Then why is MTN and DSTV still in Nigeria making it big? When the Government penalized them why didn't they just pack up?

Shma:


I can't agree more. Nigeria is a failed state. All investors are now moving to kenya.

Do you know what a failed state is? Some of you guys just use phrases for fun.

otherwise by the same definition all Black Americans are African.

He is biracial and brought up by his white side of the family. White America saw itself in him, that's why they supported him. All else is story.

What is the percentage of tech inflows coming to Nigeria compared to Kenya or South Africa?

Nigeria attracts more tech investment, of course it would experience more losses.

Most business ideas fail. It's the same in tech.

It doesn't change the fact that Nigeria is the tech hub of the continent and will remain so for the forseeable Future.

Even this year, Nigeria is going to attract more tech investments than both South Africa and Kenya.

You don't know little Indians. They argue blindly with so much air as to try to wear you down especially when they know they are saying rubbish.
How anyone sane can compare Nigeria's tech space with Kenya's tech space is laughable.

Their useless ihub is already owned by Nigeria's cchub. Is that not enough reason for them to argue about something else? Animalistic skeletons.

Kenya is a step ahead of you. We're already doing tech city - 90% of horizontal infrastructure, done.

Konza (Konza Technopolis ) is a key flagship project of Kenya’s Vision 2030 economic development portfolio. Konza will be a world-class city, powered by a thriving information, communications and technology (ICT) sector, superior reliable infrastructure and business friendly governance systems..

Unfortunately for you, whatever you think you are building is irrelevant to the rest of us.

The real tech city will happen in Nigeria.

Tanzania is not diversified. You should join other 'gold economies' in West Africa and create a proper Zoopublic. You share everything in common...

Just because he's black doesn't make him Kenyan he has Kenyan heritage, and that's pretty much it. He ain't Kenyan though!

It's nothing personal but we have relegated food discussions to the bin. Try another topic or better yet go line up in Abuja for a South African passport like everyone else. Dimwit!

wailing is allowed , any way, check out the update on Lagos light rail system(blue and red lines) , the rail system is integrated with BRT and ferry system and all are to be completed this year and when completed , it will be the most integrated transport system in Africa.

Ok, The introduction of Lagos Integrated Rail Transport System will reduce considerably, the amount of traffic on the road at any given time, thereby reducing drastically the constant traffic congestion on the roads because they are very convenient and comfortable to travel on. Since they are cheaper than regular commercial buses, taxis or driving a private car, people naturally would prefer to travel in them. They are also faster than other forms of road transportation. This would be a welcome relief to those with car, LRT has an exclusive right of way hence the issue of traffic congestion is completely ruled out. Since it’s six times faster than the automobile or regular commercial bus, passengers would reach their destination and back in little or no time.
For instance, Lagos BRT system Ikorodu and Mile 12 have Some positive impacts

Preach.

Don’t be stupid.from negative zero in 2020 to $77 in 2022. That is soaring higher olodo hood rat.

Dumbo, what are you're talking about is not economics. These are basic information that a grade 2 can google and paste here.

For starters, you should be able to tell the difference between macro & microeconomics and decompound data appropriately. Those are fundamentals of the basic economy, dimwit.

No it is geography.
You are too stupid and olodo to be associated with.so you knew that info yet you said china is developed.Again stay off economics,you just contradicted yourself again. The more you try to impress me,the dumber you sound.

Boss, konza can never be completed, Konza were announced on June 10, 2008, as part of Vision 2030 and nothing tangible has been recorded, Nigeria's recently embarked new city tagged "Alaro city" has more infrastructures and building than Konza and Tatu cities combined
here is an extract from one Kenya's best writer and reporter

1 JUNE 2021 • NAIROBI, KENYA
". On either side of the road, a cacophony of ranches, mile after mile. Most of these are white-owned or formerly white-owned, the hinterland of an enduring colonial presence. Cows graze forlornly in the distance. I miss the turn to Konza, as there is nothing to suggest a city here. Only once I’ve driven past it do I recognize the complex where the Konza Technopolis Development Authority (KoTDA) is located. It is the only building for kilometers around taller than one story .

At the main gate, there are security measures: a look into the car, a mysterious mirror thrust aggressively underneath its chassis, a demand for identification, and the temperature checks and dabs of sanitizer that have become a permanent part of security ritual. Then I drive up to the KoTDA headquarters. All around are workers in hard hats, trucks filled with sand, excavators, and the other normal detritus of construction sites. This is the headquarters of the so-called Silicon Savannah By the looks of the Konza Technopolis Development Authority, there’s little to indicate that 13 years have gone by since the launch of what was first trumpeted by the Kenyan government in 2008 as being the future “best-planned” city in Africa. With promises of mass job creation and investors “trooping in,” Konza City’s
groundbreaking was meant to be a source of national pride and a marker of progress — a sign that Kenya was on the cutting edge of global tech. "
