By choice - they restrict height - but where is proof that Ghana dwarf building has anything to do with approval permits or zoning. The entire city of Accra is a hodgepodge of all sorts of ramshackle therefore I doubt there is any planning or zoning.

Their lack of tall buildings, therefore, is due to their informal economy, more than any zoning laws.

Roan77:
Washington DC doesn't have tall buildings.

The point is you import alot too - the net value of trade in vehicles - is small. what is local content of the cars you produce or assemble?

AfriqueDuZuid:
We export over $9b worth of cars
We also exports car pars also



South Africans buys over 600 000 brand new cars each and every year

Seriously! I doubt even Togo would say that.

Just40:
You so badly want to catch up to Accra, you need to try harder.

There is no class difference I am aware of slums. Maybe you can start defining upper, middle and low class slums. I guess South Africa slums would be upper class slum? Kenya middle class? And Makoko the low of lowest?

Vlain:
Aerial view of SA slum vs kibera slum lol the difference is clear

I would say that you as his drug supplier - please make sure the shackman got his usual dose - nothing less - nothing more. You are doing a great job in the middle of Joburg running those hills or hillocks! No crazy withdrawal symptoms nor overdose please.

Rvp what do u gat to say about this new revelation : i’de say thank u google.

Tanzania promise to be good kids - can't beat them join them - honestly, Kenya can help Tanzania - deal with their lethargy. This Suluhu doesn't have a chip in her shoulder coming from the forward-looking Zanzibar unlike the mainlanders here.

Remove the autonomous Zanzibar - and Kenya bordering North Tanzania - and Tanzania is HELL HOLE like CONGO

I will Miss You ; My TZ sweetie KAziKazi CCM will not like this.

Sammy, I think you should enjoy your liberty and freedom more as it looks likely Nigeria will revert to military dictatorship! Nigeris is war zone - the north is Boko Haram, the middle belt is farmers and herders killing each other in shocking scales, and the south are cutting oil pipelines and sounding secession war drums!

Nigeria long lost the debate - when they run to the echo chamber Obaderemi must be suffering -go give him company - be a nice kid.

If u like go back to 100 years ago.u are crap to SA now and in the future just as u were in history.No trolling just stating facts.

Kenya GDP as we speak 100B
South Africa GDP as we speak 320B.

Roughly 3 times.

Let go back to 10yrs ago.

Kenya GDP - 40B
South Africa -400B plyus

Roughly 10 times.

Let us assume as latin would say "ceteris paribus"

2030
Kenya GDP has double-plus to 300B.
South Africa GDP has reduced to 250B.

I think this kind of ceteris paribus is driving ad insaniam

Kenya I keep telling you has been nailing the basic - and is just about to VrOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

AfriqueDuZuid:
All I was doing was being reactionary

Kenya is no where near South African level, I'm just driving the stupid thread.

Nigeria (GENERATOR) and Ghana (DUMSOR) can only dream of this - even South Africa with load shedding

Our power utility to start compensating for any power cut

For 8 months of 2020 - otherwise year ended with 20% up 6.5M.

Kenya construction industry had rough patch from 2015/2016 -- when Kenya parliament passed Interest rate Control act -- otherwise if it had followed projection it would already be 10M metric tonnes.

Now that we did away with Interest Rate control - Banks are now lending to the real estate sector.

As for Ghana - you bonobo cannot even distinguish btw Installed Capacity and real production and consumption.

Ghana consumption has not reached 5M.

Just30:
Shut the fuvk up you fool...


Kenya's cement consumption for the 8M20 has hit a decade-high of 4.37Mt, according to the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics. Consumption rose by 11 per cent form the 3.95Mt recorded in the same period a year earlier.

Kenyan cement consumption has not passed 4.18Mt since 2016 and the rise in 2020 comes during the disruptions of COVID-19. Small-scale construction projects were largely unaffected in Kenya by the pandemic and restrictions imposed in March 2020.


In 2020 Cement consumption in Kenya was 4.37Mt and that was the highest since 2010.

You should have shared the global registry and shut up. That is rebuttal enough. Bonobo.

Just30:
My source is the global registry on the cement industry

your nonsense lies from your useless newspapers can be kept to yourself

So mineral excite you like a typical sub-saharan country. You're going down. Now you depend on commodities like Nigeria.

Looking for a place in upper hill,Westland,cbd or even Mombasa that looks half as aesthetically developed and beautiful as this. Lol Kenya will go bankrupt if an district in Kenya can look half as good as this even if it is to be build for the rich. I tell u in term of urban development Kenya has low standards. Take the back seat and learn to crawl before u walk.

Here is to realistic - Lagos and Abuja stunted real estate - has a glut lasting many years - thanks to informal economy.

Just finished reading the economist. Are you aware there are 600 unoccupied buildings in Abuja and nearly all your skyscrapper in Lagos are abandoned

In Abuja, Nigeria’s capital, the government last year said it would take over 600 of them because they had been unfinished for so long.

Just fact kiddo

i know it hurt your feelings because your people are fuvking poor




don't worry, life will improve after the Kenyatta dynasty

Bonoboism

Just30:
Its just facts kiddo

there is a reason why all kenyans, talk about the filthiness of your country, once they arrive in Ghana.


You guys are the reason why Kenya is undeveloped, you are too filthy

Bonobo indeed bereft of facts

Just30:
Can hustling build the beautiful mansion everywhere in Ghana?

The only hustlers doing hand to mouth are in Kenya and it explains the level of depravity.


The Ghanaian economy is more formalised than what you have in kenya.

You cant talk of formal retailing when 99.9% of trading in your country is done in filthy markets and rubbish filled places like Eastleigh.

Taxes paid by 30 million Ghanaians is more than taxes paid by 53 million Kenyans.

All revenues from Minerals do not go into the tax basket of Ghana.


more bleeding

Since 2010..11 years it has been stagnant. South Africa use to be far ahead.Now ever since their annoying vuvuzuleas quiten at end of 2010 world cup their economy also quiten.In meantime Kenya economy has grown from 30B to 100b in that period

Nope he thinks SA is stagnant with nothing going on- just patiently for Kenya to overtake her in 2 centuries.

The cattle kraal is of course not in Mombasa level

Remind me again. How do you compare this to urs. Surely ur visual lens must be that bad.- heck even the thumbnail from the videos matches the pics shma just posted and to think that that were the drive through went through makes Kenya look e en more pathetic to me.

Let's check on development.

Better than Abuja and Accra

vankelvin:
Oh I knew that long time.

I have had lots of conversation with a number of East Africans, even in my church we have about 11 of them of which 5 are Kenyans. They always speak about how clean Ghana is.

If nothing at all, Ghana beats Kenya in sanitation.

And when you read through the comment section in Afrikan Travelor's video you will notice a lot of comments are about sanitation, and how clean Ghana is. We are not there yet but Kenyans should take a back seat when we talk of sanitation.

Let him stay on nairaland and lie to himself.

Another day another render -Another day another wet pipe dream.

This signed contract will join the list of abandoned wet pipe dreams like ugatuzi,500k housing and the rest. Heck those once moved from contract sign to awarding and still died at the groundbreaking stage lol i cant laugh bro,I just cant

ugatuzi is under construction after court dismissed the case against it.They already demolished chaka place..very well known in kilimani

Ignorance is a bliss

Shaytun:
Lmao

There are no 10 lanes road in the whole of Kenya....and that’s a fact.

Abuja is not your mate.

The outer northern expressway, Abuja airport expressway are all 10 lanes road.

No such exist in dirty Nairobi

You can't teach us aviation. Its likely we will overtake Nigeria in 2yrs time in the number of passengers..to be just below south Africa and Ethiopia

Hope we will benefit fully from all these minerals

You're now shifting the goal post. At least Abuja is for Nigerians. I live in Abuja. We live peacefully here. Your cesspool Nairobi has been stolen by the Chinese and Indians. Nowonder obaaderemi call you people little Indians

Nairobi is a vibrant international city that can never be compared to your cattle kraal. Mombasa too.Abuja for me is just a epic failure. No Nigerian except hired by federal gov want to go there. Everyone wants to go to lagos.Abuja streets are empty..lagos is a hell hole of humanity

Just30:
facts

Define what a fact is the little zooman.I am intrigued

Kuruptnigga:
Abuja is a place for big boys. A place you can drive safely with your latest Bugatti and Ferrari it's not a slumpolis like Nairobi. How do you expect a slum dwellers like you to live in a developed and beautiful city like Abuja. A slum dwellers like you can't afford to live in that city. Far more developed than your cesspit.

Abuja is place for northern illiterate Nigeria big boys sitting on cowardly southern boys..this is true for most of west Africa..the sahel desert drive the herders down.. they displace and kill the southerners..only in Nigeria do they have power thanks to moving capital to abuja..elsewhere the capital are in the coastal south.Abuja is symbol of Nigeria colonization by the north. Ghana is better that way because they keep the northern primitive on their place.Sahel desertification plus islamism has allowed a cattle kraal like Abuja to benefit from oil leaving lagosians sleeping on their cars for 5 days.Imagine Kenya being controlled by desert boys..somalis and borana of Ethiopia

Kuruptnigga:
Nairobi has more slums than Abuja. Nairobi is not as planned and clean than Abuja. Nairobi is a cesspit compared to Abuja. That I don't dispute. Nairobi is not even at Port Harcourt level.

Abuja is dead civil servants city..why would a slum dwellers or rural person go there..everyone goes to Lagos...20 million city of mega slums .Abuja is waste of money .The street are empty..almost a ghost town .Daily Nigerians trek to Lagos looking for opportunities ..nobody apart from fulani herdsmen go to Abuja.Epic failure .A cattle kraal.

Bonoboism is back at full display at Tema port..the smaller zoo..kibera provide cheap labour for Karen,CBd and industrial area..cleaners, gardeners that kind.It true for most developing Cities..slum develop from low grade workers trying to create walking distance to their job.Few cities allow Slum dwellers to integrate like in west Africa
