Stop ranting. The world is moving away from fossil fuels.
no, not really.it will still be widely in use in 30 years time. When you consider the infrastructure needed for the Electric or hybrid cars and the fact that many countries like kenya still lack something as common as good roads, you'd understand why fossil is still gonna be used for long.

And considering the fact that many big multinational companies like shell , total, chevron, etc at still operating because of oil money, you'd understand more. Then there's Russia Saudi Arabia, Nigeria and other big nations who still depend on oil and gas, don't you think they would put up a good fight to ensure the use of fossil products won t stop soon.

But why are you So much against countries with natural resources, more like jealous or something.

are you slow, if Uhuru comes to Nigeria and decides to get a police protection, shouldn't the police man help shield him from the sun if he requests. It's not about race or class, if you want a police escort or a military escort over here, you go through a process.
I see absolutely nothing wrong since they are both under the umbrella, he wasn't just shielding the man but himself too. So what exactly are you confused about.

you are the most senseless Kenyan on nairaland. Nigeria isn't a communist country as such data are easily accessible to any group that needs it.

More also there are way more manufacturing activities in Lagos alone than kenya. Lagos economy is not based on oil because it has no oil.neither do they export oil through Lagos ports.

Nigeria manufacture ships, vessels and the likes which Kenya's can't do in 20 years time. Just relax man ok

Are ATMS everywhere in rural South Africa. Are ATMS everywhere like a PHONE. You're just incorrigible. They need it - that is why they tried - but it failed. It fails when you do stuff like QR code when smartphone penetration is 20%.

Look at Nigeria - they botched their implementation - by having banks lead it - and their Mobile Money is DEAD on arrival.

Mobile Money - if Kenya had not succeeded in such scale - would not be known.

South Africa failed - because they didn't think through the implementation.

but all these countries you are comparing with are better than you,

By next year or so - Kenya will be outspending you - and you talk about military gear. You can pay your soldiers with yams or ask them to go looting and raping spree in lieu of a decent salary as they do - but you cannot buy military gear with naira. You need dollars. You probably have rotten and rusted Rusian gear.

Kenya military are in Somali fighting Alshabaab - something the US cannot stomach - and we are not struggling against home-grown terror like Nigeria. Moi was a mild dictator and we were a democracy. We have never had a military coup and probably won't as long as we pay them well, keep their discipline well and proffesanalism very high.

how you make bold statement like "we will... We shall..." Make me wonder if I'm communicating with a dummy. What makes you think your military will increase their spending when your economy is barely surviving,
Or that The NAF won't increase their spending. We have moved from purchasing some vital equipment to designing and manufacturing them here, I don't mean assembling, its real design and production only South Africa, in the whole of Africa is ahead.

Again we produce rocket pods for our attack helicopters, and some vital components for our fighter jets, all this separate from what we spend in maintaining the military, bothe men and equipments.that alone should tell you who spends more I'm her military.
Burundi and not even Rwanda is your mate in military matters. Good day

Modified:
The navy is doing more building her own fighting vessels. And also carrying out in house refit of her old ships must like The airforce. Please just please let's drop this military matter it's annoying.

Deal with your boko haram first before giving us your own version of military ranking.
well enough to know that your military is overly corrupt.

Yes I never said I know a thing about military, but with the little I know, Kenya has a small military might.

The Chadian army regularly beat Boko haram - and Nigeria 0.2M force cannot. Most of the ranking is based on stuff like number of active personnel, population, and economy. It doesn't matter whether like Nigeria or Ethiopia the 200,000 army personnel are paid in sacks of yams or not paid at all - and are no more than a glorified militia - that have routinely taken over power from civilian authority - and like Forgiveness alleges - made Nigeria so poor. That is the price you pay for having less educated, indisciplined, militia as your armed forces.

Kenya Defence Forces stand tall - well paid, well-disciplined, and well-kitted - modern force in Africa. That is why we spend 1.2B dollars on 25K men. And you spend 1.9B dollars on 225,000!

Our police and internal security have their own budget of 2B dollars - and they have of course soiled our reputation and messed the country with their corruption and indiscipline - but they are still very effective.
let's discuss military and leave politics for now. You were not under a military rule yet moi spent 25 years in power.

Chadians have an effective force and don't really care about their lives, those fighting bokoharam are ex Chadian militias now paid by the government of idris derbi, so yes they fight dirty like the terrorists, the US has a base in kenya not so much as hut can they build in Nigeria,
In the 90s Nigerian soldiers under the United nations took over from the US after they were badly beaten and handed their a.sses by a bunch of ragtag militia, where was kenya?

Talking of funding, You spend on your military and yet nothing formidable to show for it.
The Nigerian military is well taken care of, and a potent force.
No military that isn't corrupt but there must be things on ground to show they are working.

Nigerian military isn't your mate Mr man. We make drones, armoured vehicles, guns, military boats, warships, bombs, rocket pods for helicopters,and military kits. That bokoharam is still able to carry out attacks is because of the corruption, it took Us 2 weeks to decimate bokoharam in 2014,

So please it's okay to compare economy and city, but military or police wise we ain't the mates bro.

Only South Africa can discuss military with us

Our police image is in tatters for sure. Our military is miles ahead of many in Africa. Ghana ragtag army that overthrew your civilian force is known mostly fro cowardice. Our army is known for their discipline, incorruptible nature and their professionalism.

KDF is a mean well-paid force - and for their numbers - just well over 25k - they are amongst most the trained, educated and disciplined forces in the world.

For example in KDF - all officers must have a bachelor's degree in military science - and if you're not promoted in 8yrs to another rank - you go home.

Find a KDF office misbehaving - like you have in Nigeria. Not gonna happen in Kenya. You are sent home straight.

There is no GENERAL BUHARI whose primary certificate was eaten by a goat grin smiley heck from being a commissioned officer - you need a degree in military science - in addition to any other degrees.

the prowess of a good military is not based on degree( oh Nigeria beats you hands down when it comes to degree, we dominate in united states war college) rather its about the resilience and efficiency, and buhari has excelled in that more than your whole pot bellied generals. He single handedly beat the Chadians who defeated Libya in the infamous Toyota war, they thought we were good only with heavy weapons but with his good thinking and military dexterity buhari used their own trick against and their capital was about being taken when buhari was told to halt the advancement immediately.

Again, save Ethiopia and Tanzania, East Africans have a duck military with kenya leading.

Oh. You for years Kenyans kept holding on to a myth that they had mi28 LMAO grin some even threatened to post the non existing airframe. Till now many Kenyans still believe they do including old man kikuyu1

Are you actually comparing the Dassault Rafale and JSF with a JF-17? Bro, that's some very serious disrespect right there. It's like comparing a Volkswagen Beetle with a Rolls Royce Ghost.

Let's be honest here, the only good thing about the JF-17 is its price, which is very attractive in comparison to the expected performance. And Pakistan has not offered up any conclusive evidence that the plane went on combat sorties against India. Links to same would be appreciated.
As for the Rafael having few export sales, my friend it's like you are being disingenuous. There are many reasons for that, like cost and competing aircraft, but it is currently operated by 4 countries.
bro give 3 concrete reason you think jf17 is a bad fighter jet
Or why beetle of 1900s will comparable to your rolls Royce 2000.

The latest release of military spending. Nigeria (the 200M giant) spends 1.9B against Kenya (50M) spending 1.2B. South Afirca spends 3.5B. Algeria are spending nearly 11B dollars. Angola spends 1.4B.

Ghana - spend 0.1B smiley - with Tanzania spending 0.6B - despite having larger territory to protect.

Going back to the poverty capita - Just imagine having 200K plus active personnel on a budget of 1.9B - compared to Kenya lean, disciplined and professional force of 25K on 1.2B dollars. No wonder a kenya private out of college earn more than their army major.

I bet Nigeria army is paid in sacks of yams and ground nuts.

https://www.sipri.org/databases/milex
check how much has been spent on the military in the last 20years through grants and personal government spending then come back let's talk. The 2billion is for the normal military spending + all other grants and government spending its way more than $3billion a year. Compare the Nigeria military inventory (weapons) to that of kenya. Then you d know kenya has a useless military with Ankara material uniform. The only good I see there is your air calvary ( I know you don't know about that)

rvp20182, Israel is formidable power but those two countries that you have mentioned ie China and India both are in entirely different league.
You could have said that Israel can defeat Britain and France, and few more people would be agree that it may be be possible But China and India??
Myself i am admirer of Israeli innovation and agility. But China and India They are in Top 5 of class, You can not bring Israel against Russia, India, China or USA this is exclusive exclusive Class.
And since this is hypothetical scenario (Only possible WW3) so I dont have too much to say.
In imaginations even Malawi can bring down Australia.

China isn't strong militarily like wise India but Israel is as powerful as America, the brains behind America's most deadly weapons are Jews and once there's war against Israel, all Jews are required to fight for the Jewish state, Israel. Mossad is the most potent secret agency in the whole world.

Russia cannot defeat Israel in any case of war, because all what the US has in it's arsenal is opened to the jews/ Israel.

that is why some visionary leader are clamouring for single Africa state . one United state of Africa. imagine , how can my country ( Ghana)with 30 million has the same slices of bread with India that is around 1.2 billion people In regional trade. surely my country will be cheated . imagine we are one people with one nation, China will never give us painful cramps......

if we are one single state , our development will have been faster and by now we would have been a stronger force to reckon with. our first mistake is our disintegration. we can never be like them. they are too strong both economic and military wise to conquer for us as an individual state.
a United Africa will never work, not even in West Africa, and mind you Africans are still developing mentally, just count most Africans ancestral history 4 fathers back they were tree climbers and forest dwellers.

Either Africa like it or not . Africa will developed , it might not be now , it might be the next 10 year or so. and the reason is not far fetched, it is simply becuse of ""cost of labour"" China and other part of the world will have developed enough to demand for more high wages and better palliative . so lots of company will want to cut cost and at the same time established new branches . this alone will force them to scramble for development in Africa as the new virgin ground . so country that has a faster workable and flexible policy will attract the best of them in Africa. Africa country with adequate infrastructure , sound business policy with a considerable market size will be first to consider. And if you notice , it has started happening . Ethiopia, Nigeria are getting lots of huge Chinese firm. Ghana even with her small market size is also fighting for her share hence the need to have the AfCTA capital . that Is an excellent way to become the gate way of Africa.
India would have been a better world leader, indians were once everywhere in Nigeria and some african countries in the 60s but today they practically have 0 global influence save bollywood.I envy Ghana, no much crisis, small population, 1 dominant religion, good governance, if you continue that way you'd definitely be a preferred destination in Africa.
