So Kenya has no oil., and look at the results, nigeria has oil and neither Lagos nor Abuja can compete with Nairobi so what the hell is wrong with us?


, TO BE CONTINUED

Well, be on guard! SA is full of crime despite beautiful cities and you might end up being stabbed just for a mobile phone. Moreover, the Whites are very xenophobic towards (other) Africans and they think that the rest of Africa is "shit" and "hopeless" for good and they only write and speak very badly of us! So beware. the country is beautiful but the people are wicked and weird!

Dear Constantin: Thanks for your post and inquiry, actually am not a camerounian, an Nigerian from Abia state, but I live and do my business here in yaoundé cameroun. The pictures you sent are all douala pictures, when I have a free time I will post yaoundé pictures for you ok?

Douala is like Lagos while Yaoundé is like former Enugu state or Abuja,is cool here, even the whether here is always cooled, because of the numerous mountains that surround yaoundé you will hadly feel your in Africa,because of the cooled, not too much though.

Yes Douala use to be very nice in the 70's and 80's till there was a political riot and the Citizens burn down many infrastructures including destroying the former beautiful roads,the old man thats the President who has been in power more than 27 years refuse to rebuild anything again in douala, hence thats way those roads are like that, but not all part of douala is like that though.

Cameroun is better than nigeria only in terms of constant electricity, constance water supply, and Security,business also is good here I mean that why we are .

Catch you later.



Thanks for your reply!

Cameroon´s currency is strong as opposed to our Nigerian currency, right? That gives the country some fiscal discipline.

I still have a few questions:

1.) Are many people in Cameroon speaking English or only French?
2.) Are there as many rich people in Cameroon as in Nigeria? Despite poverty in Nigeria, you can see big big houses for miles on end? Is that the same in Cameroon? What about the urban middle-classes in Cameroon?
3.) Are many investors coming to Cameroon? (Nigerian, French, Chinese etc.) and are Cameroonian open-minded people?
4.) And what about Cameronnian people, how are they like in general? Same like Nigerians or somehow different?

I would really be glad if you find the time to answer me those questions!

I know that cameroon is Nigeria´s neigbour but I know very little of that country.

Thanks for posting those picture,Yes I live in yaoundé the political capital of cameroun, there is no way you can compare cameroun with Nigeria, nigeria is heaven to cameroun,even the poorest state in naija is more orderly and more beautiful than cameroun.

Echideme, are you Cameroonian? Well, Douala also has some nice buildings and places, but if you are from Cameroon, please can you tell me what happened to Douala, it used to be a nice and orderly city in the 70´s and 80´s or am I wrong?

And how is Yaoundé, the capital of Cameroon, is it better than Douala? what about entrepreneurs? Cameroonian people are also dynamic people like Nigerians I have heard! I´ve never been to your country but I would like to find out, please give me an honest reply! And what about tousrism in Cameroon, Cameroon is a nice country, it has a beautiful lanscape!

Hope you can answer me those questions!

Douala is Cameroon´s largest city. I want to show it to you ´cos Cameroon is Nigeria´s neighbour, Whom of you have been to Douala or Cameroon? So maybe someone can join the debate and give some insight or general comments!

Population:
around 18 million (2006)

Economy - overview:
Because of its modest oil resources and favorable agricultural conditions, Cameroon has one of the best-endowed primary commodity economies in sub-Saharan Africa. Still, it faces many of the serious problems facing other underdeveloped countries, such as a top-heavy civil service and a generally unfavorable climate for business enterprise. Since 1990, the government has embarked on various IMF and World Bank programs designed to spur business investment, increase efficiency in agriculture, improve trade, and recapitalize the nation's banks. In June 2000, the government completed an IMF-sponsored, three-year structural adjustment program; however, the IMF is pressing for more reforms, including increased budget transparency, privatization, and poverty reduction programs. International oil and cocoa prices have a significant impact on the economy.

N'importe ce que vous les gens dites, la France est mes meres debarquent toujours, je veux voir que vous peuple Goliath maintenant, je suis ne a Paris et Paris est toujours le meilleur endroit que j'ai jamais ete a dans la vie. Donnez vos commentaires en francais svp

I will only receive opinions or question posted in francais

Salut, ton francais est vraiment truffé de fautes, moi je parle francais parce que j´ai vécu à Abidjan (l´ancienne capitale de la Côte d´ivoire) pour quelques années. Mais ton francais c´est de la honte, je te conseille de retourner à l´école pour l´apprendre mieux ou demande à ta mère qui est Francaise de le parler plus avec toi!

Abidjan by far, that once beautiful city has gone entirely to the dogs!

I hope this project sets the milestone for a new, fresh intelligent, cosmopolitan and young Nigeria! I love it and I can´t get enough of such projects being built in Nigeria in particular and in Africa as a whole!

Lagos (VI)

ooohh please come on, Nigeria has so much to catch up in the entertainment sector. An ice-rink is nothing special nowadays, every emerging market of theis world has tons of those already.

Apart from that Naija needs malls, malls, malls, malllssssssssssss till you drop

cineplexes till you drop

restaurants , bars like in any part of the world

theme parks

more hotels , I mean good international standard hotels: wHERE ARE THEY IN NIGERIA; DON´T TELL ME THAT NICON hOTEL IN ABUJA OR ´DA EKO IN LAGOS!!


ALL THIS IS NOTHING SPECIAL!!!
IT IS TODAY´S STANDARD AND IT IS EVEN THE MORE SAD THAT OUR COUNTRY LACKS ALL THOSE FACILITIES. NIGERIA IS NOT NIGER REPUBLIC BUT THE SIXTH LARGEST EXPORTER OF OIL AND THE STRANGEST THING IS THAT ALL THE NIGERIANS THAT CRY WE DO NOT NEED ALL THIS "WESTERN STUFF" ARE THE FIRST WHO ENJOY THOSE STANDARD ENTERTAINMENT FACILITIES WHEN THEY TRAVEL ABROAD!

THIS COUNTRY CAN REALLY BE DISAPPOINTING

ALL THIS IS NOT IMPORTED STUFF IT IS A MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY [/b]THAT COULD [b]CREATE MILLIONS OF DIRECT AND INDIRECT JOBS IN OUR COUNTRY[/b]AND IT WOULD ADD A LOT TO NIGERIA´S ATTRACTIVENESS. FOREIGENERS SPEAK BADLY OF OUR COUNTRY NOT JUST BECAUSE IT IS BADLY GOVERNED BUT ALSO BECAUSE IT IS A FUCKING DULL PLACE WITH ABSOLUTELY FAR TOO FEW ENTERTAINMENT FACILITIES

[b]THE PALMS IS THAT ALL A COUNTRY THE SIZE OF NIGERIA CAN OFFER?

WAKE UP NIGERIA WAKE UP THE WORLD IS NOT WAITING FOR YOU

RECENTLY I HAVE READ THAT ANGOLA WILL SOON SURPASS NIGERIA IN ITS OIL PRODUCTION TO BECOME AFRICA´S LARGEST OIL PRODUCER THE WORST OF THE STORY IS THAT ANGOLA HAS EMERGED OUT OF WAR 4 YEARS AGO AND NOW SOOOO MUCH IS GEETING BUILT

NIGERIA WAKE UP PLEASE!!!!! I BEG , oooooo

Again one more of the countless pipedreams, no ice-rink, this would have surprised me. I would have jumped out of joy if Nigeria has its own ice-rink

It is a good idea, however I wonder if it is going to bring any revenue with all the costs that have to be made with Nepa situation. Not many Africans like to (ice) skate, I guess is more a thing of the Western Society. That does not mean that it can't work with the right marketing and promotions it can even become a hype among the wealthy people in Nigeria.

Do you think that people in Kenya are not Africans? They have a olympic size ice-rink there and it is da´bomb, Ivoirians went skating already in the 70´s on a huge ice-skating rink in Abidjan at that time. Do you think that Arabs who are Beduins (nomands desret people) are made to take their snowboards and enter an ENTIRE SKI WORLD WITH SLOPES AND LIFTS??
Do you think that South East Asians are made for ice-skating? Same temperature like Naija but you will find many ice-sakting rinks all throughout Asia, even India opens up and you will even find ice-sakting rinks there now.

We no longer live in the 50´s but in the 21 century. LET´S OPEN UP A BIT! (Taht doesn´t mean to throw away our own culture), We have to integrate the Best of the West and retain our own culture

OK, having said that where are the pictures? We are all still waiting or was is just one big joke?

Every second word on this forum is SOUTH AFRICA, SOUTH AFRICA AND SOUTH AFRICA.

Can´t we build our own "South African" at home instead of rushing into a country where Nigerians are not welcome, to put it mildly

Ohh please stop talking nonsense and telling lies! [/b]An ice-skating rink in Naija where NEPA takes the light more often than it restores it! It would instantly melt away and people from outside will enter with their buckets in order to fetch the freshly melted ice (water) for washing clothes outsides, we all know how Nigeria works, ooo!!!!

Tommorow you will tell us that A Dubai-like snowdome with slopes and skiing lift has opened right in the middle of Lagos.

[b]I WILL ONLY BELIEVE IT UNTIL I SEE IT! IF IT IS THE CASE WHERE ARE THE PHOTOSSSSS

yall are hilarious. The construction for the Theme park that will also feature "Africa's First 7 star hotel". Two mega shopping malls, ciniplexes, two Tv broadcasting studios and more, oh yeah I forgot the housing estates that will be of great standard but will be made affordable to the Average Nigeria. The project is in conjuction with Paramount, and African American investors have also showed their interest in this mega project. The size of the theme park is remarkable and can be sized up to any theme park in the world. If you don't feel safe in this theme park when it's completed then you can apply the concept and not feel safe in any other theme park. This project is a reality Wink

I can´t wait to see that project come true!

IT IS HIGHHHHHTTTIIIMMMEEEE THAT NIGERIA ADVANCES WE ARE THE HEARTBEAT OF AFRICA!!! IT IS A SHAME THAT WE NIGERIANS HAVE TO FLY TO "SMALLER" COUNTRIES LIKE SOUTH AFRICA, DUBAI OR LONDON WHEN WE COULD HAVE PARADISE AT HOME!!!!!! FUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK!!!!!

sO NOBODY KNOWS ANYTHING NO PROJECTS PLANNED?

Please, does anyone know if there are any new big and modern malls are planned in Nigeria (Lagos, Abuja, Kano and Port Harcourt)? I want to find out because of franchise business. Thanks for your help in advance!

Dblock, nevertheless great photos but one has to keep in mind that the Philippines are far from what their counterparts have achieved.
