Nigeria ranks sixth worldwide and first in Africa in farm output. The sector accounts for about 18% of GDP and almost one-third of employment. Nigeria has 19 million head of cattle, the largest in Africa.[29] Though Nigeria is no longer a major exporter, due to local consumer boom, it is still a major producer of many agricultural products, including: cocoa, groundnuts (peanuts), rubber, and palm oil. Cocoa production, mostly from obsolete varieties and overage trees has increased from around 180,000 tons annually to 350,000 tons.

You're just a joker. or well a joke.

see who is talking, are u not d one embarrassing yourself here trying to show us ur "advanced Kenya " I can't say that without laughing. look man ur brothers are tired of disgracing themselves so they left everything for u , I advice u just make like a Kenyan marathoner and run

rvp20182:
I am here to stay. This is so much fun.

rvp20182:
That is summary done by someone who was misled by Nigeria GDP. Totally misled.

Let put figures. Nigeria has 19M head of cattle. Big news. 10yrs ago (Kenya CENSUS 2009)...Kenya had cattle (18 million), sheep (18 million), goats (28 million). camels(3 million) pigs (334,689) and poultry (31 million)

Please put metric tonnes of latest production figure for cocoa (you can even use ivory coast or ghana more credible figures), ground nuts, rubber and palm oil.

freshest4live:

ok, for Nigeria it is...
72.5million goats, 41.3million sheep, 7.1million pigs, 28000camels, 145million chickens, 11.6million ducks, 1.2million turkeys, 974,499 donkeys. Are you satisfied now

rvp20182:
Yeah - I checked that - and seem you did some sampling - the figures look about okay to me. Now how much is your livestock sector worth - note - we are talking say beef sold per annum - I know when it comes to milk - you import billions of milk powder so there is very little those fulani cows bring.

I think our livestock sector is 1-2b dollars (see this thread for when I did estimation) - I am going to say Nigeria is thrice that - so give take - 3-6 billion dollars.

Next - you're just about 10 dollars now. Cereal 4 billion dollars. Livestock 6 billion ( - and I am being very generous - just to encourage you!).

freshest4live:

OK thanks for the encouragement, I think 10billion dollars is even too much, and those figures I posted earlier were cooked by corrupt Nigerians, I think we are even about 5Billion dollars.
To be honest, Kenya is simply the best, my eyes just got opened now from my research.

rvp20182:
Sorry but facts are stubborn. It's not my fault that Nigerian GDP just doesn't make sense and your attempt at defending it has come a gropper! Yeah I think if I was brutal with the figures - like kenyans are - 5b dollars is about right - I inflated the cereals by adding 100 dollars per tonne(price) - and now you livestock sector maybe is mas 4b dollars - all the eggs in the world are worthless trust me.

As you can already see - Nigeria will struggle to get to 20B dollars!

freshest4live:

Exactly, Nigeria is such a poor country, and it would take her many years to get to the level of advanced Kenya my dream country.

rvp20182:
That is very true. You just need oil to hit 15-20 dollars a barrel before Nigeria is exposed.

rvp20182:
I am here to stay. This is so much fun.

obaaderemi:
I am even enjoying this more than you. The way we are passing you around and showing the insignificance of your country. See chart below for more heartache for you and your folks. Let me explain the chart because it may confuse you: It's about agricultural density per African countries. You can see how green Nigeria is(about 60%) and how grey Kenya is(20%). Kenya's agriculture is toooo poor.

why is it that its only this thread you hang around....??

dont you have other interests....??

We need all the foreign investment we can get. So guys its ok to invest in Kenya. But just remember Kenya is a grave yard for many African wanna be companies. I think Dangote was smart to jump ship …

rvp20182:
I guess we can't blame you. Poor education mean you can't even do the basic mathematics.

Let try Total Nigeria budget = Total federal budget + Internal Generated Revenue (excl federal allocation) in 36 states ( or You can also try federal budget+state budget - federal allocation).

Total federal budget = $29B
Total state allocation (N9.5 trillion Naira - remove the federal allocation - otherwise you'll be double counting) - I think you get left with 8-9B dollars
Total =29+8=$37B

Kenya = Total budget for 2018/2019 (30B with 3B being county allocation +1-2B which counties will generate) =$32B

It either basic maths is the problem or the valueless Naira is deluding you. The thing is worth 4 Kshs.

Mr. Onyekpere criticised the entire budget outlay, arguing that although the total N8.612 trillion “appears high in Naira terms,” it actually amounted to a “paltry $28.24 billion.”

Nigeria economy is supposed to be the biggest in Africa. But, we are the lowest, both in per capita budget figures and in absolute terms. Nigeria is in the middle among South Africa, Algeria, Egypt and Angola.

“This year, South Africa is budgeting about $116 billion, against Nigeria’s $23 billion, despite being the highest appropriation ever. Angola is doing $124 billion; Algeria $53 billion and Egypt $40 billion.

The question to ask - is WHY IS ANGOLA spending 124B dollars - while Nigeria who are top 10 petrol oil sellers in the world are doing 28B - What is WRONG WITH YOU GUYS. You mean all that oil is just siphoned off? You let shell steal the whole of it? I mean you guys don't even know the offshore oil where it goes

WHAT IS WRONG WITH NIGERIA?

Calm down ..ya might have an heart attack.What am saying with all the oil ya got why cant you have something like your fellow oil producers ..like Dubai

nwoke37:


On a serious note, Nigeria's budget is wayyyyy too small especially for our large population. No wonder our infrastructure is dilapidated, our education system is in a bad state, our health sector failing... golly Nigeria needs to do something about it. Somalia and Nigeria have similar age expectancies!
Just to think when Nigeria first started out we were ahead of China, now China has gone far to even almost superpower status. I weep for my dear country. Corruption and very bad leadership has ruined Nigeria. Chai!

We're still waiting for the right president to take us out this very sad position. I dare say, Nigeria needs some sort of revolution.

well, we keep repeating to you fools that Nigeria budgeting system damn different from that of any country in Africa, Nigeria is no Kenya's mate in Most aspects.
Twenty states (OUT OF 37 STATES) that have so far presented their 2018 budgets are proposing to spend a total sum of N6.1 trillion (around 20B$) + Federal government Budgets
Twenty states that have so far presented their 2018 budgets are proposing to spend a total sum of N6.1 trillion.

When the remaining 16 states present theirs, the proposed total expenditure by all the states would definitely be higher than the Federal Government’s N8.6 trillion budget.

The budgets of Cross River and Lagos states account for 38 percent of this N6.1 trillion, as they are the first states in the country’s history to hit a trillion threshold in the annual budget.

The concern in this seeming competition among the states to present higher budget is how they will get the money to fully implement their budgets, knowing their revenues either come from federation account allocation or internally generated revenue (IGR).

As of October, the combined total allocation to all the states from the federation account was N1.4 trillion, higher than the N1.3 trillion of 2016. The average allocation to a state this year is N38 billion while last year’s was N36 billion.

NOTE: The funding for this budgets usually comes from Internal generated Revenue or from international lenders
N14. 91 billion
Here is the breakdown of 2017 IGR across the states
Adamawa N6.20 billion

Akwa Ibom 15. 95 billion

Dangote didn't necessarily jump ship because of competition. He only rescheduled the building of a factory in Kenya. i think around 2020 ish. Dangote faces competition in Nigeria and is a multinational with planned expansions in Asia. Dangote has no reson to fear competion in Kenya.

254tobby:


You're not even serious of what you're saying,dangote refused to invest in Kenya because the policies that were put to him by Kenya's top decision makers didn't favour his sight and so he labelled us being corrupt,and that's how his deal with Kenya vanished,moreso Kenyan manufacturing and retail market are so competitive that Africa's economy giants like south Africa and Nigeria have been finding a difficult time to strip in..

What does dangote want to invest in Kenya if not his cement?there are many cement factories in Kenya which are trailing in east Africa,the likes of bamburi,east Africa Portland just to mention but a few.

Dangote just want to manipulate things the way he feels like without considering the results of his investment in other foreign soil,and so Tanzanian government was not hellbent on that making dangote to close his cement factory in Tanzania..

kikuyu2:
I think rvp20182 excellent analysis has escaped you guys but for the rest of us the mystery of Dangoteland's missing half trillion dollar GDP has been solved. Sometimes we need to draw simpler pictures. If you're a regular gym goer you'll have seen such guys.
With his impressive looking chest he's actually weak,weak AF in fact! Lacking leg strength his unbalanced development prevents proper lifting techniques-he'll either peak quickly or injure himself fast. The second guy is honest-a dwarf.
Dangotelanders,imo,you fall between the two though I'm inclined to classify you as the little dude. What makes it hilarious is that you don't see your true condition having been blinded by years of the 'Giant' mantra,invented by those same who put you in this sorry situation.

I simply don't understand how Angola can have $124B dollars and Nigeria has way less....and yet I think Nigeria sell more petro-dollars than Angola. Nigeria need a revolution.

[b] Angolan lawmakers on Wednesday approved a 9.6 trillion kwanza ($45.69 billion) s[/b]tate budget for this year forecasting 4.9 percent economic growth, well beyond the 1.6 percent expected by the International Monetary Fund.
