Nigeria like kenya has two level of gov. Nigeria is federal (36 states) and Kenya's is devolved(47 counties). Nigeria and Kenya allocate part of the budge to states or counties. Total Nigeria federal budget I have seen 25-30B usd. kenya national budget this year is nearly 25B usd. All n=Bigeria states combine will have 18B usd budget (N5.7 trillion).Nearly half of that will come from federal gov(N2.8 trillion)...so roughly speaking 30 +18- 9= 40B is the combined federal+states budget in Nigeria. Kenya counties receive about 3.5B usd and raise about the same...so it the same 25+7-3.5=28B usd. So technically speaking kenya(28b) and nigeria (40b) is small difference in the amount of money to spent every year despite oil and population difference. And you know the reason why - kenya collect it taxes so good - it nearly getting into leagues of south Africa. Kenya efficient revenue collection of 14B is nearly 20% of it's gdp. Nigeria and other banana republic of africa are 10-12% (Gdp to tax ration) when they really try. iblawi: 3 Likes |

Actually Nigeria phoney economy is the worse in Gdp to tax in Africa. It collect 6% of it's GDP. Fake gdp. Kenya collect 20% of it's Gdp. Now wonder there is no development - nobody get taxed - they are just waiting for oil dollars. That 6% is entirely from oil. Is there even tax revenue authority down there? And what does it do? How are you gonna develop without taxes? 180M all waiting for oil!! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_tax_revenue_as_percentage_of_GDP 6 Likes |

ProudlyKenyan: Guy stop posting rubbish. Speak for Kenya not Nigeria because you know nothing. Nigeria operate 3 levels of government. Federal allocation to state is not in anyway related to federal budget. Dummy go and learn more and stop speaking of what you don't know. Lagos and akwa Ibom have always had about 3-5 billion budget each you dummy. Nigerian budget is not what you can say anything about because you know nothing about it. In 2014 alone government generated over $30 billion from tax. http://nigeriantimes.ng/news/firs-generates-n4-69trn-revenue-in-2014/ 2014 exchange rate was 150 to a dollar. You don't know anything about Nigeria. Please stop all this rubbish. |

You can't make up for lack of facts using insults. Talk now. This year FIRS is projecting to collect 5trillion naira - which when i convert to dollars is 15 b usd - just about equal with what KRA is projecting to collect. And I didn't even use the real usd exchange rate. ![]() Nigeria collects 6% of it's phoney GDP. Those are facts. Money allocate to states has to be part of Federal Budget. Unless nigeria has invented another budgetting process that is novel.

what is your point oga?. We can only talk about it in dollars terms so we can compare it. 5 trillion Naira is 15B usd. KRA is projecting to collected Kshs1.45 trillion which in dollars is 15B usd . And 63% of IFRS is from Oil. Nigeria basically either has no economy worth generating taxes or the gdp data is phoney. I knew that re-based GDP was fake....the moment i saw it.

I've observed that Kenyans have been fabricating story and even using Wikipedia as a source. It so unfortunate that Kenyans are dull. I might start uploading bad news from Kenya too if Kenyans can not explicitly state why Kenya is a better country. I know how to attack too and I promise I will hit you hard with you own news. We all know Kenya and bad news are like bread and butter. |

ProudlyKenyan: When it comes to building world class Multinational companies with world class brands, Kenyan owned companies are still miles behind Nigerians companies. I mean they are local champions but I wish they move beyond Kenya and East Africa to other continents. If I am wrong please list 20 multinationals established by Kenyans and world reputable brands owned by Kenyans. Just 20. With branches outside Kenya and East Africa.

Kenya shs also took a beating from kshs 63 to dollar to 100shs now - of course kenya economic fundamentals are not shaky and oil dependant - so our currency basically held up- against USd rally. You can bring all your naira money and exchange it freely in kenya forex market. Let talk about 2016. Even if we go back t0 2012 - kenya will still beat your naija arse. I am even being fair - because if we use the black market dollar rate -not the propped up - then it going to be a massacre. GDP is not something you can hide. Which is why pictures from Nigeria are showing why those GDP figures are not believable. Your mighty army of 130,000 is running on what budget again...0.9B usd. When are you going to devalue Naira ![]() Naija gov like most of it's people are scam artist. I won't trust it. Bring the pictures that are half as dope as Kenya. iblawi: 4 Likes |

How do you plan to build the world class infrastructure (roads, railways, ports, power stations) and pay for decent salaries like south africa or egypt if you don't pay taxes - and all of your are just sitting there waiting for petrodollars - which is mere 9-10B usd per annum. Safaricom alone pay taxes amount to nearly 500M usd - and here is 180-200m country all watching the price of oil like a life -n-death issues. You cannot be serious. iblawi: 1 Like |

Kenya companies have been the source of FDI for most of central and eastern countries. You only have Dangote(not in kenya) and Big Banks (after forced merger) -a few bought some dying banks in kenya and now running losses. Kenya's KQ is flying to Nigeria and helping fly all these banana nations without national airlines for starters. Kenya doesn't have oil - but kenya company like KENOL or HASS - is running downstream oil business (petrol stations) from Zimbwabwa, Zambia, Malawi,TZ, Rwanda, Uganda, South Sudan and Congo. Kenya without oil has cornered the supply chain of oil. Nigeria with all the oil have oil shortages where people queue for oil - never happened in kenya ![]() kenya retail giant Nakumatt/Tusky - ran the show in most of those countries. Keya banks and insurance companies - ran the show in most of those countries. I can give you so many examples. Brookside is example of kenya's vibrant diary sector (now better than south africa)- in kenya where you see oil tankers - you see fresh milk tankers - not milk powder. No Nigeria or South Africa company can withstand the brutal competition in the free market economy that is kenya's fully liberalized free market economy. iblawi: 3 Likes |
