You beat us how - you're 200M strong with twice our land size - and yet only 14M of you plus visitors flew - in Kenya - we are merely 50M - and yet 4M flew domestically - and 6M internationally.

For you to beat us - you need 40M plus passengers.

Look at South Africa -more than 40 million passengers have passed through these airports during the 2017/2018 financial year.

Now you can say South Africa thoroughly whipped us - and for us in 10-15yrs we need to grow our air traffic from 10m to 40m - which is pretty possible.

Nigeria is not even on our RADAR. You're just a more populated NIGER or CHAD republic.

Anything football - you beat us - don't even go there - but other sports we beat you. Shows us your RUGBY stadiums? or Crickets? Or Althetics or Hockey Stadiums?

rvp2018:
You're 200M people with about only 14M departing or arriving on planes. Kenya with 50M has 10M people arriving or departing. Do the ratios. 20:1 and 5:1; It's not even close.

South Africa is on another level - and we are giving them 10-15 yrs before we start a thread like this with them.

Just like Skyscrappers or tall buildings - Kenya will beat you senseless in matters aviation.

NairobiWalker:
These airports are good for the size of towns they serve. Show me a town in Nigeria the size of Manda with an airstrip, leave alone an airport. (Manda town has a population of 3500)

NairobiWalker:
Nigeria has no airports dude. 14M passengers for a country with 200M people is embarrassing. In fact you have the lowest number for countries with over 100M people.

NairobiWalker:
How many passengers are your airports struggling to reach?

NairobiWalker:
I see nothing imposing about those one building airports you keep posting. The only difference is they're newer than most of Kenya's but their efficiency is wanting considering they handle only 14M people. I even wonder why you guys keep bragging how you're the most travelled Africans when all your airports handle only 14M passengers.

rvp2018:
This is a forum. If you want private conversation - pm or dm the guy - what a.hole.

rvp2018:
Already as we speak JKIA is at nearly 1m passenger per month - times 12 =12M. Oliver Tambo Joburg is doign 21M.

NairobiWalker:
What's the point of having 100 international airports when they all handle a measly 14M pessengers? JKIA alone is projected to handle 8M this year.

NairobiWalker:
It is not weak but it's weaker than Japan's, just like yours is not weak but it's weaker than Kenya's.

rvp2018:
This is the airstrip that UK's Prince william and Kate used when they went to engaged. They flew to that airstrip. Lewa conservancy is owned by Billionaire British family. It not that they cant afford a better looking airport - but animals comes first.

Jonraid:
Eldoret International airport is strictly for cargo.

And that is Kitale Airstrip not Kitale Airport,can you show us pictures of Nigeria's airstrips?

rvp2018:
We are in 2018 - and JKIA is approaching 1M passengers per month - per annum - you're looking at 12M passenger soon.

And our next biggest Airport is Moi Interntional Airport - Mombasa. Then Kisumu. Then Eldoret. Then Malindi. Then so many others.Wilson Airport in Nairobi is more busy than Mombasa but is for domestic travel.

Our 2017 figures are here. Domestic 4M. International 6M. Total 10M.

rvp2018:
Beyond your pagrade. Which year are talking about Boko-Haram. You have 50% of Nigeria being mulsim - yet I can bet kenya BEAT Nigeria in ISLAMIC BANKING Go back to school - you bloody illiterate fulani cattle herder employed by Buhari to look after his goats in Abuja.

rvp2018:
Don't abuse the word world class. You airports and aicraft are without the world worse. You have black out in airports, conveyor belts don't work, come on idiot. You know where to find ranking for aiport services - and you start finding nigeria from the bottom.

rvp20183:
why would pop not matter.Look at banking.You domestic market is 200m.Ours 50m.Yet our banking assets as of last year was 40b dollarsand yours is 100b.So tell me which one is bigger.100b collected from 200m or 40b collected from 50m people.Can kenya argue it better than Botswana or Namibia or Mauritus because we beat them in anything aggregate and keep a straight face.Of course not..only idiots from Nigeria can do that.We can only aim for a similar sized South Africa..and they beat us 4 times or more in most stuff.

rvp2018:
You know ACI - but you don't know how to find credible link. Maybe it ahead - I don't know IN what terms - but find us CREDIBLE source of data - I doubt LAGOS MMA will beat JKIA in anything - in any rank - passengers, quality of air services, number of flights, name it.

rvp2018:
Find us proper CREDIBLE links - not google list that anybody can spawn.

LAGOS got nothing on Nairobi's JKIA. And Nairobi still has Wilson Airport which is our second busiest for domestic flights.

Kenya is miles ahead of Nigeria in Aviation. Try compete in Yams and such tubers.

rvp2018:
Nigeria - don't know start on Aviation.

JKIA - carries more passengers than any Nigeria airport.

2018 ACI - Nairobi (JKIA) won the Most Improved Airport in Africa (all categories).

JKIA won Best Airport in Africa and 38th globally - according to AirHelp Worldwide.

Don't start on airport sector - Nigeria is totally crap.

NairobiWalker:
Most of your photos are simply purposely zoomed to create a deceptive illusion but when you check the whole airport is crap. Most of the airport's you post are also white elephants handling an embarrassing number of passengers. Here is Illorin airport for example, looks like a go-down for a maize packaging business.

OkpekeBeauty:
Yes thats why they sealed it. Na Igbo people dey there.

TayserMahiri:
Did you read the caveat at the bottom?

(This story was corrected to show that Green Africa deal is provisional, not firm in paragraph three)

All your airports are complete $hit.

mtisTheQubit:
Abuja airport

GERALD710:
Is even uglier than Eldoret Airport.
Really,if this is what you call a classy airport,then I wonder how thw ugly Nigerian airports look like

TayserMahiri:
Nigerian airplanes

Jonraid:
The iron sheets collection it is.

The Lazizi Premier beats the airport hotel you just showed.
