rvp20182: Nairobi was named 11th eco friendly city in the entire globe...jesus..Cape town was no 45.Nairobi is one world greatest cities.just accept and move on.calabar or Nigeria have one or two half decent estate in sea of integrated slumpolis .Nairobi by 2030 will have overtaken joburg as the premier city of Africa ..if not earlier. Your slumpolis should try basic zoning and planning...basic..
U must be describing Kenya. Tell me atleast one county or own or village in Kenya that doesn't have atleast 15-20 slum for a start. Just one .pls tell me.
68816419: Spintex district in accra looks far more Developed than this crappy area called Westland, most roads in Westland are tiny, Dusty, ugly, with no road markings, no street and traffic lights
Also add no side walk, drainage system, narrow roads, poorly planned
Wuoche: You are talking too much with nothing to show for it. This is Oweri 2021.
Lmao so I can't see a pace like that in nairobi.is that what u are telling me. I can see Owerri look so good that U had to derail it. Honestly I even I at some point though that was a drive through some European small city. I mean the well decorated trees,lawn,roads, buildings.owerri just need to fix her roads and she will be competing with nairobi. That world bank U saw there was free money the govt of Owerri got to fix roads and drainage problem throughout the city.
rvp20182: Why are you embittered and frustrated. Why would you go for street view when you have drone views? You have a problem with reality or what? Let me tell in Kenya - street view - will not show you much - because we invest in trees, hedges and greenery. Unless you want to see street view of the business districts. Otherwise estates in kenya are lined with too much trees and high school - you'll not see much.
Lmao U are funny oooo. U don't have a better neighbourhood than Canada,US,UK,SA but yet drive to their neighbourhood is breathtaking and exotic. U have no point my friends.ur neighbourhoods are crappy and has nothing to show for it.
rvp20182: Indeed Nairobi is water deficient because Nairobi and it's metro has grown so fast. Nairobi north collector is nearing completion. Saisuma dam is near completion.
Here is Nairobi North Water Collector project - Phase 1 - will ADD 140M litres per day to NAIROBI
Nairobi requires 825K cubic meters per day - and Nairobi right now get supplied with 500K cubic meters - and north collector (will take it 640K cubic meters per day) and others will fill the gap.
Today is a very exciting day as we take the first Nairobi - Konza Technopolis train, this will further enhance transportation options and open up the Technopolis and the buffer zone area for further investments
U should be ashamed of this truck. Get a ight rail or at best a high speed train. This is the 21st century not the primitive 18th century. Thanks in advance
Shma2020: What YOU -are doing ryna, Is formulating tantrums from your an*us. You're speaking what is not there.
Just by pics, you'll know Nairobi has more-decent infrastructure than your biggest slumbolish city. Quality index is very important and that's why you'll see WB using road quality index to measure infrastructure dev on roads. Generators can't be a yardstick for gauging development, Nairobi uses generators as second last option to access electricity.
Abuja is a jungle with few buildings, it can't stand Mombasa .
All of this is noise bro. I hope U got my point in the end. Ur cities and infastructures has a long way to go and that's just a bitter fact.
Shma2020: I can as well look into your eyes, raise my hands high up, beat my chest so badly that you can hear the bang of audacity in it and tell you without fumbling and shacking like you're doing here that Lagos is a slum~well planned slum intergrated city with largest open defecation on dilapidated roads and streets in the world ... Spiced up With rusty iron roofs and shanties stretched all the way from makoko to the main CBD...
20th century infrastructure is what your zooland nation can brag about .. A slum ridden country from left CBD center to the right side of makoko and dead project in Eko. ... All through to ibadan as you stretch to Port Harcourt.. Kano.. Etc
All this noise better be U gotten point. Ur slum of a city doesn't have half the infastructure LAGOS or Abuja have. I say that without bluffing but with deep seriousness.just focus on that stretch of road for now whilst we watch Kenya the baby steps.
Wuoche: It seems you are on drugs. I have never heard of any project being done by Singaporean in Kenya. You can provide evidence if in any case you have it. Another thing is that you seem to be too obsessed with Kenya to an extent of knowing everything that even some of us don't know . Keep up with the obsession please.
Are U playing dumb or what. There was supposed to be a clustered building of about 8 all 32 flrs and above sponsored by Singaporean investors.but they reduced the height to I think 5 flrs now
Shma2020: If you're saying SA has 2200 skyscrapers then you don't have a brain or you're basically a liar.
And please, I didn't say we match with SA.. You always portray your inside out brain everytime you try to comprehend and air your opinion. try take your time, read, fathom and absorb what has been laid against you before acting slow frustrated.
Enjoy your meme
SAhs over 2000 malls. That's a fact on periodt. Google it and see for urself. They are not ranked the 8th largest in the world for nothing.
So Nairobi should only be bulding 30-70fls towers and not 20 ?
Wow! I never knew you're in love with Nairobi this much
Yes according to what U guys keep singing tallest this,tallest that. We were expecting something like 80flrs heck even 100 flrs but nah that ain't the case.pinnacle fell like konza dead hope and ugatuzi.
Austine1213: Skyscrapers SA has outgrown skyscrapers Mall 2200>150 is no match Infrastructure SA is far ahead no comparison Electricity no match, roads no match
SA beaches range from Atlantic cold to Indian Ocean warm, from white sand beaches to desert beaches by the was we got longest coastline in africa after somalia(no match)
Kenya is one city nation
Now that's how U show a bigger his place nicely done
Shma2020: The person you're licking ar*s is not enjoying the H-quality overrated amenities in SA due to ≠ in nature , he's just living a desperate life like you and other poor Nigerians there.
But to be fair with you, On a grand scheme of things , a normal black (average nigerian) is doing better than a zulu. although, the zoolu can access the world class amenities at least once in a blue moon ~that is if he vacates from his village once in a while for housemaid or gardener jobs ... This will mean, he/she will have to book a cheap house in either Khayelitsha where affordable houses for a normal Austine1213 can be found. .....
But when we go with SA as a country.. SA is no one's mate in Africa.. South Africa is competing with highly developed countries in abroad... When you hear people saying we overhype small retails and so, don't be shocked bruh, it's normal ... A SAn has that right to sh*t on our face.
If you look at stats in most indices, we rank just next to SA in most of them.
Talk of retail sectors:. Skyscrapers Malls Infrastructure (in the context of Nairaland): Talk of electricity, road quality, general buldings infrastructure... etc
Nature/beauty. (city greenery)
City aesthetic
Nice sandy beaches
Etc........
That shows we're the only country who are worth contenters with SA in Nairaland .. .
I almost died laughing reading this texts of noise.
Talking of infastructure on the context of nairaland I can confidently look U in the eyes beat my chest and tel urhst Kenya is behind. Lmao how many km of roads do U build a year again lmao how world class hospital do U even have under construction,what of world class mega airports,trains, or new world class cities,or mass affordable housing,heck and even mall. Which of Ur city can compete with Lagos or abuja.or are mad or just bluffing. Talking of city aesthetics U would give U places in Lagos a d Abuja U will never see in Kenya even after scouring the internet. We were not ranked alongside SA as top Africa infastructural construction giants for nothing.
U can only heckle us in empty malls spaces for now .oh and of course kibera, otherwise nothing else.
Btw did U know pinnacle towers is dead like dodo as earlier predicted here
Appisko: Ghanaian startup mPharma is buying Kenya’s second-largest pharmacy chain
MPharma, the six-year old Ghanaian startup that manages prescription drug inventory for pharmacies and their suppliers, is buying Kenya’s second-largest pharmacy chain, Haltons, in an unprecedented deal for the African startup ecosystem.
The transaction, which sees mPharma enter the East Africa regional market for the first time, means the young company will take control of the 20 Haltons stores spilt between Nairobi and Mombasa. The deal, which is still subject to regulatory approval, comes as mPharma works on completing a $12 million Series B funding round led by 4DX Ventures, an Accra/San Francisco venture capital firm, and Nairobi-based Novastar Ventures.
Lmao everything in Kenya is been bought by west Africans this days there is gonna be a trouble oooo
rvp2018: Which SA company is leading shareholder there? South Africa companies have come but few have succeeded. Those in insurance and banking are the exception - the rest don't last.
Oga take Ur time to conduct research rather than disgracing urself. Thanks in advance.
68816419: Guyz, check out The largest urea fertilizer plant in the world now been completed and tested in Nigeria for operations this quarter. The $2bn Dangote Fertilizer Plant will cut our fertilizer imports of $500m,and generate $400m annual foreign exchange, in export to Africa countries. NIGERIA WINS.
Enjoy the aesthetic beauty five of this has been successfully built by Buhari in 5 different state and yet some idiot from Kisumu dare lecture us about infastructure and try downplay Buhari's achievement. Infastructure everywhere.alveit this one is still in construction.
Wuoche: Continue celebrating the collapse of one building . This is TDB Bank in Kilimani.
Lmao and U think we are not putting up buildings nice 20flrs tho oops I forgot.we were to be expecting 60 flrss d above but like every other thing in Kenya that goes south we are enjoying an array of 20 flrs just is the reduced river bank Tower which is now 5 from Lmao pls just keep it modern either short or tall we are tired of viewing Ur poorly constructed slumscrapers E ery now and then I hope nairobi starts learning
