thats not realy a slum , on your pic its the old Kasbah of Algiers built in the 10th century. its classified as UNESCO World Cultural Heritage , many remains of the citadel are ruined or in a critical state . many of this old houses were build in the 16th , 17th , 18 th centuries

of course there is few small slums in algeria , like you can find in all countries in the world including super powers like USA , France ect... but nothing comparable to the number of slums in many other african countries.

even if there is a specificity in Algeria. the state is relocating residents of houses in these slums , some people come on purpose to build this kind of makeshift house so that the state gives them a new apartment.

Tinubu spent 8 years in office, so, the countries and the cities you listed were developed within 8 years? Or tens of decades.

Stop compounding your ignorance with more ignorance.

What a sad embarrassment.

Rosskiiku:
See? Everyone always has an EXCUSE for other people's development problems, while OVERBLOWING black African issues to high heavens.

THAT IS A FCKING SLUM, YOU HEAR? I don't give two shiits if they made it a UNESCO site or not. Can you live there? Mr Professor of excuses.

If that was a black country, you would not come in here with excuses and rationalisations.



SHUT UP. There are HUGE slums in Algeria and Egypt, which you could not find in MANY black African countries like Botswana, Gabon, Tanzania, Rwanda, Gambia, Namibia, Malawi, Lesotho, Senegal, Togo, Zimbabwe, Benin Republic, Swaziland, and many others.

You will NOT come in here and stereotype black African nations as all slum-intensive, and everyone else ''just has a little bit of it''.



Excuse making expert. Even in Lagos, there are all sorts of resettlement schemes and bulldozing of slums. It doesn't happen only in 'white' or 'light skinned' people's countries.

Rubbish.

RuudVanNisteroy:
I showed you what Lagos looked like in the 60's and 70's and the kind of infrastructure it had, ranging from: a port,national theatre,international airport,national stadium,third mainland bridge just to name a few.

Show us what your Bobo Chicago contributed from 1999-2007.

RuudVanNisteroy:
Name the resettlement schemes of the bulldozed slums.

So, Tinubu should have built a port, national theater, airport and 3rd mainland bridge within 8 years even though, those are Federal Projects?

Your ignorance and primary school mentality is turning comedic and it's sad and appalling for a grown man.

Buba marwa ...operation sweep is the best that ever happen to Lagos...

PHAYOL81:
Most pics there predates independence. Nigeria kills the progress of Lagos, point blank. The Barclays and some British companies even left around the late 70s and early 80s because of the construct of Nigerian government and policies.

RuudVanNisteroy:
More pictures of Festac 1977 when Nigeria was still respected on the global stage and you didn't need visas to travel to UK. And the currency was still strong.

Rosskiiku:
You didn't need visas to travel to the UK because, thanks to British colonial looting, few Nigerians were educated by 1977 enough to contemplate travelling abroad for anything. At independence in 1960, literacy rate was 6%.

That had moved to around 30% by 1977 courtesy of govt investment in public education, but still a small number, hence no need for visas, because only very few people were literate or educated enough to travel for 'greener pastures'.

Today, with a population of 210 million and a massive 70% literacy rate, there is a far greater mass of educated Nigerians seeking foreign opportunities, hence the imposition of visa conditions by the UK and others.

It is pure demographics and economics, and It has nothing to do with being ''respected'' or not ''respected''.

You need better education to be honest. You reason on a high school level.

MrMaestro:
I agree with this 100%. Not only Lagos, but Oyo as well. Look at the Cocoa skyscraper that was built in 1968. Yet Oyo is still struggling to build more sky scrapers nearly 60 years later. Lagos should be like Singapore and Tokyo if not for Nigeria and the scores of Nigerian immigrants flooding the city. Just look at how spacious everything was, smh, so much better. They need to start deporting people en masse.

facts are facts , even if you dont like them . this old small ruined historic kasbah houses have electricity 24h/24 , 7/7 , water H24 , Gaz 24h . since 70's , in some countries in 2021 even new district with high modern building dont have stable h24 electricity . if you had historic districts , monuments from centuries still standing you would understand the difference . you can't demolish this kind of historic districts .
