With its plan to lease 40,000 hectares
to Qatar, Kenya joins the growing
number of poor nations that are
granting their potential food
production land to oil-rich countries.

The development comes even as the
Government declares an emergency as
close to a third of the country’s
population faces starvation.
Vaxx was right. As far back as 2009 Kenya was actually begging the Arabs to take part of its land for growing food even as Kenyans starved. But I guess the Arabs lost interest along the way. What would these Kenyans not rent out to foreigners? They can even rent out their wives and daughters. grin

You don't do it by visiting non competitive country , why dont you visit TZ for rural elctrtricty access or ruwanda for nuclear technology or south africa for national service scheme . you do it with a successful country not the one you are better off.

When Ghana found oil, she didn't went to Nigeria to study how to manage the new fund wealth , she travvled all the way to Norway which is assumed to have the best practise in that sector . you learn from the best practise not the country you are better off.
Correct. Norway's Sovereign Trust Fund is the best in the world.

You can go and confirm yourself, you expect me to rush down and start snapping?
You buy local rice and you're still asking me to go snap pictures, I guess you usually travel to Mars to buy it.
The high price is because of demand and supply factor and with time, it would stabilize and start dropping.
Most of them are very stupid. He buys local rice and he still wants someone to show him proof that local rice dominates the market. The thing about Africans is that they would rather eat poison from abroad than embrace their own stuff. It's why Africa is a joke.

Good point. I don’t disagree with any of that but even though their conquest was on pause, their ambition was and is still alive.

Ojukwu also refused to play the dumb nigger role too which seal the fate of Biafra.
Why else do you think the British supported the fall of Biafra? The West is never comfortable with third world countries trying to rise above their station. Remember America and Cuba?

Don't mind them. The sarkin guy wrote absolute rubbish. Since the borders were closed, imagine how many tons of local rice which would have rotted away, that Nigerians have consumed instead of imported rice.And chicken too. How are we ever going to develop our agric sector if we keep importing stuff we can produce here?

So can you explain in your own veiw for supporting the border? let's have a civil discussion.
Even if it's only for the stemming of rice smuggling through the borders into Nigeria, many Nigerians support the border closure. It's the best thing buhari has done. You can't believe how much local rice we now consume.I was in an upscale restaurant on Friday and the rice served was local rice. Very tasty. I remember when the oba..aderemi dude was arguing With the Kenyans about rice production in Nigeria. Not long after that long argument, the border closure followed. I am starting to believe that guy could actually be a powerful government man! But a funny and playful one. grin

Nigeria has been ranked the third largest recipient of foreign direct investment in Africa, data from Ernst & Young has shown.

The EY Africa Attractiveness Survey 2019 Report, which was launched in Lagos on Wednesday, showed that FDI inflow into Nigeria stood at $8bn in 2018.

Egypt was the largest recipient of FDI in 2018 with $12bn, while Algeria was second largest with $9bn.

Then explain why the north is far poorer than the south. It is not about a southerner being in charge at the moment. It is about the south having the political power that the north has since independence. A lot would be different.
Of course Nigeria wouldn't have been at this level. That's the fact.

YourArewaSister:
It is amazing how some of us see the North as the originator of all of Nigeria's problems while whatever is going on in this country is simply the resultant effect of lack of leadership and patriotism from each and every part/region of this country!
No one sees the north as the originator of all of Nigeria's problems. But then the truth remains that the north has contributed more to the underdevelopment of Nigeria more than any other region. Which region has the highest number of illiterates? Which region has the highest number of out of school kids? Which region has the highest number of poor people? Which region has the highest number of people dying at childbirth and childhood? Which region is more wracked by violence and killings than any other region? Which region has the highest number of displaced people? North! North! North! grin All of these negativities cast a bad light on Nigeria as a whole and not the north alone.

YourArewaSister:
Each and every one of us should blame his regional leaders. Has the North forced any person at gun point to join in under-developping Nigeria? The leaders from other regions mortgaged and are still mortgaging the future of their unborn generation because of greed!
Your enemies are not northerners but rather your leadership! The North does not pick your leaders for you.
Of course all our leaders are bad nation wide but then the level of incompetence in leadership in the north make others look like angels. The north does not pick leaders in other regions but the north has turned itself to the crippled child that the other regions have to bear. I wonder,why you northerners are not ashamed of this little fact. This is the reason why the north is at the bottom of all developmental indexes in Nigeria.

YourArewaSister:
[url][/url]
Our common enemies are our local leaders and not the North. If the rest of the regions is so smart and knows what the problems are, how come they are still under the stupid/uneducated northerners?

For one region to keep a whole country hostage for 59 years, it shows how smart that region is.
If the north were smart it wouldn't be the cesspit of backwardness, disease, poverty and illiteracy that it has become. The north is where it is politically all thanks to the British. grin

Yes,our common enemies are our regional leaders but despite the fact that all our regional leaders are thieves, at least the other regions have at least forged a semblance of commonsense in the administration of their regions which has given their people living standards above what the north has. The low standard of living in the north has contributed seriously to the menace of terrorism which is now no longer just a northern problem but a national problem! I wonder why some of you can not see this obvious fact!

YourArewaSister:
So I implore all of the Nairaland slayers of the North to leave it alone and get involved in their local politics to help move their regions forward!!!!
We are,already involved in our local politics and that's why we are at least ahead of northerners in terms of living standards. But then the truth will always be spoken. For Nigeria to achieve progress as a country, then all its regions have to play a progressive part. Terrorism, crass poverty and illiteracy are hardly progressive parts, and sadly these negativities the north is known for do not seem to bother you people. This is exactly how you continue to underdevelop Nigeria. Your embrace of backwardness.

Haha... That's true though.

No matter how much the 'Indian Kenyans' claim to be citizens... They'll still export their forex to ghandi town!

Indians always have this air of superiority around them too... They're many here in Nigeria and trust me when I say these guys are racist I mean like real racist.. They also know we don't really like them... But our dear government would still go ahead to collect bribes from them.. Smh

I think countries like Kenya and South Africa need to be liberated for them to really enjoy their country... They're living in subtle BONDAGE on their soil fam!

I watched on CNN some years back that the youngest millionaire/billioniare in Kenya is an INDIAN!... Doesn't that speak volumes?

I'm just grateful to God our dumb government didn't allow this happen over the years.

You Kenyans Should Fix Up Your Life!
This is so true. Nigeria has probably more Indians than any other African country and many of them have roots dating back to the 19th century but somehow they don't dominate and are not so ubiquitous here like in Kenya.Our ever- versatile businessmen are even buying up their assets.The WemaBank building in Marina used to belong to an old Indian family.

No one from the south south should be complaining again about bad governanace. You had your shot and it was completely pissed away.

It is now a fulani northerner cleaning up ogoniland. A fulani northerner building the Niger bridge. What did your super leaders do in six years? You should be ashamed to point fingers at any region.
I am not from the south south, bro. And again, yes- the south south is neglected big time. Government agencies such as NDDC and OMPADEC from their antecedents are largely siphons for public funds. What has ever been done to foreign oil companies polluting the Niger Delta? When a true son of the Niger Delta, Saro Wiwa stood up against this, we all remember what happened. GEJ that you mentioned was a throw up of the crooked Nigerian system backed by the same north we are talking about. And no matter how we look at it, on average the Niger Deltan is still better than the northerner. Check literacy level, healthcare delivery and poverty levels, Sir.

PoliticalWitch:
I used to beleive in all this 'North underdeveloped Nigeria' ish...until I actually started reading why developing naitons are developing, and developed nations are developed.

The problem with Nigeria is , when we got independent, our economy was based on one model...exporting raw materials to the West, and using the income to import stuff. And it is that economic model we have been using, and which we have not made any effort to change...instead we argue about how to share the limited money using terms like 'resource control', 'it is our oil', etc.

Another problem is that we exercise price controls over sectors like power and petroleum. In the name of subsidy we throw away 2 trillion naira per annum. We also heavily subsidse power...and this leads to the stifling of growth in the power and oil sector....who is going to come and invest in a sector where prices are controlled all the time.

Then what is the no1 business model in the North and South? Importing stuff and selling it. This depletes our already scarce forex revenues, and makes the economy worse.

Then there is this idea that manufacturing is rubbish. We all like to praise Innoson and Dangote...yet we don't want to be like them. We want to go into business importing stuff, and selling so that we can have a fat bank account and a house filled with imported stuff.

So what can we do to develop. Well....stop subsides in the oil and power sector. Yes, prices for power and oil will shoot up, yes millions will suffer...but investment will flow in, and jobs will be created. And production will icnrease...and we would eventually become a manufacturing society.

And no, I am not defending Buhari. Buhari self has refused to stop price controls, his broder controls//closure is just treating symptoms without treating the disease, his security polices are bad...and let's be frank, he has refused to remove subsides because politics. And let's be frank, if Southerners take over....the same thing is going to happen. (GEJ privatised power...and then made things diffiuclt for the DISCOS and GENCOS by bringing in price controls.....something that many Nigerians hail him for...but won't tolerate if the government extended the same favour to their own buisnesses.).

Honestly, the reason why Nigeria is not developed is because Nigerians want a free lunch. There is no such thing as a free lunch. And Peter Obi was right...we have to be like China if we want to grow....together or separate.
The reason Nigeria is not developed is a failure of leadership.

Why are you dodging the point? Did the South south not pioneer, commercialise and demonstrate the viability of kidnapping as a hustle? Can you go easy on the hypocrisy and self deceit that whatever region you are from is an utopia and not also a shithole in its own right?
If the south south started it, they limited it to their region. Did they go to other parts of the country to kidnap others? The south south lays the golden eggs the whole country shares and yet their region was neglected for so long. The Fulani's on the other hand spread their menace around the country. That difference speaks to the topic.
