No..... beauty varies by what you decide to show and publicize.

Fact that South Africa makes lots of photos of what they have and display their best tourists sites on internet does not makes other countries less beautiful. Every country is not photomaniac.

Most French tourists visit francophone West Africa.

I live in the USA and every year, 90% of well to do Americans travel overseas for tourism. The top list destinations are :

Mexico
Brazil
Spain
Hawaii
Bahamas
Dubai
Thailand
Vietnam
Italy...Roman empire monuments and great arts
Australia
Egypt....Pyramids
Israel...Bible monumet sites
Kenya....Safari

Sorry, very very few American tourists know about South Africa. The biggest tourist travellers in this world are the Americans and those places they visit around the world are said to be awesomely beautiful.

The world neither starts nor ends in South Africa, you SA guys need to travel out and go see that none of the seven wonders of the world is found in South Africa, I am sure the great wall of China is not situated in Cape Town

Prove that you live in the USA

No need to imagine a calamity that will not happen to Nigeria. We have done nationalization before by turning British Petroleum to African petroleum, so we can just ask Globacom as our national telecoms carrier to take over MTN.....easy ride.

something i must have said have bruised your little heart. Lol. You are an insecure puppet who is too shallow minded and an honour-destitute who lacks credibility to face the facts of your life.
I concoured with southafrica's infrastructre but does that make it better no way. Again it is not me but the whole bleeding world do not see southafrica as an "african" country. Black people are not given any credit about southafrica. That is why another country which has a black heritage must fill that void. And Nigeria is doing it beautifully.

If you will be bold enough and not be a lilly-livered,self-deluding swamp rat who cant look himself in the mirror, do your research and see how the world see southafrica. Little fool.
Indeed

We South Africans dont veiw ourselves as part of Africa either.

stop patronizing0yourself lagos is africa's biggest city and cairo is next. It never ceases to baffle me how black southafrica claim the development of a country they met the way it is today. The southafrica that exists since 300 years to 1994 when blacks were asked to come down from the trees, caves and jungle is still the same south africa today. You have nothing to boast about,believe me. You never hear of an anglo-dutch bragging but black south africans who were let out onto civilisation just yesterday keep ranting. so the world seem too big for you guys you keep acting as aliens on earth. Your owners afrikaans and the British settlers dont brag because they know southafrica is still a bleeding third world country.
You couldent be more wrong.

All South Africans are extremely proud of what we have acheived.

And who-did-what is irrelevant in the larger context.

Especially when you consider what has been acheived in the last 20 years in the upliftment of the poor and previously disadvanatged.

We built over 2 million free houses in 20 years... can you compare to that?

And its just one of many bragging rights we have.

And with regards to Lagos, it may be africa's biggest... but that is all

and btw, the Johannesburg Muncipality has a population of 10 million, and that is excluding the outlying areas such as Benoni, Springs etc . Its so big that cities have swallowed other cities to form one mega-city. Its city from the Vaal River to well north of Pretoria (seperate municipality)

South Africa too could not build her own jet fighters or even ordinary air to air missiles to replace the weak Mirage jets France sold to you, you kept complaining of Cuba's MiG-23 air superiority throughout the war. So what makes you better?

The G-5 and G-6 artillery technology was imported and sold to South Africa by a Canadian, while the Nuclear bomb technology was imported from Israel and sold to you.

South African arms industry was built by secret b..reast feeding from oversees throughout the arms embargo. Learn to quote history
.
We do build multiple missile systems, and the Cheeta variant of the Mirage we flew is superior to your current F-7's... so what does that say?

And the Cubans never had air-superiority

G5 and G6 was not sold to us, it was designed by a Canadian INSIDE of South Africa FOR a South African company

Nuclear bomb tech was not imported to us.

Maybe you should learnt quote history and actually quote it by providing citations

None of what he said is based on fact.

A canadian designed the G5 and G6 while inside South Africa, for a South African company. It wasnt sold to us.

Isreal didnt sell us any Nukes, only the ballistic Missiles we were building for them were based on an Isrealy Design (which we improved greatly)

And he cunning only mentions a handfull of the vast stable of products we have.

i hope you realise your country was trying to invite nigeria into bric but we turned it down. That was when our economy was about blowing yours away and your government was feeling insecure.

Now our economy is now the biggest on the continent by far. South africa has no business in bric anymore. Go ask japan what China is doing to them with their economy even though japan has more infra and wealth. It is what we will do to you. We are in the mint countries and we are a monster no african country can stop.
first, you didnt turn BRICS down

Second, we have all the buisness we want in BRICS. And BRICS is going to be invaluable in South Africa beating Nigeria to a permanent seat on the UN Security Council.

Third, MINT is a joke and does not actually exist

Fourth, you are still lagging well behind us in development, and we are still a bigger destination for investment. We are economically colonising you as we speak.

Quote where I said that.

SA just lost the chance to encourage Nigeria to buy arms from you since always ignore you and buy from Asia or Europe. South Africa is a bad businessman, Nigeria is spending billions of dollars on weapons now and you spoiled your own chances by driving away a rich customer... fools !

Nigeria does NOT need South Africa, 90% of our arms are purchased from Russia - China axis in the last 10 years.

What have we ever bought from you? MRAPS only and in very few numbers.

Tell me what weapon South Africa produces that we cannot get from Russia, India, Israel, China ? Nothing !!!!

We will swallow up your MTN and gift it free to Globacom, all you will ever do is to cry and mourn your loss

World Bank Cuts Nigeria's Poverty Rate to 33.1%, Says North is Poorer

Quote:

22 Jul 2014


*Predicts 7.4% growth in 2014
James Emejo

The World Bank Tuesday said there had been positive economic trend as well as significant progress made towards poverty eradication in the country.

It said in its second edition of the Nigeria Economic Report (NER) which was launched in Abuja that going by the recent rebasing of the economy as well as analysis from the new General Household Surveys (GHS) conducted by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) with the support of the Bank, new poverty estimates in 2010/2011 and 2012/2013 should be within the range of 35.2 per cent and 33.1 per cent respectively.



It stated that an analysis of a panel survey data (GHS) of 5000 households for 2010/2011 and 2012/2013 provided "evidence that consumption is likely higher than previously estimated from the HNLSS survey."


Furthermore, the new GHS analysis put rural poverty at 46.3 per cent and 44.9 per cent in 2010/2011 and 2012/2013 respectively compared to 69.1 per cent and 51.2 per cent respectively in the HNLSS 2009/2010 estimates by the NBS.

The World Bank estimates further suggested that the number of poor Nigerians remained at 58 million adding that more than half of the figure are located in the North- east or North- west.

Specifically, it noted:" Poverty rates range from 16 per cent in the South- West to 52 per cent in the North-East. While the South and North central experienced declines in the poverty rate between 2010/2011 and 2012/2013, the poverty rate increased almost unchanged in the North West."

Because the world bank re-defined what they describe as poverty.

We have been over this.

The NSA official said Nigeria would prefer to buy armaments directly from major Western manufacturers, but that multiple trades had been vetoed by the governments involved.
“Everywhere we go to purchase arms they block us… We approached the United States to buy helicopters but they categorically said ‘no’. They said we have no pilots,” the NSA official said.
He said Nigeria would not need to go through middlemen if the United States agreed to sell to it directly.

The most discipline army in Africa?

Where it is well known that large numbers of men support BH?

Where human rights abuses are well catalogued

Where men mutiny?

Desert?

Refuse to return to the front?

Where corruption in your military is rife?

In the huge military operation in the north east, where Boko Haram operates, which has been in place since a state of emergency was imposed in 2013, there are complaints by army members. These soldiers have often claimed that their budgeted allowance for dangerous field duties are shaved off by commanders, leaving them with less than 50% in some cases.

After protests by some aggrieved soldiers in Maiduguri, the army spokesman attributed their complaints to the absence of a commander who was away on training. The soldiers were dismissed as mutinous, and handed to a military court. Yet, the reality is that troops endure horrific conditions – they often lack tents or sleeping bags, many must scavenge for firewood to cook and they live a destitute life – hardly the motivation or replenishment required to fight a violent and constant aggressor.
