Look at what I found http://listsurge.com/top-10-countries-poor-sanitation-facilities/ 4. Nigeria (103 million) 4 Nigeria is one of the African countries where the word “sanitation” is non-existent. With over two-third of the total population with no sanitation facilities, Nigeria is horribly suffering from poverty, poor hygiene and lack of medical attention. Moreover, the government doesn’t prioritize sanitation even though the country is facing serious health related issues. In Nigeria, the need of clean water is understood but, it is not the case with sanitation as it is widely ignored. Due to gaps in sanitation infrastructures, the common population can only dream of simple facilities like toilets. Though many steps have been taken by the United Nations to improve the condition of Nigeria but, the results are not very encouraging. 3 Likes |

These Kenyans must think too highly of themselves to compare themselves with Nigeria. Nigeria with all her problems rn is still far ahead of Kenya. Someone dares question the reliability of Nigerian economic data? Feed on this article from Financial Times please. https://www.ft.com/content/4e5cd834-75ea-11e6-bf48-b372cdb1043a?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C2190726002 [b]I don't know why I have to educate these Kenyans on the meaning of the big figures that make the Nigerian economy so big. Like, check the telecom sector. That is a multi billion dollar industry that cannot be matched by Kenya in 20years. Foreign telcos as well as a Nigerian telco are doing well. Glo is the second biggest after MTN and we know MTN had the first start. Tourism. You think that ends with visiting parks and natural features? Their is business tourism. The number of high end hotels in Nigeria and their networth is far bigger than Kenyas. Yes Oil and gas is a major contributor to the big figures and this is almost completely lacking in Kenya. Yet you question the figures? The Nigerian Stock Exchange is the second most capitalized in dollar terms on the continent after South Africa. Nigerian banks have a bigger composite worth than their Kenyan counterpart. How many Kenyan banks sponsor multinational events on the continent? Yet you wonder why Nigeria is so big? Nollywood for the first contributed more than 1% of the GDP. By simple arithmetic, that makes it a multi billion dollar industry. Second to none on the continent. I saw some yapping about their ports being busier than Nigerian ports. The question is, what is the value of goods passing through these ports, not just the volume. Think about the number of cars alone for instance that are on Nigerian roads most of which were imported. The import is a cost and Nigerians effectively pay for these vehicles. What does that tell you about the sum purchasing power of the country? That is not to demean the importance of local production which Nigeria has been doing quite good in since the last administration. Trade and Commerce. This is not even an area we should go into. As a matter of fact, it is always still thought that Nigerian economy is still underestimated. Why? There is so much informal commercial activities going on that are not properly documented. Kenya may have a higher penetration of formal trade cuz of their small size but total volume and value of trade in Lagos alone will easily undermine what is done in the whole Kenya. I could go on and on. So if you are going to query Nigeria's big economy, you will have to question the IMF and World Bank representatives too knowing that the figures are not cooked up in isolation, anywhere in the world.

South Africa has more millionaires than Nigeria but at the end of the day, Nigeria still has more money (or assets if you like to think about it that way) in her economy than South Africa if you really understand the meaning of a bigger GDP. The implication is, if you discount infrastructural setbacks and bottleneck bureaucracy, Nigeria offers a higher return on investment than South Africa. So what's y'alls point again? |

iblawi: This is astupid argument... Which country is better a country of 100 Billionaires and a hundreds million poor ppl. I would wish to leave in a country with no Billionaire but with no poor ppl. I know Africa is far from this but our mind has been white washed with few major govt projects and forget the loot they have done. Was just reading some where that the oil mined in Nigeria since 1956 is same as the Brazilian GDP but we know the reality...

Boyedex: Thank you but they won't still understand except you explain further. They are so dull and think the rest of the world is dull too. If the size of our GDP is smaller than that south African companies won't get the kind of money the get from Nigeria. South Africans wouldn't have accepted Nigerian economy was larger than theirs. Why do you think more Nigerians are now investing in Nigeria? Because the discovered the true power of the country. 3 Likes |

Guy you very funny only house girls watch nigerian movies is that why Kenyan TV stations only show naija content why can't you guys produce your own programmes to entertain your jobless housewives. Well unlike Congo when our musicians go for concerts all over Africa we shut things down. Let your wife/girlfriend hear davido is coming to Nairobi she will sell your car to buy a ticket to see him. I mentioned dangote just to let you know he's one of many nigerian business people doing great things. IT is another emerging industry which mark Zuckerberg acknowledged by coming twice to nigeria. Like I said earlier I know nigeria has a lot of improving to do which I've been man enough to acknowledge it unlike you pretending Kenya is all cool and shiitt whereas we know you have a huge poverty problem if not you guys wouldn't have Africa's biggest slums ProudlyKenyan: 1 Like |

This thread has really gone a long way. Seriously i wish we Africans would have been able to channel all this energy we use to argue against and hate each other online into more productive discussions and thinking rather than trying to see who is better than the other. At the end of the day, the Europeans and Asians still see all we Sub-saharan Africans as the same black people. Am a Nigerian, but if i see another Black African country doing well, i really feel happy and take pride in them and wish we could all help each other and grow together. At least, we should be able to compare with the powerful European, Arab and Asian countries before we start claiming one thing or the other. 2 Likes |

Kenya has their own weakness and strength, Nigeria has it's too, even the South Africa that seems like the most Advanced African country have their own challenges too. |

ianSweet: All this I've explained to them but the keep claiming Kenya is better than Nigeria because some Nigerians refuse to come back to Nigeria. This ignorant Kenyans don't know that many Nigerians are in Benin republic and Togo that refuse to come back too. Does that make them better than Nigeria too? As a Nigerian I prefer to stay in Ibadan, Abuja or some other states than to stay in Lagos not because Ibadan and others are better off. 1 Like |

Kenyans please understand this point, we love all our African brothers, is only in Nigeria u come as a black man and no body ask you to show any form of identification same can not be said with your extremely corrupt police who have turned Nigerians and Somalis to ATM machines , we preferred u guys to the whites and Asians and i still can understand why Kenyans hate Nigerians so much, Nigerians and Kenyans are not in the-same league, Kenya is a very poor country , a country where only politicians leaves well, Kenya have very bad infrastructure,no roads(only at CBD) , Why keep clamoring on CBD, a place developed and manage by white British and Indians.? and how comes this topic is allowed to reach this level,why would Kenya of all countries compare it self with Nigeria? |

68816419:And Tuskys is not dead And not all Kenyans are black, there are other races here too, so, those Indians are KEnyan When I was in primary school I was taught KEnya has the following language groups 1. Bantu(Kikuyu, Kamba, Taita, Swahili etc) 2. Nilotes(Luo, Masai, Kalenjin etc) 3. Cushites(Somalis, Oromos, Rendilles etc 4 Semitic(though very few, there are some Arabs mainly from Yemen) Those groups have been in Kenya for centuries. So if you see a Somali guy in Kenya he is probably a native though some come from Somalia and are naturalised citizens 5. Indians. The British brought them to Kenya as railway workers, late 1800s, some never left. And those Indians you see are, Kenyan Asians, not Indian citizens. 6. Whites. Most are from the colonial stock who never left the country, they have kenyan citizenship. Then there are a few former Zimbabwe whites settled here. Then there are some Italians, mainly in MAlindi, some town which also has a nickname(Little Italy) Or you believe you must be black to be African?? The French national team is full of Black Frenchmen. Same case here, we have blacks, asians etc 1 Like |
