You are a confuse kid. All the countries you are trying to compare Kenya to, spend more per child in both education and health. Hence why SA, Ghana and Nigeria have more productivity than Kenya.
Resources is not what makes a person productive, it's the grooming and the available opportunities.
This explains why Kenyans are so poor despite a huge arable land that remain fallow because kenyans are not smart enough to acquire irrigation technologies.
Despite all the natural resource in Kenya, the country cannot even afford to carry out geological surveys.
Kenya does not invest in it human capital and that is why the country lack critical experts needed to run it.
Its like talking to a tree even asking but WTF does that even mean!?
rvp2018: The Global Educational ranking that placed Ghana at the bottom of 76 nations in Science and Mathematics, was based on a 2011 Data, Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, Education Minister said on Tuesday.Other countries in the lowest ranks together with Ghana were Oman, Morocco, Honduras, and South Africa which were ranked 72, 73, 74 and 75 respectively.
Youre worse than South Africa...worst ever...in TIMSS.
The real pity of this pathological denial and professional autism is these guys will never realise how fkd they are! Look at this:
Ghana ranked last in global school ranking KOJO EMMANUEL May 13, 2015 10:37 AM
The biggest global school rankings have been published, with Ghana and other African countries at the bottom.
Rmbr,on ToT we saw their kindergarten (mis)education. Imagine the net GDP gain if their kids had basic skills!
Our kids have basic skills and knowledge and they are groomed well to spot the opportunities in society and use their skills to create sunshine and brighten their corner.
That's why Ghanaians are less poor and own marvelous properties.
The terrible educational standards in kenya is the reason for kenya poverty and slum dwelling. Basically kenyans can't think beyond their nose and tongue.
We really can't tell how far lower they could go . I think their score was 320 or lower - while countries in OECD and likes of China - do about twice that.
The average ghanian kid is just as dumbo as our friend here.
Are all kenyans as dumb as you? No wonder kenya is a shambolic shiithole in China’s pocket I hope your starving mudder fuggerz are being fed, f00l Fuckeduppedness

rvp2018: You personify an oxymoron - I would have called you a slowpoke but here you're a rare specimen. Togo and Ghana are on the same plank and south africa...under performing. The methodology is solid.. HCI..is based on solid emperical data...maybe they are few outliers..but generally it cannot help Nigeria at the bottom of any index out there.
What will help Nigeria is facing her's problem head on. The myriad of problems.
Kenya we keep telling you is very progressive country - a country that is largely semi-arid and barely any minerals or natural resources - and yet does better by African standards - and is clearly a regional north star - is to be admired.
If you were not so obtuse - you'd have realized - that kenya without 2 million barrels a day of Oil like NIgeria or Gold like Ghana or arable land - is able to achieve this thanks to it's investment in HCI.
And it no doubt not only World Bank - but many others have noticed - Kenya very impressive HCI scores. For how else would you explain Kenya impressive progress ? No natural resources? Human resource.
Kenya high quality of education and it's outcomes have been praised and recognised long before WB thought about HCI index. Heck Airtel/Zain had to cancel their African show coz kenya teams won nearly everything from quarters.....except for a fluke by Ibandan in one year.
To get a sense of Kenya’s historical overperformance, consider the 2007 results of standardised tests for sixth graders conducted by the Southern and East African Consortium for Monitoring Educational Quality. Kenya’s average score was 557 points. That’s well above South Africa’s average of 495 points. Kenyan children’s basic literacy and numeracy skills were stronger than South Africa’s.
Oga, go and sit down. You don't know the meaning of Oxymoron. Stop saying rubbish like the idiot you are. A person can't be an oxymoron. Even if a person personifies an oxymoron, how is that a bad thing. Meanwhile an oxymoron is just a figure of speech, eg... Bitter Sweet.... and such.
Back to the issue- people no longer swallow line hook and sinker what the WB says. I know Togo very well and there's no way a study that places Togo and South Africa together as equals in terms of hci can go unquestioned. We are talking about South Africa and Togo, not South Africa and Kenya, but in your desperation you keep telling us what you are doing in Kenya. Why don't you tell us about Togo?
And you even went as far as equating Togo and Ghana. Well, that's between you and just30.

Classic oxymoron. WB didn't not just conjecture data...they have explained their methodology...and this based on empirical data. South Africa I keep telling you has a failed education and health care system. Of course it does have word class part to it ....but the majority of blacks...are emerging from schools...slightly better than Ghanians....and health-wise - HIV-AIDs has wrecked them.

Look at examples of oxymoron. You must learn by force.
Usage of Oxymoron in Speech or Writing Here are some examples of oxymoron that may be found in everyday writing or conversation: My sister and I had a friendly fight over the lipstick. I think the professor stated his unbiased opinion regarding the student response. You look awfully pretty in that coat. Sarah ate the whole piece of pie. The carpenters left the bench completely unfinished . The new kittens enjoyed being Alone together. True fiction is my favorite genre to read. It is considered a false truth that a broken mirror means bad luck. Joe considers himself to be a ladies’ man when he’s at a club. Jenny thinks of her garage as an organized mess
.Ghana,South Africa and Togo can not be mentioned in the same breath.
Exam moderation has nothing to do with changing the marking scheme or not. Go and learn more..... So tell me why Kenya was messing up with marking schemes.... was it that desperate to end mass failure?
Yeah let's stick to what the outcomes are
A better educational system will never have mass failures on the levels that exist in kenya. The Ghanaian educational system produce world class expertise in all field from nuclear science, to medicine onwards to engineering and tech.
Something that the kenyan educational system can't match
That puts WASSCE above KCSE the other useless one
Goodness! From Tot just recently.
rvp2018: HOLY COW - Ghana just experimenting with pre-school smiley smiley
The government has tested Ghana's children as they move on to elementary school and has found that the preschool boom is not fulfilling its promise. To cite just one statistic, among second-graders tested in city schools, one-third could not read a single word of a simple story. The results on basic arithmetic questions are similarly disappointing.
AUWEEEE! GOODNESS!? Listen you Ghanaians, it's NOTHING personal. I told you how ALL would be revealed with "forensic anthropology detail," didn't I?
Every evening after dinner, Herman Agbavor and his 5-year-old son, Herbert, have a ritual. Little Herbert climbs into his dad's lap, unzips his book bag and they go over his kindergarten homework.
The two of them have been doing some variation of this homework routine since Herbert was 1. That's when Agbavor first enrolled the boy in preschool.
They live in a working-class neighborhood of Ghana's capital city, Accra — in a cement block apartment in a multifamily house that has a television and lots of books but no indoor plumbing.
HTF DOES that even happen!? Anway we covered that Accra toilet issue earlier and unlike many I DON'T feel the need for obsessive looping of the same ISHYT.
A few minutes into their session on a recent evening, they get to a page with instructions to trace some rectangles. The boy falters.
"T-R-A-C-E," says Agbavor. "What does it spell?"
"Te?" offers Herbert in a small voice.
The little dude is a future forumer!
In short, when it comes to preschool in Ghana, "children are not actually getting anything from it," says Sharon Wolf, a professor of early childhood development at the University of Pennsylvania. "They are not actually learning.
It's even WORSE!
One way is by showing a picture and asking children to tell you what they see," she notes. For instance, a landscape with lots of animals. Then, you count the number of words the kids say as a way to gauge their vocabulary skills.
But when Wolf tried this common test with Ghana's preschoolers, "we would just get blank stares." If the tester pointed to a specific animal the child could name it. But when the kids were asked, just generally, what do you see, they were stuck. They did not know how to offer their own observations and opinions in answer to an open-ended question.
I admit I lolled. Haven't we REPEATEDLY seen this same low grade f'tardation? The inability to comprehend the obvious? Near autistic level cognitive difficulty? I'm happy ALL our presidents were serious about learning. I even praised much maligned Moi for the 8-4-4 system.
Great news by all standard. We are turning the tides. It’s doesn’t have to be the advanced nation choking our growing market with their product giving no room for industrialization and exportation.let’s also flood their market..
Dangote Group has concluded plans to begin the export of its first shipment of fertilizer from its new fertilizer plant at the Lekki Free Zone in Lagos, to the US and Brazil.
Initial shipment from one of the world’s biggest fertilizer plant, which has the capacity to produce 3 million tonnes of urea and ammonia per year, is expected to start in late June or early July.
The billionaire chairman of Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, said this while speaking at a virtual economic forum hosted in Qatar on Tuesday, June 22, 2021, according to Reuters.
What the President of Dangote Group is saying Aliko Dangote said that the new fertilizer plant will export its first shipment in late June or early July, to Louisiana, while the majority of exports from the plant are expected to go to Brazil, adding that it will also be able to supply all the major markets in sub-Saharan Africa.
He said, “Apart from meeting the domestic demand, we are going to be able to earn quite a lot of money exporting the goods to the South American countries.”
A lot of Nigerians believe that the fertilizer plant will help solve the problem of low crop yield in the country, which is partly due to insufficient access to fertilizer.
What you should know
Mr Devakumar Edwin, Group Executive Director (Strategy, Capital Projects & Portfolio Development) of Dangote Industries Limited had about a week ago, said that the $2.5 billion fertilizer plant, which recently commenced operations can produce enough for local demand as it looks towards exports. He said that the plant currently delivers 120 trucks locally
Are you counting yourself among the human beings? You keep mentioning arse which only shows how the Baboon Syndrome has afflicted yours.
Have you not noticed how everyone else ignores you here? You are worse than a baboon. Henceforth, I ignore you like everyone else does. That's the best way to treat nonentities like you.

Wow, Nigeria exporting fertilizer to USA. How sweet.
Samrobo,Where do you get your stats. The Abuja road I am seeing 3 lanes plus two service lanes mostly. That Thika highway from Ruiru to Thika. Otherwise the parts of thika superhighway is mostly 4 lanes plus two service lanes - 12 lanes.
