Oh good!
The equipments of your soldiers are modern and the training drills looks impressive. Is this why the terrorist acts in Kenya declined recently, if there was any for the past one year?

I've heard good about your airlines. Our airline had been named the best in Africa for the past 5 consecutive years. Do you personally think, your airline should have won the award during those 5 years?

Yea, we havent had terror attacks for a few good years. Largely due to the measures taken.

What is the motto of Ethiopian Airlines?

I don't believe we deserved at all. You guys deserved it, your airline offers the best services.

There are lots of Nigerians that has given us good reputation abroad.


First black major in Ireland
Four Nigerians are members of British parliamentary
Appointed minister in UK
Major in London
First African jurist to be elected as the president of international court of justice Hague.


Too many

For some reason, your bad guys erode the good reputation more than many other countries' bad guys do. I don't disagree you have great guys. I'm personally a big fan of Dangote ! Thats of course when nigerians are not using his name to talk shiit about other Africans.

I don't know.

But I know in sports, Abdul jabber karim, Hakeen Olajunwon were among the top 5 - 10 greatest basketballers in the world.

There are many others but I am humble.

And yours(Kenya) is "Pride of Africa". Am I correct?

Ok interesting. Thanks

Would you say Potiskum is as big and developed as Zaria?

Which tribes are actually the natives of Potiskum? I heard it was the Ngizim people and maybe Bade. But it seems like Hausas and Kanuris have outnumbered the natives there, or not?

What about Gashua? That town seems quite famous. How developed is it?
Gumel in Jigawa too, the name seems quite famous. How developed in the place?

Also, why is it that it seems like most educated core-northerners always love to migrate and live in Kano, Kaduna and Abuja? Why does it seem like they don't like to develop and populate their own State capitals?

I have not been to potiskum before, but is Zaria really developed cos I can't see dat apart from having more of higher institutions nd wat hv u... They r just lucky to b favored by govt in d past.


Eastern Gashua is dominated by d Bades- Hausas and Kanuri r also present. Ngizim are d real occupants of postikum, dere emirs from onset r mostly Ngizim nd one or two bades. They r also present in Bornu nd Jigawa bfor, but r extinct now. They dey easily foregone dere dialect for Hausa.


Gumel is kinda popular because of its evry two days market day... Daz all I knw.



Most governors in Nigeria don't spend a week in dere states, instead, dey go to Abuja. If a governor wit all d luxuries can't stay in his state who re u expecting to stay, besides, it's not a core north tin, it's a Nigeria stuff. People tend to live where dere businesses will flourished. Despites, Ogun state is developed, their rich men prefer to live in Lagos to Ogun state.

American also from their statistics have continually noted Nigerians are the most educated foreigners in the U.S. That again is another huge reputation, it means we even do better than black Americans in their land.
Nigerians are also experts in so many cyber security technologies abroad.
Except for Germany(to an extent) in Europe, U.K, U.S, Canada has so many outstanding record breaking Nigerian students. This is not to say other Africans or nationalities do not surpass Nigeria sometimes, but rather to make it clear that our bad name and good names come side by side.
Now in the U.S, our bad name is centered on internet scam or 419, but let's face it, why do these white men keep falling for these scams? Scams from Africans whom they refer to as people with lower lQ's, so how then do the yahoo boys outsmart them? The scammers know many of these whites are not only greedy but also not really smart, this of course doesn't excuse their criminal activities and how it soils our name Abroad in the long run.

optimistickenya:
Nigerians sorry but am speaking the truth.

My dear Kenyans...why are we really wasting our time engaging in meanigless round and round nonsense.
We all know who is in a better place. Last I checked I still have water, elec and a proper sewer system and I am safe and I exist in an environment where as a young Kenyan anything is possible.
Fuel is stable, been paying the same water bill for three years, I have a fully functioning school and hospital near me, the roads are okay...not the best but better than 5yrs ago,unga just came down.
Yet we are comparing ourselves to a country where they still think mono rails are cool and better looking trains are the ish.
When they should be thinking can the trains carry cargo?...do mono rails carry the max number of passenger to and fro? How is this train or road going to affect the greater economy and not just building things cause they look better. A country that can sell oil in the tunes of tens of billions and still have a 30% deficit in their budget and lack foreign currency!
So Kenyans...let us move on. Lets keep working..if we don't we might come to see powdered milk as okay and actually be comfortable with it...when we all know powdered milk is for when there is a crisis!

*yawn* no substance.

This fellow thinks Monorail adds nothing to the well being of the masses and only a standard gauge will do.

This fellow is not aware that apart from our railway system currently active, we have a standard gauge running from Abuja to Kaduna and will be connected to Lagos. Even the coastal standard gauge is also on ground.

This fellow arrogantly thinks, Nigerians are suffering while Kenyans are comfortable.

Delusion.

Yes, they are related. Agaw, Afar, Oromo, Somalia and most other Horn of Africans are Cushites. Even the likes of Amhara, Tigray, Gurage, Harar and others who speak Semitic family language are more Cushites than Semites. On average Amharas and Tigrays are 60-70% Cushite and 30-40% Semite.

Tanx for d elucidation. I thought Amharas and Tigrays r more Semitic than cushites because of d Arab connection...

We have our own peacekeeping force under UN in South Sudan. My father actually was the leader of the mission from February, 2015 until his death last August. Are there Kenyan peacekeeping forces in South Sudan or other African countries other than Somalia?

Kudos to your dad. I heard sometimes back there are kenyan forces in S. Sudan but I am not sure. KEnyan official policy does not allow forces to be deployed to a neighboring country with the exception of Somalia. The Ethiopian army is reknowned for its ruthlessness and brutality, they sweep across towns and swathes of land and win battles fast. Something close to Russia's system of war.

Thanks!
On average, large percentage of Amharas and Tigrays DNA is Agaw(Cushite). They have also other Cushite ancestors like Afar, Beja, Oromos and others. There main Semite ancestors came from Yemenite.

Most says, Ethiopians look Arabs and Europeans only because of their admixture with Arabs, but they are incorrect.

Your policy explains why. Now I understand.

To correct you, Ethiopian army's aren't cruel. They will do what ever they can to keep peace in the region, but they will try do the job as humanly as possible.

So, we need to consider Ancient Egyptians as many multi ethnic peoples.

Do you know the descendants of the many people you stated above other than Berbers?

Looking for your last 2 photos you posted, Afro-Asiatic originated in Ethiopia. But others are saying, it was originated in the Mediterranean area. And the central Cushitic(Ethiopia) isn't present in the map.

Yes there are many theories. Most scholars believe that somewhere in Africa was where Afro-Asiatic originate from. The reason that map shows Southern Ethiopia was because of the most divergent Afro-Asiatic branch, the Omotic branch is spoken in the area being the first to split off, so the Proto Afro-Asiatic by some is thought to be spoken around the area. Some people suggest that the red sea around Eritrea is where Afro-Asiatic languages originates from.

The map is just a general map.

Yes, before there was the Egyptian culture, there were multiple ethnicities in the area.

I don't think Ancient Egyptians are far off from modern Horners in terms of complexion. If you compare Ethiopian orthodox and Sudanese coptic murals to Ancient Egyptian murals. According to scholars, the Naqadan culture became the dominant culture in Southern Egypt after the Badari culture. The Naqada were blacks having similar culture with the Nubians. Remember that Upper(Southern) Egypt and Lower(Northern) Egypt were separate kingdoms until they were united. Northern Egypt has more foreign influence than the South. Why? Because the South is furthest from the Mediterranean and more interior. The North was usually the first point of entry/part that was invaded by empires outside of Africa.

Till today, Egyptians themselves note difference between Northern and Southern Egypt. There is a disparity in the North and South. Today, a lot of the mainstream Egyptian culture is from the North with the biggest Egyptian cities like Cairo, Giza, and Alexandria all in the North. This wasn't always the case, Southern Egyptian was very prominent Ancient Egyptian cities like Memphis, Thebes and Luxor all located in the South. Southern Egypt today is considered more rural and poorer with 80% of Egypt's poverty concentrated in the South.

There are two main Arabic spoken in Egypt. What we know as the Egyptian Arabic is actually from the North of Egypt. The South of Egypt speak a different language called Sa'idi Arabic. The Egyptian Arabic is the only variant that is recognized as a national language. The people in Southern Egypt have a distinct identity and are known as Sai'dis and they represent 40% of Egypt's population.

Because Southern Egypt is more interior, foreign influence was limited. That's why Southern Egyptians were regarded on average as being darker in complexion than the North. It also took Islam a longer time to penetrate the South. This is why today the percentage of Coptic Christians in the South is higher than the North.
I think it's interesting that the millenia old differences between Upper and Lower Egypt exist today.

Kenyans dont fight us we are not the only one who think you guys are ugly.

This is not the first time Kenya has been ranked among African countries with most not so palatable faces in the continent.
Sometimes last year, a research done by South Africans also insinuated that Kenyan faces were not so pleasing to their eyes.

http://www.ghafla.com/2015/06/18/kenyans-are-butt-ugly-controversial-list-ranks-the-country-among-african-nations-with-ugliest-people/

Not our fault bro, not our fault.

But nigeria is not the only country that think you guys are ugly.

There is a yearly award for the Most Beautiful People of Africa and in the recent one, Out of 48 participating countries, Kenya was placed last with a score of just 7 points out of a possible 540 points! The first runner-up ugliest was Zambia, then second runners-up was Gabon. It’s bad enough being called ugly, but it’s a whole lot for other people to be labeled ugly by consensus.
Kenyans have received the award for the funniest and the most ugly people in Africa on at least 2 occasions in which they were voted the funniest looking people in Africa. Among the 48 participating nations in the Annual Most Beautiful People of Africa Awards one of which was held at the Gregor Theater in Bloemfontein South Africa and Kenya took the last position for the most beautiful people, dislodging Zambia and reclaiming the title it held in 2000.
The top position was taken by Rwanda, then followed by Cameroon and Ethiopia as second runner-up. The judges awarded points based on physical appearance, grooming, presentation, communication among others.
However, the subjectivity involved in assessing the ugliest people in the world and Africa has made it unfair to tag any one country as having the ugliest people populating it, every country has beautiful and not so beautiful people…also it depends on what other countries view as beautiful. Everyone’s different so you can’t pick just one country.

Thanks again wenedem. You have greatly educated me.

Do you think that some west African peoples may be part of Ancient Egyptian?

“Women from the Kikuyu community have small legs, totally no figures, and a little exaggerated heads. They lack good behinds and those who have them look like inflated balloons. They are shaped like pyramids turned upside down. A big upper frame and an almost invisible lower bit.
Luo men on the other side have distorted facial features..say big lips and huge noses or should we call them knobs. Kikuyu men are also disproportional, and most of them are stunted. They walk leaning forward. Plus they have long rusty teeth.”
