NEVER let your printer know you’ve waited until the last minute and you’re in a hurry, because it can sense fear.

Why has Kenyan public policy become so cynical? It's never, 'to flourish & advance society', but to, 'deter, desist, control, limit'....

[Eric Kigada @EricKigada]

This thread is about how Kenya got to start talking about getting nuclear energy.

This is also a direct reply to Ferdinand Omondi who has been peddling misinformation about nuclear energy.

When someone tells you something can't be done, remember there's a sign at NASA that says:
Aerodynamically, a bee's body is not made to fly, but bees don't know that. 🐝

Did you know that half of Africa’s GDP comes from just five countries?

These countries are South Africa, Egypt, Algeria, Nigeria, and Ethiopia.

They have a combined GDP of $1.4 trillion.

The rest of Africa, 48 countries, also have a combined GDP of $1.4 trillion.

This shows a significant economic divide within the continent.

Here are the top twelve economies in Africa:

South Africa - $373.23 billion

Egypt - $347.59 billion

Algeria - $266.78 billion

Nigeria - $252.74 billion

Ethiopia - $205.13 billion

Morocco - $152.38 billion

Kenya - $104.00 billion

Angola - $92.12 billion

Côte d’Ivoire - $86.91 billion

Tanzania - $79.61 billion

Ghana - $75.24 billion

DRC - $73.76 billion

Note: Data is not available for Sahrawi Republic or Eritrea.

Africa needs to do better.

All of the above countries are AfCFTA members.
