I'm surprised Nigeria ain't there cos we have at least 50 buildings taller than 60metres. If their definition of skyscraper is a building at least 100 metres tall, then we only have 14 that make the cut below. But personally, I think any building from 60 metres and higher is a skyscraper cos they look the part already. 14. CBN Tower, Marina Lagos - 100metres 13. Independence tower, Marina Lagos - 103metres 12. Famfa Oil towers, Ikoyi Lagos - 103metres 10. Cocoa house, Ibadan - 105metres 10. Intercontinental Hotel, V.I Lagos- 105metres 9. Dakkada Towers, Uyo - 109metres 7. 4 Bourdillon Tower, Ikoyi Lagos - 110metres 5. Eko towers beside Total, V.I Lagos - 118metres 4 & 7. World Trade center towers 1 & 2, Abuja - 120metres and 110metres 3. Union bank tower, Marina Lagos - 124metres 2 & 6. Eko Atlantic Champagne pearl and black pearl towers, Lagos - 134metres and 112metres 1. NECOM Tower, Marina Lagos - 156metres 9 Likes |

Paraman: The problem with you dumb Nigerians is that You all think you know it all! There's no way Lagos will have more skyscrapers more than Nairobi, and Tanzania biggest city! Yoruba hype have seriously damaged you lot! Check the list on the link below How many Lagos or Nigeria do you saw there? Now compare it to how many Nairobi and Tanzania you see there https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_in_Africa Also check this list for Tanzania largest city (Dar es salaam) you will notice every high-rise is centred on there Compare it with the ones in Lagos https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_in_Tanzania You will realise that the list of high-rise in Nigeria are not onlying in Lagos, but are scattered around other Nigeria cities Travel you no gree! 3 Likes |

There is nothing special about skyscrapers. It doesn't always mean economic prosperity. Countries choose how they want to plan their cities according to the history and taste of its citizenry. Europe doesn't have a lot of tall Buildings because of choice and economy. 5 Likes |

Some people just like to argue blindly and ends up embarrassing themselves. The list clearly mentioned skyscraper and you are mentioning Lagos. Don't you all know they have some criteria in determining what a skyscraper should look like? So, let's use common sense here, if you think the list is fake because they didn't include Lagos and south Africa, don't you think if they had Included Lagos and south Africa's high rise buildings then the number of that of USA will go from 800 to like 100,000 ? Sometimes before you argue, use your head. 13 Likes 1 Share |

Poor services infrastructure makes the development of tall buildings largely unviable in these parts. Power and water supply, waste disposal, fire control, etc can all add up to huge sums required to keep such buildings independently functional. Sums that most business or private occupants will struggle to afford in the kind of economy Nigeria presents. |
