Ethiopia: the budding powerhouse in Africa

Ethiopia: the budding powerhouse in Africa

Well I've read several ridiculous posts by you on this forum but today you just hit a new rock bottom lol! Ati you Geza being smart? Lol, give me a cup of coffee......You're the most dumb and useless person I've ever met online!
The good thing is none you is backing up his statement but feeling jittery! I am more smarter than you guys and it is a fact! even the writer of this ---- is quiet since he has exaggerated the potentials of Ethiopia and worse enough undermining Congo DRC! typical of Kenyans :loco:

'I am more smarter than you' should be 'I am smarter than you'.
'Undermine Congo' should be 'Undermined Congo'

Seems our grammar teacher needs more grammar classes than his students.

Well i was a bit respecting you to consider you to be smarter with that "more" but since you have reduced yourself to a dumb person then put it the way you fit yourself...:A S 13:

On word "undermining" not so fast as it depends on what i wanted to imply! i specifically meant a continuous tense as he repetitively continued to do so with his shallow reports! Therefore, i don't need to put the sentence the way you think it is supposed to be i call that arrogance. BTW there is no doubt my English skills are far better than yours, i assure you from that country of yours without identity as failed to master both English and Swahili (both languages not yours) apart from your tribal vernaculars! I hear your GOK conceded a defeat and you are about to teach your kids in your tribal dialects! What a loser nation..

Your punctuation is very poor, you should also learn to use pronoun "I" as a capital letter. Anyway, as for languages, in Kenya we celebrate diversity, we allow people to enjoy any language, that includes foreign ones like Swahili (which came from Arabs). Unlike Tz where everybody is whipped into speaking one language (foreign Swahili) and not given an opportunity to enjoy their cultural diversity.

Nobody is whipped to speak Kiswahili, Tanzanians have mastered the language from their ancestor's and FYI i am not writing an official report to be forced to use "I" instead of "i". FYI, Tanzania has over 120 indigenous dialects compared to Kenya with around 40! So you need to shut up with your talk of diversity...

BTw since when is Kiswahili Arabic? Every language under the Universe has some terminologies borrowed from another language including English that took a word "safari" and other few! That does not mean English has become Swahili try to hide your ignorance...

Learn to use good grammar, whether doing a report or not, or go to school.
You also need some education in history, Swahili is derived from Arabic word sawahil which means "coast". Swahili or Kiswahili was born as a blend of the Bantu grammar and the Arab vocabulary, and was initially written with Arab characters. It has become a cosmopolitan language, infusing many loan words from a variety of languages, Portuguese, English, German, Farsi (Persian) and Indian words have all found their way into Swahili. So there is no particular community that can claim its ownership, just very funny that even people from mainland both Tanzanians and Kenyans claims to own Swahili. In Tanzania, anybody heard speaking own indigenous language is viewed as unpatriotic, you have so many tribes but are only known by names but not heard. No wonder you still don't seem to achieve much in tourism despite having everything at hand.
 
^^@Lawmaina, this Geza dude goes around correcting peoples spellings on very simple words yet my little seven year old niece types better English than him. To make matters worse he goes ahead and embarrasses himself by arguing that his grammar is okay when it's so off. lol! This guy is a psycho - yet he strongly believes he's the smartest person in the world.....He really needs a doctor!

You own Kikuyu and not Kiswahili since to own a language you need to speak and write that language fluently! I am pretty sure you can't speak or write a whole page of a report in Kiswahili! Just like most Swahili books used for literature in schools globally have been written by Tanzanians put aside the most reputable Kiswahili institutes are in Tanzania. In university abroad most of the African studies universities tend to do partnership with Institutes of Kiswahili Zanzibar and Dar es salaam! I have never heard any of such partnerships with Kenya if not very few!BTW Suaheli does not mean coast in Arabic go and do research again!
 
There is Kenya beyond kikuyuland geza. Why dont you guys respect the title of the thread? Its ballooning with irrelevants.

Speaking a language doesn't make you an owner of it, besides, just because you're whipped to speak it exclusively still doesn't make you fluent. I've seen most of you writing very pathetic Swahili here on JF, anybody who has done Swahili literature can discern this. Swahili was chosen by both your nation and ours as Lingua franca, but the difference is that, here in Kenya, we are allowed to enjoy our cultural background, I can pick up my phone on the street and speak any language without worrying. My children here have ability to speak English, Swahili, French, Kikuyu and Luhya. Personally I speak several languages too. We allow and encourage diversity without forcing anybody along any one common order. Maasais along Ngorongoro are said to be tuning into our Maasai Radio stations, because they are able to enjoy and connect and have the freedom to choose.

The guy has some obsession with anything Kenyan and suffers from massive inferiority complex. I think he must have at some time schooled here in Kenya and admired our complexity. Back home, instead of working hard to catch up, he is gone into a barrage of hate campaigns.

Geza guy has this juvenile habit of derailing any thread into hate campaigns against anything Kenyan.

umemaanisha nini na haya maneno?
 
How old are you guys in here?

And I'm appalled how nearly all of you have concluded that the loads of people who cross borders running to south Africa are mostly if not all Ethiopians, ever heard of Somalis comrades?

But it is sad how educative articles that can lead to constructive arguments deteriorate so fast into juvenile if not kindergaten competitions of very inferior debate and how ironic amid all this primitivity the loudest cries of smartness are heard!

I believe deep inside a sane idiot does know how stupid he/she is and believes cries of claiming intelligence might magically erase the truth. And its a horror to think one is actually a parent or holds an influential government position.

Ethiopia, Egypt in war of words over dam talks' impasse

By Beyene Geda

​

Ethiopia and Egypt have exchanged harsh words over stalled talks on Addis Ababa's proposed construction of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam on the Nile River, which Cairo says threatens its water security.

An Egyptian delegation, led by Irrigation minister, Mohamed Abdel-Muttalib, was in Addis Ababa and met with Ethiopian Minister of Water and Energy, Alemayehu Tegenu, to discuss Ethiopia's multi-billion dollar hydroelectric dam project on the Nile River.

They came here to talk only about two items [...] without giving a chance for discussion for what we have to say
​

But the talks failed to progress, as the two parties were stuck on what to be included on the agenda.

Egypt feels the construction of the dam upstream will affect water security, while Ethiopia says wants to construct the dam for its ambitious hydropower project.

The Ethiopian minister, Tegenu lashed out at Egypt after the talks failed to cover meaningful ground.

"They came here to talk only about two items on the agenda they prepared for the meeting, without giving a chance for discussion for what we have to say," he said.

During the meeting, the Egyptian delegation reportedly expressed keen interest in discussing the "principles of confidence-building", a document that requests Ethiopia to "respect" Sudan and Egypt's water security.

Tegenu further said Egypt had sought to include international experts on this committee, but Ethiopia and Sudan said they saw no need for more representatives than those already there.

Ethiopia requested Cairo to refrain from what it described as repeated public misinformation campaigns about the dam, as temperatures continue to flare over the project.

Last week, Muttalib suggested that Ethiopia build two smaller dams to ensure there is as little impact as possible on the Nile, drawing the ire of Addis Ababa.

On the other hand the Egyptian delegation is fuming at what it sees as obstinacy from their Ethiopian counterparts.

Muttalib was quoted saying; "all suggestions by the Egyptian delegation to solve sticking points were met with unjustified rejection, reaching the level of obstinacy".

He also accused Ethiopia of failing to look at issue at hand with sufficient "attention and seriousness".

Egypt sources almost all its water from the Nile and is worried that construction of the dam will reduce the flow of the river and affect water security, whereas 86% of the Nile's source is in Ethiopia and Addis Ababa feels it also has the right to use the water for its economic needs.

The contentious Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam is set to be completed in three years' time with Ethiopia touting it as Africa's biggest.

Pls "Hide your stupidity", basically i am smarter than you on everything and more specifically on area on my specialization i.e. energy

May be he should tell us from where did he come with that 45,000 MW figure for Ethiopia?

Evidences:

"The 45,000MW hydro capacity is higher than D.R Congo’s Grand Inga Dam whose capacity is 40,000MW."

"However, Ethiopia is way above D.R Congo in terms of potential
to produce power. Figure this 45,000MW of hydro power generation is perhaps the highest capacity in the world. Add to that an estimated 13000MW of wind power and 5000MW of geothermal power, not to count solar energy
. We are talking about MW of power 63000MW of power concentrated in a single hand."




So what is your concern, that Ethiopia has a higher capacity than Tanzania? Or what? Whether you like it or not? That is the reality on the ground and you had better get used to that. Since our report are based on credible sources what is your sources for the allegation that Tanzania has enormous potential in energy? And how did Tanzania feature in the story since we only talked about the power potential in Ethiopia? Inga falls only was mentioned in passing and I was quoting CNN as part of my research.
