omolayomi06:my main problem with Nigeria is why the story never change..in 90s in Kenya we had some of those problems..but we solve them..in Kenya you can almost feel or know things keep getting better annually except for some stuff like police corruption...society is in constantly changing and demanding change..I don't understand how basic stuff like electricity cannot be fixed.Kenya we are almost on constant change trajectory for the better...many things now as good if not better than developed world.End of day the society has to discover it's reformation.West Africa has essentially given up on their countries and all they look forward is the day they emigrate.kenya abroad look forward for their day they get home because the story is changing for the better...Kenya keep getting better two immediate US ambassadors refused to back home..many expat never want to leave..many tourist want to come back...ASk any Kenya and foreigner where they rather be.. definitely Kenya... great weather..great people.. semblance of first world order.. incredibly beautiful country.Most important kenyan are hardwoking, honest and positive people.Nigeria can be the same if they start doing painful reform... unlike Kenya they have oil money to finance reform...if power is problem fix it..in Kenya in early 2000s we invited Canadian to run our power.. Manitoba power fixed our power..in 2yrs..they left |
Cedis and Kwacha have bad history of hyperinflation that is hard to sort...people always remain with bad memories..and any sign of trouble...they dump it for dollar. Hyperinflation is hard to get out of. theenchanter: |

Uhuru found a GDP of 40B - he is retiring at 110B. That is almost trippling GDP in 10yrs. Buhari has overseen one longest recession in the Zoo...I think is average growth rate for 8yrs is NEGATIVE ![]() Goodluck Jonathan look like an Angel compared to Buhari. It's been total EPIC failure. Nigeria you should just ask Obasanjo to come back deputized by Goodluck. That Nigeria was promising People would listen to Obasanjo and Goodluck You need some luck chrisooblog: |

Street kids and street families exist in kenya urbans centers- those are drug junkies that we sent to juvenile prison or children homes...they are not normal kids being told to go hawking or picking cocoa beans or cleaning gold with mercury like Ghana or a whole battalion of Almajiri kids in Nigeria begging in streets then retire to their homes. Street kids or Chokora in kenya live in the streets - they are drug junkies..from urban poverty. GeneralDae: |
Any random video of Accra will show lots of kids hawking everything from boiled eggs to yams. Just40: |
I wished you had received some half decent education to arm your with critical thinking skills. People go hungry in the world - not because there is lack of food - but because they lack money. This is not stone age - this modern world where you use money to buy food - you dont need to grow or hunt for food. In kenya - there are many areas that are throwing excess food - while other areas cannot afford to buy food. If you depend on livestock - and drought arrives - sometimes it doesnt rain for two years - then pasture and water dries. Those people living in arid areas source of livelihood - livestock - also dries up. They cannot get money to buy food. In Nigeria they simply arm themselves with Ak47 guns & even grenades - and go South shooting and killing farmers - in search of pasture and water.In kenya we dont allow such. If you were a decent country - not a zoo - 100M of your people would not be extremely poor with all that oil. Those extremely poor Nigerias are out there begging in the streets - while others are dying uncounted. I have watched videos of thousands of Nigeria kids begging on streets. Millions of them have left school to work or eke a living. You see the same in Ghana - everywhere there are small kids hawking for survival or picking cocoa or working for chinese gold smugglers. 68816419: |
Incorrigible as always Kenya is a democratic country with freehold title This is not Ghana where kings own land People are free to decide what to farm - if flowers bring them money - they go for it. Irrigation schemes are solution in some of the areas - but not everywhere. The Sahara desertificaiton is complex thing - where you get water to irrigate huge expansive arid land? If you had a solution take it to Nigeria - where Fulanis herdsmen are driving farmers out of their farms The long term solution are great But in the meantime Kenya gov will provide money to people under distress from drought. I wish your country would do the same We provide money to old, disabled, vulnerable, orphans - and hungry both in rural and urban areas. Annually we are spending close to 0.5B dollars for that social safety net - more than you spend in your entire road sector it appears. vankelvin: |
People are free to plant whatever they want in their farms. If your farm has food crops - will you give it for free to drought stricken people in northern part of the country. The people starving in Sahel - do not starve for lack of food - but for lack of money to buy food. Their food crop is livestock - cows, sheeps and goats - when drought come - it wipes most of them. vankelvin: |
How do you propose countries solve drought and sahara desertification? How much will that cost? Just40: |
A country doesnt become a zoo because it's affected by perennial drought as Sahara desertification continues. A country that doesnt do anything about it - is a zoo Do you know how many people are going hungry in Nigeria? It start from knowing them. Then devising programs to help them. I was part of the team that came up with kenya national drought management https://www.ndma.go.ke/ After every rain season - kenya gov does assessment on areas that drought prone - and determine people who may need assistance. We also designed a hunger safety net - where those survey to be drought affected - are send mobile money As we speak kenya run one of Africa biggest social safety net - ensuring Any kenyan who is disabled, orphan, hunger stricken, old receive money every month. Any kenyan who is 70yr old receive monthly stipend and free treatment http://www.socialprotection.or.ke/national-safety-net-program/126-hunger-safety-net-programme-hsnp 68816419:

After kicking France you're looking for new master? Magreb has no serious islamic terrorism. You should do what Kenya, Uganda, Ethiopia and Burundi has done in Somalis - contribute troops in Ecowas - and replace the french- and fight the terorist in Mali, Burkina faso, Nigeria, Chad and Niger. https://newlinesinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/NLISAP-Africa-ACLED-05212020.png vankelvin: |

Our roads repair from fuel levy approaching a billion a year - while new road construction annually is more than 2 billion dollars - excluding IPPS 400m dollars disbursed in 1st half - this repairs and maintain a total of 80,000kms https://www.the-star.co.ke/news/2021-03-02-roads-board-releases-sh419bn-for-road-maintenance/ |
While you're paving 15kms of road per annum - we are aggressively opening up new roads. The survey, done by the Kenya Roads Board (KRB), documents the evolution of the country’s road network from 63,000km in 2003 to 161,000km in 2009 and then 246,700km in 2018. |
https://www.businessdailyafrica.com/bd/economy/state-values-road-network-at-sh3-5trn-before-audit-3472282 The Kenya Roads Board (KRB), the agency charged with overseeing development and repairing of roads, has revealed the valuation in the tender seeking consultants to conduct a two-year survey on the condition of Kenyan roads. The valuation of the 246,757.26 kilometres of roads, which include 40,002.34km trunk roads, is more than Kenya’s Sh3.06 trillion budget, highlighting the impact of Jubilee administration’s accelerated investment in roads in the past decade. KRB data says the country has 161,821km classified roads, 34,000km unclassified or new roads with more than nine-metre road reserve and 50,000 km narrow roads that have less than nine-metre road reserve. Kenya had 76,100km of roads in 2014, meaning that 85,721km of paved and unpaved roads were added in five years to June 2019. The country has added 10,395km of paved roads from 2010 to close June 2019 with 21,295km. Just40: |
It even worse if that data is the best ever done by Ghanian regime ![]() Just40: |
They upgraded about 450kms (yearly 90kms) - I guess to bitumen/asphalt standard - did overlay of asphalt for 1,000kms - (200kms) -this is re-carpeting - reconstructed 90(20Kms yearly) - and constructed 68kms (15km per year). This is not my data. This is their own data for last 5yrs presented by their road minister to their parliament. I am sure if Ghana gov had done better than this - they would proudly present. This what Just40 madness posted here before realizing it would expose them - and quickly deleted - kept reposting geographical breakdown. The claim was they were building 4,000kms new road per year - that is huge - and I was sceptical - but certainly didnt expect them to be constructing 13kms per year of new road.They are doing very very badly - considering they have all those minerals. Africa or world leading gold producer. GeneralDae: |
Absolutely. Ghana has been a revelation - outwardly you think it's a progressive country - but inwardly like Nigerian knows - it's just another zoo Tayser: |

Take your meds! Just30: |
re-sphalting! slowpoke. The figures you keep throwing is automatically taken to recycle bin. An asphalt overlay is a layer of new asphalt applied over the existing base layer of asphalt on a driveway, parking lot or road Just30: |
I think you've earned your alms! Dont sweat it! theenchanter: |
Resealing a road, spot repairs, re-asphalting a road, gravelling (took like 1,000kms) is not new road. The only thing I see as being a little serious is the reconstruction and upgrading ( I guess to bitumen standard ) - that would add you another 500kms of road.You got problems - and you know it that - is why you quickly hide that table ![]() Just30:

I have watched couple of videos from Ghana - the complain is always on the bad roads - bumpy rides. My big problem is where all the gold money disappears into? Something is wrong with these west africans. Shma: |
