You guys need to up your game
You are playing too local.
We have the most beautiful women in Africa here in West Africa, yet we still dominate the beautiful women all over the continent.

See how these Habesha women seem so happy and fortunate to spend the rest of their lives with Naija dudes.

One conclusión from me.. Nigerian Men are running away from there women.

Lagos turning to a mega city

A city with over ten million should be Mega already that is how behind lagos is...

Nowenuse:
Everyone knows that Abuja is the fastest developing city in Africa.

Rivers state (Port harcourt) Nigeria's 2nd largest economy GDP is equal to Ghanaian economy. 7 years ago, the state was worth about $21 billion and now it is over $40 billion dollars, with a population less than 10 million people.
So we don't boast about Lagos state alone!

FYI, Lagos state has only 10% of Nigeria's population, so i don't see how that translates to every Nigerian wanting to live in Lagos state.

Sad ugly creatures!

I don't know how many time to say this but no one trust those cooked up Nigerian figures.

austino677:
kindly open your thread and post live photos and stop all. These childish act... ... Read the thread title MY KENYA TRIP

Call it child play I call it tourism...

Mombasa for you

More of Mombasa

If this is not a city then PH, Ibadan and Calaba are villages.

Am sorry to invade your page but I had too.

Mombasa

So painful to compare calaba to Mombasa

Come enjoy the beach.

So you telling me PH and Ibadan are better than Mombasa..

Make an effort and visit the City

BedLam:
Okay that's dead wrong! Don't be blind please. No way you can compare port harcourt or calabar to Mombasa.

Am sure you came with the same mind about Nairobi untill you visited... Anyway thanks for visiting

BedLam:
Most East African countries are one city country. So Nairobi is the only city in Kenya. Please if you mention Mombasa, I will tear you hot slap

Mmmmhhh then nigeria then has two Cities only coz mombasa is way better than Portharcourt, Ibadan and Calaba.. Don't mention Kano, its a big Village

Nowenuse:
Hell NO!
South Africa and Nigerian comparison is more like Malaysia and Indonesia, Or Japan and China.

US economy is still greater than India regardless of the size of India, but Nigerian economy is far larger than that of SA, just as Indonesia is larger than Malaysia and China is larger than Japan.

S.A is has the following bigger or better than Nija
1. Manufacturing industries.
2.Tourism industries
3. Telecommunication industry spreading to many countries in Africa Nija included.
4. Retail industry spread across africa Nija included.
5. Mining industry.
6.Financial institutions spread across africa
6. Exports way more than Nija
7. Advanced farming among others...

Now can you compare Nigerian Cities to S.A
Joburg vs Lagos
Captown vs Abuja
Durban vs PH
Pretoria vs Kano
Port Elizabeth vs Calaba
Bloemfontein vs ... just to name afew

In short there is no comparison btwn S.A and Nija..

Comparison is still like U.S and India

naijalander:
naaah I think Naija women are more beautiful than Kenyan women, also much more disciplined. Kenyan women are prone to what conservatives would consider immoral. Just saying.

Hahaha I thought you said kenya only leads in stable Electricty and Fine ladies... what changed?

This level of patriotism?

fanficgirl:
Nigerians don't say we control Africa sit down hater

You don't believe this but you trusted a somalis when they told you they control Kenyas economy ... who is a hater here?

fanficgirl:
Nigerians don't say we control Africa sit down hater

You don't believe this but you trusted a somalis when they told you they control Kenyas economy ... Double standards at it's best.

fanficgirl:
Why do Somalis brag about owning Kenya's economy?

The same way Nigerians brag that they control Africa.

naijalander:
I think considering income per individual and the fact that Naija culture is the most dominant in Africa m, it makes sense.

Haters gon hate nonetheless and it's Naija not Nija.

Income per capita is one wrong measure consideing wealthy ppl like Dangote share thesame income with ppl in makoko slums or Uhuru with pple in Kibera Slums... For me S.A economy and Nigeria economy are like U.S.A and India... but in african context India has already overtaken the U.S.... Only in Africa

DonnieTheGreat:
Yes sir oil accounts for 90% of Nigerian export which accounts for less than 10% of our GDP.

Stop deluding yourself sir!!.
Again let's do the math:

Nigerian economy grew by 0.8% during recession.

Kenyan econmy grew by 5%.

You would agree with me that

0.8% of a $500 billion economy is larger that 5% of a $60 billion economy. so even in recession Nigeria still grew more than Kenya.


But in Nigeria we dont delude ourselves.

Yes sir its a fact all african countries have non Diverse economies...including Kenya

Am sorry to say this but I have never trusted the size of Nija economy I believe its exaggerated. There is nothing that Nija beat S.A and Egypt except population...

You may give all the excuses to make your self feel better bit remember China with over 1billion ppl still manage to grow plus 7percent.

DonnieTheGreat:
Baba Oil exports account for only 10% of Nigeria's GDP. So lets do the math.

Nigeria's current GDP is $500 billion .
10% of $500 billion = $50 billion
$500 - $50 billion = $450 billion.

There you go, Nigeria would still be the largest economy in Africa without oil. Its just that the oil exports which is just 10% of the GDP is our major earner of foreign exchange. So when there is fall in oil prices the country experiences foreign currency shortages which plunges the country in macro recessions. Like this recent one we are just recovering from.

Even as great as that recession was. Nigeria is still projected to grow by 0.8% this year and our foreign reserve is currently around $40billion. thats just $20 billion short of Kenya's whole Gdp.

Kenya too is not so different,
Tourism is your major source of foreign exchange. If something happened to Tourism in Kenya your economy would likely collapse and would not even dream of the recovery Nigeria is currently going through.

So stop all the noise about "Our Kenyan economy is diverse."

All african countries (Nigeria,Angola,South Africa,Kenya) are suffering from this mono economic syndrome where the whole economy is hinged on just one Industry. Its sad but its the reality of Africa.

Good new!!. thing are changing for Nigeria, Kenya and co.

It's a fact that Oil accounts to over 90% of nigerian export. It's also a fact that most African countries are suffering from mono economics..

When the oil prices went down Nigerian and Angolan economy were straggling very much at some point the economy almost de-grew.

When kenyan economy was heat hard by Alshabab the tourim industry almost went dead but the economy still grew plus 5%. To me that is what it means to have a diverse economy.

BedLam:
No. that post was when I was in Nairobi. Do Massai go school ?
If you have preferences it should be between IPhone, Samsung or Google Pixel. Otherwise, its opportunity cost. Feel me ?
By the way, who doesn't like any of this I mentioned ? Unless you can't afford it.

You maybe right,Keep give your opinion
at times you need an outsider to know your reality.

Nowenuse:
Kenya is not as big and diverse as Nigeria. The single and stupid state govt (Borno state) were the cause of what the whole Nigeria suffered. They failed to alert the Federal govt about this issue when it started from the scratch, not until it has escalated and Boko haram had had a very strong base in one of the forests in the state (Sambisa forest).
Although, we may not blame Borno state 100%. That state is the largest or 2nd largest state in Nigeria and has some of the deepest and most vast forests and terrains in Nigeria. It is also the gateway to Chad, Sudan e.t.c Travelling across the length of Borno state can take up to 10-12 hours. That's to tell you how large the state is.
To worsen the case, our Nigerian army, security intelligence e.t.c is all centred in Abuja (a day or 2 days journey from Borno state).

So you are trying to say Alshabab is a child play to Boko Haram...
1.Alshabab were controlling a country and not astate
2. They were fighting against Somali forces plus Amison troops..meaning they were more stronger
3. They had access to the sea (Kisimayu ) meaning they could get any artillery they wanted.
4. They had better finances from pirates, Charcoal export and sympathisers across the region.

I believe Alshabaab were stronger than those Bokoharam

BedLam:
To the guy who said Iphones is a thing of Indians , I think that's not the reason. It's a thing of the rich and middle class. An iPhone is over a 1000 dollar here and I don't know how many Kenyan students making that.

You expect to see Maasai ppl with Iphone or what... I believe every country has its own prefference

forgiveness:
Cameroon, Benin, Togo, Ghana, Ethiopia, UAE and South Korea among others. These are places I have been to.

So, I know what I am talking about.

You don't sound like you have or it never taught you a thing...

Most travelled ppl always have something to appriciate or learn about other areas. I will never talk shit over for a city like windhoek no matter how small it is to Nairobi but the quality is up there.. Most kenyas respect Kigali Rwanda just for thesame reason.

forgiveness:
Hehehehe! Ethiopia, Egypt, South Africa and Nigeria.

You sound like aguy who has never left his village town, all details you know is what you were told or read.
