If you knew how they counted to get that 370,you were going to be quiet.
If you knew the real figures of TZ you could have swallowed ur pride.

Again,I tell u,just worry about your fast falling economy. Calculate your GDP next year, am waiting to see your numbers

Why are we even talking about Tanzania

We should be talking about economies that matter

forgiveness:
Worry about the cannibals in your paradise.

I know you are one of the lucky ones to have stayed alive until now. Perhaps, you are one.


One of the suspects allegedly walked into a police station in the central South African town on Friday while holding human body parts, including a leg and a hand, and confessed to being “tired of eating human flesh,” according to the newspaper.

that dude deserves an SA national Merit Award fam.
Man legit strolled into a police station with human limbs !
LEGEND!

forgiveness:
You mean the South African officials can't differentiate between a South African and Nigerian to have established the fact that he's indeed a very Limpopo man? Bhuhahahaha!

After the investigator's discovery, South African officials travelled to Canada in 2013, hoping to bring the man back to South Africa, where they planned to laud him as a returning hero. But while they established that he was South African, he refused to answer most questions.

He could have been a respected O.G. at the Canadian prison.
Maybe man's wasn't ready to trade that for the land of 'Table Mountains'
Just saying though....since a'lotta conspiracy theories have been flying around lately.

A quick overview of the tallest skyscrapers in Africa.

The history of skyscrapers in Africa began in 1973 with the construction of Carlton Centre in Johannesburg, which held the title of the tallest building in Africa until April 2019.

Having felt the prestige that comes with hosting the tallest towers in the land, it is not surprising that South Africa has worked itself up to command the lion’s share of the tallest buildings in Africa.

Here are the 10 tallest buildings in Africa:

1. Leonardo, South Africa



Leonardo is a 234-meter-tall, 55-floor mixed use development that is being finalized in Sandton, South Africa. The skyscraper is located at 75 Maude Street, about 100 meters from the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.

Construction of Leonardo began on 17 November 2015, and the tower topped out in April 2019 – officially becoming the tallest building in Africa.

Leonardo is 11 meters taller than Carlton Centre, which has held the continental title for 46 years.

2. Carlton Centre, South Africa

The Carlton Centre, a 223-meter-tall skyscraper and shopping center in Johannesburg, South Africa, has remained the tallest building in Africa since its completion in 1973.

Designed by US architectural firm Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, Carlton Centre resembles the famous One Seneca Tower in Buffalo, New York, which was completed in the same year.

With a total of 50 habitable floors, Carlton Centre was once the tallest building in the Southern Hemisphere – the southern half of the Earth!

3. Britam Tower, Kenya

Britam Tower, a 200-meter-tall office complex in Upper Hill, Nairobi, was officially opened to the public in July 2018, overtaking UAP Old Mutual Tower as the tallest building in Kenya.

The 31-storey tower, whose construction started in early 2013 and ended in September 2017, boasts a very unique prismic design. At its widest, the building looks like a black pyramid with the top corner missing and from other views it becomes a more slender black prism.

In 2018, Britam Tower became the first building in Africa to be feted in the Emporis Skyscrapers Award’s 19-year history after it was named the 10th best skyscraper in the world.

4. Ponte City, South Africa



Ponte City is a 172.8-meter-tall skyscraper in the Berea suburb of Johannesburg, South Africa. Built in 1975, the 55-storey tower that was designed by South African architect Manfred Hermer is tallest residential building in Africa.

Ponte City boasts a cylindrical design, with an open center allowing additional natural light into the apartments. The building is documented as the first cylindrical skyscraper in Africa.

5. UAP Tower, Kenya

Located in Upper Hill, Nairobi, 163-meter-tall UAP Old Mutual Tower became the tallest building in Kenya when it opened in July 2016 after more than five years of construction.

The 31-storey building, which has since lost the title to Britam Tower, offers some 300,000 square feet of Grade A office space in Nairobi’s fastest growing commercial district.

Standing at an altitude of 5,700 feet above sea level, UAP Old Mutual Tower unseated Rahimtulla Tower as the highest point in Nairobi.

6. NECOM House, Nigeria

NECOM House (formerly NITEL Tower and earlier, the NET Building), a 160-meter-tall skyscraper in Lagos, is officially the tallest building in Nigeria and the entirety of West Africa.

Completed in 1979, the building houses the headquarters of former state-run telco, the Nigerian Telecommunication Limited. The spire at the top of the building serves as a lighthouse beacon for Lagos Harbor.

NECOM House was designed by Ghanaian architectural firm Nickson Borys, and Partners and it was built by UK-based Costain Group. It took over from Cocoa House as Nigeria’s tallest building.

7. Tanzania Ports Authority Tower, Tanzania

Tanzania Ports Authority Tower, a 157-meter-tall tower in Dar es Salaam, is the tallest building in Tanzania. Completed in 2016, the 35-storey building serves as the headquarters of the Tanzania Ports Authority.

8. PSPF Towers, Tanzania

PSPF Towers is a 153-meter-tall twin tower building in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The 35-storey building is designed to create a flexible module that can host countless office setups for a variety of uses.

9. Marble Tower, South Africa

Originally known as Sanlam Centre, Marble Towers is one of the popular landmarks of Johannesburg. Built in 1973, the 32-storey commercial building that is made from concrete and marble has South Africa’s largest electronic advertising board on its façade.

Marble Towers tops the Pearl Dawn building in Durban by just a centimeter.


10. Pearl Dawn, South Africa

Pearl Dawn, a 152-meter-tall residential skyscraper in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, ends the list of the ten tallest buildings in Africa.

The 31-storey building is one of South Africa’s recent skyscrapers having been completed in 2008.

Who told you his brother's DNA was used?

While a DNA test in 2014 did not find a connection to Mr. Makhubu's family, a South Africa radio network reported this week that the DNA test was inadvertently conducted on a family member who was not related by blood to both of his parents.

LOL So how did they count, indulge us!!!

In nearly every economic index we are far ahead of Tanzania. Yes we will take a hit wrt the coronavirus, but with our advance economy, changes Ramaphosa and Tito are making to our economic policies and lastly the extremely low oil prices will mean our economy will recover quickly!!

GDP is counted by including everything,even cows and goats are counted. In case of TZ,a lot of stuff are not counted.our GDP is far bigger than what u quoted.

In your economy, the chance of recovering is almost zero.It will take a big miracle for u to recover,a big miracle.mark my words.
You have started walking in scary,dangerous waters.No policy can save you,the only thing can work for u is strong prayers in a mountain

Shma:
Now tell me, why is your pillars not in the list of tallest buildings in Africa? ..

We don't have a pillar but if if you were referring to millennium tower then you.must know it is basically because it is under construction.....this stupid question is like you asking me why the stalled 88 condominium and the cancelled pinnacle tower was not included in your illusory list despite being at foundation level..

Wuoche:
You don't make sense at all. It is because three quarter of it is inhabitable just like your Millennium. If three quarter of it could be inhabitable then the structure could be listed among tallest buildings even if it is a communication tower.

Do you know what telecommunication tower is....why are Kenyans so daft?...like whyyyyyy!!!!

Shma:
it is not yet done, your pillar was completed back in 2014.

Then you have your answer already.... millennium tower has not be completed weasel..

Shma:
I have even tried to search for the tallest structures In Africa, I have seen hillbrown and the Cairo tower but nothing like millennium, seems there pillar stalled

This list of tallest structures in Africa ranks man-made structures in Africa that stand at least 150 m (490 ft) tall, based on standard height measurement. List is containing only completed structures, including demolished or destroyed structures.

Can you shed some light about this village eaten tribe of South Africa?

Are they Zulus or Xhosas?

Now you're reaching! The fact remains, there's no tribe in South Africa synonymous with cannibalism, but in Nigeria such exists & it's public knowledge. You can scour the internet all you want, looking for your fellow human meat lovers, what matters is, it's not a cultural thing like it is with your human eating Ngwa people. You even have dog eaters in Calabar. Y'all are a bunch of weirdos who'll eat just about anything & no amount of needle in a haystack cases, in South Africa, will ever equal to your own bizarre cravings.
