Shma:skyscrapers are majorly built for functionality, and little modernity, it's only in Kenya, Nairobi to be precise, that's makeu Kenyans seem skyscrapers are something special. Though, it makes a city looks a bit developed, and that's not all development entails. And no, not most developed cities around the world are filled with skyscrapers. If I'm correct, hong-kong has the most skyscrapers In the world, and I don't think it ranks better than London in development.... For example. And hey, cape-town is more developed and beautiful than jobourg, with less skyscrapers... According to different sources, but I can't tamper with ur belief, anyway. 2 Likes |

theenchanter:You've just underscored my sentiments. Then sum it up with your prejudice submission towards Kenyans, as usual. Psychology rule 001. Beat your opponent with something they don't seem to have or do better, then wait for a rebuttal... Some of the feedback will be sickening; like what you just did from your prosaic state of mind. For the umpteenth time, skyscrapers are not the only infrastructure that measures development. I've said this several times... I don't understand why you're this slow? What I said is what you have just said in your long write-up. Johannesburg is the most developed city in Africa, while cape town is the most beautiful. Although, development is ambiguous. Capetown might be the most developed in terms of HDI. London!

Just40: Almost 15m but not 15m - I guess it's 12m, cos you exaggerate a lot of things. Kenya's middle-income population is 23m - the percentage rate is more or less 45% based on 2017 data. https://oxfordbusinessgroup.com/analysis/top-shelf-growing-middle-class-encouraging-consumer-goods-producers |

Balogunodua:Do you have glaucoma? How can a skyscraper equate to development? Even if you're dumb, you can't make such a submission! A skyscraper is just a complex - more expensive building ( ofc superior to any dwarf cheap houses integrated all over Lagos ) |

Balogunodua:Landon is more developed than Newyork, despite New York having more skyscrapers than her. Barcelona is more developed than Johannesburg, despite Joburg having more skyscrapers than her. What I'm saying is, don't compare African cities with European, Asian, or western cities. Compare Africa with Africa. Like, a city in sub-Saharan Africa With no skyscrapers is a sh*thole a zoo and underdeveloped. Lagos is better than any west African city by virtue of it having skyscrapers. It sets a certain unique landmark in town. |

theenchanter: Read to understand... don't rush. There is nowhere in my sentiment where I've equated skyscrapers to development. What I said was that skyscrapers are NOT THE ONLY tool for development measurement but it's also part of development. "Technology & skyscrapers are important in the modern world. Although, that does not entirely mean that skyscrapers are the only tools that define modernization or development as you may put . " If we decompound the emboldened, you'll realize that there are so many yardsticks for measuring development including but not limited to skyscrapers, roads, or apartments as it was said. |

Skyscrappers and apartments first are best use of urban land to avoid urban sprawl and traffic jams like Lagos. Secondly skycrappers are mostly offices - and built by private developers. They built it because there is huge demand for office space - and the land is pretty expensive - and they want to build so many units. Apart from communist regime - like Tanzania - or Abuja planned cities - cities like Nairobi develops organically. Someone comes, study office or hotel or residential demand, and built them. Nobody ask them - it's real estate market and their money. That is effective demand. You will find Laogs has oversupply because there are that NOT many formal jobs being generated to occupy such buildings. And of course running a generator the whole day for lifts to work isnt funny. Of course govs regulate the heights of buildings...and can decide to disallow tall buildings for any reasons. Balogunodua: 2 Likes |

Re: Kenyans Are Far Behind Nigerians In Every Aspect – Fani-Kayode by rvp2018: 8:58pm On May 20, 2022 |
I bet if they allowed it - they would built. The reason skycrappers are not built in developed world is because getting permits is almost impossible. Nigeria has no such excuses. Nobody has wanted to build and gov said nope...you can only build this height. You're not buiding it because there is no demand for office space. samorobo: 1 Like |

GeneralDae:Trams are the best too.... I respect your preference. Kenya is setting up trams in less than 4yrs to come. Maybe it will be the first one in sub-Saharan - I don't know about SA. I believe Morocco and tunis have already achieved that. |

Private sector build skyscrappers. Gov rarely. Gov is suppose to built tram and rails. There are thefore not mutually exclusive. The money for building office blocks is not from gov coffers. GeneralDae: 1 Like |
