Genetically and Linguistically the Middle Eastern People (Arabs, Jews) and Africans (Niger-Congo, Nilo-saharan, Afro-Asiatic) are very close. But because of Ancient Egypt success and Jewish situation; the Whites (Europeans) who are closer to Asians like Indian/Persian - have tried to "own" the middle east and make it part of the white world. After hundrends years of enslaving and colonizing Africans - it was hard for them to recognise that Africa started the civilization.

Before Suez Canal - there was no border btw Africa and Middle east - the contours are very clear - from Arab/Jew - to ethiopian/somali/berber/hausa -to a maasai - to a kikuyu or igbo or yoruba - the same for the language - the root or cognate word are similar

Genetic - one is E1b1 and there other is E1ba - of course the Arabs and Jews have some European blood - but the majority have African blood

OMFG,my dude I don't blame you! You see images not knowing how there is an EXTREMELY active global agenda to steal the history of the Originals. Fyi,most of those images are falsified,deliberately distorted with individuals portrayed whitened like the last pic. This BS has had surprisingly long legs-intelligent people believe this til today. There's King Tut's family's regional dna analysis.
ALL THE EGYPTIANS WERE BLACK,AS WERE THE MIDDLE EASTERNERS TIL VERY RECENTLY! Here's smth on the Kalenjin and their history which rvp20182 can confirm.

Many Africans have similar tales,incl Kikuyus. No I'm not claiming any affinity with the present day Impostors,who are actually from S Russia,self deluded with Yahweh myths believing He gave them the Promised Land.

Early Africa was ahead in ways we can't comprehend. It wasn't a Wakanda but their ancient knowledge is still not understood. There was brain surgeries ,caesareans and even Vaxxes!

Yes Nubians or people similar to Berbers/Beja were original Egyptians; Arab arrived in Northern Africa way after. The pyramids are Nubian invention; and Sudan has more pyramid than Egypt. They are just smaller.

obaaderemi:
Yes, the 25th Dynasty of Pharaohs were actually made up of Nubians.
They invaded Egypt earlier on and ruled for some time. They were black.

Did you know that Sudan has ancient pyramids too?
The Sahara desert did a lot of damage to the rest of black Africa.

It's one reason I like this thread. Apart from a few blockheads who have nothing to contribute, there's actually a lot to learn.

Kenya GDP rebasing

The rebasing shows that Kenya's nominal GDP crossed the KShs 10 Trillion mark in 2019 to stand at KShs 10.3 Trillion. In 2020, it stood at KShs 10.8 Trillion. Before the rebasing, the 2019 nominal GDP had been calculated at KShs 9.7 Trillion.

After the rebasing of the GDP the share of Agriculture's contribution to GDP has been reduced from 34.1% to 23% (-11.1%)
Some of the sectors whose contribution has been increased are;
1. Real estate from 6.9% to 9.3%, (+2.4%)
2. Transport and storage from 8.5% to 10.8% (+2.3%)
3. Public administration and defence from 3.6% to 5.5%, (+1.9)
4. Construction from 5.6% to 7%. (+1.4%)
5. Information and communication from 1.2% to 2.5% (1.3%)

1) Egypt was black - More like Berber at North and Nubia at the lower egypt
2) Arabs came to Africa later - with spread of Islam and others - Arabs found Berbers and other Africans
3) Yellow Nile - West Africa was connected to Egypt through Lake Chad - there was big tributary that is now buried under the sand that emptied lake chad into Nile.
4) Lake chad was one big lake - that is fast disappearing.

I think I because west Africa was a forest(different from north east Africa)
And we were on survival mode(maybe we ran from something)
Nevertheless we still did a lot
I have a feeling that we were on the way to an African renaissance just before the Europeans came
I mean
A renaissance comes after conflict and need to improve
The fall of the Oyo,bornu etc especially that of Oyo was perfect for an awakening in technology

KNBS releases 2020 economic data amid rebasing
Economic contracted by negative 0.3 percent
But due to rebasing the revised nominal GDP was estimated at 10.753 trillion in 2020 from 10.256 trillion in 2019.
That about 100B dollars with Kshs weaken to 108 to a dollar.

Which pidgin is making to oxford - Kiswahili is an international language - dont compare it with crap like that.

Kenyans speak better English - as near as British English as you can get in Africa - maybe outside parts of South Africa.

This why Lumumba PLO is all over Africa making money

Lol u worry to much about that fool.Nigerian pidgin are making it to Oxford dictionary.let Swahili achieve that in the next century and see if that wouldn’t be a Herculean task.

Kenya Interest rate - has actually dropped post removal of interest rate capping. Nigeria and Ghana will get here in year 2050.

Kenya I think is better than both SA and Uganda - at least the urban kenya English. There is a lot of tribal interference even in the upper class of Uganda and South Africa - an hint of West Africa mess.

West Africans simply turn English (Nasal Language) into Kiswahili/Japanase/Latin (Tonal Languages).

They simply turn English into Yoruba or Ibo or Fulani - and literally pronounce words as they are written - more like Kiswahili.

Shma2020:
Only Uganda and SA are ranked ahead of kenya in proper English speaking.

Kenyans speak fluent English. Not an amalgamation of two disparate languages like gheniuns.

Say West Africans who mispronounce almost every word. Arguably the most horrible of English one can imagine of....turning a Nasal language into a tonal language.

Kenya has one of Africa's most neutral English accent.

Which explain why Kenya has thriving if not small BPO - call center - market.


The good thing about call centre [work] is the [Kenyan] accents are very, very good and neutral.
Number two is there are some amount of saturation levels reaching India and Philippines, and
number three is attrition levels in these countries and companies operating in these companies are
crazy high . . . So I think the customers are . . . saying ‘I need . . . a new source’. (Interview,

My friend, you should have known by now, that I only engage you on matters visual. When I have pictures and videos to share, please engage me. Otherwise data is clearly above your paygrade.

Kenya secondary transition now at nearly 100 percent - a first in Africa - gov is now hunting for kids in slums - who may be too poor to afford - and awarding scholarship. This 4th year where 100 percent transition has been achieved. About 1.1M kids sat for primary exams - and transition to secondary schools.

Which claim is that? I have simply said I will continue to doubt the data until 1) I see Nigeria export some rice 2) I see Nigeria allow for imports - remove rice from forex ban list - then I will believe that Nigeria rice production has double while it's at war almost.

obaaderemi:
If it were an intellectual exercise, you wouldn't be throwing around unverified claims as facts as you have done here severally against Ghana and Nigeria.

Desperate for what? This for me is an intellectual exercise. I dont have any stake in Nigeria - it's economy or it's politics.

obaaderemi:
He is desperate.

Why can't they import directly. Uganda uses Kenya port to import their goods. Kenya doesn't import and re-export to Uganda. The only reason why Benin import tonnes of rice it cannot consume it because Nigeria has made it difficult for it's citizen to import - so it re-exported to Nigeria - through various smuggling route. The same with Cameroon.

That is why Buhari had to block the border...but I doubt the problem will go away...as long as Nigeria so called domestic rice is very expensive.

Nigeria rice production will become a success story only once they 1) Are able to remove import restriction - meaning their rice is competitive as any and 2)Are able to export to the region.

But so far I dont know if it's Buhari Propaganda or there is truly a rice revolution.

IGpro1:
so your argument is based on the fact that Benin imports more rice than they can consume.
Let me help you, Benin is a major import route for many landlocked francophone countries,
Niger imports most of their rice from Benin and rice is their main staple there.
Same with Mali and Burkina Faso.
Only cars and wears comes through Benin in reasonable quantity.

When 10M people Benin was amongst the top 10 world importer - you were running around claiming to be the biggest producer.

Below are the 15 countries that imported the highest dollar value worth of rice during 2020.
China: US$1.5 billion (5.8% of total rice imports)
Saudi Arabia: $1.4 billion (5.6%)
United States: $1.3 billion (5.1%)
Iran: $881 million (3.5%)
Philippines: $862 million (3.5%)
Iraq: $640.8 million (2.6%)
Benin: $635.9 million (2.5%)
United Kingdom: $619.9 million (2.5%)
Malaysia: $589.5 million (2.4%)
France: $588.1 million (2.4%)
United Arab Emirates: $560.2 million (2.2%)
South Africa: $546.7 million (2.2%)
Japan: $503.6 million (2%)
Germany: $462.9 million (1.9%)
Canada: $445.1 million (1.8%)

Look like after closing border with Benin, you're now back to importing directly

Kikuyu1 posted this:


I can see you are still hurt by the rice production issue in Nigeria. Your pain can not stop the fact that Nigeria's rice importation has dropped significantly due to higher production. We are Africa's largest producer.

Pseudo-data that is available is used to counter-check data; this what likes of Prof Ryan uses to check for any cooking; It likes the rice story - where it had shifted to Benin. For now - we can say importation of rice has gone down - but unless you have consumption data - you never know - maybe nigerians have reduce consumption of rice - and are eating yams. Same way they ended up eating cow skins. So you we have be careful..

But definitely for Nigeria - I'd distrust any official data and use PSEUDO-DATA. Secondary data.

kikuyu1:
I still occasionally lol at the whole rice story! Our own economic rebasing is due later in the year and the recent door 2 door census will greatly help. I do know much real estate at the county level hasn't been captured while there's been increasing retail formalisation even in rural areas coupled with greater agricultural yields.
I can't find the figures right now but IIRC Elgeyo Marakwet, Nakuru and Nyandarua were shown to have doubled their GCP between 2013- 2017. Despite the 'Ronadrama with the fundamentals being solid we can reasonably expect more excellent growth with just a visual test. Eg, Nyahururu wherein I spent 5 yrs in Nyandarua 2015 had 5 supermarkets . Now there's 8.
Imo expect a 25-30% larger GDP which will validate the stats we've been providing throughout this thread.

The guy cooked and faked most of the data. That is why he survived for that long in an incredibly corrupt and quarrelsome country like Nigeria.

Nigeria is almost at war - with people being kidnapped - data collection is the last thing they will do. Agriculture minister when asked for rice production figures quoted Indeximulli. They dont have any solid data...just wild guesses and extrapolation.

Census is a luxury - national household surveys impossible - any dat from Yemi Kale is pure nonsense.

Only data you can trust is those verifiable by international data - like export/imports

Stupid Kenyan elder man with the brains of a poopy what make ur source more credible than his?

Don't sulk. We asked for credible report - like this
https://www.irena.org/-/media/Files/IRENA/Agency/Publication/2021/Apr/IRENA_RE_Capacity_Statistics_2021.pdf

South Africa - 5000MW
Egypt - 1,600Mw
Morroco - 750mw
Algeria - 450mw
Senegal - 155MW
Then no 6 is kenya at 106MW.

AfriqueDuZuid:
They are so kenyacentric they think the world is sleeping.

Because others are not amazed at development, we used to it Zimbabwe has bigger installed capacity than them

This started very early - it's linked to cooperatives - providing solar systems as loan products.

kikuyu1:
They're 25x our pop! Anyway it's easily believable- wherever you are in Kenya, from the hottest driest desert of L Chalbi near L Turkana to Lokoitokitok by Tz someone is selling solar panels!

Yada yada in a topic you barely understand - there are half-baked reports out there - but anybody who knows Solar System - knows Kenya is world leader in the developing world especially in home System.

M-Kopa for example has 0.5M customers in Kenya - on their pay as you go solar system.

This what you generator country should be doing - kenya has maybe 2.5M household with solar power installed - and solar mini-grids.

In terms of big installation - kenya has 50MW power plant - and many small ones.

Noise!!! Kenya didn’t make the list cos u have nothing. Ur cooked up data couldnt deceive the rest of the world. U were omitted cos you don’t have nada .believe ur govt at ur own peril.

Actually kenya is better than India
https://sun-connect-ea.org/kenya-has-overtaken-india-to-become-the-number-one-market-for-solar-systems/

A new report by the Renewable Energy Policy Network for the 21st Century (REN21) schows that the high demand means the government’s efforts to connect Kenyans to the national electricity grid might not be yielding the desired effects. In 2019, when Kenya went ahead of India in the purchase of solar systems, Kenyans bought 1.97 million units of solar power systems. They use the systems to light up their homes as well as power electronic devices including charging their phones and power TV and entertainment units. The units Kenyans bought grew 55 per cent last year, compared to the 1.2 million units that were purchased in 2018. India, which has been the leading market for solar systems, bought 1.6 million units in 2019, a 31 per cent drop compared to the two million acquired the previous year

Look half-baked. Kenya has a lot of solar power installation - leads in mini-solar systems and such. I think for a very long time Kenya has had the largest private sector dominated solar PV home systems of any developing nation.

AfriqueDuZuid:
Solar energy in Africa

Yes lots of manufacturers and big institutions are now generating their own independent power (including yours truly);

kenya is one world leading in terms of small solar installation. I think kenya is second to India

The Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS) data shows that some 2.3 million households used solar for lighting, representing about 19.3 per cent of the total number of homes with rural areas recording 30 per cent growth.

1/4 of debt you cannot repay. I am glad kenya did not get ensnared by Tullow like Ghana. Oil is gone. We are doing well in renewable. Already top 10 in Geothermal. That is where we need to focus.

Oil is the past - the future is renewable energy.

Just30:
See how confused you are




3/4th of all the gas consumed by Ghana comes from Ghana oil fields which are pumping huge gas...

Our failure to consume all the gas we produce has already cause All the large oil companies to pull out of Kenya .... which has left kenyatta with no option but to used buckets to fetch his country oil, since Kenya cant afford the technology

You're still struggling to settle gas debt to Nigeria
https://www.newtelegraphng.com/ghana-settles-42m-debt-to-nigeria-gas-company/

Coal is cheapest - by far - of any power source. If you have coal like South Africa, China or US - and you dont care about enviroment.
Next would be hydro.
When you stop importing gas from Nigeria and soon Ivory coast...talk about it being cheap.

Just30:
It takes 3 years to build a thermal plant
Coal has mostly been phased out

no one wants it

Ghana rejected a 1000MW coal plant in favour of gas-fired thermal plants because we have enough gas to last us a 100 years which we receive at no cost
