Yes, let our Abuja be the most neatest city first in Africa then we can talk.

There is nothing to talk about. Cleanliness is only one metric to consider and it is not even a major one because Abuja is quite clean. The degrees of difference don't make enough of a difference, especially when this particular discussion is about architectural and other aspects of infrastructural beauty.

But of course this is all subjective so it's fair enough it you prefer Kigali.

if u see pics of some places in Abuja you won't believe it's Nigeria. So drop all this talk. Those pics mean nothing

PS. @op it seems like this your post is more about dissing Lagos than actually showing the developmental strides being taken in far way Kenya (Nairobi to be specific)

I'm beginning to believe what Yoruba people say about igbos envying Lagos.

Is it the same Lagos that Igbos have lion share at they are envying??
Bros travel and see for yourself and you will be ashamed of Nigeria not just Lagos.
I have been to Nairobi twice and it's a nice place man

Stop it,it's not a good thing.

You want to kill us, Abuja ke, comparing it to Kigali is like comparing Everton to Madrid,from the landscape to the scenery and building architecture Abuja doesn't even come close.
What more it is the cleanest city in the world
Abuja beats kigali anytime anyday. They’re not even mate. Kigali is a overhype village. Can’t even match port harcourt.

That is why we need Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the President in 2023. He's the founder of the New Lagos. He's a builder, planner and creator of new frontiers. Imagine what will happen to Nigeria when he in charge. I pray he leads us in 2023. Amen
And I several other well-meaning Nigerians pray that God doesn't answer your prayer.

How is this about Lagos now ? Are you even not from a state in Nigeria ? If "everything about lagos na hype....", why don't you tell us where you're from or you are too ashamed to even mention it here ? You guys obsession with Lagos is quite unbelievable; it's insane ! It's not hard at all to know who you're; an hate filled " developer" from dotland republic of cannibals ! If Lagos na "hype" go back to your village in alaigbo na !

Apart from the pictures, Nairobi is beautiful in real life and also has its own low end neighbourhoods.
Well said, there are some area in Nairobi that Ajegule is better than but they won’t post that for us to see.
Nairobi is not beautiful or developed than Lagos or Abuja or even Cross River State.
I have been to Nairobi, Mombasa and Thika, I can tell you they’re not better than Lagos or Abuja.
Thika is just like Edo state no difference.

You’re right except for Electricity, those people have stable light bro, power don’t go off in weeks and when it does, be expecting it in 5-10 minutes.
I lived in Thika road near USIU sch gate for over 2 months and I have witnessed how good their electricity is.

Well, it's quite soothing that someone put these up for Nigerians to see.
I recall how some Tinubu lackeys swooped on me the day I told them that Nairobi-Kenya and Windhoek-Namibia are way ahead of Lagos, not to mention Cape Town, Pretoria, Johannesburg, Cairo, Rabat and so on.

But for the mindless pillaging since 1999 by the toad-eyed robber and his gang, Lagos by virtue of the humungous amount of revenue it generates should be rubbing shoulders with the likes of Pretoria, Jo'Burg and Cape Town, not even Nairobi.

Thank you OP.

Lagos and Abuja are busy building fancy houses in wrong locations without industry to employee the buyers.

They seal and buy but cannot feed or sponsor their family education and are force to sell and leave the country.

Location/ocean view in Lagos that should be assign for vacation resorts are allocated to developers for housing...clueless and incompetent government workers/professionals. Even the roads inside those estate cannot fit Keke, and no sidewalk.
