Anyway, Kenya cannot compete with Ghana or Accra. You're simply not at our level. Big Zoo Nigeria is struggling - leave alone Ghana.

The Germans say they don't want you because they already have enough low iQ cleaners and maids from Mena.

The Asians won't take you because they prefer Filipino, Malaysian and Vietnamese.

The Arab world will have you but only as maids just like you've historically been.


The dynamics that causes significant rise in Ghana's remittance flows already are present hence we've seen significant flows this year.
7 billion is most likely.

1000 units - is not bad - but do you imagine if you sort out main sewage and really build up 1000 units is very small housing estate.
Now because you're sprawling and wasting land - it become enormous.

what Ghana has built three years ago ... And will still continue the project next year ...

Ghana entire Accra city is struggling to build 10 15 floors building while kenya 1M affordable housing projects are build thousands of 15 floors housing.

Eldoret City Affordable housing

Now Kenya's monthly remittance trending towards 500M USD - which means 6B dollars likely.

Already, year to September, we were at 4.7B USD—more than Ghana—so by the end of the year, we are likely at 6B dollars or very close to it.

3 more years - we should be at 10B. Nigeria stuck at 19-20B - mostly illegal.

Remittance inflows in September 2024 totalled USD 418.5 million compared to USD 340.4 million in September 2023, an increase of 22.9 percent (Chart 1). The cumulative inflows for the 12 months to September 2024 increased by 14.0 percent to USD 4,723 million compared to USD 4,142 million in a similar period in 2023.25

Mad cow as always inventing own facts;

Kenya remittance is now growing at 20% per year.

This 1st term we have taken Labour Export as official gov policy!

Ghanians are still walking across the Sahara then swimming to Italy to pick tomatoes.

We go and sign a deal with Italians or Germans - and send our people legally.

2021 - Ghana was 4.5B - 2023 - 4.6B - only 100M more.
2023 - Kenya was 3.7B - 2023 - 4.2B - 500M more.

Ceteris paribus.

2024 - Ghana 4.7m - at best.
2024 - Kenya will be 4.8M - at worst.

Just30:
Ghana's remittance will be 6 to 7 billion dollars this year.

Good luck on your endeavors, you don't overtake that using cleaners and maids.
I'll be happy if you were Togo which has good quality skill labour.

Ruto is keen to eradicate slums while creating jobs!

From Slums - to this

Those of us who have supported Ruto the longest knew he is go-getter who mean business and the middle class will cry but changes MUST be done.

1) Food security - Maize production moved from 30M bags to 47M bags in a year - this year 75M bags - no maize is needed to be imported - we are now thinking export. Sugar we have always imported - now we are thinking of export. Price has dropped from 250 to 110 and will drop more. Maize from 250 to 100.

Trick - 8M farmers electronically registered and given feritlize vouchers cheaply - nearly 1/3 of market price.
Result - overproduction.

Only remaining issue - Oil crops and Wheat - we are ramping production of sunflower and rest - the holygrail of palm trees is long term.

2) Health - Employees use to pay a silly 3-10 dollar - result health system collapse - many fundraising or harambees. Ruto come and said 2.75% of income and employees match it up. Results 50M kenyans will all have health cover. Huge investment in hospitals and related will follow.

3) Housing - Employees 1.75% and employer match it - sell house monthly for same price as most rent now - results - 1M house by 2027 and eradication of slums.

4) NSSF - Pension or 401k - from 10 dollars of a joke to now 6% employee and 6% top up - NSSF pension fund is joke with 2B worth of investment since independence - in 5yrs alone it will be almost 10 billion dollars - money to invest in roads, dams, etc and people will get pensions.

5) Tax collection was 2 trillion KES - 2yrs later 2.5 trillion - next year 3 trillion - also gov services have been increase to meet inflation - dead gov companies like power company and KQ are all making profit .
6) Universities - all were bankrupt - total bankrupt nearly a billion dollars - now students from middle class pay proper school fees - the poor get loans and scholarship.

Bottomline - Middle class are crying real tears- online they wail - but reforms must continue. More tears will continue from middle class but Ruto will be re-elected by poor who are now happy that cost of living is bottom, slums are going away, health care taken care of and soon infra starts/

Country cannot afford to be hungry slum residing unhealthy poverty ridden hopeless. Unfortunately middle class and upper class has to shoulder the responsibility until the bottom guys are also moving.

Meantime Ruto is ready to send anyone willing to go abraod - abraod - go work and live there - Kenya has no jobs for now.

Kenya Affordable housing - where employees contribute 1.75% and employer same - is on course to eradicate slums.

Formely Slum Mukuru - 13,000 units - bigger than all African housing estate bar Kalamba in Angola. Kibera has even bigger project coming up including 280 acre housing estate - more than 10% of kibra land.

And there are projects all over country to eliminate slums and provide very cheap house - some costing 5,000 dolllars to buy - many you pay 30 dollars a month in rent to won.

Almost all economic indicators are now looking very up - 2.7% inflation, interest rate single digit, economy still growing, KES stable!
Debt default avoided and economy recovered
Just credit growth - which will happen with low interest regime!
Plus fixing pending bills and Non performing loans - then we vroooooooom again
Thousands of kenya being facilated to go abroad - passport processed quickly and gov doing labour agreements.
Ruto found 300 gov service online - now 20,000 gov service online.
In next 6 months - all gov services will be online

Development
Thousands of houses are being built.
750,000 units under development, planned and tendered
1M by 2027.

SGR to Malaba and Kampala start next year.

Mombasa to Malaba expressway - 1,000 kms - Kibaki sijui 40kms thika road or Uhuru 27 kms is a BIG JOKE
Start late 2025.

Kenya is doing well...extremely well
Negative propaganda based on lies cannot be sustained.
NHIF since 1965 - never went beyond 7.5M members
SHIF in 2 months - has registered 15M members - twice
And registration is ongoing.

By 2027 almost every kenyans will have health cover - possibly 1st in Africa.

The system issues are disappointing - but lot of misinformation.
Last year health ministry gave out 5B contract to build initial system
This one being rolled out - long overdue health systems

Phase 2 is 10yrs deal with Safaricom for 105B - about 10B annually - this will be main ADMIN cost of the fund
We expect more than 100 millions hospitilisation per annum and claims.

Saddamochieng00:
Is everything okay back at home? Genuinely concerned.

He is a slowpoke - we have never since this kind of inflation - the last 17 years!

And Ruto is getting started

Inflation drops to 17-year low on falling food and fuel prices

 

Obaaderemi2:
@rvp2018, this guy has said a lot. He thinks your low inflation doesn't deserve much of a celebration because inflation is habitually low in Kenya. What are your thoughts?

Indictment of Nana mismanagement.
Well done to Ghanians.
The last regime deserved to be kicked out.

For a regime that declared bankruptcy to front the same finance minister was the height of insolence.

Bla de bla. Nobody cares about your silly opposition of Ruto in international fora.

Obiano13:
Exactly! Imagine all the foolish dragging he has taken us through, the endless fights, demos, etc from Finance Bill to Adani deals just because he cannot listen to simple advise from anyone. He really owes us a national apology. Thats the least he could do for being an assshole.

I am not talking the capacity but what does Durban handles. Some ports in Morocco doing well. Mombasa doing well.

AfriqueDuZuid12:
2.7m TEUs is the capacity of cargo stuck in traffic

Maputo is 3.5m TEUS

Durban is larger handles way more cargo, only competing with cairo port in africa

Kenya SOES are having big turn around.

Kenya Ports set to hit 2.2M TEUS - I guess most of it Mombasa - and exceed capacity.

Durban is 2.5-2.7M.

She busy torturing and abducting opposition in TZ.
Definitely African cant be 3rd world in roads and 1st world in democracy.
These things go all together.

gallivant:
Most African leaders are thugs if not all. I can't think of any innocent soul at the moment, maybe Suluhu from Tanzania.

Tinubu should keep faith; He has execute very painful reforms that will pay off; He should indeed reduce gov spending for now; and focus on revenue collections; and of course FIX ELECTRICITY - give state powers to fix this - if federal gov.

GeneralDae:
I agree, I see some progress. For Nigeria, we may still have some complexities and some way to go probably.
The biggest problem we have: Too much naira spending in the system chasing a mere $40 Billion gross reserves.
Tinubu by ideology, is too expansionist and believes in big Government spending for growth (like I do) but this is conflicting with the needed economic reforms at this time. We need ways to moderate Government spending and the over 107 trillion naira in circulation.
But on the positive, Tinubu’s team has done a good job by reducing printing (ways and means) in 2024 compared to 2022 and 2023, and even paid back to the Central Bank the 7 trillion naira printed in 2023.

Kenya economic turnaround nearly complete.
- Inflation at 2.7 percent - lowest in 17yrs!
- Forex reserves now at 4.6 months
- KES stabilized at 130.
- Economy expected to grow at modest 5 percent
- Gov Revenues grew 25% almost last month - last year revenues grew 11.5%
- Interest rate in treasury bills and bonds dropping
- Base rate likely to go single digit - now at 12%.

Ruto administration has pulled a very quicky recovery and by April IMF will exit - and the economy will be back to firing on all cylinders.

He is a clinically insane; Best ignored.
 

GeneralDae:
Must you believe everything you see on the internet? Can you show me where in the CIA reply you deduced he is a CIA asset? Why do we love conspiracy theories this much?

Sicko, Trump will be worse, he doesnt care about dictators.
And first president to call him was Ruto.
Trump is transactional leader - dealer - win-win.
Ruto is also that.
They will hit a great rapport.

Obiano13:
The entire world is unanimously overjoyed with the election of Trump, no more so than in my country. Only confused elements are not happy. Not because Trump will help us but atleast he will derail many highly unwelcome American overtures in other countries. Good example is the US ambassador to Kenya who has been key in propping up a very unpopular regime erroneously believing they'd beat Trump and sustain their devilish acts. Not here fool. This bitcch even had the audacity to openly visit the electoral body IEBC so that we know who is in charge of coming elections and wear us out with mental fatigue so that their preferred dictator continues. Foolish bastard. These dems tried assassinating Trump and failed miserably when they sensed the coming momentum was unassailable. If they can do that in their country you can imagine what they can do in your country. Wait until Jan when Trump is sworn in she will be the first to be shown the door. Finally after Trump's win the Dems have smelled the coffee and dont want their dirty linen washed in public once sleepy Joe and lyin Kamala leaves office. These bastards have been silent since June and abstained from condemning senseless abductions of fearless youth by the rogue regime. Ruto and his minions are still seeing silhouettes of themselves in jail months later. Recently when all ambassadors from the so-called West signed a petition urging the butcher of Sugoi to stop the abductions and face the music the US ambassador completely refused to sign, obviously seeing no need as Kamala was winning and she would continue being fully behind it as long as their puppet was in power. That birch will be the first to go and the mission in Haiti will not be funded by Trump. Sese Seko's hope is turning the mission into a UN peacekeeping mission. Mofo, you cannot use Kenya's respected status to further private interests while behaving like an absolute a.hole at home. Haitians have seen what Democrats done to Haiti, complicity in assassinating Moïse, installing puppets, sending foreign mercenaries, backing gangs to justify occupation and using Haiti as proxy to get Venezuela. I hope Trump scorches all of US gov, especially the trash CIA. Obama stationed US troops in Somalia in 2014, Trump withdrew them in 2020, and sleepy Joe put them back within 1 year of taking office. These dems are obsessed with meddling.

I've warned people here severally about IMF's goals in Africa. I think those who still dont believe will understand the purpose of IMF in this video by an actual white man who knows what they do more than us. All your poverty is by design, manufactured, and if you keep playing ball to IMF's demands you will just get poorer and poorer ad infinitum! Just look at any country that plays by IMF's self-serving rules and see how surely they descend into absolute poverty. I am very worried for Nigeria because I saw they accepted IMF conditionalities after listening to quack advice from pseudo economics like General Dae and RIP, soon you will be like Ghana. I rem Generaldae refuting the extent of money looted from the Kenyan treasury by foolishly asking me the quantity of Kenyas foreign reserves. These are the types of guys giving you economic advice on how to run your country, similar to Ruto's David Ndii whose economic transformation plan was dimissed by the brilliant Kibaki as a first year econ paper and flashed down the toilet. Just saw a fellow Kenyan posted that two million Ghanaians outrageously apply for Greencard each year. You think shyt like that happens just like that? Its because of the dust the citizens have seen trying to repay those odious debts. Life is unbearable for the majority and the only escape is lefting the country for good at the slightest opportunity. IMF bastards have you where they want. If you ask Ghanaians what the govt did with all the loans they'll tell you they have no idea because they cannot feel it. These bastards wanted us in that mess too, fck them! In Mozambique in 2016, a corruption scandal was uncovered when it was discovered that the Mozambican government had taken out secret loans without parliamentary approval. The loans were given to three state-owned companies by London-based banks, and the money was stolen. The same idiots who stole the money are now refusing to leave power after being roundly beaten in the elections but since they work in cahoots with the west the latter cannot call them out. A debt is considered odious if it was contracted without the consent of the population and not for their benefit, so there is no obligation on you as a citizen to agree to measures of settling that debt, including punitive taxes. All is not lost though, atleast some citizens in Nigeria see through the BS and are ready to call it out for what it is like Hundeyin and co. The guy is rigt btw, if Ruto makes one more blunder after Trump is sworn we will uproot the bastard and jail him!

These are PPPS.
Build OWN for 30yrs and tranfer.

Stabilization and Subsidy are different things.
Stabex - you pay more when price is low - the fund is then use to prevent price shocks.

Seeing an id*iot defend monopoly when he was blatantly against such nonsense.

He's always ranting about is wishes a d aspirations instead of the reality.
I can't believe he is calling a subsidy something else

What is relevances?
Indians & Kalenjin and Andani.
Get a grip of yourself.

Obiano13:
I've come to realize very few Africans actually care about how much looting takes place in their country. Back in the 90s a very infamous Indian thief calling himself a business man came to the limelight in cahoots with Moi's irredeemably corrupt government. He alone looted 10 % of Kenya's GDP then. They looted so much the economy was on its knees. This was a time when every crime could fly. Moi was so evil he would literally jail you if you said the government was corrupt.

Eventually when we kicked Moi out of power, Kamlesh Pattni and all his associate politician thiefs and government officials found themselves in the ropes in court answering to their misdeeds. With no one to protect him, they were faced with the ominous reality of losing every stolen penny and spending his life in prison. Pattni, the flamboyant Indian businessman began to feign all manner of illnesses and beg for mercy. But Kenyans were having none of his shenanigans. You can see here Kenyans confronting him after a court session with all manner of abuses.

https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=895069894364100

Eventually, he lost, leading to the government recovering a multibillion hotel from him, the Grand Regency Hotel, which he had built using the stolen money. But he never paid everything. Later he converted to Christianity and became a pastor to try and soften Kenyans' harsh stance against his shameless theft. I hear now he has emerged somewhere in Zimbabwe where the laws are unimaginably weak and he faces no prospect of justice so he continues with his looting there.

This is the fate that awaits the current crop of thieves led by Ruto and the Indians. They are very busy looting with their Indian friends forgetting that in just a few years MAX they will be powerless and at the mercy of angry Kenyans who wont forgive them by any means. The difference is that this time round they wont get off the hook like Pattni who got away with the larger stash of money.

Cry me a river.
When will Luos like you become president so we can say bla de bla
Indians>Chinese>Somalis - they have done us good.
India is the next China.
We should exploit our historical linkages with India.

Obiano13:
Tell that to the dogs. The Indians who are into manufacturing are well known and are very few. The Indians that Moi used to loot public resources are the ones I am talking about. The Kamlesh Patttnis and the Kettan Somaia's. These are people who were looting as much as half the economy and helping Moi stash the money overseas in the Cayman Islands like Ruto is doing now with Adani and Jayesh. The problem, and I think I told you this before, is that Kalenjin presidents suffer from an inferiority complex. They resort to sabotaging their fellow black Kenyans and giving all money and power to Indians lately they are also being used by Somalis. Very strange character but we will fix it once and for all. And this time we will jail them.

Fyi, this Jayesh Saini Indian whom Ruto has given the entire healthcare in the country to run with the SHA and SHIF nonsense is responsible for unimaginable theft and outright killingg of innocent Kenyan. Over the last ten years more than 10,000. Teachers have lost their lives due to prolonged procedures aimed at frustrating them, prolonged authorizations for critical treatment and frustrations of cover access. Jayesh makes a return profit of over 50% of premiums. Teachers life cover worth Sh 1.4Bn is handled by Pioneer Insurance owned by Jayesh and Adil claims are not paid to beneficiaries.
The consortium of insurance companies to whom the TSC tender was awarded have never received premiums which are instead illegally passed on to Jayesh’s MAKL outfit. Ruto only works with thieves so long as he is promised a cut of the theft. And he likes to steal with Indians like Moi.

Adani wins contract to build high voltage in Kenya and to invest 760M USD.
That is huge FDI to kenya.

Meanwhile opposition cry and cry

Ruto will invite more PPPS

Because we cannot borrow to build stuff anymore

Subdisy is using or foregoing revenues (taxes).
Stabex is saving for the rain day.
Big difference you slowpoke

Obiano13:
There is no difference. People like you who cannot think independently believe everything the government says. The basic fact is the govt is cushioning the oil prices which is the definition of subsidy. The govt was just trying to save face because accepting fuel subsidies would paint Ruto in bad light after all the bravado. You really think we are all low IQ Sudis and Farouks. That article explains everything clearly. You shot yourself in the foot.

Indians didnt rise in 90s.
They were rose in 1970s when expelled/restricted from DUkawallas - retail and wholesale - 1967 Africanisation - they went into manufacturing
They made huge fortunes in 70s/80s/90s - from manufacturing
And of course some joined public procurement and contracting.
Now they have been replaced by Chinese
And of course Somalis.

Obiano13:
Back in the 90s it was usual for the only people to be moneyed in Kenya to be Indians. That was because Moi, in a span of a decade and a half, had taken the entire economy from black Kenyans to disempower them and make them controllable at the height of the clamour for multiparty democracy. He had given everything to Indians and all govt corruption was managed and masterminded by Indians. They were immensely rich up until 2003 when we kicked Moi and his entire cabal out of power. Black people began to rise again after that. Ruto is now smack in the middle of impoverishing Black Kenyans and giving Indians a free run at the economy through bloated tenders and open theft. Kenyans are closing down businesses at an alarming rate. This is a business in Nairobi CBD. Look at what the owner wrote after closing down. This is the case everywhere in the country. Businesses closing down and Ruto promising to export young Kenyans to the middle east as slaves to be left with his Indians. Btw, the word Umbwa is Swahili for Dog.

There is no fuel subsidy in Kenya under Ruto.

There is fuel stabilization fund....to smoothen price changes

https://www.theeastafrican.co.ke/tea/business-tech/imf-backs-president-ruto-fuel-price-stabilization-plan-4339556

We pay about 5.4 KES to Fuel Stabilization Fund when we buy fuel

If Fuel prizes rose sharply - in a month - GOV utilize that money - to smooth out the changes

Understand difference btw Fuel Stabilization and Fuel Subsidy.

Obaaderemi2:
Wow. Clearly Kenya is still paying fuel subsidies through the backdoor.

This is crazy shit! Even with subsidy you are paying $1.35 for a litre of petrol. That's approximately #2000 naira in Nigeria. We pay 1050 naira for a litre here and its effects are debilitating
