Wow! I never knew Ghana can have such a nice place. Kudos! This is actually the best video I've seen from Ghana. And by far the best judging from west African standards.
CNN hero of the year: A Kenyan --- cerebral capacity has to be involved. Tech has to be involved. Kenya is breeding top-notch intelligence in the world.
IGpro1: All of a sudden, GDP figure is now important to Kenyans,
Kenyans have feminine behaviour... They argue like house wives
On the Dressing part.. If your dressing originates from the western world, you should evolve with them.
Suits, trousers, shirts and the likes are supposed to be fitted these days, But these Kenyans have refused to evolve, They are left in the 60s when the fashion then was buggy dresses, oversized suits and trousers, big ties and odd shoes with pointed curved mouth. In Nigeria, we tend to even teach the whites how it is worn,
And we pride In our cultural attires even at the govt level.
Kenyans talking if night life? when Lagos is the entertainment capital of Africa
jl115: yes I know.....that wasn't the bone of contention, you said the growth used was constant for all the years....which clearly it isn't..... Yet another common Shma L
The bone of contention was projected data --- data from 2023 onwards. Yes. I said all the rates from 2023 were static. I was very correct, my my bro.
Just30: Uhuru is not even richer than the Bediako brothers in Ghana let alone be a billionaire so sleep na there's nothing in your uncivilized village like richness.
Read and cry more
That is your topic, not mine. I am not here to compare Uhuru with hobbits. Uhuru is a dollar billionaire. One of the richest men in Africa. His wealth will never be documented.
Now I see you've jumped into individual's wealth. Amazing!
Lemme enlighten you. Do you know kenya,Egyptt, Nigeria, morocco, and south africa accounts for 50% of the total African wealth? Kenya has nearly 3 times high net individuals than Ghana --- and majority stay in rural areas.
As quaoted: The continent of Africa contains more than 50 countries, but just five account for more than half of total wealth on the continent: South Africa, Egypt, Nigeria, Morocco, and Kenya.
Also your reasons were that the EFF will be in charge in 2024, the only way you could come to that conclusion is if you are smoking some good sh1t.... The fact is the EFF are in real danger of becoming the 4th largest party after Action SA
2022 is the actual data. 2023 onwards is projections.
Just30: so you've moved from accepting that it is a 2018 data back to your nonsense claim ? Big wan*ker
Shut up there Uhuru is not a billionaire even with your country stolen wealth. Which village does he live in? The man is Afraid and ran to build a cottage in the middle of a forest to escape vagabonds overruning his house.
Go build that big slumish ZOO you live in and stop comparing yourself to countries far better than you in all things.
Dwarf, There is data, and then there is date. Those two are entirely two different things. I don't have to teach you basic things. I accepeted data not date.
Data are facts and statistics collected together for reference or analysis
Why are you displaying the low-quality education you experience in Ghana ? You're dealing with foreigners... People from the most advanced system of education.
This is the definition of date:
Date is the day of the month or year as specified by a number.
Whether uhuru is a billionaire or not, he's still richer than any existing hobbit. And yes, you just proved my point. His stay in the village justifies my previous point on the urbanization rate.
Just30: Deal with the data and stop all the complains
Nothing has changed to cause improvement for any of your towns.... For instance in 2021, of the 22 urban centers in all of Kenya, 11 is in the greater Nairobi area. That is how I know nothing has improved in the rest of your country.
Do you want to weep over that too
I don't dispute data. It clearly doesn't make sense for me to show up with 15yrs old data when I have a year-old data. Only M0rons will buy into that sh"t.
Urbanization topic was sealed long time ago. Building slums everywhere for the sake of boosting urbanization is a silly and backward idea. Uhuru Kenyatta and many more dollar billionaires are enjoying their posh life in villages.
Just30: Which is not enough time for anywhere else in Kenya to become a city .... Have you seen a survey that takes place in 2007 contain results from 2016 and 2018…? Like a told you, just take your shame of a country and go compare with Rwanda and Uganda, the report is 2018
You see the madness that is doing you
Mombasa first dual carriage road is still under construction
I can post a blog today with ghana beyond aid campaign ( where Nairobi of 1990 was lifted as your 50 year vision --- dream ) yes, it took place 5 yrs ago, but the published date was today. or I can drop WB data for our 2017 GDP. No message will be distorted, just the date.
Check the original post and post the link here. If you don't have dwarf balls.
Rwand and Uganda have nearly the same GDP, population, geographical size, wealth, and pretty much everything like Ghana. Those are your twins, not Kenya's.
Kakamega village has massive dual road. Lodwa --- a drought-infested region, where we have less than 1% of Kenya's population --- has dual carriage. Ghana should learn.
Just30: cry more .... The List is 2016 as you can see on the top of it..
Nairobi is a Slum and mostly village
2016 is 6 years ago, almost a decade. But that was when the source was posted -- from UN blog. The survey took place in 2007, 15yrs ago, when you were in high school or uni, perhaps. I was in primary school by then.
Even so, we have 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 -- all those were years of sheer transformation.
Why are you ashamed to post the communities in Nairobi? The slum capital is less developed, deal with it
List of Africa major urban cities
Again, 2007 data... This data expired long time ago.
These are key takeaways of our 10yrs business and transformation.:
The decade saw the rise of fintech, agritech, e-commerce, transport solutions while a serious disruption rendered most business models irrelevant as technology and innovation became the epicentre of every successful business. In the decade, a rise in the number of women contributing to the growth and adoption of emerging technologies has boosted inclusion. The growth of technology hubs, parks and accelerators in the past decade cannot be underestimated, as they contribute to the expansion of the digital economy. The country is still at the awareness stage of emerging technologies, which landed in 2016, so few players exist in these fields
I've gone through it, and yes. If we stick with their methodology, we might catch up in 2090.
But that is different from my point of view. mark this quote.
Shma2022: It' s a matter of common sense. If you decompound that data well, you'll realize they just based their findings on the forecast of GDP growth rate... Bigger economies will still stand high.
Lemme give you an instance:
In 2005, your projected GDP growth rate was around 4.3% -- one of the highest! By then, your GDP was around $333B -- two years down the line, your economy shrank to $316B -- $329B respectively. You're now projecting your GDP growth rate for the year 2023 to 1.1%. let's see if you can achieve that. My projection for your 2023 GDP growth rate is -3%... Your GDP will shrink a little bit due to a lackluster economy -- rise in load shedding, poor governance, and pretty much everything brought by the ANC. And in 2024 --- I believe you'll have the aggressive Malema. He will grab back the land and reinstate the blacks. That will be a catastrophe for the South African economy! That will be the end of the reign. Your GDP 2yrs down the line will be paddling their own canoe. Boers will have very little to add --- and perhaps, just like Ghanaian daughters and sons of slaves in UK and US; you will be left seeking your roots in Europe. By then, your economy will shrink by more than 50% before reinstatement and growth start happening - That is 3 yrs down the line. Kenya by then will be having close to $300B.
Good. If you went through it, you'll realize the growth rate is static. Like for Kenya --- it's projected with a growth rate of 5.5% --- to 2027. That will be mathematically impossible to catch up with SA in 2027, or even 2030. Kenya's GDP growth rate is dynamic.
But my logic towards this everything is totally different from RVP's. I believe SA economy will crumble. I'm not praying for it's death though, don't get me wrong.
jl115: What more do you want? I gave you IMF and PWC projections..... What have you cited to prove your argument? Absolutely nothing, you haven't posted 1 projection that shows Kenya ahead of SA
Well, seems we're not on the same page.
Just pluck 10years - to date. Pick one institution: IMF or WB, drop there forecast for 2022, and let's check the validity and accuracy of these projections.
Just30: now you've jumped to another thing? The economy of Ghana is not just centered in one city like in Kenya where there rest of the country is useless. Ours is greatly spread around 3 cities Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi.
Keep crying
Nakuru has bigger economy than Accra. Kenya is a not a dwarf republic where their biggest city depicts a market.
Outside tiny Accra -- which can't make city status in Kenya, what other town have you ever proudly posted?
jl115: the IMF economic outlook was updated October this year.... And you want to compare it to a CNN article from 2013?
Also how is CNN a news site more reliable wrt economic matters than the IMF? You smoking some good sh1t
Understand the point! Don't be a buffoon. I said don't over rely on IMF.
IMF is not God of projections. Use your brain and analyze the data by yourself. Where were you in 2011 vs now. Where was Kenya then vs now? What are the economic growth rate trends...
Just 2018 and the issue you're being ranked on are core issues that are structural and your GDP has very little to do with it.
It will take Nairobi 50 years to improve on those stuff and catch up with Accra.
15-year-old report... Who will take you seriously with this kind of disabled information-seeking skills?
You need to expand your horizon of thinking. 15 years ago, Kenya was not dominating in huge indices. We ranked the 5th most dynamic city in the world starting 2019... That is when we started seeing huge progress, both in tech, human, green and infrastructure development.
Before we focus on one aspect, let's introduce others.
Just30: keep crying That was 2018 .. I thought you were going to contest it.
See the same on your face... You think your country can just change all of that in 4 years?
Nairobi basically scored 0 and negative in everything.. go and improve before you ever think of comparing that dumpster to even Lagos, let alone Accra.
No, that was in 2007. The year our GDP was $31B. In 2022 --- Kenya is way advance.
Just30: Let me laugh Go argue with UN-HABITAT This is their list of the most sustainable African cities and Nairobi score -4 The cities are ranked on environmental governance, sanitation, water, waste , transport, land use, energy and CO2, air quality
Sustainable city index Cape town Durban Joburg Casablanca Accra Tunis Lagos Addis Ababa Alexandria Cairo Pretoria Nairobi Dar es salaam Maputo Luanda
Nakuru is not a city and Mombasa isn't either, according to the UN and their economies can only be compared to Temale.
Hobbit, That was for 2007 --- 15years ago. Don't just post anything. I was 100% sure you will come up with this kind of defensive-nonsensical.
Again, Nakuru was upgraded for a city in 2020 --- our city standards is not the same as Ghana. Accra for instance won't make to be a city in Kenya.
I think the hobbit that I am waiting for is probably enjoying the ban... Justo40 was suspense for sure --- for his continuous gibberish and word-wasting. I'm not sure about the other moniker -- justo30? I think he has just beaten a hasty retreat or he's busy typing verbiage of nonsensical stuff.
