The 770m jetty, fully funded by the Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) is the largest of its kind in Africa, with capacity to load and offload very large vessels of up to 200,000 DWT carrying all categories of petroleum products including crude oil, white oils and LPG.

That's a lie

It's not even among the largest in West Africa let alone in All of Africa ....

When will you guys stop making absurd claims ?

Shma:
Of course, retail sales should come first for any retailer. But here, we're talking about the consumer - the majority!!!

In this sector, quality matters for consumers - quantity goes for retailers.

we are talking about the economy.... To the economy, sales is very important..

To the consumer, availability of goods comes first...

Shma:
Why are you extracting data from your p*ssy? Where is the link for GDP (INT$ at PPP)?

Your PPP per capita is 5000 dollars despite your tiny population - you only edge Kenya in pp per capita due to your insignificant population.

Get your facts right on GDP per capita. I gave you pointers.

You can't even handle facts

See how you're having a mental breakdown .....

You Kenyans are suffering from Mass Formation psychosis...

You are really funny oo.... PPP is not about your population but your productive capacity using exchange parity...


My facts are right on GDP per Capita and only a Lunatic will argue facts.

Shma:
Retail contributes to the economy but it does not equate to the economy.

Retail space is more important than retail sales - this is not rocket science.

But for me, it's quality over quantity. I hope understand what mean.

Retail sales comes first to any retailer .... They know they will most definitely get a retail space ..


Now you are running to quality and quantity argument?

It doesn't even play in retail

gallivant:
I will ask Samsung and Dangote if they prefer to move their products in open air markets.

Samsung makes more money in Ghana than they will ever make in Kenya .. same goes for Dangote.

The only open air markets in Africa are currently sitting in Kenya...

Shma:
Check out the IMF data.

https://www.imf.org/external/datamapper/index.php

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_African_countries_by_GDP_(PPP)

According to the International Monetary Fund, the four top African countries posted GDPs of more than $500 billion (INT) in 2020:

Top 10 Richest African Countries by Overall GDP (INT$ at PPP — International Monetary Fund 2021)
Egypt - $1.38 trillion
Nigeria - $1.14 trillion
South Africa - $861.93 billion
Algeria - $532.57 billion
Morocco - $302.77 billion
Ethiopia - $298.57 billion
Kenya - $269.29 billion
Angola - $217.97 billion
Ghana - $193.63 billion
Sudan - $189.87 billion
In terms of total GDP (PPP INT$),


Your PPP is insignificant.
Our per capita is bigger than yours, if you use 46m with our current GDP - $109b.
Employment rate means nothing - I can be self-employed but earning more than the employed.

Ghana PPP is almost 300 billion dollars in 2022 and was almost 230 in 2020...

Ghana PPP per Capita is 8800 dollars while that of your country is around 4,500 dollars

Ghana GDP per Capita is 2500 dollars and that of your country is 2000 dollars ...

Now go and learn

gallivant:
Your country has as much retail space as that
of Blantayre Malawi. Your retail capacity reflects on your retail space, not bush markets and tantrums.

Even Tz retail sales is larger than that of your country ...

And guess what, you guys have almost the same population size

One of Africa's largest Ship Yards and some of the most preferred on the continent, after Shipyards in South Africa, Egypt and probably Morocco and maybe Nigeria..

PSC Tema shipyard .... Been in operation since 1965 and handle 578 vessels in 2019.

A country with 2 malls is not even in the race, forget about competition.

Shma:
We're in 2022, Let's see the e-commerce data. You can dominate in retail sector but you won't have a say in retail space, which matters most in 2022.

Retail sector does not equate to economy

ask any retail company what matters most to them and they will tell you that their sales matters the most.



Now you are claiming retail does not equate to economy because your retail sales is tiny ?

Just look for what gross domestic product is and you'll see why retail sector is one of the most important.

gallivant:
Retail sector? Can we start with retail space first, retail companies etc. Retail sector is not something of the lip!

First of all

Your entire retail sector sales can only be compared to that of Ivory Coast ...

No more noise here, Despite the fact that your country population is almost twice that of Ghana.

Shma:
Ghana is tiny underdeveloped sh*ty country with nearly half our economy. Our retail sector is the biggest in sub-Saharan Africa after South Africa and Nigeria( population-driven)


You have bigger PPP than Kenya? .. It's high time I remind you we're in 2022. Your purchasing power is nowhere near the big 5. Maybe Ethiopia can have a say.

Your retail sector is only competing with Ivory Coast our neighbor at around 10 billion dollars in sales .... That is how small your economy is...
Yes we have a bigger PPP, bigger GDP per Capita, a higher HDI, a bigger disposable income, a tiny unemployment rate.....

How can your tiny economy not have all of that and you want to compare with us?

samorobo:
Can you imagine the olodo fool. “Fdi is inside your gdp,Fdi is the power of your economy “

Shma:
FDI is inside your GDP - FDI is the power of your economy. Kenya has a bigger economy than you. Don't be a dunce.

how do you have a bigger economy than Ghana when Ghana has a bigger retail sector than your country ?

Ghanaians have more disposable income than Kenyans and a bigger PPP?



Unless you don't know what a bigger economy or it is just on paper.

gallivant:
Where is the link? Nobody is falling for the bs..

let me give you where you can find info ... Since you are interested...

Go to Ghana gas website.... They have almost 800km of pipelines carrying products to customers..

Go to VRA and BOST websites.. the two have a combine more than 4,000km network with a new contract ongoing to build addition 900km .....

Information is available at your finger tips

theenchanter:
lol, he's trying to manipulate ur intelligence not knowing u're smarter than his class teacher will ever be.

He hasn't gotten the fact that I don't play to their sentiments.

Shma:
He politely disrespected you. A comprehension problem is what is doing you.

he didn't

He basically described what tourism is... Unfortunately you didn't get it

You then made it an investment Convo and I pointed to the investment facts and you are still rampaging

Shma:
Those were never my sentiments, hobbit. The person who boldly claimed that your country is not real is a Nigerian, I was just emphasizing his point - because I saw how you humbled while responding to him.

I can't take any disrespect.

you seem to have a comprehension problem ....
Go and read again, brainless Kenyan ...


We were talking about tourist just being tourist and your incessant need to compare with Ghana compared your country to Ghana in investment .. and now that I've placed the investment facts to you...

You've quilled your tail in between your legs to finally think about your irrelevant country..

Shma:
the

Ghana is one of those sh*tholes that believes in stomach. You'll never see any serious investment in that country. Tourists visit ghana to see those rare species of humans but go to relevant - real countries to do investments.

yet Ghana received more investment in a year than your country will ever receive in a decade .....

Is it because your country is not a real country?


Ghana govt yearly infrastructure investment is twice of yours .... Make your statement make sense

rvp2018:
Great. That explain it. Now is the Nigeria 5K plus pipeline fuctional? And why do you have fuel shortages, and such fuel adulteration it shocking.

Why did the UK have fuel shortages last year


Why did the US experience fuel shortages last year .... They all have in the hundreds of thousands of kilometers of pipelines...


Your thinking capacity is not holistic

rvp2018:
The usual madness. Put a link and we can take you seriously.

Just shut up and go and sleep....

You will never catch up with countries that consume more petroleum products than you in anything about petroleum

GeneralDae:
That one just speaks from his ass. He sees a new thing in Kenya and assumes they are the first in Africa or the only ones besides maybe South Africa

it's just lunacy

rvp2018:
Kenya has almost 1,800 kilometres of refined products oil pipeline. Nigeria, Ghana and TZ (?) zero. Although we still have a long way to get to South Africa level - I think by 2015 we had about 1,600 petrol stations - about size of Gauteng - but we definitely the regional kings - supplying fuel as far south as Zambia - and far north as South Sudan.

From Kipevu oil terminal, risers each dedicated to a separate oil product and six onshore pipelines each dedicated to a separate oil product connecting the terminal to the Kenya Petroleum Refineries Limited (KPRL) and Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC) storage tanks.

you really like to compete with Ghana .

For your information.... Ghana has almost 6,000 kilometers of product pipeline and over 230,000 metric tonnes of product tank farm storage capacity on the Volta Lake for product transfer to northern Ghana..

BOST and VRA have been laying pipelines even before Kenya got it independence....

Yeah ... the tourism trap

CSTRR:
Good for Ghana, but there is a trap to be avoided.

The carribeanization of Ghana.

I personally wouldn't want my country to be carribeanized.

Where people just come, have a good time for a short while and then go back to real countries where they carry out their economic activities and make money.

Tourism is good, but don't stop there.

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
Just 30 let's talk business and me and your Ghanaian people I was just watching a documentary here in Brazil about the Volta river and dam, the documentary was very interesting, is it true before the construction of the Volta Dam the area was believed to have more gold than Ashanti

The dam lies behind the Akwapim-Togo range of mountains and the entire stretch contain pocket of gold collection

Ghana is always fun in December

Accra has set it self up as a Dubai for holidays

rvp2018:
You're in 2017 - we did that debt swap - that is just sealing the anus and hoping to stop the Ghana like choleric diarhoea. Give it one more year - the shit will hit the fan again. Operational cost will exceed revenues - and new debt will rise.

I'm waiting for the year that people will stop dying from cholera in Kenya

rvp2018:
Lol. Yes the gold coast can probably afford that Lego city bridge if they curb gold smuggling.

now you've turned into a comedy act

gallivant:
Are you speaking on behalf of Air Ghana, because you can save your opinion for other extinct airlines in West Africa.

obaaderemi:
Kenyaairways debts would frighten off anyone. SAA about ten years ago was where Kenya airways is . Debt ridden.

no one is coming closed to this level of debt

samorobo:
Can you imagine?

I'm even laughing

Lunacy

nairobi is not even more developed than Kampala and you are already talking about a highly developed Casablanca?

Shma:
Narrow the topic, let's focus on the mains - before your minuscule brain cells burst out of the heat.

Cities for instace;
Anyone will tell you that Nairobi is more developed than Casablanca. With their ancient buildings, Nairobi is doing modern skyscrapers & low rise buildings..

Lagos with bigger GDP than Morocco can't defend itself, or can you?
