Hailed as the “Kenyan technology success story”, many have claimed M-PESA to be a testimony to the greatness of the East African country’s technology scene, producing world-class technology companies that rival those in South Africa. However, is the acclaimed mobile money service really Kenyan at all?
The answer is no. M-PESA is British.
 Patent: 2007, Vodafone Group Plc Mobile Account Management.
By any stretch of the currently available facts, the service that accounts for more than 60 percent of Kenya’s GDP in transactions was conceived by British professionals. The company commissioned with developing the idea, Sagentia, into a workable technology was British. Additionally, the company that owns the intellectual property rights to the idea, Vodafone, is British and, lastly, it was funded in its initial stages by the British Government.

tylann: Native black Kenyans own a lot in Kenya i don't know who told you native Kenyans own nothing The Kenyan govt invites anyone to invest in kenya nigerians included Dangote ranway himself But most of the big businesses in Kenya posted here by your brothers are either owned by Politicians, lndians, or the British. Dangote is just one man/company, there are Nigerian black owned investments in Kenya like Zenith Bank and lnterswitch for instance. Some may not be big in Kenya, but they have branches everywhere and are multinational companies. |

rvp20183: Isreal has more Nobel per capita. Per capita is everywhere. It mostly implied but when comparing countries - it first principle. Per capita is too simplistic a factor to be used for stuff like this. For example, in Nigeria some of the best swimmers would easily come from the ljaw tribe in Southern Nigeria, but they are not even amongst the majority in Nigeria. lf they win awards for Nigeria tomorrow, it would be useless to measure their no of awards per capita, just like you also say your athletes who win gold all the time are usually from a small part of Kenya, and they beat the U.S without even having to bring the per capita factor of both countries because it's unnecessary. So the truth is that Kenya has better runners than the U.S(and it's evident, per capita or no). Brazil have more football awards than China, India, and the U.S, we don't also need per capita for that. lt's same with entertainment as a whole. This is why your logic here is absurd. |

rvp20183: Then US has better musical award per capita - awarded by Americans. You're obtuse. Awards per capita, oh my God( in olamide's voice). |

Ibrahimanis: I jumped to awards and popularity because you said japs are better, so if they are better then surely they should have more awards and recognition.
Psy Gangnam Style is not English yet it is one of the most viewed music videos. Music is a language itself. So your argument about language is moot. Exactly, despacito has over 5billion views on youtube, and we are 7 Billion on this planet, with not more than 5% Spanish speaking music lovers. Those who understand Spanish would tell you the lyrics of the Despacito song is nothing to write home about, but the world doesn't care. Music speaks it's own language. |

Ibrahimanis: What facts? Tell me 
I swear if you can name 50 Kenyan companies in Nigeria, I will stop arguing, I will convince my Naija brothers here that Kenya is better than Nigeria, I will do everything you say  Even if he names the ones by lndians or White, he still wouldn't get up to ten. |

Ibrahimanis: Then why are they not winning awards, why are they not popular, I am 100% sure that you know more Nigerian artists than japs. 
Music and movies are not something you own in physical sense, so no way in hell you can measure per capita, maybe a number of cars produced in a country per capita? Good and fine, because you can say one individual to one car but a single music can be "own" Downloaded a billion times.
Guys please take note, someone said Japan's music industry is better than United State's. lol, very ridiculous arguement from the Kenyans. |

rvp20183: Facts is South Africa companies are rolling your private sector. They can't do that in Kenya.
As for 100 companies - when I start listing don't come crying saying they are Indians or white owned. But but that is the truth, they are usually Indian or white owned. |
Foreign Affairs › Re: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by Daejoyoung: 12:53pm On Dec 26, 2018 |
rvp20183: Japan - has 130M - US 350M - so US has to beat Japan by nearly 3 times - it beat it by 2 times (going by your data) - so Japan music is better/superior than US - US has larger music industry.
This thread is not about LARGER (quantitative) - it about BETTER(qualitative). lnteresting, so simply due to per capita factors, the UK has a more qualitative music industry than the U.S  |

Ibrahimanis: No longer if but when. We shall see how you are going to be like Dubai when turkana oil starts production. 
And since you are very fond of per capita, did you by chance measure Nigeria's oil production per capita too  lol, they measure Beer per capita, entertainment per capita, Sports per capita and may probably even measure tourism per capita as well. |

rvp20183, l think though Nigeria earns more than Kenya in even the tourism you brag about, l believe if we factor in tourism per capita, Kenya would again do better than Nigeria there as well  |

lf you can acquire lT skills, it would be worthwhile, also certifications related to your field. But for now you must sort out the accommodation ish, and l believe that's a major headache for you right now. You said nothing about your parents or relations, but if you must rent a flat( no matter how cheap) then you must have a constant source of income( at least). Forget about masters, and practice worthwhile skills, or go into business( which would not be easy, but which l prefer to Masters, except Masters outside Naija). |

Kur17: Nigeria just like Somalia and DRC are the blacksheeps of the family, esp Nigeria.
Africa(minus nigere) will have a average GDP growth of over 4.% in 2018, but you add Nigeria it dilutes the momentum to 3%,
Minus Nigeria, there's 400m poor people in Africa, when you add Nigeria to jumps by 20% to 500m
By the year 2030, 90% of poverty incidence will be in Africa, 40% of that will be from Nigeria alone A 1% growth for Nigeria is equivalent to a 7% growth in Kenyan GDP, so this is very little growth that adds little value. The truth is... Africa is not growing or making real progress. Kenya and many African countries should be growing at 10% minimum. lt is always easier to grow a lower GDP, and this creates the illusion that Africa is growing as she should. |

rvp20182: That is when military took over and you got a relief only after Sani Abacha overdosed Viagra.You gov and economy has not diversified from oil.That why you're in bad shape and were in recession recently.Oil future is dim and so is Nigeria future. Oil was not the singular cause of the recession, but it was a major cause though, we only need a leader who can implement tax reforms and diversify Government's source of income, and this oil thing would hardly lead to a recession. |

rvp20182: Again you're burying you head in the sand.This thread is perhaps the most intellectually stimulating in nairaland.I stroll once in a while to check your domestic thread...very depressing.Kenya is progressing and the evidence is bare.I know you know you cannot undo the tribal and religious difference that hobble your country.Moi our former was dictator was right to recommend splitting Nigeria into two.Just wait for oil prices to crash and you'll get the music.You gov will be unable to pay debts or salary..the military already demoralized will take over..and then civil war will start.Pray for oil. There was a time oil sold for as low as 15 dollars in the nineties ( when we were even more dependent on oil), nobody died then, so why now? Now we have even a more developed Banking, financial,telecommunications, transportation and mining sector, Our private sector is now even way bigger than it was in the eighties and nineties ( though the seventies were much better ),Stick to what you know my friend. |

TMKsouth: NL threads in general are anti-SA. There's a concerted demonization of black S. Africans in Nigeria that needs sorting out asap. Well all we get from the media about SA is that they see virtually almost all Nigerians as the enemy. South Africans on social media accuse Nigerians of crime all the time and since Nigerians are usually not in the business of correcting wrong notions of myopic generalizations about them( especially from fellow black Africans), they can only express their disgust on sites like Nairaland. So the truth is there seemss to be a general hatred of Nigerians and misunderstanding of Nigeria as a whole by South Africa, it is the South Africans who are anti Nigerian. |
