NairobiWalker:
It's not the number of floors. It is the height in meters and Nairobi has more skyscrapers than Lagos. FYI Lagos' tallest building NECOM tower will only be the 8th tallest in Nairobi.

The tallest buildings in Nairobi as at now 200 meters and 163 meters and they were just completed in 2016 and 2015 while Lagos tallest is160 meters and it was the 3rd tallest building in Africa. So, where did you get 8th tallest in Nairobi?

Below are the tallest building in Lagos which are over 100 meters. Most of them have been completed except Azuri which are still under construction.

We also have Cooperate towers 2 which is 37 stories and it is now under construction and with many more coming up.

The second picture is Eko pearl towers and third picture is Eko Towers.

AS u can see, there are several other cities in Kenya apart from Nairobi.

Thanks to all those who made it possible for me to know it but don't compare Ibadan with Nakuru in terms of infrastructures. Ibadan has gone far though they have been beaten by some cities in Nigeria in terms of beauty but when it comes to infrastructures they are top 5.

3. Kenya has several private airlines too - the airline Indian Kenya is generally more developed than in Nigeria.

4. False - Nigeria has only one university in the top twenty. University of Ibadan is number 19 and it does not always make it to top twenty.Sometimes Kenya's Kenyatta university and Strathmore university ranks ahead of Ibadan. See the list for yourself. http://www.webometrics.info/en/Ranking_africa

5. You must be high on something to even compare Nigeria's beaches and hotels to Kenya's - I mean, that's what Kenya is known for. Do your research well.

6. Nairobi, Mombasa, Nakuru, Kisumu, Eldoret - check them out and compare their beauty with those Nigerian cities.

7. I'm sorry but you seem uninformed on this. Lagos is nowhere close to Nairobi in terms of high-rises. Your tallest building is NECOM House at 160m only and you have less than 5 buildings over 100m. Check out Nairobi's buildings over 100m complete and under construction below.

1. Jabavu/Hass tower 1 - 66floors 300m (U/C)

NairobiWalker:
Luxembourg is not as known as Syria. That's my point. And no, Nigeria doesn't have more infrastructure projects than Kenya, maybe you only visit Nigeria's side of SSC. Visit Kenya's too.

Nigeria is building 1,000 kilometers of Standard gauge from Lagos to Kano and another 1,402 kilometers Standard gauge from Lagos to Calabar.

Nigeria is building 5 seaports

Nigeria is restructuring 4 international airports.

Nigeria is building news dams

Lagos is building Mono rails

Lagos is building Eko Atlantic city on a sand filled sea. May skyscrapers are going up there.

Can you please list Kenya's infrastructures projects?

NairobiWalker:
Which are these infrastructure you keep talking of? What is in Ibadan that's not in Nakuru? From Google maps Ibadan is just rusty roof and dusty roads. Meanwhile Nakuru has no unpaved roads. In terms of infrastructure and good roads and cleanliness Nakuru even beats Nairobi. You'll never find potholes in Nakuru.

You can see some pictures of Ibadan now.

3, do you know about hotel boom in Nigeria within 10 years? List your 10 best beaches and hotels. Show me their pictures before I agree.

5,it seems you don't understand the term highrise. Let me help you.

This is a list of cities with the most high-rise buildings.A A high-rise is defined as a structure at least 35 metres (115 ft) or 12 stories tall.[2] Cities with 100 or more high-rise buildings are listed here.

PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Nakuru county and town benefit from government education policies
1. All public secondary students have half their fee subsidised for 4 years. It is paid by the goverment.
2. Students receive full boarding accomodation
3. The students are provided with 4 meals a day
4. Free access to text book approved by KIE syllabus etc
5. Pupils in lower primary level enjoy free education
6. All level 1 primary pupils are given free laptops
7. All schools have a school bus exclusive for the students

Private schools are still part of Oyo state government education policies.

ChrisKels:
I think you are wrong here sir, the French didn't win it that year and Pogba didn't play in that team but the next team after that team. The notable players in the French team then were Cedric Bakambu now with Villarreal, who murdered our defence, Gael Kakuta of then Chelsea FC, Lacazette of now Lyon and of course Nathan Ligali. We paraded the likes of Uche Nwaofor and Daniel Uchechi (who gave us a false hope when he gave a last gasp equalizer against the French, then they murdered us in extra 30mins. In that same tourney we also played against England who also paraded another Nigerian in Reece Wabara who was with Mancity Academy, though he was stretchered off about 5mins into the encounter with us. That was the same year Sammy Ameobi left our camp for the English camp but was not paraded against us.

U r the arc guard of the hall of experience and a grey haired historian of the Nigerian football, I didn't expect u to goof as u just did. Take time before sir Forgiveness pounces.

TheGoodJoe:

You are funny. You wanted Keshi to ask our players to feign injuries after clear cases of repeated bias judgment.

So why suggest such ridiculous option if you feel losers complain when a ref is clearly bias.

I would not lie there is a lot of incoherence in the way you debate. What is excuse is for losers?

Matuidi committed a clear red card offence. There was no two ways about it. He went over the ball and shockingly stayed on the field. That was after a brutal tackle on Ambrose and an earlier tackle on Onazi.

Yet you come up with excuse is for losers. Simple. The ref was bias. Feigning injuries would compound the bad situation our players were in.

And please, Barcelona did not feign injuries in every game. They did it against physical sides to stop unfair tackles.

@bolded has helped to buttress my point. It is well. [center] grin

KenyaMan111:
It's inefficient and it's doing its job poorly.

"Poverty has risen in Nigeria, with almost 100 million people living on less than a $1 (£0.63) a day, despite economic growth, statistics have shown. The National Bureau of Statistics said 60.9% of Nigerians in 2010 were living in "absolute poverty" - this figure had risen from 54.7% in 2004"

The poverty in the land is determined by the amount of 'dollar' you live per day and the statistics shows that 100 million people are living on less than a $1 (0.63) a day which is 289.9 Naira at conversation rate of 460 Naira to a Dollar.

Now, let us multiple 289.9 ×30 days, we will get 8,694 Naira.

Meaning, 100 million Nigerians earns 8, 694 Naira per month.

What is the basis salary/minimum wages of a civil servant in Nigeria?

What is the population of civil services in Nigeria?

In short, no Nigerian illiterates will agree to earn 10k per month.

This statistics are not factual and unrealistic.

So, I will still maintain that Nigeria has more quality Universities than Kenya though I am not satisfied with the numbers of the standard universities we have.

Sure bud, 65% of Nigerians still live in abject destitution despite all those universities. Our measly quantity-wise universities has put a significant amount of Kenyans in the middle-class.

It doesn't reduce the quality of Nigeria's Universities.

You may go and read people's call of the support Barcelona enjoy from Referees. Maybe, that will make you understand why they can get away with feigning. If the referee is against your team, feigning injuries is suicidal. Or is that too complex for you to understand?

They won laurels with it before people begin open dem eyes. The point is, the tactics worked for them and it brought dem LAURELS. That is what matters.

You should be a little specific on what you really want to know about Nakuru town.
1. It is 180 miles from Nairobi city
2. It has a dual carriage way from Nairobi
3. It is a tourism based town
4. It has the Lake Nakuru national park

For more details

1,Consumer goods are Products that are purchased for consumption by the average consumer. Alternatively called final goods, consumer goods are the end result of production and manufacturing and are what a consumer will see on the[b] store[/b] shelf. Clothing, food, automobiles and jewelry are all examples of consumer goods.

Therefore, some of these goods most be easily available and in large quantity at an affordable price for average consumer. e.g Stores, shopping malls, fast food eateries, restaurants, markets, branded boutiques, car lots, car dealerships, antiques, home furniture show rooms, ecetera.

I want to see the numbers of stores, shopping malls, fast food eateries, restaurants, markets, Car lots, car dealerships, home furniture show rooms etcetera.

2, Economic environment; it consists of external factors in a business market and the broader economy that can influence a business. it can be divided in microeconomics environment and macroeconomic environment.

macroeconomic influences are broad economic factor that either directed or indirectly affects the entire economy and all its participants. These factors include such things as; Taxes, interest rates, currency exchange rates, inflation, consumer discretionary income, saving rates, consumer confidence levels, recession, depression and unemployment rate.

microeconomics factors influence how your businesses makes decision. factors are; Market size, Demand, supply, Competitors, Suppliers and Distribution chain, such as retailer stores.

I want to see the effects of the good infrastructures that led many industries to invest in Nakuru. I want to see the industries and companies.

3, Housing; Housing generally refers to the social problem that ensuring members of the society have a home in which to live, whether this is a house or some form of dwelling, shelter or lodging. i.e housing must be affordable to an average member of the society.

Give me the list of Estates in Nakuru.

4, health and medical consideration; Health is the level of functional or metabolic efficiency of a living organism. In humans it is the ability of individuals or communities to adapt and self-manage when facing physical, mental or social challenges.[1] The World Health Organization (WHO) defined health in its broader sense in its 1948 constitution as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.

ii. medical consideration; relating to the study or practice of medicine; "the medical profession'' in the said cities.

I want to the level of Nakuru health sector.

5, Natural environment; The natural environment encompasses all living and non-living things occurring naturally on Earth or some region thereof. It is an environment that encompasses the interaction of all living species. Climate, weather, and natural resources that affect human survival and economic.

You go win for these one.

6, Political and Social Environment; Government actions which affects the operations of a company or business. These actions may be on local, regional, national or international level. Business owners and managers pay close attention to the political environment to gauge how government actions will affect their company. This has to do security issues that deals political violence, robbery, kidnapping ecetera.

ii, Social environment; the environment developed by humans as contrasted with the natural environment; society as a whole, especially in its relation to the individual.

The environment developed by humans as contrasted with the natural environment; society as a whole, especially in its relation to the individual. e,g if evidence for nepotism, tribalism is present in such a complex social environment or the tremendous stress of poverty and social isolation, then such cities lacks social relationship.

I want to know the state of security in the town of Nakuru

7, Recreation; Recreation is an activity of leisure, leisure being discretionary time.[1] The "need to do something for recreation" is an essential element of human biology and psychology.[2] Recreational activities are often done for enjoyment, amusement, or pleasure and are considered to be "fun".

You know what I mean.

8, Schools and Education; Education in its general sense is a form of learning in which the knowledge, skills, values, beliefs and habits of a group of people are transferred from one generation to the next through storytelling, discussion, teaching, training, and or research. Education may also include informal transmission of such information from one human being to another.

Education is commonly and formally divided into stages such as preschool, primary school, secondary school and then college, university or apprenticeship. Therefore, schools with good schools from preschool, primary school, secondary school and then college and up university or apprenticeship are highly considered.

I want to know the standard of Education from primary to University in Nakuru.

9, Public services and Transportation; A public service is a service which is provided by government to people living within its jurisdiction, either directly (through the public sector) or by financing provision of services. The term is associated with a social consensus (usually expressed through democratic elections) that certain services should be available to all, regardless of income.

This is where the performance of the governments comes in. In terms of;
Electricity
Education
Emergency services
Environmental protection
Fire service
Gas
Health care
Law enforcement
Military
Postal service
Public broadcasting
Public library
Public security
Public transportation
Public housing
Social services

I didn't say it's a world class city - it's actually crap compared to the likes of Singapore and Hong Kong but everyone who's visited Nairobi and Lagos will place Nairobi ahead of Lagos.

It is because Nairobi is the capital of Kenya while Lagos is not.

NairobiWalker:
Actually Nairobi has more high-rises than Lagos - FYI the tallest building under construction in Africa is in Nairobi.

Highrise is determined by the numbers of stories of a building. The standard is 12 stories and I think Lagos has more than Nairobi.

Good to know Nairobi is building the tallest in Africa.

Hearing about a place doesn't make it better. We all hear of Syria but very few people know Luxembourg, does that mean Syria is better than Luxembourg? Stop talking of hearing and go through the photos posted on this thread then go to Skyscrapercity and see for yourself or better yet travel to Kenya and see for yourself.

You are right on one side but also wrong on the other side.

Who doesn't know Luxembourg? Who doesn't know London, Cape Town, Paris, Lagos, Abuja, Calabar, New York etcetera?

A city is known for good reasons or bad reasons. In this case the cities I listed are known for good reasons.

When it comes to Skyscrapercity, I frequently visit that site and I think Nigeria has more skyscraper projects than Kenya.

You may prove me wrong.

Please go through the thread and see the beating Nakuru (fourth largest in Kenya) gave Ibadan (your second or third biggest)

Quality of a city is determined by the available infrastructures.

Please, list the infrastructures Nakuru has that Ibadan doesn't have.

Is Ibadan better than Nakuru for those still. Debating

I think Ibadan is still better than Nakuru in terms of infrastructures.

What are the infrastructures Nakuru has that Ibadan doesn't have?
