“Been to Uganda and Kenya and I can tell you that we’re 50years behind, African giant nah only for mouth” – Dandizzy

Dandizzy, a Nigerian has expressed from his experience on tour to Uganda and Kenya that Nigeria is not worthy of the title ‘African Giant’.

It all started when an X user known as @I_Am_Winter asked a question saying;

“Abidjan and Nairobi, which is more developed ?“

Dandizzy expressed that Nigeria is fifty years backward in infrastructural development, and also claimed that the infrastructural status of Nigeria cannot be compared to what these African countries has. 

His words read;

Been to Uganda and Kenya and I can tell you that we’re 50years behind, African giant nah only for mouth, if no be music and football we suppose close this country start afresh. 

This not a serious question bro. When Kenya is talking, the whole of West Africa should kneel down and face the wall. There’s no comparison.

In response, Hundeyin tweeted;

“This is not a serious question bro. When Kenya is talking, the whole of West Africa should kneel down and face the wall. There’s no comparison.

Nigeria has more rich individuals than Kenya, but Kenya has a much better off middle class, and also a bigger middle class proportional to its population. So on paper Nigeria is wealthier but if you go there, you will see the truth for yourself. Nobody will have to tell you.”

In Dandizzy’s view, Nigeria lacks the basic needs and might not be able to meet up with what other African countries have done over time, even in the next fifty years.

He claimed that he mentioned Uganda because Uganda has constant power supply which is something Nigeria is still struggling with.
