if u think malls are signs of development... u need to start learning what development is all about very fast.

rvp20183:
Gikomba is something to be ashamed of; It like kibera slums. It a sign of underdevelopment. For nigeria such flea markets are badges of honour.

rvp20183:
You're indeed illiterate as suffernSmilling won't say. I see you guys referring to informal trade - as if it was something to be proud of. We have largest flea or farmers market :? We have petty traders in Ghana? We have user motor car spare dealers all over west africa.

All that is NONSENSE - categorized under BLACK or INFORMAL market.

NO country has ever developed from such nonsense. That is why Nigeria tax collection is nearly zero.

Kindly go back to school - all of you - and then start formalizing your economy.

Danielnino00:
Kano has one of the biggest commercial markets in sub Sahara Africa... Ibadan also has an industrial estate and housing estates..

Having malls isn't a sign of development my friend ..the city of Ibadan alone has seven malls!! Try something else..

What else do the other cities (or towns have?

Ibrahimanis:
There is nothing to be jealous about.

Apapa port in Lagos has an install capacity of 1.2million teu per year. Handles 25million tons of cargo per year.
What is that of Mombasa?

Anyway even if Mombasa handles more than apapa, that's because you have no other option. Apart from Mombasa port which other active port do you have?

Compare these two pictures and tell me why I should be jealous.

NairobiWalker:
He's denying it even when I post its website there.

rvp20183:
I am not expert in Nigeria history but I know the main motivation for northern misleaders of Nigeria moving to Abuja was to be comfortable. I think the move from Lagos to Abuja happened after Orkar coup in 1991. I am positive Sani Abacha was key player then.

Danielnino00:
Would you mind explaining what Nakuru,Eldoret,Kisumu and Nyeri have that contributes significantly to Kenya's economy?

for example, Port Harcourt and Warri have a sizeable portion of our oil rigs...

Aba and Onitsha have the biggest markets in Africa

Ibadan and Kano are heavy commercialized areas ... etc etc...

Danielnino00:
Seriously, if we take Nairobi out of Kenya, what does the rest of the country become??

How evenly spread is the development in Kenya?
I'm not talking about just roads and electricity oo..But industrialization too....


If we take Lagos away from Nigeria, we still have Abuja that's the political capital ..We still have Ogun state that's has nearly more industries than Lagos... We still have cities like Ibadan,Aba,Onitsha,Kano,Enugu and Owerri with a lot of industries too...
We have calabar thats the tourist capital...
Further down south, there's Uyo,Port Harcourt, Asaba,Warri, and Benin city... Heck! even Kaduna and Jos can boast of one or two industries..


I'll be really glad if the Kenyans can list other cities (or towns or whatever) in their country that has a strong economic influence apart from Nairobi...

NairobiWalker:
The problem with you Nigerians is lies.

It was founded by Nigerians and has it hq in Nigeria

Nigeria has others like payporte, konga

Ibrahimanis:
Say what you want smart nigga. The fact remains Kenya is in debt crisis, more than Nigeria. A certain percentage of our debt was written off because of some major reforms done by the government. If your government can do the same, maybe yours will be written off too. If not, prepare to build another port because China is coming for Mombasa port. (or you can use Tanzania's port for a fee). The ball is in your court smart nigga.

darfay:
Jumia is the 5th most visited website in Kenya. We really dominate those fools

Dint you notice your people sneaking in slums in the middle of a debate about streets because they know if they stick to proper streets they'll get a whooping.

NairobiWalker:
He loves shifting goals. He tries everything he thinks he can win and I still beat him. It would be interesting if I played the same game with him.

NairobiWalker:
It's still in Nairobi. You love excuses - I posted photos of neighborhoods far from the CBD and you instead responding by searching the shitty areas of Nairobi and posting them. You're obviously not honest with your questions. You keep shifting the goals. It doesn't matter - I can even post photos of streets tens of kilometres from the CBD and you'll come up with another issue.

South Africa racial discrimination(2019),same happens on a daily bases in Indians owned schools in Kenya.

Goel:
Well, what could I say if you're going to ignore.

Le'm introduce myself because I haven't earlier. I'm a professional pressure equipment related technology engineer from India and research about geopolitical, military technology and economic issues is my hobby.

I had been with a lot of Pakistanis, Chinese, Russians, SE Asians, Iranians, Arabs, Latinos, Europeans & Americans, learning a lot about their countries and teaching them about mine.

This time, I thought of watching Africa. South Africa and Nigeria are to countries most Indians know about. As RSA is mixed with white ethnics and Indians a lot, I came here instead.
I know that you guys got elections soon and wanted to learn about Bihari and Atiku from you guys.

But most on this forum don't hold much of logics or info. Seems like from threads I've watched at least. They don't know about economics specially. I can offer a much better discussion with a pool of information.

darfay:
Tell that to jumia having 90% of your mkt share and UBA, the fastest growing bank in Kenya

Look at the third screen shot just in case you decide to be foolish

darfay:
Ethiopia has the largest economy and military in East and Central Africa while Tz is the fastest growing economy in the region

jaycent:
Just as you're also stupid too? You haven't contributed anything in this thread, only by ranting? If I tell you to show me were you live now, you won't be able to show me? Because you live in a slum Nigeria is the poverty capital and yet still better than shitthol Kenya by Farr?

Iamleefact:
Dude,why are you incredibly b*tchy!

Increased expansion of Kenyan banks to the East African region is expected in the year which would possibly lead to increased performance, according to Oxford Business Group.

At the start of 2018, nine Kenyan lenders operated a total of 306 subsidiaries in EAC up from 297 a year earlier.

Equity Bank led in the region with 104 locations in five countries. Diamond Trust Bank (DTB) operated 70 branches in three countries, while KCB group had 60 branches in five member states.

According to the report, this was pushed by Nairobi’s status as an advanced financial centre, helping some of larger banks establish a successful presence in regional markets.

Uganda still remained the home of highest number of branches, accounting for 102 locations, followed by Tanzania (81) and Rwanda (55).

“Of course the expansion trend will continue in 2019 due to interrogation for investment in the region,” Kenya Bankers Association chief executive Habil Olaka said.

Yobeezy:
Some people like Nowenuse used to sing about that vocabulary here

Yobeezy:
Those Nigerians who used to sing about we dominate did they go to dominate their ignorance elsewhere or?

Jonraid:
About time we ignore him.Let him burn in his jealousy!

NairobiWalker:
Kikuyu1, please come explain to this idiot something. He's embarrassed himself so hard I just don't feel like teaching him anything - we've lent them too many teachers anyway. You can't blame me.

See how the idiot misunderstood you and can't even get it right no matter how much I lead him to. Who teaches these people?
