correction LMC with per capita of 1700 dollars.

Even our squarlors are better than your developed urban area of 6 Million people without roads and unreliable eletricity and water supply.

Thanks but we dont compare with this kind of under development.

By the time your country become a full middle income country, we will be a High income country

rvp2018:
We are not developed country. We are not even a middle class country. We are lower middle class country with just 2,000 per capita.

Urbanization requires serious planning and investment. Otherwise you'll end up with Lagos or Kinshasasa. Ghana - where are the urba areas All we see are squalor after squalor.

Let kenyans remain in rural areas until we have created urban jobs by growing the economy further. Unless we discover some serious minerals - it start from agricluture to manufacturing to high tech stuff. We are still in stage one...our economy still agricluture heavy.

By 2030 when we become middle class - I expect we will be 50% urbanized.

rvp2018:
Our urbanization is right where it should. At our level of our development that is exactly where it ought to be. Actually we should be about 20%. The 10% are the guys swelling our slums.

Urbanization is great and something to aspire for. But not slumization like Nigeria.

Exactly with undeveloped countries.



38 Million of your population are villagers smoking wood for cooking.

14.3 Million are urban dwellers and out of this number, 56% which is 8,013,600 are slum dwellers.

well done

attention seeking again?

If you had an economy, 73% of your people will not be rural dwellers burning charcoal

rvp2018:
Again, understand this very simple concept. If you have a well diversified economy like kenya, then nothing can bring you down. That is why we have grown for 15yrs at 6% plus rate. When real estate and construction suffers like now - agricluture has been kicking .ar.se - thanks to unprecedented 5yrs of rainfaill - including a record rainfall in 2019 (exceeding 1961 rainfall).

The problem that you're used to in Nigeria and Ghana - cyclical economic bust and booms - we don't have in kenya - we cannot even relate. This happen if you unbalanced economy dependant one one or two or three sectors..if they get sick...the economy goes to ICU.

[s]Kissing @ss big time. Ghana is still a little colony.

every single time

samorobo:
Lol your Economy can't be growing while your cement consumption is decreasing...I smell Mwangi foul play...the acrid smell is everywhere..

samorobo:
Lol Kenya is one big slum of a country..thanks to that chart for confirming what we've been saying most especially me...it's not hard just look at Mombasa,Kisumu, nairobi (outside upperhill,CBD, Westland) and see what I am saying..
Kenya=slumpolis

dream on

And you will still not match us anywhere
Cause our worse will still be your best

kikuyu1:
The more facts are revealed the worse Ghanas' true situation is. Ethios say just as night becomes day so is truth revealed .

its even funny

Wizzzzmike:
I don't get it when did Kenya became a country to be better than Ghana...lol

I sometimes just dont get how a nation raises multiple generation of fools.
I just blame their education

theenchanter:
for sanity sake, just leave him alone. His madness appears once in a while.

Tell that to you little brothers so obsessed at comparing your little food starving undeveloped North Korea to us.

You need to work hard to be able to associate yourself to us

gallivant:
Nobody is interested in discussing little countries.

They are meant to return to foolishness anytime they are exposed for how backward and undeveloped they are

samorobo:
Fools rant...

You are obsessing about Ghana again?

kikuyu1:
Good you're back! We dismantled the Giant ululations about their 500 bn USD economy with simple comparative consumption stats ie steel, cement, KWHs, cars per thousand, beer etc.
They stuttered and screamed ati their agri sector alone is 100 bn USD, Brazil level! We picked apart that joke and showed how their Stats Gen,Yemi Kale should be either crucified and sacked or crucified and jailed.
We looked at Naij and our salaries and its painful. Fyi, a KA Maj can pay 3 of his Lagos counterpart: same thing with cops, teachers, docs etc.
Mid last year we discovered Gh was just another Naij; just better disguised. They suffer identical socio cultural dysfunctions of slavery like Trokosi, excessive voodoo, contempt for human life, inability to idealise productive labour and other behaviours, a US researcher calls Post Traumatic SLave Disorder; the natural outcome of centuries of slave trading, which while hugely exaggerated was still harmful on multiple levels.

We also found the reason for the natural aggression of SOME PEOPLE who are actually largely Neanderthal. Its genetically rooted in the Original Caucasians who are Ashkenazi(fake Jews), Dagestanis, Chechens and others in a mountain region extending into C Asia. Btw, there are still relict Neanderthal creatures in these parts.

A deep dive into true African history revealed there was no Bantu migration from Cameroon via the Congo to Africa. Instead Bantus were in AE and the ME. DNA evidence revealed this as well as the largely Bantu origin of King Tut and Ramesses the 3rd.

Geniuses have been looping back excessively over these issues which seem to cause rectal pain.

Those are the main points, offhead.

always busting his ass

obaaderemi:
It's a dumb lie. Even in America, the home of Google, it was little known by 1998. And your boy said he was already using Google by then.

It is only in Kenya and North Korea that tall buildings become national pride

I think you know the similarities between the two.

rvp2018:
Tall buildings are source of national pride everywhere except Ghana. The first tall building in Kenya was the iconic KICC. It was the eiffel tower - and I can tell you millions of pictures have been taken around it.

It was built by KANU - kenya's de-facto and later de-jure political party.

KANU was not satifisied with KICC - 28 floors with rotating tower (32).

They wanted to build tallest building in Africa - 60 floors - to mark I think something - I think Moi's 10yr rule.

The problem they wanted to build right in Nairobi's central park. Enviromentalist caused so much ruckus. The project died.

The site KANU wanted to build it - is now known as the freedom corner. KANU regime came hard on enviromentalist but they fought with everything.

Prof Maathai won a Nobel for this and other things.

Abohboy:
Here is the actual story of shoprite, they are selling away their subsidiary which operates all its branches in Nigeria to Nigerian investors

A lot of SA retail companies are closing shops to focus on their home market

Austine1213:
Lol you never gonna get it, you can forget about it


Is Miami on the list?

Is Copenhagen on the list?

Is Budapest on the list?

samorobo:
He is a fool for posting that...imagine a grown up idiot posting how Kenyatta is planning to launch another corrupt scheme to launder money and cash out silently....

Borrow from Chinese to locate water bodies

Let the kid keep dreaming

samorobo:
I will say you will remain a shiitthole..stop dreaming....
I hope you know after your economic depression this year you won't experience a positive growth untill 2024....just30 help him with that link..

Our Squarlors are even better than your 27% urban area of shacks

rvp2018:
We are pursuing rural development on the back of small holder cooperative based agriculture. Urbanization is great if you have jobs like China. You only get such jobs if you go into export led manufacturing. In SSA - only Ethiopia seem to be hacking it - if they can fix their forex issues. I believe with the new dam - they might proof the next China in Africa - cheaper power, cheap land, incredibly disciplined people - they just need to fix tribal differences.

Otherwise what is happening in South Africa - the slumilization of your cities. I belief the slums are growing faster than formal housing. This is obvious because of the anemic economic growth and unemployment.

Be afraid - you might end up like Ghana or Nigeria - with urban squalor.

Abohboy:
Over half the time, China didn’t even build up to half of the roads you claimed Kenya built. I seriously doubt that Kenya has built more roads per year than China, stop spreading lies, we can easily see through them.

Kenya builds only 200km per year

Good luck with your logic

TayserMahrii:
Shows how unserious you are

They will be using the satellite stations with ground base relays
So its possible

Abohboy:
Also I doubt thst they cans provide latency speeds of 25-35 milliseconds, what new technology could they possibly be using to create this, unless I see a breakdown I won’t believe it.

except he is not sane

vankelvin:
Did you read it ?
You just quoted USA Embassy's report without reading? does it make sense?

Didn't you see the report talking about Ghana's Education around 2003/2004/2005/2007 and 2009?

So why would a sane person compare his present to another man's past? You are not well in your head

mtisTheQubit:
just google it mna.
Any ranking from education to military..from Development to beauty kenya is always there...just give somrhting from your place we see...an please support with pics if possible

keep living in your delusions

when you become woke to the realities, hope its not late for your country.

mtisTheQubit:
the bolded...thats the difference btw you an Kenyans..there are normal stuff we dont brag about...just saying

Im not bragging, but you brought it up so i had to let you know that if you are well travelled, you will know your country is fuvked

Unfortunate alzheimer's was the only thing i could come up with for his forgetfulness

obaaderemi:
Buhahahaha, yes I think the cow blood is the cause because that fellow is just 57 years old. His problem can not be Alzheimer's.

rvp2018:
When you heard TIVET (Ghana TVET) you thought we had touched Ghana.
Kenya TIVET model borrows on German successfully vocational training
And is our current focus.
We are done with basic education - 100% primary enrollment - 100% secondary education -
we have changed our education system - 3rd time now to competence based model
We know our education quality is highly ranked and respected.

See this dumb kid

for someone with alzheimers, you should no how to make your arguments so you dont compare yourself to Ghana because most definitely we wont be in the same leagues as the HDI reveals.

1 million children leave your primary schools and only 500,000 enter secondary schools while only 100,000 enters university.

i swear

obaaderemi:
In the land of the blind, the one- eyed man is king.

mtisTheQubit:
Some of us must be online 24/7 but not in nairaland...but you boss ya always here man.dont deny it...everytime i log in ya here...take a break dude...maybe that travel will do you good

good luck

hence why y'all waste your time 24/7 here



I'm a regular traveller hope you can travel so that you wont make useless argument on your country

rvp2018:
You're funny. With tiny memory powered by puny brain fed by rat soup.
This started when TZ fellow attacked kenya tech sector for being led by whites.
I explained to him our focus was TIVET
Your rushed in with 10 Technical universities and I was shocked.
A country with 10 polytechnics.
I checked the high school - first results 700 - from Ghana US embassy
And I was truly intrigued now.

And I went on to discover your education is UNDERWHELMING - right from basic education to universities.

alzheimer is what your problem is


You were so fast to compare your country to Ghana and nigeria in TVET before i responded to you that your country is nowhere near Ghana and Nigeria in TVEt.
Youve forgotten your own useless argument such a dumb human being whose brain have been fuvked up by cow blood drinking.

Our education systems are so advanced than what you get in you wholesale promotion educational system.
They wholesale promotion system in your country is also part of your country problem.

Failures like you are busy just adding up to your useless population

mtisTheQubit:
To be fair Just30 majority of Kenyans try to ignore you as much as possible...sometime you sound likethat maya guy...nags alot man

Its good for you guys

Because you know that when you come my way, i will expose your country

i try as much to ignore you guys because i know y'all dont know shit but you will always bring Ghana into your conversation meanwhile you are nowhere near close to Ghana level.

You kenyans usually sound like your conspiracy youtuber

mtisTheQubit:
Ok then ...but let agree ya on 20/7 here... its good to engage in other stuff man

do you see me sleeping here

You guys sleep here on nairaland deep into your nights despite the fact that it is as late as 12 midnight and 2am early morning in kenya.

Guy I'm not you guys that sleep here oo

I spend for 3 hours online daily after which, my digital well being app immediately shut down my internet to all devices on weekdays.
