ROA is directly proportional to investment. It only shows that ur banks are just investing in d sector ( which is a good thing ). Most of ur banks are just stepping up their game.

Please tell me why you are always hating
No city is built in a day. The eko Atlantic City (EAC) has over 40% of its land brought up.
There are currently three completed building with the city and the shortest being 15 stories!!
It only the only city in Africa and one of few in the world to have a complex and
yet modern intra-city maritime transport
It has over a 100,000 trees planted in the city
One of Africa's longest promenade under construction
When completed probably a decade or two would have more high rise than any country in Africa
Check skyscrapercity for more information and picture

U dy mind him?? .. Of only he knew how irrelevant his country is to us

When EAC is fully functioning, he might die of shock

Tree planting at EAC has been ongoing for long...

Eko pearl and champagne tower already completed... office space are being sold out already

The three towers at Eko energy estate still under construction

Azruri pennisula still under construction... it's coming in hot

Road and bridges completed at EAC

EAC already hosted some great events since.... eg: Copa Lagos, Africa beach soccer Championship,lagos marathon, beach polo, Lagos Fashion Week...

Cheaper than the Japs and Germans but more expensive than the Chinese........Great value for money and unlike those Chinese knockoffs Mahindra Group is a corporate powerhouse and been in business since 1945. Mahindra is a major supplier of vehicles to the Indian defence force and the toughness can be seen in their civilian vehicles as well.

Did you just call Volvo a Chinese knockoff? Im offended They may have been acquired by the chinese but they deserve some respect! Thats the model for liberals! These days they are really pushing electric and driverless cars. Not to mention that without Volvo you wouldnt be enjoying the safety of a standard three-point seat belt.

Only Nigerians are impressed by EAC - coz you're so used to mediocrity. Look at what Luanda has done in 10yrs with Oil - they have built more than 50 skyscrappers and turn around their country. Nairobi has more skcrappers than Lagos+EKO combined...and even more planned!

Two more lessons Nigeria can learn from kenya in the financial sector -
1) Mobile Money/Commerce where kenya is the global leader - running now one of the world busiest payment systems in terms of transactions
2) Co-operative movement (SACCOS) where Kenya is leads in Africa and no 7# globally. This cooperative movement allows kenyan to beat the big banks and also to pull resources to invest jointly. The nation motto of "Harambee" or pulling together is exemplified in these co-operative movement, groups (micro-finance is big in kenya) and in fundraising - where people contribute to build schools, churches and etc on regular basis.

Kenya has the best Cooperative Movement in Africa.
The Cooperative Movement in Kenya is ranked in first position in Africa and seventh globally with over 15 000 registered cooperative societies according to the International Cooperative Alliance.

truth is bitter to we nigerians so we relish the comfort of lies even though deep down we know the truth that nigeria is severly fvcked up in all sectors.we should be far ahead of not just kenya but many african countries due to our undeserved abundance of natural and human resources.but most of the average nigerian is oblivious of his rights and sees suffering as a privilage rather than rebel against it ,we adapt and with time get comfortable.thats why countless projects,factories,schools,hospitals,economic sectors etc has remained in thier "comfortable" degrading state for years and we have all adapted to it....

Underlying the impressive co-operative movement in Kenya lies the Cooperative Bank of Kenya - the largest of it's kind in Africa (and third biggest bank in Kenya)- CO-OP Bank joined the top global 1000 banks in 2013 and has slowly climbed it's way - and soon will be part of top Africa 25 banks. Co-operative Bank is owned by SACCOS - kenyans rather than allow commercial banks to take their money and lend them back - start SACCOS where they remit their money and borrow against it - and those SACCOS banks in CO-OP which they jointly own.

For more than 20yrs - Kenyan indigenous banks have been growing at incredible pace - and post the highest return on assets in Africa and globally - all thanks to aggressive innovation & expansion - from time when Barclays & Standard Chartered were big banks - to now when they are nearly out of top 5 banks - lies Kenyan ingenuity and hard-work that explain why kenya is largest NON-MINERAL economy in sub-saharan Africa. A well diversified liberal open-market economy under-pinned by a well educated workforce.

Nigeria like to imagine themselves as the Tech Scene of Africa -When you probe - all you hear is Jumia? Andela? but obviously they've got nothing on Kenya. First the infrastructure for tech has been laid in kenya - Kenya long laid fiber in nearly all towns and most of the big cities.
As you can see broadband speed in kenya are amongst the world BEST. Pick any report on Africa tech scene - and kenya comes top of Nigeria - despite the 200M people in the giant. Even Jumia itself - acknowledge kenya has more smartphone than Nigeria

Your assertion is meaningless. Online and offline, no one attacks Nigeria as much as Nigerians themselves while other Africans try to cover their own mess. These Kenyans and black south Africans here are a case in point.

overtook South Africa in 2017, although significantly

This thread is so childish....2 countries fighting to massage their egos when both countries are looked upon as *shitholes

Correct man!I used to be very active on this thread until Trump labelled Africa a shiithole. No African country is doing well apart from those tiny countries such as Mauritius and Seychelles. And a couple of north African states. Food and employment are still major problems I. Nigeria and Kenya. So many people live in slums in both countries. Terrorism exists in both, manufacturing is low in both, Nigeria imports rice while Kenya imports maize. It's just plain silly. Skyscrapers in both countries are not up to 100. A tiny country like hong Kong has over 1000.

This is one of ur baseless points..... posting a 2012/2013 table on ROA.

here's 2017 list below.

See,bro, it's better to forget these petty people. The fact that they are spending more time on a Nigerian internet site than Nigerians reveals a lot about them and their level of insecurity.

You can cherry-pick whichever works best for you or Nigeria but realisticcally & for comparative purpose - and if you're interested in accuracy - we can go 3 or 5 yrs - and see the trend. For instance - remove Andela 40M usd funding in 2017- there is nothing Nigeria has on Kenya and South Africa. Therefore the most accurate comparison is to check say the last 3 or 5 yrs ...and clearly see when it come to TECH in AFRICA...we are talking 1) South Africa 2) KENYA.

Fact is a the "giant" with GDP of $500B GDP hahaha and tonnes of petrodollars is struggling against small country named Kenya.

And facts are stubborn - very stubborn things - you can shout or insult or do what Nigeria like to do - engage in ad hominem & spew choice epithet - but those will NEVER replace facts.

And the FACT is your country NIGERIA is one BIG GIANT JOKE.

2017 Partech report on Africa Tech funding


Again - remove Andela funding - from last yr - the status quo is maintained as far as Africa Tech Scene goes - South Africa then Kenya.

Nigeria did overtake South Africa in terms of total funding raised, though this was primarily accounted for by Andela’s US$40 million round in October

And Andela Nairobi is probably already eating Andela Lagos cake I reckon Nairobi probably already have more Andela software engineers than Andela Lagos. Giant indeed.

Andela alone raised 40m dollars which is more than the whole funding gotten by Kenya. Go and carve Andela out. http://weetracker.com/2018/01/02/african-startup-funding-report-2017/ The Lagos tech scene,my friend, dwarfs the Nairobi tech scene, sorry you brought this upon yourself.

Andela is in Nairobi - so that money will surely end up in Kenya. And again if you go by Disrupt - Nigeria minus Andela - would still be in usual 3rd position after Kenya. If you go by Partech which track not only funding to companies HQ in Africa but elsewhere but that does business in Africa - the Kenya raised far more funding than Nigeria.

The fact is Nairobi Tech scene ran circle around Lagos(Nigeria). You can split hairs the whole day, cherry-pick or nitpick but those are stubborn facts. Nairobi and Joburg are the big boys - and Lagos is struggling there- despite being a giant.

This month saw the release of the Global Startup Ecosystem Report and Ranking 2017, produced by Startup Genome in collaboration with the Global Entrepreneurship Network. Its findings, based on conversations with entrepreneurs and data on startups, made for interesting reading. No single African country made the top 20 ranking on the list, but Lagos, Cape Town and Johannesburg warranted mention in the report. Lagos has the most valuable startup ecosystem in Africa, with the local entrepreneurship scene worth around US$2 billion. The Lagos ecosystem has the ninth highest rate of founders with an undergraduate degree at 59 per cent, while 93 per cent of them have a technical background, the third highest rate in the world. However, Lagos startups have one of the lowest rates of foreign customers, suggesting challenges exist for those 11% of companies looking to go global. Cape Town is the largest startup ecosystem on the African continent, with between 700 and 1,200 active tech startups in the city. The whole ecosystem, however, is valued at US$172 million, well below both Lagos and Johannesburg. One-third of Cape Town startup founders have gained at least two years of prior experience in a fast-growing startup, making them five per cent more experienced than the global average. The ecosystem with the highest global connectedness was Johannesburg, which also has an ecosystem value of US$1.36 billion. The city has the third highest percentage of startups globally that experienced positive corporate interest and involvement, at 67 per cent. The global average is at 51 per cent.

You see what shervydman said about you and your baseless facts. Andela Nairobi is just a fraction of Andela, so only a fraction of that money will end up in Kenya, the lion share remains in Lagos as shown by this chart below. And I think your writing is long winded.That's unnecessary.
