vankelvin:
That's how come most of you kenyans fail in your final exams.

Read through the questions I asked you?
QUESTIONS
What of PPP?
What of your Poverty rate?
Unemployment rate?
Your HDI?

Then look at your answer below?
SMH grin grin angry
I'll even go further and post some stats on Kenya vs Nigeria, just to reaffirm the authenticity of this thread. Last I posted on here was about 3 yrs ago.

[center]Economic comparisons[/center]
GDP per capita Nominal (IMF 2021 est);
NGR- 2,432
KE- 2,129
Ngr has a very narrow lead

GDP per capita Nominal (IMF 2021 est)
NGR- 5,280
KE- 5,274
[I]They're the same size[/i]

Median wealth (Credit Suisse 2019)
NGR- 1,249
KE- 3,553
[I]Ke has a massive lead, more than double[/i]

Human Development Index (UNDP 2019)
NGR- 0.539 (low development)
KE- 0.601 (medium development)
[I]Ke has a healthy lead[/i]

Economic Complexity Index (measures how advanced an economy is in terms of manufacturing & exports products)
NGR-> -1.90
KE-> -0.34
[I]Ke has a significantly more complex economic make up[/i]

Global competitive index (the World economy forum ranks countries based on the latest theoretical and empirical research)
NGR- 48.3
KE- 54.1
[I]Ke is slightly more competitive globally[/i]

Long-term unemployment rates (2020 data by respective Govts crosschecked by WB and IMF that discounts short term unemployment)
NGR- 33.3
KE- 2.6
Ke has far better employment stats. But methodology varies by government

Kenya's qualitative economic Indicators are either significantly better than Nigeria's at best, or at more or less similar at their worst

[Center][size=17pt]Educational comparisons[/size][/center]

Primary school attainment rate
NGR- 74%
KE- 100%
[I]Kenya is significantly higher[/i]

[I]Kenya is slightly higher[/i]

Ke is slightly higher

Adult literacy rate
NGR- 59.6%
KE- 78%

Kenya's education Indicators are either significantly better than Nigeria's at best, or at more or less similar at their worst

[Center]Health sector comparisons[/center]

[I]Ngr has much lower HIV infection rates[/i]

Births attended by skilled worker % (UNDP data)
NGR- 43%
KE- 62%
[I]Ke has significantly better natal healthcare[/i]

Kenya has in average better health care with more leads, but Nigeria leads in several indexes.

[Center]conclusions[/center]
Kenya is ahead of Nigeria in all key development aspects. But per indexes, Nigeria does have some areas where it is better, though Kenya is better in far much more indexes.

Generator and petrol fumes.
Btw, have you ever seen a single unpaved road in downtown, riverroad and ngara? Ever seen open sewers there? We want to weed out tourists who use google instead of planes and bundles instead of passports

I have been to most region in Nairobi and I will be back in Nairobi and Kigali by August for a project .
Nairobi CBD is still leaving in it's past glory( only tiny parts can be regarded as averagely developed) , all areas at the back and downwards of Kenya National Archives are rundown(slums) with old concrete buildings, roadless, lack of proper sewage and drainage system , places like Eastliegh,Buru Buru, South C, Thika ..... are regarded as ghettos here in Nigeria.
Buruburu and South C are ghetoes in Nigeria? Huh! Someone smoked some banned substance

-Lekki free trade Zone (largest in west Afrrica) - Dongo kundu, lamu and kilindini free trade zones

-Replacement of Danfo buses with World class air condition buses. - Nairobi Matatus go as far as having screens on every chair, WiFi, air conditioning, etc to attract customers.
-Introducing more free WIFI services in BRT buses and parks - refer above
-Decoration of more bridges and bus stops - decoration of all Kenyan bridges started this March. a fine of ksh 85000 is charged on offenders. But bus stops ain't good
-Mechanised sweeping of Major roads- Already started in by highway maintainance in 3 motorways in Nairobi
-Emergency Helipad service - search HeliHub.com
