Abohboy: Do you actually think that there are no malls in Nigeria they have started building many malls most are shoprite though you have malls like Lekki palms, ikeja mall, novare mall 1 and 2 and then the rest of the shopping is done in markets
Don't forget to add most are Nigerian owned and(or) managed.
68816419: Fool,show me only 5 black south Africans that won Gold medals at this concluded African games,did your soccer and boxing team wins any medals?. 36 gold, was won by SA of which 20 Gold was won by "all" white swimmers. they raked in 45 medals in the pool, including 20 gold. The all Whites canoeing squad also did well to contribute 10 medals, including eight gold, while the same all whites cycling contingent grabbed nine medals, adding six golds to the bag. High jumper Mpho Links (the only black South africans) was the athletics team’s only gold medallist.
SUFFERInSMILIIN: I went in so much learnt trying to go to take these pictures but now people can see the true Lagos and the true Nigerian. If you look on your right you will see most of the sign boards are empty because the metal sheets for those metal sheets had been stolen in Lagos
And ironically these supposed photos of lagos still look better than that shithole Crown Slum Colony Kenya.
Kazikazi: Friend, How is Wajir Kenya doing? How is hunger situation over there? How is bucket toilets? Hahahahaha hahahahaha Hohohohoho U use a bucket as a toilet? Really? Is that what u call being hardworking? No food,no toilets.Then u call urselves as hardworking folks?
68816419: Nigga, stop deluding ur self,how comes only white south Africans made strong impacts at this concluded all African games, where are the black south Africans at?, how comes most( if not all )of the all the Gold medals won were by white south Africans,What happened to the black south Africans?
Looting shops like characters in a post apocalyptic video game. Also living outside the main cities in shantytowns; either to poor to get involved or lazy to compete.
IronGalaxy: Yep you do. [s]It is what it is. People who gush at the sight of white person on their streets? Come on now.
Well, you happen to be a 5th class citizen in a 6th world country and treated like a 7th class citizen the world over purely because of your nationality and reputation. Sit down![/s]
Posting retardation as usual. Who married wives rush out in the day look for white men? Who sales there daughters the white pedophiles? Who let's whites get away with every type of crime in there country but want hesitate to kill your fellow country if they did the same? Who has a Asian as the richest man in your country? Who has 1% of there non-native population owning over 90% of the countries "wealth". Who has a white man as the leader of there "aviation sector"� Who has Europeans buying huge amounts of your farm land to grow flowers? Who has to beg Chinese for everything little development project? I'd go further but the list is already pathetic enough. Face it your a colony with no future of your own. Nigerians are coons just becuase they don't want to be dominated like you villagers.
IronGalaxy: they always go outta their way to praise white people these ones. They have this unfounded superiority complex over other Africans but an acute inferiority towards white people. Very backward lots
Saying white/asians people control you monkeys colony and every move isnt praising them its pointing out a fact. Nigerians dont really care for white people like you villagers. Continue being a futureless proud 4th class citizen. Just because Nigerians don't want to be a colony like you that means Nigerians have an inferiority complex?
gallivant: The subject was economic migrants and foreign investors. Facts and the truth are your Waterloo.
Still playing stupid and running? Have you no shame? I guess are investors, bankers and politicians still see a little hope in you so will continue funding you and the rest for now.
gallivant: I see, you are trying to equate a smuggled through the desert Nigerian to British, American and Chinese foreign investors? They are not the same, sorry. I don't see any of the latter being auctioned in Libya like livestock.
That was a terrible dodge! Kenyans always running quick to change the point of a subject given. Pathetic!
kikuyu1: Gallivant,this is what you get for engaging a clown! Does it know there's not a single Indian at Kabete Springs,wherein the houses at the community go for 1.5 mn$? (I was there yesterday seeing a cuz). More importantly does it care!?
AskiaHarem: I present to you the African Development Bank.
Nigeria leading the economic charge in funding the development of nearly the entire continent of Africa since the 1960s. Helping out the "brethren" as much as possible.

gallivant: There you have it folks, wise askia is full of wisdom. Getting smuggled through the desert to Europe is a sign of a progressive mindset.
What I'm saying you small minded villager. Is that you can't to expand your businesses, influence, and culture outside of your city states. While "virtually" no for example "Kenyan/Botswanian" businesses or cultural influence; what little you have, operate outside your states while countries like Nigeria and South Africa have numerous of the continents most wealthiest businesses operating both within and outside the continent with cultural influence known around the world. It's no different than how American, Chinese, or British businesses operate on a global scale except obviously more efficiently than the countries listed. I hope that isn't to difficult for your brain to process.
Yobeezy: Association of Nigerian students in Kenya, I've never heard of a similar association of Kenyan students in Nigeria. In short, there are very little or no Kenyan students in Nigeria.
Becuase most Kenyans same as many other African countries have small minded villager mindsets and can't afford to travel beyond there border countries......
All these photos of various Nigerian cities and towns are beautiful. The citizens from the Crown Poverty Colony and other 1-2 city nations just can't comprehend this type of widespread development.
kikuyu1: With increasing financial literacy and decreased real estate returns more Kenyans are going for bonds. FYI,there was a time infrastructure bonds were going for 21% now 12% but still!
68816419: Nigerians breaking their own records as more records are tumbling at the ongoing African Games in Morocco with Nigerian athletes churning out fantastic performances. The latest is coming from Tobi Amusan who has broken a 20-year-old Games Record previously held by another Nigerian, Gloria Alozie.
Stevoh18: [s]A cry for Nigeria, the largest oil producer in Africa
Putting the World capital of poverty into perspective
Six People Fall Into Extreme Poverty in This Nation Every Minute

Nigeria has more extremely poor people than any other nation United Nations says Nigeria’s population will double by 2050

“I eat anything I see,” says Abdul Edosa, 30, as he sits under the bridge in the sprawling Nigerian commercial metropolis of Lagos, where he sleeps. “I beg money from people -- anything they give me, I eat.”
Edosa’s is a familiar voice in the country with the world’s largest number of extremely poor, which the United Nations defines as living on less than $1.90 a day. The estimated figure now is 87 million people, or almost half the population of Africa’s biggest oil producer, and unless something dramatic happens, it’s going to get much bigger. While poverty in India, which has five times the population, is declining, the number of destitute in Nigeria is believed to be growing by six people every minute, according to a recent paper from The Brookings Institution. The UN expects its population to double to 410 million by 2050, potentially swelling the ranks of the poor.
Edosa usually passes his nights with a handful of men and women on makeshift wooden beds under the bridge in Ikeja, the capital of Lagos state. Police trying to chase them away are a constant menace. A high-school dropout who did a stint as a television-repair apprentice, he now heads off each morning to look for odd jobs at building sites or hits the streets to beg.
Poverty started to deepen in Nigeria at the time of the 1970s oil-price boom that propelled it into the ranks of Africa’s wealthiest countries. As the elite grew richer through patronage networks in the petroleum industry, successive military and civilian governments neglected agriculture, manufacturing and education. A study prepared for the U.K. Department for International Development showed real annual per-capita income fell from $264 to $250 between 1970 and 1999 despite an estimated $230 billion in oil revenue.
The West African nation ranks 144 out of 180 countries on Transparency International’s 2018 corruption perceptions index.
“As soon as Nigeria discovered oil, its society and structure of governance has never been optimized to produce good leadership,” said Michael Famoroti, an economist and partner at Stears, a Lagos-based research and analytics firm. “The discovery of oil essentially made Nigerian leadership lazy. And we are still suffering from that legacy.”
Today, Nigeria ranks 157 out of 189 countries in the UN Human Development Index, which measures indicators such as health and inequality. Life expectancy is still only 54 years, although that’s an improvement from 46 years in 1999. About 80 percent of people who earn an income are active in the informal sector or have what the UN calls “vulnerable employment,” work that lacks social security or guarantees any kind of rights.
Between 72 and 91 percent of Nigeria’s poor are at risk of never improving their living standards significantly, according to Dapel.
That’s the situation Fatima Ali, 23, finds herself in. She’s stuck in a partly demolished slum outside the Aboki Estate in Lagos, making $1.40 a day selling roasted peanuts in front of the corrugated-iron shack she calls home. In the evening, she spends a fifth of her income on a jerrycan of fresh water to bathe her two young children. Breakfast consists of bread and tea; she rarely eats more than twice a day.
“I feel bad because some countries, even if they don’t have money, they use it to help their poor people,” Ali said as her baby girl played on her lap. “Here, they don’t join their heads together to help poor people. That’s Nigerian life.[/s]
Please remove the first picture featuring the Black Panther. Its disrespectful considering the whole theme of his series which revolves around Pan-Africanism, black independence, sovereignty, and culture. Theoretical Wakanda should never be compared with the Slum Crown Colony of the world.
