Hati13:

First, Ethiopia isn't a small country either in terms of population or territory. Ethiopia has 102,000,000 population and it's territory is greater than Nigeria.
Ethiopia - 1,103,000 square Kilometers
Nigeria - 900,000 square Kilometers

Second, Ethiopia infrastructures aren't better than Nigeria. Our national carrier is great like you mentioned. Most of our cities are dirty as dirty can get.

Third, Nairobi isn't a country. It's capital city of Kenya.

Fourth, Tanzania isn't a small country.

I will never dispute with what you said cos it is very correct. The kind of islam Danfodio promoted in the core-north was a very destructive one n the negative effects are seen today.

**** The core-northern leaders themselves r now seeing the negative effects of their stupidity n extremism n are trying to educate their people massively like you see in Gombe n Kebbi states. Some still want to continue keeping their people in backwardness like Zamfara state. Buh there was a recent conference of northern governors n leaders on how to revolutionize education in the north. I hope it yields positively.

I totally disagree with you abt d Usman Dan fodio form of Islam been radical here... I have already corrected fresh on dat. The Usman Dan fodio Islam is what most yorubas practice today.

But then again our main language is African, not English, like you guys who are so cultured. Checkmate

In Nigeria, there are 3 main regional languages. I'm sure if I go to Kenya, I'll hear more Swahili than English likewise if you go to Nigeria, you'll hear the regional languages than you would English. In Nigeria, the National news are broadcasted in Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa and English. Even an int. org BBC recognize this, that's why they've officially list Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo, and Pidgin as their broadcast languages. What other African countries has 4 of its languages added to BBC?

Hati13:

After the rise of Islam in Arabia, Axumites were driven out from Yemen and the coast areas of Eritrea. Even if most of the population in Yemen and coast areas of Eritrea converted to Muslim, because of the the high altitude of southern Eritrea and northern & central Ethiopia, Islam failed to penetrate deep down in that region.

Islam eventually penetrated deep down to Ethiopia from the port of Zelia(in costal Somalia area). Using trade as a means, most of the population in Somalia and eastern and some part of central Ethiopia were converted to Muslim by Arabs. A Dynasty called Makhzumite came to Ethiopia from Southern Yemen and established the 1st Muslim state in Ethiopia at Shewa. They are referred Sultanate of Shewa. Not all of Shewa was occupied by this Sultanate. Amharas were still present in northern Shewa. Later, a Sultanate called Ifat defeated Sultanate of Shewa and occupied it. And later an Abyssinia Atse(emperor) called Amde Seyon conquered them and much of the inhabitants changed to Christian, but the eastern Ethiopia remained Muslim. Axumites descendants Hararis became Muslim and through time, some population of Hararis migrated to Gurage and mixed with some of them. Because of this, some Gurages became Muslim. Some remained Christian and still are.


Ahmed Gragn of Adal(Somalia, Harari and Afar) conquered much of Abyssinia from 1531-43) with the help of Ottoman Turks. They destroyed many historical churches, books and architectural achievements. Some of them settled in some parts of Abyssinia territories and the population were either forced to convert to Muslim or massacred. But in 1543, Portuguese help came and rescued Abyssinia from turning to a Muslim state. Some of the convert Muslim Amharas and Tigrays and Muslim Adals remained Muslim in those areas.

After the Yejju, Wello and Rayy Oromos migrated to Bete Amhara and southern Tigray in 17th century, most of them changed to Islam because of Muslim that stayed there after the liberation of Abyssinia from Adal. Now, most of them had either become Muslim Amharas and Tigrays. There are also Argobba(Semitic speakers) Muslims in Amhara region.


My best guess is:-
Tigrays: 20-25%
Amharas: 25-30%
• Most of Muslim Amharas are found in south Wello and western Gondar(Ethio-Sudan border).


The Oromos first worshipped their own God before there migration. After the migration, those who bordered Christian changed to Christianity and those who bordered Muslims changed to Muslim. Some of them remained with their traditional beliefs. In 1878, Atse Yohannes IV ordered Muslims in Abyssinia either to convert to Christian or denounce their property. Some of the Wello Oromo changed to Christianity and those that didn't, migrated to either Ethio-Sudan border or southern Ethiopia. This process further strengthen after the expansion of Atse Menelik to SW, S and SE of Abyssinia, where most of the non Christian Oromos and other peoples in those areas converted to Christianity.


I don't even know if this kind of thing had happened. But if it had happened, it could be during Menelik and Haile Selassie reigns, since Protestant was introduced in Ethiopia during the 19th century.

After the coming of the current Gov't, I don't think it had happened till since.

I'm not sure, but about 5-10%.

I'm just wondering, I've noticed that the rate of adherents of Ethiopia Tawedo Orthodoxy has declined with an upsurge in Pentay adherents looking at the census data.

I've noticed a lot of the upsurge in Pentay and noticeable decline in Orthodoxy can be attributed to the Oromia region. Do you think this has to do with some resentment among the Oromo community due the association of the Orthodox church with Habesha if the church is actually associated with Habesha in Ethiopia since I don't really know the situation. I just want your view on this matter and I'll appreciate your feedback.

freshest4live:

Actually the first idea of independence for Africa to be conceived by a black man was from Herbert Macaulay, a Nigerian who influenced Nnamdi Azikiwe of Nigeria and Nkrumah of Ghana.
You are right though there was the division as the Northerners had some arguements and refused to sign for independence and it was delayed for another four years else we should have gained independence before Ghana.

That was so cold what the northerners did... It's a high time Nigerians start working towards breaking this hatred and realize Nigeria will never be thesame if they they separate..

One day Africa will live and Trade as one country same like the U.S and E.U. Time may not be right now but it will surely come to pass.

All your tribes are either muslim or christian. Now, tell me how you beat our Samburu who still practice their ancient rights

Kenya has culture just like Nigeria, so I am not here to argue that. I have heard if the Samburu before especially a few years back for the creation of all female village called Umoja. The truth is, there are a lot ethnic groups in Nigeria and Western Africa alike who predominantly practice their native religions. For example, there is a cultural region in parts of NE Nigeria and Northern Cameroon known as Kirdi with dozens of ethnic groups who adhere to their native ethnic religions. In fact, the word Kirdi means Pagan in Fulani because when the Muslim Toroobe Fulani settled in the region and attempted to convert the locals, they were very resistant to their Jihad.

Also, there are many ethnic groups in Nigeria like Hausa or Igbo who are predominantly Christian or Muslim, However there are also many who are mixed in terms of religion like Yoruba, Igala, Etsako, Gbagyi, etc. Even among the Hausa and Igbos, you can till find notable indigenous element like Maguzawa or Odinani respectively.

Similarly in Kenya, you have ethnic groups that are predominantly Muslim like Somali or Swahili and ethnic groups that are majority Christian like the Kikuyu. You can also find those who are mixed like Oromo and those that are majority traditional adherents like the Samburu.

In health, as far back as 2003, University of ibadan college of health had already separated conjoined twin, University of maiduguri did it in 2011,University of Nigeria did it almost 4 times,

So Nigeria have done it, before Kenya thought of doing it

What was the nature of conjoining? Kenya has been separating conjoined twins for years but last year's case was special in that the two girls shared vital parts of their bodies and it was a first one in Africa outside SA. Only SA has done that. Took 23 hours to complete.

Hmmm, ok

So, do Oromos in and around Adis also learn Amharagn as a subject in school or are they taught in the language?

If the school is in Addis, then those Oromos will learn all subjects until 6 Grade using Amhargn and also take independent Amhargn and English subject.

Nowenuse:
Cos Amharanization has been over a long time, how come the current generation of Oromo are still speaking amharagn?

Amharanizition process through Ethiopia is only 90-100 years, so it isn't that long.

Since Amhargn is a basic need to interact with other ethnicities and engage in Addis and other cities, some Oromos and other peoples known Amhargn. They speak their respective languages when they are in their region and with their fellow same ethnic group.

Most of the people in rural areas in all corners of the country don't know Amhargn very much, because they mostly interact with their fellow ethnic groups.

Nowenuse:
How do these Oromos manage to balance billingualism?

Some of them may use Amhargn for public purposes with other ethnicities and Oromo language during with those who know it. Others may only use Oromo language if they live in rural areas. I've came across with some Oromos in rural areas who know not even a single Amhargn word.

Nowenuse:
Also, what language is used in the Ethiopian central parliament by lawmakers and politicians from all round the country from different ethnic groups?

The official language of the Federal Gov't is Amhargn.

Nowenuse:
I have also wondered how come Oromos became the majority ethnic group in spite of the Amharanization process.

What I mainly meant by Amharanizition process is promoting Amhara culture in the re-conquered areas and becoming it the official culture of Ethiopia. If a person with other backgrounds want to be a student, go to Hospital, want to be a Christian, go to court or employed in Gov't and Military, he/she must speak Amhargn. Those that want to be identified as an Amhara can join, but majority of the Oromos and others refused. The Amharas saw them inferior if they aren't Amharas, but they weren't forced to be Amhara.

And also, since the Amhara domination did only last for 90-100 in all Ethiopia, many Oromos and others didn't lost their identities and those who lost are trying to regain it.

http://www.capitalfm.co.ke/news/2016/11/conjoined-twin-girls-survive-groundbreaking-surgery-in-sub-saharan-first/

To you this is groundbreaking, but to Nigeria it is not new,

Nigeria have done this as far back as 1972 in university of ibadan, before Africa got accustomed to the Internet,

It took Kenya about almost 50 doctors to perform this, for about 23 hours and you don't want us to hear a word, when that of University of maiduguri performed same feet for just 12 hours by a couple of doctors in 2011,
Did you see Nigerians jumping like monkeys in the safari?


Mind you the twins shared vital organs too including liver, intestines, and so on,

As a matter of fact apart from this being done in 1972 in ibadan,

Other institutions in enugu, Lagos, etc have done these feet,


In health Nigeria beats Kenya hands down



https://www.dailytrust.com.ng/sunday/index.php/feature/3134-inside-unimaids-breakthrough-with-conjoined-twins-surgery


Initially, there were rumours in the town that only one of the twins would survive because of the complexity of the situation.But after meticulous team work and endless prayers from well-wishers, the process turned out to be a huge success.Probably that was why all the doctors were elated, including dozens of medical students who watched the “miracle” via a television.
“We have succeeded in separating the two male conjoined twins,” the lead surgeon, Dr Auwal Abubakar said to us.
According to him, “in medical terms, we call their situation iskiophagus (joined at the pelvis). This type of conjunction is the most complex, because their lives were conjoined. Both of them have a small intestine, but shared one single large intestine,” Dr Abubakar said.
“We are grateful to God for making this possible…we are really grateful,” he said, admitting that the credit goes to many people.
According to him “This is not only pediatric surgery, it is a team work. We had pre - surgery conferences together with other specialists, and discussed several investigations. Apart from the liver that was conjoined, we had predicted almost all the abnormalities we found in the babies.
“Plastic and reconstructive surgeons played vital roles in reconstruction. Orthopedic surgeons helped us in separating the bones, theatre nurses also assisted in their own field. anathesialogist kept the babies alive and asleep for close to thirteen hours. Our engineers in the hospital contributed immensely, because they placed us on generator and we didn’t have power failure,” Dr Auwal remaked.
He also gave credit to the medical students in the hospital. “About nine of them donated the blood facilityused for the operation.”
He said the operation took a long time because of the complications inherent in the systems of the babies. “We had to divide the large intestine into two… we also separated the intestine of the first baby, and joined it with the distal part of the bowel that goes into the anus. We then used the other half of the large intestine to construct an anus for the second baby. The process was really complicated,” the surgeon added.
He said as a result of the amendments made in the body of the twins, one of the three legs which they were delivered with, had been severed and they would now have one leg each, and that one of them will grow up as a female.
“The two babies shared a single male external genital; as such we left the genital to one of them, because it is much easier to construct a female external genital than that of male. We have actually explained this to the parents, and we are going to raise one of the babies as a female,” he said.
Asked whether Hussain whose name will be changed to Hussaina (female) will give birth later in life, Dr Auwal said no. “She will function normally, but will not reproduce, because there are no reproductive organs, we have removed the testicles.”
He said the children will be kept in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for convalescence. “This is not the last procedure of the operation. We would have to do other things to tidy up other problems. We would much later go into the phase of rehabilitation, like getting them an artificial limb,” he said.
He said this is the second time that this type of operation was done in Nigeria. “The first was in Ibadan in 1972, but the conjoined twins had four legs. Many other pediatric centers in Zaria, Ibadan, Ife, Enugu and other places, had separated other types of conjoined twins, but this is the second time that this particular type has been done,” Dr Auwal revealed.
Asked about the factors responsible for giving birth to conjoined twins, Dr Auwal smiled. “Well, nobody will really tell you the cause of giving birth to conjoined twins, but the case is more common in Africa and Asia. Usually when you have twins, they split into two during their formation, but this one did not.”
“It was one of our students who was then in Ningi that saw the mother with the children, and recognized the deformity early. He immediately referred them to us and contacted me for discussion.
“We deliberately delayed the operation because the chance of survival if you separate them testicles early is 20 per cent and if done it at that (about one year old) they have 80 per cent chance of survival. This is because, if the conjoined twins are bigger, they would be able to tolerate the anesthesia better, and will stand post operation stress. Their tissues would be bigger, and you will be able to identify them much easier,” Dr Auwal said.
He praised the management of the hospital for giving all the desired support. “The management of UMTH had waived all the medical bills of the twins because of the status of the parents. There is no way they could foot the bills of the operation, including all the tests and examinations,” he said.
Dr Auwal said the efforts put in by all who took part in the operation will not be in vain. “We think they have good chances of survival even though this is not the last of the procedures of the operation. We would have to do other things to tidy up other problems, because…there similar reported cases around the world and the children are doing very well,” he said.
He assured that if given the necessary support, doctors at the hospital have the potentials of doing even more complex operations in the future.
Binta, the mother of the twins, said the separation of the twins was the greatest thing that happened to her, and expressed gratitude to God. “When they were ‘gummed’ together, managing their life was very difficult. They had only one anus and you cannot tell who wants to excrete.
“Sometimes one will like to sleep and the other might not be in the mood to sleep. I therefore have to cajole all of them to sleep…it was really an experience that I will live to remember,” she said.
Binta said she had given birth five times and had never gone to hospital for ante natal care. “I gave birth to all of them at home, through the help of local birth attendants,” she said.
Her husband, Isa, said he never thought his twins will have a semblance of normal life. “As a poor man, it was really, very tasking taking care of the twins. The only big support we got was from a former chairman of Ningi local government area, who gave us N50,000 to buy food for the kids,” he said.
Isa said since that time, there was no tangible financial assistance, and therefore called on well meaning Nigerians to help them.
“The parents really need help because they would remain in the hospital with the separated twins for some time, and you know what this means,” a nurse at UMTH observed.
For me, the adventure at the operation theatre was a worthwhile and unforgettable experience. We watched and took pictures as doctors pierced and stitched the babies. “Today, you too (journalists) are honorary doctors,” one of the surgeons humoured as we walked out of the operation theatre.
Two days after the operation, the same doctor called and joyfully remarked “The twins are in stable condition, we are pleased with what is happening,” he said.

Guy forget this topic and go sort it out with world bank and lMF, since you know better. You should be given an award for discovering something the economic bodies of the world are ignorant of because they are so foolish. [/b]I told you am done with this boring arguement that goes against the current facts on ground. If you can prove your case to the lMF and the stats all over the world changes, then l'll start taking you seriously, for now you are just blabbing because [b]neither you or osibanjo works in the finance sector of Nigeria, neither are you guys amongst the lMF and the world economic bodies that verifies the data on ground for all nations.

Dude, remember the phrase,'consumption data?' We've talked about this before and its implications on REAL GDP. With that in mind lets look at Pakistan. Its been found out their GDP is at least 25% larger than stated due to consumption data;we can't escape that phrase!!

Should we have to wait that long; is there a way of coming up with an order of magnitude about the size of the Pakistani economy? My view is that this could be done by using consumption data to roughly estimate the economy’s size. Good quality data are available on some of what the economy uses to produce the final product...We know how much cement and steel are used, how much petrol and diesel are burnt every year, the quantities of food grains people consume. Converting these data into consumption per head of the population for these critical inputs would provide us with a number of coefficients that could be compared with those of the countries that are similarly situated as Pakistan.

https://tribune.com.pk/story/1346902/real-size-pakistans-gross-domestic-product/

Its not complicated;its an easy read even for moderately intelligent mid level school goers.

Now,if for example our oil consumption per capita is 110 barrels,yours 93. We're still not a producer like you guys,as you know.

http://world.bymap.org/OilConsumption.html

Your sugar consumption is 1.6 mn for 180 mn. Ours is 800k for 45 mn. You outnumber us 4 times. Per capita Kenyan sugar consumption yearly is 18 kg while yours is an unbelievable half at only 9kg -HOWW?!

Abuja – Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Mr Okechukwu Enelamah, says more than 1.6 million metric tons of sugar is consumed in Nigeria annually.

Enelamah, who said this at a news conference in Abuja on Tuesday, said that most of the currently available in the country were imported.

http://sundiatapost.com/2017/01/31/nigeria-consumes-1-6m-tons-of-sugar-annually-enelamah/

I could go on with cement but really,nigga,if you must insist your GDP per capita is truly 5800$ then ours is twice the official figure at 7200$.
