We no even dare go to neighbourhoods like Karen, Runda, Muthaiga etc where rents are $5000 and above. Ask any other Nigerian living in Nairobi going by the present exchange rate which between Lagos and Nairobi where the rent in a good neighborhood is lesser.

If you are paying N800,000 annually for a 3 bedroom flat at Magodo Estate that is equal to 170,000 Kenyan shillings going by today's exchange rate between the Naira and Shillings. That 170,000 Kenyan shillings will cover only 4 months rent of similar neighborhood in Nairobi!

First of, how did you get the perfect equivalent of Magodo in Nairobi to arrive at this? It will be hard to judge an equivalent knowing that values of an apartment with exact same facilities vary from location to location. That brings me to why you should compare the extremes in both situations, that is, the best of Nairobi and the best of Lagos. And please, you can get an apartment of $3000 in Muthaiga, not 5k as the least cost that you quoted. Like I said earlier, apartments in Eko Atlantic cost 10000 monthly. They were fully bought before it's completion. That makes a big business statement. These things are not rocket science.

But that does not stop it from having the biggest slum in the world meanwhile the beautiful places are dominated by the whites,why the real South Africans are living in khayelisha

I don't understand when you talk about the real south african, if you can check the list of south africa Presidents, No one is black, since from the beginning of south africa, south africa is totally different compare to the rest of the continent. I love my people

Born and raised in Lagos, work and live in Nairobi....Forget the pictures being posted l know the realities of both cities!

Good for you. I too have dealers of real estate in a few African cities, Nairobi inclusive. And of course, I have personal dealings in Lagos real estate too. So they aren't hard to figure.

I love my country, Go SA

Lool!!! More like he liberated you from the whites or "colonial stock" as someone stated.

If you can't beat them, join them --- that's why y'all are sooo coloured. He suffered for something, what was it

Your rich "white" people on forbes always have a clause.... Their history, origin forever referring to colonialism (Jewish family, German origin)

He's NOT our liberator, slow your role and stop typing "butthurt".

''Butthurt'' is your miserable life that you live each and every day without electricity, Your useless paradise isn't working for you.

I can match neighborhoods between Nairobi and Lagos, l know some neighbourhoods in Nairobi, l can match the quality of residency with that of ilupeju, Lagos.

Neighborhoods you can match with Lavington, kilimani, Kileleshwa etc. Nairobi had its own share of neighbourhoods in the mould of Bariga. Ijora badiya, Ajegunle etc in good measure!

Generations will come and go and the fact will still remain. No matter how it's being rephrased, modified, amended, revamped, revised, altered...

Eskom has recorded a series of black out in South Africa,you Zulu guy go and do your research very well,yes I agree SA has more electricity than Nigeria,but the demand in Nigeria is very high compare to SA,meanwhile no city in SA haven't experienced blackout for a decade.


Bonny city in Nigeria haven't experience power cut for the past decades

I get your point. Quality is not quantifiable. It's easier to imagine the equivalent from both cities just thinking about the quality of neighborhoods, lawns, slums, people etc. A tad rowdy place in London could still cost more than a reserved place in Lagos. And that's my point. In terms of value equivalent, all you would have mostly succeeded in doing are mismatches. So why don't the bests go horn for horn?

South Africa or any otheer country is just a political boundary, I think Bantu is the largest ethnicity in Africa. The rest are Niger,

Individual Bantu groups today often include millions of people. Among these are the Luba of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, with over 13.5 million people ; the Zulu of South Africa, with over 10 million people the Sukuma of Tanzania which are about eight million people , Kikuyu of Kenya, with over six million people . Although only around five million individuals speak the Arabic-influenced Swahili language as their mother tongue,[7] it is used as a lingua franca by over 140 million people throughout Southeast Africa.[8] Swahili also serves as one of the official languages of the African Union.

You built it together Hahahahahahahaha,what baffles me is when going to places like khayelisha,road Kennedy ,jeo slavo,cape flat and some other horrendous area you won't see any white,but going to beautiful part the white are the major sight,if I am biased what about CNN
