Who is dicckkk measuring with you? Go and open your own Oni's thread and leave us alone for God in heaven! God!

Hbuyosh:
I see u have been running riot all over this forum, making useless arguments about Nigeria being better than Kenya in "all aspects", but how wrong u are!
The GDP of Lagos vs Kenya........Lagos is a big city of well over 22million pipo, with thousands of businesses catering for the high incomed pipo. Much of the Lagos Revenue comes from the many corporations based there etc. Therefore, it is only natural that a large city such as Lagos, it being the commercial hub of a large country such as Nigeria and catering for the needs of so many pipo (180million) is bound to have such a huge GDP. Pipo in the city of Lagos, just like in the most other cities around the world have higher income per capita than the pipo in the rural areas.

Now, Kenya is a country with only around 44million pipo, around 65 percent of its citizens live in the rural areas. Obviously the incomes of these rural folks isnt comparable to those in the big cities such as Lagos and Nairobi, however it is comparable to the living standards of the rural folks in Nigeria.

Now let us compare the living standard between Lagosians and Nairobians

Lagos State GDP (2016)=$90billion
Population=22million
What is the GDP per Capita of Lagosians therefore?

Roughly $4100

Nairobi County GDP (2014)=26billion
Population=3.8million

GDP per capita rough estimate=$6500

chuxiano:
#2.43 trillion at #305/$1 is approximately $7.97 billion whereas #1.94 trillion at #197/$1 is approximately $9.85 billion. In other words, our non oil revenue shrunk by approximately $1.88 billion when compared to last year figures.

Please lets forget about Ipod/afonjas or whatever names you call yourselves and focus on the real issues and how to solve the problems confronting our great nation. Whether you support PDP or APC, the fact remains that the political class aren't helping matters by dividing us along ethnic and religious lines. They all have their children and wards abroad so if Nigeria fails its left for you and I to suffer the consequences. God bless us all.

You must have a very sad life! Igbos are not your problem, your bitterness is inborn.

Ondo State All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate Oluwarotimi Akeredolu (SAN) has described Asiwaju Bola Tinubu as the party’s respected leader, who he is waiting for his blessing.

KwachImani:
And why should the GDP of over 200 million people be any less than that of only 38 million people?...........Whats Lagos' population and whats Nairobi's or Kenya's population again.
Please stop exposing your stupidity consistently,if any thing, your GDP should be over 3 trillion by now,going by the humongous size of your population.
Argue from a different viewpoint.

jojutolu:
Thank God you woke again, you can do well to carry on with a gainful venture this beautiful monday morning. Protege of Hate!

kenny987:
The non oil revenue they are supposed to be growing? Economic disaster is all these dolts have to deliver!

Some zombies must earn their pay by hook or crook sha. It has come to d point of comparing reports from Punch with Premium Times and d sole deciding factor is d name of d reporter for Punch. An Igbo man doing his job and certified by his bosses before going to print for onward publication is labelled IPOB because his report confirms d dire straits Nigeria has been plunged into by inept quacks in office. What ever happened to focusing on the message n not d messanger?

Just when you think you've seen n heard it all they come again to idiotically shift goal posts, it's now on the basis of the name of the reporter! I pity some kind people cos their own don enter market!

How about your east by pass project? when will you complete it? The Gbongan project, when will it be completed? I am sure o dont even stay in osogbo so u cant see the state of water log in front of the police station at old garage anytym rain falls....Has palne started landing for your mind in Ido osun. Osun deserves the type of leader they got. They are learning their lessons now.

jojutolu:
Those students will eventually bring down those structures to the level of their minds. Go back and check the structures in 2 years from now.

luvinhubby:
And obviously Hadiza Bala Usman is the cabinet minister for transport to you abi?

luvinhubby:
The compared cabinet portofolios, some zombies are drawing analogy with a unit head under the portfolio.

jojutolu:
It isnt compulsory that you put those statements before you passed your message across. You were just being judgemental or prejudiced in your mind.

You responded well.

Can you please as well justify why he has refused to pay salaries and when he decides to pay the half, he still removes the full tax on it?

N.B. - You can choose to answer or not and if you feel it is unrelated to the discuss on ground, or you dont have a tenable answer, instead of overflog the dead horse, you can choose to walk away.

Agencies are under one ministry or the other, stop showing your ignorance to the world

Mailthaddeus:
Educated people should not talk like illiterates, it is disheartening. In this contex, there is no difference BTW ICT minister and minister of Nigeria Communication Commission. If u still check d hierarchy of Kenya's communications, there will still be a Bunmi Okunowo.

It's jst like Ministry of works having several chief engineers, directors and perm secs, and still having a minister of works.

Bifwoli:
Now you're even exagerating / inflating fugures even after the steep 40% devaluation of the Naira .You're led by foolish pride and emotions rather than hard facts.

Bifwoli:
Thats a lot of nonsense .Talking from a qualitative point of view,product output and ICT infrastructure you're way off.Having a bigger population doesn't mean your ICT is bigger or better - India can claim to have bigger ICT than the UK but only a fool would think Indian ICT is ahead of UK just because of bigger population.

In the six-paragraph letter to Kerry, Marino also expressed concern over Nigeria’s anti-corruption war, saying “of additional concern is President Buhari’s selective anti-corruption drive, which has focused almost exclusively on members of the opposition party, over-looking corruption amongst some of Buhari’s closest advisors. Politicizing his anti-corruption efforts has only reinforced hostility among southerners

luvinhubby:
Senselessly silly response as usual.

ehissi:
I am highly disappointed in your choice of words, moreso considering that Nairaland is an anonymous forum, you don't even know who I am, my discipline nor in what capacity I made my comment.

I didn't insult you - whoever you are - nor call you vile names yet you replied my comment in such a rude manner.

I suggested you do your research before you contend further, yet you choose the path of the proud.

FYI, OIIE is just an initiative of NITDA. It is not an agency, it is not even a parastatal, its an adhoc program initiated by NITDA and NITDA is under the purview of Ministry of Communications Technology.

You still believe I am ignorant??
Visit the OIIE official website below and learn who out of both us is.............what did you call me again?.......... embarrassing, Nigeria, humanity and the internet community..

ictinnovation.gov.ng

Office for ICT Innovation and Entrepreneurship (OIIE) is a subsidiary of NITDA with the responsibilities to nurture, cultivate and expand the ICT innovation and entrepreneurship within Nigeria in line with National ICT Policy and NITDA Act 2007.

ayindejimmy:
OP, kindly pardon my lack of polished English language
and address the obscurities below.
what's actually your definition of "all sphere"?
Cos I just can't put that behind me, cos it leaves a pervasive flaw in ur post.
By " all sphere ” would you be including;
education,
sport,
politics,
health,
population,
military strength,
business climate,
entertainment,
Info.Tech and certain spheres that might have eluded me now?

Can you be more unequivocal about ur post?
For a minute, I took you for a Kenyan before I noticed ur name.

If those aforementioned areas are among ur " all spheres" then ur level of information is either grossly inadequate or deliberately inadequate.

And one more thing, I've you been to Kenya b4 to speak audaciously?
Cos I have .

luvinhubby:
Does Bunmi Okeowo have a seat in Nigeria's federal cabinet. ?
