Kenya Beats Nigeria in Stock-Trading for the First Time: Chart Paul Wallace PaulWallace123

[Nairoberry]

investors put more money into Kenyan stocks than Nigeria’s for the first time on record in September. The value of shares traded on Nigeria’s exchange fell to $139 million, near the lowest since Bloomberg began compiling such data in 2009, as foreign investors shunned an economy battered by militant attacks on oil facilities and shortages of foreign-exchange. In Kenya, with an economy an eighth the size of Nigeria’s but set to grow almost 6 percent this year, the value rose 4.2 percent from August to $152 million.

yes Kenya can catch up with sickly Nigeria whose economy is stagnant and is about to go to recession thanks to oil prices. if we can maintain 6 % growth over the years and start producing our own oil we are good. kenya is rising

 

[Dhuks]

I like your optimism, for Kenya to grow substantially however, the growth rate should be double what we have otherwise at 6% you are talking of vision 2050

True, economy growth must outstrip pop growth so we should be looking at kitu 12% + for real all round benefits

Nigeria tunasija, the gap shouldn't be a problem as long as we sustain the current trend, just the other day we were staggering at 4%, today we are cruising at 6.2%
Am damn sure if all goes well, we will be doubling in five years.
