All our cities need to be demolished in phases and rebuilt, with the exception of Abuja and parts of Lagos.

That is what all western countries do, the London you see of today is not the London of 80 years ago. Our cities lack drainage,central sewage system and central water system and that needs to be rectified.If we don't make changes now, 100 years from now our cities will still be referred to as shitholes.

impossible here

Nigerians cities should emulate the development of Gaborone and Francistown ,Botswana and Windhoek and Swakapmond in Namibia.


Botswana: Gaborone and Francistown
These countries should have low income areas like slums, ghettos etc, what do they look like, usa, china, uk, Switzerland etc have them. All the 36 states and fct have planned areas too

Nna ehn naija na rubbish. Anybody comparing Abuja to this wonderful Namibia na mumu.

What you get in Nigeria is Rivers State where people kill with reckless abandon.
Ogun where people eat their fellow humans with soft drinks
Lagos where people loot their fellow compatriots' businesses at the slightest opportunity
Enugu where one bloated cow keeps saying that the State is in the hands of God. Meanwhile, his own hands are looking for the next available semo to eat
A country built with fraud by fraudsters for fraudsters.

Around the same population as Bayelsa which receives one of the highest allocations. Go to Bayelsa and see if there is anything to show for the thrillions received since 1999.
Bayelsa state should be better than Namibia and Botswana.

Niger delta has its own internal problems caused by Niger Deltans themselves. There is nothing stopping Niger Delta from being the most developed part of the nation beyond Niger Delta leadership and their selfish interests.

Lets start by first understanding how the corruption in NDDC was swept under the carpet by Niger Delta politicians and their cronies. One of them fainted during cross-questioning, the other wanted to mention names in the legislative arm and was begged to stop talking. Isn't it clear they all work together to the detriment of Niger Delta for their selfish motives?

Niger Delta's problems are its own selfish leaders that only care about their own pockets and not the people from the region that currently feeds the nation

You call 13 percent receiving more?!!

It is a shame that many people liked your comment. It just shows that most Nigerians are ethnic extremists.

Those who collect 87 percent for zero input turn around calling those with 100 percent input names.

Your parasitic state contributes NOTHING!

In the last 60 years it has contributed nothing. You should be ashamed of yourself. As Nigerians you should be ashamed of yourselves.

13 percent derivation you don't want us to hear anything because of has only been here for 21 years out of the 60 years Nigeria has been an independent state.

It's a shame to even be using eko Atlantic to compare windhoek& gaborone when u can't use Lagos& Abuja to compare their fellow national capitals. Eko Atlantic is a business concern meant for restricted & exclusive purposes unlike windhoek & gaborone. So I don't see d comparison & d intention to rival. Besides it's a tiny area of Lagos.

We had our independence from the whites too early.

Bullshiit. If the whites were so great, why were we an underdeveloped bush with zero infrastructure and a 95% illiteracy rate after 63 years of uninterrupted white rule?

Statistically, if there were still in charge today, you'd be an illiterate village peasant, just like your grandparents under colonialism, which saw zero investment in public education or industrial development.

you are right, I see no hope for a better Nigeria as a nation to be like the nations of our dream, sadly cry cry


The leaders destroyed Nigerians and impacted very animalistic and barbaric mentalities and behaviour on us, and it has become a Nigerian norm to be materialistic, greedy, selfish, corrupt, wicked, inhumane and none empathic to the plight of fellow countrymen.


So long as a Nigerian man or woman is making money and living luxury life, to hell with the rest of Nigerians and their families. No sense of communal progress. Everybody is chasing personal success and wealth to the detriment of other country people and the society.


Honestly there is no hope like you said, Nigeria is finished, it can only get worst daily.

The only way Nigeria can be savaged is for White people to come back and take over everything leadership and government for the next 200 years.

You are the worst type of ignorant African. Dumb to the core, yet loud as a trumpet.

The whites ruled you from 1897 to 1960 and in that period, built you not ONE university, power station, major hospital or expressway, or industry.

Today, under black rule, you count those facilities in the HUNDREDS, yet your blind bat head tells you the colonialists are 'better'.

YOUR IMMEDIATE FORBEARS WERE ILLITERATE VILLAGE PEASANTS UNDER COLONIAL RULE.

Why weren't they bankers? Industrialists? Lawyers? Engineers? Doctors?

Ever asked yourself that?

Where did all the money go?

The British were exporting billions of dollars worth of raw materials annually for 63 years.

So why were only 5% of Nigerians literate in 1960 at independence?

That figure is 75% today, thanks to massive investment in public education by post-colonial Nigerian govt.

All this progress, yet you foolishly prefer those who did NOTHING merely because they are white-skinned.

Do you even understand the REASON for colonisation?

The only reason for it is the economic exploitation of the colonised for the enrichment of the colonising nation.

So requesting a 'longer period' of this official robbery by 'white people' is truly the height of madness.
