obaaderemi:
Wow!Lagos is furious these days despite the wasted years of the military which allowed other nations to erode our headstart.I didnt know those two monsters were topped out already.I was in Victoria Island in 2008 when the project started and i thought it was a crazy idea.Now i know better.Every large modern city needs such.And this is still lagos vs kenya,what if we add abj and ibadan,with its 52year old grey 105m monster.

I don't believe in Him, but I like some of his attributes. Not his big fan though.

So you counted 25? Can you tell us which was your first and last floor to count? Did you count the dome structure at the top? It also caters for the height! As Karmakill told you, there were to be two penthouses at the top initially, which was revised in the final render. You should see some extra protrusion at the left edge of the top. So if you counted from the front side, know you need to add an extra floor, I hope you have some sense of scale. There you go 25 + 1 = 26. That is 26 floors without counting the dome structure. I am sure you counted the basement!

Jay254:

Number 3,6,8,10,11,12,plus Lemarc and Teleposta which were left out..Clearly that bring the number of skyscrapers in Nairobi to 8 and not 5...

UON does not produce scammers like you

Jay254:
I belive you are the most pathetic and dishonest person to reason with.. You reduce the number of high rise in Nairobi from 108 complete to 72 and increase for lagos from 72 to 126...

mtis:
really forgiveness ya kind of guys who drag Africa down..talk of 69 or 70 floors not mere 31 0r even 50 ..that cheap

mtis:
dude we talking of 200 an ya still stuck on 100's..

obaaderemi:
Pls,what is the height of the eko black pearl tower?i heard it's topped out already at 24floors.

obaaderemi:
Are you sure of this?I think Nigeria has more than 8 and Kenya has more than 6.Unless you knock off I&m off kenya's list.(I&m has been listed severally as 99.1m)then you have to add ThePrism to kenya's list.What is wrong with the list below? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_in_Africa Maybe we should just let this building thing rest because no one is backing down,the shape shifter least of all.Trust his untruthful brothers not to urge him to face reality.Even when two of them stole the italian space centre and said it belonged to kenya,the knowledgeable ones among them still refused to correct them until the kids got disgraced.I think you should just let it go,bro.We could revisit the matter in 10 yrs time like taysa sed

TayserMahiri:
G.O.D !!!

How many did you count? You are the only one who is disagreeing so tell us how many you counted.

Please, if you are smoking, quit for a while. Hitler quit smoking in 1924, now its your time !

TayserMahiri:
I have never come across such a determined loser bro. The point of arguing is not winning, rather to arrive at the right conclusion.

TayserMahiri:
Man, you will get buried yourself

NairobiWalker:
I told you guys Lagos has nothing on Nairobi. We did a similar thing on skyscrapercity which was more mature - less patriotism and more content and everyone noted that Lagos disappointed. In terms of high-rises in African we talk Jo'burg, Cairo, Luanda, Nairobi, Durban, Cape Town and lately Dar es salaam

NairobiWalker:
.......and the hen comes back to roost. The trouble I went through explaining to this dude the different redesigns that led to LéMac increasing from the initial 22 floors 87m to current 26 floors 126m? lol. All I got were childish Buhahahas as some other idiot cheered him up. At least you've been humbled.

shervydman:
haha......u and this ur skyscraper wahala.

NairobiWalker:
You need your brain checked. What kind of question is this? Where else do you expect me to get the buildings from? go back to my list and check where I got them from. Idiot.

freshest4live:
American also from their statistics have continually noted Nigerians are the most educated foreigners in the U.S. That again is another huge reputation, it means we even do better than black Americans in their land.
Nigerians are also experts in so many cyber security technologies abroad.
Except for Germany(to an extent) in Europe, U.K, U.S, Canada has so many outstanding record breaking Nigerian students. This is not to say other Africans or nationalities do not surpass Nigeria sometimes, but rather to make it clear that our bad name and good names come side by side.
Now in the U.S, our bad name is centered on internet scam or 419, but let's face it, why do these white men keep falling for these scams? Scams from Africans whom they refer to as people with lower lQ's, so how then do the yahoo boys outsmart them? The scammers know many of these whites are not only greedy but also not really smart, this of course doesn't excuse their criminal activities and how it soils our name Abroad in the long run.

NairobiWalker:
Similarly according to the very same Emporis, Eagle house and Conoil house is the same building. The kid forgiveness lists it as two different buildings.

NairobiWalker:
Lol.....this dude. You know the problem with you buddy? You're such a stupid liar that people get tired of arguing with you and when they do, you think it's because you beat them and get excited over it especially when that O guy of yours cheers you on it.

Okay......let me try to get sense into you for the last time using your emporis site since you've made it your alpha and omega source.

Now, according to you, Lagos has 8 buildings over 100mm and you claim emporis is your source. Well According to emporis, Lagos has only 5. See first photo.

According to you Lagos has 8 skyscrapers, according to Emporis Lagos has 6.

According to you, Lagos has 120 high-rises, well according to your emporis source, Lagos has only 72 high-rises. See second photo and the link for Lagos on Emporis is right here.
https://www.emporis.com/city/100094/lagos-nigeria

Onto Nairobi.

According to you Nairobi has 6 skyscrapers, according to Emporis Nairobi has 15. See third picture

According to you, Nairobi has 76 high-rises, according to Emporis Nairobi has 81.

Here is the link for Nairobi.
https://www.emporis.com/city/100051/nairobi-kenya

Now, according to your Emporis source.....

Skyscrapers

Nairobi - 15
Lagos - 6

High-rises
Nairobi - 81
Lagos - 72.

Next I'll burst your bubble on Mombasa, PH, Abuja, Eldoret, Kisumu.


Lets see your lies and stupidity now.

NairobiWalker:
Go back to my post, I listed complete towers, topped out towers and under construction towers. I listed Prism under topped out and Parliament under under construction towers (though it's topped out ATM). Now please stop quoting me, I prefer people with a brain that they use.

optimistickenya:
Nigerians sorry but am speaking the truth.

My dear Kenyans...why are we really wasting our time engaging in meanigless round and round nonsense.
We all know who is in a better place. Last I checked I still have water, elec and a proper sewer system and I am safe and I exist in an environment where as a young Kenyan anything is possible.
Fuel is stable, been paying the same water bill for three years, I have a fully functioning school and hospital near me, the roads are okay...not the best but better than 5yrs ago,unga just came down.
Yet we are comparing ourselves to a country where they still think mono rails are cool and better looking trains are the ish.
When they should be thinking can the trains carry cargo?...do mono rails carry the max number of passenger to and fro? How is this train or road going to affect the greater economy and not just building things cause they look better. A country that can sell oil in the tunes of tens of billions and still have a 30% deficit in their budget and lack foreign currency!
So Kenyans...let us move on. Lets keep working..if we don't we might come to see powdered milk as okay and actually be comfortable with it...when we all know powdered milk is for when there is a crisis!

Now I get it. Don't tell me you speak Dutch?

I know kenyans have a very good reputation abroad even before Obama, unlike our Nigerian brodas . Our hospitality and sports have been positive to the world. Now we even have senators in Ausie and Germany! When we start doing well in ice hockey I dont know what will happen.

Jay254:
Finally you get to admit.

Jay254:
