Your not from Somalia. Don't debate for it. Stick to your triangle please. Thanks otherwise don't get emotional when wanlaweyne's discuss the triangle.abdi.ismail wrote:You haven't refuted a single thing I've said. Nigeria is a hundred times richer than Somalia yes (actually 50 times), Nigerians on average are just as poor though. Like I said, their GDP is due to their huge population, not due to productivity. If you want a more visible proof;
if the population of Somalia was the same as Nigeria's, that is 168 million people, then the gdp estimate of Somalia would be about (given the gdp per capita of Somalia is anything from $700-$1000) anything from $118 to 168 billion dollars. And this with a more two decade long civil war and no government.
PS their GDP is not $500 bil but about half of that. Next time, if you want to argue for the sake of it at least come with something coherent.

Either SL is a separate country or it isn't. You can't have it both ways, you chimp. I'm not going to debate my somalinimo with hyena-eaters. You couldn't come up with an argument so you resorted to dooro naagood tactics.

Abdi how come your always passive aggressive take a page out of Hargaysays book. Consider yourself fortunate i don't see you as a threat to Somali unity. Keep studying son keep it up.
SL is a region of Somalia, just as Somalis say.

Corruption, terrorism and extortion is a contemporary pastime for Nigeria- it's hardly viable to live even in most parts; the level of poverty is staggering. Yes the number of goods and services provided is high but that is in relation to the population boom.Jaidi wrote:Nigeria is improving and a viable place to live for the mos part.
Also it's not in debt to the IMF, it hasn't been for a decade.
Actually, although they paid off their initial debt of 30billion back in the 2000's they have not been immune to the economic crunch and have actually racked up 50billion in 2013 that is more than they racked up from their initial debt which took over 20years in the space of a decade. The reasons are obvious really, same pattern all over the world. Once they paid off their initial debt they took another loan out to improve infrastructure and social services but those have had to be abruptly abandoned as a result of the financial meltdown in 2008. That is without mentioning almost 1/5 of the current financial loan has disappeared in thin air as a result of the corruption which has defined Nigeria.
Anyway short story - they are crippled with debt. Majority of the worlds states are. Unfortunately developing countries are hit harder as a result of SAP programmes.

Meanwhile, In Malawi....
Malawi's president: patrol boats are to defend borders from Somali immigrants. "This is a very, very serious matter. I have been asking all our friends 'get me patrol boats for the lake. Our borders are so porous. Watch the video hilarious
"They [Somalis] buy passports so they leave this country now as Malawians, to the United States, United Kingdom."

Malawi is a country on its knees. Its GDP per capita is $200 and its government would collapse were it not for the aid from donor countries, which is 50% of the government budget - a higher percentage than Somalia - and which has been stopped by donors due to coeruption. Economically their country is in a worse situation than Somalia, which has been in war for 23 years. A population of 17 million, fertile land and their economy is about half that of Somalia, population 10 million, no resources to speak of and 23 yearsvin war.jamal9 wrote:Meanwhile, In Malawi....

[quote] Millions of US dollars are missing from the budget, the official tasked to fight corruption is in hospital with three bullets in his head and the president has admitted that even she does not know where all the money has gone.
It might sound like the plot of a thriller, but for Joyce Banda, president of Malawi, one of Africa’s poorest countries, discovering the fate of millions of donor dollars is of crucial importance to an economy worth just over $3.7bn a year.
“It is a national tragedy,” Ms Banda said in an interview in Lilongwe, the capital, about the “cash-gate” corruption scandal that erupted in September and has already led to two senior ministers losing their jobs.
“[The looting of government money] has been going on for the last 15 years and this is a president that has decided that it has to stop,” she told the Financial Times. However, critics contend that some money has disappeared on her watch and she has been slow to act.
This month western donors, who provide about 40 per cent of the country’s budget, stopped payments worth $150m, ratcheting up pressure on Ms Banda to tackle graft.
In total, Ms Banda said that about 30 per cent of the country’s budget could have been looted over a decade – almost as much as donors have provided Malawi over the same period.
The UK’s Department for International Development, Malawi’s biggest donor, said that although there was no evidence that UK funds have been misused, “it is clearly not possible to provide direct support to Malawi’s government at this time. No UK funds will be paid until we are fully satisfied that taxpayers’ money is safe.”
Other donors have taken similar action. The International Monetary Fund is considering whether it will release a $20m payment. The UK’s Dfid is funding a forensic audit team to chase the money in Lilongwe. It will report its findings to London an
d Malawi in the coming weeks.
