The WTC has been going on like forever, I hope they don't abandon it.

I don't think so.

Although, the bad economy in 2015 affected it and many other projects. However, since the economy is picking up, many abandoned projects are getting a look.

30 floors in 2018 - is exciting you - Nairobi we are looking at 80 floors! Pinnacle Towers which is back on construction is 70 floors and 45 floors.

Once complete, Pinnacle Towers in Nairobi, Kenya, with a height of almost 300m, will be the tallest building in Africa.

The foundation itself has taken I think 3 years to dig.

Chaiiiiiii! You beat me to it. I was about to show this project. grin

There are three other projects in Abuja. The Buhari Tower 30 floors (336ft), Aso Towers (29 floors), and ICC Towers (200m) are coming up soon. grin

This is beside the World trade center of 37 floors and the culture center tower (160m) projects that were on hold at some point but have now seen the light of the day. Probably, by next year construction will commence.

Picture of ICC Towers under construction. grin

I think Nigerians are unable to grow their own language they have to steal a foreign language. Too sad for a country of over 200M people. All countries with over 100M people have their native language.

We have native languages and some of our native languages are the most spoken in Africa !
**** Hausa already has more speakers than Swahili, it is only yet to gain official status in papers because of tribalism in Nigeria, Ghana, Cameroon and Niger republic.

Besides, we grew our own language from English, just as French and Spanish grew theirs from Latin.

They have nollywood
Yes u heard right

Hahaha, NairobiWalker, you can see that it's your Kenyan women who are more fascinated by Nigerian men.

***** To be honest, Nigerian women are not really fascinated by other African men. If a Nigerian lady does not marry a Nigerian, we go for whites.
Hardly will you see a Nigerian lady with a Cameroonian, Kenyan or South African man. Even Ghanaian is difficult.

>>>> Nigerian women have noticed that no other African men work so hard and spend so much money on them like Nigerian men. Other African men also seem very local before our eyes. To be sincere, we tend to be materialistic. (mind you, I do not really approve of this mentality. I personally find other African men attractive because I'm more open-minded, but as for marriage, hmm I doubt I could marry another African undecided. No African identity is worth trading for my Nigerian identity).

Just for the records, the culture of materialism started from southern Nigeria. Hausa fulani educated women are also very materialistic.
***** We central Nigerian women are the least materialistic of all. Materialism was zero in our cultures.
This even makes Southern guys judge our wome as being very cheap embarassed
~~However, this is now gradually being destroyed as our own women intermix with southern & hausa fulani women.

Which bubble did you burst? grin stop feeling too important, I said Woodley is part of Kibera constituency and I still maintain it. So what bubble have you burst? grin

Woodkey is part of Kibera
Olympic is part of Kibera
Ngumo is part of Kibera
Ayany is part of Kibera

All those places range from fairly nice lower middle class to expensive Upper Middle class. Do you now know Nairobi more than me? For the record I used to live in Woodley. My cousin stays in Ngumo.

Bla bla bla grin These places are part of Kibera constituency, but they are not part of Kibera slum community, or has every single community become a constituency in Kenya?

**** Even google maps clearly differentiate these places for what they are.
You can only tell me that Silanga is part of Kibera, hence it's written in small letters, unlike the others that are so unique from Kibera.

Really. Why only Nairobi, show us other parts of Kenya grin grin. Nairobi is beautiful without a doubt, but that's because it's one of the two big cities in Kenya, the other being Mombasa, apart from this two which other city in Kenya can be categorize as "big"? Nigeria can boast of 10 "Big cities" give or take. imagine if Nigeria spend it's wealth developing only Lagos and Abuja. Just imagine that.
Lagos
Abuja

I speak my mother tongue well
I learned my mother tongue in school because in primary I schooled with my tribes locality.
If 2 Kikuyus meet they'll speak both Kikuyu and Kiswahili interchangeably most likely or either.
The average urban kid anywhere speaks mostly Swahili with their parents though many parents will take their kids to the village to learn their mother tongue.

This is nice. Clearly, swahili is not a threat to Kenyan native languages unlike Tanzania.
**** What ethnic group are the natives of Nairobi/environs?

I heard Kisumu is a Luo city. So, what language is most likely to be spoken on the streets of Kisumu? Luo, Swahili or English?
