That is some nonsense. You have earn 1 trillion dollars from Oil and you have nothing - absolutely nothing to be proud of. You're near to a cursed nation if one existed.

Clearly you have never met corruption over 600 billion dollars has been lotted from Nigeria so how can we develop we are only getting back on our feet now yet you have not surpassed us in all these years that we have been stopped from developing because of corruption where have you been now we are getting back on our feet and nothing can stop us

AskiaHarem:

When Nigeria sneezes the whole of Africa catches a cold we are getting back on our feet and slowly we will make it there

SUFFERInSMILIIN I saw a Bloomberg report that Nigeria and Ghana are stealing your mining sector they say the new good rush is in Ghana and Nigeria and that southern Africa is running out haha just wait for your diamond dependant economy to fall

The bug difference between us two countries is that we will not allow them to just cart away all the gold and make it into jewelry to sell back to us but rather we will do everything here in Nigeria do not be surprised if you go out and you see jewelry made in Nigeria in your dear old country

Nigeria is growing whoever makes trade deals with us now will succeed in the future Ghana is already with us we are going to grow together do not worry we are going to be the first African world superpower we will represent the while of Africa on an international scale.

pacretus:
those countries are like villages if you'd ask me. Those kiberans keep talking development as if they have the money to it.

They kinda are and there the Kenyans were bragging about buying a bank in DRC that country is barely even developed any company there is probably very small

pacretus:
more developed than which country

Most of Africa like Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Mozambique, DRC, Gabon, Congo etc they may become more developed than Nigeria because they have less land and less people to account for so development is much easier for them

samorobo:
I am not even pessimistic about Kaduna urban renewal mostly because if el rufai presence....he designed Abuja and during his time Abuja was arguably the cleanest city in africa,(like freaking clean)...I have people complaining that he pulling down buildings, churches just for this millennium city...I heard he even pulled down one of the biggest mosques in Kaduna and I was like is that how serious this man is
.. That Abuja roads are wide and clean today it is because of him...

I know he did all this but you have to do what you have to do for development there has to be some sense of demolished if people build in specificareas that they were not originally suppose to build

master
all this hyperinflation thing
Nigerians have not heard it before oo
they dont know what youre talking about
they cant understand.

Basically, recession is coming

Hyperinflation nko our inflation is only 11.4% we are getting down to 9% by 2020 hyperinflation is not 11% clearly you are the one who does not understand anything

samorobo:
Lol this recession you and petrodola have been going about NL screaming is so funny...if you guys wants your goods here simply use the seaport and cargo airport then you pay every duties required..

When rice harvest is about to improve and return rice to 9,000 naira per bag next month, you are here crying recession and supporting smuggling

Not just my bag 75 kg bag is 9000 a 25 kg bag will be like 2500 nairs

They are going to rehabilitate thousands of roads in the metropolis than they will line the streets with trees and build 5 new shopping malls

They will then move to develop kaduna millennium city across the kaduna River they will build roads, street lights etc and they will build a 5 star hotel in kaduna as well with this they expect more companies to come to kaduna and now they are building a railway as well

They also transformed a field that was called gamji Park into a Waterpark called splash park they hav opened phase 1 when it is completed at phase 3 it will be the biggest Waterpark in west Africa and maybe Africa outside of South Africa

Any in other news SUFFERInSMILIIN well I happened to have heard some good news from Ibadan all those roads that you were showing pictures if well the government has set up a waste disposal company there will be no more trash on ibadan roads and they have started building drainages everywhere let me show you what they did to a road in ibadan in two hours.

So in ibadan that is the start of the ibadan masterplan to set up proper waste disposal plants the next step is to make waste recycling companies than it is to provide water than electricity


In kaduna the roads are being redone and expanded also new roads are being created the water park has completed phase 1 and they are building another one Centenary park this one will have 4 Rollercoaster a lake, a fountain, a hall in the middle of it and a promenade

Once the roads are done then the light rail will follow than we will see a lot more companies
can come to kaduna

samorobo:
You are right...Rwanda is really kicking arse and making serious headway......they may be among the largest economies but I see no reason why they can't be the Singapore of Africa......

My only problem with them is that outside Kigali (Kigali city centre to be precise) the rest part of the country is a bit uninspiring

I know everything is based in Kigali they have a masterplan for Kigali and Kigali alone the rest of the country is kinda left out in most of the development

Stevoh18:
4months ago can't be old knowing how things are moving slowly in Nigeria

Nothings moving slowly in Nigeria we are growing and progressing where we're you in Russia there were so many sweet deals I guess your country wasn't important enough for Russia anyway we will align ourselves with world powers whilst you can stick with China and drown in their debt

Stevoh18:
When we beat you in everything you just have to ignore that "per capital" ....there's nothing else you rank better than Kenya, just name it.....even in quality of the roads

We are better than you in the quality of roads do not lie you know it yourself you have the largest slums in the world you beat us at that congratulations you were right now have a lollipop

You also beat us in the amount of starving or malnourished people 4 million people well done you also get more aid than us I heard a company went to Kenya and said they would feed a child if they went to school so according to you Kenyans you have fiber in 80% of your schools and the government cannot provide food for the students smh

rvp2018:
Why are those multinational still controlling manufacturing in West Africa...in Kenya home brand long kicked most of them.Uniliver industries long lost to Bidco.Look like only Dangote has succeeded in Nigeria against Lafrage and the likes

Don't start acting like Kenyan companies own Kenya most of those companies are probably owned by Indians please just stop with your lies honestly the other day one of you was bragging saying companies have their headquarters in Kenya Unilever and nestle were part of that but your saying to me that foreign companies are taking over

China is a good example thousands in fact hundreds of thousands of foreign companies have set up their factories and companies there does it mean that they are controlled or the market is being taken over by foreign companies no it just means they were good at attracting foreign direct investments so they chose to set up their companies there and that is the case for Nigeria

samorobo:
Lol.i see you are beginning to understand them.. they are not people you can reason with..Nigeria signed the most deal followed by Egypt...in East Africa it was rwanda

Any way tell me more about that Kaduna urban renewal plan....I have heard about it

They are going to rehabilitate thousands of roads in the metropolis than they will line the streets with trees and build 5 new shopping malls

They will then move to develop kaduna millennium city across the kaduna River they will build roads, street lights etc and they will build a 5 star hotel in kaduna as well with this they expect more companies to come to kaduna and now they are building a railway as well

Beta had left way back since 80s not part of those who left in the millennium, unilever never left ( they are always listed on Nigeria stock exchange) ..I will be happy seeing dunlop coming back, but now with many branches ....

When did I mention in the millennium I just said companies had left stop changing my word in fact people are petitioning to have the border closed till 2021 just ebcuase more and more companies have been coming back when I said Unilever they have been here but they used to make butter and milk in Ghana and export it to Nigeria but now they make their butter, margarine and milk here in Nigeria

GODMALE:
Rwanda is funny so they want to be among Africa regional power house

They may never have as large economies as us but they may be way more developed and attract a lot of investments and just so you know I added growing economies for a reason.

samorobo:
Stop decieving yourself...you were jealous...

Show me that light rail deal you signed with Russia, you liar

Don't blame Germany for skipping your shiithole and wanting to spend a whooping sum of $1.1bn to build an entire city in Nigeria bless your primitive zoo...All we need to do is offer 100 hectares of land and then that is it....you will never attract such In your shiithole so envy us, it is Expected

Cry me a River...Nobody loves kenya

They are making excuses I bet that the Kenyans were not even at the event it was only the growing and actually big economies of Africa that were there

Rwanda sealed a 10 billion dollar nuclear power deal and they will set up a nuclear reactor at the University of Kigali

Egypt signed 5 railway deals and bought some military aircrafts

Nigeria bought 12 MI-35 helicopters, signed a railway deal for the Lagos-calabar railway and port Harcourt-maiduguri railway and part of the contract is to set up a train manufacturing plant in Nigeria, the Russians also agreed to rebuild and expand ajaokuta steel plant they said they would increase the original planned production so it will employ over 750 000 people

The Russians will also help in the construction of two nuclear power plants one in akwa ibom and another in bauchi state both states have uranium they will also set up three nuclear reactors on university of Lagos, ahmadu Bello University and the university of Ibadan

Then the Russians agreed to help the construction of the Ajaokuta-kaduna-kano gas pipeline which will create over 5000MW of electricity for Nigeria they also agreed to invest in Nigeria's refineries to increase their oil production and stop the importation of fuel

As well as this they signed a 500 million dollar deal to create a light rail in kaduna state which is currently doing an urban renewal with a private Chinese company and this project will cost them 2.5 billion dollars

Finally Nigeria signed a deal for wheat production and putin said that they would teach thousands of Nigerian farmers the best farming practices for wheat and barley so Nigeria can become the largest domestic producer of wheat in Africa just so you know Russia is the largest producer of wheat in the world

South Africa also signed a military deal to get some of the world's biggest military bombers which could carry out a nuclear strike they have already been delivered.

Unless you're buying banks in Nigeria itself I don't know why your so happy come to think of it has any Kenyan banking company made it onto the London stock exchange if they have please inform me because gtbank has been there since 2010 and zenith bank since 2012 gtbank already has 4 branches in kenya and has branches in Uganda, Tanzania,Rwanda and the whole of West Africa please we are not your mate

Nigeria has been looted so badly before yet you are behind us we have only had 5 years of good leadership in those 5 years we have gone up by 45 places in ease of doing business we have started our rail modernization program we have started the construction of 20 million housing units by 2030 we have started to diversify our economy away from oil and into technology, manufacturing, mining and agriculture we just signed a deal with a Canadian company to start mining gold here in Nigeria according to Bloomberg were about to experience a mining rush like no other

Manufacturing many companies have started to move to Nigeria especially because of the border closure already Unilever, Dunlop, Bata, have already started planning on building factories in Nigeria the textile sector is coming up very quickly the government has placed a ban on Importing textiles for schools, hospitals, military and the government itself all uniforms must be made in Nigeria and the government has helped to grow the cotton industry soon

Nigeria will be a progressive company we have been stabbed, raped and beaten but slowly we are recovering and getting back on our feat and what surprises me the most is how you have not passed us yet when we have giving you other 30 years, for 30 years we have been stuck in a cycle of looting and corruption it is only since 2015 that anything good has happened for Nigeria to be honest

Nigeria we will be fine

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
Very interesting that you don't even know what the agreement is about you are building light rails which cannot carry goods . Russia is going to sell Nigeria third hand helicopters which had been parked in Russia for 2 years without operating. Russia is also going to supply Nigeria used trains. It looks like Elijah Steel plant is repeating itself with a used components and machineries which Russia supplied Nigeria. This is what happens when a president goes all around the world begging

Clearly you know nothing about the contract part of the contract is building a factory to build the trains in Nigeria and the helicopters are ood quality and have been bought by India, England, Norway France and Germany the Russian Air force still uses those helicopters till today personally I think your just sad because Botswana couldn't seal any good deals because their just not important enough in fact were you even invited to the event.

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
Most African countries including third world countries GDP is not accurate and you cannot use GDP to measure a country's growth some African countries are putting borrowed money as their GDP. Order the African countries are putting properties abroad as their GDP. You cannot claim that property in America can be put as an African GDP. Nigeria's GDP is grossly fake there is no proper monitoring or structure.

First off kwankwaso was elected out of government and was proved to have stolen public funds so that news report is him trying to get back into politics after he failed


The second report says African so that could a pply to any country in Africa including Kenya and Botswana plus Nigeria's GDP would still be higher than both of yours if you tool away the apparently cooked gdp.

rvp20182:
Yes Ghana exporters lots of cocoa with Ivory Coast. Nigeria in 60s was one world's largest exporter of palm oil - actually from 18th century - but all that is gone done the drain. Bostwana obviously has the best beef industry in Africa.

When Nigeria palm industry recovers - I will now they are serious.

No Benin republic is the fifth largest importer of rice and then they smuggle the rice into Nigeria not that they produce real deal food they just smuggle it

Jonraid:
Looks like the juggernaut Safaricom has a new CEO in Peter Ndegwa

Safaricom is one of the global top 2000 corporations as presented by Forbes.

In 2018,it was the best employer in Africa and 67th in the whole world!

I just searched how much revenue they make it said 40 billion Kenyan shillings I converted that it said 327 million dollars whilst globacom(Glo) make 1.5 billion dollars if revenue and dangote's net worth is over 16 billion dollars if your company was bigger than dangote's he should be richer than dangote in fact he should be the richest black human in the world in that case but he isn't stop with your lies google can clear the misty lies that you produce.

signature2012:
Ok.

The difference between a leader and a ruler.

That's fake news on average it should not cost more than 8 billion dollars to build a nuclear power plant in fact rosatom the people who are supposed to build it have confirmed there was no 1 trillion dollar deal

Plus 1 trillion dollars is enough money to develop the whole of East and Central Africa pave all the roads build railway, provide electricity and water give them free houses all of that would probably amount to 1 trillion

rvp20182:
Lagos still get the largest share of federal (oil) money. Obviously Lagos ambitious budget is nothing compared to 77B Joburg with revenues of 8.7B dollars.

No it doesn't Lagos definitely depends on itself for majority of their money you Kenyans are just sad when we showed you the actual evidence and news reports of how your power minister was cooking up lies you went silent now I am asking you show me a fact and evidence otherwise this conversation is over.

rvp20182:
We have presented evidence. For example no way Nigeria agricluture which is 1/5-1/4 of your GDP is worth 100B - that would be bigger than Brazil or Indonesia or name any big boys agricluture with 2-4 times Nigeria land size, more advanced agricluture and with ships now on high seas with all sort food.

It easy to tell when someone is cooking GDP. You oil production is the same with Angola and Algeria - around 2m barrels per day - you cannot claim it bigger than Algeria in GDP.

We can go sector by sector...but try use the search functions first.

Clearly you are too stupid to understand no where does it say agriculture accounts 100 billion dollars it says agriculture accounts for 48 billion dollars stupid illiterate child please do not try and talk about what you do not understand

Nigeria has a massive banking sector as well as telecommunications and entertainment, nollywood makes about 10 billion dollars for Nigeria, banking we have a lot of massive banks and some are registered on the London stock exchange like gtbank and zenith bank and gtbank has stores all around Africa including Kenya same for zenith bank

Telecommunications Glo company is a massive telecommunication company in Nigeria which have started their expansion into East and Central Africa.

As you can see it is not just oil that we depend on that is why our gdp is so high if you search Nigeria gdp it talks about how Nigeria has the largest manufacturing sector in Africa check if you want to

So Kenyans shut up do more research before you try and argue or talk down about Nigeria

NairobiWalker:
In 2014, the GDP of Nigeria was $568 billion, currently, the GDP of Nigeria is $375 billion. You're saying the GDP of Lagos was $90 when that of Nigeria was $568 and now it is $136 when that of Nigeria is $375. Are you trying to say the GDP of Nigeria shrunk while that of Lagos expanded? Dude, don't just believe everything you read on blogs because it alligns with what you want to believe in.

Lagos is a city that does not depend on the federal government for money so they were able to survive and grow their economy whilst majority of the states rely on the government so they went down in growth whilst Lagos had a growth rate of 4% the rest of Nigeria was basically negative

Abohboy:
Where is your evidence that he cooked the GDP statistics and you know very well that most people do not trust Nigeria they made sure to do an investigation into our gdp so you do not believe that it went from 500 billion all the way down to 396 billion after a recession that is 104 billion dollars in lost revenue yet he is cooking up the information.

Sorry it's actually 375 billion dollars over 120 billion dollars of revenue lost because we've been cooking our data to make our country look good

Mkenya2019:
Replace American with reputable there are rags everywhere. Anyway UN or WB or IMF do not measure GDP either. They all report what Yemi Kale says. They can offer advisory on how to measure GDP - but every nation's statistics body - come up with national accounts aka GDP - and the calculation therefore. I am telling you Yemi Kale has over-cooked your national accounts.

Where is your evidence that he cooked the GDP statistics and you know very well that most people do not trust Nigeria they made sure to do an investigation into our gdp so you do not believe that it went from 500 billion all the way down to 396 billion after a recession that is 104 billion dollars in lost revenue yet he is cooking up the information.

NairobiWalker:
Jo'burg GDP - $297 billion
SA GDP - $349 billion

Apparently, Joburg produces 85% of SA GDP. I can't fathom what kind of stupid and unlearned you have to be to believe crap like this.

Sorry I made a mistake I didn't properly read the news it said South Africa's overall gdp is 297 billion dollars and Johannesburg is 105 billion dollars, cape Town is 85 billion dollars and Durban is 70 billion dollars. I can show you the images of the reports of lagos's gdp no one is believes the reports the Nigerian government makes so calm down

According to quartz another American newspaper lagos's gdp was 90 billion in 2014 and is now 136 billion dollars this year there is no need to be angry ust because our gdp is higher than yours okay

And we're not the ones doing the cooking it is your power minister who went ahead and did all the cooking of percentage of people connected to the national grid but it was all a lie its fine there is no need for the lies, anger and sadness okay.

rvp20182:
Boss - Financial Times don't measure GDP - they report what Yemi Kale or Lagos governor claimed.

It's an American company they do not take reports from Nigerian newspapers they take reports from the UN, world Bank, IMF etc they were one of the first newspapers to be saying Nigeria is the world poverty capital of the world

Abohboy:
Who's gdp is higher overall Nigeria's who has a port Lagos which country has a larger population I don't think you understand what happens when a country with a population of 200 million people depends on two ports in one city for all its imports and exports and do you not know how much revenue ports create with taxes etc

I just checked now and johannesburg's gdp was 4.35 trillion Rands which is equal to 297 billion dollars as of 2018 it was 99 billion in 2012 so please keep your mouth shut

According to financial times an American newspaper company lagos's gdp is 136 billion dollars and it says according to official estimates we have a large population, a large port, and over 4 billion dollars in investment have come into Lagos in the past 2 years

rvp20182:
What financial hub - when you entire banking industry is 2.5 times kenya and 3 times less than South Africa. What will joburg say . Don't try New Delhi - or Mumbai (GDP is around 210B) - those are big big. But you got nothing on Joburg - financial, manufacturing, minning, transport, tech, name it. And Joburg don't claim to be 100B dollars GDP.
