which country are the first pictures?

That is Beverly hills in los Angeles and London too

IVORY2009:
If United States, Great Britain, etc can do it, yes Nigeria can, if the right set of leaders are in position of authority.

Definitely

omoharry:
The country is too poor to have such .Even if all the fantastic structures are put in place ,it will not stop the hawkers,and street urchin ( supported by politicians ) from defacing the place with thier dirty and rickety buses, dirt and human waste. We need to attend to our citizens first before any meaningful development can happen in this country.
At present Nigeria look like a caused land that nothing seem to work .

Poverty alleviation is the number one thing to be done before all this can be put in place!!

Or better still we can do both at the same time in order to fast-track the development!!

But our biggest problem is leadership

Even if I can't enjoy this, at least let my children enjoy this kind of world class Infrastructure in Africa!!

Barcelona, Spain

IVORY2009:
Nigeria streets can be great again .

It has never been great!!

Once the governor's build 2km of road at different local government with open gutters, Then top it up with a flyover at the capital,,,, GBAM!!!! They've worked, the next thing is to start looting!!

What breaks my heart the most is the masses praising them, It sucks to be black walahi


Just take a look at this better street!!

Looks like the black people's brain is so fūçked up that we can't think of anything else than corruption

We can't even boast of any Successful black nation

RuudVanNisteroy:
Look at Alpha Beta owned by Tinubu that collect taxes in Lagos involved in N100 billion fraud . Nigerians don't pay taxes because they know it will end up in bullion vans.

It's all as a result of failed Government!!

PhiliptheArab:
Which is why your idea of going into politics is a good one.

You can be an example of a non corrupt leader.

But you cannot build a successful country on just oil.

Plus recovering loot will soon finish.then what?

Good evening. Got to leave this thread now. Nice talking

The problems with most leaders in Nigeria and Africa at large is that most of them are not visionary And creative, 99% of them are only going into politics because of their pockets, They aren't really passionate about developing the nation!

VeeVeeMyLuv:
Exactly,

it is painful to see so called politicians and their children catching cruise, display opulence in full public glare with tax payers money

I swear down!!

Everyone has left us behind, Even china that's the world poverty capital 30years ago!

Just take a look at this!!

Nigeria leaders both past and present should be killed by hanging, Those that are dead should be brought out and re-kill properly

PhiliptheArab:
Yes, we can use the billions and build new streets.

The next problem is how you maintain the streets, upgrade the streets and so on

That bit costs far more than what we can raise from seizing billions looted

An average Nigerian is ready to pay as long as you are going to give him enough assurance that his money won't be re-looted

PhiliptheArab:
We don't have these kind of streets in nigeria because we are not ready to pay the kind of taxes that would fund and maintain those kind of streets.

In the UK, if you are living in the city, you pay council tax which ranges from 60000 to 100000 naira monthly depending on the city. That money goes into making the cities look nice

That's why uk cities have great streets.

If we charged that kind of tax in Nigeria, Nigerians would scream.

So we pay scanty taxes and get scanty and bad roads

The bad roads we have in Nigeria are what we can afford. The sad thing is that looting still happens on top

If Government upgrade people's lives and reduce poverty, people will definitely be able to pay that Taxes,

But with high unemployment rate, Increase in Poverty, Tell me how will people be able to afford that?


In less than 20years, The Government of china moved 830million people from extreme poverty to middle-class, 830million people that's 5 times the population of Nigeria!!

If Government can do that in Nigeria too, why won't people pay those taxes you mentioned??

So those billions that has been looted, is it not enough to build something like this??

Even if people pay those taxes you mentioned, it will still be looted! Stop defending rubbish

RuudVanNisteroy:
I shame for Nigeria, and the leaders looters travel abroad and see these streets

Bro I am contemplating on joining politics, wanna try my best to get my state to look at least close to this!!

ProfessorBerlin:
make money travel out.


Nigeria na scam

No be everything be travel out Abeg!!!!

Even ordinary Windhoek in Namibia, Has a beautiful streets with well paved roads and sidewalks, and to imagine Nigeria is 10 times richer than Namibia oo

We're finished in this country

Will my generation ever see this kind of streets in Nigeria??

We are so fūçked up mehn

Chai!!!

Apart from patching roads and building useless bridges where it's not even needed, What other things do they politicians see as development?

Imagine having this kind of cool streets in Nigeria with Good drainage system and not this open gutters we have everywhere??

Why can't black people think out of the BOX??

This OP mumu ooo, You uploaded more photos of Iyabo-Ojo than the woman that died

What the hell is wrong with Yoruba??


This is just so unbelievable!!! WTF?

Break this country,, Una dey form One Nigeria!!

Every city in Nigeria should be replan with a Grid-like road network and Good drainage system!!


But the governor's are sleeping while blaming federal government all the time!!

After seeing all these pictures, all I can say is, Nigeria is so fūçked up mehn

No black nation dey top 30 world powers




This race is so fūçked up mehn!!!

How I wish at least 70% of Hausa/Fulani can be like This Shehu Sani and reason like him,

I bet Nigeria won't be as worst as it is right now!! But unfortunately, A typical Hausa youth thinks like the HISBAHs

50 of me, and this nation will be great!!

Panel ko, Panel-beater ni

Just like someone told me the other day: "A typical Nigerian is corrupt, He's just not happy that he's not benefitting from the corruption"
