kano has been a commercial city tay tay....so ur worries are neutralised!...after lagos, i will choose kano ,in terms of commercialisation.....

You guys should live up to the reality of present day Kano. It used to be a very important trading city right in the days of Ali and Simbi (from Early MacMillan reader).
These days, I don't see why the rest of us will leave Onitsha, Aba, Lagos and even Cotonou to go and buy market in Kano. We all fear you're just an Muhammed cartoon away from loosing your head, while risking such a far journey.
It's the northern hosts and few Igbo's that work hard to make Kano retain it's name, not new immigrants.

Great

....nothing can work in kano in respect to world class until d place us 1st de-islamised.islam and modern development are not frnds...read the adjusted laws of UAE to mk it international standard.also Wot turkey has to do to major laws of Islam to b a modern attractive city

lexing:
wow..these look fantastic..by the way would you mind me using these pics in my research with case study writers??we all are writing a piece where we are trying to prove Africa is not necessarily a third world, it is a world huge of potential..and i think this info can help us prove our thesis statement

Carry on...

"ECONOMIC" and "CITY" I know, but what is "KANAWA"?

hahahhahaa means "people of kano"

Little by little, the much maligned northerners will surpass their detractors,

While they are shouting marginalization, Oyel money, secession,

Northerners are aggressively developing their places and vigorously searching for oil,

Majority of you people on Nairaland looking down on the northerners have obviously not been there(though one cannot overlook the illiteracy level),

Through out my stay in Sokoto, I never saw one road that was not tarred, same in Zamfara

Yet the Niger Delta states(including Imo & Abia), with 13% derivation, taxes from IOCs, normal allocation still complain of bad roads

No problem.

Na true talk. But na killings kill north.

Let's face the reality, this project will be a massive failure. What does the state have to act as a stimulus to drive population to the new city? Even Abuja is still struggling to attract the right sets of people, as well built, developed and relatively peaceful as it is.
Do they think Kano is Dubai? Where people can come and live and holiday in pleasure. Ordinary landing their planes in Kaduna airport was a big problem for foreign airlines, yet they think a new city in the region will attract popular vote.
The North, with Its insecurity is a self-inflicted problem that must be dealt with, otherwise they can't make much progress.

the city is not residential, it's commercial.

It means ''Biafra''

sarrki:

He would have understood it better if you had said ''Biafra''

You are either lying as usual.

What do you tend to achieve by lying all over the internet.

Oga patriotic do you live in Kano.

Does one have to live in a place to be enlightened?

No. That's not the reason I ask him. I have the question in mind since before now.

He spoke that not out of jealousy. That's how best his likes think about north entirely. It's ignorance in the highest order. That is why they always say all northerners are illiterates

good job

Let this be done first. Everything is gradually. I pray God help them through.

The more they insult, the more they inspire and motivate us to do even better; very soon we shall see who will have the last laugh.

Kano world class city
