Where is t he lie?

Minerals and whites are what makes south Africa. Nigeria is the real superpower if we decide to go by the bone of contention at hand. Then followed closely by kenya--- and then the rest, probably Ethiopia or Ghana.

For sports, Kenya is definitely the giant if we follow the same suit.
your inferiority complex is showing again.

Bozo, sometimes you reason like a dwarf. Why should you compare living standards of blacks in SA with Kenya? -- when the environment is
already white dominated. Like the whites have already made pretty much evertything to uplift a struggling black SAn.
Ok, Do you think negro in USA or UK are better of in those countries? No, I don't think so. They are the most discriminated -- most of them are gangsters, warloads, drug dealers and whatnot. Those people have their own issues --- predominantly the epitome of racial segregation, the worse --- The worst of it all. But their middle income is incomparable to any nation in Africa -- they are way richer because of the existing environment.
but the fact is blacks are better of in SA.... That's the point wink much better of.... Several times better of...

South Africa is generally ahead of kenya but the gap is closing pretty fast. 10yrs ago the gap was 10 times big; now it's merely 3 times; another decade; there wont be any gap. Unless the majority blacks wake up - South Africa is stuck.
it's not closing......the gdp gap has infact widened

what is wrong with marathon?

Do you stand Kenya in volleyball?
Do you have any skinny lazy Khoisan tennis players winning Australia opens?
Do you have any sprinters close to Kenyan?

Since you're slow, I will repeat. You're doing better in sports than Kenya. But my advice to you is join the Boers and Indians in winning. Don't let them do everything for you.
- vollyball... Really?

- we rank higher in tennis

Let me add Innoson. Although I doubt they manufacturer a button - but at least they claim to be exporting cars/

This is what we want to see.

Small SME in Nigeria expand in their states...

Then expand couples of states..they are now medium company

Soon it's national in all states of Nigeria...they are now a national corp

Soon it's open a branch in Benin, Togo, Cameroon...they are now sub-regional corp

It expands to Ghana, Ivory Coast, Senegal, Niger, Chad,...they are regional

Soon it all over Africa...they are now continental company.

And soon like South Africa SAB - or kenya comcraft - expand worldwide - become MNC

Good examples..Nigeria continental Banks. Maybe we can Jumia smiley

But something like Insurance - Nigeria is completely BLANK

Kenya and South Africa it almost every sector

That is how you will become economic giants of Africa.

Otherwise you'll become the entertaintment giants with DRC...one for anglophone africa and the other francophone.

As of now South Africa is on a retreat - and Kenya is expanding.

10yrs Kenya companies will be running Africa and Nairobi will become Africa HQ - it will huge mega city - not huge slum like Kinshasasa or Lagos - but huge metropolis with 100 floors building - housing Africa HQ where someone will be managing Mauratania in 1st floor...Nigeria in 10th floor...and South Africa in the 99th floor.

As for Nigeria - it will be sending petty traders to Africa to sell used car spare parts and smuggled substandard products.- while dabbling in drugs and entertaining Africans with intricate dance moves smiley

Kenyans will be sending proffesionals to manage their subsidaries all over Africa - like is now happening in 10 regional countries in almost every sector.
Lol stupid wild dreams

Not a long booring debate on GDP PPP smiley
Ten yrs ago: Kenya GDP was not even 40B; Today as we close 2022; we are likely to get 120B:
South Africa is stuck where it has been since 2010 and will be in 2030...400B...lows of 350..highs of 450.
Middle class trap is real.
Only Mauritius has escaped it
South Africa is facing LATAM situation.

Kenya GDP PPP last i check was approaching 300B...probably it hard to keep it upto date.
South Africa are facing middle class trap.
And I dont see how it will escape...now with 40% joblessness, immigration mess, corrupt ANC and now ESKOM.

Picture break as Nigerians are unable to name any company outside Dangote and Banking sector that is scaling regional leave alone continental heights.

The idea of igbo petty trader as businessman is archaic.

Re: Kenyans Are Far Behind Nigerians In Every Aspect – Fani-Kayode by rvp2018:
Ruto launched the revolutionary Hustler Fund - and 48 hours later. 6.5Million kenyans have registered. Look likely it could get to all the 30m adult kenyans by the weekend end.

The Hustler Fund - features low interest (almost zero if you borrow and repay within 14days) - 8 percent annually -0.002% daily- but most importantly every 5% is banked into saving & pension plan.

Similar product Fuliza in 3yrs is now loaning out 5B dollars..with only 7 million customers. This one could get into trillions Ksh easily but most important apart from providing low interest micro-loans it will build pension plans for almost every kenyan - informal or not.

Kenya gross saving is about 13% to GDP - very low compared to global average of 25% - and this will likely add almost 5% - reducing the needs to borrow from Chinese and others.


Update - 3:00 PM

Amount disbursed= 2,064,100,521 (up from 1.6b at 11am today)

Total Repayment: 75,809,412 ( Up from 49.7m)

Opted in customers= 6,449,726

Total transactions= 3,542,221

Transactions Per Second (TPS) = 283

Hustler Fund is about bringing dignity and wealth to bottom of the society - the large informal sector - giving every low interest loan - mandatory savings - and pension fund.

To qutoe someone.
Hustler Fund is GoK starting a HR department for informal sector --> mandatory pension + matching benefits + biweekly wage + real time KPI (credit score)

Great Idea.

It should work and perhaps be a model to bootstrap other African markets.

After BUA, Dangote and Globalcom - and few banks - that pretty much your business community - then below them are petty informal traders. Kenya has very extensive business men owning things across the region. It's not just Indians. The kenya-indian are like West African lebanese - born and bred here. But even forget about them...I can give you hundrends black owned companies doing great in the region.

Kenya is not Nigeria backwater.

The bulk of dangotes workers are Nigerians, not Indians. Indians do not only dominate your industries, you even tout them as your success story. You can't talk about Kenyan businesses outside Kenya without pointing at the Indians. They've colonized not only your land but your minds.
Indians are the largest employers in the zoo.

You can't name them because it doesn't exist, just like Nigerian sports. winkOther than Dangote, you have no companies in Africa.
Re: Kenyans Are Far Behind Nigerians In Every Aspect – Fani-Kayode by rvp2018: 9:43pm On Dec 03, 2022
List one by each economic sub-sector. They dont exist. What exist are Igbo petty traders selling car spare parts and such kind of informal business. In kenya almost every sub-sector they are at least 10 regional players.

Most of you were totally sold out to this idea that Nigeria is a giant and Kenya is poor.

The thing I know about Kenyans - nobody is proud of ignorance - and kenyans are very very worldy people.

You should ask the Tanzanians here. We know stuff. Our education teaches us stuff.

Most of you in Nigerians are ignorant and proud of it.

Look at you obaboon... I am here to help you.

Most of you west african have empty brain...whose only ambition is to escape to US or Europe or Asia.

It's insulting to compare kenya with Nigeria because even when it come to simple Oil and Gas - kenya companies dominate the region - all the way to Mozambique in south - South Sudan in the North. Even Central Africa - Kenya trucks are now going there.

Why cant you even hack the OIL and GAS business? I saw one Nigeria company being bought by NPP - I think it had 10 gas stations smiley

You're just ignorant and proud of it.

Kenya outside South Africa - is the regional economic powerhouse.

Nigeria - your banks are doing okay - the rest of the sectors - you are DEAD as DODO.

Go to about 10 of these regional countries - Kenya is top 1-5 investor/trading/name it.

As a Matter of fact, before this thread many of us didn't know Kenya was doing so poorly. Of course, I knew it was just another African country, so I wasn't exactly expecting anything tangible. But it shocked me to know Kenya actually had an economy smaller than Lagos economy. I didn't know about mathare and kibera, didn't know we had companies taking over Kenyan companies, didn't know you had people starving like Ethiopians did in the 80s and that your was perennial.

I didn't know Indians owned you. Didn't know our sports even without really taking it seriously, was more diverse than yours, Didn't know you rented your wives to European tourists, etc etc.

If we were dealing with a serious country, you would never have seen a Nigerian here beyond page 1. This thread has exposed your country and the saddest thing is that you have resigned to fate, hence you see nothing wrong with that hellhole. Kenyans are worse than animals.
