My friend nobody I know is complaining about blackout in kenya. Biggest beef is cost of power. Kenya electricity supply is almost as good as Europe. That is my personal experience. It gets better every day.

samorobo:
That your do have blackout regularly.

What are trying to say Sammy

samorobo:
Not video,but post on YouTube that notifies suscribers to be ready for when the next contents(videos) drops.

Something like this.

You're obsessed with Kenya because you know it's your future. Kenya is not at South Africa level but definitely it better than you Zoo in almost everything. Kenya is pretty progressive country that is functional.

samorobo:
You are stupid.the Kenya have been seeing lately is Nigeria of like 3 decades back. Imagine every where in your zoo irritates me. You aren’t that different from Togo and the likes to be very honest.

Kenyan on Zimbwabwe - Kenyan are very worldly thanks to our very high education

LOL - where is the video of kenyans complaining of blackouts?

samorobo:
That’s a lie,I have heard miss Trudy and a couple of Kenyan you tubers complain about blackout on their YouTube post severally last year. The claimed it’s what’s causing a delay in releasing g their contents.

Btw half your country’s have ne we witnessed an electric bulb glow in their life.

You're not at kenya level - THAT IS THE POINT- you cluster in every index out there with worse of the worst..Niger, Burundi, South Sudan, Chad and such countries.

samorobo:
That’s funny and ironic,cos as much as I remember you keeps calling our gdp fake since ours and SA is similar and SA looks more developed. Were was your knowledge back then on per capita? Was it on a vacation to the Bahamas?

But Lekki deep sea port is smaller than Lamu. Settled.

samorobo:
Trying to let you know how that gigantic port is swimming in a sea of other serious economic activities (project). You get it now.

We had half day blackout in the entire year and we complained bittery. Do you even understand that is like developed world standard.

samorobo:
You also can’t lecture me on electricity.you’ve been having blackouts lately not to mention the fact that half the country’s population is not connected to the grid and doesn’t know what an electric bulb looks like. Pls save it,Kenya is one irrelevant zoo that’s doesn’t deserve my respect and honor.

On Nigeria - generally positive vibe from Kenya - great people trying their best in the worst zoo.

The guy who nails it say - Nigeria has so much resources- it really has no excuse to be a zoo.

Interesting video on what Kenyans think about South Africa. Apart from two idiots at middle of the video - pretty solid observation.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HeDEiWT3N8

There is something you did not notice - it called per capita. When Kenya get to Morroco and Algeria level - probably by 2030 - it will have as good infrastructure as current Morocco/Algeria.

Algeria, Morroco and South Africa are proper middle class countries - or upper middle income countries - morroco may not be there yet but basically Kenya need to double it's per capita to get there.

Compare Algeria with South Africa - NOT KENYA.

samorobo:
Btw,have you noticed how close the Kenyan economy is to that of Morocco and Algeria.but there is this strange disparity in terms of Infrastructure. Almost every inch of Morocco and Algeria is developed. Good infrastructure e en to the most remote areas, their urban infrastructure is superb. Same level with most European countries.

I was expecting to see the same in Kenya. What do you think happened?

You shifted from ports to refineries?

samorobo:
Add dangote refinery(biggest in the world), fertilizer (biggest in the world),Alaro,idiom Lagos alongside this one all in thesame axis.now start envisioning the multiplier effect it will have. That place will be an economic hotspot that might grow to surpass the entire kenyan economy whether or not you choose to keep cooking.

Fix electricity first - otherwise you're comparing Kenya with developed world standards - looking at footpaths and paved streets - while your zoo is shocking.

samorobo:
You can’t lecture me on anything slum or urbanization,but rather I would advise you channel that energy into telling me why every where I turn to in Kenya is one dirty slum deprived of so much as motorable roads and decent settlement .it’s either giving off backwater village vibe or kibera slum vibe. And at best umoja and Zimmerman kinda of vibe. All of those four cities you mentioned are slum.yes you heard me right cos I have seen it all. It will be a miracle to drive through Mombasa without falling into a well of potholes.it’s that bad. Kenya for the most part looks extremely underdeveloped and you know this.all this online bleating wouldn’t change shiit,I am more Enlightened about the state of your zoo,so yeah I know better. There is free evidence all over the net,you don’t even need to look to hard to find one. It’s that quick and easy.


P.s I purposely gave you a 1hour ride of Enugu so it’s doesn’t look like I selectively picked some decent location of 3 minutes like most of your content creators like to do to fools the masses/viewers(but definitely not me). I wanted you to see endless streams of decency not selective cherry picked clips for cheap antics.

You do realize the Zoo is twice kenya landmass and has 4 times it's population. Kenya has 4 decent cities and very many towns for a country with urbanization of 30 percent. Your zoo with urbanization of 50 percent is one huge slumpolis after slumpolis.

samorobo:
Look Migeria might not be the best,but Atleast we try our best to create a decent sustanable settlement. When next you want to develop a town,come down to Nigeria for a roadmap zookenya. See how decent a typical town like Enugu looks like.enjoy the extensive drive and barely any pot hole on the road. Very motorable roads,and this is a replica across Nigeria. I repeat outside those East African standard 3 cbd’s for wealthy foreigners like Nigeria s and the likes,the rest of Kenya is one dirty poverty zoo slum in dire need of infrastructural miracle. You can only heckle Uganda but never Nigeria. We’ve seen it all.

When it come to hospitality no college come close to utalii in Africa

They are comparing Ghana and Kenya - we have seen similar videos with similar conclusion. Ghana is close to Nigeria - it's a mini zoo. Kenya is as good as developed countries.

Just40:
no one is arguing anything

It's not my fault that you can't read or when you read, you can't understand..The comparison she's making is between Ghana and USA, where she is from.

It's good to know that your brain cannot comprehend anything but useless argument.

Lunatic

Are you arguing with me or with the two girls? Take your meds mad man.

Just40:
lunatic rants again

Read this on your country water issues where water only flows once or twice a week. Where people walk miles to fetch water right in the middle of Nairobi...

https://theconversation.com/time-and-trauma-what-fetching-water-costs-women-and-girls-in-nairobis-informal-settlements-172425

Like I've told you before, you don't always have to compare yourself with Ghana because 97% of the time, Ghana has it better.

Ofcourse when you are used to having your light not go off over long period of times, you'll be annoyed when it goes off because a new service station has to be connected.

She described Ghanaian roads to be trash because she lived in a newly developing area whose roads were still being developed and the traffic she had to go through to get to her area.
Still Kenyan roads is not a match

Sewage and garbage is the reason why Cholera is killing Kenyans by the day... That should tell you that you have it worse.

Westernized does not mean developed, it means that you are a lost sheep dressing like slaves( as she described you guys) and copying anything you see because of your brainwashing.


Everyone in Ghana speaks English but no one will ever approach you anywhere on the street speaking English and you will be compelled to learn a Ghanaian language..

Kenyans are just illiterate as we've seen on this platform, you guys usually knows nothing hence why this platform bis still going. And this illiteracy is not because you guys don't speak English but because you guys a typically dumb or engineered to be dumb.

Usual lame excuses. What shocked you - Power and Water outage in the mini zoo of Ghana

The interview like others before is a gem

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SP8P19RxIWk

1) Ghana power and water problems - as good as Nigeria.
2) Ghana hounding Nigerians - worse than TZ does to Kenya - South Africa need to go for benchmarking to deal with immigrant menace
3) Now on Kenya - roads in Kenya are better - Ghana roads rubbish
4) Sewers and garbage all over Accra and Ghana
5) Ghanians cultured - Kenya westernized - as good as developed world.
6) English - again - like Kenya girl said - Ghana cant speak it Even uber driver cant speak English to save their own life. 10 percent of Ghanian speak English - the rest are like we see here - illiterates;
7) Ghana expensive - very expensive - accra especially.

last year, East Legon suffered a few outages for a period of a month because of the Pokuasi BSP interconnection

Very beautiful.

Since gallivant taught you about "forming in the mouth," you've forever misused the term until it's losing taste.

Lagos of 2022 is extremely worse than lagos of 2016. So I'm doing you a great favor by posting 2017 pictures.

This explains their bitterness over Nairobi business districts

You must be dumb if you cannot do your own research. Kenya maybe be undeveloped but Nigeria is a zoo. That is the argument. Is Kenya at South Africa level - No. Is Kenya above Nigeria - by thousands miles. How many roads are paved in Kenya - it well known - so what exactly are going nuts about?

samorobo:
Actually it’s a secret,what you’ve shown for the past five years is recycled edited images of the same spot,different angle. I just discovered what was behind the curtain. And it’s a mess to say the very least.

Sounds like bla bla de bla bla of a bleating goat in Zoogeria. Kenya is not a secret that you recently discovered. We have been here for 5yrs and have shown kenya videos running into thousands.

samorobo:
No Kenyan can lecture me on anything security or infrastructures. Where is your security when 50 Childers are kidnapped on a daily basis in just Nairobi,or the fact that 50% of Kenyans have never seen what an electric bulb looks like.

Abuja expansive road network is something that should be studied in your zoo,Atleast to elevate Nairobi despicable state. And as for those poverty town I am not just mocking it, I am mocking the whole of your zoo. I already broke down what your nationwide settlement looks like in 4 stages. Deal with that factoid.

samorobo:
They will cry blood. The travesty zoo Kenya must continue whether they like it or not.
Visual da tz like this cannot be brushed u set the carpet .we as Africans should seek to help one another.we can have open talks,dialogue to see how we can help Kenya cause Nigeria I think was in their current state I think 3 decades back. How we move from where they are now to where we are is something that should be discussed.they have a lot to learn if only they can bring those hungry shoulders down and stop chest beating emptily. Who knows one of their cabinet member could be reading this and this can spark a surge of anger in him being can lead to change.no body hates Kenya,we just want the best for Africa.

Rants from a zoogerian that can't even fix security or basic infrastructure or electricity..you're comparing towns 30 to 60km from Nairobi city with exactly what in Nigeria.Your own Abuja right in CBD lack paved inner roads

Kenya tax revenue up 30 percent in half year - as economy has fully recovered from covid-19 and firing on all cylinders.
https://citizen.digital/business/kra-tax-revenues-over-six-months-hit-ksh869-billion-n290286
Tax receipts through the first six months of the 2021/2022 fiscal year have hit Ksh.868.8 billion, posting a 29 per cent year over year growth from Ksh.673.6 billion in 2020.

This is according to new data from the National Treasury statement of actual revenues and net exchequer issues covering the months of July to December 2021.

Sounds like a whimper from a cornered cane rat on its way to the Ghanaian dinner plate.

rant on

The madcow ranting daily - repeating same nonsense.

As of 2019 census - Kenya had about 6.5M household and business connected to main electricity - about 2 million are business enterprise - about 4.5m were household - now overally number of both household and business is 8.5m connected to metered main electricity (Ghana last I checked was not even at 3.5 million metered connection)

50 percent of kenya households were connected to main electricity - with 17 percent connected to solar (small home system) or mini grids.

Kenya is world leader or 2nd to India in number of small solar home system. There are millions of household with solar systems - Kenya buys solars as you buy generators.

You need to understand that unlike Ghana or Nigeria that almost entirely arable - Kenya population is settled on a small corridor that is arable - and can support lots of human population- and that is where it feasible to connect to main electricity.

The rest (80 percent of land mass that is semi arid and arid) will remain under solar and off grid solutions - it wont make sense to pull wires hundreds of kilometers to connect two or three nomadic pastoralist families who will move next week to new place in search of water and pasture.

ELEVATE THE DEBATE HERE - a

Second and third pic - is Kenya pop density

Just40:
you're acting like you didn't see what everyone saw....let me type it for you
Slightly over 50.4% of Kenyans use electricity

Now, go and help work on your country power crisis

As always half baked research.
Kengen is just one of many players in power generation sector.
They are only folks with hydro..
Hydro should be anywhere 35 percent or below now.

Just40:
let me just post what KenGen is saying so you don't lie..

Today, KenGen PLC has an installed generation capacity of 1,818MW, of which over 86% is drawn from green sources namely: Hydro (826MW), Geothermal (713MW), Thermal (253MW), and Wind (26MW)

Hydro contribute almost 50%

Your country total demand currently stands at 2000mw in 2021 and mind you your country produce below it installed capacity.... Meaning you don't have enough electricity to go round...

Hence the constant blackouts

3000Mw produced - with peak usage of 2000MW. Average Kenya only use electricity for lighting a bulb and watching TV. We are not doing heavy smelting or minning - which consume power - neither do we use any air-condition. Nobody I know in Nairobi has any air-con. It useless. Most of kenya cities except for Mombasa are in very great weather zones - in the equator and altitude of 2000 meters....great weather.

Just40:
so Kenya has 2000Mw electricity and only 1000mw is consumed with and over capacity of 1000mw ?

You see why you don't have to lie all the time?

Such power outage in Kenya are so rare - Kenya gov is doing investigation.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqKUjUYTBYY

There is overcapacity of nearly 1,000MW. Kenya do not use a lot of electricity because the majority of people live in the equator and in the highlands/high altitude - meaning electricity is really for lighting a bulb and watching TV.

Just40:
I've dropped the source here several times...

It comes from your own country census...

All this rant won't take you anywhere

You wish it was in Ghana.
Kenya Power company last did power rationing (dumsor) I think two decades ago...famously in 1999-2001.
We dumped hydro power - and embraced geothermal - and supply issues are non-existent - except in few areas that use to depend on Uganda hydro- now all switched to geothermal.

There are few planned interruptions that must be published...
These are areas where line has to be disconnected - not because of lack of power - but add new transformer or etc.
All this is done during the day.
