Am also waiting for your response,for once without hiding behind Little In....s! Btw,even though this question is most likely a complete waste of time,why did you keep that up when you have 2.5x our own pop. plus yours are non citizens?

obaaderemi:
No you are wrong again,brother. Do you need me to show you proofs of how cement consumption in Kenya keeps dropping in a worrisome way? As to the Little Indian shiit, they may be many in Nigeria but not as influential as they are in Kenya. You know why?Nigerians from the middle ages have been more ingenious than Kenyans. Study our history before colonialism and you will understand. So our businessmen are bigger than the Indian businessmen in our midst. I will give you an example, the British controlled much of the information opened to Nigerians during colonialism through their media but in 1874 we established Nigeria's first newspaper and by 1959 established Africa's first TV station. I will give you another example: Nigeria's first bank was established in 1896 by a British businessman but but 1929 a Yoruba woman established Nigeria's first indigenous banks to challenge the foreigners. Read about king jaja of Opobo. Nigerian businessmen are just big from time immemorial. Many of Nigeria's Indians are Nigerian citizens, I went to primary and secondary school with many of them in Ibadan. So I am probably more exposed to Indians than you are . But fact is there is no way they can ever be as influential as they are in Kenya. I can give you many examples. This thread could have been used to learn a great deal about both countries but since we feel it should instead be used as a tool for insults, what can I say?

Deflection. He figured if he repeated little Indians long enough it may become true or he simply hates Indians. Whichever the case it exposes a deep rooted psychological issue.

There is no doubt that Nigeria is ahead of kenya in Nollywood/Music/Fashion.I was willing to grant Nigeria two more things - Banking & Cement Industry - but I think on both counts - you are regressing so baldy and Kenya is certainly ahead in banking & is catching up in cement industry. That leave Nigeria's Nollywood & Music are few things kenya can copy from Nigeria.

rvp2018:
They are regressing - I think at some point they were at highs of 40M metric tonnes production - now it's down to 20M metric tonnes - with consumption at 18M metric tonnes. If the trend continues - they'll soon be at 10M metric tonnes - despite their urbanisation levels nearly twice kenya.

A mindset that believes, the Indians Chinese and Europeans are super humans
thats what they have

chrisooblog:


i follow this thread off and on i still insist this thread is tantamount to saying my broken down jalopy is better than yours. we are wasting time insulting ourselves because there are many challenges bedevilling our two countries to engage in debates that nobody is going to win. kenya is great and better in some aspects likewise nigeria is awesome and trumps kenya in certain respects. we need to collaborate and improve each in areas we are lacking. in asia you won't find chinese, japanese or koreans engaging in silly childish arguments.

i would employ all of us to use our smarts and time for more meaningful pursuits.

i dream of a developed africa that is peaceful, cultural and respectful to all people and their rights. God bless Nigeria Kenya Ghana Ethiopia South Africa whole of Mother and Humanity as a whole

I read a news last night about senior NYSC member who was murdered by cops because she drove past their check point around 3 am without stopping. A bullet hit her midriff. She bled to death at Garki Hospital in Abuja because the hospital refused to treat her without a poice report (past 3 am in the morning), with the same police officers demanding N50,000 (past 3 am in the morning) for the police report.

This is e apologizing for ever saying Nigeria is a better country than Kenya. Honestly I cried a bit last night and this morning, I feel so so so so so so so so sad. This lady did absolutely nothing wrong but she died anyway. I blame the hospital, the cops and every gaddman person in that GOD forsaken country!

Obaaderemi please let us face facts, Nigeria is not going anywhere, it'll take another civil war to even get to the level where Kenya is today. I can't remember the last time Kenyan cops shot at civilians for driving past their checkpoint. Nigeria is nation of f00ls, animals disguised as human beings, if Nigeria is such a wonderful place to be, why are our people leaving in droves?

obaaderemi:
Did you follow the trend of the discussion or you just felt like supporting that idiot because of your hatred for Nigeria? I was proving to the other one,kikuyu1 that Indians are not as influential in Nigeria and by extension the whole of west Africa as they are in east Africa and especially Kenya. Why?Because Nigerian businessmen can hold their own against the Indian businessmen. But he had no answer to why the Indians dominate Kenyan business other to start saying Indians are also many in Nigeria. So now you see it is the Kenyans who have admitted Indian domination and also see that as better than Kenyans.

Obaaderemi did you see the news of the lawyer who was assaulted by SARS officers called on him by his own boss (who also happens to be a lawyer). If a lawyer (one who is meant to defend people's rights), one with years of experience can use the police to illegally assault a former employee over unpaid stipends, what good could possibly come out of Nigeria?

Honestly TayserMahiri, I take back everything I said, Nigeria is the number 1 shyt hole on the planet. End of Story.

And here I thought the FCT is the best run state in Naija. That was sad. But you notice that every country/state/city has its bad elements, the difference is the degree. Hopefully there is an uproar. Africans must learn to hold people to account, they must understand that wrong things wont go unpunished. Kenya also has its issues with the KNH for instance (the wrong surgeries, sexual assaults etc). But I think we go to great lengths to address such issues so that the culture of responsibility is slowly inculcated. The only exception is corruption where I think without the recent interventions by the authorities we were going to beat you very soon (your own game). There are other smaller issues that bedevil societies that sometimes is hard to know whether its unique to us or is everywhere. Just today I parked my car next to the highway near one of those kibandaskis a few meters past The Hub, Karen then this lady comes up to my window and asks me in heavily accented English what I need (I could tell shes kyuk from the accent lol). So I asked her why she speaks to me in English and she tells me so matter of factly that I dont look like speaking swahili. I asked her how do swahili speakers look like? Then she tells me she just knows from looking at me. I was a little confused, but something ran across my mind. We are very (insert any word here that means along the lines of class-ish). Anyway, we didnt talk much but I spoke to her in swahili (sheng actually) as I ordered some take away choma. Im not sure I think she felt embarrassed, delighted, surprised, all or indifferent.

Maybe this is the issue you have been talking about all along. We as a society are very classish (mentally). People want to look at you and decide how to deal with you from the word go.

dickhole I am a Yoruba man.

Just gtfoh, follow the thread and you'll see I have been Nigeria's number one defender but after what happened to the Corp member yesterday, I am officially done defending this country, keep deceiving yourselves.

Who cares - about the colour or race of a person - except an idiot like you. If a nigerian came to kenya and started business there - Kenya economy win. One minute you're talking FDI - the next minute you're dicing the economy into tribal nonsense. Personally I wish Kenyan had more and more indians investors, tourists & proffesional. Look at Rwanda - a small country that is progressive - welcoming everyone - including those Nigerians trying to reach europe in leaking boats. That is how I wish kenyan can become - a progressive country that welcome investors. China become big - when it invited foreigners to come over and take advantage of their population. Indians and Whites in Kenya enjoyed historical advantage in nearly all facets of life - but black kenyans (if it matters) have progressively gotten better - just like Kenyan Indians have - and I am glad our gov made Indians one of our tribes.

The kind of retrogressive nonsense some of you post here belong to stone age. The more the economy is diverse - the better for everyone. How would that Yoruba woman know about banking - if it wasn't for the Briton. If kenya is more ethnically or racially diverse - it something to celebrate!

rvp2018:
Absolutely right. Class thing is british inheritance. The British are just slightly better than Indian in having a caste system. Brit will judge another brit based on accent - not accomplishment or personality like say an American. For the Brits you either have pedigree or you don't. You either went to Eton or didn't. This more like India. The Brit systems historically was regimented - into classes - and that still persists. That is why most urbane Kenyans will instinctively think lowly of Nigerians when they start talking their bad pidgin English and horrible elucidation.
