looooll u are very bad at lying , no .1 y wud oda countries want to launch satellite in Kenya

no.2 y wud Kenya have d capacity to launch satellite and dey don't even have a satellite

no.3 which countries pay to launch satellite cos I know Nigeria is d only African country that has satellites .
abi is it america that will launch their satellite in Kenya or China

italians pay to use it dimwit..an its a Space Center.an about satellites even North Korea has soo many of them...The beauty of Kenya (an am not bragging ) is its ability tap on other advanced countries technologies .no need of reinventing the wheel ...

Sorry gt post this..problems with Nigeria..Nigeria is like India in many ways..
1. obsessed with light skin (so goes bleaching..)
2.Crazy population..(over 200m)
3.have extremely rich people ( the 1%) an extremely poor ( 80%)
4.caste system..ya heard me right ..i think Nigeria practices the caste system in a way...There is a class which does not want others to prosper an the only way a Nigerian can overcome this is to move to other country an hope his dreams come true..

80%?? lol I swear I won't argue with you again, but let's take a cursory look at some Kenya's problems..

1. Too many slums even with your smaller population

2. Excessive poverty, hunger and starvation

3. Poor infrastructures

4. Divide and rule system, where the very few rich live in affluence, and the poor are left in villages, slums and forests to decide their fate

5. Corruption, I thought Nigeria's case was worst until I made proper researches.

6. Drought

7. Tribalism and ethic tensions

let me stop here for now, I just wanted to prove to you that every country has it's own problems, no matter how much u hide it, thanks to google, and if we needed someone to tell us our problems, definitely not going to be a Kenyan!

Wen u said " animals in Kenya live beta Dan humans" am not surprised, because d ' Animals' in Kenya live in Nairobi while d ' humans' in Kenya live in d forest and zoo. You are used to interacting with animals daz why you r easily offended nd don't have a sense of humour.

i dont know about the kikuyu thingy nor about worship of Indians (i cant proof that) but have been to nairaland for a while an there is this trend of igbos vs others an that i can proof.even outside ya country it still exits

Ghana leaving ECOWAS would be a good thing for Ghana cos ECOWAS membership so far has been a mess for Ghana and it's holding Ghana back economically

exactly Ghana should leave cos Nigeria's domination is too much imagine how can we have 70% of the seat in ecowas parliament
but there were/are plans for a single currency but some requirements had to be met of which Nigeria is the closest to meeting even Ghana,liberia $ Sierra Leone were below bar

My kenya brothers. I will like us to discuss abou thee great men from your side. Julius nyerer of tansania , uhuru kenyatta of kenya and idiamin of uganda. Some school of tought praise idamin style of leadership. What is your say.

From what I read in history and government, Kwame Nkurumah was a great man and freedom fighter and legend who mapped out a model for development not just in Ghana but West Africa as a whole.. not until recently while I was watching a Ghanaian station, he was the topic of discourse, most old people who worked with him then in the course of their interview, criticized him alot, some even described him as a dictator and criticized his policies, I was really shocked and questioned if it was same Kwame Nkurumah I had read and heard alot about

They will continue to get exposed.Do you know their young men now abandon their families, running away from kenya to go fight for alshabab in somalia because of money(talk of their hdi)?Then the animals come back to kill their own people.A small country which should be the epitome of prosperity.shame.It might interest u to know that about a quarter of al shabab fighters are kenyans.

you see what i call diverse opinion. People who always criticize even if you appear innocent of the crime. Check out a youtube video where mandela the mandiba of south africa was criticize. Kwame inkrumah to me is the best leader ghana has ever had.... Some may argue it either but i have my strong point.

mtis:

for me am not that good in history but i feel like putting Kenyatta and Nyerere in the same sentence with id ami just wrong....an Kwame Nkrumah was an awesome guy

so you do not consider idi amin style of leadership a clever one.

That's what i told vaxx too.Nkruma was brilliant but he talked too much and acted little.He spent huge amounts on white elephant projects and when the projects failed,he couldn't handle the criticism so visited his people with a heavy hand.African leaders have always been selfish.

bro ecowas has a lot of benefit for each member. A very less percentage of commodity moving in and out each member state to another. Free movement of member to any any state under the cover of ecowas. Millitary assistance during chaos time. And many more. Authough i agree some member are enjoying the priviledge better than some state. Nigeria was able to penetrate ghana market as a result of ecowas rules and regulation. There was a time in ghana in 2013 when ghanians complain of foreigner domination their local market. Ghana goverment was called to order by the ecowas court ... I think we should look much in a way to improve it better than to dissolve it. We can borrow idea from gulf member state not EU.

As a freedom fighter and a pan africanist,he was a great guy.Do you know Sunny Ade made a song about him?But as a leader,Osagyefo like most other african leader of his time failed woefully.Years ago,I watched a documentary on NTA on ghana.The focus was a colossal aluminium smelter Reynolds,an american firm built for nkruma.After completion, reynolds insisted on bringing bauxite from jamaica.Nkruma disagreed since ghana had more bauxite than jamaica.The americans,who had the expertise to manage the plant left and the plant just remained redundant.The ghanaians obviously didn't read the fine details of the contract.That was just one example,many abound.Across Africa.

Still on technology. How safe is it for a pregnant woman to deliver through surgical operation in nigeria and kenya. In ghana operation are carried out on women while chatting with her no sleeping drugs. Infact some women in ghana now prefer surgical opertion.

I had a cousin who did a CS twice under anesthesia. She says she felt everything being done on her during procedure.

Are you talking of the drugs that only numb the abdomen and lower body?

do you know after inkrumah was rejected by his own people he left for guinea conakry where he was place as co president of that country. He was able to share his pan africanism idea and he was a leading member in the foundation of OAU as it was known as at then. He did not only talk. He walk the talk. But he has some saboteur around him whom he consider as friend. So most of his idea were under accomplished. Till date . No ghana president has been able to achieve his lagacy.

no a technology that allow you yourself the patient to take part in the CS. no drugs is involve...it a form of mechanism that was develop to relax the pain feel in abdomen and lower body. Usa and uk are ahead. So the idea is borrow from them

Just a kind request. Never ever put Idi Amin in the same statement with such respected East African statesmen like Nyerere amd Kenyatta. He has his peers in people like Hitler.

Nyerere built one of the most peaceful and cohesive societies in Africa that is Tanzania, but his policy of Ujamaa, a brand of socialism he formulated and experimented with in Tanzania flopped badly. Tanzania instead of progressing, failed economically. The effect of his brand of socialism was catastrophic, some estimates claim that upto 90% of the population of Tanzania was living in abject poverty. He ackmowledged his mistake and opted to abdicate his position as president in 1985, the first ever African head of state to do so. He is still highly revered almoost like a god in Tanzania

Kenyatta's Kenya on the other hand was progressing quite well economically, he believed strongly in capitalism, having witnessed for himself the effects of both the communist and capitalist systems in his long stay in both Russia and Britain in the 20s and 30s. He borrowed much of his economic policies from Britain and America, Kenya in the late 60s and 70s was the fastest growing economy amongst the newly independent black states, with the economy growing at betwn 6% and 20%. In 1975 for example, yhe Kenyan economy grew at a record 22%.
However his regime was marked with widespread corruption, tribalism, greed, repression and heis accused of having grabbed huge chunks of the most feryile lands in different parts of the country- almost 500,000 acres, whilst millions of Kenyans had no land to till, forcing them to move into cities and many ended up in slums, such as Kibera.

despite the fact that he fails in the end . he was a man who walked the talk. you know CIA masterminded his over throw. to date the projects he left behind are still serving the purpose. his plan was to make an African super power and he was moving to avaheive it. he is among the first leader's that got to understand the strong grip of neo coloniasm helped by the black eggs in his county. I wonder why the airport is still named kotoka. after a man that sold the country on a cheap platter.

no on the contray he walked the talk. he was not a perfect man. if there was something he lacked in his government is a strong system of unity among he and his cohorts. just like what South Korea did.. black are divided by religious,wthnic and tribal lines and will not mind of an external force brings their heart desire to a precived enemy

exactly my point. but the reality is not the case. go to see borderline and see the amount of truck's waiting for clearance enter the country. so many unessary verification under the guise of chopping money. the reality of a free movement only exist on paper. but I must laud addo in taking a bold step in making that change. he went to go and told them to keep the aflao border open 247..

The vast majority of Ugandans view Idi Amin with a lot of revulsion. He killed hundreds of thousands of people, detained or forced millions into exile and ruined the economy of Uganda.

Anyway, where in Africa isnt nepotism practiced? Such is the nature of the African politics.
Nepotism happens in Kenya, but it isnt as extreme as the case in say Uganda or Angola where the president can even appoint his wife and children to a very important positions in govt, even groom their children as heir apparent and operate the country as though it is a family business. It is not like that in Kenya, not very likely due to the certaim provisions in our comstitution. The govt appointee MUST be vetted by the senate, and the nomineee for the position has to earn tje approval from both the opposition and govt senators.


So, the president can only appoint his political buddies, but family members........nope.

Comparing expatriate's life in SA vs Kenya vs Nigeria... At least Kenya is attempting to give SA a run for her money .. Nigeria behind in 95% of the time in all the criteria
