I personally don't think any Nigerian or Kenyan should take it easy when it comes to corruption.This is something above this thread!

Assets like this help diversify the sources of cash necessary to run universities.Universities shouldn't be crying much for money from the government,they should look into ways they can bring in some money before the government chips in!

Attention seeking wh0re,she is mad because she wasn't invited at the African Women in the media conference in Nairobi.She is just an angry baby throwing her toys out of the pram!
TayserMahri:
Because of two things:

1. Nigerians are afraid.
2. The Nigerian journalist lady who started it has to face it alone. Nigerians wont any more take public beatings for individuals mistakes
3. Which is a step in the right direction. grin


This the hoe who started it. Always talking about Kenya since she arrived here and got intoxicated. And wat you saying Kenya is trending in Nigeria at number 4.

Great breakdown
I think we are doing more than 1.1-1.2 million TEUs

Our Mombasa port is constantly under modernization and we are building something larger than it in the name of Lamu Port which will be one of the deepest if not the deepest port in Africa and also one that can handle much larger vessels,talk of the Panamax vessels that typically stretch to lengths of about 400m.The Mombasa Port can easily evacuate cargo from 200-300m in lengths. Anything of about 200m or above in length is a monster ship!
Just30:
"West African ports now have to adapt to handle this increase in vessel-size, or risk losing their relevance in the area. Already, over a dozen West African outlets can or will be able to accept vessels larger than 10,000 TEU. And yet Nigeria lags behind, peaking at ships of 4,600 TEU. As well as the liner trade structure, carriers involved annual trade capacity analyses and the supporting port and terminal developments."

Dynamar, reported that Nigeria's Apapa Port in Lagos (1 million TEUs) lost 30 per cent of its container traffic over five years due to chronic congestion and the poor quality of its services. Tema Port in Ghana with 0.95 million TEUs ranks 2nd, Nigeria is 3rd with 0.92 million TEUs, followed by Abidjan (0.66 million) TEUs 4th and Dakar (0.57 million) TEUs as 5th.
Foreign AffairsRe: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by Jonraid(m): 4:52pm On Jul 24, 2019
In other words,I wanted to know the cargo capacity your ports handled,I'm not so much into the overall port capacity! To say that a port can handle 3M TEUs but it's only handling cargo of about 2.5M TEUs per annum!
Just30:
terminal and 2 has 870,000 TEU

Terminal 3 has 1M TEU soon to increase to 2M TEU
Foreign AffairsRe: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by Jonraid(m): 4:26pm On Jul 24, 2019
What are your current TEUs per annum?
Just30:
The new terminal is scheduled to start operations on 28 June with two berths, 600 m long, plus a small tugboat berth, with a capacity of 1m TEUs per year. MPS also plans a third berth – at 1,100m long – for the end of the first quarter of 2020 and a fourth berth – at 1,400m – at the end of 2020. The terminal will then be able to process more than 2m TEUs per year.

2 million TEU in Tema

Even Lo'me port and COtonuo ports are not kids let alone Abidjan

But what have KLM and other shareholders done for the airline? If it's to get shareholders in a private-government share arrangement then we should get a shareholder that would support the airline fully!

Let's hope this is just but a temporary solution!
kikuyu1:
Was going to post on this! Not a good idea for Parliament to get involved-remember it all began when the MD's so called pay was posted on SM and shown later to be fake. In a fit of patriotism MPs/MCAs/Okada peeps/Mortuary attendants/roadside vulcanizers and other 'experts' screamed for nationalisation. We need to learn to wait for substance in the issue for speaking!
Slightly O/T:Seen akina Rotich in court? What,if anything DID THEY DO THAT WASN'T UNPROCEDURAL? We're told because of him and others the dams price jumped 160 mn$-REALLY?? I know of a similar case of KRA people in Mombasa rushed to court by the DPP/CID who simply followed KBS instructions on a sugar consignment and found themselves charged. Even the judge questioned what crime was committed! Lets,see what exactly the substance of their case is.

We can teach Nigerians to be ambitious! 80 million Nigerians lack access to power!


Kenya, East Africa largest economy has launched Africa’s biggest wind power plant, a project aimed at reducing electricity costs and dependence on fossil fuels, nudging the nation to meet an ambitious goal of 100 percent green energy next year.

The sprawling wind farm of 365 turbines on the shores of Lake Turkana in northern Kenya was designed to boost electricity supply by 13 percent, giving more Kenyans access at a lower cost, President
Uhuru Kenyatta said at its launch last Friday, according to an Aljazeera report.

In Nigeria however, Research and Development (R & D) tailored towards Wind Energy Technology (WET) have been few, slow and not encouraging. The available data have not also been adequately employed to develop physical models that would translate the huge resources of wind to power.

Until recently, what was available was small data system pointing to the availability of wind as a source of potential electricity production within the nation. Basic researches into the act of tapping wind for electricity have been non-existent within the country. This is because, such practices involve funding and such funds have not been available anywhere for access by wind energy researchers.

More so, research tailored towards development of low cost materials for wind turbines and other renewable energy technology applications should begin. This will invariably eliminate the huge initial capital involved in starting Wind energy business and also further reduce the operating and management cost of the technology.

But East Africa’s most industrialised country has made great strides in renewable energy in recent years and is considered one of the few African nations making progress toward clean power.
About 70 percent of the nation’s electricity comes from renewable sources such as hydropower and geothermal – more than three times the global average.

“Today, we again raised the bar for the continent as we unveil Africa’s single largest wind farm,” Kenyatta said.

But one in four Kenyans – mostly in rural areas – does not have access to electricity. Those with power face high costs and frequent blackouts due to unreliable supply.

Nigeria’s electricity access story is not better than Kenya’s. About 80 million Nigerians living in 8000 villages across the country lack access to electricity, a World Bank report had stated.

Mac Cosgrove-Davies, the World Bank Global Lead, Energy Access, had said this during the opening ceremony of the “Fourth Mini Grid Action Learning Event: titled, ‘Up scaling Mini Grids for Low-Cost and Timely Access to Electricity in Abuja last month.

“Kenya is without doubt on course to be a global leader in renewable energy.”

Kenyatta, who has announced plans to move the country to 100 percent green energy by 2020, said power from the $775 million wind farm would help the government reach its goals of ensuring housing, healthcare, jobs and food security to all citizens.

“Today marks an important milestone in the country’s steady march towards achieving self-sufficiency in power production,” said Mugo Kibati, chairman of the Lake Turkana Wind Power, a private consortium that runs the plant at the launch.

Kazikazi:
Kenyan lie again! You said earlier on that your pharmaceutical industry is worthy 1b dollars. Egypt's pharmaceutical market is heading towards 5b annually! Now just 50% of Egyptian market is above 2 billion.Contradictory numbers from Kenya! A billion Kenyan industry is supplying over 2 billion of Egyptian market? What about the total Comesa market?

Have you ever heard of space tourism
Space exploration helps in improving quality of education by encouraging research
Space themes can be used to improve skills of students in science , mathematics , engineering etc
Space technology is very useful in the mining sector


One question real quick does tanzania have schools
