Were they laughing at the joke or accent, it is probably both. We find your accent funny! He comes here often because he is invited, comedy is a big money business here. We even invite Ugandan comedians, where's the big deal?
Daejoyoung:
Taysermahiri, blackboys, here's Basketmouth in Tanzania and Kenya and Kenyans loving the Nigerian accent... Note that with pidgin the joke comes to live but even with English, he is still articulate. Do you have Kenyan comedians who can make West Africans laugh by speaking just English?

I think the designs of the houses in Kenya is way better, not huge monstrous dull inselbergs they call homes in Naija-look at these pictures from Mbagathi ridge! The more trees and lawn, the richer you are I think!

A train traversing the vast Coastal Plains Of Kenya.The Railway track is elevated not only to cut the gradient of the rugged terrain as one starts cutting in towards the ‘upcountry Kenya’ but also ensuring free passage of wildlife. The concrete supporting beams holding the rail in some places go as high as 50 meters above the ground(The Mazeras super bridge) The longest bridge being 2.7 km(The Athi River Super Bridge) Most parks in Kenya are found within the plains,e.g The Tsavo East and The Tsavo West National Parks. We do care for our wildlife this much! Thumbs up to the Kenya Wildlife Service for making sure that our wildlife would be pretty safe even as we try to better our infrastructure!

A zebra( pictured below) passes under one of these railway bridges. The bridges ensure uninterrupted migration of animals across the park. Impressive!

The Forbes top 2000 companies in the world.China and the US dominated this segment.

In Africa,SA leads the park, Nigeria comes second with with two companies then Kenya with only one company.

South African companies in the list are;

1.Standard Bank
2.First Rand
3.Sasol
4.Naspers
5.Sanlam
6.MTN Group
7.Shoprite Holdings
8.MMI Holdings
9.Remgro
10.RBM Holdings
11.Bid Corp

The Nigerian companies are Dangote Cement and Zenith Bank.The only Kenyan company featured was Safaricom with an estimated market valuation of 11.1 billion US dollars.

Who is the real giant of Africa? Us Kenyans with only a paltry 88billion dollars GDP could at least get recognition with Safaricom which only operates in Kenya and it's profits coming only from Kenyans.

I really expected Nigeria to go neck to neck with SA but wow!they disappointed! I still think that SA is miles above Nigeria.SA is more richer than Nigeria and that's a fact.

400 billion plus GDP? Really?
