And what is this? How are the lives of these northern Kenyans like?

I have seen the kind of lives most Turkanas, Samburus, Somalis and other northern Kenyans live, believe me, I was ashamed to be an African when I saw what their lives were like.
One or two isolated projects don't mean anything.

There is no single city or viable commercial centre in the entire northern Kenya. That is what I call real marginalization.

That's just so arrogant of you to think you know what is best for these people.These are nomadic people they don't roll like you their wealth is herding cows so money/cities are a distant thought to them .Its akin to going to Fulani herdsmen and telling them to move into Jos, Abuja or Ibadan to be modern yet that is not what Fulanis value.Go see the kind of bloody tribal wars they fight over cattle rustling then you'll know where their values are.Stop being so presumptuous about people you know so little about.

gallivant:
Let's hope it's a veterinary hospital.

Nooo that's just " normal" here in Naija. Remember the filthy mattresses they laid for athletes at 2016 Lagos City Marathon?

Biglittlelois:
Not bad actually, live and let live.

Yes exactly Biglittlelois.

It stinks of great hypocrisy for Nigerians here to express fake dismay/aghast yet Nigerians have their own famous IndecentStar King TbakHoc making filthy films with so many women. Nigeria also has well known ritual killings yet these things are okay in their eyes?

ChiefSweetus:
Ethiopian Air is probably the best I've flown internationally. Great in-flight food and service. Had a delayed connecting flight, took us to Addis - complementary hotel and food (although the hotel food was tasteless lol)

The Addis hub is also fantastic. MMIA and Nigeria is a joke compared to their country's aviation system which accounts for at least 10% of their GDP I imagine.

Kenya Airways is very discriminatory towards Nigerians. Sub-par service/aircraft from Lagos to Nairobi. Subsequent connecting is usually an upgraded aircraft. Flew an AMAZING 787 from Joburg to Nairobi only to be put on a smelly and rickety 737 on the onward to Lagos. Trust Nigerians, flight was delayed over an hour because people refused the double standard (people coming from Dubai, and other connecting hubs who had just stepped off better planes reserved for more profitable routes whites and Arabs. The discrimination against Nigerians and the subsequent ruckus was very very embarrassing.

That's a very nonsensical and misguided opinion/view of the airline.Any aircraft they use on this route is not exclusively for Nigeria destination &
Nigerians - the aircraft used flies further to Accra ,Dakar ,Abidjan carrying other Africans not just Nigeria as their final destination.Does this mean KQ discriminates other west Africans too? You clearly don't know how airlines arrange their flight schedules.

Obakuso:
Wake up Africa

This is the New Africa

Actually is the other races that are closer to monkeys than black people.

They all have smaller lips like monkeys.
They all have straight hair like monkeys
They all have pale skin just like you see in a monkey when you scratch their bodily hair to look inside.

Black people have none of these monkey similarities.

So guys tell me here please , is this how these people can afford all these mansions from internet scams?

AmazingELixir:


How come ladies are the closest observers to the naked country boy....is it that the young man's joystick is impressive compared to what they're used to or they've never seen the magical protrusion between a man's groin that is capable of overriding logic and reason whenever it's in heat.....

Lotsa ladies are secret perverts look at them deriving great pleasure looking at and taking pics of a young man's manhood and humiliating him.In my high school one girl was caught red handed after she made a usual habit of covering her head inside her sweater 's holes to stare at some boys sitting across from her wearing school uniform shorts.Then on Sunday's she'd be at church like clockwork without fail.

Obi1kenobi:
You made this statement below to contradict a point I made:

It's meaning is clear as day. Had you even perhaps referred to only Hong Kong, you'd still have been wrong, but not ridiculously wrong, since Hong Kong's autonomy comes with unique benefits of only independent nations like its currency, but it still lacks the sovereignty of an independent nation. But you made a generalized claim that "the word autonomy refers to independence". Which is arrant nonsense. And then rambled on with irrelevant points about how Scotland etc don't have their own currency, as if anyone was ever arguing about that. What does all that have to do with the simple fact that autonomy and independence are not the same thing?



The very central theme to this thread is that Kenya is a more developed nation than Nigeria. Your Nairaland existence since then has been almost
entirely devoted to contradicting that. If by a host of metrics about HDI, poverty rate, literacy rate, inequality, life expectancy, infant mortality
etc Kenya consistently outperforms Nigeria in most international metrics, what then are you even arguing about here, or do you simply enjoy
reading yourself? Because if you "acknowledge" those things as you claim, then the entire premise of extending this thread interminably makes no sense. Is Kenya more developed than Nigeria or not?



What "cheap" shot? I posted about a recent experience of mine with the Nigerian police. You made a snide retort basically telling me that it's not the forum's business (as if the story is something private). I pointed out evident reality: that the only reason for that churlish, juvenile response is simply because I made it about the Nigerian police.
I've already stated my premise for my claims about Nigeria's corruption: it's borne of my experience of the rot in every sector in the country. Simple. The amusing thing is with your outrage about it, one would think I disparaged Norway's corruption record, rather than Nigeria, a country ranked 148th out of 180 in the TI corruption perception index.

Looool ,i've always found it funny and hypocritical when Nigerians use the huge population when it suits their advantage then they wanna disown the same population when the facts ,indexes and numbers don't add up to their qualitative and other advantages.

Like George W Bush once said "you're either with us or against us" . If i was the nation-state called Nigeria i'd be ashamed and disown some folks who only use me when its suits them and when i'm in dire straits they know me not.

1. Nigerian youth team misses IAAF World U18 Championships in 2017 .

2. Nigerian football team to Rio Olympics gets stranded in Atlanta.

3. Nigerian Super Eagles fans stranded in Russia July 2018

4. African athletics teams get standed in Lagos July 2018

Conclusion -there's a deeply ingrained culture of disorganization in Nigeria. Organizing for International sporting events is a Nigerian weak link.

TayserMahiri:
One of the planes carrying athletes to Asaba from Lagoon. Duct taped over the engine presumably so that its pieces dont fall off.

Naija should at least stop playing with other nations' lives like this. We understand you dont value human life over there but in other African countries people do take life very seriously.
And paint or wash the freaking plane!

We will be sending our own KQ jetliner to pick our athletes from Asaba. We don want them boarding those flying coffins again.

Add today's collapse of part of the venue Stephen Keshi stadium in Asaba this embarrassing safety mess.

Sagana, central Kenya

Is Sagana in Muranga or in Nyeri county? Fine houses ,i haven't been to Sagana since my sister left high school a walking distance form this town.

Masama:
What a gory sight!! RIP to the dead

Why always Nigeria with gory accidents? Its very hard to see such sights after accidents in the western world.

The owner of mast must developed the village like London.
They don buy market .

Those brown roof mud houses are envious of the well painted mast full of modern gadgets

Daejoyoung:
Again for the last time ( tired of repeating myself). Population is a major ingredient influencing GDP growth( or a factor in a large or small gdp) but GDP by itself is not measured based on population? Do l still need to break this down or do you want to google?

No no that's a major lie from a fake "kitchen" economist.

Norway ,Sweden ,Netherlands etc have large GDP's yet they have small populations. High or low Productivity based on the big factor of human development is the real determinant of how large a GDP can be.Don't let a huge GDP like India's or Philippines fools you coz those nations are low productivity GDP 's.

kratosonofzeus:
mad people everywhere

Respect to him at least he's not a pretender.

Haven't you seen that photo of a room full of ladies as artists drawing an impression of naked man yet all of these "upright artists" gravitated towards just one body part?

Jay254:
I believe pamoja tutaenda mbali kushinda chuki na ukabila, kila jimbo inchini lina shida tofauti tofauti. Tuhubiri amani chuki haiwezi saidia.

Tuhubiri amani and a healthy respect for rule of law too.The moment we create big demi-god politicians who abrogate established civilized norms of redress for their grievances its very dangerous.Only when rule of law is widely respected that's when you'll have true lasting peace cuz everyone will fear being held accountable later.

mtis:
As for me an myself am loving it...Take it as show of freedom of expression.. Great democracy we got ain't we??

That's a very unfortunate and dangerous statement. We can't all defy the court system rulings,defy electoral commission results and then stage an unconstitutional swearing in disguised under "freedom and democracy".

Countries have governance systems for a reason -take your grievances to court,lodge complaints with or against the electoral commission,file appeals ...that kind of thing.The moment everyone takes laws into their hands and rents massive crowds to defy the constitutional route then you're inviting a dangerous monster of laws of the jungle where politicians feel very powerful that no govt can hold them accountable .

Uhuru Kenyatta,Odinga ,Weta,Ruto ,Kalonzo - all of them should also be subject to the law equally none of them is more important than the security of 45m people.Don't disguise dangerous stunts under "freedom and democracy" bcuz no freedom anywhere is absolute,Even USA and Germany Japan -all nations can limit some personal freedoms where national security is at risk.Don't invite Rwanda '94 genocide or risk another 2008 bloodbirth under disguise of "fighting for democracy" cuz the moment everyone does whatever the hell they want ,its over you won't have a country anymore and its gonna be war and bloody mayhem...it seems we never learnt from the pain of 2008.

TayserMahiri:
Just to alert everyone that we have two presidents in Kenya so you better know who you referring to when you say president

But we still cool. We can donate one

This nonsense need to end .No cosntitution has a place for two presidents and there's no legal standing or international recognition for odinga's idiotic move to self swear.

Africans need to end such stupidity its amazing to see so many believing this folly has legal weight and real functions .No wonder we'll remain being called sh1holes and treated with scorn cuz we just ain't serious on anything or respect int'l norms .Sad day to be African.

meant4all:
that virus nearly killed my cyber cafe business in the year 2008/2009.

I passionately hate this man he's too greedy and too selfish he thinks Kenya revolves around his quest for power.

1982 he led a coup 120 dead ,2008 he incited and 1200 people died,bsinesses destroyed and thousands displaced and now this madness even if he's not recognized and its against the constitution and int'l diplomatic impossibility.He's a total cancer he needs to go.

Mzansian:
I'm curious;


Kikuyu1, TayserMahiri


Odinga or Kennyetta?

Uhuru Kenyatta definitely.

Don't listen to those who lie that "Odinga wants to take the country back to the people" and " change the status quo".That man has no vision,he's a checkered bloody past ,knows not how to build up its always tearing this,boycotting that ,protesting this and endless 24/7 politicking.Kenya needs a builder like Lee Kuan Yew not a bloody minded power hungry perennial protestor who's always out to make the nation ungovernable ,ruins the economy and always bring the country to its knees if he doesn't get his way.

Mrfixitxtech:
Them hate Nigerians no be small.

I totally disagree with the last guy,the Nigerian names Seegse.

Merely belittling other Africans is so much different from the huge criminal act of killing.Those two can never be equaled.

Arsenalholic:
Op sha, you sef no try...

You just handpicked the bad comments first and padded it with a few good comments. I was on the website yesterday and there were lotsa matured Zambians who commended the Eagles and admitted that the best team won.

But someone made a statement that rang true: He said Nigerians are fond of tongue lashing other African countries in an arrogant way. The guy even mentioned Nairaland. That's the reason he was dishing back all of that.

I remembered clearly when we last visited Zambia and a report of how the citizens were happy to see Obi and co, someone here on Nairaland said something so appalling about Zambia girls.

Point is, let us learn to respect other African countries. Because they are trying.to dish back to us what 'we' dish to them... And there are a lot of


loopholes to attack Naija from.

Going by the rough and rude culture of surviving Lagos (at least thats what i hear cuz i've never been there) ,the Igbo vs Yourba vs Hausa fights here and the looklng down on other Africans i've witnessed on nairaland i can say whoever wrote that particular comment is not far off the truth.You're spot on ,respect yourselves.

enemmo:
. The tune sounds like Kenyas tune.

What the hell are you smoking? Kenya's tune is a far cry from this overcopied version of South Africa's own anthem.Maybe you could've said SA and Tanzania then you'd have been right.

kstyle2:
Zambia has the same national anthem as south Africa

Technically that's not true.

The tune is the same,but the words are totally different ...same tune as Tanzania's anthem. Finland and Estonia also share same tune but lyrics are different.

Hehee, story.Kuku inaua haraka kuliko beef.Mafuta wise.Siku hizi carnivore iko down.You need to tour some Brazilian place in kilimani & Westi.Variety zimejaa.Crocodile etc chenye unataka.Hizo za West Africa,tufiakwa.Hata nyoka ni bush meat

Haven't been in Westi or kilimani in ages labda nitapotea ...but good suggestions nonetheless.

Noooo bwana ,nilitumia Imgur lakini photo inapotea maybe it Nairaland itself perhaps?

Pidgin2:
But why are so many Kenyans on nairaland? It seems you people are in awe of our countr, you always want to identify with anything Nigerian I have never thought of subscribing to anything Kenyan talkless of a Kenyan blog or forum. We appreciate your presence here, learn from our good parts and discard the bad

We are in awe of North Korean military ,but not the country itself.We admire Congo's vast mineral wealth but few Kenyans would venture to live there or be like those Congolese .

Why are there so many Nigerians living in Kenya while the opposite isn't the case? You're just lookin for an excuse to pamper you ego - just bcuz

folks have a like of one aspect doesn't neccesarily mean people are awed by "the whole"
