You dont even know what industralization looks like. Kenya is industrial giant of East Africa - second only to Egypt in COMESA - for exported manufacturing. Until recently manufacturing was 20 percent of GDP.

Most industries in other east africa countries are subsidiary of kenya

Kenya industrial capacity is maybe 10 folds Ghana.

Kenya is industrial giant in what ? When it imports more than 20 billion dollars worth of everything it needs.

You are second in nothing when you total export is 5 billion dollars..

If manufacturing become 20% of your GDP, you won't be importing more than 20 billion dollars worth of goods.

Kenya manufacturing will only be 1/100th of Ghana

Nkrumah failed - Ghanian expelled him - and he died in exile in Guinea. Nkrumah became a corrupt communist bringing down Ghana economy to it's knees and ushering military dictarorship. Zero Legacy.

Tom Mboya yes was in 20s when Kwame was in his president but Tom Mboya legacy is unmatched.

He was a huge success and built Ghana a successful economy..
Ghanaians did not expell him .... He was on a losing game.


Mboya, just like all Kenyan presidents failed Kenyans and left the country with massive unemployment and poverty which is still continuing today.

They all helped in leaving Kenya with no industrial base and highly import dependent. That's the legacy of Mboya


Mboya will continue to be a failure when it comes to economic planning and execution.

Only a mad person will want to compare a failure and drunkard like Mboya to Nkrumah... The master mind of economic and politics

rvp20182:
I never heard of Azikiwe. You simply did not exist in Pan-Africa movement of them days. Nkrumah rose above all Nigeria uncharistmatic leaders of West Africa.

Been named after dept - while Tom Mboya was right there with John F Kennedy and Martin Luther King fighting for civil rights of black americans.

Tom Mboya address a civil rights rally in US with Martin Luther King

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XQcTPc_OZQ

Azikiwe is above your unknown Mboya who did nothing to improve Kenya

rvp20182:
Pictures?

soon

rvp20182:
Only the ignorant like you dont know Tom Mboya,
Nobody knows Azikwe outside Nigeria.
Yes Kwame is known. Haile Selaise.Nyerere, Mandela, Kenyatta, Lumumba, Sankara - are well known.
But still none of them can measure to Tom Mboya except Mandela.

TOM MBOYA is not known by ignorant fools like most of you.

In 1958, at the age of 28, Mboya was elected Conference Chairman at the All-African Peoples' Conference convened by Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana.

He helped build to the Trade Union Movement in Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania, as well as across Africa. He also served as the Africa Representative to the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU). In 1959, Mboya called a conference in Lagos, Nigeria, to form the first All-Africa ICFTU labour organization.[6]

Mboya worked with both John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. to create educational opportunities for African students, an effort that resulted in the Kennedy Airlifts of the 1960s enabling East African students to study at American colleges. Notable beneficiaries of this airlift include Wangari Maathai and Barack Obama Sr. In 1960, Mboya was the first Kenyan to be featured on the front page cover of Time magazine in a painting by Bernard Safran.[7]

you really want mboya to measure up to Nkrumah but Nkrumah is higher than all things that come from your country...

Mboya was a student to Nkrumah

That's how much less he was

How are they owning when they employ and sell to kenyans. Chinese says - it doesnt matter the colour of the cat - as long as it catches the mice.

One minute you're praising FDIs - next minute - because you have nothing to show for it - you're dicing it.

when all the large companies in important sectors of your economy are owned by foreigners, then they basically run your economy.


The Chinese who told you that it doesn't matter the colour of the Cat are the same Chinese who made sure that foreign companies could not enter their economy unless they partner with Chinese companies while those Chinese companies own the largest share of the corporation..

Guess what, FDI are going into corporation ventures of Ghanaian own companies.

rvp20182:
For last 10yrs - you have lacked development - economy been dead - and your sour grapes are just about starting. Next you will tell us like Ghana about earthquake? Excuses are starting soon.

You're still a poor country. You should be building 100 floors tall building if you had kept momentum like Thailand or Indonseia or Veitnam or Turkey,

Your country if ANC had not messed up would be like this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyWfturzs5s

unfortunately, building 100 floors buildings is not a sign of development and progress... But moving people out of slums and poverty is the real sign of development and progress...

rvp20182:
We have no problem with legal chinese and indian companies thriving in kenya - paying taxes and creating employment - we would definitely send away the Shaolin gang illegally minning your gold and destroying your water sources with mercury within a single day.

Naa

You should have a problem with them owning your economy while your own citizens can't seem to crack it and actually succeed.

AfriqueDuZuid:
He's so into skyscrappers

And here in South Africa we don't lack land for development

If you check all our recent developments it's good beautiful midsized buildings not skyscrappers.

Nairobi needs it everyone flocks there in Kenya, anyway what's occupancy rate of those buildings in kenya

occupancy rate is below 10%

Mostly empty when tourist are not coming... Pouring money into real estate that does not really make money is the only available investment in their country..

Because real estate prices always tend to go up.

rvp20182:
Show me Nigerian companies that have invested in Francophone countries - start with all it's immediate neighberhours - Benin, Niger, Chad, Camerooun.

They have to run to Ghana - past Togo - Accra - because they cannot beat the France. Your are dominated by 1) South Africa and 2) Britain - and Nigeria.

Kenya bank is soon going to be DRC Congo biggest - biggest francophone country - in world maybe - and then we take over rest of Francophone from France - and South Africa orphans like Ghana.

The Nigerians will best answer that question for you ....

Meanwhile your country will keep being dominated by India and China while you call their companies yours

rvp20182:
Nigeria doesn't dominate any country except Ghana. The rest of Francophone West Africa are dominated by France. Kenya has absolute dominance in East Africa - 5 countries - plus few interests all over Africa.

South Africa right now have given up on Sub-Sahara. They cannot hack it - they are running back home. Guess who will fill the void - the nimble Kenyan firms.

Again you don't know anything about West Africa

rvp20182:
Kenya is rwanda biggest investor - it's not just one random big investment - it investment across all sectors. In Sub-Sahara the quickly retreating South Africa is the only competition.

what is Rwanda total FDI ?

Is it not around 150 million dollars?

And yet you want to compare yourself with SA?

NTSA:
my bad ...that's is approximately 5 times.I will post the various faculties in a short while.

Good

You seem reasonable now

NTSA:
my bad ...that's is approximately 5 times.I will post the various faculties in a short while.

hmm

NTSA:
Jkuat is one of the smaller unis in Kenya its land area is approximately 5.95 square kilometers while the biggest uni in Ghana is the University of Ghana (UG) at 11.09square kilometers that's basically twice jkuat size.

Since you have Glaucoma, let me help you out

From your measurement, Jkuat is 2 square kilometers and KNUST is 11 square kilometers...

Well done, now you can tell us how many times that is

I need a space to laugh

Hold my cup of chocolate drink

AfriqueDuZuid:
Google maps footage gives a very good picture of the place.

Again plus we know where 60% of Nairobians live,

The lying bitches will deny they live there

Please dont, you will make them cry

AfriqueDuZuid:
Do you want me to visit Google Maps footage and show you real footage of Nairobi?

You know how selective pictures are so I prefer raw footage

Im even surprised too

AfriqueDuZuid:
Again that's not my home

Again I think the fact that zinc roofing with no ceiling was prevalent especially in people from 50s

Lol I'm surprised a Kenyan of all wanna talk about housing

Shma2020:
Says a Hobbit (dwarf) Neanderthal who lives in a cave and eats snakes and frogs.

Go to bed with your ape like tantrums ...zombie

anyway, how is life in your zinc shack?

A typical one building university

Please don't bring that nonsense here again.

Anyway, why is their congregation held in tents?

Shma2020:
Argue till you turn Ren but facts still stands.

Mku branches.

Can Ghana stand it?

Stick to defending your zoo. Did he ask for your help?

Honestly, How can you say that shack is better than mine? Have you seen my own house? ... Even my parents house are much more advanced than that shack... Infact, my grand parent's houses are far more advanced as compared to that metal house.

Maybe you can compare his shack with your shack. Anyway, no deflection.... I can see you're trying to escape from your underdeveloped universities.

Tantrums of a shack dweller

Likewise ive told you it is not

If you like, prove me wrong...

Except that is not a host but a 1,2 and 3 bedroom apartment....

You can try those propaganda's with your fellow poor Ugandans and not me

Shma2020:
I told you those are USIU hostels. Most investors builds university hostels near the school to cater specifically for students.

A university might also buy a farm outside the school and construct hostel for students. You won't understand that because you're from a mini zoo.


I repeat, Nigeria can't be on the same box with a zoo called Ghana. Nigeria Is the biggest economy in africa and Ghana is not even in top ten.

Stick to your lanes okay? Your lane is Uganda, Burundi, Togo, Somalia, Sudan, Niger etc. You're not fit for big boys budge

Meanwhile, you're shifting goal posts.

His living room is nicer and well furnished than yours



You live in a single room and that is where you cook and do everything...
Worse is the fact that it is a nasty zinc patch

Shma2020:
You did a very big mistake by posting this big head of yours in nairaland. It will punish you till you gain sense.

Shma2020:
Unfortunately, they are USIU hostels.

And please, don't put Ghana name with nigeria... I told you before and I will tell you. Nigeria far beyond that mini zoo.


I repeat, Nigeria plays in top 5 in most indices - economy, ICT mention them... Just like Kenya.

Don't fix Ghana with countries above you. Stick to Uganda, okay

Your own video just proved you wrong by telling you it is near USIU.. about a kilometer from the university..

Keep posting apartments waiting for tourists from Ghana and Nigeria to come and fill..

It would have been nice if it was USIU, unfortunately its an empty apartment sitting somewhere and waiting for tourists from Ghana or Nigeria to come and fill them up.....
I pray your wishes come true and Santa finally delivers

Shma2020:
Too small and ugly for this.

This is USIU.

Now that the comparison has drown his ego he has resorted to mischieves and propaganda

Keep deluding yourself

Thinking thats Cape Coast uni campus

Shma2020:
I was there and I've given you your best. From all pages top to bottom, you'll notice that the entire Ghana is what I've posted below.
