SO HOW DO WE NOW CHECK "correctness or validity of GDP "?

If you need to go 30yrs ago - you'll see our forex has grown with our GDP/Import/debts - and has NEVER been an issue! Our economy is so diversified - no one sector bring forex or takes forex!


And Nigeria swings with OIL. You're NOTHING without oil. Zero economy. Just agragrian primitive economy that relies on oil.


Here is the oil graph

rvp2018:
And do you even know how to read the graph . Our forex are non-issues. They can swing btw say 8-10 - with CBK buying or selling them - we have more than enough and it's never been an issues. This is not nigeria where it swing wildly with OIRO.
Let me help you with 10yr graph


And Nigeria


As you can see like blackouts - forex is non-issue in kenya - nobody has heard since 1992 that one ran short of forex or couldn't buy it or there was black market to buy forex.

Fellow Kenyan,do you wonder like me if these guys are dumb,dyslexic,delusional or simply illiterate? It wouldn't surprise me with Naij's abysmal quality in all things if these posters unable to read a graph actually have uni degrees! IIRC before you came a genius somehow managed to misread a graph of Africa's fastest growing towns,nearly all Kenyan (ofc,you know which towns as Kumasi!).

....JASON THE NAIJA DUDE

I hope these are the worst bunch but based on the evidence so far - it obvious the country is one big zoo like somalia. It just a little better because it got lots of oil..which they have wasted.

Lagos was the seventh largest economy in Africa in 2014 with gdp of $90 billion guess what number it is now?
sources -
https://qz.com/676819/lagos-is-afric...rst-oil-finds/
I think numbers differ on different stats...
in 2017 its gdp hit $136 billion( Lagos grew during the Nigerian recession)
http://sunnewsonline.com/lagos-gdp-hits-136b-ambode/

Nigeria having a GDP if $573 billion alone is enough to tell you that your source is crap. (and what's wrong with you guys? One minute you say your GDP is $400B the next it jumps by $173B to $573B? lol)

NOTE : please don't post that dead sex corner Uhuru Park

I love the way the government is building parks in between the expressways... its beautiful

You fall my hand by explaining to them about Lagos.Lagos is not their Daddy's mate

68816419:

And who told lagos aint building infrastures,lagos is building power plants, might roads, hospitals, water supply, industries and many more

1. Expand the Lekki-Epe expressway by taking out three roundabouts – 4th Roundabout (Elegushi), 5th Roundabout (Jakande) and 8th Roundabout (VGC) – to decongest traffic.

2. The construction of fly over bridges
3. Expandsuion of over more than three thousands (3000) roads

4. Install 6,000 street lights to support the Light-Up Lagos initiative.

5. Install 13,000 Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras and security sensors across the state, for surveillance and the prevention of crime. This will begin by September 2016, and should be completed in 18 months.

6. Implement the Lagos Enterprise GIS (EGIS) upgrade and the Integrated Land Administration Automation System. This will ensure proper monitoring of government infrastructure for optimum benefits, fast-track the ease of doing business, and improve government-citizen relationship.
7. Lagos light rail projects
8. Lekki Airport (new airport)
9. Lekki free trade zone (worth more than $45B), Dangote Industries
10. Badagary see ports
11. Bus rapid Transport (BRT) all over lagos
.........

Yeah - 3 round abouts is big deal - and footbriges. Bus stops. E-GIS. CCTV. You guys need to visit functioning city. Nairobi is one such smart city...as you droll about 13,000 cctv cameras...Nairobi already implemented all that. We spend [b]150M usd [/b]to install not only CCTV cameras but intelligent cameras including facial recognition, number plate recognition & police commands centers in Nairobi & Mombasa..that is why we have reduced terror attack to nearly zero....despite bordering Somalia.



Unlike Lagos - which is a thug paradise - you can't try any such in Nairobi or Mombasa - because chance are - there is an intelligent camera watching you - with intelligent face recognition and if you have car - your plate recognition- and we have functioning 991!

Watch Nairobi beat crime.

And what's the big deal about that,do you know when Lagos started using CCTV,Lagos is just extending more to inner cities and not just the island. Like now oshodi and other areas now have CCTVs with CCTV surveillance security patrol vehicles, surveying the axis to avoid any breach of tranquility.

In no time,Lagos smart street light will be the one monitoring traffic

These are not dumb CCTV like you. These are intelligent cameras - a contract we gave China's Huawei - for Naira 60 Billion. Can Nigeria with their small budget afford to buy CCTV for 60 billion Naira?

This is the project: Which has been functional for 2-3 yrs now. A mismanaged Nigeria can only dream about what Kenya does!! and without OIL.

The IPSCSS17 will result in the installation of
1) 1,800 CCTV cameras with [b]face and motor vehicle number plate recognition capabilities [/b]in strategic locations in Kenya’s two big cities of Mombasa and Nairobi;
2) setting up a command and control centre where footage from the CCTV cameras and handheld devices will be relayed in real time; a video conferencing system;
3) connecting 195 police stations with high-speed internet;
4) the development of a 4G LTE18 network for the police with 80 base stations;
5) supplying the police with 7,600 radio communication devices with SIM cards and photo and video capability;
6) and linking 600 police vehicles to the command and control centre.

And all Nigeria can dream is some island or gated community having half of that

I have seen Nigerian police - I think they are the worst I have seen - remind me of Uganda police in 90s - right from their uniforms. They are worse than kenya watchman. That happens when there is no budget for the police. We spend nearly 2B dollars on our police...for cars..alone...we don't buy...we lease brand new cars every year for something close to 30B naira. Nigerian simply don't have the money for modern policing..except maybe in 2 or 3 island or gated community.

Some cities in africa develop faster than others. You take a city like lagos the government tries a lot . The net result is most of the people in the city development and planning of the city have never worked in a developed country or a developed city. Someone posted bus terminal it is a good idea but in reality it is 1 step forward 5 steps backwards. If you look at most of these developments in lagos high percentage off the things I imported example the bus , the streetlight, the bulbs, the cctv, the traffic lights and even the contracts are giving to companies which are not based in the country.so In reality it does not benefits and unemployment is also high

all their constant electricity (like they claim to have), infrastructure , CCTV camera , industries (all these things that RSVP and his brothers claim to have )lol , still Nairobi has no GDP. SMH

And even the one Kenya has is cooked.

Let me first finish reading the fact that you can't afford to open your car windows in lagos - otherwise your phone will be gone. Is that 2002? Are smartphones that damn expensive. Thugs with guns breaking car windows?

Please kindly accept the fact that Lagos is crappy little mega slum and can't be compared to Nairobi...

I mean after struggling the whole day with generator..going back home to your electricity less, water less, sewage less house...you still have to battle thugs amid horrendous traffic in some of the most grotesque public transport. I really feel for you guys. And then you switch on the generator again at home and whole city start the humming along in the most annoying generator din - that will kill me.

And lets not talk about Okada - the motorbike for today - I know they are in kenya - but not in nigeria number - okada noise+generator noise - that got to drive many folks insane.

For the umpteenth time cooked GDP cannot be EATEN. It just one tool politician use to delude you. In your poverty you think you're the best in Africa - better than South Africa or Egypt. That is grand delusion. I mean it's still deluded to think the quality of life in say Ghana or Kenya is equal to Nigeria but that is forgivable.

Just travel to any Africa country - and you'll only compare nigeria to South Sudan, Somali,Burundi, DRC, Niger and Chad. Check any serious indices - not GDP - and you'll see Nigeria ranked bottom 10 - after Haiti, Chad, Niger, Burundi, South Sudn, Somalia, Central Africa Rep and maybe where else is life that bad? Benin and Togo maybe? Liberia & Sieraleone? Or Eritrea? And maybe Yemen? And Madagascar island. The very bottom 10-20 in every indices out there.

Ask any nigerian who has travelled to Nairobi or Kenya!! to tell you just how crappy and desperate your life is in Lagos.

But your politician will tell you're the African giant with biggest economy. The 21st century joke! Better than South Africa and Egypt - nigger nigeria?
