afam4eva:

i consider PH, calabar, kano as cities

but I know many Nigerians that say the only cities in Nigeria are lagos and abuja

Nayah: And that's your problem, your arguments are either not updated or incomplet, and because you have a superficial way ton analyse things. I've been to Ivory Coast last year and Accra sorry to say it it's far better....even though I love Abidjan, I'm objective. And I agree Luanda is magical , as for Central African regions many have mack of infrastructures but they have one of the best landscapes in Africa due to their geographical position. To conclude, I would say, a developped country is NOT only capitals, but it's about far regions and their infrastructures, potable water and sorry but the majority in Africa is NOT developped so be careful when you choose your words.

maybe Abidjan went down after the war
but it was known 2 have one of the best infrastructures in Africa not just in west africa

Accra is just livable because of Ghana's current political stability

I know many Nigerians who prefer Abidjan to Accra n dakar

Nayah: Onila answer to my question, have you ever been to Cameroon or you're just teaching yourself on Google? is yes then I do understand many mistakes coming from you

maybe what you consider as a city in cameroon is not what we Nigerians see as a city

In Nigeria, portharcourt, calabar, jos, kaduna, kano are never considered as cities in Nigeria

so I can never say bamenda, beau is some city-when they dont even match up to kano, calabar
douala you guys love is a very dirty, crap city just full of hustlers

afam4eva: In as much as, economy wise, Nigeria is bigger than these countries, but NIgerian cities are not liveable. If not foor the fact that most Nigerians are pursuing mkoney, they'd rather move to cities like Accra or Luanda. At worse, they'll move to Calabar or Enugu.

luanda is the probably the only city in Angola
all the money is put in there



"Dont be decieved.
Corruption is rife, the gap between rich and poor is ever widening, the prices of common necessities such as housing is inaffordable to the common man and there is widespread discrimination and virulent hatred against the Bakongo people.

Not to mention the whitewashing of African culture over there and the subjugation of the native Africans by light-skinned mulattos. You cannot get into some clubs unless you are a mulatto. I witnessed this first hand.

Angola is just treading the same path toward distruction as Nigeria. All these pics you are seeing are just dividends of bountiful oil money, similar to the Abuja we have in Naija. Angola is basically run by cronies from Sao Tome."


Angola is sitting on a powderkeg, that much is evident by the hostility of the lower class toward the ruling elite.

accra aint that developed either. .been there before

its just very peaceful, quiet, warm n beautiful

Abidjan is the most developed city in WEST Africa

dont know if its still beautiful as it was due to their senseless wars

Nayah: The problem with you Onila is that you're full of certitudes, and full of clichés...have you ever been there before talking like that, if yes do you know Bamenda, Maroua, Garoua or Buéa? Try to be relevant with objective arguments rather than doing what AFAM4EVA has noticed: Thinking that everything is about Nigeria.

bamenda,beau

Douala is a large dump village(baby lagos) and KUMBA, LIMA and Buea are all clans. very dead places cant even match up to calabar. .

afam4eva: ABJ is a better planned and managed city but it has no character. There's something about other cities of the world that trips me.

ABJ is a new city
still developing

afam4eva: It's really not about seperating fron Nigeria. I just think we as Nigerians don't take basic things seriously. I was wowed the day i saw pics of Lunda, the capital of Angola and in the myopic and ignorant Nigeria, they see most Sub-Saharan African countries except south-africa as some kind of poverty ravaged land.

the only city in Cameroon is yaounde which is no where near Abuja

and douala looks like a refuse dump

afam4eva: Odiegwu! If you call these places beautiful then America is heaven.

what of ABJ

afam4eva: You mean awful. lagos is a dump site and it doesn't appeal to any right thinking person. We need to start planning and maintaining our cities.

i went 2 VI, Lekki, ikeja

it was so beautiful

some parts of Lagos r truely awesome

Nayah: Now I concur, cause DRC and Cameroon as one of the best too

DRC is a crap country

no time to take care of their rainforest

they even butcher and eat the gorilla's
