Verbiage. Corruption is easy to say but hard to nail. Gok need to continue with reforms.

Obiano13:
Ofcourse!! its Friday. On the stroke of midnight Kenyans in NIGHT clubs across the country will stand up to a deafening crescendo of the national anthem followed by RutoMustGo as they urge the greatest looter to ever exist to ''Anguka Nayo'' (Fall with the Finance Bill). Ruto either has to fix corruption or fall with the finance bill. The choices are clear as day. Everyone knows he cant because he is the definition of corruption itself so he has to go. The cabinet is down. Some of these guys were implicated in vile corruption scandals yet openly sworn they would rather die than resign! The balls. The minister for roads and transport was caught smack in the middle of the final stages of leasing JKIA for 30 years to a shadowy Indian firm to the knowledge of no one and had received kick backs. He was arrested in Dubai with the money as he attempted to buy properties. Ruto, the high priest of corruption, intervened for his release. Birds of a feather.! Auctioning the country for 30 pcs of silver. Africans have a serious mental problem.

Obiano, I didn't see your silly questions when Ruto was live on space n taking questions

Do Nigeria have budget for road maintenance - cutting grass near the road - every six months or so?

Owerri-Okigwe Road, Imo State, Nigeria

So remember I told you not expect lots of forex to come in. Naira is still doing badly.

GeneralDae:
Yes.

But isnt Dangote import crude?

GeneralDae:
Exports of gasoil from the refinery hit nearly 100,000 barrels per day (bpd) in May, nearly doubling April's levels, data from analytics firm Kpler showed. The bulk of the exports went to other West African countries, but one cargo was shipped to Spain.

Preliminary June gasoil volumes have fallen sharply, though overall oil product exports including fuel oil, naphtha and jet fuel remained relatively elevated at 225,000 bpd, the data showed.

The refinery "changed the balances in West Africa", affecting European markets as a result, a European distillates trading source said.
EU and UK gasoil exports to West Africa fell to a four year low of 29,000 bpd in May, Kpler data showed, while Russian exports to the region fell to an 8-month low of 87,000 bpd in May.

Tinubu flattered and reforms are still born. Ruto went so hard until he got a revolt.

Kenya reforms are paying off.

Dont believe in your own propaganda. Ruto is the president and has lots of guns to waste most of you if he needs to enforce law and order. He is of course moving cautiously so he doesnt massacre kids and lose face - esp internationally.

Obiano13:
If just a week of protests nearly brought the Butcher of Sugoi down you should be very afraid what a month will do to him and his cabal of looters. Which church is Ruto attending today? He should announce in advance if he has titanium balls.

Ruto approved the appropriation bill n by default spending plans are intact ...your movement can't last a month even

Obiano13:
Which business without a budget? Unless you mean looting business.

Much worse. Kenya inflation is now 4.5%. Gen Z urban protest are just content creation

Obiano13:
I thought the silly Ghanaian said they protest.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMK-F6gbl6Y?si=baOQY9XALRN9OoTX

The situation in Ghana is far much worse but the youth are cowards.

Define FAIL.
Ruto has stabilized the economy..and managed to grow it by 5.7%.
Kenya has NOT defaulted.
KES is back 120sh from 160sh - almost undone all the depreciation.
Inflation is single digit - 5% - there is plenty of food.

What we had was just something akin to Black Lives Movement/Londons riots - online outburst of anger - that is rudderless, issuesless and nothing much will come out of it.

Obaaderemi2:
Remember when I told you ruto would fail.

You had your 30 secs of madness ; Now GoK resume business

Obiano13:
He has to figure out how to meet 40 million youths. one suggestion is through an online platform like Space on X where he cannot bribe anyone. This nigga is a walking Mr money bag he bribes his way through everyone

Dream on.

Obiano13:
Irreducible minimums before any budget discussions can take place as demanded by the people who bear the actual sovereign power!

1. The dictator must scrap all Spouses offices and refund all monies that went to those offices in the past 2 years.
2. Scrap the housing levy that was shoved down the throats of citizens last year. Refund all citizens their money and apologize.
3. Any govt official with a criminal record must resign immediately before he or she is hauled out of office.
4. Return the free maternity healthcare program that the dictator scrapped off to align with the IMF's depopulation agenda.
5. Reconstitute the electoral commission within 1 month to facilitate The People's recall of all gluttonous mpigs, including all who voted yes.
6. The salaries of all MPs to be reduced to 200 k a month, same pay as doctors. They will only get an increase if citizens agree in future.
7. Every coin spent by the govt must be accounted for without fail.
8. There should be nothing like confidential expenditure.
9. The dictator cannot travel outside the country more than twice a year.
10. All govt travel must be authorized by the citizens and must be done using official government transport systems, planes, vehicles, trains, etc.

ProblemChild1:
What's going on in Kenya

the pain of not defaulting like GH

Nonsense. Unless you have counter proposal to US/UN backed plan - we aint listening. Kenya together with Uganda went to Somalia when everyone thought it wasnt mission impossible. Now Somalia has turned around and recently joined EAC.

Haiti gangs are not match to elite Kenya police units like Recce Squad. And soon you'll know that.

Obiano13:
Its not always about elections son/daughter. I'm concerned by Ruto's buttlicking of Joe. What business does Kenya have with Haiti? We haven't even fixed Somalia for fcks sake! The greed of this man has no bounds. He's blinded by that $$ from the Americans (he thinks they're freebies) to turn innocent Kenyans into Barbecue's shooting targets. Ofcourse thats not the only thing Im concerned about its just the major worry for me considering innocent Haitians themselves dont want Kenyans there AT ALL. The only Haitians who want an intervention are the few oligarchs who have dominated the poor masses since time immemorial. Did you see the demos in the US by average Haitians when Ruto was there? Never thought in my wildest dreams Ruto would suck D in the WH. That dude probably had a quickie with Joe. FUnny thing, there's no chance that Kenyan police will achieve anything in Haiti. The revolution in Haiti will only end with the majority winning it, and the majority are the hoi Polloi led by Barbecue and co. Ruto better be prepared to receive body bags after body bags at JKIA's special wing.

ANC might go for cheapest option - Zuma. Whose key demand is to be out of prison and maybe to have access to zulu virgin in his Nkandla. ANC likely to strike a deal with him.

chrisooblog:
Looks the smartest and logical choice but the black man will F it up.

Sentiments of "Zuma and Malema were once part of the ANC so understand the struggle" will probably hold sway.

Will be glad to be proved wrong.

How many companies are shifting their regional (africa) HQ to Nairobi? Thousands.

AskiaHarem:
Capital of the Great Lakes.
It has no influence Politically, Economically, or culturally outside of there worth mentioning.

ANC/EFF/MK would be a coalition of the doomed led by incompetent Ramaphosa, the corrupt Zuma and the unhinged Malema. It would turn South Africa into another Zimbwabwe.

ANC badly need to strike a deal with DA. ANC leftist communism/socialism has failed, and DA would inject it with right wing free market realism that South Africa badly needs - and also end racial tensions.

The best outcome for RSA 1) Kick out Ramaphosa 2) ANC-DA enter a deal. This will be seen as huge betrayal from leftist in ANCs and its surrogates - but South Africa need to change direction ASAP.

GeneralDae:
Would EFF also be in that coalition? What of Zuma’s party?

Nairobi - Capital of Africa (I remember when I predicted this it sounded ridiculous - now everyone starting to acknowledge)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jj3WkTNVsQw&t=594s

Agreed - sensible thing to save South Africa from leftist communist.

jl115:
I believe(hope) a DA/ANC coalition is on the cards, it will be by far the best outcome for the country and supporters since if you look at the polls more than 60% have voted for a more central leaning government rather than a radical(left) one.

You nailed it.
So what next - will rest form coalition against ANC?
Or they MK or EFF will give ANC a majority
Or ANC will form a minority gov

jl115:
This was my prediction almost a 2 years ago....

How it's panning out:

ANC:42%
DA: 25%
EFF: 9%
MK:9%
PA: 3.5%
.
.
.
ActionSA 1%

Things i didn't expect then: Formation of the MK which has taken votes from the EFF and and obviously a vast chunk of ANC votes, the PA that has grown tremendously, they had a great campaign and their leader Gayton McKenzie must be applauded, they have also certainly taken a chunk of ASA votes and DA colored votes .....ASA being a fart in the wind, there campaigning for these elections as been non existent, in fighting has also greatly damaged the party.

Things that are surprising me:
DA @ 25% although i predicted this then the actual PR of the DA is brain dead and personally i thought they wouldn't get more than 22%

MK taking 3rd spot, I knew Zuma was popular but dammmm....

EFF I honestly thought would've done better, not by much but better, they have certainly been hurt by the MK

When I spoke about this - I created a legion of bitter Nigerians. Tinubu has done the right thing and stopped the cooking by Nigeria CNB and Stats office.

Now Nigeria is 4th Largest Economy at 250B. - about Twice Kenyan economy. NOW CRAWL OUT BY WORKING HARD - not cooking stats.

Bloomberg) -- Nigeria’s economy, which ranked as Africa’s largest in 2022, is set to slip to fourth place this year and Egypt, which held the top position in 2023, is projected to fall to second behind South Africa after a series of currency devaluations, International Monetary Fund forecasts show.

The IMF’s World Economic Outlook estimates Nigeria’s gross domestic product at $253 billion based on current prices this year, lagging energy-rich Algeria at $267 billion, Egypt at $348 billion and South Africa at $373 billion.

Tinubu after 8yrs will transform Nigeria. He is brilliant. He previously turned around Lagos state. Tinubu need to free Nigeria economy from capture n provide reliable electricity to South n education & security to north.. Nigeria will fire all it cylinder n will grow at 10% for decades.

GeneralDae:
Yeah, this Government devalued twice in one year. The second devaluation which occurred on Jan 31st this year was a tough one. From 900 to 1400.

Just30:
if it was that easy, you would have done it a long time ago. You think redenomination makes a currency strong ?

Redenomination does not change the value of a currency

cedis is weak currency that went from 1 to 1 to dollar to 10. That is 1000% devaluation in decade n half

See this what some of us have urged

GeneralDae:
Close of trade today:

Official market: 1142 naira
BDC (Parallel market) : 1115 naira.

Hmm. All hail the naira. Not only are the rates now unified, street rate is even lower than Bank rate.

Yes, of course, we were at brink of a default n yes our credit rating is still not good.

vaxx:
You almost defaulted. The new eurobond save you . Now , you are now at ease to refinance your debt and also have enough temporary time to pay back . You are paying back at a much a larger interest in the next five to six years time . And if you failed , the international capital loans and bond will be blocked for you.

We are able to refinance our Eurobond because unlike Ghana we didn't default but dug into our pockets n repaid debts

vaxx:
Thanks to the new eurobond kenya expensively subscribed to.

Baller254:
wiped out 6 months of losses in a few days

This week it could shaved out full year of depreciation

Looking for company in misery corner mad man. Kenya shillings is the least manipulated currency in Africa n after we dealt with debt..it's just gained ground from 160 to 140 in 3 days..this week it's goes to 120.

Just30:
the naira is only finding it natural value

If Kenya does same thing today, their kshs will be doing like 500 kshs to a dollar

Nigeria thanks to Great Tinubu will begin to emerge from the hole. I never thought Nigeria would be this lucky to get a leader of Tinubu brains n I was hopeless but now the country if they retain Tinubu for 8yrs will soon emerge as a real giant.

As I rightfully analyzed Nigeria GDP should be around 200B.To view keyboard shortcuts, press question mark

S&P forecasting #Nigeria's nominal GDP at $266bn in 2025, 42% lower than latest IMF forecast of $458bn (Oct 23). The forecast implies a drop in GDP per capita towards $1,000. Note that last national census was in 2006 as planned 2023 census was delayed.
