It should no longer be of any secret, that two of Nigeria's tallest developments are currently ongoing in in the Federal Capital Territory, namely: Millennium Towers & WTC Abuja. This diagram should shed some light on just where the two imposing and ongoing developments in Abuja stack up, both in Nigeria and in Africa.

There are a few particularities however to clear up, as mentioned in a previous blog post. The first area of contention, is whether the Necom House (Nitel Building), should be measured to its antenna (Which is not an architectural feature, but telecoms infrastructure/light house). CTBUH measures such non architectural features in only 1 of the 3 categories, that it uses to measure tall buildings. The second area of contention is whether the Millennium Tower, should even be classed as a building. As mentioned in the previous blog entry, with less than 50% of its structural envelope habitable; it cannot be classed as such
