So 45% must live in squalor such sandy dusty houses?

Maybe if you spend more time on serious stuff 1) you wont have sold millions for clothes 2) you wont be running off generators. What is in a piece of clothing?

We are discussing serious stuff 1) 2-3B dollar investment on Ethiopia virgin telcom sector 2) Possibility of opening up of their financial sector.

it's cultural for people not to live in better dwelling places?
It's cultural for people to sit on dusty sandy bare earth to eat, chat and sleep?

Anyway

What wrong with Africa hut or Maasai Manyatta. Cow urine eradicate jiggers . These very cultured people. In place like Turkana or NEP - they dont even need to build anything; they can get a tent ; it too hot

Maasai construct mud roofed house; mud walled; they never have jiggers or anything; they dont need ACS or fans despite living in semi-arid areas; they dont need blankets at night;

Very ecological dwelling if you get over the cow urine smell that they apply to keep flies and fleas out.

building a hut does not mean you should have that many and they should sleep in dust and sand....

Atleast they should have modernized their huts to have good flooring.

It is a deprive way of living and to have as many as 45% of houses like that, is depressing.

Africa grabs 3.5 Billion dollars venture capital in first 6 months of this year. Nigeria, Kenya, Egypt, South Africa, Ghana all at the very top of it in that order.

Mzee, don't be too hard on these guys. Rmbr they're a product of generations of such terrible miseducation they'd have been better off totally illiterate!

Couple Safaricoms move with KCB & Equity bank entry and a game changing socioeconomic/political move is underway.
Any reasonably intelligent human can comprehend not just enormous economic spin offs but also soft power benefits from this move.

the use of a country's cultural and economic influence to persuade other countries to do something, rather than the use of military power:
When it comes to soft power, Germany is now one of the most powerful nations on earth.

Once you stop wearing that unmodern clothing the Maasai will also wear British suits, live in modern British houses, eat modern British Breakfast and retire to modern British beds.

For now - they have chosen on their free will - to live that way. So have many kenyans. Others of course live in slums - but some have chosen to live in those mud houses.

Maasai for example have so many cattle - they can sell three bulls - and build a modern house - but they dont.

Yes, Safaricom with M-pesa, hopeflly KCB and Equity full entry, then Moyale road - we all set; This could have serious multiplier effect; Ethiopia is virgin market of 110M people emerging from communism.

so many cattles yet they're still this poor?

Haven't adapted to a better way of building such that 45% of Kenyans live like they are in 1912…

What happened to improving ?

I have seen better properties in the northernmost part of Ghana where temperatures can hit 45 degree Celsius without AC and fan but remains very cool and they have floors with ceilings.

gallivant:
Nairobi City

Upon the editing, it still looks ugly

What exactly is wrong with Maasai housing? Maasai dont have jiggers, they are lean, and etc.
They take their kids to school.
They live their own peaceful live.

Just40 and other Ghanians - Can you tell Kwarteng in Twi language to go slow - in revenging the Golden Stool 76Billion dollar scandal. He is literally crashing the British economy.

the fact that 45% of your population live like that is what is wrong.

Living like refugee in your own country is sad

He's not the one crashing the British economy... The Brits played a dirty geopolitical game and they lost badly and now economic pressure from every corner is bitting them badly.

You don't bit the hand that feeds you... #Russian money run the UK.

Kwarteng's intervention is brilliant, it is meant to slow down what is happening but he has no control over many of the factors.

Playing a dirty game in favour of Charles Schwab WEF against your own economic interest was stupid.

Everyone saw this coming

@vankelvin

I'm sure you're happy with what the Weija Dam authority have done to the people of Weija Tetegu because I am very happy.

This time round they had no mercy on them.

I'm happy because well to do people who can put up such mansions like them should have no business fighting tooth and nail in court to build in the spillway of a dam narrowing the flood plain of the river.

How is Feb 2022 old news. NNP has never made profit in its existence. They recently cooked books but cant remit any dividend. Repairing old things - is part of expenses - you can't declare profit with leaking pipes. Fix the pipes first. That is why to this day NNPC the biggest Nigeria company has never paid dividend to it's owner - Nigeria gov and people - in history.

Get a grip of yourself. NNPC has been making profit since 2019. I wish I could say the same of your pipeline or that flying coffin you keep floating as a venture.
