An average south african

Shma:
so going by your blog.
50k of the population are children, do you think parents are more than that?
Even if you add the 'others population' do you think it can reach 700k..
Dude, arguing with facts abeg

Never get tired of lying stupid rvp?

Danielnino00:


That was it..

Mzal3ndo:

What criterias would you use to come to the conclusion that some one in South Africa is average because to properly compare we have to standardize the parameters, so please tell me, what parameters do you use to term someone as average in South Africa.

jln115:
well by your own logic his crumbs are 3 times more than you earn1

So what does that make you?

Danielnino00:


I'm dropping you the facts from the United Nations human habitant, the world economic forum, the US government and numerous NGOs that have been to Kibera..

Your only source is what your government told you..
How accurate is data collection in Kenya ?

Shma:
cropping ugly part won't save you.
Just post it the way it is

Danielnino00:

Cool story...

A graduate of the university of Lagos and University of Ibadan was the Vice chancellor of your country's biggest university

Nigga, Kenya has 47 counties, how many of these counties can be regarded as averagely developed? and if u remove the 5Km2 CBDs in Nairobi, Nakuru and Mombasa what you get is a fool blown slums. Kenyans should fckng Keep shut when slums are mentioned,

Shma:
Do i know you?.
I don't really like quoting stranger characters.
But I can leave you with this.

Do you know how much I make in a day despite being a college dropout..... I bet that I make more mulla than most of the graduates in here including you

College for me was just but a waste of time. So when that idiot Austine tells me that he's studying in most prestigious uni in the south of Sahara, I laugh him off because I know where's he gonna end up.

always bust them for their lies

Shma:
enlighten yourself.

[b]12Although our final result is far from the 1 million inhabitants, it is corroborated by other sources. UN-HABITAT did their estimation on the basis of a survey led by Research International in 2004. This survey found that the average household size was 5 persons and displayed an estimation of 400,000 to 700,000 people (Research International, 2005). Our survey has revealed that there is an average of 3.2 persons per households.

13In order to validate our final results, we compared them with other figures from different sources. Stephano Maurras (Map Kibera, 2008), an independent researcher, conducted a similar survey in May 2008, seeking for a credible figure of the Kibera population. He chose one village, (Kianda), for a door-to-door survey and extrapolated the number of dwellers to the whole of Kibera and his estimation of this population is 252,500 residents. If we base our calculation on the estimated figure of Kianda village, meaning an extrapolation of Kianda population, the estimation of the population is 271,319 inhabitants in Kibera. This method may give a higher result because Kianda was found to be one of the most densely populated villages (Figure 3). The Mapping Kibera Project survey corroborates the results of the Keyobs-IFRA survey as its findings are within the same range. Carolina for Kibera used approximately 90% of Gatwekera village in their longitudinal study; we added 10% to their results and found a very slight difference with ours (Table 2).

Table 2: Comparative Sources on Kibera Population

Village Name Other Sources’ Population Estimation IFRA Estimation
Kibera 252,500 (Map Kibera, 2008) 204,473
Gatwekera 24,402 (CFK) 24,666
Source: Carolina for Kibera (CFK) and Map Kibera, 2008.

14The combination of GIS and a ground survey is relevant for an estimation of the population of an informal settlement, although this methodology has its limits. The satellite image has a resolution of 0.6 m, which is not precise enough for the digitalization (design) of the buildings. While beginning the ground survey, we realized that the map was sometimes not accurate; trees hid houses, open spaces where designed as buildings and some buildings were not accurately shaped. Another challenge experienced in locating the right structure on the ground. The surveyors were sometimes tempted to choose a random structure when the one they were supposed to find was unreachable. Whenever the results were found inaccurate (a large structure with few people), investigations were repeated. Indeed, the figure of 205,000 dwellers in Kibera is much less than expected. Although a much higher figure was expected, the IFRA-Keyobs’ results are corroborated by other sources.

Who are the People Living in Kibera?
3 Kikuyus and Kambas are two different ethnic groups in Kenya.
15Also a subject of fantasy, the inhabitants of this informal settlement are often described, in the NGO and media discourse, as young and jobless. On NGO websites, statistics are given without any supporting sources and they are often alarmist about the socio-economic status of Kibera’s dwellers. As proven by the preceding field results, the average household consists of 3.2 persons which is lower than expected, going by research international’s findings of an average of five people per household. These findings could be explained by the high rate of single persons in the eastern part of Kibera (figure 4), where the average household size is less than 3 people. The 2007–8 post-election violence (PEV) might have played a role. Laini saba is a village from which a lot of Kikuyus and Kambas3 fled during that period of violence; this might also explain the high rates of single persons[/b]

Don't be decieved by those satellite view nigro. on ground we have already established your cities are slumbolish.
We may have less Buldings due to population demand but our Buldings are far much better than those in your zoo.

how many of your counties would u class as "Averagely Developed" outside the Nairobi,Nakuru,Mombasa,Kisumu CBDs?

Danielnino00:


There is nothing enlightening here..

It is 2020 and Kibera is still holding the title of Africa's biggest slum...

Shma:
all the 47 counties.

Mzal3ndo:

You said average SA is wealthier than an average TZ and i ask how do you define average? With a white collar job? College educated? Living about the poverty line?
Do I need to teach you English?

68816419:

Very Impressive CV I must confess,one of the very few Kenyans i respect, the old man seems to enjoy Lagos so much to an extend of returning became even when he became a Registrar in Renal Transplant and Urology units in 1983 at Royal Postgraduate Medical School Hammersmith Hospital, London

Shma:

That list is bs, they just traced progressing countries like Kenya and SA then pin that title to drag us behind but when facts redirects us to the drawing board with the support of evidence on ground, Nigeria will automatically be holding the world five biggest slums in the world.

Shma:
you didn't read your screenshort well.
It says he was a medical practitioner in Lagos school of anatomy.
When he was performing his work for those igbos, he was staying at a nearby residential area for medical staffs.
He then started lecturing your yorubas and igbos in those school of medicine.

Danielnino00:


We educated him...
He was a scholarship student at UNILAG

He did his internship at LUTH.
