I will not ansa this stupid question

sure you cant answeer it， i have not even learn from you， where is arinze and some orther nigeria smart dude here.

uzzyfire:
2 of d satellites were built by Nigerians and d new one is built by Nigerians , ghanains , Japanese engineers but d satellite is for nigeria and all d credit will go to Nigeria

am glad you recognize ghanian impact，ghana will launch its first satelite on 2020 but the prototype has began in 2013， nigeria satelite were source out quickly to take care of the growing telicomunication industry，, Nigeria's efforts have mostly been outsourced. NigeriaSat2, a telecoms satellite, was built by Nigerian scientists in the UK, at Surrey Satellite Technology, and launched by the Russian space programme.

uzzyfire:
loooooll Nigeria has 5 satelittes in space and is currently abt to launch anoda wan. guy don't even go to technology cos Nigeria is way ahead

to launch a satelites is all about your cash. And not necessarily about techonology， any country willing to spend may invite expatriate from foreign countries to do it for them.

You just can't hate Ghana even if you try(Like i said days ago,the everyday Ghanaians are different from the ones on nairaland.).Ghana is coming up these days and I think it boils down to the relative political stability it enjoys. Ghana was on its way to becoming the Singapore or Japan of Africa but somehow lost the flaming torch.I blame Osagyefo for this.He is the reason I don't trust politicians who talk too much.Ghana at independence had an enviable educational sector,the largest foreign reserve of any African country,a savvy populace,huge mineral and agricultural wealth,great natural ports.But somehow they managed to fritter it all away.I hope the new generation does better.

which osagyefo are you talking about？ it is an household name in ghana. I may mistake it for someone else . Ghana has a master plan from kwame inkrumah （first president）that has been left abandon by new comer politician who are following their own manifesto. I can tell you ghana still has a good and rich policy more than nigeria. Imagine if ghana is rich like nigeria. He will have achieve a first world class status.

dude Nigeria has launched satellites and is currently abt to launch Africa's first nanosatellite , Dangote became d richest Blackman in d world , Nigeria eradicated Ebola from Africa , we defeated boko haram(even america sed d whole world shud learn from Nigeria how we defeated boko haram . so that they can defeat Isis), our GDP became d largest in Africa .

and many more ...

guy I'm telling u that nothing will stop Nigeria from becoming d greatest country in d world , it has been signed and sealed by God . even if it take 100 yrs Nigeria will get there

and as for d naira, it will still pick up and once again become higher than dollar , trust me !!

tell me wat terrible things Nigeria has not gone through ? is it war , insurgency , political instability , corruption, poverty , lack of constant electricity , bad reputation .u just name it
but we still come out top of d continent . and u are telling me Nigeria will not be d greatest country in d world

are you so sure boko haram has been defeated. i know of a victim recently. How do you think naira will rise above dollar most used currency. Give us the statistic. I will be glad to learn from you. Pls not some religious understanding. How did nigeria eradicate ebola？ pls

In general i have identify three major problems facing africa at large. Lack of Food security , outdated education modules , religion fanatics.. They are still more anyway. What is your profound solution to this problem. Singapore and isreal has no arable land yet they can feed themselves and even have a enough to export. Imagine if isreal has a land like nigeria or ghana. She will have feed the whole world. Arabian nations too are trying.

Still on technology. How safe is it for a pregnant woman to deliver through surgical operation in nigeria and kenya. In ghana operation are carried out on women while chatting with her no sleeping drugs. Infact some women in ghana now prefer surgical opertion.

darfay:
But nairaland is by far more competitive and popular than those two Ghanaian stuff combined. pic quality of Ghana web is very poor though but all the same its a plus for Africa

in ghana that is the most common online forum. Well known than nairaland. I agree with you nairaland has a larger percentage and much international awareness. Note that population also count.

darfay:
Even speaking of technology Nigeria leads as even nairaland is by far the largest of it's kind in Africa

having more subscriber is a good way to measure you are doing well. but how many platform like nairaland in nigeria can bost of nairaland subscriber or almost equal to the amount. So there is no good competition available. Do you know there is china version of facebook and whatapp. It is very common in china and hongkong. It is predicted to overtake facebook in china . For instance in ghana we have ghanaweb and myjoyonline. This two platform are very compitative. I will like to see another interesting forum from nigeria enterprenurer

nice one bro. hopefully africa should do well so we can take over the market of africa from china an asia country

Hbuyosh:
Cmon, even motor assembling is still part of vvegicle manufacturing. Katanta does not produce all its vehicle components within the same factory. It soueces them from factories both within the country, and some parts are sourced from abroad. Then they are brought into the central factory.

Kenya had its first locally manufactured vehicles waaay back in the 80s, they were producing vehicles ideal for the rural conditions, the tractors and pickup trucks. The company however collapsed in 1994 due to mismanagement.

The local motor industry was again relaunched in 2008, with the introduction of tge Mobius 4X4 vehicles.

there is a diffrence when you source out the componet elsewhere to get your product done while you have master plan and architecural design with you.... And when you assemble under the condition and authority of a foreign company bro. I dont know muck about kenya automobile plant . You can educate us all. Nigeria is an assembly hub for peogo cars as far back as 1980. Ghana is underway to become precanto assembly plant in west africa. Therefore there is diffrence when you manufactured it and when you assembly it.

Good from nigeria. I will like to see kenya product too.

freshest4live:
Congratulations to Ghana for kantanta. Ghana is not the first in Africa to do such though(you can make your research) but even so we are glad you achieved this.

am not about the first person bro. just interested in showing you the prowess of ghanian in technology

This is RLG. A local ghanian ICT COMPANY. They are on plan to build the highest skyscraper in africa. A project worth over 4 billion dollars . It will have 75 floors with about 270 meter in height. Hope city. The company is presently educating nigerians in osun state. It has plan to establish in nigeria very soon. Read more about them. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rlg_Communications?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C4316101696Look at some of their product.

Pls let stop measuring cosmetic project like malls. Even somalia can be proud of one. Lets talk about technology and manufacturing. I will begin with cars then phones and computer will follow. This is a local made ghanian cars .it is both manufactured and assemble in ghana and by ghanians. The name of the car is kantaka. Read more.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kantanka_cars?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C9157607981. I will like to see nigeria and kenya cars . Pls not assemble ones like toyota or BMW.your local cars.

Kenya and witchcraft Nigeria is a learner in this regard.

The Kenyans always come with their witch doctor in Olympic participation. Their way of winning is not genuine. Ccc witch doctor

popizaino:

popizaino:
unfortunately few meters away from there lies my house in Abidjan so am the best person to tell you plateau in Abidjan doesn't have the amount of skyscrapers in marina let alone the whole of lagos.

the wiki link is not limited to one area. It even involve yamazukoro. Cote d voire Capital.Lagos has more i admit. But abidjan has more building with more floors.anyway i will be coming to abidjan nextweek. Hopefully we can hook up.am coming for an educating program. Ncc education to be launched there. You may even brings your friends. There is some little stipend for guys who can bring any interested student. Lets talk more.

freshest4live:
Your link says the tallest building is 120m and there are ten buildings above 80m. This may be better than Accra but definitely not Lagos.

it is not my link. i did not create it . it is wiki reference. But it seems you do not check on the floors and the date of the bulding.

popizaino:
and not up to lagos as well

check this .read the date ,floors and the height. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_in_Abidjan?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C4914070860

forgiveness:
Nairobi standard indeed.

then you have to agree on the standard set by wikipedia. which is 80meters height

kikuyu1:
Fellow Kenyans and sentient beings on this thread,good news! Very soon the first oil exports will begin by road since the pipeline needs another 2 years. China and India are already lined up to but our high quality light sweet, favoured for diesel and avgas. Our known reserve of 750 mn barrels in Lokichar has increased to 1 bn barrels!
I have inside info indicating more significant finds in Kerio valley and Narok.


Naijjans,its not tens of billions but seeing what we've done with coffee,tea,tourism and dairy you've sneered at imagine what 9bn$ will do for us!?

Here's another study:
Read more at: https://www.standardmedia.co.ke/business/article/2000197510/turkana-oil-to-earn-kenya-sh6-4-trillion-in-23-years

Our break even price is 30$ per barrel,way below yours. And hell no! We won't abandon our other industries for black gold like you geniuses.

good to hear this. it is like almost every country in africa now has oil. ghana too has and it is been managed by TULLOW.

arinzeejikonye:
Hi guys, azuri peninsula ekoatlantic

what is the height and the number of floors

forgiveness:
Where is the evidence? Because I can't see any.

pls be realistic nairobi has more higher height with more floors than lagos ,abuja and accra. only abidjan with 30 floors can be compared. nairobi still stand out with 200meter of height

forgiveness:
Avoid which facts? You have never presented me facts.
All you have been doing is making fallacious statements but I gave you facts. Everyone here can attest to it.

Highrise is from 12 floors above or 35m.

Don't misinform the public.

Port Harcourt has 40 highrise though 25 are still under construction.

Lagos has more skyscrapers completed than the whole of Kenya.

pls where do you get your standard of measurement？ just wish to know

freshest4live:
What is the tallest building in Abidjan? And how many skyscrapers are in Abidjan? You said only Abidjan compares to Nairobi in terms of skyscrapers.

read more . take notice of the year and the floors.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_in_Abidjan?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C4914070860

TayserMahiri:
The tallest building in Abidjan is 120 M. Even Lagos has taller, probabylt even you guys in Accra, unless there are others they have constructed recently. I checked on Wiki

Say by Nairobi standards, there are no skyscrapers in West Africa.

yes i agree there are more taller pole in lagos than accrawhen it comes to height but not on floors. accra has a buiding that has a capacity of 27 floors. Which is far above any floors in nigeria. Abijan has alot of skyscraper with higher height but not up to nairobi.

forgiveness:
The benchmark for continent or country varies.

For America and Europe it is 150 m minimum height. It has never been 200 m. If you want to know the truth Google it.

For Africa it is 100 m for the minimum height of a skyscraper.

who said so. why should africa have a diffrent standard against america. general standard by wiki put skyscraper to 80meter

TayserMahiri:



The gaps are becoming smaller and smaller

using nairobi standard. i will agree nigeria and ghana has no skyscraper except abidjan

KarmaKill:
I see you're avoiding my posts after I gave you all the facts. You Nigerian guys have a bad belief that you're the top in everything hence you never bother to look at the facts. We once did a list of cities with the highest towers over 20 floors in Africa and Lagos was nowhere. I can bet you Lagos will be lucky to be half of Nairobi in terms of high-rises too. Port Harcourt I doubt if there is a single high-rise in that city. Just like you're shocked with skyscrapers, towers over 100m so will you be with high-rises.

pls you have bombard that guy with enough evidence. It is ok.

To settle the pussle. Accra ,lagos ,abuja and nairobi all has skyscrapers. Wikipedia source.skyscraper is a tall, continuously habitable building. There is no official definition or a precise cutoff height above which a building may clearly be classified as a skyscraper. However, as per usual practice in most cities, the definition is used empirically, depending on the relative impact of the shape of a building to a city's overall skyline. Thus, depending on the average height of the rest of the buildings and/ or structures in a city, even a building of 80 meters height (approximately 262 ft) may be considered a skyscraper provided that it clearly stands out above its surrounding built environment and significantly changes the overall skyline of thatparticular city. The word "skyscraper" originally was a nautical term referring to a tallmast or its main sail on a sailing ship. The term was first applied to buildings in the late 19th century as a result of public amazement at the tall buildings being built in Chicago and New York City. The traditional definition of a skyscraper began with the "first skyscraper", asteel-framed ten storey building. Chicago's now demolished ten storey steel-framed Home Insurance Building (1885) is generally accepted as the "first skyscraper". The word skyscraper often carries a connotation of prideand achievement. The skyscraper, in name and social function, is a modern expression of the age-old symbol of the world center or axis mundi: a pillar that connects earth to heaven and the four compass directions to one another.Source:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyscrap
