Government plans to forge ahead developing R500 billion mega smart cities including a new university over the next 10 years.
President Cyril Ramaphosa revealed in his state of the nation address on Thursday on 13 February that a new smart-city is taking shape in Lanseria, Gauteng.

The process is a joint project between the Investment and Infrastructure Office in the Presidency and the Gauteng and North West provincial governments.
The cities of Johannesburg, Tshwane, and Madibeng and private partners will also help to make the smart city a reality.
According to a new report published by Gauteng Provincial Government, construction will be implemented along five development corridors that have distinct industries and different comparative advantages. The corridors split into five are:

What is the purpose of the Nigerian Air Force, why can’t they destroy Bokoharam.

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
Do not listen to them the problem of Nigeria is they are illiterate. Nigeria will tell you in Nigeria can do nothing but we have to support ourselves. Nigerians will tell you this person will do nothing for us but we have to vote for him.. Nigerians will tell you in Nigeria cannot develop the country next day they are going to vote for in Nigeria. In Nigeria will run to another African country knowing that Nigeria could do nothing for him when he gets there he wants to vote for in Nigeria. Like in the first page of this thread where the guy complaining in the YouTube video here and went to Ghana because Nigerian can do nothing for him now he wants Nigerian government to come and helping in Ghana if that illiteracy when the government could not help you in your own country. Illiteracy is the biggest problem with Nigeria. Somebody which comes to them openly I will do nothing for you but we have to support ourselves they will go and vote for the person. A country where their community head abroad is telling Nigerians it does not matter if you're suffering of poverty let us all suffer but we need to support ourselves the Nigerian go and vote for him. The fact of the matter is the people in Nigeria like to suffer. All the Industries all the company Nigerian people have changed out of the country and why now they are sending their children to does African countries where the industry's have gone to do prostitution. Nigerians will only follow somebody which is making them suffer even in developed countries like UK American Canada somebody which is telling them is better we all suffer of poverty together voting for a Nigerian Have you seen people which are so stupid in your life.

Illiterate illiterate illiterate illiterate we Nigerian

The jealousy is quite simple.
Nigerians works harder than any other African Nationals in any country they found themselves.
Nigeria has the highest number of educated people in Africa.
Nigerians are great achievers in all spheres of human endavours, both home and abroad.
Diasporan Nigerians remit back close to 27 billion USD annually,that is more than half of South African foreign reserves.
Nigeria doesn't need to be in BRICS, our young and energetic people sets the rule in Africa and some other developed economies. We have the worst set of political leaders in the whole world and still do better for ourselves, imagine when we take back our country from those corrupt parasites.
When you talk about drugs and fraud, there are more Indians, Pakistanis, Mexicans, South East Asians that are committing these crimes than Nigerians, they are just more organized and operate like close knitted cartels and they are all over South Africa.Nigerians are just picking drug crumbs in South Africa.

The problem of Nigerians is that they are too coward.
They have been complaining about leaders for many years, why you don’t remove them like other countries.

IronGalaxy:
German settlers settled in South West Africa, in what is now known as Namibia. If you gonna engage me, at least know what you're talking about

Good point

What is causing Nigerians to run away from Nigeria?

Why Nigerians are not staying at Nigeria and fix Nigeria?

Princedapace:
Yes but they are not rushing to Nigeria as we do to theirs. As we speak, Nigerians are all over the world, ready to do shit to make money. When ur citizens work as cleaners in SA, work as Nannies in SA, and u rarely will find an SA citizen doing same type of work here in Nigeria. How do u think they wont bash us?

Bro, make we accept our reality.

True

Easternmind:
This south Africans should know that they'll still need support from other Africans at some point in their lives,they think they know what they doing...smh

The big problem of Nigerians is that they deny the fact that Nigeria is a failed state.
Until the day that Nigerians accept that Nigeria is a collapsed state, Nigeria problems will not go away.

Problemkid1:

So I no see wetin these South Africans wan come use ShopRites raina our wayo for this forum ooh. Dem Gbaga because Dem no Sabi anything. Make them come make we teach them how to do business.

Is fine, Shoprite is leaving Nigeria but Sanlam is entering Nigeria.

mtisTheQubit:
Africa the dark continent...north Africans don't wanna be called Africans. .horners-somali an clan dont want be called Africans. ..south Africans coz of development in their country don't feel african so you can't blame the guy

Stop lies, South African are proud Africans.
SAns they believe that egypt, morocco, somalians are not Africans.
Most Nigerians are also not proud Africans because they are always wearing Asian dress instead of wearing traditional African attire like zulus.

theenchanter:
i wouldn't call him a liar but an ignoramus. Most saffers believe every good thing in africa can only be found in sa, if u hadn't said this, i'm certain austine and many more saffers would also think spar is SAn.

Spar is 100% South African

Roan77:
Liar.

Spar is a Dutch multinational franchise that manages independently owned and operated food retail stores. It was founded in the Netherlands in 1932.

Stop lies, Spar is South African.

JaceBlaze:
Spar is another South African chain store.

True

mzansiboy:
Shoprite is the biggest retail store in Africa, so when it wants to leave the biggest market in Africa there must be a big problem with Nigeria and the FG of Nigeria. I would also leave if the enviroment is not good to continue.

True

TayserMahrii:
More Carrefour chains at Thika Road Mall, The Village Market , and the Junction Mall respectively.

I think you were supposed to celebrate when African business are doing well in your country, in south africa we will never celebrate a French business doing well in our country.
In SA we celebrate business like Dangote cement Because they are African business.

forgiveness:
Ask yourself why SPAR is not leaving Nigeria then you will find out ShopRite don't know how to do business.

Compete with Kenya?

When Kenya can't compete with just Lagos state not to talk about a region.

My friend we must always think about economy.
Some people are going to loose jobs because shoprite is leaving.
There are going to be added to high number of unemployed people.

Do you think buying on informal market will grow the economy of Nigeria, of course not,

forgiveness:
ShopRite is just a normal supermarket here. Nothing more.

It's just that they can't compete. That's all.

According to Shoprite ceo, shoprite is leaving Nigeria because it is not profiting well.
The reason is not profiting is because Nigerians prefer informal market such as buying on the street.
Truworth, Mr price and woolworth stated this reasons when they leave Nigeria.

The problem of Nigeria is that while other African countries are formalizing their business, it seems like Nigeria is doing nothing.

If Nigeria is not formalizing businesses so that it Could get more tax and build infrastructure , how will it compete with Kenya

LadyExcellency:
No one is denying its existence.

Just that it doesn't warrant national attention. 900 death in 6 month across Nigeria, translating to one death per LGA.

Good response
