Kenya's loans cross the red line, analysts warn

[Cicero]

Kenya's insatiable appetite for loans to fund mega projects poses a risk to their economy and that of the EAC region.
Their volume of public debt as a ratio of GDP has already crossed the ratio of 50% limit set by East African Community member states as convergence criteria for the EAC Monetary Union. It currently stands at 52.6% compared to Uganda (38.6%), Burundi (42.4%), Rwanda (37.3%) and Tanzania (36.5%).
Wakenya angalieni msitukwamishe kwenye kuunda one EAC currency (The East African shilling).
Mara mpike data (fake statistics) now i see mnakiuka makubaliano ya debt ceiling. SMH!

Kenya has gone wild. It cant believe how fast Tanzania is growing... Where as Tanzania used to catch up with Kenya, now its Kenya that makes up effort to catch up with Tanzania...

Mimi nimeuliza mara nyingi humu wakenya wanachukuwa madeni kwa makusudi ndio kukwamisha single currency?

Na cha ajabu ni kwamba, Tanzania hatujaamza zile mbio za uhakika, tukianza sijuwi itakuwaje.

Kenya. Hawana akili kabisa. Uhuru wao mwizi tu na mhuni fulani hivi.

Ndiyo nikamwambia , kijana mmoja anayedai Kenya imeendelea nikampatia zoezi dogo sana la kuangalia GDP. GNP . na Deni la Taifa, akatoa mapovu.

Dogo, kennedy0000 kujeni huku na wakenya wenzako muone kuwa Kenya yako ni kinyesi cha nyoka.

Waache wachukue itafika mahali currency yao itaanza kuporomoka maana wata-default paying back. It is called blessing in disguise...

They never supported it from the very beginning. Hawa watu ni wa kuwa makini nao sanaaa. They block vitu wanavyohisi vitawadhuru alafu tukifanya sisi tunaitwa lazy.
Em angalia Kenya inavyokwamisha kuunganishwa kwa masoko ya hisa ya EAC?!

That is your opinion, and we do not care what u Cicero, or any other East African thinks about our borrowing.

I do not think that the majority of Kenyans are keen on the idea of a single currency, we love our Kshs as it is.

You are talking about our debts as though Tanzania is not also considering taking loans in order to actualize its many proposed infrastructural development programs.

Kenya's debts are justified and within manageable limits. At only 50 or 60 % of the Gdp...there are countries in Africa with debt to Gdp ratios even exceeding 100%.

But what matters is what the loans are used for...
In Kenya's case, it is used on financing infratructure projects that are guarateed to help pay back the loan as well as boost the economy.

So, why all the hullabaloo about the Kenyan debt levels? Ye all blowing tgis matter out of proportion.

Huu mchezo wa kublock sasa hivi wamekutana na fundi mitambo wa kublock (Magufuli). Lakini wakifanya mchezo-mchezo watalikosa soko zima la EAC kama ilivyo UK na brexit.

Wrong. In Kenya's case, 40% of it went to a few hooligans pockets and only 60% of it actually went to infrastructure development.

Its Kenya again 😀😀😀😀😀

I believe that indeed some of the borroeed development money has been skimmed off by the many perfidious individuals in the Kenya govt. That I cannot dispute.
However,the amount stolen cannot be 40%. That is extremely huge, there is no way to conceal that level of theft.

I would place my estimates at no more than 10%.

 

[saadeque]

yani kukopa tukope wenyewe,,tutumie wenyewe na kulipa tutalipa wenyewe,isitoshe tunatumia kujiendeleza wenyewe lakini cha ajabu wanaoumwa ni wengine...infact zidhani kama kuna mkenya anataka kuwa na single currency na tz,ug.rwanda au hata burundi.ebu tuacheni na mkitaka kopeni pia hatushughulika kujua mnazitumiaje

Rich people and politicians, are taking advantages over the poorest population who will be responsible to pay back that debts while, them and their families will be out of the system looking the rest in the deepest valley of poverty.

Ndivyo Kenya ilivyo. Ngoja Uhuru awasomeshe namba hadi kwa kuhesabu vidole vya mikononi na miguuni.

Kenya will only be safe if they vote for Laila Odinga.
