Mkenya2019:
We get this nonsense that Kenya is focused on Nairobi. Nairobi is growing on it's own momentum. Other cities are also growing in Kenya.

You think we would have built 3rd largest sub-sahara economy by chance?

Mkenya2019:
Pure nut case. Kenya is top 10 in global good. Kenya has always been well known. Not only as only UN HQ in the global south, as the Oasis of peace in war torn Africa, as one most progressive countries, Nairobi is now literally the HQ of Africa - competing with Joburg.

As for Nigeria - you're known as corrupt enclave that generates thugs and drug dealers. You probably the most infamous country on planet earth.

Kenya rise is not "new" thing..Nigeria and Ghana recently emerged from 40yrs of military dictatorship - and rejoined civilized nations. Both countries became democratic - 2002 - 20yrs ago

South Africa did well under Mandela - from pariah state - they expanded regionally - and became a force to reckon with - and post-Zuma they are going down.

As for Nigeria - apart from Goodluck and Obasanjo - your Buhari and your former military leaders are butt of jokes.

AfriqueDuZuid:
Because the tend to think others are not making any progress, they are improving yes babysteps

Fact is their urbanization rate is 28% half of those in urban areas lives in slums. Paved network at 20k km, etc

Same way people think Rwanda is advanced, while it's countries like Namibia, Botswana are doing the most for small countries

Kazikazi:
which wildlife?
Most of those wildlife u see are Tanzania's animals from Serengeti national park. Even the amboseli national park cant survive without Kilimanjaro national park

obaaderemi:
You need to understand that Kenya is a small unimportant country. It was for decades seen as nothing but a hunting ground for white people, at an era where global attention was being paid to countries like Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa.

The country only registered again on the world's radar when Barack Obama, a biracial man with some link to Kenya became president of America.

Their economy is small with nothing of significance to contribute to world economy plus the fact that the country wasn't producing people that made news on the global stage, and also no earth shaking events were taking place there.

AfriqueDuZuid:
Mozambique is managed by SADC, this Rwanda story is just France and Rwanda PR stunt

South Africa is always africa mouth piece, from G7, G20, WEF, BRICS,, etc even now with terms of covid, we already have infrastructure for medical enhancement but we choose to advocate funding for kenya, Rwanda, Ghana Ivory Coast etc to have such.

You seem not to be aware of SA businesses and companies in DRC that's why you tend to think when your small businesses enter DRC, it should be something worth celebrating,that it make national news in your country

samorobo:
Pls let me know when Kenya hits this level. We are diversifying and also industrializing gradually. I give it 3 more years and our economy will be very solid and take a sporadic unprecedented turn.

I mean we are tapping into mining,gas sector,a train is being built in kaduna and will see transfer of Chinese technology on train production in the next 2 years. And now we have aircraft production. I say we are nailing the basics. Watch out africa,watch out.

FalseProphet1:
You're right...

Same was the case with Garuba lawal until he retired, and the crazy thing was that lawal was making the fist 11 starting line up, despite the fact that there was nothing special about him.

The North will always want a representative in the super eagles.

This I have seen.

barcaboi:
Man brought okoye and some others; the man wasn’t that bad.

Emperormartin:
Musa will still make the team even under Eguaveon. In fact lemme burst your bubble; musa will go to the World Cup if Nigeria qualifies.

See eh there’s sth you guys don’t understand about Musa; he’s not there on merit; he’s representing the northern region whose numbers in the National team are becoming slimmer on each new day…

Kriss216:
You're right.

He chose finished Ighalo and rusty Musa over these young bloods.

Shma:
I can see somebody waving at you ... Is that your friend?

Mkenya2019:
Nairobi Expressway - at 76.3% completion - all structural work to be done by end of the year - and road to be opened in April. Incredible pace. This will be done in almost 2yrs.

SAMWISE94:
So because i can't travel freely to other countries from Ukraine, that makes Ukraine a dead-end? Lol. What's the big deal in applying for visiting visas to other parts of the world?
Abeg...kindly carry your bad energy comot.

Just30:
This is the kind of bad roads Chinese contractors give Kenya after siphoning all the money through the looting Kenyatta family dynasty ..

Roads that cant be distinguished from dirt path

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
Please note from here on the pictures are me some from Lagos some from ibadan.

Tomorrow I do not know if I can do the Show because I'll be extremely busy I have three hectares of French potatoes to harvest.

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
Let me explain something to you it's not the cars are on the road is very bad can you put a brand new car on the road when did 1 km there are 60 portals it is just better to buy a old one and put it on the road you have to look at the logistics. A new cars most of them are computerised and computerized gearboxes and automatic gearboxes which do not like potholes a truth at all go and do a research. The worst Road for a computerised or automatic gearbox vehicle is bad Road the gearbox will not last at all so it's just better to buy a old donkey and put on the road which can enter all the portals

Mkenya2019:
Once you go into an inevitable civil war - we will send AID.

kikuyu33:
Speaking of which rmbr our driving in the 90s? I was a regular on Nakuru highway and rmbr once crawling along a typically foggy July morning tailback near Kijabe. Suddenly a bus with full lights horn blaring passed me so close in oncoming traffic I felt the slipstream.
That was normal Benways bus style! Those guys were MENTAL!? IIRC they'd race with competing Obuya bus ro Kisii 450 km to Kisii. Sometimes the turnboy would drive, goddammit! THIS was the era bus crashes would kill 30-40 every 6 months and even 80-90 in at least one horror smash a year

I was overjoyed with the Michuki rules.

You still see stupid ISHYT on our roads but not that CRAZY ishyt. Imo if half of our CSs had his productivity and determination we'd be at Saffa levels economically by now.

EVERYONE else he brought that same energy to the hotel sector and built Windsor resort. Alas! The kids have fked up that place with inheritance squabbles.

Mkenya2019:
We have been busy for last 4yrs offering AID-In-KIND or technical support - by showing you what a barren non-mineral economy can achieve - but obviously we are dealing with extremely daft people.

Hopefully many of you can realize just how messed up your country is and become change agent like SufferingAndSmilling.

Otherwise if you remained deluded that NIgeria is the GIANT of Africa - you will continue to sink deeper into poverty, chaos and eventually civil war.

Mkenya2019:
I am sure in about 30yrs - we will be sending AID to Nigeria. It's inevitable. You're definitely going to be human pests for a long time.

Mkenya2019:
Honestly if Oil has not helped Nigeria - maybe Nothing will

Mkenya2019:
We already knew that. I want you to do something about your country situation. Otherwise all of you just want to immigrate and never go back to Nigeria.

IronGalaxy:
Nigeria is supposedly rich too..yes. no?

Mkenya2019:
Your country need prayers. If you check any road circuit video of kenya - you can see the cars are newer - not south africa new - but decent

Mkenya2019:
Of course - Kenya police can send USSD with your number plate - and in a second knows if you have done annual vehicle inspection or not - and detain your car for being road unworthy.

For drivers - you log into road safety website - book your car in any inspection centers annually - if your pass - you get certificate

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNLljdAUaCc

Your country is a ZOO. It not only poverty capital but the gov basically has no capacity to control Boko Haram or even handle traffic duties.

Mkenya2019:
It's more state dysfunction and collapse...anything goes...

In kenya - no only do we have strict import controls - any commercial car including taxis have do to annual inspection to make sure they are road worthy.

Those road unworthy vehicles pose a danger to everyone and the enviroment.

Mkenya2019:
They have stone age cars - because there is no import age restriction - and there is a lot of smuggling. It shocking see the kind of cars on their roads. In kenya it strictly 8 year (more like 7yr old) car - no compromise - and in future we want to move to 5yr old car. Even Uganda now have 15yr rule. For Nigeria - these guys are driving cars last seen in 1980s and 1990s.

IronGalaxy:
In SA you still see proper cars even in poor neighborhoods so im still somewhat lost

IronGalaxy:
n all of your pics why is that I never see proper cars like your BM's, Mercs. VWs etc, its always these run-down cars that I can't even tell their brands...is this state in Nigeria?
