FACTS: Nigeria keep sending all the petro-dollars to US/UK/Australia to educate their sons- while Kenya has massively invested in their local universities and every year are sending fewer n fewer student abroad. Nigeria is the 15th leading place of origin for students coming to the United States. Last year's increase was up nearly 20 percent from the previous year. Nigeria replaced Kenya in 2007-2008 as the only African country in the top 20 places of origin, where it has remained. https://www.voanews.com/a/nigeria-sends-most-african-students-to-u-s/4009119.html In the meantime Strathmore University Kenya - student are using elevators 1 Like |

rvp2017: More phantom claims that he can't substantiate. Care to post FDI stats (not the attractiveness index which aren't hard numbers, but the actual quantity of FDI pouring into countries)? According to one of your most prominent news sites, the most recent figures I could see in 2016 had Kenya attracting less than 10% of Nigeria's FDI: https://www.nation.co.ke/business/Kenya-ranked-ninth-among-28-African-states-in-FDI/996-3386816-5k93pvz/index.html Even the likes of Ethiopia, DR Congo and Zambia vastly outperformed your paradise on earth. Since the massive recession, Nigeria has held several rounds of Euro bonds that were oversubscribed by over 400% to 800%. Your 8000% claims of your oversubscription are fabricated. The biggest over-subscription figure I've seen from your Euro bonds bids is 600%. Others hovered between 200% and 400%. We have considerable scope to expand our debt level massively if we choose to. Our limitations is a function of our own conservative fiscal policy and has nothing to do with anyone not lending us money. Just in the last few days, our National Assembly rejected the $350m World Bank granted loan sought by one of the states in the country. 1 Like |

I bet all that FDI is just to extract more oil. Nothing outside the oil industry. And you know how that story ends. As for Eurobond - and other loans - why would any sane person lend Nigeria - what will you repay with? You have messily 36B(including state budget) for 200M people. You can even have GDP to DEBT ratio of 0% - but REVENUES - what will you repay with? Not kola nuts maybe you can give someone an oil field Kenya this year issued $2B eurobond - and they were offered $14B . I see Nigeria the 500B giant is struggling to issue 1B dollar euro-bond - at best $3B. Like really? Are you guys for real! Obi1kenobi: 3 Likes 1 Share |

No one is saying that Kenya is the best in Africa or the world! But I would choose to live in Tanzania over Nigeria never mind SA,Egypt or Morocco !Nigeria might have a bigger GDP but i would say Ghana is more organised and a much more better place to live than Nigeria! 4 Likes 1 Share |

Actually World Bank has some sense of humour. And your parliament really fell line, hook and sinker. You were looking for what $350MILLION loan. - Why can't mega nigerian banks loan that? But seriously why would you even talk about 350M dollars in your parliament! Breaking news! 500B dollar economy denied 350M dollar loan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - seriously that is small loan that can be issued to small company! Not even enough to gather for facility fee!

rvp2017: You have serious comprehension issues. One of the 36 states in the country and hardly one of the richer ones, were granted a $350m loan by World Bank, but the National Assembly scuppered it. It's not a Federal loan. Seems Kenyan education didn't do much for you. 1 Like 1 Share |

Who is fooling who? Who exactly are the fools? This are questions hanging from the lips of this poet while describing the youths of this present day world... African politicians seem to have gotten the key to their hearts thereby opening and closing it at will; They seem to be the dictator of their actions, all thanks to stipends/peanuts dished at sequences. Our youths need to wake up to this asylum we subjecting ourselves to. This act kills the venom of promising youths thereby giving more room to those pot-bellied politicians to terrorize the masses. This is a call to action to all African youths. Poet Jay from Kenya voices out... Listen! http://www.whykeanthology.com/2018/04/brain-washed-generation.html Proudly Whyke. |
