This cities that is filled with adverts in every building and you are calling this beauty.
A beautiful city is one that is filled with nature, trees, grasses, even passing the street will make your BP regulate.
This is rubbish to me

Don't mind them. Much as I admire the Japanese, i would be very, very disappointed if influential Nigerians are right now looking at Tokyo and thinking, 'wow, this is what we dream for Nigeria’.
Nigeria is a clean slate; we should be looking beyond many of these old world cities. Cities like Tokoy, London, and Paris are imbedded, it would cost them far more to build what Nigeria could build than to just leave things as they are and refurbish here and there or build one or two fantastic new structures in replacement of some unsafe older buildings. The future of urban development belongs to nations like Nigeria.

In Africa, the southern and eastern African countries are picking up rapidly. China was so bad the people used ordinary grasses for vegetables Les than 5 decades ago. They have fixed that.. we will fix ours at some point when people like you stop electing buffoons like Buhari as president!
Once again; you are the one with disability not Africans! Thank you!!
so much emotion.

Africans have been scientifically placed at the bottom of IQ racially. Now we have some serious debunking to do scientifically about that.

While Africa has individual talents and brains to match the rest of the world, the percentage has not been big enough to make a collective transformation in Africa. In other climes, it's the small percentage of their geniuses that changed their societies.

I find it very worrisome that Africa has not contributed anything independently to technology or development and we're still the most undeveloped part of the world.

I'm not comparing Lagos and Aba. Pls be guided. I'm telling you as a matter of fact tht Lagos is a huge jungle. Visit shanghai, visit HK, visit Singapore, visit Shenzhen, visit Ningbo, visit Tokyo visit Kuala Lumpur..., Come back and you will say worse things about Lagos... Some of the places you just mentioned are just the equivalent of middle class neighbourhoods in these places. But I know you will choose to argue.... With your skull like tht of oshiomohle..

This post doesn't make sense at all. Tokyo is advanced country in the same level with US, Russia, UK, Germany. In fact, Japan is arguably the best in terms of Technology in the world. They're the founders of Mechatronics Engineering (Robotic Education). I don't know why some Nigerians think US and Europe are the only developed nations.
Japan is among G-8 countries, one of the most developed nations on earth. Japan was developed nation before WWII.

This complex would disappear when they start to read outside what they get taught in class alone. No knowledge of black history to know why we are this way...if only they know.Japan monarchy is over 2000 years old and became ceremonial at the end of WW2. Stable government with succecion plan policy etc makes a nation develop

Until we get rid of corruption and corrupt leaders or politicians, nothing is changing in Nigeria. When there are no consequences, bad behaviors become serious encouraged and this is what is happening in Nigeria. I remember I went to an APC function outside Nigeria, and if you see how they were sharing money, you know why Nigeria is very backward. If We can give such corrupt politicians or the untouchable a very lengthy prison sentences through a very strong judiciary branch, then Nigeria will improve drastically. Imagine an ex president or ex governor sentenced to 30 years for corruption charge if found guilty, the effect will be immediate. Till then , we can keep hoping.

You have time to educate these village boys when they cant use Google images to educate themselves.
I felt ashamed when I saw a thread comparing Abuja with Dubai or Tokyo railways.,
Tokyo's Shinjuku Station is the most complicated, most fascinating, largest railway system in the whole world!
Nigeria should be relegated to a 4th World country, reason why some People still thinks lagos, and Kaduna are developed.
When igbos who travel a lot complain they call them ipob, reason why we want our Biafra.

We cannot solve the power supply when we have too many hungry politicians looking for money to loot There are no serious laws regulating corruption and most politicians are getting away with the national cake with no serious prison time. If my local government hardly fix the road what make one think that those in power will want improvement in the power supply. A strong judiciary system with an auditing government agency on how money is spend will keep Nigeria corruption in check. The Judiciary branch in Nigeria is very weak and it is not strong enough to counter the executive branch or legislative branch. Nigeria do not have a true check and balance of power

People saying there's something wrong with the black color have been defeated mentally by eurocentrism.

If there was something wrong with the black man he would never succeed no matter where he finds himself. And that is not the case.

Most of Africa is just grappling with leadership problems. For example, if you say there's a problem with black, do you know in some African countries they can never cheat you no matter what? Do you know they don't steal, crime is generally low, and other positive attributes. Are they not black people too?

Shun that nonsense mentality. We can do it, even if it won't come easy.

it seems Nigerians don't know we are third world country, the world has gone beyond the development we celebrate. No hate , but let's hold our leaders responsible . some people still post third mainland bridge to show development in Lagos undecided

You make a valid point about Nigerians being easily satisfied. However comparing Nigeria to Japan is a bit of a misnomer. After the second World War Japan was completely crushed - its industrial regions destroyed and its people humiliated and broken. The US led Marshall plan injected $13bn into the economy using the brightest economic minds of the time. Secondly Japan is about 2,680 years old. Thirdly Japan is a largely homogenous country with ancestral lines from only two sources the Yayohi and the Jomon people unlike the fractious patchwork of people that make up Nigeria.

This is no excuse for the brigandry and corruption that takes place in Nigeria or the nigh lack of developmental vision but it is important that we also take a step back. It is only when we step back that we can see the true problems of Nigeria as an artificial state with no common culture or vision. Until this is righted, we will remain undeveloped. As the good book says in Amos " Can two walk together except they be agreed?"

No one in the history of the world has ever run a government that’s fair and righteous , that’s impossible..even Jesus and prophet Muhammad S.A.W didn’t engage with government because that would ruin their record...
If you blame the government always where are the good people in Nigeria the ones that won’t include vices in governance, i will tell you they don’t exist in Africa we don’t have them. Every politician comes from the African community what we see is our best , the best we have the best we deserve and the best we recieve... Personally I don’t believe there’s hope for Africa, Nigeria especially, our leaders got the worst lecture during colonialism that was all about stealing and exploitation, so you can’t expect them do anything worthy that what the British taught them... and that’s what the politician are teaching their henchmen and lackeys ... The system is rigged and no one seems to care!
stop yarning rubbish bro,who tell you no good pepo in Africa,u don't know how politics and system in Nigeria and Africa in general operates? these bad guys chance every opportunity that matters and after that they put on their stooge when they are about to retire.do you think votes counts in Nigeria I bet you if it really counted so many smaller and good Politicians in other parties might have had a chance but in nigeria,hell no.infact if the bad guys no annoint and blend you,even your money wey long no go save you grin
