NairobiWalker:That picture of Ibadan looks better than Majengo honestly speaking. If you look closely at that building, you can see that it has a relatively sound structural foundation. That house is two storey tall meaning that whoever built it how many decades ago was financially well of relatively speaking. In Ibadan, houses that are very old are built and rented out by wealthy traders or farmers who are the landowners. Many of the old houses come into disrepair and mismanagement due to decades of neglect, the original landlord dying, and the decline in agriculture following oil. Even with the very poor condition that house is in, I can closely analyze the structural/architectural components. Architectural style is likely of 18th-20th century Nigerian modern colonial. That house in that particular picture is connected to the electric grid. It has a balcony in the base and top levels. The front of the house is supported by four concrete columns. The balcony is closed off by an intricately designed closure. The windows are wooden like many in Ibadan although there are many old houses with glass windows lined with wooden frames. The windows of the house has what looks like a carved top wooden frame or awning. The roof is tin roof which in the day carried a prestige as a sign of wealth. The roofing sheets have become corrugated over the years. Even the corrugated roofing sheets are placed in a more organized manner than that of Majengo. Also, Majengo is more crowded when compared Ibadan. Slums often result because poor people aren't able to compete in the property markets of a city so people would rather build makeshift houses on very small pieces of land. When you say Narobi is 6% slum, you also have to consider that the same source says 60% of the population live in that 6%. Why is this? The answer is land ownership. Rich/Wealthier people can afford to own more land, dirt poor people can't afford land so they are pushed to a very extreme limit. Since you compared the whole of Ibadan as slum to Majengo slum, I'll take you up on that. the population density figures for Majengo is a whopping 55,323 per square km which is no where near the population density of Ibadan at just around 985 per square km. I also heard of the high rate of HIV and prostitution in Majengo. See, if I was a dirt poor slum dweller, I won't start off by buying a piece of land and then building a two storey tall house with columns and balcony and even have the time to incorporate artistic features into my house. If I were a dirt poor slum dweller, I would focus on obtaining a very small piece of "illegal" land to set up an improvised shelter made from recycled materials that would simply protect me from the elements. Majengo is a shantytown within a city, Ibadan is a city with a lot of degraded infrastructure. Both have their problems, but their problems are on different scales. |

genieluv:His combative nature has blinded him .Kibera is built on rubbish.They never accept those slums are an anomaly.But on the other hand,something has to be done about the old sections of Ibadan. |

mtis:It's mostly because of athletics rivalry and some rumors I heard about you guys hate us because some Ethiopians didn't consider themselves black. Now I realized you guys don't have that much negative attitude towards us like I imagined. |

genieluv: Lol, Kenyans are addicted to group selfies. How are you supposed to see their group selfies when you're in Nigeria? Add Kenyans on Facebook and follow them on Instagram and you'll see how much they love group selfies. |

genieluv: Google maps proves that. Most of the cities in Ogun, Oyo and areas around Lagos are slums. .....and please, stop being ridiculous. Makoko is the only slum in Nigeria? Lol, even your beloved Abuja has slums like the one below.

genieluv: Your first time? Sometimes I just respond assuming you are honest. Kenyans probably do more group selfies than Nigerians percentage wise. We are party animals ![]() https://www.nairaland.com/3327789/kenya-ahead-nigeria-all-aspect/800 and follow the next few pages. We have many such events here, some happening deep in the wild. |

Hati13: Actually wenedem the negative sentiments about Ethiopia used to stem from the fact that most people associated Ethiopia's isolation as a sign you guys were disassociating from black Africa. Most Kenyans back in the days didnt know Ethiopian authorities were so hard on freedoms. The attitudes have changed over the last decade because Kenyans understand the reality of the struggles of the everyday Ethiopians. |
