Yes, Bamburi rehabilated that quary into something. Nigeria need to do that esp in their dead Lego city of Abuja. The city need some vibe.

HAHAHAHA!? They could be going for a Haller Park type thing like the Bamburi Nature Trail in Mombasa but the idea is yet to spark!

West African don't have a maintenance culture. I watched the video on gold smuggling - and the paved roads are in some parts completely potholed.

They have axle control - but look like they are pleading for enforcemnt. In Kenya you only overload if you want to be fined so heavily you'll never repeat it again.

If you overload by less than 1 tonne - you'll pay nearly 2,000 dollars.

Try overload by say 4 tonnes - you'll get 10,000 dollars.

So their lord nigeria has extended dangote's favour in Ghana. grin
Ghana is lucky to have big boys.

Don't be surprised the so called paved roads are generally broken down.
Let them show us their maintenance budget.
Kenya Roads Maintenance Fuel Levy Fund is probably nearly 0.5-1B dollars annually.
You should see how dilapidated their roads really are.
They don't even have truck axle weight control smiley
So their are roads are completely fried off tarmac by Dangote trucks.
Shma:
where is 12k km?
Meanwhile, your ministry has approved that Ghana out of 70k km of total road network you only have 17k km paved in 2020 grin.

It's a shame only 23% of our entire road network is paved - Roads Minister
Video ArchiveListen to the Article
Minister for Roads and Highways, Kwasi Amoako Atta has said that the entire roads of the country including urban, feeder and highways comprising 72,381km of roads has only 23 percent paved and 77 percent unpaved.

Now go developed your under developed country.

However, improvements at the national level mask huge inequalities between the north and south of the country, and between rural and urban areas. Hunger and malnutrition persist primarily in northern Ghana, as well as many rural and periurban communities across the country.

Northern Ghana is the food basket of Ghana.

That is where 80% of Ghana food supply comes from.

wfp is not active there, the only thing they do in Ghana is give policy advice

Ghana had a drought that brought agriculture activities to a halt in 83 as well as sanctions which made import difficult.

Your country has starvation of 5 million people yearly for as long as you have been independent.

What stop you from developing your country such that you dont have yearly starvation to dependent on food aid ?
Northern Ghana continue to face hunger and starvation just like northern Kenya.That is why wfp is active in Ghana.Your Ghana beyond hunger is 2030 goal.It hasn't happened

But surely what is there to be proud of in Ghana. I mean by the time their president is showing up Nairobi of 1980s as their vision 2050 - then you know we are dealing with the real dwarfs.

We can donate entire west africa - and they have nothing close to this - in all the parameters - and yet they have so many minerals. Bunch of neaderthals.

We know your idea of luxury is to build a house and fill it up with italian, chinese, and spanish wares.
There is a lot that goes into making world class luxurious houses.
It start from designing the house to ensure you live in the most habitable environment possible.
It start from having enough large private spaces.
Look at that shitty Banana Island - you have mixed use development - the guy in the apartment can see what Dangote is upto anytime.
In Nairobi the high class residence are exclusively low rise...you cannot erect even a telecommunication mast without a huge fight.
Then it start from having right environment - with fresh air, natural breeze, birds chirping, name it.
Then you go surrounding - best hotels, schools, hospitals, name it.
That is why Nairobi is well regarded and our real estate is like our gold.

And we are not talking one or two estates - we are talking something like 1/2 of Nairobi landmass

I think AfricaTravellers is going to take pics of most of them

Nairobi has world-class houses designed by world-class architects. There is a lot that go into designing a house - to ensure you have best livable space as much as possible.

That is why they are sold for million of dollars and attract buyers world wide.

For example - Magnolia Hills estate Karen.

You are so cursed

Luxury is not necessarily expensive.

Those are homes you will hardly find in Kenya.

The closest you guys come to building something excellent is those cheap bush houses that they price for you guys above market prices with poor roads.

You enter inside and it is just normal finishing

And yet all you showed us as ceramic tiles from China. I bet like Nigeria and DRC - you export a lot of mahogany. In kenya we have to bring it all the way from Congo.

And now you're shouting Italian smiley and Spanish

Hahaha

keep revelling in cheap Chinese laminated wood

I prefer Natural Oak Vinyl Flooring as you will find in many Ghanaian homes
Foreign AffairsRe: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by rvp2018: 2:19pm On Aug 09, 2020
Italian are known for kitchenware and related. All the hardwood you need is actually from West and central Africa. All you need is to buy yourself Mahogany timber...and do what you want.
Just30:
I guess you dont get it

Did you say Italian ware is Chinese ?

Boy the Chinese might have really dominated your market with cheaps

I will take Italian finishing over your laminated wood from china any day all because they last longer than anything laminated to look like wood.

Foreign AffairsRe: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by rvp2018: 2:11pm On Aug 09, 2020
You clearly don't understand. Luxury/High end finishes are made from real (not fake) hard wood like mahogany - and those houses are designed to last 100yrs plus without losing their appeal - they actually get better with age. But come back to your chinese house after 10yrs and you'll have to re do it.

Just30:
Just middle class people

This is another


The upper class live in far luxurious properties
Foreign AffairsRe: Kenya Is Ahead of Nigeria In All Aspect (Facts Don't Lie) by rvp2018: 2:05pm On Aug 09, 2020
If you can afford to use hard wood flooring for your low cost housing - then you're world richest country.

When it come to wares ?

What do you mean! Houses are a simple structures

Luxury flooring, doors, windows, kitchen and related - hard wood (mahogany) if you can afford.Kitchen - you can use metal - you can import them - from italy and name.

Only places you should use ceramic tiles are the bathrooms.

What else - faucets, sinks, bla bla?

Just30:
grin grin grin grin
boy your hardwood finishing is basic
we use them in low cost housing cos it comes nowhere close to Italian and Spanish wares
