₦airaland Forum

TayserMahri:
Attention? Bruh, Kenya gets more Attention internationally than even Nigeria.

So you are a comedian?Wow I never knew. So you got anymore jokes to tell? Please let them be funny too.

Are you seriously saying Kenya is more popular than Nigeria? Hahahahahaha

So fellow Nigerians. I have a theory. I think I know why Kenyans on this thread just refuse to give up. Attention. Yep you heard that right, they are looking for attention. I saw a Kenyan yesterday on YouTube and he/she? was complaining about how Nigeria and South Africa always overshadow Kenya in Africa. So maybe that's why they are always here on Nigerian matter, taking panadol for our headache. They want attention and it's working. Because I've always assumed Kenya is a state in Tanzania until I discover this thread now I know Kenya is a country, they have counties and not states e.t.c. And they are playing a double game too. Dissing Nigeria and sucking South Africa's d*ick. So I think we should just stop paying attention to them. . So my Nigerian peeps whadaya think?

So you Kenyans still here . Wow. I've got to say you guys are resilient. . If only you'll channel so much energy into creating your own "English" forum where Kenyans can post all the trash happening in your country, the playing field would be level and it would have been more entertaining .
Alas the only Kenyan forum I knew about is mostly in Swahili.

Tylann: You need a break away from this thread. I feel like It's beginning to affect you psychologically. I've been going through your comments and they keep getting darker and harder compared to your earlier comments. I can practically taste your hate for Nigeria. Most people (except the Ghanaians of course ) do not take this thread seriously, it's just a banter thread but for you I feel it's personal. You are always online. You always have something to say when someone comment especially on Nigeria. So take a chill for a while.

forgiveness:
Chaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! How I missed that! Hahahaha.

Slum capital of the whole wide world and hunger capital of the whole wide world. That's a big plus for the Kenyans.

Kibera's even got a dedicated website.

SuperIgbo1:
Argue with Sanusi, who said northerners are extremely poor folks not me.

And, I'm all about Igbo land not regions. These regions were created by cowardly Obasanjo to balkanize Igbo land. I'm not from the SE but I'm proudly Igbo.

so I guess there is no poverty in SE then or as you folks like to say "igboland"?
Anyway don't bother to mention me again coz I done with this conversation your intellect isn't mature enough yet.

SuperIgbo1:
We are different from all other Africans, looooool. Just like the Chinese are different from other Asians. And, Germans different from other Europeans, looooool.

Nollywood is 99% Igbo. We built it after fighting a bitter civil war.

Igbos won Nigeria the African nations cup in 1980, 1994 and, 2013. You remember Kanu Nwakwo's exploits at the Olympics in 1996? He's Igbo. All the football superstars you're hear from Nigeria are all Igbos.

We didn't suffer like south Sudan in 1967 even, with external aggressors at our doorsteps.

Mtisthequbit.
After blaming other regions for Nigeria's failings, they are quick to claim all of Nigeria's success as theirs. I bet if you ask him now about most of Nigeria's achievement, either it was achieved by his region or someone from his region, or his region played an important role. Like I said We know ourselves

SuperIgbo1:
The headquarters of poverty is Northern Nigeria where, people eat from the ground.

Mtisthequbit
See what I am talking about. His region is perfect, no poverty, no Hunger, always blames another region for their problems/failings. I bet if you asked him now about all of Nigeria's problem, he'll always point to another region saying they are the cause. Like I said earlier we know ourselves.

mtisTheQubit:
have met some here an was astonished how they see themselves different from other Nigerians..from movies to business..Yorubas an hausa talk of united Nigeria even though hausa peeps blame everything on the southerners..

But serious if Igbos don want to be part of Nigeria then let them have a referendum an see how stuff goes..May they should learn like you said something from Southern Sudan if its not too late...

Not true though. It's the other way around actually. There is a systematic demonization of certain group in Nigeria by other certain group just because one group are not "enlighten" enough to be on social media or internet platform to defend themselves, so the narrative is extremely skewed. Anyway I urge you to leave Nigerian politics and societal issues to Nigerians. We know how to handle ourselves.

....

forgiveness:
Mr 35 million suffering KENYANS. Citizen of the world hunger capital.

Also include world slum capital. Apparently more than 50% of Kenya's urban population live in slums. And 60% of Nairobians also live in slums occupying just 6% of the land. That's tight or if you want to be generous "cozy".

PissedYagami:
I blame Islam.

Yeah? Then please oh mighty and wise one, enlighten us please on how Islam is the cause of Somalia's clannish rivalry.

tylann:
Yes you don't open defecate in a foreign country
Kenyans don't open defecate in south Africa
Nigerians do
Get it

To me it is about kenya and Kenya alone

So because Kenyans are doing it in Kenya and not in another country makes it alright? I've heard. Kwantinue.

AskiaHarem:
Pretty much, South Africans gloating about the sweat/work of the colonials and blaming others(Africans) for the countries many problems despite the fact they only contribute to no more than 3-5% of them. The country is being called an "Urban Warzone".

Exactly.

tylann:
That is awkward
Who does that anyway

Are you f*cking kidding me? Who does that? What are you claiming? Are you seriously telling me Kenya does not also have a problem with open defecation? Seems like you don't even know much about Kenya you are so proud of. Next time please it should be "my county and my county alone"

And to think that two years ago Kenya's got more tech hub than Nigeria and South Africa almost twice as Nigeria

tylann:
Yes for me everything is about kenya
Kenya and kenya alone
Do you have a problem with that !??

Nah I don't have a problem with, Just pointing it out so that others will know you are not qualify to talk about other countries since everything for you "Kenya and Kenya alone".

For him mind now he's all about patriotism

XhosaNostra:
Enough to reach a solid conclusion.

Numbers lady, numbers. How many 100-500? 1000-5000? 100000-500000? Have you met half, a quarter, quarter of a quarter of Nigerians living in South Africa?

[quote author=AskiaHarem post=76435429][/quote]Are you kidding me, Kenya is above Tanzania in food emergency, Cooked, surely a cooked data

AskiaHarem:
South Africa is already the worlds crime leading filthy shithole though. It's not much else Nigerians can really do there to be honest....

They don't want us to attribute their success to whites but they want to blame other African migrants for their failures.

tylann:
Nigeria is a special case the whole world is against Nigeria

For you, the whole world is synonymous with Kenya so no surprise there.

PolymathDave:
While doing that, don't forget to kick out the 5,000 Nigerian doctors currently in South Africa.

They are not up to 5000 but yeah, South African hospital are understaffed so Nigerian doctors fill in there. They should also be kicked out. And also akin omotosho who produced vaya, one of the best South African movie of recent time, including professor adekeye adebajo who wrote the critically acclaimed "The eagle and the springbok" should be kicked out too. In fact every Nigerian, thief, prostitute, scammer, professor, doctor e.t.c should be kicked out

XhosaNostra:
But many are, which spoils it for the few good ones. Nigerians are lawless abeg. Personally, I have never met one that does anything "legit ".

And how many Nigerians have you met?

sufferNsmiling:
As a nigerian I will testify to what you have seen it is mostly true out of 20 nigerians 2 or 3 are good that is how few the good ones are. Most nigerians believe that it is their right to steal and to do crime

Yeah yeah yeah, the Ghanaian obsessed with Nigeria.

Kur17:
There's a difference between poverty and extreme poverty,

46% of Nigerians are extremely poor

Now imagine how Nigeria is, being the capital of poverty

Proof that 46% is for the extreme poor, and then what is the figure for the poor

tylann:
don't talk about poverty my friend Nigeria is the world leader

True, true, very true indeed
































At least I've never lied about the figures

That someone that said 17 (10?) pct of Kenyans live below the poverty line? Well you lied are mistaken. This popped up on my subscriptions about 2 hours ago.

40pct live below the poverty line

New generations are being born into poverty

Looks like Kenyans are beginning to challenge Nigerians for their market share

rvp20182:
Those are oil waste..from refinieries.Oil will be as dirty cheap as coal.Only few oil well will be profitable.Those in Middle East.The rest won't make business sense.Electric cars, planes and machinery running off renewable grid is the future.Kenya is leading there..we just need to switch of few thermal diesel plants and depend entirely on renewable.

Why did you say only Middle East will be profitable?

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

Remove SA, Africa's growth goes up. Add SA, it comes down. So you see, Nigeria is not the only country that held Africa back this year and last year. Angola is included too.

And you know one thing about predictions? they almost always never happen as expected.

Nigeria GDP was predicted to overtake SA in 2020, it happened in 2014.

Nigeria was expected to reach a trillion dollar economy 2019/2020, it's looking less likely to happen.

Japan was predicted to to overtake US in GDP, now it's struggling to catch up to China.

China was once predicted to hold some of the poorest people on earth, it sounds laughable now.

You can hardly find prediction that happens 100% as expected!

When people talk about how Nigeria's future is all bleak and doom because of petroleum, I was always like "really"?

Yes the world is moving towards renewable and clean energy but they still need petroleum, you know why? Petrochemicals! Petroleum is still needed in production of rubbers, gels, fertilizers, synthetics. With polymerization you can produce virtually everything needed for day to day materials; piping, insulation e.t.c.

So yes, the world is moving away from using dirty fuels but it will still need petroleum for a very very long time.

obaaderemi:
The oil really spoiled things for us especially the core north which neglected everything and dragged the rest of Nigeria down in terms of development stats. If we could still beat a relatively small united country like Kenya in some consumption index such as cement consumption per capita, vehicles per 1000 citizens, and others in spite of the large and backward core north, then Kenya has a serious problem. But I am sure there is no turning back from developing other sectors of our economy now that oil revenue is no longer what it used to be. That time when Nigeria would really leave other African countries in the dust has come.

True words bro. I Keep Praying oil price should continue it's downward trend. And it's not like the core north is poor in resources or the likes, it's blessed too in resources, arable lands e.t.c. but the government just neglects everything. Especially mining sector. Though the government is now paying attention to the mining sector. With the coming online of the gold refinery next year, I hope activities will pick up then.
