Top 10 fastest growing cities in the world
POSTED BY Inez Willeboordse

You may not be surprised to learn that – worldwide – more people live in urban areas than in rural areas. That number is growing fast and by 2050 it’s anticipated that 66 per cent of the world’s population will be urban.

What may surprise you is that the top 10 of fastest growing cities in the world are all African cities!
This is surely a measure of how fast the African content is growing. This of course brings challenges, but at JobnetAfrica we like to believe a lot of opportunities as well.

Here are the top 10 of fastest growing cities in the world, with the percentages of their projected growth by 2025 behind them:

1. ZINDER, NIGER - 67,6 %
2. BUJUMBURA, BURUNDI - 67,4 %
3. LOKOJA, NIGERIA - 65,4 %
4. OUAGADOUGOU, BURKINA FASO - 61,9 %
5. MWANZA, TANZANIA - 60,9 %
6. DAR ES SALAAM, TANZANIA - 58,9 %
7. NNEWI, NIGERIA - 58,2 %
8. BAMAKO, MALI - 57,5 %
9. LUBANGO, ANGOLA - 56,8 %
10. UYO, NIGERIA - 56,4 %

Anumanu, what makes it an OSU thread...

Why did the OP singleout Nnewi when we have Lokoja growing faster than any city in Nigeria.

Cheat no dey pain you guys for chestbeating?

Nnewi na one kind busy town O.
Billionaire town Japan of Africa.

2014 stats ...that is like 8 years ago nah

Okwyjesus:

What is good about it?
Growth is referring to POPULATION

Nigerias population is growing with no jobs and poverty . No housing no water no transport no education and crime

I do not see anything good about our growing population
We are the poverty capital of the world

Ttalk:

WHY I SINGLED OUT NNEWI IS because

1) Nnewi is not a state capital

2) Nnewi is the 3rd largest city in Anambra state, following Onitsha and Awka behind

3) Anambarians have succeeded in growing and developing their 3rd city to be rated along side major cities in the world....Ekwulobia will follow next.,.....when soludo enters

This thread was written in Ogbomosho

Factshunter:
2014 stats ...that is like 8 years ago nah

Does it mean that Ado ekiti, Abeokuta, Akure and Oshogbo are growing faster than Nnewi now?

By the way , the statistics was reposted in 2019 and has a projection of 30 years interval

I didn't said that but only pointed out the year the said blog posted the information which is dated back to 2014. And please, study the link as the said growth is basically about population growth.

Rated alongside which major city in Nigeria before you talk of the world by what measure? Is it public transport, Housing , Health care , Sports , Culture or education?
How many universities are in Nnewi?
How many airports?
Nnewi is another glorified Shithole

What is the difference between population growth and city expansion........Will the people live on top of a roof or on trees , more population equals to more houses, markets etc....That is how cities grow

are this people under a spell ?

Thread for osus to beat their dry chests, nnewi ko nneso ni Tueh, spits on flat headed peegs

Okwyjesus:


I think it's beyond that

NO It is ONLY that

City size and growth within the discipline of Geography/Urban planning is population PERIOD

Google is your friend

DEFINITION OF URBAN GROWTH

Is lokoja and Uyo not state capitals and among the city we have in Nigeria.....Other cities mentioned, most of them are their counties capitals just like Abuja......So what is your point...Abeg, Nnewi try

Then nothing to celebrate.

No wonder Nigerian city plenty. I for talk now...

LILTJAY:

I can feel your pains, because Oshogbo and Ogbomosho are not there

I should point out that the source of those figures is reported as the UN 2014



We are now in 2022

The fastest growing city according to those figures s Zinder in Niger . Niger has one of the highest birth rates in the world. Some sources cite Niger as having the highest while some cite Nigeria

Essentially we are making too many babies with limited capacity to guarantee their future hence all the criminality we are experiencing

Industries in Nnewi alone will swallow all the industries in Oshogbo, Ogbomosho, Akure, Ado ekiti etc....FACT

Nnewi market will swallow all the markets in all SW states minus Lagos ......FACT

lalastilala,......front page please

How do you expect Already grown Yoruba land to be in this shit.... The whole Anambra is a shithole, not to talk of Nnewi that otta alone has more generated income pass am.

Bro rest, No Reputable Hospital, No stadium, No University, No good road, No good infrastructure... In your so called fastest growing

uglyafonja:

Tell us

Ahead in making babies? This discussion should be for literates.
No baby factories in Osogbo

The fastest growing city is the one with the fastest growing population.

Nothing to gloat about

The fastest growing city in the world according to that source was Zinder in Niger where statistically the fertility rate is 6.8 babies per woman

I do not see that as something to brag about

A city is defined by population it dos dot mean progress or a good life and in Nigeria the opposite is the case
The UN defines city by population and the source of these figures is the UN

Google definition of city United nations
