police use Radar guns to check over speeding. If you are caught breaking the speed limit, you are issued a ticket, your license is confiscated, and you have a limited window to pay the defined fine and collect your licence back at a traffic police office. No stories.

You can register a business and print your certificate of registration online in less than 3 hours. Registration and transfer of land title does not exceed 48 hours.

Other than Mauritius which is a tax haven, Rwanda has consistently led Africa in ease of doing business.

The world knows the difference sef. When my entry level Rwandese staff apply for a US tourist visa, they are given a 10-year multiple entry visa, yet me that have been traveling since 19kpiridim, I never get beyond 2 years multiple entry.

I can go on and on....

Yeah! It is possible that the writer studied just the capital city to draw conclusion.

[s]Their capital Kigali is beautiful and neat no doubt, but Rwanda is still no where close to us In terms of GDP (per capital and nominal) and HDI. Even in east Africa they are not among the top 3.

Rwanda is highly overrated and overhyped by some of you, I understand your dislike for the country, believe me, I'm also mad at our stupid leaders, but common, Rwanda?

What you see online is just a mirage.[/s]

Oga, travel and see. If you no get money for air ticket, YouTube is free.

Taxes end up in billion vans. Money is not Nigerians problem, look at the thrillions wasted through corruption in NDDC and the Niger Delta states that receive the highest allocation that look like war zones.

The worse thing about this whole issue is that our politicians are not even making any move to better the country. It's just like as if the matter does not concern them at all.

Stop overhyping shitholes. Rwanda as a country is overrated.

Look through the lies and deceit. I haven't traveled to the country myself, but I personally have interacted with someone who has been there, watching some few minutes videos on YouTube doesn't make a lie a truth.

I can as well refer you to mind-blowing videos of Lagos and Abuja in that same YouTube, doesn't change anything. I know some countries in Africa that are light years ahead of us and it would be foolish to for me to debate about that, but you see this Rwanda lies, we would continue to correct some of you who use every little opportunity to insult your nation, not minding if it's a lie or truth.

PS: The " If you no get money for air ticket, YouTube is free." part is unnecessary, you don't have to broke shame me to pass your point, if you continue with that tone, you will be ignored.

Nobody is holding you back sir.
The tendency to always blame others for your misfortune is for low minds.



Afonjas are not in charge of your State.

Are Hausa-Fulani the reasons why there is no efficient modern Transportion system/pipe borne water supply in Anambra or effective waste disposal system in Abia?
