why.know that am currently in Abidjan though it's beautiful but as as beautiful not as abuja.

I have been ti both cities too, and to me, Abidjan floors Abuja hands down.

From the air, looking down at Abidjan's skyline, it was lovely and bright. Lit up like Europe.
But for Abuja shocked grin

Abeg make we leave story

Most people that I know say Abidjan is far better.
Abuja has no light, no water.
It's just a fancy dump to me.
How can you compare a city that has streetlights EVERYWHERE, running water even in the ghetto, and a working transport system (bateaux bus, costro, etc) to Abuja?

Even compare both airports.

Come on, stop sounding "patriotic" say the truth.

Anyway, it's your preference.

if you had compared them in that aspect then abuja wouldn't have come next to abidjan.abidjan is something else with constant power supply as well as adequate water supply which I think is what is comparable to what you have in most developed country. What I actually meant was house for house slum for slum aesthetically abuja is more beautiful

Very beautiful. Yeah, I have heard it's the most beautiful city in West Africa.
Re: THE BEAUTY Of ABIDJAN, COTE D'IVOIRE (ALL PHOTOS + VIDEOS) by Nobody: 12:26pm On Aug 17, 2018
Truly ivory coast is beautiful and very neat.. The roads are good, constant electricity and very hospitable.
Driving though plateau,cocody at night and no traffic all the way. Guess what, no traffic wardens in the country yet people are disclipled enough to respect the traffic light...
Less than a week here with my family and the kids are having fun, simple cars on the road, the people have a good and content disposition to life, no hurry and jumping...
We intend to check out the beach this weekend, i hear its an amazing place to be.

Okay I will check and revert, but things are not very cheap here like people think, it's just the difference in value of currency that makes it seem cheap.
For instance a big bottle of Eva water here cost 500cfa , while in naija it cost about 150naira.
But u will be getting value for your money, and their are basic amenities light,good roads,hospitals ,
The money u would have spent buying generator u can save here, and taxi fare...most importantly the stress free environment cannot be quantified

Flight ticket is bout 200k to and fro, I hear ABC and other transport buses can take u by road ,about 2 day journey.
A self contained apartment all ensuite can take a family of 3 or 4 with 2 young kids..cost about 50-80 thousand cefa per month .
All u need do is buy food stuff from the market and cook in your apartment so it still cut down the cost. U will need like 30,000 for foddstfuff for a week

No, my brother. Abidjan is not the same as the one of 2010/11. I am quite sure thats when you were there last. You can ask of anyone that has visited the beautiful city. and please, never compare Abuja, please. what beauty does Abuja have. I believe in Pictures. do they boast of any 5 skyscrapers there, is there even a skyline in Abuja. Only Lagos can be compared to it within west Africa. Pls never say Abuja again. Abidjan is compared with Casablanca, Blida, Algiers, Bloemfotein and other Big African city not expensive life of Nigerian politicians in Abuja.

do you compare cities based on skyscrapers? then why is Port Louis ranked higher than Johannesburg despite all her skyline? Abuja far ahead of Abidjan for your information

initially 150000# should be OK for one months vacation but due to devaluation on the naira against so many currencies including the cfa I doubt if #200000 would be enough for one month.

BOSS, I'M SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING RELOCATING OUT OF NIGERIA. I CAN CONSIDER ABIDJAN OR ANY OTHER FRIENDLY AND ACCOMMODATING PLACE. HOW DO I GO ABOUT THE VISA? MORE SO, DO WE REALLY HAVE NIGERIANS OVER THERE, CAN THEY HELP RECEIVE A BROTHER? WELL, MAYBE YOU CAN HELP A BROTHER WITH ANY USEFUL INFORMATION PLS COS I STRONGLY DESIRE TO LEAVE ASAP.

Based on West Africa standard, Abuja is special and deserves every hype. The kind of houses built are what makes it stand out for me.

There aren't much architectural masterpiece if that is what you mean. Algiers and Dakar are better with the European styled buildings
