Rubbish, Kenya that is sold out to the Anglozionist empire. The zonist run their banks. Who is running the rubbish award ? Is it not the same anglozionist ?? Kenya there, that even fellow African cannot open a bank account, they will tell he or she to go and marry first to get one foolish pin to open ordinary bank account oh.. Foreign banks run Kenya,

Dont ever compare it to Nigeria where all the banks in Nigeria are mainly locally owned and foreign banks in Nigeria cannot come in because they love to set the rules. In Nigeria, the local runs the bank not some foreign crooks and Central bank in Nigeria set the rules and does not always listen to their puppet master WORLD bank/IMF.

Don't ever in your life compare a sold out country Economically to a country where everything is runned by a few though but who are Nigerians.

Who gives a damn care about Nigeria?its just a senior shithole nation in Africa.Always think they've made it in life to have dissed other Africans.

That's upto you with your level of ignorance and stupidity,now you want me to send you a tutorial on that?if you have degraded your understanding on that thread,you weren't supposed to quote me with your lame desperations.

Now Equity,KCB,Cooperative,Jamii bank,National bank of Kenya,KWFT and among others,are they also runned by foreign banks??

Well,it seems you're freakingly idiot with mentality thinking that everything in Kenya is owned by a white,and your lazy brothers are also another group of fools on this...
Just go and kick the asses of boko haram out of your own country instead of streaming online to fight with other Africans and feeling jealousy for them.
Nobody barred you from posting dangote nation's stuffs in this racist forum of yours..

Nothing you say above/bellow makes any sense. You did not address the real fact. Mention how many Locally owned banks in Kenya and how many foreign banks ? This is a fact ok. You have a completely sold out country to the zionist forces. They cannot do the same thing to Nigeria.

It's not news any longer that Boko haram is their proxy forces which has lost the war both Politically and militarily. Since you don't know anything or even how the anglozionist empire operate. You need more lesson, learner. As if Kenya does not even have its fair share of the anglozionist sponsored terrorist.. 'al shabaab'..

I got no time for stupid post like this.. it's even inferiority complex to put up a post like this. Comparing a completely sold out country to Nigeria.
I can mention top 22 Banks in West Africa owned by Nigerians.
