Aso Rock and CBN buildings will be nice for a vacation.
However, this should have been the list :
1. Aso Rock Villa.
2. National Assembly Complex.
3. Supreme Court.
4. Defense Headquarters
5. Federal High Court Complex.
6. CBN
7. NNPC

Which emir palace kano...my friend my friend..bring your kokolo head...so you didn't see kirikiri prison abi?...continue.

Shameful 17th century monuments

Nnpc building, the fraud capital of Nigeria .

What's powerful about kano emir's building?

How can the Federal High Court be more powerful than the Supreme Court in any respect? It's not even on the list

Some of those pics are not of Nigeria! And how come the Federal High Court is placed above the Supreme Court of the Federation?

Nairaland e-towers, Internet. Hosts Africa's largest community of e-humans and trolls. Attacked brutally once and survived..

IGBOSON1: Some of those pics are not of Nigeria! And how come the Federal High Court is placed above the Supreme Court of the Federation?

None of the Pic there is Foreign. All are of Nigerian.
About the supreme high court, I'm making amendments.

wetin powerful abt PHCN?

Abeg comot am from d list

Comot that PHCN from there or else

u better put my awz der

what is the emir of Kano's palace looking for on this list. what is so powerful about the emir's palace? when we are talking of powerful buildings houses built with mud should not be on the list

IGBOSON1: Some of those pics are not of Nigeria! And how come the Federal High Court is placed above the Supreme Court of the Federation?

the op is correct, not even one is out of the country. All the pictures are authentic. Just try move out of your hole to FCT and see for yourself the work and product of ND oil, while their land is messed up.
Anyways, Kokorokooooooooooooo for my south-south brothers.:p

Nonybb: [b Why must you put that usel€ss Emir Palace to establish Hausa political dorminance? Because you think Obi of Onitsha Palace is not useful, Alafin of Oyo Palace is not important, Asagba of Asaba is inconsequential etc. Just name it. Useless Post[/b]

I never said the other traditional leaders are useless or not important like you are insinuating. I don't even know why you are bringing that up or where you got the idea from. I'm Sorry to disappoint you but I don't entertain peeps with disgusting tribal bigotry. Move Aside..

Aprime:

None of the Pic there is Foreign. All are of Nigerian.
About the supreme high court, I'm making amendments.

^^^That first pic of the national assembly......you sure say that one dey for Naija?

And by what standards were these chosen? Some of these buildings are worth the selection though! What about the largest single 50,000 seater Faith Tabernacle church building at Ota? Abi, e no powerful too?



click here for company registration and expatriate relocation to Nigeria

Why does our national assembly building look like a mosque

soe: Which emir palace kano...my friend my friend..bring your kokolo head...so you didn't see kirikiri prison abi?...continue.

see how this aboki imported his mud hut into this list. Fool. So the Emir or Kano's dungeon is more powerful than the Nigerian stock exchange? When kwankwaso was picking an emir why not list his own house as more powerful and the Emir of Kano's dug-out?

Where's National Art theater,orile iganmu?

If its not on the list,the list is useless.

The National Art theater is strong because its abandonment, it has become a den of robbers,and miscreants at night,walk near that place at your own risk..

The Emir palace kano shouldn't have a place in that list. It's only of national significance but not important as to make the first ten most important building in Nigeria. I think Louis edet house is of more national importance

Yomieluv: Where's National Art theater,orile iganmu?

If its not on the list,the list is useless.

The National Art theater is strong because its abandonment, it has become a den of robbers,and miscreants at night,walk near that place at your own risk..

Wait lemme get this straight.... How is a building said to be powerful?
Is it by the structural design of it?
Or by the amount spent in building?
Or the function it is used for?
Or perhaps d people dat inhabits it.
I really don't know the basis of classifying these buildings as Powerful buh wah i know is some buildings shouldn't be on that list...BTW, why are most of the buildings located in Abj?

11, my papa house......can't go out this time. would have snaped it
