From your stats website - it's 40% - and I have gone ahead to read quartely GDP -and it's oscilliate btw 20-25% - which is very huge - now around 100B dollars - or 150 dollars at it apex. Your agriculture is truly admirable. Brazil can learn a lot from You. The US with world biggest agri sector is merely 180B dollars.

Of course we know this is horse manure from Nigeria.

Where do you get your data from? If oil accounts for 10% of our gdp , services account for 40%, and industry accounts for around 30, how then can agriculture account for 40%?You are a disgrace to Kenyan education.

I am very happy for them - profit of 20K dollars smiley after six years - what did they sell - some asset? must be an exceptional item on their P&L. Nigerians cannot hack in Kenya. If South African can't or Europe companies..please try somewhere else.

Actually they made profit after hiring a Kenyan. You can't bring nollywood entertainment nigerian and expect to hack it in Kenya - a very competitive industry.

To beginning with the hiring of its first Kenyan Chief Executive Officer Isaac Mwige.

UBA Kenya, a subsidiary of UBA Nigeria already is making profits and growing. It's a small first step but I trust Nigerians, we will continue to prise open Kenya's pretty but stubborn legs until we dominate your banking sector. You should have a healthy fear of us.

It's a small step but we will continue to open Kenya's pretty thighs. At least now you agree the Nigerian banks are making profits.

You got to be innovative to survive the brutal kenyan market. That kenyan CEO is betting on mobile money. UBA will make money. Sometimes I feel bad for these Nigerian banks..they came and bought small banks for a lot of money..and then huge losses for so long. It like a rip-off. But as you try to enter Kenya - we are slowly working towards Nigeria..Congo and Ethiopia are the next frontier..and watch what our banks are doing in mobile banking in TZ, UG and other...learning from kenya. The future of banking is being written in Kenya.

Just imagine when we enter Nigeria with mobile money & commerce - it will happen. Just watch. Safaricom was hobbled by Vodafone -so they took M-PESA and staff and tried to make money from it worldwide- but our Kenyan banks don't have big foreign investors.

Their insignificant size,economy and otherwise is what annoys them so much. Their women are going blind watching nollywood and the men are here on nairaland, another Nigerian entertainment and info brand.
I am just surprised.

I can't count how many articles from Kenya I have read about how Nigerians are economically and culturally colonising them.

I wonder where these ones pop out from.

Nigerian economically and culturally colonizing us. That is joke. Nollywood movies are popular with house girls and such poorly educated kenyans. As regard economy - there are 4 nigerian companies that are the butt of jokes in Nairobi - 3 banks - who came and bought bankrupt banks - and have never made profit ever since ---UBA okay finally made 8 M naira. You don't want to know how much they have invested smiley and the other one...Hellios..it top all...the frenchies orange sold them a thud smiley and they are loosing so much money I weep for them.

If south africans can't hack Kenya - why would a nigerian bank think they can - Dangote is still trying to figure out an entry!

First build capacity by kicking out south africans in Nigeria before entering Kenya. Try Uganda or Congo or Somalia first.

That's why your banks can't make it in Nigeria! They are damn too small. On the other hand Nigerian banks are already eating your lunch in east Africa. I recommend a book for you: Barbarians At The Door. We are already at your door.

We can merge our banks and have half the banks - but what for. Our banks are not small.We've gone thro this again and again. KCB Group and Equity Bank Group - are in top 25 African banks - and only 5 Nigerian banks are better than them - and not for long - because our banks are growing at some of world fastest growth rate 15-25% per annum - KCB will definitely overtake 4 of your banks in 2-3 yrs. Only Zenith will take longer.

Kenya's Oscar award winning actress Lupita Nyongo is making more money than entire nollywood from black panter - and here you're shouting entertainment and Cinemas smiley. I think her share of now 1.3B dollars from black panter will eclipse all your third rate Naija movies.

Dangote then Banks then GDP then Entertainment - Nigerians grin so predictable - there is basically nothing in the country except pea nuts.



idiot she is in Hollywood, Hollywood is a worldwide industry anybody that is famous there will be famous in d whole world .

We are not burning money like Nigeria banks. Our kenyan banks every year are amongst the most profitable big banks. KCB will definitely beat your top 4 banks in 2-3 yrs. The gap btw it and Access Bank - is so small - KCB will do it this year probably.

And Commercial Bank of Africa(Kenyan bank owned by Kenyattas) are already in Ivory Coast grin grin. Equity Bank are making the Congolese dance to their Lingala in their banking hall smiley And they are not making losses like Nigerians.

I can only imagine what will happen when Nigerian CBN reverse it decision on mobile money and allows telcoms (MTN) to play with the banks..CBA and kenyan banks....will come and save poor Nigerians from the corruption in there.

Poor Nigeria
Here Buhari's federal budget on education - Naira 600B - or 1.7B dollars --for 200M people. And Kenya is spending $ 4.2B in education. The giant is spending $1.7B and the dwarf $4.2B - and you wonder why Nigerians are illiterate and think vodooism aka nollywood is development.

Nigeria - the fulani herdman Buhari - unveil 1.7B dollar budget

This is what many Nigerians also try to tell some ignorant people on Skyscrapers.com and other internet platforms.
Who needs mpesa, when we have some mobile banking apps too, it's nothing new.
Besides oil, Nigeria is strong in finance and banking, with great potential. There is also tech, fashion and entertainment.

Your data is always crooked like data from Kenya Bureau of Statistics. Value of US agriculture is way beyond $180billion. In fact value of it's crop and livestock alone is about $400bn not to talk of forestry and others. See chart below from US department of agriculture.

Their companies are too small to compete in Ghana not to talk of Nigeria. I think that's what pisses them off. Their insignificance. Of course they will like to play a bigger role in Africa but unfortunately, the size of their economy limits them. They seriously need to build their $50bn economy or countries like Tanzania and Ethiopia will elbow them aside in East Africa. Tusker ko Hustler ni.
