The Ethiopian census is out later this year. It will be interesting to see how much the population has grown since the last census.

Somali solidarity has been absent since the civil war, it would be nice to see a united front at least once in my life time.

Bro, I don't think you will be so lucky. Somalia has work to do

Swahili natives are a minority tribe. All of them should be around 6 million. They are divided into five dialects and stretch from Tanzanian coast to Kenya to Somalia (Bajunis))

The Bajuni are split between Kenya and Somalia. They have some Somali blood so some of them look Somali. Thery also have alot of Arabic admixture. I think they get along just fine. Theory are mostly Muslim.

Ok, what about the counties?

Can you pls help me list the 46 Kenyan counties and the dominant indigenous ethnic group of each county?

Taysermahiri, u can also help out here pls

But you emphasize how those around Nigeria like Niger are failed nations lol.

Niger is not a failed nation politically.

She is just a very very poor nation where you can hardly find any civilization outside the country's capital.

Somalis make up about 6 % of Kenya's population. I think they relate well being mostly muslims but their cultures are very different. Besides, they don't live in the same counties. Swahilis occupy about 4 or 5 counties on the KEnyan coast.

I see. Thanks.

Ok. Do these swahilis feature in Kenyan entertainment industry?
Their women are beautiful, but seem too conservative.

In Nigeria, most of the very educated core-northern muslims are very liberal. Their ladies even agree to date christian guys (but marriage is very difficult).

Does this happen in Kenya btw the muslims and christians?

They feature in many movies but the movies are mainly in Swahili and consumed mainly at the Coast and Tanzania. The Nairobi movie industry is more English.
Swahilis have no issue with marrying Christians. They are very liberal. Its actually the christians (kenya being majority christian) that are apprehensive of marrying muslims.

Kenya would still go in. There is a clause in the UN charter that allows nations to go into other nations in 'hot pursuit' of dangerous elements. That is what Kenya used and the UN could not stop it.

It must be in political agreement with the other nation.

Keep comparing yourself with a country that is obviously far ahead of you.

While Ethiopia and tanzania are sweeping your economy rug from under you.

Listen to what one of your own paul Mwangi has to say.

"The reality is that gone are the days when we were the “island of peace” in an unpredictable and violent part of the world. Over time, the world around us has changed, but we are yet to wake up and smell the coffee. Ethiopia is no longer in civil war and is quickly becoming a better investment opportunity for manufacturers both due to the low price of its electricity and the size of its population, about 90 million people. It is one of the fastest-growing economies in the world.
Tanzania is no longer socialist and is now the darling of America. Apart from its own vast mineral, oil and gas deposits, Tanzania is the new gateway to the DRC and is receiving mammoth investment from both China and America. China is building what is being called a “mega port” for Tanzania at Bagamoyo, which is more than 30 times the size of Mombasa, as part of a $10 billion investment package for Tanzania. When completed, it is bound to take away all central Africa business from Mombasa port, which will be left to serve only Kenya and Uganda.
……. Let us stop comparing ourselves with other countries."
Ethiopia, yes. Their Gdp may surpass Kenya, probably this year. But Tanzania? Naaaah. Not very likely, at least not soon.

However, Ethiopia has a very huge population, around 100mn now. They'll have a Gdp more or less equal with that of Kenya, whose population of 45mln is less than half that of Ethiopia, meaning Kenya will still be having a higher Gdp per capita than Ethiopia's.
Kenya' s economy will still remain the strongest, and most diversified in the region.

NairobiWalker:


It is the same thing buddy. What you keep talking of is absurd and that's the point I want you to see. Nigeria is Nigeria and you can't boast because the most developed part of Nigeria has a higher HDI than the whole of Kenya. The most developed part of any country is of course way more developed than many countries that are ahead of the said country development wise. If I was to select Muthaiga alone from Nairobi and compare it with the whole of New York city it would be ahead if NY in all economic indicators. Does that make Nairobi more developed than New York? Go figure.

Look.

Nigeria did not have the same political history as most countries in Africa.
Southern Nigeria was a different colonial entity from Northern Nigeria. They have been different political entities to a large extent.

If you want to say the most developed states or geo-political zone in Nigeria, fine, but not Southern Nigeria which was initially meant to be a country of it's own independent from Northern Nigeria, if not for an amalgamation/unification.

No, it's more of a cultural thing. A liberal vs radical thing.

Most yoruba muslims are liberal while most Hausa muslims are extremist.

Do you Know Kenya and the Kenyan coast were different administrative and political entities? The coast was a Sultanate under Oman that was added onto kenya after independence

Nowenuse... Who wants a united Nigerian Southerners or Northerners and why?.. Is Abuja Part of the north or South?

I'd say northerners need a united Nigeria more because the major export rescource of Nigeria lies in the South.
The south also owns the ports, without them, we will be landlocked.

I think they (Southerners) only need the northerners for agriculture. Northern Nigeria has so much potentials and minerals, but we are not harnessing that, our leaders all focus on southern crude oil rescource which has made us look like parasites to the south who have nothing to offer.

Abuja is at the centre of Nigeria geographically. But that area is classified politically as North (north-central).

That is where i am from. We were politically classified as northerners, but many of us prefer to be adress as middlebelt people (Central Nigeria).
