Your love is not in doubt, but rather your culture. We would love to know you guys better, perhaps through the arts and media. Tell your own stories, your history, translate them to English and French so we could watch, and It would be a pleasure. Stories like queen of sheba, her relationship with Ethiopia, Yemen and Solomons' Israel. Your kingdom in the time of Alexander, your squabbles with ltaly, your beautiful ladies, fashion, etc.

You are definitely right in this regard. We should advertise our country more to our fellow Africans. Regarding Queen of Sheba, most Ethiopians even don't know about her and their is no concrete evidences to support the claim she was real. I and most scholars agree that she was just a legend figure not a real person.

Personally, I'm trying as much as possible to tell about Ethiopia in this forum. Check out some of my topics:-

This also reminds me of Somalis

That is so true! !!

Probably caused by their native languages.

For his own sake I hope he did not wander too far into the darkess

Excellent combination.

If you want to be commando in Ethiopian army, out of the many difficult training drills, you must also run 300km and jump 3-4 story building.

Jez!!! No wonder u guys knw how to run marathon

So Mumbai alone would be third largest economy if it were to be in Africa? This is a cause for concern. Africa my Africa.

why is that a cause for concern ?

the most important parameter of a country is how happy and content the citizens of a country are, rest r just marketing/economic terms and indices which mean nothing in comparison to the above.

if everything is a competition than what is the point of living/enjoying the good aspects of life within ones own means/content.

who is more happy ?

1. a hot shot executive earning 1 million dollars per month with many Mercedes car, mansions etc, who doesn't have time for his wife ( who ends up banging others ) ,children's (who dont give a fuucck about him ) and the man himself who cant get a decent 5 hours peaceful sleep without banging a prostitute or doing drugs.

2.a middle/lower middle class person (can be a farmer , a businessman , a executive etc) who earns just enough to support his family but importantly has time and energy to be with his family and lives in bliss and love even with financial short comings , importantly he gets 5 hours peaceful sleep with the wife by his side to share his troubles and doting children's to support him.

the above analogy is on a individual level but can also be extrapolated to the level of a country , with the change of parameters .

example US and Switzerland

US is a hot shot country, going places and doing big things

Switzerland rarely makes the news

so in ur opinion who is more happy and living a good satisfied life, the Americans or the Swiss ?



every country must strive to be self sufficient and importantly happy within her means and capability , note capability factor is dynamic and progressive there are no short cuts and doing otherwise will only bring chaos and all sorts of difficulties.

TayserMahiri:


The first step is to ensure the bad guy (Sheikh) has some sort of internal struggles with their members (in their terror cell/mosque). Expose it to the media, let the public know, and then send your hitmen

Works all the time

TayserMahiri:


Not to lie to you, I hardly give a damn about the past. All I care is whether people are willing to come together to build an African Empire.

You are right wenedem. Our first priority should be in our future African empire or United States of Africa, but without forgetting our pasts to not repeat our past mistakes.

It is assumed that if Gaddafi wasn't killed in 2011, Africa Union might be single political state by the time 2017. It seems unrealistic, but it's there guess.

Now, the current prediction is in the 2060s. Even if it's achieved by then, most of us might be dead by then.

@nemesis2u...my friend,you spoke with an open mind.Kudos.

TayserMahiri:


This is their leader (former). He was beaten senseless and left the country. We don't entertain that type of nonsense here. The group is non existent now and it was actually an affiliate of Al Shabaab. Many of their radical Sheikhs are dead now. Mysteriously of course . One of the reasons for going to war in Somalia was taming radical groups such as MRC. The Shabaabs were spreading their tentacles very rapidly to Kenya and this MRC was their biggest wheel. They wanted a chaotic coast, a haven for their terror activities (Mombasa, Malindi, Diani et al.).

Ha ha

The world is a dangerous place

Isahalbash:






Jez!!! No wonder u guys knw how to run marathon

Yeah, we are good in marathon, but not all Ethiopians are good. There are very few Amhara, Tigray and other Ethiopian athletes, but most of the Ethiopian athletes we see on world stage winning medals are Oromo Ethiopians.

Nowenuse:


Why are you telling lies?

According to 2010 estimates Ghana was 71% christian and only 17% muslim. How close is that margin compared to Nigeria's 50/50 or even muslim domination?
Stop exaggerating. Ghana's religious margin cannot close anytime soon, not even in the next 50 years.

Northern Nigeria is probably 10 times the size of northern Ghana, it is developed only in your eyes.
Fewer areas of northern Nigeria are developed compared to it's large size.
The monthly oil money allocation from Abuja is also used in developing the state capitals of all northern states. Nothing else.

you won't believe that statistics after travelling to ghana .I believe vaxx is right about northern nigeria been more developed than northern ghana.

TayserMahiri:


Lmao, they are in parks chilling. The Lewa Marathon is a popular event here where people run inside the park, with animals joining in the fun. But there are rangers, so its very safe. The next event is on June 24 th. We don't excel in the marathons for no reason

That looks nice.Wish we could see movies from kenya with settings such as this.

forgiveness:


Mumuni, you just added a grammar to your library and decided to use but wrongly.

You can see, your boys had been tamed and are now submissive to their master fact.

If you make too much noise I will revisit many of your atrocious, malicious and provocative post, I have overlooked for peace. Be warned old man.

Clinical definition of autism:

Autism, or autism spectrum disorder, refers to a range of conditions characterized by challenges with social skills, repetitive behaviors, speech and nonverbal communication, as well as by unique strengths and differences.

The thread is 9 months old and you're still repeating poo that's been debunked multiple times! Who keeps mumbling about skyscrapers with all the brainpower of a stinking zombie banging on the door growling, "GRRRRR!"

abegi which kind of animal joins them in the marathon if I may ask?

TayserMahiri:


Really bro, I also doon't like how fast their population is growing. Kenyan Somalis are nice people tho. I think we will be lucky even if they become the majority because they are likely to have many factions opposed to each other.

What percentage of Kenya are the Somalis in Kenya?

What is the relationship btw Somalis and Swahili muslims like?

How many counties are dominated by the swahilis in Kenya?

TayserMahiri:


That settles it. Even a short word like Oga, has to be shouted. Can the word Oga be whispered btw?

LoL

Loudness is more or less a pidgin english attribute. It makes the conversation sweeter and more fascinating.

TayserMahiri:


There is ethnic differences in kenya but every Kenyan has Kenya deeply at heart.

What ethnic group are you?

i have provide him two links that disagree with his wikipedia record. Infact the matter is yet to be resolve. You can also read about it

http://www.newsfromafrica.org/newsfromafrica/articles/art_7902.html. This is what wikipedia says about the gap diffrence .https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Islam_in_Ghana&action=edit&section=1.

TayserMahiri:


Al Shabaab has made kenyan army modernize. I think we can thank them for that

I watched Kenyatta on K24 yesterday, adressing people in Lamu......men, are you not sure most muslims in Lamu are fanatics? The women were too covered almost like those in Saudi Arabia.

Nowenuse:

Then you jump off one and record.

Hbuyosh:
How Kenya is growing with these bunch of selfish people in power is quite astounding. Apparantly is us the "everyday/common people" as they to refer us, who do the bulk of the task of developing this country. The country is moving forward despite of the politicians, not because of them.

Whenever it comes to election time, some leaders remind me of Hitler and his manipulative lies.

Their elders are very powerful, almost like West African kings.

nemesis2u:


i was in Mumbai and surprisingly missed all this

plz give source ?

dont post pics and videos

give data/links from government/ reputed international sources

i have gone through ur posts , u seem to specialize in shitting on others which is very unfortunate

i dont like comparisons because they dont serve any purpose other than satisfy the false ego of some individuals

still let me make a exception this time to lift ur veil of ignorance

Mumbai city GDP 278 billion dollars (2015)

Nigeria national GDP 481.1 billion dollars (2015)

Mumbai which is a city has a GDP which is more than half of the national GDP of Nigeria.

what does it tell u ?

its industry and services r running on epileptic power supply , stupidity has its limits.

according to NEW WORLD WEALTH as of 2015 Mumbai is home to 45000 millionaires and 28 billionaires with a total wealth of 820 billion dollars.

yes there r certain areas where it is dirty, and so r London, New York, Paris etc so u saying Mumbai is a dirty slum is a height of bigoted and stupid OSTRICH attitude.

as for Indian power generation,

FACTS TO OPEN UR IGNORANT EYE

1.India is the world's third largest producer and fourth largest consumer of electricity.

2.The utility electricity sector in India has one National Grid with an installed capacity of 329.20 GW (as of 30 April 2017). [1 GW= one billion watts]

3.As of 31 March 2017, 99.25% of 597,464 villages in India are electrified

and finally for a country of large size with varied climate, geography and some amount of human mismanagement , there will be impact on final distribution to the end users. Inadequate last mile connectivity is the main problem due to human mismanagement , local political interference , dynamic factors like climate / terrain , but the fact remains that the idling generation capacity of Indian power plants can supply three times the domestic electricity needs (nearly 80 billion KWh) of the people who do not have access to electricity due to the above reasons.

supplying electricity to 1.2 billion people spread over 3,287,263 square km (7th largest country) over mountains plains deserts snow bound regions jungles etc is no joke .

unless you or the country of whom you are a citizen has done better, u don't have the right or the audacity to demean/slander the achievements of other countries.


a dirty place can be cleaned up eventually , but a dirty mind will always remain a dirty mind.

a good man/woman will never demean other countries in order to praise his/her country.

it is a matter of good education , upbringing and a good personal character

my last post here
many good people r here but stupid people like u dont make it worth my time here.

i always take pleasure in the achievements of other countries , their negativities is not my business , which is the matter of concern for the respective citizens of the said countries only.

Not reading post after you claim I specialize in shittying on others.
If you are angry with my post go argue with your fellow Indians and lift their viel of ignorance .
If you say it's better fine but you seem kind of rude.

Maybe Nollywood can tap into that scenery.
