[s]Kenyan cities have water, sewage and electricity provisions. I am sorry but Abuja is not any better than Juba, South Sudan.[/s]

All the nonsense you listed has been debunked here..go back to those day when we bought your bullshiit crap most especially in electricity....

Nigeria have access to water than Kenya and that is facts....
I remember you where saying Abuja does not have central sewage system..well sorry to dissapoint you not all countries are as dysfunctional as your Kenya zoo...Abuja should be the definition of central sewage system...

davefurn:
South Africans are now part of the arguments.......... it's getting interesting ............but one love though...back to reading to comments.......love those pics though

Nah that SA dude is the one forcing himself into this conversation..

And do you know the methodology used in arriving at that?.

tylann:
everybodys opinion is welcomed

And who are you again to voice your comments....This is NL and a foreigner like you have no say what so ever....

Know your place

pacretus:
Did you just say Kenya had better roads than Nigeria.? You really are new here.

We have treated this...that SA dude by all means wants to join this conversation and constantly told how SA is better to sought ego....we know SA is better but let him pack well...

The nonsense was already entering his head to the point he mustered the temerity to compare SA with Germany....

vaxx1:
Germany rural settlement has a 100 percent of anything obtainable in the German city including farming factory. I actually don't see south africa been better in this regards. South Africa actually has it better than many africa state but that dosnt mean she is totally free of the attributes of africa. there is ghetto, slums, unregulated urban area , and high presence of poverty, unhygenic condition etc.. .. South Africa might be better than some of africa state but the gaps is not something spectacular....

I love how you cleared him...That ego was already rising too much ..

Austine1212:
But there are rural places germany, for many in africa won't șee it as rural cos roads and services they are well maintained.

But the village i grew up in in south africa has good roads, electricity, free clean running water, street lights, 4G lte network, good orderly streets, clinic,police station within 10km,... Some has bigger shopping malls bigger than those found in lagos, or accra or in kenyan cities

Quit this ego massaging...Are you trying to equate SA with Germany ...

Austine1212:
[s]Kenya have better roads compared tp nigeria

Deal with it

Maybe one day nigeria will reach that level[/s]

Who ask for your opinion?

Austine1212:
Part of it is informal, they illegally occupying the land



Alexandra has running water, electricity, roads, sewage system

Oh please stop lying..SA might be amongst developed nations in Africa but that doesn't mean you should lie and over hype her...Maybe apart from electricity the rest was just a big fat lie..

NigeriaIsDoomed:
Does that count? I want to see Nigeria move past the level she is. Is it not shameful that inspite of being inexhaustibly endowed with non-human and human resources Nigeria is still crawling?
You guys need to travel out when you come back you will hate these criminals parading as leaders in Nigeria.
Lagos, Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Delta should be pacesetters to other states in Nigeria because of their potential however these places are nothing to write home about.

Even Calabar too shouldn't be celebrating road along those other places that you mention...if only we can have a replica of umahi in 15 states we wouldn't be complaining about road that much..

NigeriaIsDoomed:
I swear Lagos is a big joke and nothing is happening there. Without the private sector and others Lagos wouldn't be different from other cities and towns in the country.

They make road construction look.like it is a big deal when clearly ebonyi has shown that with little you can achieve less...I heard the governor was in India planning to import electric tricycle to reduce carbon emission in the states..Tell me how many zoo governor has even thought of that....Did you know that the minute i entered ebonyi I didn't see one pothole, yes one was not seen with my eye till I got to my destination (maybe the route the driver chose was in impeccable condition)

I tell even Enugu has a better road network than the whole of Lagos mainland...Quote me anywhere..

stagger:
I passed that road and was in Ebonyi state recently. What Dave Umahi has done in a state that is supposedly Nigeria's poorest is proof that many other governors all over the country are full-scale thieves, preying on their state's resources.

I swear..Full scale thieves is an appropriate word...

mtisTheQubit:
Ok Sammy if you insist Arabs are white, then its alright with me..

About the travel thingy, i know naija is bigger.

Whether you agree or not, which one concern me....I have said my own piece..

vaxx1:
They are simply here for ego competition nothing more.

You are very right.......just watch someone will eventually come up to say I was jealous...

More anyway

But wait oooo, I have one question...why is is than they are no images of Nigerian cities online..This one that I managed to get is mostly from 2010 and I know what I had to go through to get it...

Anyway this port Harcourt ...

vaxx1:
They even boast about how kenya is highly known for hard drug dealings. I once bust their motor park economist ego, telling him more drugs dealing happens in west africa. but we don't boast about it cus it is not an achievement or prestige.

Nothing they won't boast about ..just the same way that motor park Economist was trying to boast about having more corruptly rich Polictians than WA that gained wealth grabbing lands and tea farms.....

Is that one also an achievement..

[s]Nairobi has emerged as the most expensive city in Africa for elite schools with fees hitting a Sh2.89 million ($28,479) high per year on the back of growing demand for international education, a newly-released report shows.

The analysis by International Schools Database shows that out of the six African cities surveyed, Kenya’s capital had the highest average fee as well as the most expensive fees charged, rivalled only by Cairo.

“This isn’t entirely surprising, since there is a high demand for international education in Kenya,” notes the report.

The trend also signals that Kenyan parents are increasingly embracing international education to give their children a better chance at upward mobility and set them up for admissions to top universities abroad.

Cairo, Egypt’s capital rivals Nairobi for most expensive prices with its maximum price for international education just under the $25,000 (about Sh2.6 million) mark, making it the second highest of the African cities surveyed.


The average fee for Nairobi’s schools, however, dropped to Sh733,394 compared to Sh902,000 last year. Cairo came in second at an average Sh606,253 while neighbouring Kampala was fourth at Sh495,056.

The minimum fees charged in Nairobi sat at Sh272,864 per annum with Kampala having the cheapest international schools charging a minimum Sh53,110 per annum.

Overall, Cape Town offers the cheapest median prices for international schools in Africa.

Nairobi’s high fees have seen institutions charge more on average than European cities such as Amsterdam and Copenhagen. South Africa’s Johannesburg and Cape Town have the most affordable international schools globally.

The International Schools Database uses the whole price of a full term for one 6-year old child, excluding once-off costs such as enrolment fees and application fees to calculate the cost.

Increased demand has attracted new players to Kenya’s lucrative private education segment, including Nova Pioneer and Sabis International School that is partly owned by Centum Investment Company Plc.

The high returns in the sector have also led to increased interest from investment firms.

Private equity firm Fanisi Capital has signed an agreement to sell Hillcrest International Schools to Dubai-based GEMS Education for Sh2.6 billion(260m USD), marking the latest deal in the high-end private education industry.

This was following a deal between a consortium led by PE firm AfricInvest sold Brookhouse School to UK-based PE fund Educas for Sh3.6 billion(360M USD) in 2015, making it one of the biggest transactions in Kenya’s high-end education sector.

Oh my gawd..you boasts about this too......

Julius Berger To Complete 25km Uyo To Ikot Ekpene Dual Carriage Way ...


The 25km 4 lane dual carriage way linking uyo the capital city of Akwa ibom state to Ikot Ekpene the major city in the Northern senatorial district of the state has progressed to an advance stage.
23km of the road has been completed and the last 2km will be completed by December 2019, according to the contractor handling the project. Nigerias best, Julius Berger ltd.
This is an akwa ibom state government project.

It is now possibe to see the terminal point of the road which is at the four point by Sheraton hotel from the construction site.
This road will cut the distance from both cities to less than 15 minutes by car.

The akwa ibom state government is also poised to link Uyo to the capital city to Eket the capital of the southern Senatorial district of the state with an equally important 4 lanes dual carriage way. To open up the state for easy access to investors and commerce.
That work is also at advanced stage and will be completed early 2020.

I was in ebonyi for the first time in 2017 and I can confidently tell that Lagos road is a big joke compare to what I saw in ebonyi...Their roads are so l
Solid and made of concrete.. ...

I was told that the people there have never had it so good....This is one of the poorest state in Nigeria performing wonders with meager allocations when Agbaya like Lagos is fumbling big time...

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
[s]When I visited Nigeria 2 months ago the eko Atlantic was a dead dog most of the projects have been abundant. The investors complained bitterly even the ones which have bought land in the area that when the local currency collapsed from 140 naira to the US dollar to 360 naira to the dollar it is no more economical. What this means is the price of the properties with have tripled and people cannot just afford them. A good example when eko Atlantic started the naira to the dollar was 120 naira so if you are going to build a project for 1 million u.s. dollar it will be 120 million naira today if you are going to build a project for 1 million u.s. dollar it is 360 million naira which people cannot just afford the properties. Right now I can tell you 60% of the project at eko Atlantic have been abandoned. To make matters worse the project is 300% over budget it is facing the same issue as dangote oil refinery because whoever buys property we have to pay the debt. The next thing most Nigerian middle-class and upper-class are running away from the country. Look how Nigerians are buying houses in Ghana South Africa even Namibia now you will be short I was hearing in southern Africa there are roads which are all the houses are owned by Nigerians[/s]

Noisy goat..you visited "Eko what" ? Do you think it is a place anyone can just walk into.. mostly especially psychotic folks like you...

Locate your chains pls

vaxx1:
Your history and logic is shallow and hallow. Arabs are not one single people , they are just a general speaker of Arabic. for example , the Levante-Arabs, The Berber-Arabs and the semiets arabs are 100 percent Caucasoid race .

cacuasoid does not mean white because there is nothing like white human colour, it is rather pale skin. genetically, their bone-structure and other antrophologically elements proves that the above Arabic speaking tribe I made mention are 100 percent pale and 100 percent similar to Europeans.....

Thank you jare,I love that point at bolded....I wonder where this bunch of nincompoops emanated from...

rvp20182:
long overdue

And so

mtisTheQubit:
Guy you need to travel a little bit an stop ths crap of reading wikipedia...Arabs are not whites...
Honest question ,those lebanese in your country you call them whites.. Ok naija got issues..Do you know how a white man looks like ? ..better ,have you seen a white person ?.. Ths is not the firsttime ya mumbled on ths white thing..you even suggested before(i can quote) that some Nigerians are so fairthey can give europeans a challenge

Shut your mouth, I have travelled more than your entire lineage and family tree will ever travel....Go to Wikipedia and tell me if you will source what I wrote...those where based on what I read in the past years and that is why I was confidently able to say what I said......

Would you rather I follow what the society thinks than what historical genetic reasearch has proven...

Austine1212:
Lol i was suprised, sorry my bad

By the way soweto is one of the best townships, so your research.. People always attach informal settlements to soweto

But in truth soweto a world class township

Our education is 3rd best in africa, its growing not dwindling

What of Alexandra in joburg

gallivant:
Arabs are Arabs and Europeans are Europeans. Arabs are not "white", Africans are not "black" either. So please, stop bleaching.

Are you trying to use this logic to dodge my question....Are you a Chennai or not? .. simple..

Obiano13:
[s]Homeless maggot shift abeg!!! Arabs are Arabs not caucasians.[/s]

Foolish boy Arabs are caucasians anyday, anytime.....you might need to check up on some little history to cure your self from that ignorance....
See ethopians, Somalians, South Asians, middle east, North African, European (apart from Hungarians) are all consider caucasians genetically...Being referred to as a caucasian doesn't necessarily centres in your skin colour but more on your genetic makeup/relations, skull, facial features... According to a German anthropologist in the 18th century labelled all those groups causasians based on the features I list above, although the name caucasians actually originated from the people in the "cacuses region" e.gnorth Africa, middle east.....

Listen caucasians are white but not all whites are caucasians...I regarded Arabs as white because the US courts saw them as one when issuing citizens to immigrants in the 1952 or thereabout...As at that time Italian, Irish, Portuguese were all regarded as whites and citizens by the US courts alongside Arabs but they rejected Chinese and Indian immigrants as whites and denied them the white privileges as well as citizenship.....So Calm your titties down whenever you hear me refer to Arabians as white folks....Forget all the "MENA" noise in the U.S they have been regarded as white folks for a very long time.....

obidark:
you think afro-americans think they are still africans....??
yeah,their are some nolstagics,but no....not....!!

They don't have to think it to make it any less true... Originally they are African cos they are black and their race emanated from this continent..

Shma:
. The guy is a Kenyan by nature. He got nothing to do with Asians or Australian origin the way you put it in technical jargons as it sound "caucasoid and Australoids" , Taita is a sub-tribe from mijikenda and Kamba is a Bantu origin.

You can be American of African descent, and that is why they are address as "African-American" to pay attention to their origin..

So he might be Kenyan of Indian descent..

Obiano13:
noisy fool from ajengule who thinks arabs are whites

Dont you be an idiot, homeless street goat....Arabs are white whether you like it or not..

Maybe you are deluding yourself with that noise trump has been making about "MENA"( MIddle east or North American)

Obiano13:
[s]Which world do these idiots live in Shut your stinky mouth if you never left your ajengule!![/s]!

Shut your mouth you idiot and stop barking..

Go locate your chains

Shma:
Black is kinda ambiguous when referring to human beings or rather Africans. Maybe you can view it on physical perspective or Nationality perspective but reality on ground will still remain.
