We tell them that nigeria is millennium ahead of kenya, they argue.

We gave them Facts, they gave us their blasted opinion and blogs source.

They told us that all our development are because of oil.

We explain to them that Nigeria has more agricultural output than their country could hope for.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_producing_countries_of_agricultural_commodities


They told us that they have more electricity.

We told them that nigeria generate more megawatts of electricity than kenya can hope for in the next 10 years.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_electricity_production

We told them that in Nigeria we dont generate electricity for a small percent of our population , wd carry everyone along.

They said they have a busier ports.

We explain to them it is not a matter of Quantity but of Quality.

They say it is because of our oil, that we have a more expensive and valuable ports.

We tell them it is because of their tea they have a busier ports.

We told them we have a gdp that is the biggest in Africa and is bigger than anything kenya will ever achieve in all of its existence.

They said it is because of oil.

We told them it account for less than other sector of our economy.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Nigeria

They said we have scam the AU, UN, WORLDBANK, CIA, Whole world.

In honesty, all these African forums have nothing but horrible to say about other Africans, so anyone here claiming Nigeriana purposely only bash other Africans is a liar. Nigerians go look at Kenyan websites ans the disgusting things said there

They said we are poor.

We told them that despite our huge population we only have 33% of people living below the poverty line.

"Nigeria has one of the world's highest economic growth rates, averaging 7.4% according to the Nigeria economic report released in July 2014 by the World Bank. Poverty still remains significant at 33.1% in Africa's biggest economy. For a country with massive wealth and a huge population to support commerce, a well-developed economy, and plenty of natural resources such as oil, [1] the level of poverty remains unacceptable. [2] However, poverty may have been overestimated due to the lack of information on the extremely huge informal sector of the economy, [3][4] estimated at around 60% more, of the current GDP figure"

https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/55538/1/MPRA_paper_55538.pdf

While kenya with a smaller population has a higher poverty level.

"KENYA is the sixth poorest country in Africa, according to a report compiled by a security think tank.
The report, prepared by South Africa-based Institute for Security Studies, says 18.4 million Kenyans (40 per cent) out of 46.3 million live in extreme poverty."

Despite having a smaller population they still have higher unemployment rate than Nigeria.

We tell them their country is on the way of being nigeria 37th state , they said we are lying.

See what your fellow country man has to say.

"Need I tell you how Kenyatta International Conference Center was overflowing with single ladies eager to hear the secret to a man’s heart? I hope the Nigerian priest of marriage finds time to speak with brodas in Nairobi, and ask them why they let all those chicks roam the streets waiting for a Nigerian to hook them up.
I weep for my mother’s land. Not because I have anything against Nigerians, but for the Kenyan predilection of being so trusting. It has been said in other quarters that the great state of Nigeria, will hit a population of 250 million in the next couple of decades. Now, that is a huge population. Seeing that they are also so enterprising, after colonizing us culturally, they will need extra land to grow their food and keep their cattle. Remember the vast Athi-Tana plains are still empty.
“ Oshe…oshe O….oshe O…oshe Baabaa …” see, I also learnt some Igbo in Nairobi. Now you go learn some, my broda O, and see how yori yori (sweet) it sounds."

Re: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by Shaytun: 11:58pm On Jun 09, 2017
Recolonization of kenya is a task that Must be Done.

"Name the biggest musicians in Africa right now. Now name some of African films’ biggest stars. Go ahead, I’ll wait. How many of them were Nigerians?
I interviewed one of them last week, the “highlife musician”, Flavour, most famous here for his Nwa Baby song and its Ashawo remix. Like the most conceited of eternally sunglass-wearing stars, he was a fragile personality, treated by his management like a precious piece of china always at risk of breaking if not handled carefully.
Even for one who massages egos for a living like me, his egregiously cocky demeanour was over the top and supremely annoying, almost as if sucking out all the air from the studio.
The smugness that travels along with Flavour is not unique to him. His compatriot, Davido, is no different. A big star on the African music scene, he is also well aware of his stardom and acts as you would expect of a rich, spoilt brat.
I was in Mauritius in late June for a Multichoice content showcase for their DStv and GoTV channels when I met the 22-year-old musical force. I didn’t get an on-camera interview; he had to run off to a busy night of partying before leaving the next morning for a different part of the continent.
On my return flight, I had the misfortune of sharing my cattle-class row with two Nigerian journalists. The men demanded to be served before everyone else, and despite having flown economy, wanted the services of a private suite on the upper deck of an Airbus 380.
“Nigerians have a highly defined sense of self-belief,” entrepreneur Mike Macharia told me. “If you meet a Nigerian somewhere, it is not someone you’ll look down upon because you’re prejudicial.”
He has spent the last few years trying to expand the company he founded and still leads – Seven Seas Technologies – into Africa’s most populous and biggest economy.
In Kenya, Nigerian movies are some of the most popular on television, much loved not just by housewives and househelps, but by many who would probably never publicly admit to watching Nollywood productions.
Nigerian music is so well liked in Kenya that a radio station that purports to play “urban African music” has a playlist of mostly Nigerian music. It might as well be called Davido FM.
So powerful is the “Nigerian” branding in Kenya that the Nigerian-Kenyan comedian, Obinna, has channelled it into a radio and TV show, performs to large crowds and is even launching a singing career.
“What makes Nigerians so different is that they’ve accepted themselves, they’ve accepted their loudness, and they embrace their African-ness,” former TV business journalist Cynthia Nyamai told me by phone.
She says her eponymous communication consultancy is doing good business in Nigeria, just a few months in.
“They allow themselves to dream big – you think of owning a Range Rover Sport, they are dreaming of owning a jet or buying a holiday home in Spain.’
Obinna says his Kenyan fans love the boisterous nature of his character.
“Nigerians are flashy, they wear loud colours and drive big vehicles and Kenyan women especially love that.”
Mentally superior to Africans
He plays into the overconfident stereotype that many Kenyans both love and admire.
“Kenyans feel mentally superior in East Africa, but Nigerians feel mentally superior to most Africans,” Macharia says.
“That level of self-assurance works for them across Africa.”
He points out that Nigerian businesses are making more investments in the country, such as GT Bank’s recent acquisition of 70per cent of Fina Bank.
‘They find us weak, so when he comes here and buys a small bank, $100 million (Sh8.7bn) is something he can easily do.”
There’s a Nigerian everywhere you look, anywhere in the world. A friend took me to Croydon in South London two years ago and we found Nigerian influences there suffocating.
A large immigrant community in a former colonial master is certainly admirable but the growing supremacy of Nigeria in Kenya remains unexplored. That Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, is investing in the cement and energy business here and President Uhuru Kenyatta is noticeably warming up to President Goodluck Jonathan are just the latest signals.
Growing influence in Kenya
One of Africa’s biggest writers, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, was in Nairobi for a literary festival late last year to a prodigious reception. Not only are Kenyans attracted to Nigerian music and film, their modern literature is taking over from the Chinua Achebes and Wole Soyinkas of yore.
No wonder Nyamai says Nigerians are “very pan-African” and she now gets business on her own without facilitation from the British partner who first introduced her to the market.
But that continent-wide thinking may also be working against Kenya’s in the East-West interaction that remains heavily imbalanced in the West Africans’ favour.
The growing social and cultural influence of Nigeria in Kenya is the natural precursor to full economic domination. Though China is investing millions of yuan in Kenya, it is the colourful folks from Africa’s West coast with their agbadas and distinct accents truly capturing the hearts and minds of Kenyans.
It is only a matter of time before the naira gains currency with the population here. The Nigerian colonisation of Kenya is here.
You might not recognise it just yet because it is wearing sunglasses and acting up."

Kenya go find your identity you seem to have lost it.

"If there's one thing that's unique about us Kenyans, it is that we're copycats.
We will embrace and promote everything foreign before we appreciate what is authentically ours. We only seem to claim people and things that do not belong to us, or have first been celebrated in international circles. Barack Obama and Micere Mugo are examples"
