let's be rational and divide their paved road network by all their provinces and Joburg will still have more paved road network than the entire Kenya.

Some facts are undebatable

From a simple google search SA has 750,000KM of road network 30% of that is paved which means around 225,000km . Joburg is 1,645 km² that is like 40km x 40 km .....with all the buildings in Joburg how many kilometers of road would fit in that space.?

How many kilometers of a 4 lane road can you fit in a square kilometer?

over 20000kms

Also I'm quoting figures for the entire Joburg metro not just the city

https://www.engineeringnews.co.za/article/quality-of-johannesburgs-road-network-decreasing-2017-11-09
According to this website Joburg metro has a total of 13599km both paved and unpaved as of 2017

it is not about how many kilometers of roads will fit there but how many kilometers of roads exist in their built up space .

AfriqueDuZuid:
How many kilometers of a 4 lane road can you fit in a square kilometer?

You would technically fit 100 strips of 2 lane road (10m wide) in that space.The kilometers you would cover going end to end for each road would be 100km max .

Am trying to put things into perspective.

Mkenya2019:
Nairobi is 4th most dynamic city in the world - and CNN claim to be fastest growing. Showing a few cranes will not change the fact. The fact is about half kenya cement consumption is happening in Nairobi. That about 4 million metric tonnes being poured on buildings.

Nairobi will beat Joburg very very soon.

Kenya will take a little while.

I see kenya catching South Africa in cement consumption in less than 5yrs.

According to Emporis Joburg has 357 buildings while Nairobi has 256 which means we need like 100more to catch up with Joburg's level of density and as things are right now,26 are already under construction with 6 proposed.
The same website states that only 1 building is under construction in Joburg and 1 planned.

there are virtually no gravel roads in Johannesburg(maybe around a 1000kms of gravel roads)....that figure is still more than Kenya as of 2017....no?

How is it gibberish to ask you to admit you're wrong you claimed to know or to have read the whole odu ifa which is impossible, age does matter because I as a teenager should be more stubborn and you as an adult should be more honest with yourself the fact that you fail at your big age to admit when you're wrong is shameful and you trying to riddle it down to gibberish is hilarious

[s]And yes women to man sex is more beneficial it isn't a question there are many cons from gay sex like a leaky bum so of course it says the normal way is beneficial but it doesn't automatically mean that the gay one now becomes taboo or immoral nowhere does it say that when we read African history and religion we see it say don't do this and those who did this were banished or executed and what not so why os there no source that shows such for gay people in traditional African religions? All you're going off is the general homophobic views of African people born from colonial rule and western religious views and they've continued to roll with it since then there's no actual source or evidence showing it was taboo amongst most people and if someone bothered to do an in depth research on it they'd find majority of the stigma stems from western cultural and religious values[/s]

You don't come online and start debating about age that is too callow . Nobody cares about how old you are here.

If you have enough knowledge to submit, kindly do instead of this hogwash .


I stop the discussion cus I see too much imbecilic meaning, my immediate brother was admitted into university at the age of 15 and he was able to demonstrate well among colleague that are two of his age . So stop being callow and demonstrate your knowledge instead

I wish you understand what he mean.but you can enjoy the melody.

I'm simply asking you to admit you're wrong is that so difficult the reason why age matters is to show maturity why is it so difficult for you to admit that don't know the whole odu ifa and hence can't make a statement on whether something is inside or not inside the odu ifa?

Awesome website!! now lets include Sandton, Midrand and Randburg since all fall under Johannesburg Metro

All of a sudden it's 436 buildings, 4 under construction and 8 planned

fair enough so Kenya with a size of 580,367 km2 is slightly ahead of an area in SA that is only 1,645 km2

A brainy person will tell you age and maturity are two sided coin. They are not necessarily equal .

I am not a babalawo , how can I know all the odu ifa, I am just a mere student learning everyday .

Having brains isn't a measure of maturity either so a brainy person can't necessary tell you that I think you mean a wise person can tell you that but in general adults are expected to be more mature then children and teenagers.

Thank you that's all i've been waiting for, It took 5 posts for you to admit you don't know the whole odu ifa

The bottom line is Nairobi is fast catching up

You like wording but make sure it impactful, don't just be a tallkertive without iota of knowledge.

I am interested in your knowledge not in your wordings . Peace .

It's not catching up to anything it's still over 200 buildings away unless South Africa were to stagnate in terms of buildings it would take them about 10 years at 20 or so buildings completed year on year but South Africa is still building new things and if either DA or ActionSA come into power then any vision of catching up to South Africa is unlikely

There are many ways to view it we can also say that SA has a total road network is over 700,000km 30percent of which are paved .while that of Kenya is 160,000km 20percent of which are paved.
In terms of Geopgrahical size SA is over 1million square kilometers while Kenya is 580,000.

He included Joburgs metro while I can also include Nairobis metro which can go up to Thika town or Kitengela.

I am pretty sure you dont understand the scale of development of Johannesburg metro

that's why earlier I said we show tackle it by neighbourhood, for instance you pick kilimani , show rwhat does kilimani offer,estates businesses industries infrastructure and places that are under kilimani

and I pick say Randburg I do the same

For you to even mention Thika and KITENGELA like its something noteworthy shows you are completely clueless you are.

I totally agree that Joburg is quite advanced but in 10 to 15 yrs , Nairobi will be at the same level of development (taking into account the current growth trajectories)
