Ednite:


Amharic and tigrigna are languages, but am Amhara. You are right, ur good! Am again surprised how u knew my tribe, its sometimes difficult to differentiate for Ethiopians themselves. Wow!

Welcome to this thread. I have always had trouble separating an Ethiopian from an Eritrean Your languages sound practically the same even to the untrained ear. I grew up in Nairobi not far from the orthodox church in hurlingham and met and befriended many Ethiopians in my youth . I ate wot and doro wot with injera and goat meat.

Tell us, What is the beef with Eritreans? Also, give us an update or your feelings on the current situation regarding the oromo pro independence movement /agitation.

NairobiWalker:


You should be thanking God I'm responding to you. i don't normally entertain dimwits.

are u stupid or what?why wouldnt u respond when u are my dawg?haven't u noticed how predictable u masais are?come on,even a kid would.

Chewing my fresh bitterleaf as l read comments.......

Oga, i have followed your contributions on agriculture section. Indeed you are not ordinary nairalander. You say alot of positive things about Kenya (and we are not a biblical Eden either),and it is well appreciated.

Do you get the feeling some things like this thread are educative or destructive? Building or destroying?

Ps. I enjoyed your post on how you avoided an extra bank charge in favour of ten litres of milk. That was hilarious. LOL. I would also do the same.

NairobiWalker

If i said you're too young to talk about traveling it might be lie because i don't know your age, but one thing i knew is that you're too poor mentally and physically. this is my 8th year outside african continent and i knew almost about every country and their capacity in africa. i am not good in writing long epistle, if i tell you about this your kenya you won't come to this site again.

Exactly, we are hearing of Kenyan prostitutes all over the middle east. Are they that desperate to the extent of infiltrating strictly muslim arab nations as sex workers?

GAAASSSSPPPP! A Naij woman accusing our women of international hoism!!!? Its true, you're epically dumb. There are yt docs of Edo and Ibo females carpeting every small town and village in Greece and Italy selling yansh. They're trapped by Nollywood type voodoo and have been active for up to a decade-WITHOUT A BREAK!

MtuMsuper:

You are an utter utter disgrace. Epically, fantastically, monumentally,royally disgraceful. Go to some other section, and spare us the indignity of having to share the same space. Ps. Think about the impending hike in data charges coming, and factor that into your next outburst.
Dang!! I haven't seen enough yet.

Yeah, i can see the anger.

MtuMsuper:

Someone wise didn't tell me there are as many opinions as there are people (and arseholes, lol). It is self evident. You sir, are just another anonymous, angry 9jan who kenyans had the misfortune of hosting, and seeing a country that he didn't expect to fit his carefully pre packaged image. Whatever we did to you, we are not sorry.
PS: dont throw the name of an ethnic group as an insult. Maasai culture may not be like yours, but they dont deserve to be insulted by you or anyone. Not every Kenyan is a maasai and not every maasai is a kenyan. Did you know that?

Clap 4 urself and run along.u shouldnt be too silly to know i use 'masai' as my pet name for the kenyans here.u of all people should know that,masai!

BS.... We're winning this...

Yes i know of Nigerian women and it's just a single tribe in Nigeria that majorly does that, the tribe is barely 2% of the Nigerian population. These are part of the things u suffer sharing a large nation with so much diversity and different individuals.
Kenya is too small to have such issues.

NairobiWalker:


1. Nigeria got independence in 1960 while Kenya got in 1963 - that's just a difference of 3 years......and how does it matter? Stop reasoning like your stupid politician who thinks Nigerians were in UK universities while Kenyans were in the forest when formal education in Kenya is as old as in Nigeria. Ghana got independence 3 years before you - does that make Ghana superior to you? Liberia had been an independent state for 113 years before Nigeria gained independence, does that make Liberia greatly superior to Nigeria?

2. You claim Nigeria was doing very well shortly after independence then went on a downward trend thereafter - can I say then that Nigeria was only run well under the White Man and continued with the momentum a few years after independence before you Naijas bleeped it up? Does that then beat the logic of you peeps always trying to credit the White Man on any advancement other African countries make? Can we then agree you do that from insecurity since you feel so bad that a white man created you a good country which you destroyed so now you get very jealous and combative whenever other countries do well and since you can't fathom it you go around shouting 'oyinbo did it for them'?

No, we discovered oil later on and so much effort was pushed towards oil exploration.
The collapse of the regional govt system after the civil war made issues worse, because the federal govt now had so much power and virtually everything was controlled by them and they channeled so much effort towards oil exploration which is paying off today but has sadly made many of us lazy, but the good news is that the mentality is now gradually changing and we are now going back to our agricultural roots.
U can see how much progress we are now making in the agricultural and industry sector. It would be just a short time from now.

However u Kenyans are still lucky that your colonial people (Indians and whites) are still in your country to help u run things there because it's obvious u guys would have never achieved anything on your own.

The colonialists knew that when they came to Nigeria, they met thriving and independent Kingdoms and Empires who were engaging im Transharan trades and were even reading and writing, so they knew they can leave us to cater for ourselves unlike Kenyans who were still running all over nakedd when the colonialists came, so they decided that some of them still stay behind to help u run, control and dominate Kenya forever.

Black Kenyans, say me hi to your masters, the people who made Kenya what it managed to be. Without them, no Kenya.

Believe me, you have defended us enough, please go take a rest my Lady. Leave Kenyans alone...you only fight with those above you, it's a sign of inferiroeity complex that is understandable. ..peace!!

NairobiWalker:


America and Japan didn't depend on oil to develop.

But was America in recession?

Was Japan in recession?

NairobiWalker:


Yeah......but you have to be fair - don't just complain when Nigeria is misrepresented and ignore when the same happens to Kenya.

Hehehehe! Truly, there is nothing like fairness or equality in this world because everybody wants to be better than each other.

LeSudAfricaine:
Then stop reasoning like one

Guy's before u feed this ignorant troll, take your time and go through his posts.
It's hard sometimes but he's best ignored.

All this back and forth argument nor dey tire una?
Here's the list of African countries by Human Development Index. :
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_African_countries_by_Human_Development_Index

"Human Development Index is a comparative measure of life expectancy, literacy, education, and standards of living for countries worldwide. It is a standard means of measuring well-being. It is used to distinguish whether the country is a developed, developing, or underdeveloped country, and also to measure the impact of economic policies on quality of life. Countries (almost all UN member states and a couple of special territories) fall into three broad categories based on their HDI: high, medium, and low human development."

Let's put patriotism aside, Kenya is clearly ahead of Nigeria, but not in all aspects.

Tell us, What is the beef with Eritreans? Also, give us an update or your feelings on the current situation regarding the oromo pro independence movement /agitation.

The problem of Eritreans is undefined,

but don't compare our fight with kenya Nigeria fight,
ours is way different.

they took the port
separate the countries
migrate back here
still not satisfied staying in our country but insult us


what do you call this?
By the way, Egypt is a major reason for our separation. They told eritreans that they are Arabs then Eritreans joined Arab league. Eritreans become tail of Arab countries. They got funded with money from Arabs to have the power to separate from us. they become independent from Ethiopia but dependent on Arabs. What a shame. . .
If you were an Ethiopian, would you say nothing about this?

ANY KENYAN OR NIGERIAN CAN JUDGE US

I have no word for Egypt, but I will tell them their dream of making river Nile their own is over!!

when it comes to Oromo independence movement, it was shocking. I am scared of thinking what people are thinking now. Ethiopia lost Djibouti and Eritrea; nothing gained but lost. I bet Oromo ppl learn from that. I care for my country especially because I know our history was made together, not one tribe alone. it's sad when we were supposed to take it to the next level, but turn our faces to another side and say that 'all that history made is over because the new history being made in recent is from a new state. No more Ethiopian.'
my heart is really broken, I swear. I believe civil wars we had and everything in the past is enough to suffer with, why we have to add more? I love Oromo ppl, they are my ppl too, but if they walk with such a blindness, not seeing the priceless value of unity, even if they had a chance for independence, they themselves will separate into 5 again.

So much calls of fragmentations and de-amalgamations of many african states is increasing exponentially in their multiplicities,moreso,the concatenation of seperatist movements indefatigably fans the embers for the splits,from the saharawis to the biafrans to oromos to the south sudanese to the eritreans,to the congolese ,etc,the split leaves more to be desired as the hangover of the previous togetherness exudes as nostalgia of pre-disintergration,candidly,this could exacerbate the aggravated situations,as history plunges into the bask of its reoccurance, imagine an artificial demarcation of a ties and bonds of civilizations past stripped off its interconnectivity and mutual interconnectedness, why should things meant to bind us,keep tearing us apart why?

NairobiWalker:


Men who know how to get a woman have been there buddy. We were not born playas - we nurtured the game. We did all this bullshit You're doing right now. We put the woman we wanted on a pedestal ad let her step on us, we supported everything she said and played dumb, we did all the good stuff for her and expected her to pay us with her love but then we grew out of it and learned from experience. You make a woman want you - you dont make her see that you want her. That's lesson one for you loser.

Damn.

You keep pretending you're that quiet guy who knows much but doesn't speak much but the little you speak sells you out. Since you came to this thread all you ever say is 'Kenya is too poor to be compared to Nigeria. Kenya is too poor to be a country - no facts, no evidence, no nothing. You're either uneducated, unknowledgeable or simply brainless. See, I don't know where you stay or whether you've actually travelled but living outside Africa does not make one smart. A fool in Nigeria will still be a fool in London. My people have a saying that a monitor Lizard does not become a crocodile when it's moved from Lake Victoria to Indian Ocean. You claim you know so much about Kenya yet you don't even live in Africa. You've never been to Kenya. I've been to Nigeria and I live in Kenya. Talk to Pavore - a Nigerian who lives in Kenya and he'll tell you about Kenya.

Who said it was colonized? Some people on this thread need medical help seriously.

People eat different foods everywhere - just like what you eat in Nigeria may surprise us here in Kenya so does what we eat here in Kenya to you guys

forgiveness:

Recession was never my point my friend. Reread my post - it was about you guys depending on oil and oil companies.

edit

LeSudAfricaine:
I always say their economy is like a Fiat with a Ferrari emblem, totally on paper. I'd rather boast after it has created proper lving conditions for the people, good roads, better medical facilities, etc.

"Fiat with a Ferrari emblem" ohh damn.what a great analogy,I like it

Also,how about a Ferrari with a Nissan 1400 engine?

where in Nairobi does Pavore live?

This battle is lost my fellow Nigerians, we were never going to win anyway but good fight.

Also you can express yourself without insulting anyone. You Kenyans are so rude.

Gracious morning,

So that is to say,it is part of the culture,,really weird to me,anyway one thing i admire about the east africans,is the triumvitrate of nyerere,kenyatta and obote ,on how the regional eca was set up in 1967,after your independence ,with railways,ports and roads being a collective regional ish,this greatly fostered regional intergraton.,the architectures in mombasa,tells alot about the footprints of the portuguse, particularly the fort jesus,anyway happy independence day my pals,you got liberated from the colonial shackles on 12th of december

Obudu,jabilake,gashaka gumti mambila,taraba
