One should never forget that Ethiopia is named as the water tower of Africa!!! And by the way, about 84% of the Great Nile's water is tributed by the Blue Nile which originates from Lake Tana!!! The blue Nile itself is tributed by Abbay river which originates from sekela, Gojam, Tekeze river and Baro Akobo river!!!
We're talking about the source of the longest river and not the source of the blue Nile. It doesn't matter that the largest volume is by Blue Nile bc none of that is in Uganda. Lake Victoria provides all the volume for the white Nike and this makes it the longest bc it comes from lake Victoria.
@@limofootballhere we are talking about Nile river not it's length. River means size or volume matters. The name nile is only after white and blue nile joined in kartum not before that. If you want to talk about the river before kartum you have to call it by its name which white or blue and also you need to mention its volume so that everybody can have clear idea about the river you are talking about. As long as there is white nile and blue nile, nile from kartum is not the longest river in the world. Simple.
That's why Prophet Musa may peace and blessings be upon him was put on that blessed river which didn't sunken him , it is a blessing on Uganda to have this beautiful waters of the Nile .
I like when our videos are made by ourselves the images are beautiful and clear i wish it was longer we have many natural wonders in Africa and all over the world we want more...Good documentary.
Ĺake Victoria is the primary source of the Nile River. However, the source of lake Victoria is mainly Kenyan Rivers. Kenyan Rivers contribute about 90% of the waters of lake Victoria. However, kenya has the smallest share of the lake. The rivers that feed Lake Victoria from Kenya are: River Nzoia River Yala River Sondu River Mara River Nyando River Migori River Gucha River Kuja River Miriu River Kibos River Sio River Nyamwamba
I believe this is right as a Ugandan because of the raised rift valley from central Kenya downhill flows of rivers determine but it's not 90%. Most of the waters flow from Tanganyika, Rwanda, through kagera river, some tributaries in central tz as well we can't despite rivers that flow under the surface of earth
The White Nile is only 10 percent of the stream flow of the Nile. Ĺake Victoria is NOT the primary source of the Nile River. 90 percent comes from another system. Do not get carried away.
The one of the Rivers of Paradise to be picked from our Country Uganda and mentioned by Prophet Muhammad (S . A . W . ) that's why Uganda is blessed and favored by Allah .
Ethiopians always mad in the comments talking about the blue Nile as if that makes it the longest river lmao 😂. If the blue Nile is the source, then the Nike isn't top 10 longest itw.
The source of the river Nile is located here in Uganda. The ancient Egyptians believed that the river Nile flowed from heaven because its flow never dried up. Sometimes it flooded beyond its banks like it still does today but it never dried out. Thus Uganda is the HEAVEN the ancient Egyptians believed it to be.
@@omwangegriffins7000 my friend, don't be stupid, the blue nile starts from lake tana in Ethiopia and joins the white nile in khartoum to form nile proper
Lake Victoria in Jinja, Uganda. Stop making up shit. Your small rivers flow into Lake Victoria, it doesn't make them the source. Lake Victoria is the largest Lake in Africa and 2nd in the world, how are you making such nonsensical claims? Do you consider the source of a river beyond an ocean if there's another river that flows into it on the other side? Stupid logic.
Which name would THAT be? The lake is bordered by numerous different ethnic groups, each of which has its own name for the lake. It's the same with many geographical features, such as Mt. Everest. Use the Indian name and that will offend the Tibetans, and vice versa. Best to leave it as it is: everyone knows what you mean.
Jinja in Uganda is the sourcer of the Nile. If the all the rivers which pour into lake Victoria dry up, the Nile will still exist. Or else those other rivers which pour into Lake Victoria shoule be part of the Nile, but they are not called the Nile.
The Ethiopians need to hear your statement. They keep talking about providing the larger volume as if the White Nile depends on them lol. The white Nile would still reach the Mediterranean sea if the 2 tributaries didn't meet and this would make the White Nile the longest river itw. So, this is another stupid claim. They're 2 different rivers that just happen to meet. One makes it the longest itw and the other enhances it's volume. Point closed.
Fun fact the blue nile doesn't start from lake tana it starts from a place called sekela and continues its path without mixing with lake tana. Its amazing to see two bodies of water flowing without mixing.
@@kiiza2886 I think you're drunk.first of all lake Victoria which is the source of river nile is not bordering Rwanda. Again there's no river nile in Rwanda.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 nice joke. What would stop it? It made it'd way all the way from Southern Uganda to Central Sudan without a decrease in volume.
John Speke, is the first European to see the source of the Nile in Uganda. This is the correct statement. By the time he came, the Basoga and the Baganda were already where they are for more than seven centuries. The term "DISCOVERE"is erroneously used by the European explorers. It depicts colonial mindset of authority in documentation. It would equally be proper to reverse the name of lake Victoria to it's native luganda or lusoga name. The to it, Victoria, is totally foreign. It hallows foreign master, the Queen of England at the time. Iddi Amin tried to change the names of our lakes and game parks but after he was deposed, the names reverted the colonial names given. This is an indicator that we are not yet fully liberated. Let leaders, with the guidance of traditional leaders and historians change these names. These will demonstrate our heritage not of Europeans.
Please rename your lakes and even cities back to their original African names. They brazenly just changed our age-old names and used it as a tool for mental submission to their way of life.
So The River Is Not Called Lake Victoria it Was Changed. How Do U Come On To Someone Else Country. And Change Its Name? Thief...........A individual Who Steals Property That Belong To. Someone Else.

@@bizimungudivin2836 Did he really say the Nile passes through Burundi, going where, to South Africa? Unbelievable.
@Nsubuga Patrick so you are denying the fact that it passes through Burundi? See this @00:17
And say something about it. Thanks
@@bizimungudivin2836 I've heard no mention of Burundi boss, the river starts from lake Victoria and flows northwards, how the hell does it turn around to Burundi in the south, I'm flabbergasted, don't believe in these TH-cam that can't make visual artistic impressions, they rather use those that are already existing on the internet.
Anyways let me tell it to you straight, rivers don't cross the equator, they either flow north or south of it and that's why the Nile can't flow from Jinja in uganda down to Burundi then back to the north, it's impossible, the man in the video clearly says that the Nile starts in Jinja Uganda, please tell you geography teacher to stop lying to you.
Without Ethiopia's blue nile it wouldn't reach Egypt
😂😂😂
Why
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 nice joke. What would stop it? It made it'd way all the way from Southern Uganda to Central Sudan without a decrease in volume.
Of course it wouldn't reach Egypt. Because the water volume from Uganda is very very small.
you want to know if nile source is lake Victoria just build electric dam then you will find out
after egypty comes crying
There are many dams on white nile
Nalubale...Kida
John Speke, is the first European to see the source of the Nile in Uganda. This is the correct statement. By the time he came, the Basoga and the Baganda were already where they are for more than seven centuries. The term "DISCOVERE"is erroneously used by the European explorers. It depicts colonial mindset of authority in documentation.
It would equally be proper to reverse the name of lake Victoria to it's native luganda or lusoga name. The to it, Victoria, is totally foreign. It hallows foreign master, the Queen of England at the time.
Iddi Amin tried to change the names of our lakes and game parks but after he was deposed, the names reverted the colonial names given. This is an indicator that we are not yet fully liberated. Let leaders, with the guidance of traditional leaders and historians change these names. These will demonstrate our heritage not of Europeans.
Please rename your lakes and even cities back to their original African names. They brazenly just changed our age-old names and used it as a tool for mental submission to their way of life.
No, is false the source of Nile is in Burundi go and search well
Did he discover it🙄🙄
Yes. Before Spike no one travelled thru and proved the fact that fact.
No blue nile is the source of nile from Ethiopia and biggest volume of water thats why the is conflicts between Egypt and Ethiopia
Also in bible river nole z mentioned
Find it very tiring when I hear an African saying it was discovered!
Who is saying No?
Its Uganda with source of the nile
Amazon is the longest and biggest river in the world
So The River Is Not Called Lake Victoria it Was Changed. How Do U Come On To Someone Else Country. And Change Its Name? Thief...........A individual Who Steals Property That Belong To. Someone Else. Can U Tell Me The Lake Real Name Before The Name Was Change? Please Call The Lake By It’s Original Name
The main source is Kagera then it pours to Victoria
This just proves Ancient Egyptians ancestors came from uganda,king tut himself said hes ancestors came from the source of the nile.
Uganda is lower egypt…..
North African
you are wrong when you say the Nile river. you should say the white nile.
From Solomon Islands
Burundi the True source with pyramid
The real source of the Nile is in Rwanda I learnt a few years ago. For me this video doesn't answer the question it poses!!!
Only God knows the Source of River Nile
Some professional divers should go down have a look at the source. And film it
Why didn't the Ugandans, the Sudanese, who were black in the Middle Ages mix with Egypt? Why couldn't he walk to Europe?
He did not discover it……he found it there and was taken there by black people
If all these countries are independent .why not change the name back to the original name.the rivers is the identification of the continent
The prophet pbuh says that ,the source of Nile is heaven .
9 countries ..o wow..
Lake.victoria were the.source
