Skyscraper is different from storey building!

Are the tall buildings in Africa tall enoughto scrape the sky?
Catapault:


THAT LIST IS GARBAGE AND LIES.

WHERE IS JOHANNESBURG, NAIROBI, CAIRO?

EVEN LAGOS SHOULD BE THERE.

THEY ARE TRYING TO CLAIM THAT COLOMBIA HAS MORE SKYSCRAPERS THAN ANYWHERE IN AFRICA?

WHICH COLOMBIA?

NONSENSE.

Some may say skyscrappers is not the problem of Nigeria, but this is why it is important for Nigeria to try and build the tallest Skyscrapper in Africa, at least.

1. It is a sense of national progress;
2. It is a sense of improvement, innovation, science and technology;
3. Even if we have land today, nations should plan for population increases and start building up;
4. It is a test of the prowess of a country’s engineers and architects;
5. It is a sign of modernity;
6. It is a sign of economic growth, and in fact mental development (the non-ambition of black Africa is stark in this regard. What is the essence of our vaunted education?);
7. It is a sign of ability to compete with other nations and hold our own;
8. Practice makes perfect. The more you build, the better you get. Not building or improving at all means you are not practicing as a people;
9. It is a sign of freedom, especially for upcoming generation who must do better than their predecessors. Many people who could achieve in black Africa, have refused to try because they don’t want to rock the boat. They do not want governments to come after them ,either politically or for excessive taxes. This is a symptom of fear.
10. It is a symbol of national, continental or even racial pride and gives some bragging rights in the comity of nations.

I know I quoted all,

But thank you!

No single African country was listed, not even South Africa. Yet North Korea appeared on the list.

So, with a the noise about Lagos and Abuja, Nigeria does not even have up to 10 skyscrapers??

That’s a fake shiit

South Africa has 60 skyscrapers
Egypt has 54 skyscrapers
Nigeria has 16πŸ₯²

SA and Egypt should rightly be on that list

Has by far more highrise than Lagos,
You have internet
Why not watch the videos of this cities on YouTube

And here you go, talking about evidence even when I say you should go to YouTube,
Now what's your own evidence! Of making such claims of Lagos having more highrise than Nairobi, Dar es salaam, and the capital city of Somali?

Like I said, you're too dumb!
I was talking about high rise (not skyscrapers)
It is you, out of your illiteracy
That was adding skyscrapers to the subject of discussion(because you don't even know the difference) and also I made it clear to you that, they both cities have more high rise and even more skyscrapers above your nonsense Lagos that doesn't even have common water supply, and steady power!
I know you are too dumb to learn
They free education awo gave your Yoruba people is just too pathetic πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Stanislause94:
nigeria has zero, we only have high rise buildings, know the difference

SHUT YOUR DIRTY MOUTH THERE.

YOU AND THE OTHER STUPID MORO.NS TYPING RUBBISH HERE.

A SIMPLE 10 MINUTE RESEARCH ONLINE SHOWS THERE IS NO COMMONLY ACCEPTED HEIGHT FOR A BUILDING TO BE CONSIDERED A SKYSCRAPER, EVEN THOUGH MANY CONSIDER 100 Metres HEIGHT AS THE MINIMUM.

AND NIGERIA HAS MANY BUILDINGS OVER 100 METRES TALL, MEANING THAT NIGERIA HAS SKYCRAPERS.

SO QUIT TYPING YOUR IGNORANT DUMBNESS HERE.

DAMN IDIOTS.
Re: Top 30 Countries With Highest Number Of Skyscrapers by akigbemaru: 7:10pm On Dec 05, 2023
ThierryJay:
I'm surprised Nigeria ain't there cos we have at least 50 buildings taller than 60metres.

If their definition of skyscraper is a building at least 100 metres tall, then we only have 14 that make the cut below. But personally, I think any building from 60 metres and higher is a skyscraper cos they look the part already.


14. CBN Tower, Marina Lagos - 100metres

13. Independence tower, Marina Lagos - 103metres

12. Famfa Oil towers, Ikoyi Lagos - 103metres

10. Cocoa house, Ibadan - 105metres

10. Intercontinental Hotel, V.I Lagos- 105metres

9. Dakkada Towers, Uyo - 109metres

7. 4 Bourdillon Tower, Ikoyi Lagos - 110metres

5. Eko towers beside Total, V.I Lagos - 118metres

4 & 7. World Trade center towers 1 & 2, Abuja - 120metres and 110metres

3. Union bank tower, Marina Lagos - 124metres

2 & 6. Eko Atlantic Champagne pearl and black pearl towers, Lagos - 134metres and 112metres

1. NECOM Tower, Marina Lagos - 156metres


It says 300 meter plus and that is why Nigeria is not included!
