Your fight against corruption can be summarized as Buhari. Kenya started fighting corruption in 1990s. When you were still under Sani Abacha - we had formed the first Anti-Corruption Commission(KAAC) - and we have seen it all - for 30yrs - and now we know very well the only way to sustainably fight corruption is through institutions. And it's not easy fight. But ours is a sustainable fight. We formed that KAAC in 97 - was declared unconstitutional later - then formed another one and now have EACC that anchored in the constitution. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenya_Anti-Corruption_Authority It's very hard to fight corruption when you're a democratic nation like kenya where thieves enjoy all sort of rights from corrupt justice systems...but we are slowly and surely going to slay it by focussing on institutions.

Americans and a Nigerian. That is why they are based in US, Lagos and of course like everyone else is realizing you need to be in NAIROBI if you want to do anything in Africa - Nairobi is the hub. Otherwise this is just another Nigeria start up trying to pretend it can analyse the whole of Africa... forgiveness: |
And you think all these other African commissions of election are very competent. Elections were annulled because of our judiciary now have cojones.An erection without cojones is pretty useless. We have very mature institutions now. The fight against graft is ongoing. And our fight is more sustainable because it's not driven by Buhari (personality) but institutions. Strong institutions are what eventually defeat corruption. Anything else is not sustainable. And I don't think we are more corrupt than Nigeria. These are 'perception" studies. Kenya are just more perceptive of the problem of graft. You cannot be that corrupt and thrive. In any case we are working on our corruption problem...and I expect to see change of perception.

That was dangerous. I mean in Kenya people can pretty much tell you tribe from your name anyways. ednited: |
It was co-founded by some Americans and the Nigerian lady -QUEEN C. NWORISARA-QUINN . And that is why they are churning lots of Nigeria heavy stuff. I have no problem with that. They should restrict their studies to Nigeria - and maybe Kenya where they have some office. Otherwise they are producing totally shitty data - like Yemi Kale of NBS. forgiveness: |
Fact is our courts showed Kenyans and the world that a presidential election of a sitting president can be annulled. Obviously the loser knew he had no chance at repeat election but that is a story for another day. There was another petition after the first one - and that one was rejected. Now that is democracy 101. In Africa - Zambia - probably can hold the candle to Kenya when it come to long period of democratic elections. We can may add Tanzania. The rest of Africa have had military rules and suspended democracy for long periods. Ghana has emerged a strong democracy after short period of military rule and Nigeria ought to learn from her. I had quickly checked your election thread - boy that sounds like party nomination in kenya - missing ballots or not enough - open voter bribery - violence.You need to annual your elections so many times. As for corruption - we always rank like 3 or 4 position below you - which honestly is such a shame. It one of thing that is holding our potential and we are working on it. I think eventually we will leave Nigeria in that shameful list of corruption. Danielnino00: |
If you wanted to keep it Nigerian - don't bring it to Foreign Affairs thread - solely dedicated to comparing the shitty Nigeria and the progressive Kenya. Yes Kenya became the first country in Africa to annual it's presidential election. THAT IS PROGRESS. HUGE PROGRESS by our Justice System. Danielnino00: |
Kenya with less than 20M voters had 45K polling stations - we ensure no polling station has no more than 500 votes. We also have biometric kits to ensure ghost voters don't show up. And results are transmitted electronic whenever possible. Anyway good luck - you really need it. Danielnino00: |
More shitty data from Frayam based in Lagos and co-founded by a Nigerian.forgiveness: |
More Nairobi - Westlands, Upperhill and Kilimani - built with zero minerals - just sweat and ingenuity.

Nairobi the shopping destination - 1) Sarit Center - one of kenya first mall - undergoing massive expansion. https://i.imgur.com/yQKNpIG.jpg 1) Two Rivers - Largest Mall in Africa outside South Africa.

Antenna! Nairobi - It laughable when Slumpolis cities of Nigeria try to compete with such a city.

How they survive elections petition with such evidence of election bribery or Nigeria is such a jungle - these are patently illegal activities last seen in Africa maybe 30yrs ago. sufferNsmiling: |
Awesome! I think now CBA-NIC will join COOP,Equity & KCB in global top 1000 Jonraid: |
In 2017 CNN - Voted Watamu 2nd best beach in Africa - after Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. Diani beach was 3rd. Definitely in Kenya - Watamu compete with Diani beach - for the ultimate beach experience. http://edition.cnn.com/travel/article/africa-best-beaches/index.html XhosaNostra: |
Watamu is incredible - coz temperatures are so high - so you want to just stay on water. Jonraid: |
Mombasa is not comparable to any of slumpolis. https://www.travelmombasa.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/City-view.jpg https://www.travelmombasa.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/digo-road-mombasa.jpg https://www.travelmombasa.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/mombasa-at-night2.jpg https://www.travelmombasa.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/nyali-bridge4.jpg https://www.travelmombasa.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/mombasa-beach.jpg justtoodark: |
Please quit comparing your ugly slumpolis with Mombasa. Just because Ibanda has Ibanda university - don't think Mombasa doesn't have universities slowpoke. Mombasa has many university campus. Including Technical University of Mombasa. Nearly every kenyan university has a branch in Mombasa.

They will only succeed in scampering foreign investors away from the country. They aint getting even a billion dollars. This nonsense Nigeria & TZ have done. Uganda are preparing for the same - they already hit Tullow with huge tax and now MTN-Uganda are going to get hit. sufferNsmiling: |
Spain - which excluding US behemooth - is biggest tourist earner - makes 60B - from it's 60M tourist. Kenya which receives 2M tourist is making around 1.8-2B. I mean Tanzania cooks their internation tourist receipt - but it's not overcooked. They claim to make 2.5B dollars from 1M or less tourists. Nigeria has little to no international tourism. It just is the domestic tourism - and if that is now 34% of their economy then it's like their agriculture the undiscovered gem of the world.Yemi Kale and the whole of Nigeria intelligensia are too codeine-d to critically question anything. kikuyu1: |
LOL ![]() tylann: |
It is incredulous. 50% poverty rate when they have all that natural resources. Just30: |
NairobiWalker:Well - I suppose they someone to design them ugly buildings - maybe Mugendi was bootstrapping - and clearly she manages to transform KU from graduate teaching school to now - where it has overtaken Moi and is hot on heels of Nairobi. Anyway I don't think it cost a lot to build contemporary modern design. Jonaid hospital looks very average compared to new hospital in Ghana and even TZ. |
I expect Lagos to still have endemic power shortages, fuel shortages, water shortages and employment shortages in 2025. Danielnino00: |
They are just regurgiating whatever NBS Yemi Kale cooks. Nigeria economy is very puny. 68816419: |
Pray tell us what is infrastructure to you Nigerias?. You don't have constant supply of water, electricity and sewage. Those are basic infrastructure that even Mogadishu can hack. Next your roads outside the major arteries are non-existent. You have rickety rail-line. Your ports are congested and containers takes months to clear. Your airports are worst than one find in places - again like Somalia Mogadishu. Your citizen are all over the world look for university education? Pray tell us what Infrastructure you Nigeria boast of? forgiveness: |
Remove Nigeria overcooked GDP there. forgiveness: |
Kenya with likes of Bangaldesh have had the fastest electrification rates - faster than when US was electrifying. Access has shot from like 10% to nearly 80% as we speak now. Anyway with Census - we will find out exact number - mtisTheQubit: |
This indeed nonsense - and abuse of democracy. Even in US - not every tom, dick and harry is allowed to ran. There are strict nomination procedures including collection of thousands if not millions endorsement signatures. How long will the ballot paper or booklet be ![]() mtisTheQubit: |
Of course we know Google. I am glad you finally found it.Now help us by providing the latest data. Don't come quoting 2016 data. Do you know in 2006 - kenya had like 12-15% electricity coverage and Nigeria had like 50% - Nigeria is stuck at 50% (with very sporadic power supply) and kenya is racing for universal electricity coverage like South Africa in 2020/2022. samorobo: |
Which part of 70% have access don't you understands. Let me break it down. It mean 70% of all kenya households in villages, cities, towns and even in remotest houses have electricity. 30% who don't have - normally are just few meters from the transformer - but cannot afford the 300 dollars connection fee. I think maybe only 10% are far from nearest transformer(600m) and would need new stepdown transformer. When we say access - we mean everyone in everywhere has nearly 24hrs of power every day - excess during schedule maintenance. There is more than enough power for consumption. Kenya slums all have electricity - 24hrs a day - and they have water - illegally connected. You should move there. It better than living in Nigeria's Slumpolis https://blogs.reuters.com/great-debate/files/2015/07/grid.kenya_-1024x624.jpg https://biomassmagazine.com/uploads/posts/magazine/2018/04/ASTICOM-TEAM_15235585405452.jpg theenchanter: |
