Mkenya2019:
Why dont you look like South Africa? Why does your cities look like Nigeria? Like it just recovered from a nuclear war. Brown rusted roof with informal traders in every little space.

SA and Ghana have different way of living ... In what area of development do you come close to Ghana... In every area of development, Ghana only come second to SA.

Or have you forgotten your economy is largely informal and worse of all, those conditions are terrible than Ghana

Mkenya2019:
Which part of North Korea look flashy compared to South Korea. You cannot hide wealth in data. It manifest itself.

are you asking me? Have you seen both capitals ?

Exactly... You can't hide behind empty apartment to claim make noise .... Your power consumption will expose you just like how north Korea look dark and the south is bright. Like the 5 fold difference between Ghana and Kenya power consumption. Accra alone consumes more than half of Kenya power consumption.

That's a 5 fold difference in standard of living ... It's the fact that you guys cannot afford to live in standard properties beyond those slum scrappers

Shma2022:
Also, Middle income in Kenya accounts for 44.9% of Kenyan population ---- that is around 23M there about.
Ghana is doing 13M .. FYI.

I and the south Africans have already showed you that the middle class in Kenya is only 5 million people by using data ... You can refer back to that conversation... No need to throw empty words around

Shma2022:
Living standards come hand in hand with life expectancy. If you live long, you're happy and eating healthy - and of course enjoying good security(security requires huge investment). Living standard is not about how obese you're.

Thus say, ghana's life expectancy is 3yrs below Kenya's.

The current life expectancy for Kenya in 2022 is 67.21 years, a 0.39% increase from 2021. The life expectancy for Kenya in 2021 was 66.95 years, a 0.39% increase from 2020

Ghana's living standard is 64yrs.

Thrash as usual...

This fool does even know what living standard is and is confusing it with life expectancy. Which is an expectation base on assumption

Mkenya2019:
Accra long failed the eye test. It's why you got pulled into this conversation and we have come to know your economy is sick. You can cook data but cedis is showing your dust.

Since you got independence your cedis cumulative lost against the dollar is 150,000!!!!!!!!!!

Nairobi failed the quality of living standard test which is the most important... While North Korea may look flashy than South Korea because it seek to impress visitors with empty apartment for tourist, South Korea is more wealthy and it people do not face yearly starvation and they also live in better conditions.

We have come to know the Ghanaian economy to be more resilient and had withstood 3 years of turbulence and still standing strong while Kenya runned to the IMF 2 years ago and still facing the hyperinflation effects.

Mkenya2019:
My reply got chewed I guess by robot but I think you should ask yourself that question - and figure out how kenya is climbing to 120B dollars based on coffee and tea alone. When you look at say Nairobi - and Accra - with all oil/gold - what do you see?

if you look at the living standard of Kenyans and compare it with Ghanaians .. do you see an equal comparison?

While half of Ghanaians are middle incomers, only 5 million Kenyans are middle incomers. That is a gap that makes your tea and flowers valueless in affecting Kenyan wellbeing.

When you look at Nairobi and Accra.. you see a thriving society in Accra and you see a struggling society in Nairobi

rvp20182:
Is that why you cedis is now 150,000 to a dollar... remember you redominated the cedis,removed four zeros and peg it to a dollar..now it gone 15 times down..and you can bet income has not risen 15 times... unless you gov or private sector increase salaries.Youre just another Zimbabwe or Zambia

desperate as usual ..
No wonder the price of cement in Kenya is same as that of Zambia ....
To be buying cement at almost 9 dollars is just insane.
Rice at 10 dollars for 5kg and other basic stuff.


No wonder 44million Kenyans are now poor

vaxx:
the consumer price index exposed them . It is way to much expensive to live in kenya than in Ghana . Factoring Accra and nairobi only .

I just decided to check retail prices in their country to compare it with what exist in Ghana on basic stuff and the mess I saw even surprised me. And I started asking how and when they went through such hyperinflation to get to where they are today, where most Kenyans can't afford food anymore.

vaxx:
kenya staticians institution is highly politically influence , who knows if that is the exact figure ? Cus consumer price index keep exposing them..

For example , you can still have a good meal in any standard restaurant with just two dollars in Ghana (about 28 to 30 cedis ) I doubt it will happen in kenya. I have checked on common food outlet like KFC.

Basically... Kenya is a true reflection of a zoo

Even junk like KFC cost a finger to get.. you can only wonder how many kidneys it will cost to get a boutique meal

rvp20182:
14.60 Ghanaian Cedi for a dollar.
Focus there.
And try see if you can run away from Ghana to Nigeria; they are at least few months from such a crisis.

Kenyans are busy running away to Ghana because your crisis has taken 2 years without a solution.. fix it so they can stay.

gallivant:
It's never cheaper when the inflation is high. You must think your country is special, but it isn't. These are your mates...

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fflyg7uXgAMPKfB.jpg

yet rice is cheaper here than in Kenya
Electricity is cheaper, gas is cheaper, cooking oil is cheaper, cement is cheaper than in Kenya...

Those are the realities on the ground .. so again I ask, How are you guys surviving in Kenya?

No wonder poverty has risen to 44 million people in kenya

gallivant:
You should be crying not laughing n suffering..

Latest data says the inflation is over 100%!! Madness!

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FfmB1lZVQAIF8j3.jpg

yet things here are far cheaper than in Kenya .... That should let you know how bad things are in Kenya..

The fact that the least expensive 5kg bag of rice is 10 dollars in Kenya just makes us know that things are really bad.

Why are you guys paying 8 times for electricity than us?

Anyway, I don't expect anything much from you because rvp couldn't answer

gallivant:
Red herring. 40% inflation is not something I made up buddy. It's caused by poor Macroeconomic management. The price of rice in Kenya is determined by supply and demand.

Let me just laugh

Everything in your country is expensive than in Ghana... So I'm wondering how poor Kenya is surviving that level of inflation

rvp20182:
It says Takoradi but I am seeing the ocean

Are you expecting Takoradi to be in the forest ?

Takoradi is an ocean city

gallivant:
Kenya's inflation in not hovering around 40%, is it madman?

yet everything in Kenya is more expensive than in Ghana currently.... The opposite used to be the case.

Can you even afford rice ?

rvp20182:
You have on-off Tema-Accra line that is operational with 4 used DMU. The rest of the railway is rusted to the ground and you're trying to rehabilitate - it's far from going into operation.

Show me a video of you traveling in railway outside Tema-Accra?

You are worse than Nigeria.

Kenya even at it worse - Mombasa to Kampala railway has run nonstop since 1900 - as MGR. Passenger services was stop for few years but cargo works till now.


Nairobi Metro/commuter line has run nonstop since 1900.

All the branches are now all running - Kisumu, Nanyuki, etc

SGR is greenfield in kenya - old railway is working.

is this operational or not


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xX474L80GHE

Our bauxite train has been running for more than a 100years now. Carting bauxite from the various mines to Takoradi for Tema.

Next excuse for why you only have 580km SGR compare to Ghana 1000km with an extra 1300km already already under construction

rvp20182:
The crush/inflation/ name it started in March.
It already peaked.
That is called a lagging indicator.
Leading indicator - everything is coming down
And Ruto has not done anything - he is not finished forming his gov.
That mean everything coming back to normal based on positive sentiments alone.
People are confident on how he is going to steer the economy.
Zambia got such a lift off because their new president knows his stuff.

Nigeria and Ghana your inflation/liquidity name is accelerating and getting worse because nobody trust the sleepy Buhari and the Ghana short comedian.

Fortunate enough, the effect of inflation is better in Ghana than in Kenya .... You guys in Kenya have it worse off.

rvp20182:
There is no functional train service in your mini zoo apart from on/off Tema & Accra line.
In era of internet - we should not argue over such basic facts.

is this functional or not ?


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xX474L80GHE

There's also a long cargo train that carries bauxite from 300km away to Takoradi harbour to be transported to Tema.

rvp20182:
I once fact-checked; there is only a rickety functional line from Tema to Accra - something like 49kms - that generally operate based on the moods of their train driver -otherwise there is no train service working in Ghana. Their railways system went into disuse and they are trying to rehabiliate. They gave chinese their aluminum so they can repair their broken railway system.

This only train service they got - and it's a mess.

Management of Ghana Railway Company Limited (GRCL) will from today, Monday, July 18, 2022, resume the Tema-Accra passenger train service, which was suspended temporarily for rehabilitation works.

“After successfully addressing some technical challenges, GRCL conducted series of test runs and a final joint inspection was also carried out on July 7, 2022, by GRCL and Ghana Railway Development Authority (GRDA) to ascertain the suitability of the line for passenger service,” a statement from GRCL noted.

The Ghana Railway Company Limited in the statement said GRDA, which is the industry regulator, has granted it the approval to commence the shuttle service.

Desperate as usual... Now you're disputing videos too?

obaaderemi:
You see, when I tell them this they think I'm just messing with them. But it's the truth. This is the reason I don't quote them. A fool will bring you down to his level and you begin to look like him.

Neither of them has R I P's sharp and abusive tongue, at least he once beat the she.male until the idiot deactivated. Gallipig is even more Stupid than the transgendered. But then I quote the RIP guy. At least you get something out of him. Even the Kikuyuman idiot and wuochiwhatwver are smarter.

But see those two? Naaa, I put them in the same basket as suffering smiling.

rvp20182:
We are 2nd to Rwanda in quality and leading worldwide in export volume - we just need to improve our value chain.

For a country like Kenya, you really need to start growing something more profitable than tea.. it is such a small market to waste so much land on

Shma2022:
We have already concluded that one of your video... The most liked, is 6km with 330m elevated section.
I can debunk the rest, but that is wasting time.

We can all agree you need to build similar length of SGR to catch up with Ghana at 1000km

Red line already exist and renovated
Blue A-Line SGR completed

rvp20182:
At least you bipolar sometimes subsidize. Rwanda tea are going for a premium because of quality handpicking and agronomics.

Good you know, so what's stopping Kenya from achieving similar quality?

Shma2022:
There is nothing past 2020 - progress wise. I've done comprehensive research on your hot air rail system... I only got 230km total new section. The rest are rehabilitated sections.


Should I post videos, links or pictures?

I've already posted several videos here of all the lines.. you can refer to them for your education

gallivant:
What does it have to do with Nigeria? Is any country in Africa aiming to be like India? Africa needs progressive solutions and apparently you are not helping the cause.

The fact that you ask this question after the hot air you posted prior just make me know that you're stupid

Go and chat with shma.. the two of you ain't smart

obaaderemi:
Let them steam in their ignorance.

Naa it's not nice to leave a fellow African uneducated.. educating them will help improve their politics.

obaaderemi:
I wonder why the little Indians don't understand these basic things. Check out the five first companies on both the Nairobi stock exchange and the Nigerian stock exchange. Nigeria has more manufacturing companies on that list than Kenya does.

Meanwhile, to the two animals angry I don't quote them: that's the status quo until your brains mature.

I guess they'll just have to pound the sea because their level of dumbness is unimaginable.

Shma2022:
Adum - kaase section is 6km. You have only done 6km Mr. hobbit.

Should we tackle your 1000km hot air?

Lemme finish reading this report.

As usual... Because you can't build a similar length of SGR as Ghana... You're here posting a 2021 report base on work done in 2020.


Ghana renovated it A-line of NGR from Takoradi port to Kumasi and from Kumasi to Accra..

And has also gone ahead to build an SGR along the same line.


Next excuse

gallivant:
You need reliable power to industrialize. No amount of argument can change such a fact. Enlighten yourself, don't just yap incoherently.

I'm sure you know how to read

Several industries in India run on their own power

gallivant:
Red herring argument. Spare me the bs!

just say you don't know and get yourself educated

This must be the best Tea in the world... It taste far better

gallivant:
No country has ever industrialized with such an arrangement. Don't argue just for the sake.

India and China did before they could even have a full grid capacity
