rvp2018: Anybody can plan, post renders like you have done for 5yrs, and have nothing to show, except highways.
Now you want to compare Nairobi pavements and footpaths with South Africa - while your country main capital city - has no inner roads.
And you have no excuse - you have as much OIL as DUBAI
Bottomline is Abuja is ahead of anything in Kenya- if you feel Abuja has no inner roads then pls get ur video and screenshot that part for posting else cease this incessant bitter noise. U can’t heckle Abuja -she has nailed the basic like those cities u mentioned above save for Nairobi- a little real estate boom and it’s will compete with the best the world has to offer .
rvp2018: Go back to one of the video you posted and watch where it shows WTO at 0:53; you're just the usual obtuse nigerian
I have done it and I no saw nothing. Perhaps u are mistaking the construction site of wto for untarred roads else post it for everyone clarity. I mean the screenshot
Abuja is about 30 something years-so yeah so the math.it’s a new city with similar urban planning of cities that started then-talk of Dubai,Doha,Beijing,and EKO Atlantic of now.
rvp2018: I have - 2016 is very recent - confirmed by 2 weeks video - confirmed by Google Maps. You city outside the highways is JUBA or Niamey. It lacks inner road infrastructure. It a huge mess
Screenshot the unpaved inner street road from ur 2 weeks video and post- That’s the best way to expose ur foolery. Fool thinks Abuja is Mombasa
rvp2018: Dude, are that obtuse, every city has highways, but show us inner city infrastructure. You do not have any outside the highways - that is why for 5yrs - all you show is the highways.
Instead of splitting hairs why not drop a recent video that shows that Abuja has not inner city roads cost every video(drone view and drive through) and pics I have dropped proves otherwise. U idiot is just building castles in the air
Saddamochieng00: Can you just stop with your silly excuses. All the three locations in the video are less than 15 km from your CBD. For Africa's supposedly "biggest" economy there should be widespread development all upto the satellite towns around Abuja. Don't you think so
U are grasping at straw-Abuja is a new city still in development with phase one nearing completion(now at 80%)- Those satellites Town will serves as a buffer to absorb people that would live around phase 2. And even at that the road is still under construction as with most untarred road leading into town outside the city. The roads looks better than what u get in ruaka town or athi river- us let’s not forget u cherry picked this one out of thousand as I have watched a couple of his video across little towns outside the city and the roads are quite good- you just selected this one out deceptively - and not to forget this are where average people stay not for the rich.
rvp2018: You just do not have inner city infrastructure - starting with basic stuff like roads. Highways - are like the main veins - but your body has gazillion more arteries - and that is what is lacking in Abuja. Your failed city.
This is what Abuja has miner city roads looks like if you don’t want to access the highway that cut almost throughout every street- u have large ,wide roads at the basement of all those highway with footpaths on both side of the roads.and buildings very wide apart due to the width of the roads ..not the narrowness broken down nonsense in Nairobi or Mombasa- try buildings highway across each street in ur zoo city and watch it look sexy- that 21 century style of urban planning to ease traffic- same with Dubai,Doha,Beijing and the likes- Dint expect to see such in London or New York,those one developed when their style of urban planning was still a trend but now it’s outdated.
Again taje ur time to-watch this video- dude took his time to drive along the inner roads not the big highway which is optional.
Saddamochieng00: It's beyond shocking that this is the capital city of Africa's "biggest" economy. They've already done enough damage to Africa's name with their scamming , prostitution, bleaching (highest form of self hate for a black man).....No lie but Naija is the biggest disgrace to Africa.
Still no where in Kenya can lift a finger to Nigeria’s seat of power.must be painful.Abuja compared to anything in Kenya is a joke. This is just a facts. Abuja roads alone will cover that of Nairobi and Mombasa put together.Facts
Abuja cbd is make of highway.that’s the 21st century style of urban planning -deal with that- same way every street in EKO Atlantic or Dubai has massive highway-this is to ease traffic- Nairobi and Mombasa started urbanization some five centuries back so I don’t expect this style of urban planning to u villagers.
U watched that video in 3 seconds.idiot Abuja cbd comprises of inner road and flyover,highways. I have posted gazillion of videos to reveal that but u are just splitting hairs since ur Mombasa crappy slum can’t compete-he k Abuja and Mombasa in the same sentence is an insult to Africa.
rvp2018: You just do not have inner city infrastructure - starting with basic stuff like roads. Highways - are like the main veins - but your body has gazillion more arteries - and that is what is lacking in Abuja. Your failed city.
Can I see ur evidence to this spurious claim-surely you must be talking of some Abuja somewhere else or maybe u are just describing Mombasa otherwise the Abuja I know has nailed or the basics. U think Kenya will get this level this century-a couple more real estate boom and Abuja will he up there competing with Cape Town. Abuja is not called a planned city for nothing- always remember that and know ur place..
rvp2018: When was WTO towers constructed in Abuja. The video I showed you was 2016. And 2 weeks later nothing has changed right in your CBD. All the videos you can show is along the highway - now get us drone pictures that is not curated (not selected) - that move in large swatches of Abuja.
Abuja is more than half slums - the other half has no paved inner roads right into CBD.
And in kenya you're complaining about pavements, walk paths and footpaths? And comparing it to South Africa and developed world standards.
That is big difference btw Abuja - with 2/3 of looking like JUBA - zero inner roads - slums - houses built anyhow.

Here is what I am saying.watch this video carefully and notice how large roads cut across each streets and connect to big major highway.

Yeah that cos Abuja cbd is built to have both highway,normal roads and footpath. Literally every street in Abuja cbd has an highway or is connected to a highway. That is what 21st century business district look like in newly developed cities- it’s literally the same with EKO Atlantic,brassilla and the likes. I never expect a Kenyan to know this.
Shaytun: In the early 2010s, Kenya’s fledgling tech ecosystem was used as a shorthand for a wider “Africa Rising” narrative. It was promptly dubbed “Silicon Savannah” as startups sprouted and tech talent flocked to Nairobi.
But by 2016, there were mutterings in local circles about how the funding seemed to be disproportionately favoring North American and European founders who were launching companies in the country. Things came to a head in 2017, when a Village Capital report titled “Breaking the Pattern” appeared to confirm what many local founders and journalists had been saying: In East Africa, 90% of disclosed startup investments in 2015 and 2016 went to companies with one or more European or North American founders.
90%!! That’s fucccking crazy...Kenya is such a joke of country always feeding false narrative to the world. Their tech ecosystem is probably below that of Angola.
Saddamochieng00: This is the sh*t you're talking about and you dare talk on dusty roads in Nairobi. No wonder you keep on posting the same stretch of road.
Also why do majority of the houses look unoccupied?
U are an idiot -u are desperately grasping at straw- now we are back to the same ol’ Potemkin village that only e it’s in ur imagination- those roads are outside the city and are under construction-make use of ur eyes.
Lol idiot I keep splitting hairs-lol so now it’s a carefully curated drone shot- both videos that I dropped covered Abuja even outside her cbd u idiot- u are busy showing me Abuja-jos highway. Every damn inch,I repeat of Abuja cbd and most of her eniviron is tarmac- this is just a fact ur bitterness can never,ever change. Abuja is not a joke Mombasa.fact
Saddamochieng00: How are we comparing with a city that has thickets surrounding the Central Bank Building. In as much as we call Accra a village atleast they try making it decent. Abuja is a lost cause.
U mean Mombasa -just nuke this rubbish and start all over- u can’t redeem this city again- the solution is to nuke it to the grounds.
rvp2018: They will show you the Abuja-Airport expressways for 10yrs if they have to; But get out of two or three highways; and the golden mosque; it city where you find skyscraper in the middle of dirt roads.
Outside the Potemkin village at the middle of the city - is swatches of slums by the local community and immigrants who cannot find decent housing.
U must really be mistaken Abuja for ther coastal slum u call Mombasa-a place that can only boast of port highway and dongo-Kongo highway nonsense. Outside this most Mombasa residents don’t even know what a tarmac road looks like-it’s just a crappy mess slum town that inspires no one.
Saddamochieng00: Your YouTubers can't cover the rest of the city cause they know it looks like that. African traveller has covered all the outskirts town and they're miles ahead of what you have in your City Centre, talk less of the outskirts (let's not go there )
Note. This are satellites towns while what I showed in the previous post was less than 10 Kms from your CBD.
Just shut it-Go on YouTube and subscribe to BIGWILZ channel-he has great content in Abuja.There is almost nothing or nowhere he hasn’t shot or covered in Abuja-be it city or outskirts. Have fun on his channel.
Lol rvp I see u roaming down there in fear and shock(u can’t believe ur eyes) what u gat to say- how u will Abuja is like ur zoo- I wasn’t joking when I said Abuja is miles away vc and Mombasa is crap. I mean u have seen it now
rvp2018: Abuja outside the main higways look more like Niamey, Bangui and Juba. The inner roads right to the CBD are absent; You'll find a skscryapper in the middle of what looks like Athi River or Ruai or Kitengela.
Who hell allowed all those buildings to go up without a tarmac road?
Glad u will chew on ur words after watching those videos - u idiot think Abuja is Kenya- I wasn’t joking around when I said 85-90% of Abuja roads are tarred- very hard to see a damaged road talk more of an untarred road- that’s what a prudent working city council can get u
Shma2020: Shut the f*ck up! Abuja is absolutely nothing. Now you want rvp to post pictorial evidence yet you're busy playing around with videos of Mombasa old town? Are you okay my guy?
Abuja for ur view- A single video says more tgan a thousand words
Lol u are a stupid fraud.like I said earlier as I am reiterating anions has never had issues with tarmac road-This is not Kenya or any of ur slumpolis- Now listen to me boy,when next you want to be deceptive Atleast trying being pragmatic and smart with it. The video u posted is from 4 years back when a major highway was being built coupled with harmattan dust that covered most of the view seeing that Abuja is in the northern part of the country.
If you really want to be see Abuja aerial view in 2021 why not try out this videos-They are even very educative- Don’t bother up wont see what u are looking for. That crappiness,i tarred road,chaos and mess won’t be seen .This aint Mombasa or any of Kenya slumpolis.
As for shma2020 skip the video to 6.28 to see the beautiful lake u were vc stupidly criticizing- I repeat Abuja is not on your slumpolis level...
rvp2018: You own business district doesn't have paved inner roads beyond those two highways. For kenya - it struggling at paving footpaths and walkways - but Abuja, Lagos and Accra - you inner roads are unpaved.
U Are sick. Post ur pictorial evidence not noise.
Everywhere in Abuja cbd is super tarmac like every single inch- this is just a fact.
