Concerned about the constant crisis rocking marriages due to poor sexual life of couples, renowned Kenyan sexologist, Getrude Mungai has gone on national television to show women how they can save their marriages in the bedroom.

The sexologist who claimed she wants to help women especially to keep their men from looking outside for sexual satisfaction demonstrated on live TV the latest and best bedroom positions she claimed can help tbem quench their men’s thirsts.

Getrude was on K24 TV channel giving tips to women whom she claimed have a habit of lying like logs of wood during sex on how they should spice up their sex lives.

In a bold and daring move, she showed married women how to change position during sex and all this was being aired on live TV. K24 TV Channel is owned by Kenyan President, Uhuru Kenyatta.

See photos of Getrude below busy at work..

While Kenya is going for Vision 2030 (which to me is unrealistic), Naija has her Millennium Development Goals (MDG) set for the next 1000 years from 2000. Honestly I find it insulting you think Nigerians are comfy in misery, you think its easy to administer a nation of 170m people with a background of feudal political structures, cultural and religious dogmatism and never say die attitude, think again.

Guys...pls this was were the story was gotten....its a handle on twitter....Sorry for the mistake....

Kenyanstar:
I think the only consolation you have got in terms of superiority complex is the general population of Nigeria which has kept the common Nigerian to believe that it is a parameter of measuring "greatness". India has a populace of 1B with a GDP of 2.3 trillion, Singapore has a population of 6m with a GDP of 500b. Does that make India delude itself into calling itself a giant in Asia at all, NO! Indians dont use their population to bully other Asian countries due to huge population, NO.
My argument is that Singapore has a much more dynamic social-economic policies compared to India and most Asian neighbors with the exception of South Korea, Taiwan and Japan. Population or GDP base cannot be of any use if the general effect does not trickle down to strengthen infrastructure in a country.

Point number 1 is funny coming from a guy from a people well known for their alcoholism and debauchery,

-- I have tasted Changa'a. (only tasted) and it is indeed a terrible liquid to fill your stomach with.
-- Used to attend Blankets & Wine quite often
-- Also club hopped Westlands every weekend
-- Kisumu, Lamu, Nyeri (did some work in Nyeri), Mombasa, been there done that.


That should define the extent of my social integration within Kenya properly.

Hopefully you are convinced now, I do have a lot of Kenyan friends I have these kinda arguments with but you guys set a different standard on being closed minded.

naijalander:
and what business is this to you?

naijalander:
Alright guys, this argument has gone on waay too long so I have a confession.

Quick background, I did school in Nairobi, I went to St. Christopher's in Ngong Rd then to USIU.

Over the years, I have always thought Kenya is a more comfortable place to live in for one reason; stable electricity.

So my final take is this;

Forget the stats about imports or exports o GDPs or Slums, Ports, Projects, etc

If you have ever lived in both countries (for an appreciable number of years, which I have), this conclusion should not shock you.

Kenya has stable electricity, Nigeria doesn't and its killing our way of life, our economy even our politics.

Otherwise, I sincerely believe Nigeria has a much more stronger institutions than Kenya, its just what it is.

KENYAS HEALTH SECTOR COMPARED TO NIGERIA

Courtesy Wikipedia
Kenya’s health care system is structured in a step-wise manner so that complicated cases are referred to a higher level. Gaps in the system are filled by private and church run units.

1. The governments pays for all maternal delivery in all public hospitals
2. Children below 5yrs are given free treatment in all public hospitals
3. All district hospitals in the country provide free treatment & offer subsidized medicines
4. Kenya has the highest number of referral hospitals(97) in Africa, 2 biggest national referral hospitals in East & Sub-Saharan Africa
5. Kenya has 47 cancer centers based in all county's through the National government-County government health partnership
6. Free Tuberculosis treatment in all public hospitals
7. Free vaccination for all citizens in all public hospitals

Awe comeon, Kenya is owned by whites, Indians and Arab! Those people leave, your coffee, tea and wildlife industry collapses and Kenya ends up relying on the earnings of long distance runners and maybe flower sales and national dish will become, Masai cow-blood kebabs. All this is fact, one which no amount of swearing online will change.

Joonana:
Good you talked about GDP per capita. How about the following development indices, hw does Nigeria compare with Ghana:
- Access to electricity, potable water and health care
- level of poverty
- literacy rate
- Life expectancy
- Human development Index and Gini index
- Security and crime
- HIV prevalence
- Maternal and infant mortality rate
* ABOVE all, which passport is more powerful Ghana/Nigeria?

Litmus:
Truth is, there are Nigerian experts capable of all the infrastructural developments going on at Eko Atlantic except maybe for the dredging and ocean protection walls. And i am even on record for advocating that Nigeria hand over any meaningful developments projects intended for Niger Delta to foreigners -some of whom have the most imaginative ideas for future urban development. It is not that Nigerians are not capable but because Nigerians right now politically and ethnically don't trust themselves and because, frankly there are better abroad. I am not one for self deceit or lies. We live now in a world where expertise can be viewed in modular terms. The British employed the former Canadian economist and finance minister for Governor of the bank of England. Nigeria could conceivably do the same because of the neutrality this would provide but not because we don't have financial experts.

Kenya on the other hand simply does not possess the in dept native expertise that Nigeria has, please let us not deceive ourselves. Nigerians exits that are capable of building echo Atlantic except for the wall and dredging. It's just that Nigerians would not trust them to (). And we have the wealthy Native people to fund equivalent projects if they so wish. Lebanese are welcomed but not necessary. Nigeria has the Native (meaning black people)doctors capable of any surgery any native Kenyan is capable of and also those their Indians and Arabs are capable of too. I so happen to like Kenyans, Ugandans and Ethiopians but the truth is Kenya relies heavily on Indians and Arabs. The difference is that Nigeria can do without Lebanese and Indians, we have the black expertise in almost every field.

I haven't bothered to look, but if i do, i bet there would be Indians and Arabs lurking behind those Software developments in Kenya of which they are so incessantly verbal. Nigerians on the other hand, in the next decade, will be equal to the best the world has to offer.

Bifwoli:
That commenter won't be as quick to tell the world how Lagos' biggest development ,the Eko Atalntic City, is the brainchild and money of Asians of Lebanese extraction.

The Chagoury Brothers are behind the biggest urban renewal of Lagos.

Litmus:
Would be great if African, unfortunately many of Kenya's noteworthy developments have Asians and Arabs at the root.

ULSHERLAN:
Atlast!!!

Something good coming from Kenya

ccollins:
how do I start up in kenya even if I come in with a tourist visa, I have more than 1mill and would like to start a business, how do I go about it

Hbuyosh:
Like how much have they invested in Kenya? How many people have they employed? How many people in Kenya have benefitted? Do u have the data? Kindly reveal all that here.

Timbuktu14:
Superiority complex is the issue here... You are too focused on painting to us, what you guys aren't. And, you are also allowing yourself to be blindfolded by these deceptions!

Honestly, you need to step outta your comfort zone to fully understands how the world works.

There are many Nigerians, South Africans, Ghanians and even Seychellois doing fine in your country. Thus, improving your economy. Can same be said about Kenyans in other countries?

Oh! I get it! You are the richest African country and your economy is so robust that there are little needs for your people to go and 'hustle'.

Dey dere make pant dey wear you!

I'm out!

baslone:
I didnt want it to even get to that. U for leave am make him dey jabo dey go. Making it sound like the country is any different from any other African nation.

Just like we did in Ghana, Benin and Cameroun, The company has invested in their economy more than we have done in Federal Capital Territory with enough of their citizens under our payroll more than our own Ogun state. A lot of things that cant be discussed on a public forum- theirs is from the ministers, ambassadors to the normal dude on the streets.

O ma tey ni!

Timbuktu14:
Maybe...! Surebet247 is licensed in that your Kenya - I guess you know what that means for your economy as whole. You still maintain that he doesn't impact your daily life? Tax payers money aren't used to develop roads and other social amenities in your country? You don't make use of the roads built with tax payers money in your country? Please check the statememt again

That right there should also do

Timbuktu14:
Well, I could say that he's been to places... He's the CEO of one of the biggest bookmaker in Nigeria - Surebet247. You may need to google it

That should do

baslone:
Do I need to? Like My people say. . .

"Eniti o ti de oko baba elomiran ri, lo ma nso wipe ko si oko ti o tobi to ti baba oun"

It's only someone who has not seen the extent of another man's farm that will always boast that his dad's farm is the biggest.

baslone:
I agree with you only if that is the practical reality.

Leave your comfort zone, go out and see the world brov!

Catastrophe1:
