BeforeJuly:

brozay you seem not to grasp a thing in this argument.
what is the depreciation rate of the dollar to cedi?

do you know what it means for your currency to have depreciated at this extreme rate since 2007 when it was just re-denominated?

do you even know the future of the cedi?
it's on a continuous downward trajectory.

you must be kidding fam.

I'll let this die here after this. no time for this back and forth.

samorobo:


Shut up Kenya is a failed state .it funny to see how you pride yourself over hosting refugees from war torn shiithole....I am not trusting you, Kenya is a fradulent joke of a failed state..live with that and avoid your delusions

BeforeJuly:

ok I'll put it in the simplest of terms cos I see you're rearing to go.

GDP is obviously the value of all goods and services produced within the borders of a State right? ok cool.

Kenya's GDP >>> $89bn (pop. 51m)
Lagos GDP >>> $130bn (pop. 20m)

does this shorten your understanding curve?

Samorobo2:


Oh shut up and honour to gullible Kenyans or better still feed that to Adhoboy....
This is a permanent building, built with concrete and keep expanding...Guess what, it is a slum in Nairobi...A legal integrated slumpolis.....
As a nairobian you either live in Westland(parkland, south b ,south C, and killimani included)Karen,CBD, upperhill,Langata or you live in places like this or Roysambu, Eastleigh, Zimmerman...and worse off you end up in kibera, . Mathare, kwangware.

Kenya Houses the Largest IDP Camps in Africa & borders one of the most dangerous countries in Africa but still allow them to coexist in Kenya.

When Nairobi is Bombed by extremists from Somalia Kenyans don't go killing Somalis.

We've got one of the Most diverse African Population. We've also got Nigerians & a Nigerian neighborhood called Roysambu.

jln115:
Lagos gdp isn't $130bn

Abohboy:


I’m pretty sure it is and if it isn’t it is at best 96 billion dollars, no lower than that otherwise your lying

Abohboy:

jln115:
give me a source which states its 130 billion then I'll believe you..... But sources at hand put Lagos state gdp at 96 billion as you said

rvp2018:
It has to be higher than Kenya; Slumpolis need to massage it's huge ego.

rvp2018:
So Nigeria claims to have 50% of it's population living in urban areas. That is 100M people. Lagos unofficially host 20m (officially census only counted 8M their last census). Those who actually voted in last presidential election were less than 2m...less than Nairobi voters.

Now how can rest of Nigeria faked GDP of 400B - hosting 80M urban nigeria - be worth way less than Lagos Slumpolis.

And there is nothing "special" that Lagos has - compared to other Nigeria cities and towns. It all the same urban sprawl of low key integrated mixed housing .

Abohboy:

Shut up.

Abohboy:


Really, your nonsensical rants do nothing for anyone the last presidential election there were 27 million votes in total, but it had the lowest turnout ever in history of Nigeria. So why do you expect the number To be big I’m not sure what your trying to say, but Lagos is not like other cities in Nigeria, it has ports, headquarters of lots of companies the largest airport in Nigeria, soon to have the largest rice mill in Africa as well. Whatever your trying to say make it make sense.

jln115:

Bro your Country is a sh1thole that can barely compare with Lagos............ [s]yet you want to lecture us, saying we are Zim waiting to happen? Bro our constitution is one of the best in the world, our economy is diverse, our Banking sector is as solid as a rock, our reserve bank is independent and doing exactly what it should, the JSE is growing every year............Regardless of what you think SA is never going to end up like Zim!

Also Government is failing to create jobs and to grow the economy.........kicking out Whites is only going to cause more poverty as now more people are going to be without jobs....the role of a Government is to protect all its citizens, not just one racial group!!

And great Kenya kicked out Whites and Indians.....and guess what, its a massive sh1thole, compared to SA where Black SAns are earning 5 times more than Kenyans are[/s]

rvp2018:
27M voted nationally. In Kenya 19M I think voted. Our population is 47m - and yours nearly 200m. Nairobi county had about 2m votes. Lagos state 1.1m. Your Lagos governor got less votes than Nigeria governor.

Stop cooking figures.

Now talking of largest port - Mombasa has bigger port than two ports of Lagos. Nairobi JKIA handle more passengers and aircraft that Lagos airport.

None of them claim to be 100B GDP based on that alone.

What does Lagos generate? It's manufacturing sector is nothing to write home about?

Abohboy:

I’m not going to argue with you about any of this, Lagos produces a lot of things through it’s manufacturing sector cars, plastic bags, plastic cups, phones, smart cards, ID cards, credit cards, shoes, slippers, juice, chocolate, you name it. And it’s not like other Nigerian states don’t produce anything, akwa ibom State has a gdp of 13 billion dollars, and they have the largest coconut oil refinery in Africa, largest syringe factory in Africa, one of the largest electricity meter factories in Africa and one of the largest plywood factories in Africa as well. And as soon as they build their port which will be larger than Mombasa port, their gdp could grow even larger. But of course you will just say wet dreams so this is just a waste time.

jln115:
so kikuyu1 was wrong when he said Europeans are Neanderthal descendants ?

Justnotyou:


Well he cited his sources on the effects of those Neanderthal genes... Which won't be wrong as they've been linked to cause a number of disorders but still they imparted a good number of advantages for example, lightskin & a relatively thicker blood which allowed you guys to survive the northern winter.

Justnotyou:


Remember this?

Fair enough..........but was I wrong though? Lagos does have a bigger GDP than Kenya.

They mostly compare their respective ppp's to kenyas nominal gdp & spit all over our faces with their ignorance. Even guateng in 2020 doesn't have a higher gdp compared to Kenya's GDP.

jln115:
Gdp of Kenya is $89 Billion and Lagos state over $90billion........

Ok then so if Europeans have Neanderthal genes and East Africans have 25% European genes doesn't that mean Kikuyus(who are E.African) also have Neanderthal genes?

We don't appear to be doing well - we are doing well - pictures and videos speak for themselves. That is why we buried Nigeria long time ago. You cannot compete with our cities and of course our rural areas. Our slums are better than your slums because they at least have basic amenities.
