From the content above, you only have a total of 78400km total road network. Out of it, Only 77% is tarred/PAVED. Quick math gives us 18,000km thereabout. Kenya was there around 2015-2017 when Uhuru had not unleashed his g@nja on road infrastructure.

Bonus:
From the same report, Ghana had only added 68km of the new road network - which has already been factored in 18k km total paved. If we add 1200 asphalt overlay of the existing unpaved road... It will give us a paltry 1268km
newly paved section, for the past 5yrs( 2017-2022). For a country that produces gold, oil, cocoa.. With possession of huge arable land.... That Is a disgrace.

If your road network in 2017 was 18000 and you've added 68km, then you should be doing 18,068km in 2022.


Ghana has only added 68km of new roads. The asphalt overlay is different. It's like re-carpeting the existing section, which in this case; will not count.

Keep hoping that Ghana will join you in that league .. by close of year, Ghana 400 billion cedis debt will be less than 50% of GDP. IMF projection are mostly based on the assumption that more debt will be taken in 2023 with a the projection made under prevailing condition,which can't happen.

As we speak, your country is already looking to borrow another 3 billion dollars from the UK while your president is smooching IMF ass for another money.

Talking about infrastructure.... You and your country men are yet to mention any infrastructure that your country has more of than Ghana.
Electricity
Roads
Water
SGR
Housing stock
Housing under construction
Education
Health
None of them

Sleep for you have nothing

That's the SCAR H with guys en route to the DRC. It's being inducted with the regulars after being restricted with Airborne and SOF. Everyone loves it! Fyi, they've experience with G3s, M4s, FNs and AKs which says a LOT.

@jl115, here is your answer. Our KDF has both light and heavy FN SCAR. The machine that was previously used by special forces.

Just40:
like you said... Projection but at the moment it is 68%

Only a fool like you rely on projections ...

Boy we have show much to show for our borrowing.. we own profitable assets by investing debt into our oil and gas sector which churns out lots of money for us from now into the future.

Spare us your selective amnesia. The link I gave out has a clear de-facto debt to GDP data; which is 78%.

People who are lending you: IMF and WB, are projecting a whopping 104% of Ghanaian debt to GDP in 2023 - that is now an estimation, meticulously done by your lenders. They ain't throwing hot air.

kikuyu1:
To think I suggested on ToT Gh should go for a MASSIVE century bond, collateralizing their gold and bauxite for a 50 yr bond of min 35 to max 50 bn $ to fix their infrastructure! I was fooled by their facade.
To finally get water, sewerage, airports and harbours to grow their GDP. Truly, life is a learning experience!? Luckily for me I'm not a Waffas, meaning I'm not emotionally attached to my previous conclusions I now admit were laughably WRONG

@kikuyu1 nailed it.

vankelvin:
Why would you want to extend your debt payment? It's because you are highly indebted, broke and cannot pay as per the original contract stipulates

It doesn't work that way, my friend. Spare us your buffoonery. What we need is economic freedom. We need room to breathe. We need to expand other sectors of our economy. Extending the debt maturity period is part of the strategy to achieve the aforementioned.

Just40:
your minister has already done the comparison for you.

Paying 4 billion dollars for just 480km SGR is just insane ... Now you want China to give you another money so you can extend it from Nairobi to naivasha and they are saying no because you've already defaulted on the 4 billion dollars.

SAVE WORDS.

vankelvin:
Not at all
This is a classic example of your country's inability to pay off it's debt

No, it's a high-voltage strategic decision. We don't want to fall into economic quagmire like ghana. We can pay SGR debt easily, but re-structuring debt payment period to a longer time, will make it more easier and less training to service it. Since we will now have to focus on other profit-accruing projects.

Just40:
I'm not concern about my 68% to GDP debt because all of it was invested into profit making businesses so they can be paid back.

Yours, you can't pay and went for debt freeze, debt restructuring and ended up defaulting even under IMF.

Go and lie to fools. International monetary fund and WB are both projecting your debt to GDP at 100+% by the start of next year.

You're currently doing a whopping 78% with nothing to show.

Ak47, R4, R5,Ar16, CR21 I've shot....haven't shot a Scar but it uses a short stroke piston action... Similar to the Ar16 so yeah I would say I know what I'm talking about.

Cool.

China don run Kenya street

Nigerian, you have more external debt than Kenya. More than $70billion - That is nearly twice ours. Your currency is on the verge of devaluation. You have more problems than we do. Focus on your issues first.

[quote author=vankelvin post=118203376][/quote]That's a win affair for Kenya. SGR is still there. It will keep paying itself even before time expires.

Just40:
go and read the agreement and stop making useless noise.

How will Ghana govt collateralized private property? Which law is that legal under?

You're mad, go and deal with your govt

I am glad that you're concerned with our paltry debt. Yours is beyond concern.

jl115:
My bru I grew up with guns... You don't need to copy and past caliber sizes... The fact is the FN Scar isn't even the most powerful rifle in the KDF since the KDF also operate larger caliber than even 7.62... So even if you have FN Scar in 7.62 it still isn't the most powerful rifle in service with the KDF.

In general the FN Scar is a decent rifle, but it is complicated and prone to jamming if not kept clean... Its also one of the reasons why the Navy seals rejected it.

The emboldened is the reason enough why I shouldn't engage you. But then again, I doubt if you've ever used an FN-SCAR( special force compact rifle) of any type. That factor alone drives us to a level pegging ground. You have to hit google to dig out information.

Also, the only version abandoned by the US navy seal was the light version of FN-SCAR. This is due to its heavy weight and jamming at some point.

"The U.S. Special Operations Command later canceled their purchase of the SCAR-L and planned to remove the rifle from their inventory by 2013. However, they will continue to purchase the SCAR-H version, and also plan to purchase 5.56 mm conversion kits for the SCAR-H, allowing it to substitute for the SCAR-L ."

Apart from the aforementioned, I agree with the rest of your points.

jl115:
it's a 5.56mm.....do you understand what that means?

Your deamining character is screaming, that's why without doing reach, you concluded that we only operate on an FN SCAR-L(5.56) - which is still lethal notwithstanding the weight. My friend, we have both HEAVY( 7.62×51mm) and LIGHT(5.56 ×45mm) special OP compact.
You can check it out from Kenya Ordnance Factories Corporation(KOFC) page.
And yes, 5.56 is just a cartridge power.

jl115:
the FN scar of the kdf is 5.56mm.....there are many more powerful caliber in service even with the KDF

Nah, bru. I still believe FN scar is the most lethal combat rifle in Kenya.

FN scar is only used by KDF military in the continent.

Kazikazi:
Do u even have pilots go fly planes?
What happened in cameroon? Your low skilled pilots killed over 100 people in that crash.What can u teach a Tanzanian?

Our precision air wasn't crashed in the same manner your kq crashed in cameroon. Ours was an intelligent crash.When a pilot realized he can't do anything more to avoid the accident he sent the plane Into the lake.That means you can still be able to save the passengers and later on the plane can be pulled out,cleaned,and fit new engines and hit a sky again.

But your Cameroonian crash was dumb.The whole plane crashed on the forest.Every one was killed.the whole plane destroyed. But surprisingly, you wanna teach us about planes?

We're in 2022. 2007 is many years back - when magufuli( the hope that fooled all of you that you have anything on Kenya) was still out of the picture. Focus on your useless pilot who has killed 20+ humans and still rising - that is the status quo. In 2022, we should have nearly zero airplane accidents; especially due to partial disorientation or carelessness.

[quote author=Kazikazi post=118164931]Ruto came and slashed that fake budget by over 3b dollars.Why? It was fake,artificial budget which couldn't do basic stuff like fighting hunger.
Very sad.You come shouting about big budget but at the same time people are starving? Can't u see a fake budget there?
Things are tough.You have reached a point of eating uneatable stuff like chameleons. Why can't you come clean by saying about the true size of your economy? How can u lie about having a bigger GDP than TZ but your lives is terrible?
Sad.Very sad[/quote]He slashed that budget, so what? Does it change anything? Tanzania budget can't go past the spectrum of a million USD. That attempt will kill your hopeless lazy infested republic economically. You need to have a stable economy for you to start spending 3trillion on a budget. it's not easy my friend. Our economy would have collapsed a long time ago, with those kinds of attempts - but due to stable economy, we are still moving strong.

1ksh is equivalent to 20 Tanzanian shillings. For you to match our economy, you should start by stabilizing your currency. You can't possess useless currency then expect rain. You need to think.

You have nearly twice Kenya's population, your tax revenue is a mere $5billion, How can you compare with Kenyan economy which is doing nearly thrice that?
Try to think, at least for once. Don't disparage yourself as a madman.

Kazikazi:
who in his right mind will trust your figures? Since when have kenyan gov stopped cooking data?
You remember what u did on road network figures?
You remember what u did on hunger index?
You remember about your overrated GDP?
You remember about last mile connection hoax?

Kill the inferiority complex, man. Do you actually believe a republic with one interchange, low-class international airport, high literacy level can stand Kenya? Reduce g@nja#, my Friend.

What did we do to our GDP? The last time I checked, our budget from the past 4 years has been playing @ nearly 4 trillion; around 3 to 4 trillion thereabout. That's more or less 28% of our norminal GDP.
Tell us, what is your annual budget?
How much do you collect on VAT?
Enlighten us.

900 kdf have been sent to congo. Expect peace to prevail soon. KDF is something else, they don't joke around. They are strategists and most intelligent. Nearly each of them has an FN scar - one of the most powerful rifles in the world.

@kazikazi, when you start laughing at your big boys, expect nothing less but disaster.
When Kenyan pilots are on strike, expect all EAC nations to be on standstill. Now see your low-level incompetent pilot plunging the plain in the lake.
You need to be patient and wait until our pilot's grievances are heard.

Kenya is already facing hyperinflation and it is part of the reason why general cost of commodity is expensive there than in Ghana..with the weekly change in cost of food stuff in your shithole.. mother's are already crying about being unable to feed their children

Ghana hasn't gotten there yet

I didn't say that, WB said that. Data is staring straight into your eyes, indicating that Ghana, South Sudan(wartone), Somali & of course zimb are in the same WhatsApp group - failed and mismanaged sh*tholes. Trying to fix Kenya in your mess is what we call "Throwing hot air. " deal with your de facto state FIRST, when Kenyan currency hit 128% depreciation rate, I will join you in the discussion.

Kenya has a serious cost of living crisis as most Kenyans can't feed themselves
With food prices and basic commodity prices far higher than cost in Ghana.
There's fear that without serious decision taken, the world might have another terrible humanitarian crisis.
This is all happening because Kenyans are lazy and generally poor, always tipping at the edge of a crisis.

Yes, there is inflation in Kenya. That's not the point.
The point here is ghana is on the verge pf facing hyperinflation - Kenya is not anywhere close.

1. Nigerians acquired Telekom Kenya , the oldest telecommunications provider in Kenya.
2. The largest IT center in Kenya is I-Hub; it was purchased by black Nigerians.
3. Kenya's Sidian Bank and the Transnational Bank of Kenya. (Kenya's oldest banks) — now Access banks , which are currently earning profits instead of losses

There is nothing like Telekom kenya. If you don't know the company name, how sure are you that Nigeria acquired it?
Drop us Nigeria company name which acquired it - before we advance this topic.

Don't just spew nonsense.

68816419:
This project is a white elephant because 99% of the people involved would never be able to buy the homes , similar projects of this nature have recently been created and were resold by the same Kibera residents only to return to the slums. just cut the nonsense out.

Only a policyless zoo like Nigeria can fail to implement slum eradication. There is nothing impossible in Kenya, as long as brains are in power. First thing first, build decent alternative houses, reduce rent, initiate the agenda, then ban shacks. It's possible. This is not a zoo, where slums are sprawling even to the central business area.

Do you think if Rishi Sunak's father was born in Nigeria he would get the UK premiership? More likely they would strip search for drugs and deport him to Zoogeria on a whim.

This question will drive us to the next several questions,
How?
How how , how?
How?
How can a bokoharam infested zoo produce a leader of such caliber?
How can a drag-and-scammer-ridden republic produce a descend leader??
We need to check the environment and education system. Nigeria produces some of the dumbest humans on the planet - when you compare it with kenya.

Imagine a zoo that has taken 70decades exporting oil and whatnot yet they can't handle their hiking poverty?

Nigerians should stick to music and witchcraft.

Kibera shacks will not be around in the next 7yrs.
This is president ruto breaking ground for more than 4500 units of affordable houses in kibera.

The curious thing is: why is it that Kenyans can't achieve anything tangible until they mix with whites, Indians, Nigerians, etc? Anything tangible coming out of Kenya must have the hand of a foreigner in it.

Obama- white mother
Rishi- Indian parents
Mpesa- British founders
Cellulant- Nigerian co-founder
Nairobi- founded by British
Mombasa- founded by Arabs
Richest kenyans- Indians

Your genes are weak and bad and must always be diluted. You are a shame to the human race.

Think of it like this. Any powerful international figure has a thing to do with Kenya or SA, why? Does it mean we're naturally gifted, blessed, or it's the nature of Kenya's intellegence and education system? A Kenyan father has produced USA president.
A Kenya father(of indian descent) has produced a UK prime minister.
Kenyan top brains have founded Mpesa.
Fastest man in Africa is a Kenyan.
Best marathoner of the year ( worldwide) is a Kenyan.
What else. Rugby? we dominate it as all blacks. Nigerians that I know, don't have a brain for handling complex sports like rugby. They can only play a common local football.
Nigeria is a mineral-dependent economy. Kenya is brains dependent.
