This is not your debate... Don't jump into people's discussions like a scared cat.

If you're secured in your own belief, wait until the topic shifts to Nairobi vs lagozoo. Then I can engage you one-on-one, without accepting interference from weaklings.

In the meantime... Allow me to hold a discussion with Austine or jil115.

You dragged the whole of africa into your convo and threw shade in our faces.
So yeah i am involved.

Shma:


I asked you to make your submission make sense, and you're replying with "wrong"?

Dude!!

You specifically wanted by emporis, which awards skyscrapers which south Africa is not featured.

However I can assure you SA buildings are one of the most awarded in terms of designs.

gallivant:


So you want a cookie?

What does cookies gotta do with South Africans being ones to build and design your famous building?

I hope you'll have the emotional intelligence to absorb it

samorobo:

I'm not holding your fingers.. If you feel pressed, keep going and talk to yourself. .

What I'm basically saying is, if you want to debate, and you want an engagement from me, then stop gratifying south African's views. Wait for your time and I will answer your dumb tantrums.

Shma:


Really....

Those designs are not unique if you ask me

, I believe on of you Kenyans once posted a picture depicting Kenyans building lesser knockoffs of old American buldings.

Like the prism buildings, the beige tall buildings and many others

AfriqueDuZuid:

That is the bone of contention... Skyscrapers in South Africa are the ugliest in Africa. And I'm not hating.


By skyscraper I mean 150m+.

Am I lying? Hence why emboris can't recognize you.

I called you they,it’s refreshing to see you are updating your archaic vocabulary. Reduce your verbosity and embrace grandiloquence.

It seems like almost everyone here claims their countrymen contributed to Kenya's success or lack thereof. Nigerians claim real estate. Hobbits claim the judiciary. Tanzanians "feed" us and now South Africans designed and built Nairobi. Sincerely, you are all just impressed.

For starters, learn what modernity means.

Adjective
modern (comparative moderner, superlative modernest)

Pertaining to a current or recent time and style; not ancient.


Secondly, I don't care about your opinion. Emboris is a worldwide platform that ranks skyscrapers.... Based on architectural design and uniqueness.

Some of the skyscrapers from SA are ancient and dull - not anywhere close to kenya.

samorobo:

Talk sense bro, get some fresh air.

You need the full backing of Africa, that's how much you fear Kenyans in a debate.

Can you pull 20 pictures of buildings you deem are a marvel Ill pull 20 from SA after you.

We'll continue in that manner

Write properly. I've given you time to go exercise your brain cells so that when I meet you in lagozoo vs Nairobi, you don't sh*t in your pants while struggling to articulate yourself.

Who said South Africans designed Nairobi?

Shma pulled out a building which was designed and build by South Africans and South Africa company, that's a fact!

why you being emotional about it?

Again, no one said Nairobi or Kenya has more complex and marvelous buildings than SA. I only said your skyscrapers (150m+) , are dull and ugly, and can't be compared with Kenya.

Listen to respond.

No skyscraper in Nairobi was ever built by a Boer from south Africa.

Kenya prolly has 5 building that's 150+m

You make it seem like those types are galore.

But we can focus on what's on abundance

here's our colonial architecture, according to him this is not modern

I was referring to a certain video posted with this type of building style which basically falls under colonial Architecture style

Triad Architects (Kenyans) were also involved .

Interms foods, your national stats will tell you where you get your food.

Interms of Nigerians being top 5 luxury home buyers you can check a research article that was posted on this thread so many times.

All the stats I need..

Kenyans live longer than those supposedly feeding us..

Kenya's luxury market is miles ahead compared to those supposedly buying up our property!

I suggest you guys should try it the Kenyan way, it's a sure winner.

Yes

This has nothing to do with who's luxury market is doing good or bad.

But it's about Nigerians being top 5 people who buy your luxury properties

samorobo:


Nothing to see in the surrounding,very basic.


When will Kenya get to this level? Is it next year.

This is the video I was referring to.
The only difference between this and what one can find in Nairobi is maybe the horizontal infrastructure eg walkways, outdoor eateries etc.. otherwise Nairobi has already nailed it on vertical infrastructure plus half of all skyscraper projects been built in Africa are in Nairobi.Once we fix basic stuff eg street lights,paveways etc then.. For sure we are going to be at jorburgs level.

That is true in your country. Nigerians are buying your posh houses while a normal black SAn Is playing at the shack.
