If you have sense and it’s working well, you’ll do well not to compare capital of a state to an ordinary state.
Compare another place in Namibia to Lagos not Windhoek

Just two or 3 streets in Windhoek you are jerking off.. any small thing to discredit Lagos you’ll jerk to
You with sense..
Did you bother to ask why they were given the 2nd neatest city and Lagos among the very worst?
You think they didn't take the shanties into account?
Lagos is a City,a city state..
The largest city in Nigeria..
Comparing it to the largest cities in other countries is apt!
Instead of throwing a tantrum because your shithole was called out..
Hold your government and citizens to account!

COME ON WILL YOU SHUT UP.

A CITY DOES NOT HAVE TO LOOK LIKE A 'EUROPEAN CITY' TO LOOK GOOD.

YOUR PROBLEM IS SELF-HATE AND INFERIORITY COMPLEX, ASSUMING YOU ARE ACTUALLY NIGERIAN.



1.Lol. The fact that you even type in capital letters says a lot about you..
2.Windhoek is neater, has more amenities than any Nigerian city. Namibia has the best roads in Africa etc..don't know who said anything about Europe
3. My moniker clearly shows I'm not Nigerian .
4. Pointing out obvious facts has nothing to do with inferiority complex , You're just in denial

What you should do is ask yourself, ''so why did Port Harcourt not look like Windhoek at independence in 1960?''. What did the British do with all our money from exports for 100 years? THAT IS WHAT YOU SHOULD BE ASKING, NOT frigging BLAMING NIGERIANS!!! If anything, Nigerians have developed Port Harcourt pretty well from the crappy village it was under British rule.

Port Harcourt, Nigeria

Namibia has some of the best road networks in the world. Solid and wealth road systems that even beat some European countries.
The country is very sane, calm and organized. People are well behaved and drive sanely.
There is so much that make up a country such as how sane the people are.
Nigeria lacks in all of these. We are not sane in nigeria. Almost everyone is mad in Nigeria

Windhoek is Namibia's capital. Nigeria's capital is Abuja, NOT LAGOS. Compare like with like, dumbo.
Lagos and Windhoek are both commercial hubs for both Nigeria and Namibia respectively, the comparisons make sense. You can even compare these cities with Johannesburg and yet the lattter is not South Africa's capital

ABEG GET LOST. GO AND LIVE THERE. WE PREFER ABUJA 100 TIMES. ABUJA LOOKS 1000 TIMES MORE MODERN AND DYNAMIC THAN WINDHOEK, AND WE'VE ONLY SEEN THE 1ST PHASE OF THE ONGOING ABUJA PROJECT, WHICH HAS 4 PHASES IN TOTAL.
lol. you're so rude, what seems to be frustrating you?
I've seen Aabuja many times..let's just say It's not any better than Windhoek

YOU PEOPLE ARE SO THOUGHTLESS. JOHANNESBURG HAS BEEN SEEING GOVT INVESTMENT IN INFRASTRUCTURE SINCE THE 1800s! LAGOS, SINCE ONLY THE 1960S!

THE SA COLONIAL GOVT SAW SA AS THEIR OWN COUNTRY, AND THEIR PEOPLE EMIGRATED THERE IN DROVES BECAUSE OF THE TEMPERATE CLIMATE.

SO THEY DID NOT LOOT THE ECONOMY LIKE THEY DID IN WEST AFRICA.

THAT WAS WHY BY THE 1950S, JO'BURG WAS ALREADY A DEVELOPED PLACE, AS WAS INDEED SA AS A WHOLE.

NIGERIA ONLY BEGAN DEVELOPING IN THE 1960s. YOU CANNOT COMPARE NIGERIA AND S.A, UNLESS YO ARE HISTORICALLY ILLITERATE.
Read and read for comprehension. You're too emotional for my liking..
I'm saying...
It makes perfect sense to compare Windhoek and Lagos because both cities are financial, ccommerce hubs in their respectively counties ...you can compare Johannesburg to New York, Toronto to Nairobi etc. it's not compulsory that a city be a capital

Even if it's a part in Namibia, I no go hate, the city is neat and organized. But when you have dirty nonchalant people like in some places across the northern part of our CORNTREE, how will this kinda structure and level of urbanization be achieved?
