Spot on how? Have you visited some villages in Cape, Limpopo? Trust me, this is a big fat lie.
I'm South African I should know. judging from the cities I keep seeing here, some of our villages actually do look better than some of your cities.

Its been more than 30yrs since i left Maiduguri, i attended Maiduguri International Primary School (MIPSET). Dont know if the school still exist today. I lived near Lake Chad club.

Maiduguri then was a beautiful state(i believe it still should be), i remember going to Leventis supermarket and swimming at Mai Deribai hotel. The state was filled with foreigners living their normal lives like every Nigerian.

Its a shame 90s children did not grow up to see how Nigeria was. We where almost there as a nation, before thieves and unpatriotic people destroyed this country.

Now, from North to South we are a shadow of a shadow of ourselves.

Lol.... You want to compare a village in Venda to Asokoro, Maitama, Banana Island, Ikoyi, Victoria Island?? Come on man. I am presently in South Africa. Don't get me wrong, Southie is beautiful, however, don't compare Southie villages to cities in Nigeria.

Haibo, comparing a South African village to Nigerian city is just plain ignorance.

There is nothing to be emotional about. My point is simple. No village in S.A compares to cities in Nigeria. Enjoy the rest of your evening.

Borno is peaceful and calm , half of the population in Lagos should relocate to borno so as to decongest that town abeg . We need fresh air here in Lagos.

Maiduguri is a war torn city at the moment. But prior to the war, Maiduguri is better than Elim. I have lived in Maiduguri before. I am presently in Makhado, and I visit Elim.

There is more to Maiduguri than the video you saw.

I am in a better position to dispute your claims. You have no idea what Maiduguri looks like.

Maiduguri houses one of the most expensive houses in the world. It has an Airport, which Elim certainly doesn't have, it has a University, a club house, golf course and great hotels. All these are absent in Elim. Don't let the video fool you buddy.

The fact Maiduguri is being compared to a village is an indictment on Maiduguri.

But the OP should have put the best Maiduguri had to offer if he was gonna boast about the city here. I can't put up Alex and Hillbrow here to brag about Joburg.

The universities are the worst. I'll give it to them, Abuja is their only city that actually impresses me, but it's small. Eko Atlantic will never get off the ground - just 3 buildings in 20 years. I saw Enugu and the greenery a few days ago and I liked that too. Everything else always disappoints.

Isn't Maiduguri in an arid desert-like place? It's possible.
