shymexx: I personally challenge you to do that hour drive round your council and post the pictures!! As for the Abuja church, I love the design. Very edgy and post-modern, with 'attitude', unlike the dreary, outdated Edwardian/Victorian fare common to your London. 1 Like |

ogtavia: I have no time for colonized fools who wish to return to colonialism and maybe even slavery. People who think like that are a disgrace to this continent and do not deserve the modern life they currently enjoy, made possible by the black govts they disrespect so much. They should be kicked back to the colonial era so they can queue up barefoot on dusty roads like their forbears, smiling and waving blistered hands as colonial officers cruise by in their Rolls, and from there, back to their palm wine tapping/chicken rearing duties, since that is what they prefer over the modern life given to them by black govts.. I have no apologies for my disdain for such people. 1 Like |

When you talk about beauty of buildings, we talk about the innovation involved in the architecture not the interior decoration. Some of these buildings are just regular tall buildings (NNPC Towers) while the others just have awesome interiors (Le'Meridian Akwa Ibom). I wouldn't classify them as "BEAUTIFUL BUILDINGS". I am surprised non of OAU's building's was listed because the school has some awesome architectural masterpieces like Spider House and the New Museum. I would even replace Le'Meridian with Akwa Ibom State Library that looks glassy and classy. Anyway, I am happy that such building are in Nigeria. |

To Nigerians living in the West, and who are weary of responding to "innocent" questions inquiring whether Africans still reside in tree-tops, the preceding photographs of actual buildings in Africa will serve as very effective educational tools. 2 Likes |

Those buildings aren't the problem with Nigeria, the environment is. Dusty, ill constructed side walks or non at all in most cases. No sense of landscaping, open drains (who told them gutters were a thing of beauty to be exposed), that sand that's always by the roadside (where do they keep comin from?), indiscriminate setting up of shanties and shops by illiterates with no idea of beauty or order, dirty citizens littering the whole place etc Contribute to that persistent "third world" appearance of almost everywhere in Nigeria. The people too have a large part to play in creating a better environment. To those criticizing Nigeria, do you throw trash onto the roads and in drains or seek out trash cans to dispose them?? 2 Likes |

ROSSIKE: Look,I am nt saying ur comments are wrong and devoid of objectivity,..no,far from it,I do nt support colonialism or slavery,..but honestly,u seem to absolve our leaders like they've been doing it right all along..South Africa suffered in the times of apartheid,...india got it tough with the British etc...our leaders are nt any better,I wasn't born in d colonial era neither in d early post colonial era,the British were brutal and most of our leaders then working with the british such as the community leaders,district head,local sheriffs were in turn carrying out the commands of their slave masters who they should av kept at bay,protect their people from the harsh slave drivers but no,what did they do,they sold their own ppl except for some few ppl who stood up for what is right...King Jaja of Opobo is one...nobody is saying the colonial era was the good old days,let me say this,you keep saying the colonial masters didn't do anything,they didn't build universities,do u knw that the premier universities,UI,OAU,UNN were built in the colonial era,do u knw dt?...one would think that the leaders who took charge after d colonial masters left were ready for d job @ hand and had the same dream those who fought for independence had,Tafawa Balewa,Nnamdi Azikiwe,Obafemi Awolowo and so many of them,but no dey didn't,ur so called good leader Yakubu Gowon said Nigeria had so much money,the only problem was how to spend it...most of the existing infrastructures we have today was built by the colonial masters..there is no way I will support our present crop of leaders...no way madam. |
