The difference is what they are to tax!

This are the sources of income of our county governments https://www.epickenyan.com/sources-of-county-government-revenue-in-kenya/

.Bring out Nigeria's federal state sources of revenue!

forgiveness:


1. Who told you revenue is not collected twice in Nigeria?

2. Lagos state doesn't collect one Naira from the ports in Lagos rather the federal government does. No excuse for the unproductive 47 counties in Kenya.

3. That was how you people lied Kenya's counties have their own budgets. Liars.

Nairobi obviously generate the bulk of taxes but it's not allowed to collect a single tax.All taxes are collected by national gov.The counties are entitled to at least 15% allocation of previous year audited collectipns.National gov retain bulk of gov service including education, police service, name them.Our counties are not State.They way less powerful.So we can compare all revenues generated at all levels.

seriously I tried to make sense of what you wrote but its hard man,
so are you saying your government only generates its revenue from the income made from your counties, and that the counties can't use what they generated to furthering various counties projects except been granted permission by the head government.
if that is the case, their shouldn't be any reasons of comparing Nigeria with Kenya, as Nigeria will be able to fund various projects on states Level while Kenya counties can't?

Whichever way you argue, what matters is the total revenue collection by both countries in which Kenya collects more than Nigeria which is extremely embarrassing because Nigeria has 4 times more people than Kenya. It's like Rwanda or Burundi collecting more revenue than Kenya. All Nigerians should be ashamed of even commenting on this issue.

Jonraid:
Lagos population is at 23 million in 2018 not 17m.It is best to put it over 21m! Mombasa is at 1.2m-1.4m!

That makes it even sadder.

forgiveness:


Where did Lagos generates 20 times more than the whole Nigeria, huh?

If you were smart,I would explain. Unfortunately you're foolish.

what you guys fails to recognize is the fact Nigeria operates like a continent, they have their state capital's, all states care less on federal government on what they generates, they make and fund their budgets, they build state projects with their IRG some times external supports, they only get certain percentage of what federal government generates and allocate to them.

rvp20182,It seems that the SACCOS boom and the cap rate aren't banks main headache. It looks like Fintech is the real threat.Our banks should now be innovative going forward or else loose the edge they've been having.Anyway I think banks are here to stay but going forward they should be more smarter or risk becoming more and more obsolete.I personally can't remember the last time I withdrew cash via atm or bank tellers thanks to mobile money.Diversity,technology and regional expansion is what will keep Kenyan banks afloat in the future.Mobile money that was once a threat to the banking industry is now very much supported by banks.Banks moved in and now the mobile money system is intertwined with the banking system!

Fintech is also now looking to eat into the insurance industry,talk of Mtiba that has had success in the issuance of health insurance to Kenyans.Fintech will disrupt many sectors.I'm keen on seeing how this development will sprout about in the near future! Banks are now lending big to the government! The banking market has changed a bit it seems!

how about comparing both countries in this aspect ?

why should I take Kenyans serious knowing fully well that no counties can generates what a middle states in Nigeria get to generates .?

You federal gov collects measily 13b that Buhari is expected to ran Nigeria 200m.Our counties are not states.Most have population less than 1m..lamu has 100k people..Nairobi the populated has 4m people.

All these are useless as long as your total revenue collection is low. You can do a million subdivisions but your total revenue collection is still embarrassing, you could operate like a universe but that won't magical increase your revenue collection.

Youre in kenya 20yrs ago..Kenya is global leader in next gen finance..dont even get started.We are into lending not payments system.Mpesa integrate with so many global systems.

Comparing revenue collection from our counties to your state's is just misleading and ego-massaging to your side. We all know these are two different countries with different constitutions - unless you bring us a breakdown of which taxes your states are allowed to collect vis a vis the same that our counties are allowed to collect. Bring me the total revenue collection by your government (Federal government + states) and we can compare with Kenya's total (National government + counties) then we can talk.

Remove oil from nigeria revenue..90% of all revenues..and youre left revenues the size of rwanda..2/3 billion dollars.The country is a zoo.

He just doesn't get it!

Why don't you go through her posts and share your ideas instead of all these stupid empty threats? . Kenyan men are truly pathetic. The South African girl has bern on this thread for a long-time, ask taysermahiri and kikuyu1 who have interacted with her. So don't act like she needs to be introduced to something new, rather quote her directly with your " ideas" , so that when she logs in again she will see your challenge or invite . Welcome to Kenya in advance .
......Hahahahaha

Lol

I am here everyday. Kenyan men don't fear women, we embrace them. Tell her we are waiting.
