OK_2_NV: Center of excellence my foot!

More like center of congestion.


OK_2_NV: Just like the way Nigeria likes f00ling no one but themselves that Nigeria is the Giant of Africa these ACN clowns will think their city is "center of excellence"

OK_2_NV: The place is even made uglier by the ugly people and frustrated people that abound.

you forgot lagos.

Lagos definitely has some nice skyscrapers- but Abuja is just so dull and lacklustre for a capital city!!

PS: not saying Lagos is perfect or the best in Africa...

ayox2003: Nice! CNN and FOX viewers are about the most brainwashed viewers. cheesy cheesy Some don't even know Bin Laden was CIA trained.

OP, your picture of Congo is not complete without the statue of the man who Malcom X called the most brilliant African on the plant, Patrice Lumumba.


Frawzey

these are normal expected things you expect of a city. CNN is not a tourist destination promoter.

Dear Philistine,
There is no city in Nigeria like Abuja. It is green and well planned. Skycrappers dont make a city alluring. London or Paris and most other European cities have stringent hurdles to discourage their sky line being obscured by tall modern buildings.

Again you FAIL me.

Another duffer with blinkered brain cells... You semi-illiterates and half-witted scums need to stop quoting my post(s) if you have nothing intelligent to post... They honestly need to do something about the educational system in Nigeria and the blockheads coming out of that system, tbh.

skyscraper - a very tall building with many stories

Guy make we talk true, Abuja is nice on Nigeria terms but it's planning is outdated. Abuja was planned for commuters and not pedestrians and the original master plan , that is still being followed was conceptualized and drawn in the 70's with the false premonition that Cars and roads will dominate and connect the city. One of the major cities that have this failed plan is Los Angeles. A city built in the 50's connected by series of maze like highways, L.A. is seen as one of the most expensive city to maintain and public transportation is rated lowest in the U.S. The Brazilian political capital, Brasilia also followed this format but the authorities have reworked the original plan to be more pedestrian based.Even Cottonou is far more beautiful than Abuja.

The broad boulevards and alley ways in the first few pics OP posted show a city that I won't mind going for a walk.

Talking of appollo, you have to be afflicted if you can't find any picture of Lagos better than those you posted. Not to mention your friends on queue for Agege bread. Quite frankly, I think it is a shame that Nigeria is not being compared to more advanced countries because that is where we should be.

Cool pictures. Congo is a rich country. I don"t know why Nigerians always tend to underrate their country. Abuja is the most beautiful city in Africa!

You are just going to let the trolls destroy this thread.

This thread is not about Lagos, but with encouragement and their hate and stupidity, they'll turn in into lagos hatefest.

Don't feed the Trolls...
