It's a lie.

Is this truly NairobiWalker?

You're like an ugly woman - she complains that you don't compliment her yet when you do she thinks you're lying to her.

naijalander:
I think the English language a tool of expression not a measure on intellect.

Also keep your Kenyan disrespect for women out of this forum. No need to call a woman a b#tch cos she's beating you at argument.

When you can't express yourself in a language that's the main language of instruction in all your academic institutions and your national language then that's stupidity.

obaaderemi:
Hope u have learnt something in ur English language class today.don't ever make that mistake with possessives again.now,run along.ur milk is by the sink,dawg.

Ooh......do you have to say everything I say? You're stupid anyway, you can't make up your own stuff. I was serious when I said you need remedial English classes - it wasn't just a banter.

obaaderemi:
This is not the commonwealth short story competition,dawg.Hahahaha.talking about butchering English language,would u mind editing the error in ur post b4 a kid sees it and is misled?it should be 'Queen's language' and not 'Queens language'.it is unforgivable in English grammar when u leave apostrophes out of possessives.u see,dawg,u butchered the Queen herself.i wouldn't have minded but since u want to turn this to a writing competition then i would advice that u ensure ur jacket is buttoned and ur fly is zipped b4 u walk out.nameen?u are clearly the stupid one,gringo.

Are you happy now little boy?

arinzeejikonye:
NICE CITY, looks like kaduna

Thanks .....Kaduna is pretty cool too.

obaaderemi:
AWWWW!that hurts me so bad.u see,this blow is below the belt.now,let me say this-yes,i work hard and if those menial jobs u listed are what i do actually-well,it gives me pride because it would have hurt me if you had inferred that my employment was unclean.gosh!are u mad or just plain stupid?those are honest jobs u listed there.and to think i am uneducated,well,i can only say,'sorry'.btw,i already put ur fellow ignorant kenyan in his place on the grammar thing.if u love me so much u can't ignore me and keep mentioning 'obaaderemi' even when i wasn't quoting u,then don't give ur bro that advice.

You must be feeling happy now - you just responded to someone who's better than you.

obaaderemi:
Finally!my loyal dawg is back!someone say,'hurray!'i thought i lost u and had to put up a lost-pet poster on nairaland.knew it you would come back even if it would take you days.did u run away because i said u were going blind on nairaland due to ur obsession with nigerians?awww,come on.i was only joking.now,ahem,why do u keep paraphrasing every term i use?i talked about 'pulling ur strings' and you quickly used the word'puppet'.who wouldn't know the two go together?even a pig ignorant ninny like u do.Again,i said ur head was 'buried in my arse' and u quickly used 'ur d..ck'(what d..ck?)in place of 'arse'.u must be very uncreative.anyway,i am just 'ribbing' u.(nigerians and their sense of humour.Lawd,forgive us)and pls,lift ur head out of ur palm.come on.

I understand your excitement. Stupid people love it when somebody who's better than them responds to them. Now would you mind getting yourself into some remedial English class? You're butchering the Queens language.

naijalander:
Yet there are some restaurants in Karen where it's hard to get served. Was it not last year some people complained about a Chinese restaurant doing that?

The last time something of that sort TRIED to happen in Kenya, we raised alarm and law took its course. Thank you for reminding us that.

gallivant:
You can't even type properly, should I take you seriously? I can't stand low intelligence.

Ignore this Obadeeremi guy, he's probably a small kid or a jobless school dropout. Dude keeps talking of a hard day's job yet he can't even type in proper grammar. I guess the hard day's job he speaks of is pushing wheelbarrows or maybe gate-keeping or maybe luggage carrier. It's obvious this dude is not educated.

obaaderemi:
OH, after a hard day's work,i just got the chance to log in and whose head do i see buried in my arse?my lovely dog and puppet.now,what's he saying?he is lying or just playing dumb.ur post shows clearly i used the term 'pulling your strings' 1st.that's why u could say i wasn't pulling any strings.now any idiot will tell u 'pulling strings' and puppets go together.u dont need me to spell that out to u.so,u see,i used it first.u,never disappoint me,dawg.

*yawn*

What a garbage of bullshit. It's so tiring when an Id.iot who can barely express themselves fluently can't get off you dick.

Henrydone:
Nigeria produces more electricity than kenya,ghana with a lesser population also produce more electricity than kenya,Ghana still experience power cut,not to talk of kenya, Nigeria ranks among top 100 electricity producer in d world around 60 sometin kenya does not rank http://www.indexmundi.com/g/r.aspx?t=100&v=79&l=en not just producing more electricity than kenya but also consuming more electricity than kenya https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List-of-countries-by-electricity-consumption. Nigeria also produce more electricity per capita than kenya as in power produced per person http://www.economicshelp.org/blog/59881/economics/list-of-countries-energy-use-per-capita/ kenya is no ways better than nigeria

Why don't you talk to a Nigerian that has actually lived in Kenya if you think we are making this stuff up? Your list talks about ENERGY not ELECTRICITY - you consume more energy due to your generators. It is way more expensive for somebody to run their own generator than be connected to a stable national grid. I would spend more money running a generator in my home for a day than what I spend on electricity for three months.

obaaderemi:
Wow.u jumped really high this time around.sorry if i hurt u.u asked for it.but i never complained to anyone about hating anyone,least of all a specimen like u.andbravo for using the 'puppet thing' style like i do.u are a fast learner but u can jump higher than this.now,jump again.

See, this is the first post the word puppet was used and it's not your post.

NairobiWalker:
Lol....still following me around?

You're not pulling strings buddy - you have a bad obsession on me and you're following me everywhere quoting my posts and attacking me after I burst your bubble on your foolish arguments and stupid ways of trying to get a girl online until I schooled you on how to get a woman. You're practically the puppet, not the puppet master. You can respond to this too and feel good about yourself when you log in "for the second time" for the 100th time.

It's even absurd you, somebody who can't express himself coherently in simple english can delude himself that he can come up with a phrase to be copied. I don't blame you though - simple everyday words to me are things that amuse you.

I don't blame you that you forgot I used the term puppet and puppet master firat, i learn fast, you forget fast - you can now tell who has a better brain. Now little puppet - have a go.

obaaderemi:
U are still here on nairaland?u see u are the one following me and other nigerians around.we will give u a pension.keep it up,my dear,puppet.now jump again,dawg!

Kkkkk......now you think Nairaland belongs to you? Only losers and people who haven't achieved anything in their life are extremely possessive of things that belong to people they deem related to them. You can't even type proper grammar dude. I only came here to put some sense into your ignorance when you started whining and complaining to everyone how you hate me - you aren't even posting anything of importance other than responding ad-hominems to my post or whining about me to someone. Your puppet master just pulled the strings - you can play now little silly puppet.

obaaderemi:
I knew you wouldn't disappoint,dawg.each time i pull ur string u jump.i cant remember mentioning any ethiopian lady in my post,did i?what lady?how come u still got that in mind if u aren't the obsessed one?i just logged in for the second time today and here u are again everywhere on this 'crappy' site started by a nigerian of all people.wow!talking about obsession.ur productively at work must have really declined all thanks to nairaland.u are gonna jump again,dawg.trust me and very soon u will qualify for a pension on nairaland.

Lol....still following me around?

Kibera is the largest slum at 2.5km². And the government found out that there are 170k people there during the census.
Mathare valley slums are located in an old quarry 2km long and 300m wide . Do your math. Is that 401sq km to you?? Others are waaaaaaaaaay smaller.
See how salty you are, trying to inflate the figures

Nairobi minus Nairobi National Park, Ngong Forest and Karura Forest is about 400 sq. km. According to this dude the whole of Nairobi is Mathare. He is either a madman or his hatred for Kenya is psychological. I don't know what really happened to him but he must have gone through some bad shit in Kenya - and I mean some REALLY bad shit - like someone sodomized him in Kenya or something.

iblawi:
What makes the buildings crappy? They are old buildings that's all.

Go check out the meaning of slum first.

A slum is a heavily populated urban informal settlement characterized by substandard housing and squalor. While slums differ in size and other characteristics, most lack reliable sanitation services, supply of clean water, reliable electricity.

From the definition above, Ajegunle is even more of a slum than Kibera - Kibera has a constant supply of electricity.

Pavore9:
There is no blanket answer to that as it depends on who you ask. Personally, Nairobi favours me because of what am into as l have more access to opportunities because it is a hub when it comes to what am into.

I live with a certain measure of certainty as l take so many things here for granted. My stay in Nairobi also favours some relatives back in Lagos as l use my local contacts to help them market products that are local to Nigerians but yield more when sold in Kenya as there are stuffs that sells locally for N500 but sells easily for $18 in Nairobi and it is no big deal to the buyers.

There are many Nigerians coming over for studies as one can get a bachelors degree in 2 yrs 8months and after graduation, can relocate to other parts of the world easily and legally (if you know your way)

There are aspects of the Nigerian life, l will never exchange for anything because it keeps one grounded.

It is not about competition but we should have an open mind to benefit from each other as a lot of stuffs l shared in the Agric section, l picked up from Kenyans who were willing to share knowledge just as l have shared with some Kenyans how to achieve better results applying the Nigerian way of doing them.

Thank you. Here comes a Nigerian who's actually lived in Kenya.

iblawi:
All I see is slums everywhere in the pics you posted. Look around the pics very well. We even have the video.

Ajegunle, bariga, badia etc are not slums. They have bad sanitation and old building's. The are not even poor people like those in Kibera.

You must be having very high standards for Kenya yet no standards at all for Nigeria. That's a compliment to Kenya you know?

......from what you guys are saying, bad sanitation and crappy buildings is a very normal thing to you that you you don't consider such conditions to be slums.

obaaderemi:
There u go again.u have quoted me and others even when u were not mentioned or quoted.let me remind u of one..when i complimented ethiopia,u went mad.remember?u even called a fellow kenyan,pissedyagami a 'pussylicker' because he was cordial to a nigerian MAN .the worst u have done is to banter insults with women.hell!u are all over the place throwing insults and fighting tooth and nail so much u have gotten so shrill and ridiculous like a bitch on heat.that's why u stick out.i just opened nairaland today around midday and u are already there again like a jobless housewife answering everybody.take it easy,bro b4 u go blind on nairaland.i know i can count on u to jump and dance when i pull the strings.

You even remember everything I've posted on this forum? Dude, stop this obsession - go back to seducing that Ethiopian lady who has no time for you. Stop being stupid

ianSweet:
Yes, having a market is no excuse i agree but lack of sanitation is not enough reason to classify a place as a slum. You see those market areas in Onitsha, people do not live there, so they tend not to take sanitation in those places serious.
However, their state govt has really done a lot and i will show u pictures of the new sanitized Onitsha market.

One thing u must understand is that a full blown slum and a low income area are not the same thing, although they may look similar sometimes. A place, no matter how much sanitation it lacks, as long as most of the residents there have an acess to modern toilet facilities and a sewage, paved motorable roads, appartment styled houses built of proper concrete blocks or bricks, such place can never be classified as a slum.

Take a look at the so called Agegunle for yourself, it just cannot be compared to the likes of Kibera. See storey buildings, clear cut roads e.t.c, just that they are in bad conditions, however the current governor is doing a lot to repair their roads as u can see in the last picture.

Nairobi's slums are just too terrible, numerous and large in size and that is why they receive more world and foreign attention.

You mean those places are better than Kibera in photo below? Girl, you're very useless. Look at Kibera below and compare it with your Ajegunle

ianSweet:
Yes, Onitsha has a lot of dirty places because it has some of the largest markets in West Africa.
The market parts of the city only lacks sanitation, but other than that, it can never be called a slum.

Like I said before, what we consider slums elsewhere is what you consider normal housing and that's why you think you have no slums. All cities in the world have markets - having marketd is no excuse for being the dirtiest city in the world.

ianSweet:
You are just desperate, show us the whole view of Agege slum and not just one area that lacks sanitation.
Can't u see how Kibera slum houses are?
Show us real rows and dozens of slum houses where people stay just like Kibera or Mathare.

You wanted a slum, I gave you a slum.....is that not a slum? Stop being in denial. You've even never been to Lagos

ianSweet:
I dare you to produce the pictures of slums in Nigeria if u really can.
All these places u are listing, i agree are low income areas but they are not slums because most of the houses you find in these places are made of blocks, bricks and concrete and are appartment styled houses with streets with motorable roads, sewages for each compounds and modern toilet facilities.

This is why apart from Makoko (which has been demolished), no other place in Lagos can be classified as a slum by the standard definition of a slum.

Prove that those places u mentioned are slums if truly you know what you claim!

Bariga slum....
