All of you making fun of the presidents dressing are ignorant and dull..in international circles..nigerian presidents are know for always representing nigerian culture, in the mist of all the suit and ties is the agbada, atibor,etc..

During the last commonwealth summit in australia, when other leaders where being introduced to queen elizabeth, but when jonathan came before her, she instictively said "the nigeria president, you're all always in touch with your culture".

The people of imo state better hold this man before he hits the streets o! Next thing he'll declare himself the supreme commander in chief of imo state, generalissimo rochas okorocha and build a square where goose stepping soildeirs will be saluting him!!

3,000 dollars for that rubbish monthly meanwhile many west african kids go to bed hungry...it is either a lie, exargeration or plain stupidity and insensitivity.

Some people just have the tendency to say rubbish always. A "nigerian" fighter jet crashes and some simpletons have already started mentioning civil war era plane, no fuel etc...but just some days back a u.s military cargo plane pratically fell from the sky like a paper kite in afganistan, no stupid comments then o! Ignorancai!!

I'd rather boil my eyes in acid that watch that shambolic abormination!!!

Ozin: She no dey fear? na Asari we dey talk about o!

fear wetin? Ibim seminetari is an okrika woman, what does asari know that she does'nt? She is just a well cultured, articulate and educated woman and her comment proves it!

Look at this confused almajiri..was he not the one who said he was so disappionted with jonathan than he has applied for benin republic citizenship, now he's had a revivial..i don't blame him, it's the amatuerish nigerian press that gives his coverage and the avenue to vomit trash.

shymexx: Luanda is actually a very beautiful city - they've got tunnels over there as well!!

this is not an african city! This is either spain or portugal because those two slant towers are the headquater of the bankia santander. Don't mislead folks.

babe_online: hahahahahahaha. I lived in Nigeria for 16 years, Abuja for 14 (now living in Canada) and trust me Nigeria cant beat this. Do you know how much Congo has?

yeah, maybe it can use that money better in law enforcement, so it can stop being the RAPE capital of the world.

shymexx: That's because there's no space for that...

But the tallest building in London has about 72 floors...

he is not disputing that there are skyscrapers in europe but they are relegated to select parts of cities like canary warf in london and la defense in paris to create a distinction between class and glass..and truely the real beauty of those cities are in skyscraper free zones, like westminister in london and the elysee in paris.

Afam4eva: Where do you get these pictures from? That's deffinitely not port-hacourt. PH should not even be mentioned here. The only reason why that town is ranked high in Nigeria is because the oil companies there. Remove that and it's just another Aba.

i refer thou ignorant self to my post above.^^

shymexx: Lmao... I doubt there are skyscrapers in Port harcourt and that's obviously not Nigeria...

the state secretariate in port harcourt is the tallest building in the entire southern and eastern nigeria, the presidential and la meridian hotels are the tallest hotels in the southern and eastern nigeria, and the nse building in d-line port harcourt when completed will be amongs the tallest on the continent.

One_Naira: Shut up before I slap am shut. Lagos was built by the colonialist and yet it still cannot measure up to most cities in Africa so wetin u dey yarn? Abeg move left and give credit to others.

when did "abuja" become lagos? Or can't you read? Or you're willfully ignorant.

What a disgusting pig this musician is, first of all how can he at his age disvirgin a 17 years old, now at 19 she's pregnant and he's awol!! how revolting. This is what this famed animals do and their low information fans will keep supporting them..in advanced countries their fans will boycott them and reduce their career to a mere memory.

One_Naira: my guy if you've been to other African cities, excluding horn of Africa, Ghana and ivory coast, you'll realize nigeria despite the big mouth ain't got sh1t to write home about. you should see nariobi, your mouth go stay open for awhile. mind you they suffering way more than Nigeria ooo.

keep vomiting rubbish!! How many african cities "built" their capital? Abuja is a "built" capital. Built from a barren land and today it's a city still growing. You mention cities like nairobi which are attestations of colonialist. Is it not in kenya where queen elizabeth was vacationing when her father died and she became queen? When she return years lateer she remarked to her husband phillip, "nothing has changed, they're really good at maintaining the old". Rubbish!

babe_online: Jisos!! This country is finer than Naija oooooo

i'm sure if you leave your village and live in an actual nigerian city, you won't make such a statement.

The apc nominating buhari to me is a missed opportunity on their part. Many niger deltans and igbo's are quite disappionted in jonathan and would'nt mind a change but the taught of a radical like buhari in aso rock will just push them back to jonathan. If the apc wants a shot at the presidency, they should nominate someone that can relate to every region of this country..they better rethink, the next election is still about 23 months.

COMPAQ: Jeez! Typical children on nairaland! Must your response contain insults? You won't go very far with such mentality you know! Learn to comment from an intellectual standpoint.

you're right!! And i apologise!

Banku&Tilapia:
Accra is da best and followed by Kumasi and one gud thing about these cities is dat der r no bombings and kidnappings. Muslims and Christians lives in harmony.

of course, when aimless, non ideological people are kept in two medival cities their is meant to calm. It's like zombies. If they're kept together, they don't consume themeselves.

COMPAQ: Lagos obviously!! I see a number of references to port Harcourt in the thread, and don't understand why. To me ph is a big disappointment. I was looking forward to moving here in 2006,but was very disappointed and so are many colleagues that moved at the same time so it's not about just me. We were all expecting much more. Ph has no proper middle class residential layout, no recreational facilities, no roads other than the few amaechi just dualised, no mall, no cultural events etc. The only thing to do here to go to eatery, drink and chase lousy chicks. Even the whole noise about ph girls has been proven be overated and once again, not by just me, but all my friends think so too!

reaccess your brain and you'll see that it's not port harcourt you visited, no residential area? But port harcourt is the home to the most company headquaters after lagos. No malls or recration? Ever heard of everyday in GRA, genesis delux, icinema,silverbird,atrium,emporiom etc. As for roads i don't need to answer you because it'll embelish your ignorance. Wow..better retrace your steps to where you visited cause it's certainity not p.h city.

That means buhari is not a man of his words, all those crocodile tears and promise that if he lost 2011, he'll never run again was all an act. Shamefull!!

gbaky_floor: Hate or love Kim she's verrry popular.

My mother knows her even my little ones know her. Do they know Angelina jolie? No

Angelina Jolie is like kate middleton we know them due to media hype.

As for Kim: whether you like it or not she's in your face, you have no choice than to know her.

you just mixed everything up, kim is the one popular because the media hypes her, apart from one ghastly reality show,a sex tape and doing red carpet interviews, what is kim know for, on the other hand, jolie is an accomplished actress and foremost humanitarian, while kate is the duchess of cambridge and future queen of the u.k and the commonwealth realms. It's a no brainer!

What an insult, angelina jolie who works with world leaders on charity issues, a u.n ambassador, gets invited to G20 and G8 summits is being compared to a qwasi porn star..how revolting!!

While the u.s is busy pursuing human rights(while they're force feeding prisoners in gitmo), china is locking down africa and putting the key in their pocket, when they wake up from their slumber, it will be too late and they will pay tolls to china before entering africa!!

Who is this plain jane?

Ironically he talks about governours tending to their states but he spends more time in abuja than yenegoa. Pres. Jonathan is really displaying political short sightedness by setting fire in the state that delivered the most votes to him in the 2011 election, the national PDP leadership is even warning him, because PDP is on the verge of collapse in the most consequential state in south. It's gonna be the beginning of the end for PDP if the rivers state fall in line with lagos politically.

pekelepekele: Obama is working . Jonathan is learning

obama will kill to get the growth figures nigeria is enjoying. Nigeria is currently growing at 7% will the u.s is strugguling with 2 or 3.

Mtn is bullphuckey!! And no matter how many celebs they steal from etisalat, they're already on a downward spiral...this just shows you that mtn is really scared of etisalat. They never tried this stunt with glo,celtel,zain,airtel all networks(former and current). And the "port" is really fast track people's abandonment of their silly network. So no matter what they do, they are already crashing. Move back to S.A!!

jp philips: wots the difference crack retailer??

you're asking me the difference? Which city has the tallest building in the entire south south and south east? How many corporation has their HQ in port harcourt? You wanna talk about the road network? Infastructure? Wow! Please get off the crack.

JideTheBlogger: I dey tell you

only a crack addict will compare onitsha to the city of port harcourt.

Who has that ugly feet on the pic? Looks like a bare footed farmer's.

Wow!! I taught yoruba's were very respectfull to their oba's, all the lying down on the floor kind of greeting...voilence is never a way to solve problems.
