First replace the many iron-sheet roofed shacks in Abuja - and then compare yourself to say Kisumu. Nairobi is on another level.

Just watch this video - and go look at your Shit.ty Abuja for comparison. Do you see any iron sheet roofed house in that whole district

Lol

See man, Nairobi is a thick slum. No hating but just the truth. Abuja is miles ahead of any craphole in Kenya Nairobi can't even be compared to Port Harcourt.

rvp2018:
that is damn expensive. in kenya you will fly with 10K naira.

Yes it’s tough to operate cheaply here as there are a number of agencies that rely on revenue from air passengers for their funding which makes aviation somewhat elitist in Nigeria

Prepare for vlain grand entry soonest.
I trust y'all missed my presence.
Can't stand the Bu.llshiit I just read few pages back.
Time to bring back some sanity here and sanitize the thread off some dingbat noise and witty remarks.

Now cheers to vlain as u await is presence.(laughing mysteriously)

Starting with u.

I do understand that life is truly difficult for the blind.. Pls kindly make use of those eyes if they and still working and help us circle out your so called iron sheet shack then lay bare ur observations for all to see,else you are a ravey Looney screaming out of pain and acute bitterness.

Shma,wuoche I am sick and tired of both of ya constantly reading ur noise on ur plastic bus station and illusory brt on two strech of roads (the uncompleted Nairobi expressway and the dusty thick road) damn!!! What a damn shame.just two freaking road. Lol one idiot was even hyping matatu over brt.
Lol the madness and hypocrisy couldn't be any worse.

Just30:
fortunately, most people have realised it now

Sure

Nigeria has huge scope for growth in aviation. Passenger traffic of 17M for country 4 times more populated than kenya...Kenya is doing as of 2019..I think nearly 13m. That tells you Nigeria should be doing 50m passengers...Not 17M. South Africa does more than 40M passengers annually with OR Tambo in Joburg handling more than 20m. Worldwide more than 4.5B passengers travel annually...so the scope is huge.

Fix the taxes and levies - and domestic airlines will be enough pie for many operators. Nigeria is huge country with poor road infrastructure - so air travel will be safe and convenient - and cheaper.

What is impressive about these grainy pictures.

Upper hill alone would knock Abuja senseless.

That’s what the airline operators have been pushing for but it seems the government and the airline operators are permanently at variance with each other . This is just aviation when you take a look at other sectors you’ll also see a myriad of problems . All these contribute to the underperforming economy, poor infrastructure and the general shithole narrative.

This is just the first phase of the project.
Waiting patiently for the entire project to be completed.

Nice one

Check out bank city

Bank city,

One of many Johannesburg CBDs

Bank city is part of Joburg inner city - how can it be a CBD? It's not a district. It's block.

Around the 27th I'll be in menlyn

I'll shoot the whole thing the construction there is insane, I was there during February , he only shown the other part that we call Menlyn Maine.

Do you want to see a vid or pics?

Videos are good. There is no argument that South Africa is a proper middle class country.

Uppermiddle class

Upperhill.

Just a reminder, apart from #Twitter, Google also has its Artificial Intelligence (AI) lab in Africa located in Accra, Ghana.

Ghana is fast becoming the technological hub of Africa



I foresee Ghana receiving some finnest bright mind across Africa due to economic migration.

rvp2018:
Sorry, edited. It was a picture the shackman proudly posted. You can imagine for 3 years he'd been pressing folks here to post their pictures! You got to give him credit for very high almost delusional self-esteem. It's kind a south african thing - they imagine like American or Europe do that rest of us in Africa live on trees!!!!!!!! The shackman was definitely shocked nobody was impressed by his ramshackle - and the story changed - he was at his grand ma! giving her back massage! It's definitely a single bed self contained iron roofed hovel.

lol! . But it's my pleasure as a clinical psychologist to deal with such kind of people.

Sorry to say but he just need to be returned to mental hospital.

Everytime I bring up Nairobi expressway, people from zoos will be like, "Oooh... Every country is building such, oooooh... You guys are ignorant, ooooh you need to travel to other countries blu blu bluh.... " But the reality is always on YouTube and pics. all mega projects, mega infrastructure have been displayed here and nowhere in africa apart from south africa "maybe" will you find a road of this magnitude.

Boeing will join soon

If you harness afCFA secretariat; and Nigeria well known weakness; you could take some action off lagos. But in Africa - I think the action will remain in Nairobi, Joburg, Cario, Lagos and Capetown - with few crumbs throw to Accra and Kampala.

Tech wise - Ghana is where Kenya was about 15yrs ago.

Now our technopolis city phase 1 is about to get off ground

The lack of cranes is not indicative of a dearth of construction and nor is construction an end in itself. Most of the construction of buildings is done and what's left are the roads and the streetscape. Look at that streetscape, will all due respect Nairobi can learn something. There needs to be some sort of a master plan, not tall buildings randomly plopped in the middle of quite suburbia.

Bro, let's be honest here, Can you rank the following cities in terms of development and beauty without being biased? I will not put any south african city to be fair.

Here they are:
Accra
Lagos
Nairobi

Your opinion will be appreciated

Well, I found it remarkable, coz Nairobi is huge construction, everywhere is a crane or construction site.

And this is precisely why Nairobi will catch up and overtake Joburg soon. What Nairobi lacks is the lipstick...mainly street level paving of walk ways and of course to eliminate the slums by investing in huge social housing.

Joburg like south africa like I have said before plataued without becoming a developed nation. It like many Latin America nations - save probably for Chile and Argentina.

If you go to countries in South Asia - likes of Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, China and etc - you can see them becoming developed nation - because the country are still developing despite being upper middle class countries like South Africa.

That video makes Upper-hill looks like a big area, meanwhile upper-hill is smaller than a district in Victoria Island Lagos.

To answer this, your observation is wrong.
We don't have to learn city planning from SA since we have successfully maintained our zoning laws and bulding codes at the pick.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-2t6FqELxs
If Quiet is what you wanted to say then I can confidently tell you that 'Nairobi quiet surburbs' have maintained their bulding codes and in no way will you find a tall tower standing in such areas.

FYI, Cytonn had in July 2017 received the NCC approval to build a triplex complex on a four-acre piece of land at the junction of Elgeyo Marakwet but due to its massive height, it was halted due to strict coding and zoning laws.
