Rankings in terms of what?

Cos best university is University of Capetown, Witswatersrand University, university of Johannesburg, university of Stellenbosch... In that order

Not anymore

GERALD710:
Not really.
Nigeria, Ghana, Uganda and Egypt actually count their diaspora coming to visit their home countries as International Tourists.
Kenya and South Africa do not. Kenya has not done so since 2010.When our diaspora visit from the West and the Middle East, they are counted as Domestic Tourists as they do not enter the country with a foreign visa(Kenyan law establishes that a Kenyan passport holder is treated as a local, even if they have a second passport).
A look at the "tourists" of Nigeria. Most are Nigerian diaspora.
Same to Ghana although Ghana is trying to attract African Americans.
In Kenya, there are no Kenyans counted as International Tourists, even from the diaspora. You have to be an actual foreigner to be counted as an International tourist.
If we use the same methodology as Ghana and Nigeria, then Kenya in 2015 had 3.4 million tourists as we add both domestic tourists from abroad visiting(usually multiple times a year, especially from the Middle Eastern diaspora hence the high number) plus our international ones.
Uganda also has a flawed methodology, East Africans simply crossing the border are counted as tourists and thus the largest number of tourists are actually Kenyans there.
Plus, what attractions does Nigeria have that East and South Africa do not have on a much much bigger scale exactly??
West Africa decimated its wildlife long ago, virtually every major African animal species on the continent is found in East, Central and Southern Africa today.
Kenya has 20% of its land under National Parks and Reserves and a further 16% under Wildlife Conservatories.
Kenya for example has the largest black rhino population, the third largest elephant population after Botswana and S. A. The second largest lion population after S. A. The largest giraffe, bufallo and of course wildebeest and zebra population etc etc
Nigeria barely has 10%.
When it comes to landscapes, I am yet to see any beach, natural feature or natural landscapes from West Africa win any awards.
Kenya Tanzania and South Africa monopolise the list from the Karoo of South Africa to the Northern Kenya region to Diani beach to the beaches of Zanzibar and of course the Mara migration spectacle.
Nigeria has the history of slave trade(we do as well at the Coast) that's it.
International tourists hardly know to go to Nigeria.
Kenya is ever in every major news publication globally when it comes to tourism. I would like to see how many Nigerian attractions appear in the major news publications and tourist publications on a monthly basis.
South Africa appears every week.
Kenya and Egypt appear every month.
Never seen Nigeria anywhere.

According to the WWF Kenya has fewer than a thousand Black Rhino...... South Africa has over 2000 Black Rhino.

tsdarkside:
stfu....
it was the zulu warriors that weakened the british army in various battles....

dont even think your type is something special....
british army would have destroyed boers back then....

You escaped your cell again I see!!

mtisTheQubit:
too late we past that..we are now officially comparing rocks..does your capital city have a nice looking rock? if ya dont have then shut up

We have a mountain.... That looks like a table, does Nairobi have such mountain?

samorobo:
You equally partook in the argument didn't you...infact you are among the chief pioneers of it..

I know

Quick question,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,why the fvck are we arguing which City is greener?? like as in the colour green not even in terms of pollution?

I mean even for this thread, its a pretty fvcking ret@rded thing to argue about!

DrMiki:
Did you ever EMBARRASS yourself trying to speak in public?

Or have you been dodging, running away from any opportunity to speak in front of a crowed?

Maybe you've even tried in some occasions to act like you can "handle this" but suddenly - - your legs starts shaking, your voice becomes dry, you start stammering, even forgetting your points or jumping from one point to another entirely unconnected one.

Maybe, your mind suddenly went BLANK.

You know the feeling.

It's really embarrassing.

It may have cost you some big opportunities to meet new people and make more friends, impress an audience, attract more customers or simply earn the admiration of peers and colleagues.

Maybe you're at the edge of losing your job or prominent position...

This "public speaking thing" is making you feel so unhappy... Every time you remember it.

But you're not alone.

The fear of public speaking is the #1 fear all over the world.

8 out of every 10 persons you meet has this fear and struggles with it.

I myself also struggled with this problem many years ago.

You see, I was a once skinny and timid young man born and brought up in one of the most impoverished suburbs in Anambra State.

I used to dread the whole idea of speaking in the public.

And I actually hated going out to public occasions. I feel like everyone is staring at me and they must be saying some nasty things about me.

So what changed my life?

Training ✅

Training ✅

I got the opportunity to be trained by someone who understands how to help people overcome fear and speak in public.

In the next 5 years after that I invested great amount of time, money and other resources into learning and mastering public speaking, marketing, sales, persuasion, negotiation, influence and leadership.

Today my life has changed so much.

I became one of the highest sought after executive presentation coach working with high profile individuals such politicians, ministers, business men and women, government agencies and some very successful companies in Nigeria.

Austine1213:
Pretoria is greener than Johannesburg

I lived in Pretoria most my life....and thus I can say imo joburg is greener........could be wrong though

Problemkid1:
Abuja is

yet officially Durban is..... Hell even Joburg is greener

Largest man mad forest (Johannesburg)

mtisTheQubit:
Thanks nairobiwalker
If any African here got a city greener than ths please post we see...Photos only...an no gossip or acting stupid

Durban.... And Johannesburg (largest man mad forest)

Problemkid1:
Abuja, the most greeness city in the whole of Sub Sahara Africa

Durban is

68816419:
Abuja is the Greenest city in Africa

Durban is

Carmit:
I never said it was biased.
You just don't cite your home sites in arguments.

When its a massive and respected news outlet there is nothing wrong with using home sites.

However in this case news24 was quoting an international source.... Hence your argument doesn't even hold water on this account.

samorobo:
But you were fighting.me as though it is spotless..

Did I say it was spotless? Did I say Joburg was the cleanest..... Oh wait,i didn't say that

Btw I posted a number of pics of Hillbrow, hence you can judge for yourself

Carmit:
The link text clearly says 'Travel24'....thats SA.... To win these kinda arguments you should cite neutral sources..

If you think News24 is biased towards South Africa then you got it all wrong...

Centrifude:
I don't know why South Africans decided to get involved in this shit, but since we're all here I'd like to correct My Country.

Joburg has to be one of the filthiest and most DANGEROUS places i go to, it is Disgusting !!!!

from the time you enter Hillbrow, then the surrounding areas of Small street and MTN tank rank and Bree Taxi Rank, thoseplaces are overflowing with hawkers who dump their sh*t on the ground, people piss in the middle of the streets, people steal manhole covers then someone will come and vandalise the water pipes and Cables.

The Joburg you see on those pictures is the Rich side or Joburg, the rest of it is cover in filth and every Crime you can imagine.


Joburg is Disgusting even the rich and decent sides need security guards posted at almost every corner just to keep people safe.



If you're a foreign national looking to come JHB i advise you not to, that place is shit, i f*cking hate it with a passion, i see all these things everyday.

Don't go to Joburg!!!

Now now...... If you haven't noticed, this thread is all about gloating of your sh1t hole you live in.......this thread isn't about the real sh1t that goes on, on the ground, on this thread poverty, crime, and filth doesn't exist in your sh1t hole
So basically it's the rebranded strongest military thread

P. S I drove through Hillbrow not to long ago and it's not nearly as bad as you make it out to be, Mashaba did a great job cleaning up the city when he was in charge.....

Maybe you had a bad experience in Joburg, hence the hate as for me...In pSouth Africa I've never been robbed, mugged or had my car or house broken in to, I've lost my wallet 4 or 5 times(once lost it at a landfill the other time in Ikageng township) with all my money in it, got it back every time with all my money.

Just this December(18th to be exact) I left my laptop in Nandos..... For the whole holiday I thought it was at my office, only to realise on the 6th of Jan that it was in fact not at the office, had a gut feel it was at my local nandos, went there and got it back after nearly a month.

On the otherhand, went to Australia for 2 weeks, got my wallet stolen..... Twice!!

TayserMahri:

I'm Trolling mate Don't make a scene, don't want the others to find out.

kabe1:
You have a habit of complaining aimlessly.

I guess they don't do it in South-Africa?


.................well, here you go, South-African civilian wearing South-African cammo as his everyday work dress.

Ive seen the photo and the civilian was arrested if you were wondering

And its against the law for none SANDF members to wear SANDF uniform

One of Africas cleanest cities, and Africas economic powerhouse

Johannesburg :

samorobo:
Jiln5 I don't want to talk too much...if not I would have disgrace you on the lie you are telling...

I will make sure you choke on it...

Sammy calling me a liar ohhhhh the fvcking irony!!!!

Looks like you forgot when you lied about the Proforce Ara.......

P.S I did not lie, I did not say Johannesburg is the cleanest city in the world or even Africa, neither did any of my sources state that

I don't lie boy, my name is not Samorobo

samorobo:
I do need to open that link when I can vividly see "co.za".....
Keep decieving yourself in you aim...

More excuses typical

CaptainStephen:
Him and other celebrities are taking part in a line of events to celebrate the Armed forces remeberance day.

But why are they wearing army uniforms......would piss me off if I was risking my life for my country and some civi is allowed to wear my uniform.

samorobo:
Maybe this is hillbrow some 10 to 20 years ago or you are just cherry picking.... hillbrow of today is actually dirty, disorganised, people trading illegally on pedestrian lanes, dangerous, quite stressful and chaotic..... although it still maintains its good road network

Hillbrow today....... Ex Mayor Herman Mashaba did a great job cleaning up the city!

Joburg

Apparently a very dirty city

Interesting fact, Johannesburg is the largest man mad forest in the world.

More Joburg

Problemkid1:
Post the good area of joburg please

ok

Toju200:

samorobo:
Now dance to it....

Let's do this again....

MOGADHISU, sana'a and lome is more liveable bthan NYC....how does that also sound to your ear...
