I know the value of direct foreign investment and I also know the importance of building mega companies controlled and owned by Nigerians.

Both compliments each other.

You made look as If Nairobi has more multinational companies than Lagos but I am letting you know you are wrong.


We have thousands of Multinational companies headquarters in Lagos both locally and internationally.


How is Kenya the biggest investors in Africa by ventures? Explain yourself.

What is going to be the height of the tallest building in Nairobi by 2020? Is it going to be more than the one Abuja is building? 308 meters.

The skyscrapers are built on a reclaimed sea and beside the sea and a lake. Tell me who would not love to live there?


What are the names of those Asian countries?

The simple truth is Lagos has but Nairobi don't have.

Nairobi has more multinational than Lagos by far, show me the multinationals in Lagos and I wills show you in Nairobi

Kenya is the biggest in vestor in Africa by venture, check below link.

Kenya has risen to become world largest black tea exporter. Tea is now kenya biggest forex earner and main export by value & volume. The amazing thing is that most of the tea is grown by small holder farmers -about 70%. Can Nigeria hack this kind of work - seem all they're used to is waiting for oil dollars!
Tea is mainly grown in Kericho - with really cold temperature and high rainfall.

I know Kenya generates huge revenues from tea. Tea plantation is just one of the steps to diversify Nigeria's economy. It is a very recent development.

On skyscrapper -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_buildings_in_Africa. It rather obvious that Nairobi beat Lagos hands down and africa tallest building 45 & 66(300M) floors Hass tower will be Africa tallest building when completed. The tower 1 (45 floors) will be Nairobi third Hilton hotel. Tower 2 (66 flours) will be mixed use. Abuja one seem like 100m 24flour building?

Nairobi is competing with Joburg & Cairo -Not Lagos.




As at 2000 Ibadan has more skyscrapers than Kenya. As at 2015 Lagos has more skyscrapers than Nairobi.

The two tallest building in Nairobi that is taller than Lagos's where built in 2015 and 2016 with the height of 200 meters and 163 meters while Lagos tallest building was built in 1979 with the height of 160 meters grin

You very funny! You are showing me renders and you call them tallest building in Africa. grin


Nairobi is building, so is Abuja but Abuja own tall pass. grin

You've got jokes. Ibandan and Lagos can only beat kenya in SLUMSCRAPPERS not skyscrappers. Lagos seem to have build that skyscrapper in 70s and that marked basically the end of it.

Nairobi can only compete with Joburg and Cario. Not Lagos. Leave alone the slum city of Ibandan. In skyscrappers, infrastructure, buildings and general livability.

AfroCircus:

You talking population wise or development wise, coz if it's the former, I do agree. But development wise, I harbor very strong doubts. Not that Port Harcourt, Enugu or Kano aren't developed, it's just that they ain't as much as the cities you've compared them with.

Thing is when you hear of a 2-3m populated city in Nigeria, you expect to see a Durban like or Nairobi like city in terms of roads, skyline, urban planning, sophistication level etc. But save for Abuja, others are very fond of falling worryingly short of your expectations.


I am talking about both. Abuja, Lagos and Port Harcourt(to some extent) can be compared with Nairobi in terms of infrastructures and development.

These cities are developed and financial buoyant enough.

They are one of foreigners choice destinations for investments.

Calabar was formerly the capital of Nigeria, Ibadan was the capital of Western region. At it height, it was the same with Nairobi in terms of infrastructures and development, Enugu was the capital of Eastern region and Kano is the financial Headquarters of the Northern region

Nigeria has only 3 cities population exceeding 2 million, Lagos, Kano and Ibadan.


Kano - 3 million, Ibadan 2.5 million, Lagos 9 m, Port Harcourt - 1.5m, Calabar 600,000 thousand, Enugu - 670,000 thousand, Abuja - 1.2m etc

As you can see, you are wrong.

Top five Major cities in Nigeria can beat Nairobi when it comes to population. But when it comes to infrastructure,beauty and ambience Nairobi has no equal in Nija.. In the most leavable Cities in Africa Nairobi has been equated to major S.A cities in a kinder way..
http://www.africa.com/blog/the_top_10_most_liveable_cities_in_africa/

Too sad there wasn't even one Nija City on the list.

Mombasa BTW receives more tourist than the whole of Nigeria combined.. Calabar and Enugu cannot even reach a quarter the status of Mombasa.

Its a pity to even put Portharcourt in the same league with Nairobi when Lagos alone cannot fit in.

One thing I respect Nigeria for is how a city with 21m ppl can exist with such a limited infrastructure...

Abuja, Lagos and Port Harcourt(to some extent) are equal if not better than Nairobi.

Liability is first determined by security and you know challenges we are facing.

You don't know the population of Nigerian cities else you would not have said that.


Ibadan, Enugu, Calabar and Kano are on the same Level with Mombasa if not better.

Well, development of skyscraper ceased in Ibadan after the military took the government and declared unitary system of government.

Before then the first skyscraper in sub Sahara Africa was built in Ibadan.
