Mkenya2019: Tatu city slowly turning into world class city. Meanwhile one in Ghana is dead and Lagos stillborn. You cannot invest in a zoo or mini zoo - and thrive.
Mkenya2019: Unlike Ghana's interchanges in Slums - Nairobi build proper roads with interchange. Not sticking an million dollars of interchange in middle of a slum
I know you like to Measure up to Ghana but at least build better interchanges and not these confused dug outs you build in the slum Capital of the world.... Such a slummy place
Try to build good roads in Nairobi so you can change that roadless place for good. It is insane for Kenya to only have 5% of it roads tarred.
Mkenya2019: Usual donkey fart. Loud but useless. Kenya has not gone belly up. It nearly got there. It run to the hills once she got the early warnings. Ghana continued gorging themselves with Eurobond.
In fact Kenyans came to Ghana to try reason with them - but they were busy shopping for Eurobond in midst of COVID - WHO FCK does that.
Now as we speak Ghana is KNOCKED OUT FOR A GENERATION.
Down and out until 2037. The first bond holder earliest they get paid is 2027. Ghana bond holders are taking huge losses now. Nobody will buy Ghana bonds (maybe short term bills) for QUITE A LONG TERM. You violated a key principle that gov should never default on it's debt - to rebuild trust - wont be easy.
You wont be able to borrow again until 2037 - that means you're KAPUT FINISHED.
Kenya has not gone bankrupt yet finding dollars to buy in Kenya is like finding an eagle? Equivalent to Venezuela Only a lunatic will make these rants.
Why can't you afford fuel and food to import if not for your bankruptcy?
Why can't your govt finance or carry out any developmental project for the next 10 years if not for Kenya bankruptcy?
Why Has Kenya reneged on debt payment and defaulted on Chinese debt AMERICAN EXPORT IMPORT BANK debt for KQ French banks debt for power plants and several others, leading to Kenya being fined several millions?
Kenya is bankrupt and now so reliant on Ethiopia for electricity.. I wonder what you're going to use to pay them 😂🤣
Mkenya2019: Mad cow, if Ghana had allowed brilliant Arthur Lewis time to make his economic policies a reality, you wont be in a hole now.
Nkurumah committed two mistakes - that Ghana gov just cannot get over 1) Over-promising citizens leading Over-borrowing leading to bankruptcy - almost every 3yrs It hilarious. 2) Import substitution - save only for Jerry Rawling - who re-oriented to Export oriented growth. Asian tigers you want to align themselves - became developed world - because they avoid import substitution - and went for export led manufacturing.
Many countries in Africa continue to commit Nkrumah economic mistakes 1) over-leveraging to dish "development" & win elections - creating risk of bankruptcy 2) Import substitution - as it very intuitive and therefore appealing industrial policy
For Africa countries to prosper - it must allow their best economist to design the best economic policies. 1) Avoid too much debt. Dont overpromise to build roads & provide free education just to win political power. 2) Avoid import substitution. 3) AOB
Lunatic rant from a brainless person
No wonder Kenya goes bankrupt every 2 years and run to the IMF. Because your country can't produce good economist, Ghanaian economists have had to run your country for the last 6 years on how to manage your debt and seek for debt suspension for Kenya as the poor country it is
Mkenya2019: I have seen it all here since 2016; Any country that instilled communism - will need serious culture shock (like China one) to recover. I told them dumsor is coming; Their energy sector is owed 1.5B dollars Their broke gov has no such money. The power supply company has no such money.
As usual
Desperate as fvck 🤣😂
It ends today
Kenya should remove the remaining half of that poor country from darkness and then we can talk
Mkenya2019: You can tell Ghana will not recover soon. Not even if they again remove zeros - the seeds of destruction firmly planted by Nkrumah - that instead of instilling hard work on Ghanaians - instilled a culture of Laziness, Apathy and Disinterest - like Tanzania.
Yet food in Ghana is almost two times cheaper than in Kenya.
This is factual by real world prices.
No wonder Kenyans are on the street crying of hunger.
The hyperinflation in your bankrupt country is a loop that you cannot break
Mkenya2019: Mad cow, I use different account like many people here to evade the bots.
Nkrumah was a huge disaster. Below was written few months after the Army kicked him out, invited IMF to work out a bailout. Your country look like a cattle kraal - look at Accra - does it give you a gold country vibe? - you had more gold than Joburg - and should at least look even 1/4 as good - but your entire country - look really whack. Does it look even mildly close to Nairobi.
You morons with LOW IQ after all the brain drain cannot turn Ghana into anything but one of dirtiest, poorest, smelliest country in the world.
This is one of editors who had no economic sense writing on things he couldn't understand at the time.
Both of Nkrumah 7 years development plans were huge successes just like the South Korean development plans were huge successes Economic productivity increased such that it was larger than those of Malaysia, South Korea, China, Indonesia and etc so much so that Ghana was loaning them monies and giving them food . Kenya was one of the beneficiary of free monies from Ghana.
The US and Europeans became so threaten by the success of a black nation and how negatively it will affect their economic thirst for resources at the time hence must destroyed the country with a coup. Do the CIA financed a coup using political figures
vaxx: Another confused idiot who doesn't know anything about Ghana but wanted to sound apt , Nkrumah took Ghana to IMF indeed but he rejected it later on when he discovered the later austerity measure is not in correlation with his fiscal expenditure .
Nkrumah built Tema Harbour , The Akosombo Dam The Tema Estate, Takoradi Railways many factories , universities Schools, Atomic Junction Project Colleges Polytechnics and roads Etc all these are more than the imaginary one billion dollars you said he borrowed . When britain did not leave Ghana anything. The British you are stupidly talking about was bankrupt after the 2nd World War. They borrowed billions from Canada and the U S in the 50s to rebuild their economy. Nkrumah, the legend stopped Britain from siphoning the little that we had. They did not leave us money neither did they do us a favour. It was our money saved due to Nkrumah's own fiscal prudence.
Even at that Nkrumah was able to pioneer other Africa project in the spirit of pan africanism . From Ghana own pulse , Nkrumah built a railway network for Mauritania , built an International airport in Algeria, .give out free cash to guinea conakry for a new nation.
If Nkrumah hadn't built Ghana from the scratch, we would have been doomed like kenya by now.
You're wasting your time on a lunatic who uses two accounts to portray himself as two different persons ... You should not expect him to be sane.
As we speak today, Nkrumah's economic ventures are what is driving the Ghanaian economy.
No wonder Ghana is far developed, progressive and advanced than Kenya. Kenya since independence has not had someone as Smart, Knowledgeable, developmental and with economic knowledge like Nkrumah, before.
They keep running failed policies that leads Kenya Bankrupt and unable to feed itself because of laziness and stupidity. They've managed to build a North Korea in Africa
rvp2018: Two different concepts. Democracy Decentralization/Devolution/Federalism
China has devolved dictatorship by CCP.Thankfully it mostly run by meritocracy.
Democracy at core is what French Revolution gave humanity - Personal freedoms, human rights and equality. -Liberty, Equality, Fraternity - Liberté, égalité, fraternité
There is nothing like that in China. You cant say or do or etc what you want.
But again like I said - that has not stopped them from developing - because it has a well run devolved system of gov based on merit.
Like USSR before - you can have efficient dictatorship - that quickly industralized Eastern Europe.
Jerry Rawling in Ghana run such a system - but culled anyone who disagreed with him.
Rwanda is now example of such an efficient dictatorship.You know better in Rwanda than talk politics - right from the airport you're being watched.
Another set of bullshit
You don't seem to know much about China... As someone who knows a lot about it, I can tell you that, Chinese citizens enjoy more rights than you'll find in most part of the west.
rvp2018: Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia and of course most of middle east are example of dictatroship that transition into proper developed countries - and eventually build institutions.
Dictatorship has nothing to do with development. China is good example of great dictatorship that has developed.
They are NOT mutual exclusive.
Yes of course democratic strong independent institution is great on its own but a country will not go down for lacking one.
Ghana is good example - Jerry Rawlings - eventually transitioned you back into democracy - from military dictatorship.
Rwanda has certain peculiarities that make democracy now and in the future difficult - as minority Tutsi at 10 percent - will simply be killed by 90 percent majority Hutus like happen in 1960s (sending Kagame to Uganda as small boy refugee) and in 1990s.
Rwandese Tutsi have to find a formula of democracy that will work for them - popular vote is an existential threat to their very existence - and Kagame & his successor are likely to have tight control of institution - just like Isreal has to deal with Palestine in Isreal using crude methos.
You're very dumb
China is not a dictatorship.... Infact it is the most decentralized country on this entire planet effectively govern from the very local of levels. It has more political parties in it congress than both houses of the US combined
I'm happy Accra is already a world class city because we didn't make it pavement-less such that we had to go and borrow 300 million dollars to correct a big mistake.
A mistake we weren't senseless to commit 😂🤣😂
All roads come with pavement as a standard practice
rvp2018: Obviously the last three days you've refused to take your medication. No house can be approved in Karen without paved road.
Karen has the most powerful resident association - established in 1940s. For a long time, the min acreage was 5 acres - then 2 acres - now even 1/2 acre is allowed.
Obviously you're hurting but in this day and age, it burst my mind that houses in Karen which is supposed to be the bust part of Kenya, remains roadless and operates pan lattrines
That's beyond despicable. Dworwulo is far better as you can see from the video I posted
Karen, home to some of the high-flying figures in the country including playing host to official residence of Deputy President William Ruto, former prime minister Raila Odinga, former vice-president Kalonzo Musyoka, a large expatriate population, as well as wealthy Kenyans being among high-end home owners, is ranked in the league of the global real estates giants like Potsdamer Straße, Kurfürstenstraße and Gleisdreieck in Berlin, Germany and Sant’Ambrogio in Milan, Italy.
Take you drugs then watch Karen - about 60km squared.
According to the IPPs, shutting down plants remains a viable option if debts are not settled.
ECG has in the last few weeks been embarking on an aggressive revenue collection drive geared at enabling it to raise the needed funds to run its operations and to settle its creditors.
Yet Ghana's power is completely on This is the power of effectively owning the power infrastructure. Kenya should learn this and Israel won't have to sabotage you
