uzzyfire: There has been no crisis in Jos city for 7 yrs now (so it's a long time). The cold season is usually Nov-Early March. The cold is over now. Only Nights and mornings are cool now, and rainy days too. Jos is mountainous, so you will enjoy the scenery. Food is very cheap. In terms of city infrastructure, Jos is just like Warri (although it is neater). |

Just30: I'm not talking of local Ghanaian languages, i'm talking of the pidgin we hear you guys sometimes speak which sounds Nigerian. |
Re: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by Just30: 7:32pm On Apr 22, 2017 |
Nowenuse:I just told you, it doesn't sound Nigerian at all. Except you want to tell me Nigerians speak Twi, Fante, Portuguese or Danish Cos most of the pidgin we speak is a corruption of those languages as well as creative formations to sideline authorities whom we don't want to understand. |

Olu317:Nigerians and their Shakara. There is a difference between the potential to be the greatest and actually being the greatest. Nigeria is a shithole as it is now, but with massive potential to not be a shithole. Does that help? |

MtuMsuper:That's just 4 small countries confined to East Africa,and how come Ethiopia doesn't speak swahili?That kind of limits it although I sincerely wish all of black Africa could speak one language even if it was Swahili or Twi.But then a single language as a uniting factor is something overrated.Switzerland,a small country,has 4 official languages(french,Italian,German and Romansch)yet it's arguably the world's richest and most successful nation. |
Re: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by Nobody: 8:37pm On Apr 22, 2017 |
obaaderemi: Ethiopians will be speaking swahili soon. They are finally opening up to regional trade. |
Re: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by obaaderemi: 8:45pm On Apr 22, 2017 |
Muafrika2:What language do the elderly kenyans who can't speak swahili use especially if they are educated?I feel it has to be English and their indigenous languages.And you speak the colonial language for your own sake because it happens to be a universal language without which you would find it nigh impossible to compete beyond certain levels.Even french and Germans with more developed languages learn English for their own sake |

TayserMahiri:That will be great but then you've been neighbours for 'forever'.I'm not really sure if Ethiopia borders kenya.Again Aramhaic is a big thing in Ethiopia and kenyans speak way too much English. |

obaaderemi: It has nothing to do with more developed language but global influence. Englishmen are just more influential globally (USA, UK, ANZ). Elderly educated kenyans speak fluent english, but they will understand everything you say in Swahili. The problem for them is speaking good swahili because when they were in school it was not a requirement. |

obaaderemi: We are neigbours but Ethiopia has always segregated herself since the earliest of times due to their history of foreign invasions. Amharic is only spoken in Ethiopia and Eritrea and maybe a little in Egypt (if at all). It has never spread to surrounding countries such as Sudan, Kenya, Djibouti and Somalia. Ethiopian government is very protectionist. |

Just30: Hmm, we never hear your pidgin being spoken. Okay, so why do you guys still speak ours? Can you pls translate these sentences for me in your own pidgin? I'd like to know how it sounds 1, I don't know how to eat this kind of food. 2, It has been long i travelled abroad. 3, My stomach is filled |

fanficgirl: According to your definition, which African country is not a shit hole? Do you want to compare yourself with Europeans who have been building their countries for centuries? |

Re: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by gallivant: 11:22pm On Apr 22, 2017 |
obaaderemi: Ethiopia and Eritrea are very closed societies. They are also very socialist so don't be shocked our cultures are not intertwined compared with other East African nations. However, increased trade and diplomatic ties will solve this dilemma. |

uzzyfire: It hailstorms almost yearly. Even within Jos-Plateau, some places are colder than the others e.g Rukubua (in Jos city), Pankshin and Kuru towns (outside Jos), because these places are the highest points on the Plateau. It hails more often in these places because they are colder. The hailstorms can cover a street. It is worse in some places than others even when it is falling same time. |

obaaderemi: Almost all Swiss people speak German and English. Forget the french speaking and other minorities. Europe have always had lingua francas at different times. It was latin some few centuries ago, then it became french and now English. |

Nowenuse:what part of Jos do u stay . does it get very hot in Jos, cos Lagos na fire I swear |
Re: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by Nowenuse: 11:43pm On Apr 22, 2017 |
uzzyfire: I am not based in Jos. I am based in Warri/Benin, but while am in Jos i stay at Lowcust (that's where my family house is). It gets hot in Jos too especially now that the rain has not started well. The better fact about Jos is that no matter how hot the daytime is, the nights are always cooler than other cities. |
