Don't say too much for Tanzania.A lot of research have proven its feasible.It was estimated at 1.6bn,but as we speak it went up close to 3b.What is fascinating is foreigners will be allowed to buy properties,and a foreign buyer will get a permanent residence with his immediate family.
Yes Kenyans can apply for employment.
Safeguard? Here is where your foolishness emerges again.No investor can pour out such huge cash without assurance of safety.Remember this is a top notch tourist facility. With its international airport, most rich tourists will land directly,Tz migration officer will work at the airport.

Zanzibar is such a beauty to behold.
Tanzania is surely going to be my vacation destination next year.

Tanzania is truly blessed.

In as much as we have our differences, I really think a united East African republic with Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi will be a very progressive country.

By next year, all of West Africa hopes to use a single currency which will make us a single economy.
You east Africans speak a common language (swahili) compared to we West Africans who do not even understand each other.

With the character of Kenyans here, I can definitely see that Kenya should be the major hindrance to East African unity. They are just so poisonous and obnoxious. Gosh! But hey what are we going to do? We already share skin colour and race with them. Whether we like it or not, the destinies of all Black Africans are tied together somehow.

Kazikazi:
What Tanzania must do now is to recolonize Kenya.
All the starvation will stop,tribalism will die quickly, more people will own land,worshiping of white man will stop,slums will be no more,even terrorism will be no more.
As our army and other personnel will be stationed there,more beautiful children will be born,that Kenyan funny looking genes will be taken away since we will impregnate more women.
At last Kenyans will be free and happy.
I rest my case.

This may seem funny, but it is the truth.

I have always wondered why Tanzanians look more beautiful and handsome than Kenyans and Ugandans, in spite of the fact that you are all East Africans.

Tanzanians also have better manners and are more friendly, social and hospitable than other East Africans.

Kenyan economy may be higher than Tanzania in nominal calculations, but at the end of the day Tanzania is higher in purchasing power parity because the cost of living in Tanzania is cheaper. Tanzanians do not live fake lives.
The wealth of Tanzania is equally enjoyed by all citizens, unlike in Kenya where 90% of all the wealth and lands are controlled by whites, Indians and the Kenyatta family, leaving millions of the citizens to starve and live in stone-age settings.

Sad

My people,a man with a gun is your lord and saviour at that time T
I keep telling you
Few years ago thieves came to my crib in Ibadan. Me wey don go drink Goldberg like mad forget to lock door. The slap that woke me sounded like the last trumpet. Thinking it was rapture I opened my eyes hoping I'll be floating to heaven but lo and behold na hooded faces I see. Before I begin reason say na angel wear mask na him them ask for my car keys with one fat gun.
My people I give them the keys, give them money wey I keep for fuel,go downstairs with them,open gate for them. I even show them where the security dey and how to operate am so they won't come back if e die for road. After 20 mins wey dem go na him I begin shout ole.
Guess what,I see the car back after a few days. What if I argue?
When they come please behave like mumu. And hope for the best.
Rip young lady.

Hahahaha you are damn hillarious. Good one.

Xander85:
This is exactly the point, and it shows the difference in mindset between the two countries!
Doesn't it strike you as odd that Nigeria has hundreds of traditional rulers all jockeying for front-row recognition, while Ghana on the other hand has just one prominent respected traditional ruler?

Or are you guys arguing that when Africa was partitioned during the Berlin conference of 1884-85, that the area now called Ghana was one homogeneous ethnic/cultural entity while the area now known as Nigeria was made of distinct and disparate ethnic groups thus accounting for the many traditional rulers that went to meet with Prince Charles in Abuja, whereas in Ghana only one prominent monarch met with him?

If anything this speaks to the fact that Ghanaians are matured and more of a united nation than Nigeria could ever hope to be!

In Nigeria (more so in the south), every little hamlet wan form autonomous community or ethnic nationality out of pure greed and envy! Also, their materialistic arsses have sussed out that they can use this chieftaincy and kingship to corner some funds from the state and federal gov'ts when political parties and candidates are looking for innovative ways to bribe the electorate for their votes!

The Ashanti empire was the only empire existing in present day Ghana as to the time the British conquered Ghana. Unlike in Nigeria.

Ghana is a much smaller nation compared to Nigeria.

MyVILLAGEpeople:
There is also a certain picture showing the Queen of England and her husband bowing to Emperor HAILE SELASSIE during their visit to Ethiopia.

Are you serious? When was this and do you have the picture?

Hausa fulani muslim illiterates are a disaster to Nigeria. These people are worse than devils when it comes to the issue of religion. God forbid!

These people are supposed to have a country of their own like Somalia where they can self destruct.

sayisayi:
No be today...lugard's handiwork. Na Igbo blood is usually the glue that keeps the Zoo together (Just know once you past lokoja, you need to be aware.

I spoke to a guy who did Uni in Kogi state. His Muslim friend told him not to attend Uni the next day as he said the Ummah will be attacking all Christians. He learned that day that are many levels to this life.

Which university did this happen? Something like this cannot happen in Kogi state.

Yobeezy:
This is total rubbish with self acclaimed sentiments,who told you that millions of Kenyans are starving?Moreso the population of Nigerians starving is almost six times that of Kenya's.
Who told you that development in Kenya isn't evenly distributed?Furthermore devolution is contributing a lot because most of the regions in Kenya which were marginalized are now opening up,how many times do you people want us to sing this? do you people usually take hard weeds to comprehend simple issues?

And you can't come here to lie to us that development in Nigeria is even yet most of the northern parts of Nigeria which is Muslim dominated operates like there is no government,you're even the poverty and malnutrition destination of the world.The southern part of Nigeria is mostly Christian dominated and they tend to be at consistent loggerheads with their fellow northerners because of some stupid religion conflicts.

You Nigerians need prayers before you point a black finger on us.

1) Do you want to argue here that droughts and starvation never hit northern parts of Kenya year in year out?

2) Asides victims of Boko haram insurgency who were forced to flee their homes, can you prove that Nigerians starve?

3) Development is even in Kenya? Can you show us one single city/financial centre in northern Kenya where 10% of your population inhabit?

4) Kano & Kaduna cities are among top 6 most developed and urbanized cities in Nigeria and they are located in the heart of Northern muslim areas. I won't even talk about Abuja (our capital city) which is also situated in the north.

Kindly answer the questions above or you can call your fellow Kenyans to help you out.

Don't argue without anything to back you up.

Kur17:
R you OK now

Hahahaha, Oga those starving children in the first picture are children from the Nigerian civil war. I can show you more of those pictures if you want.

One blogger must have taken those pictures to add to the story of starving Nigerians. God forbid for such a scenario to happen in Nigeria.
You have a head my guy, think! How can Nigerians starve without political instability when 100% of the country's land is arable and fertile and is owned by private individuals and communities who are agrarian?

You have a brain and I want to believe that it works.

Niger republic is 90% desert and they don't starve.

Starving without war/crisis has never been a West African thing.

The last picture with a starving child being given water by a white woman is self explanatory in your picture. That was a child who is part of a community in Akwa Ibom state in Nigeria with an age long tradition where children accused of witchcraft are abandoned by their family to die! I can show you more of it if you want.

Don't be too desperate to bring Nigeria to Kenya's level. We never starve in West Africa unless when there is war or crisis.

Kur17:
When you were facing military we also had our challenges under Moi's era... You talk of northern Muslims we'll talk Somalis and other tribes from Ethiopia who are just as backward as your Bokoharam sympathisers...

Kenya started closing the gap just the other day wayy after the military rule...

Speaking of inequality, Nigeria, SA and Kenya have the same problem, in fact going by your GDP per capita with almost 50or40+% of your population living below poverty line you're worse off in inequality

You want to compare a civil war that took 3 million lives and burnt cities/financial centres to the ground? Do you know the cost of such wars?
Or you want to compare over 30 years of military dictatorship to Moi's regime?

Yes you have Somalis I know, but what percentage of your population are they? (35%)?

Nigeria's inequality is not worse because the statistics used for judging extreme poverty does not apply to rural Nigerians. That of urban Nigerians is very understandable and acceptable, cos it is impossible to live in a city without spending cash, but it is very possible in rural Nigeria.
Imagine calling people who farm and sell bags and bags of foodstuffs extremely poor. They may not have cash on their hands but they have acres of fertile lands at their disposal.

Jonraid:
Someone here is on a meltdown! How about Makoko...that you guys even planned to burn it?



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8b8vuD_P-is

In a developing city of 21 million people (Lagos), only 170,000 (0.8%) of the people live in a slum (Makoko). I desperately wish I could say the same thing for Nairobi.

Jonraid:
They look better! FFS! just stop being ignorant!

Every single one of these pictures show victims of Boko haram. Try harder.

Jonraid:
Calm down and take a chill! How about you having the most poor people in the world? But but Kenya is hell!

At least our poor people don't look like this

Jonraid:
HDI? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_Human_Development_Index


All you've posted here is utter nonsense. Can't trust you if you can't back up your claims with facts!

Yeah, the tens of millions of stone age living turkanas, forest dwelling masais and slum dwelling Nairobians are utter nonsense.

Kur17:
The same Google that is telling you Kenya is starving is the same that says you're starving and almost a half of your population lives in extreme poverty...

The same internet has pictures of starving Kenyan masses to show, can you show me pictures of starving Nigerian masses? I dare you!

Western media with western based statistics claim half of Nigeria lives in extreme poverty because their industrialized society and minds cannot comprehend how people can eat well and stay healthy without spending a dime in a whole day. Well, we have been living that way for centuries here.

@ TayserMahiri, Kur17, mtisTheQubit, Yobeezy, gallivant, Jonraid, GERALD710, Kikuyu1 and every other bragging Kenyan that will ever come to this thread.

You guys truly need to do something about the extreme uneven reality of that shithole you call Kenya. You guys can go ahead deceiving white foreigners and other observers who visit the CBD of Nairobi and other scripted areas in order to make them have good views of you, but you just really cannot deceive other Africans to take you guys any seriously.

Your country is a country that has the practice of robbing Peter to pay Paul. A country with the principle of taking advantage of the weak to fatten the strong.

For God's sake, how can a section of your country be living in stone age while another section brag of development or amenities of western standards? Imagine such level of double standards.

Nigeria for instance is a country where everyone is equally carried together in development, irrespective of tribe, religion or creed. This is because since ever, we have had state governments to cater for every region even when the federal (central) govt may neglect you.

How can a country have millions of citizens who starve year in year out, but yet chooses to use most of it's arable land for farming tea and flowers? Isn't that insanity? What ever could explain that?

This is the same thing that plays out in your cities. The negative effect of your fakeness, where just beside all the sky scrappers of your Nairobi, you have the largest slums in Africa sitted there and in these slums you have majority of the city's residents.
The few lucky poor and low middleclass citizens who manage to escape these slums are crowded up in multiple story concentration camp houses without ventilation, just so that the few rich people can live in extremely luxurious and spacious estates?

You guys end up showing us the expensive grand buildings and structures being built in Nairobi but at the end of the day, only a tiny percentage of the populace have access to these. It's such a shame!

I respect a country like Tanzania with a lower GDP (nominal) where there is better even development across the country and a more affordable standard of living for the populace than your country where a huge section of the populace live in stone age and will need to travel hundreds of miles to ever see what a city or modern urban area looks like.
Kenya, Your fakeness stinks! Go fix it!

Kenya as a country would never have been able to compare Nigeria at any developmemt index had we not been besetted by a civil war and decades of military rule just after our independence.

Some Nigerian cities were burnt to the ground during the civil war, but go to those places and you see bubbling and beautiful urban areas today, whereas you will have to travel hundreds of miles around some parts of Kenya to see any sign of urbanization. You can imagine the country comparing itself with Nigeria.
Kenya has never experienced a serious national challenge like war or decades of military rule, yet you wonder why Kenya is still dragging development with other African countries whose progress was stalled for decades by war and military rule.

Kenya would never be able to compare Nigeria in any human development statistics had it not been for the Core-northern muslims we have in Nigeria who form 35% of our population. They are like our major problem here.
These people have a clear anti-western and even anti-development culture, yet other parts of Nigeria have been managing to drag them forward by force. This is what true fairness in a nation is all about, unlike your country Kenya where some sections are left to rot in perpetual darkness while others make progress.

Kur17:
You're the "giants" man, this is the most current situation in the capital of poverty

I am from Northern Nigeria. No one is starving in Niger republic which is 90% desertified and north of northern Nigeria, let alone Nigeria!

Nigeria is not like Kenya where Kenyatta family controls all the land and uses it for his private tea farming.
All land in Nigeria is owned by communities and people who use them for farming food crops.

Most northern Nigerians get their income by farming food crops which they sell to the south. Now, explain to me how rural northern Nigerians (the poorest Nigerians) can ever starve?

Is that the case in Kenya?

Runalong333:
I think Kenyans should be demanding for control of their land , all these flower and tea farms seem to be benefiting the elite and the British invaders. Can the Kenyans shed some light on this, what are the plans?

My brother. It is just a sad situation. Kenyans are the chief sponsors of people who tarnish the image of Africa. We know many west africans tarnish Africa's image by drowning on getting to Europe, but at the end of the day, there are millions of our people that did take this journey and today are milllionaires in Europe, remitting million back home.
Not that I'm encouraging this journey!

Kenya on the other had is a country where the government sacrifices the lives of some of it's citizens for money and to impress the white foreigners in their midst.
Kenya is a highly uneven developed country where a vast part of the country is left underdeveloped and untouched just for the sake of all the country's money to be pumped into building sky scrappers in Nairobi.

I thank God for Nigeria where development seems to be quite evenly spread.

Kenyan masses are nothing but puppets of the Kenyatta family and the Indian elites.

If you want to weep for Africa and curse the reason for you being black, you don't need to look any further than to watch documentaries on certain parts of Kenya. These are the kind of images Kenya sends to the western world to represent we Africans. Are these the kind of people to be taken seriously?

Maybe you should concentrate on your poor people and those who drown to reach Europe!

Nigerians who make the journey to Europe are those who gathered the sums of $1,000 - 3,000 for the journey and were swindled of their money.

They were not citizens who could not afford common food.

Latin Americans drown and die on their journey to USA and Kenya is not better than any single Latin American country.

I dare you to show me one Latin American country Kenya is better than. Pointless rambling.

Ghanaians also make the journey. Is Kenya better than Ghana?

gallivant:
You are that insecure about social festivals? Not surprising considering your social festivals are all about rituals and witchcraft. You should step out of the zoo to experience life.

I am insecure about able bodied male Africans celebrating petty BLANKET, TEA & BISCUIT festivals which were meant for European children and teenage girls, especially when millions of their citizens are starving due to acute food shortages and relying on external food aid.

Its nice giving India a run for it's money!

Do you now want to juxtapose poverty with famine?

Times and over, we have made this clear that Western standards for determining poverty levels on monetary terms just do not apply to all Africans.
Most rural Nigerians do not really need to spend cash to live their daily lives. They provide almost everything they need for themselves locally.

If not for Boko haram insurgency. The average Nigerian does not know what starvations feels like. It is something we watch on the television from East Africa.

Kenyanstar:
KERICHO TOWN

Your citizens starve for no justifiable reasons, other than the fact that Kenyatta family and other Indian business men use the little available arable land in Kenya for Tea farming. What a joke!

GERALD710:
Bank accounts are more common than Mpesa dude .
http://www.cgap.org/blog/kenya-bank-accounts-again-more-popular-m-pesa-why
Most Kenyans have at least 1 bank account.I have three.
In Kenya most banks have zero charges for keeping an account idle forever(KCB,Coop,CBA) or for up to 6 months after which one is charged sh 200 to reactivate.
Most banks except the multinationals have no minimum balance requirements.
Unlike Nigeria whose banking rules are like Kenya 's in 2003.

2003? Yet our banking sector is far more advanced than yours. We even buy up your banks

Yobeezy:
There's no difference between you and that Tanzanian slowpoke,you people are being blinded by old news published long ago.
To be honest,the last time Kenya was stricken with severe drought and hunger was back in 2011 until of late there has been rare cases related to starvation,this has been attributed by improved agriculture in the northern arid regions and devolution too has helped alot here.
What's shocking is that Turkana the region which has been under severe drought is developing faster than the whole of the lazy nation called Tanzania,devolution and oil that was discovered some few years ago will further change the face of Turkana.
Am very sure,starvation is a problem in Africa in all countries including the so called 'giant' of Africa,by the way Nigeria even has the highest malnutrition rate in the world,100 millions of you are living in extreme poverty.
It's the same with Tanzania,it can't achieve 100% food sustainability despite the Tanzanian fool keeps on whining madly about Kenya as if their country is an haven.

Bla bla bla. Born liars.

Look at the screenshots below, do they look like 2011?

Kenya is just the most useless and unserious country where the government prefers to make money over the lives of citizens. At least 50% of Kenya is arable. Instead of the government to use this for intensive farming of food crops to meet the feeding demands of the populace, they rather use to it farm flowers and tea, so they can celebrate more BLANKET, TEA & BISCUIT FESTIVALS. Madness!

Lonestar124:
Fulani by tribe are truly beautiful and handsome but their backwardness and intemperate religious fanaticism is not absorbable to me.

Exactly. There is nothing beautiful about people with such a dark and evil heart. Extreme religious extremists with no tolerance of other faiths and tribes.

It's not just about Aboki alone. All illiterates are dirty! We educated people buy food from illiterates who know nothing about micro organisms and their harmful effects.
Nigeria really needs a more orderly processed and checked food industry. People sell poison to the public in the name of food.

Hell no it doesn't ! America still remains the world super power and the boss of everyone. Canadians and Scandinavians still move over to America to pursue their dreams.

Kazikazi:
Kenya is a starving nation.I don't argue with poor,extremely poor people like you Kenyans.Tanzania is food sufficient. Don't bring your funny excuses of drought.many nation which have similar climate are not starving to death.Israel has a desert but they don't starve,Namibia too don't starve,USA,South Africa too don't starve.
Simply speaking Kenya is primitive,it lacks technical know-how of modern farming.And you are simply not smart.Sorry.
Some pics I can't upload here since they are too sensitive,my heart can't let me do it.You may shade tears.oooh God.

OMG! What is this? The funniest thing is that this starvation was not even caused by any form of political instability. This is unimaginable.

@mtisTheQubit, Yobeezy, Jay254, gallivant, Jonraid, TayserMahiri ? Is this what you call a country?

Niger republic, Nigeria's northern neighbour is 90% desert by landmass, yet their citizens do not starve. What excuse do Kenyans have for starving for heaven's sake? Kenya is a joke.
