So what's behind it?

Ruto gov. Brilliant interventions. Sound macro-economic management. Dismantling of cartels that had started to cause market dysfunction like Nigeria Dangoteland. The cartels engage in price fixing - and are in almost every sector - Ruto gov has made it priority to finish them all business cartels - so market forces can work - supply and demand forces ultimately should lead to fair prices.

And of course resumption of rain - after 5yrs of drought - we now going into 5yrs of rainfall - meaning more food - more hydro power - more water supply.

Some of Ruto brilliant interventions.
1) Nailing 4.5B dollar oil import deal with Saudis and UAE to supply fuel for 9 months on credit easing pressure of forex.
2) Allowing duty free import of maize, rice, wheat and et.
3) Revamping moribund Kenya gov trading arm - that use to engage in wholesaling and retail -- KNTC to distribute duty-free food items through 500,000 retail shops across Kenya.Trade CS estimates a 30% decrease in cost of cooking oil, beans, sugar, rice, and maize under duty-free import scheme via KNTC.

And all these achieved after removing ALL SUBSIDIES.

Cartels that have been dismantled range from banks, cooking oil companies, milk, name them. Those who use not pay taxes - are getting hit very hard. The ground is being level. Market failures being sorted.

What’s with the color combo this guy is always using?

In meantime Nigeria inflation is down to
1) Printing of Naira - 50B dollars - by CBN at behest of Buhari.
2) Dangote and few mostly Northern elite cartels who have captured Abuja and Nigeria key sectors through sweetheart import restriction, collusion, forex and other market failures.
3) Decayed or total collapse of basic infrastructure - difficult business environment - no electricity - crazy traffic jams - port where containers takes a month to snake it way out

This despite Nigerian as individuals being very enterprising and creative.

Solution.
1) Fix macro-economics.
2) Fix Dangote like cartels. In Kenya we call them dynasties - rich and powerful political & business elite who conspire to enrich themselves at expense of others - erect barriers in sectors - gain unfair advantage - then force everyone to buy their cement or beer or juice or medicine or milk expensively.
3) Fix infrastructure to reduce cost of doing business.

The rest Nigeria creative, hardworking and enterprising people will do. If it was South Africa - where blacks are totally incapable for historical reasons - having been broken by the Boer - it would be hopeless situation.

But good thing - Nigerians as a people are very enteprising and hardworking like Kenyans - unlike Lazy Tanzanians, Indolent Ghanian and the hopeless South Africans blacks who has been emasculated by Boer after 200yrs of enslavesment like Black Americans.

Confession time

I don't see the hardworking kenyans
But lazy tanzanians are feeding the world

Mmmmh
Confessions and more confessions

NO my friend. Look for proper experts like me to help you. Not random idiots on twitter - who like you think building stuff will magically lead to economic revolution.

Kenya is at the cusp of economic takeoff - following the footprints of India, Bangladesh and Veitnam.

In 5yrs from now it will happen. The foundation has been set - the hardwork done - what remain is vroooooooooooom from 2030.

If you're still far from controlling your population growth - FORGET ABOUT IT. That is 1st. 2nd is education. Third is electricity. Those are the basics.

Idiot
Do u think development has a formula?

Do u know the fertility rate of Botswana, Namibia and south Africa?
Are they taking off?

They are all middle class or upper middle class.
Kenya would be very happy to be there.
Their biggest headache is how to move from middle class to high income or developed country.
That is where jobs are plentifully, people are happier, quality of life highest.
Tanzania you need to move from LDC
Kenya at 2000USD need to double its gdp per capita to get to South Africa/Nam/Botswana level.
That should happen shortly.
Then hardest part start - how to avoid middle class trap - like South Africa has found themselves in.
Where you're neither developed or developing.

Why are u mixing stories?
Taking off is when a country moves to a higher income category.
That is what happened to Singapore, south Korea,Taiwan,etc
But stacking in the middle income is what Botswana,Namibia and SA are,but they have a low fertility rate

No taking off is what is happening in Veitnam, India and Bangladesh.
And what happened in China.
China is yet to be developed country.
It is when you accelerate or rapidly growly.
You just dont want to end up like South africa - where you take-off doesnt hit 40K feet above ground - but somewhere 10K feet
At 10k feet - you will soon hit Mt Kilimanjaros.
You want to be at 40K feet above ground - engage the autopilot - and let the economy fly itself.

So take-off like in a plane is the most difficult part - then you rapidly gain altitude or height - and soon you're at 40k - auto-pilot on.

Kenyans...
How long will u keep on starving? How long will this madness go on and on?
Now I know why rvp is busy calling Tanzanians lazy, it's a defensive mechanism to hide the real laziness and hunger faced by Kenyans.

A Kenyan lady have reached a point of nearly killing a honest man for a meal? Is this how hardworking Kenyans are?

Intervening in real market forces. It won't solve your problems

Miraa or Khat should be banned in Kenya like it is in Tanzania.

These stories are called - stori za Jaba.

Miraa is codeine like drug - that makes consumers - conjure crazy stories.

GOv job is to regulate market to prevent market failures. Nigeria is good case study where cement by Dangotes and few crooks is more expensive than if it was imported or rice.

Dangote is a crook who captures the market by first lowering prices to kill competition - then after they are out - he jack up the prices - as he is now almost a monopoly. Sometimes if they are one or two players - they can meet over coffee - and decide that tomorrow we sell cement at 20 dollars a bag - and it shall be done.

Dangote become extremely rich - Nigerians extremely poor.

Something like Kenya Anti Competition Authority is needed in Nigeria.

Yes... Using policies but not to physically stop market forces.

Ghana did this in the 80s, it doesn't work . It is also against ITO practices.

Those rapid growth are meant to take a nation into a higher income category which is a developed status.You don't take off and hit a mountain as u said.Taking off as u see India and Vietnam is what will move them to a developed world.Both are in middle income, so if they take off,definitely they are moving into another world.

The same way goes to a plane.It take off to another atmosphere where all clouds are below and everything becomes new. If webelieve your story of tasking off and remain where u are (middle income ),then that is not a real take off

Market failures need tough action - not just policies - heavy punitive fines - etc. Gov also can go into private business if private sectors are colluding. To fix market failures - require strong leadership that is not conflicted - to eliminate monopolies, oligopolistic tendencies, collusions, state capture and such.

Before you realize, there's shortage everywhere because of hoarding. Economics 101 will correct the mistake and in the end, you achieved nothing

More Miraa stories - be careful. Those miraa or Khat twigs has creative juices.

Pure capitalism will never work. Pure communism. Pure socialism. Modern gov has aspect of all of them. Gov runs more as communism/socialiasm. Private sector run as capitalism. Gov is regulator to ensure the evils of capitalism are reduced. Otherwise it become the survial for the fittest.

You fail when you run private sector as communism/socialism as the profit motive dissappears (hardwork pays) - laziness & jealousy like Ghana and Tanzania sets in.
