COUNTRIES WITH THE BEST SHOPPING MALLS IN WEST AFRICA.

West Africa undoubtedly have some of the best Shopping Malls in Africa. All the *16-17* West African Countries can boast of either "small, medium or big shopping Malls".

A little background info
An emerging middle class with purchasing power is attracting foreign direct investment in retailing, and is giving rise to modern supermarkets. This trend is being bolstered by the desire of many African cities to modernize.

New shopping malls are being built across the region, with a combination of public and private funds; and global supermarket chains are being sought as anchor clients. This is giving rise to a supermarket revolution.

But while a retail boom is taking place inside supermarkets, another related boom is occurring in the streets of West Africa’s expanding cities, as millions of unemployed people seek a livelihood in street trading.

But the focus now is on 4 West African countries with many shopping Malls, namely
Nigeria
Ghana
Cote D'ivoire and
Senegal

When you live in glass house you don't throw stones.

You are always first to post about sanitation issues knowing very well that your country has the worst of sanitation in Africa.

When we start exposing you don't come begging

yeah.. and that's what am about to do.. go into cities,jungle's,sahara's,sahels,coast lines heritage sight and expose them to the world.. yeah nigeria isnt a first world! but it superly hyper underated through the eyes of google.our landscapes are shadowed yerning for publicity.. check mambila platue,shiroro dam and see what i mean.

Unless Tayo Aina or any of the big YouTube vloggers in nigeria sponsor him *African Traveler* to come to nigeria cos his visit to Ghana was fully paid for by Wode Maya.

Biafranboys:
.

You can do better.

The report was in 2018, Ghana payed the money in 2019.

Now we are in 2021 so update yourself.
You can't hold unto past stories.

Post a report that says Ghana owes nigeria Gas in 2021.

Just30:
So you still want to compare the small Nairobi to a historic city like Accra that best it in all things?


This is a Ghanaian taking part in a protest to put pressure on Government just like how we put pressure on all govt to make sure we get the best out of them.

This is how come we have become so developed.
By holding our leaders to account.

This guy was not even comparing anything in kenya to Ghana because there is very little to compare.

He was comparing his years of travel around the developed world to Ghana.

Ohhh, you shouldn't have replied koraa.
Let's allow them to wallow in their ignorance.

So does it mean they don't know about the social media protest happening in Ghana?

Something all the big Media houses around the World are reporting on?

What did the guy talked about?
Dustbin
Roads
Pavement etc. Does it mean we don't have these things in Ghana?

Whilst we are putting pressure on our Government to do more, here they are jubilating because this video was done in Kenya? Such low life's.

Just30:
So I left for a few moments to have time with my fiancee and I can see the scare low self esteem rat coming out of his hole already.



Madness is really a disease

He's even scared to address me directly but will rather throw cheap shots.... ain't moved guy

We can all screenshots comments but I'm mature enough to work with facts.

So typical of him. Leave him koraa

aguerogh:
You seem to hate Ghana soo much, so why do you continue to live and work in Ghana? Why not go back to Nigeria which is better in your estimation, why continue living in a "shithole" .It doesn't make any sense to me you prefer to live and work in a shithole than your own fatherland Nigeria, you seem pained everytime you talk about Ghana but you continue to live there it's seems like madness to me.

Bro, worry not

He has his dumb followers who believe whatever he says so let him massage their ego.

AfroCircus:
Let me show you how that post concerns you. You asked for these

I did you one better and posted far much more than that, inclusive of all you asked for, just in case goals changed and you asked for something else. And my post was well in line with the thread's title.

I have no qualms with Nigerians, or Kenyans, or South Africans or Ghanaians for that matter. I have qualms with people who resort to whataboutism and strawman diversions in the face of facts presented. If we can engage in a quality fact based discussion, then that's the best way forward.

You don't get it? Do you?

Let me explain to you why I think you are not okay up there.

Shma2020 is a Kenyan
I am a Ghanaian
And the conversation was about Ghana-kenya so why do you have to post
Kenya-nigeria stats? What for?
Who does that?

What has that got to do with our convo?

AfroCircus:
Yeah, that long rubbish I posted. Had more data on it than all your posts on Nairaland for the last 10 days. As to what it was for, read the thread's title, digest what it means, then go back to that long rubbish I posted and see it's relevance.

And I see you're like that fly that wont fly away no matter how much it's swatted at. Well, keep on buzzing around my posts as you wish.

How does that long post concern me?

If you have a problem with nigerians, locate any of them and post that long nuisance to them. Don't just quote people then you post anything for posting sake.

AfroCircus:
Meh! I don't indulge in the childish melodrama you seem to thrive in. If you've got nothing of substance to table, avoid quoting me.

Which substance did you put on the table?Cow dung.

That long rubbish you posted, what was it for?

gallivant:
Not interested in bonoboism. This is not the way to tackle ignorance.

Okay.
Hungry bunch

AfroCircus:
And what or who on earth is Shma2020?

Are you trying to rub off stats by a gimmick that I'm a someone else's alias? I joined Nairaland in 2015, that's 2 years before you so if there's any alias, must be you mate.

And I'm yet to see any noteworthy response to the stats I gave, seems the quality of discussions regressed a lot since the last time I was on here.

The bolded.

Congratulations, you've won for yourself a cow blood. Go to nairaland office for your award. Kwasiapanin

gallivant:
Bonoboism seems like an inbred trait. Don't expect me to post starving hobbits. It's called class.

You repeat that again "Kenyans don't eat dog".
Foolish Kenyan elder

AfroCircus:
I'll even go further and post some stats on Kenya vs Nigeria, just to reaffirm the authenticity of this thread. Last I posted on here was about 3 yrs ago.

Shma2020

You know I'm a Ghanaian so stop beating about the bush clown.

Wuoche:
[b]Maasais have enough to eat and besides dog meal is not on their menu. [/b]Ghanaians are known for eating dogs and that's why I want to give it to you.

I don't think so.
They've got nothing to eat so give it to them.

Shma2020:
Why are you defining yourself

Can't you see some irony in your statement?

Keep crying

Shma2020:
The bolded is what makes us reason for you - Courtesy of jamb education.
Your questions were out of context so I had to formulate another question for you silly kid.
See, you're formulating another questions instead of focusing on the questions at hand ..
But I will just answer to save your miniscule brain from bursting.

Purchasing power parity does not determine wealth - go and study economics.

2)---poverty rate does not determine total wealth and if it does, it's already factored in our per capita(one yardstick for total wealth calculations)

3)---Unemployment rate does not mean poverty.(there are billionaires who are self employed)

Don't engage in something you don't know dimwit.

Emboldened: My question hit you so hard that your punnie brain freezed totally.

1).. Ghanaians don't write jamb (free education for you). Don't repeat that anywhere.

2).. Clown, I asked you a clear-cut question, just answer and save us your emotional tantrums.

--- What's Kenyans poverty rate. Go straight to the point.

3--- What's your unemployment rate?

These are the things you should be worried about everyday (thus if you really care about Kenya)

Wuoche:
My dog has died mysteriously today, I was wondering how to send it to you.

Give it to the Masai's to drink the blood since they've not eaten the whole day

rvp20182:
If you remove gold, oil, aluminum and other minerals from Ghana GDP; it just another banana republic. Minning contributes about 10% directly to the economy - and I bet bigger if you see the value add. The add oil.

Stop blaming Ghanaians for your poverty.

Go tell your Moi/Kenyatta families to give back state stolen lands and stolen monies to the poor citizens.

Just30:
i don't know if its the dumbness or the stupidity


You do know that, that is individual wealth of a few selected people right?

You also do know that a country wealth is measured differently right?

That guy is too empty and emotional idiot

I sit on his flat face( his lunch box head)

Shma2020:
I'm glad you realized your insults and tantrums won't work on me .

When I say wealth, I don't mean GDP or HDI. Those two are not wealth.

See how your brain is shaking already .. The only thing that came to your mind is poverty and unemployment? Ghanians Ghanians Ghanaians.... You guys are funny lots. I remember the last time I engaged you on this you were confusing wealth and GDP until i proved you wrong.

Wealth is just a total sum of all indices that ranks wealth.

That's how come most of you kenyans fail in your final exams.

Read through the questions I asked you?
QUESTIONS
What of PPP?
What of your Poverty rate?
Unemployment rate?
Your HDI?

Then look at your answer below?
SMH

forgiveness:
Please, where is that place, the 3rd picture?

Nairobi main CBD

Shma2020:
What is with my mental health? Telling you what you need to know? Don't just use words to make your post look big. Understand what you're saying, analyze what has just transpired and engage your puny brain to see if what you're saying makes sense. Don't embarrass yourself!

Sitting here 24/7 should be directed to your big baby brother Justozombie.

Moi/Kenyatta family .... What about them? ... Is this the stupidity in grandeur or you're just blubbering words to make argument?

We don't compare poverty, only hobbits will see that. we're 5th richest country in Africa and Nairobi is 6th... So we compare richness with big countries like South Africa and Nigeria not weeny poor underdeveloped countries like Ghana.

The emboldened is enough
6th richest per what? GDP?
What of PPP?
What of your Poverty rate?
And unemployment rate?
Let me know where you fall under these categories.

Also check your HDI
This will help you understand why real kenyans live in the slums whereas non-kenyans live in the few best areas in your country.

gallivant:
Well said. When the bonobos are done we can continue with the positive reinforcement.

Kenyan elder sit your flat ass down.

Shma2020:
You don't seek attention yet you're busy quoting me? That goes to show that your diminutive brain has no power to articulate your thoughts and put them into words.

Certified idiot is basically an anger portrayed in words because I called you an idiot instead of Bro .

Everything that I've posted here rotates from Accra, Kumasi and Takoradi, I didn't copy pasted Mogadishu in Somalia and claim it to be Ghana.

As for me and all Kenyans available here, we're open to facts and very sober debate and if tantrums and insults are something to go by, then we're also in, okay?

Post every pic of Nairobi that you want to post and no one will come to condemn you for posting, we'll return the favor when the right time comes.

You better go check your mental health cos you've lost it.

You sit here 24/7 trying to compare your poverty life with other countries? and you call that fact check?
If this is how the ordinary kenyan think then that best explains why Moi/Kenyatta families(just two families) own 2/3 of all Kenya lands.

Miserable bunch.

Yes we are not there yet, we need to do more but we will not sit there and allow some poverty endemic citizens to throw dust into our eyes

Just30:


so kibera is synonymous with Darkness

boy you are mean

Exactly

Bonoboism is for bonobos. Find a better way to promote Ghana.
