Sometimes I forget how mismanaged other african countries are, how does Nigeria, an oil rich country, have the same gdp per capita as us
Somethings up cuz they’ve never gone through a war or anything so why are they on our level. But then lowkey the country must not be doing well with how many people leave it. Always due to economic reasons too.Sometimes I forget how mismanaged other african countries are, how does Nigeria, an oil rich country, have the same gdp per capita as us

Somali needs to be the Florida of Africa we have all the advantages
-warm water ports that are good for trade
-costal cities that have the potential of being the gateway into east Africa imagine how much banks and financial firms could open
-young population we can get them to work giving them a steady paycheck while building the massive infrastructure needed
All we need is a stable government with a superpower backing it and favorable tax and business laws
Imagine Somalia looking like this

After Somalia gets stable and running again they gotta change the name to anything other than Somalia. That name cant be turned around if we got Palestinians talking crap smh.
Don't forget the disparity in our numbers also. They have a nerve comparing the two countries.Sometimes I forget how mismanaged other african countries are, how does Nigeria, an oil rich country, have the same gdp per capita as us
A country that has had to endure civil war for 30+ years and with a population of roughly 18 million in comparison to a 220 million population and oil rich to boot.
Somalia's real GDP per-capita is actually 6000 USD . The IMF is using an outdated numbers that hasn't been rebased yet
We can know the exact GDP numbers of Somalia because 98% of the economic transactions of the country uses mobile, because mobile money transactions cover almost all financial activity in Somalia, they provide the most accurate estimate of GDP. meaning it captures almost all economic activity—both formal and informal. Because of this, Somalia’s mobile money transaction volume is a direct reflection of its real GDP, unlike in many other countries where cash and bank transactions are more dominant.
Informal workers also use mobile payment, so their contributions to the economy are visible in the data.
2.7 billion a month goes through , which is 32 billion a year and this has a share of 36% gdp meaning total would be 90 billion.
Only 6% of these transactions are remittances so, it makes remittances only 2% of the economy, 98% is locally generated wealth.
