I have never read a more useless post, is your name Judas Iscariot?

Dynast:


Dont be deceived about "Nigeria being the giant of Africa". Just visit other small country like Kenya and Uganda.U will be amazed at how developed and better economy they are better than Nigeria. there every thing works.They have a functional system. Nigeria is living in past glory of 1960's

LastMumu:

So their big cities having constant electricity is what makes them more developed than Nigeria?

Ngokafor:




...Leave Nigerians to keep deceiving themselves..Big for nothing country that uses generators as a source of power supply even in 21st century.such a shame.

Gistpeeps:
President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe, has said that his country is the “most highly developed country in Africa” after South Africa, even ahead of Nigeria and Egypt.



Mugabe stated this at the World Economic Forum on Africa in Durban, South Africa.


“After South Africa, I want to see what country has the level of development that you see in Zimbabwe.”

“We have over 14 universities and our literacy rate is over 90 [%] – is the highest in Africa.

“Yes, we have our problems… but we have resources, perhaps more than the average country in the world, is it gold, diamond, coal… and our agriculture is very viable and this year we will have a bumper harvest,” he said.


Zimbabwe is ranked 24th on the UNDP’s Human Development Index for Africa, and 154th in the world. Nigeria is in 152nd place.

BTW they have constant electricity and running water in their big cities in Zimbabwe. I visited a friend in Kewkwe recently (Kwekwe is to Zimbabwe what a city like Ado-Ekiti is to Nigeria), and for my 3 days there, the light did not blink. I also did not see a single generator.

Might want to chew on that before you laugh at Mugabe.

Nigeria is a lot worse than many of you realise.

thoollz:
Abeg mk una travel out of Nigeria and see even "smaller" countries that are better than Nigeria. Don't sit behind your phone and think Nigeria is a big country. Na for only population o

Oxtonguy:
Africans leader develop their country for context, not for neccesity this mentality is really dragging us behind. By the way who has him question that warrant that datum

They also have running water, smooth, tarred roads all over their cities, subsidised social housing, 90%+ literacy and human development indices that are far superior to at least half of Nigeria. Their infrastructure stock was built by Europeans before majority rule happened in 1980 without a destructive civil war. They are also having a bumper harvest, meeting all their internal food needs with leftover to export - Nigeria is still importing garri and wheat and corn.

By all objective measures, Zimbabwe is a more developed country than Nigeria. Visit it and you will be shocked at how backward Nigeria actually is, relative to even the rest of Africa. It's only in the minds of delusional Nigerians who don't travel that Nigeria is some kind of great, important country. Nigeria is actually a backward, inconsequential West African British vassal state led by illiterates, where its most expensive high class neighbourhoods have open gutters, individual septic tanks, boreholes and diesel generators.

You need to get out more.

Funny comments here sha....

Quit comparing Nigeria with Zimbabwe,

How many troops has Zimbabwe donated to peace keeping missions.

Smaller countries are easier to manage. However, their growth is stifled by their population in the end.

Nigeria may one day get a UN permanent security council seat. Zimbabwe will never dream about it.

Their manufacturing potential is next to nothing. That's all they are going to be: farmers.

So we shouldnt even be talking about Zimbabwe.
