Who let a road get completely destroyed like that.We spend billions annually to maintain existing paved roads before building new ones.That is why our road quality is good.Fuel levy for road maintaince fetches about a billion dollars annually.West Africans need to have maintaince culture.. Ghana is the worst am told..the country I heard is litttered with abandoned projects or completely dilapidated ones.
To answer the questions at bole, it is Kenya....you had up to 12% O your road tarred in 2002 but folded your hands a. Watch it break down to 7%

You know pipeline if it was in Ghana would be amongst the tallest building..there are 10 floors on average...those are estate that one graduate to from slums... single rooms.You find Nigeria 10 of them in such houses.
Nigerians are on your luxury homes so your real estate sector won't ground completely to an halt..

Like ibandan-lagos highway that has been under construction since 1970s...there is a town named after the contractor that came out.. Berger.Nigeria has no concept of budget..projects stalk for lack of money considering salaries n pension is a mountain
Stop talking trash..provide us credible root that says lagos-ibadan has been under construction has been under construction since 1970...

I dont know what you mean but the whole of lagos-ibadan is tarred , not a single part is untarred...what we have is pot holes is some places which is as a result of neglect over a long period of time..... lagos-ibadan is currently being sorted out

If I was your teacher I would similarly kill myself rather than face the ignominy. Kenya take education very seriously. We don't have oil or arable land or gold like most countries.If you travel around Kenya youll find grade 1 kids at school before dawn..those in high school barely sleep for 5 hours.There are very few countries in Africa that take education as seriously as we do...maybe Chinese n Indians.

It still doesn't Change the fact that Lagos alone has more road project than entire Kenya.
Rvp is smoking...how can Lagos -ibadan be in construction since 1970...1970 should be when it was completed (that is if it was the abacha era)....it has broken down since then hence the new reconstruction which commenced 3 years ago..

When oil was $100 Nigeria's GDP grew at an average of 8% for ten years! There were jobs created and wealth made. Nigeria then had Africa's largest economy and Lagos GDP alone grew to be bigger than Little India's economy. wink

Now, we depend more on agriculture and services. Today, we are Africa's largest producer of rice, second only to South Africa in chicken and maize. Nigeria's fourth largest bank is like Kenya's biggest bank. grin

If oil rises as high as $70 and stays there for long, then you can expect Nigeria's GDP to grow by at least 5% as from this year and higher by 2021 and beyond.

Nigeria is not Little India where the fake economy is growing and people are losing jobs. Kenya is an anomaly. grin
He is foolishly pained...A at the time nigeria was growing on the back of oil at $100 we were not even taking infastructure so serious then because vthwrw was no need to diversify...ever since oil price went we equally went back to or drawing board, hence the massive infastructures going on meant to diversify the economy.....

We can see place revisited after been abandoned for over 40 -50 year...quick example would be apapa port road...

Most roads in Lagos are under
rehabilitation/reconstruction...some of which were built in the 70's and left to rot....

We are beginning to take not of the vast opportunities we have outside oil and with more oil money pumping in so will more infastructures be built..

Whilst KQ IS stick with three loss making aircrafts for 53m moronic population A state owned airport in Nigeria"IBOM" THAT OPEN 11 months ago has already grown to 5 aircraft from the two aircraft it intially started off with....did I forget to say the state is about 1m in pop but it I seriously kicking laggard loss making as grin
Before 2022 the airline should have commence international routes..


[b]Ibom Government Acquires Two New Aircraft For Ibom Air

The Akwa Ibom State Government has acquired two new aircraft for Ibom Airlines to make a total of five aircraft owned by the state.

Chairman of Ibom Air, Air Commodore Idongesit Nkanga (rtd), said during a press conference with newsmen in Uyo that the new aircraft would be unveiled this January.

He said Ibom Air had made about 3,000 flights since it began operations in June, and is now flying more routes.

Nkanga explained that before 2023, the state would float 10 aircraft, adding that the government had invested a lot in the aviation business to boost the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) of the state.

He revealed that the coming of Ibom Air had brought substantial economic improvement to the state. “Within these eight months, we will have five aircraft.

Towards the end of last year, possibly by October, we are expecting to add about two more aircraft to the existing three.

We did that because it was towards the Yuletide and we expected more people to travel.

But there was a little delay. “Additional two aircraft are arriving this January.

Within these eight months, we will have five aircraft. We have operated about 3,000 flight.

We have increased our routes, because when we first started, it was Uyo to Lagos and Uyo to Abuja. We have since added Abuja to Lagos and Lagos to Abuja.

“We have done enough to make on time departure and we have made about 97percent on time departure. “Before the end of this administration, we should be able to acquire 10 aircraft.

That is the target, before 2022 we should expand the domestic, regional and international routes,” he stated[/b]

Mkenya2019:
Do you have any empirical data to support this asinine allegation? World-class properties in places like Nairobi or Joburg or Cape town attract buyers from all over the world. Only the moronic would think that small segment of housing define the housing or real estate sector of a country.

South Africa may be a middle class country but it's albatross remains it's mostly poorly educated populace - and it manifest in most of the South Africans online. I dare say there is not much difference btw a south african and a nigerian when it come to educational outcome.

https://www.biznews.com/africa/2018/03/05/south-africa-kenya-education-schooling

What can South Africa learn from kenya.

To get a sense of Kenya’s historical overperformance, consider the 2007 results of standardised tests for sixth graders conducted by the Southern and East African Consortium for Monitoring Educational Quality. Kenya’s average score was 557 points. That’s well above South Africa’s average of 495 points. Kenyan children’s basic literacy and numeracy skills were stronger than South Africa’s.


In an email exchange with me, Dr Ben Piper, a seasoned educational specialist and long-term resident in Nairobi, identified some key things that he finds remarkable in Kenya:

…[I]n rural Kenya there is an expectation for kids to learn and be able to have basic skills … Exam results are far more readily available than in other countries in the region. The ‘mean scores’ for the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) and its equivalent at secondary school are posted in every school and over time so that trends can be seen. Head teachers are held accountable; paraded around the community if they did well, or literally banned from school and kicked out if they did badly.

If your parents were kenyan - this is what they would have done to your school - for failing to impart knowledge and skills required to function in 21st century.Closed the school - and beat up the teachers smiley smiley smiley
