Muafrika2:
Interesting. So how is the company doing?

MPSA:


I don't believe your story of lagos ''Lagos will always remain lagos to me'' I don't want to post the pictures of lagos that I know Enjoy the pictures of Cape town

Boyedex:
Quite funny. "The Lagos that you know" like you've ever been there? But it's your choice to believe what you want even when the truth smacks in your face.

GERALD710:

Now how many medals did Nigeria win in the Olympics this year
One Bronze.
You do remember Kenya has been the top African country in the Olympics in like oh well, the past decade?
And it is not just Athletics. We won silver in Javelin this year (and gold last time). The world record for Javelin throw remains with Julius Yego.
Who is the current Rugby 7s champion in Africa?Kenya!!
Now apart from Football, what else is Nigeria good at??
Eeeerm.Non.

MtuMsuper:

Excuse me lady.
I have been following your contribution and entry into this thread. I have a bio of you so far that convinces me you must be one of the Northern Nigerian sisters. I have met many Nigerians, including those from your country's north, but sadly never a sister. That only impoverishes my experience, to great regret.


Away with the pleasantries.


My inquiry to you: please enlighten us on your knowledge of Africa beyond Nigeria.

Muafrika2:
Kenyan clothes are practical. Not just for church and weddings

MPSA:

KwachImani:


Those are just your imaginations, I bet you haven't been to Kenya.
Those attire you see in runways and many more like the print below are part of everyday attire for any Kenyan in any modern setting.
Please don't make generalizations,you don't live in Kenya, notice, I haven't made any generalizations about your :-Xbedsheets!...

MtuMsuper:

Someone from 9ja will say he's not a "real kenyan ", then in the same breath say Tyson Gay or Christine Ohuruogu are real Americans /Britons. Nigerian and hypocrisy /inconsistency. Where is that zuma picture?

Boyedex:
And so is Lagos in Africa.

Boyedex:
[b]Actually from these pictures, Abuja looks like Cape Town. The Bloemfontein you posted looks like Kano. Yes nigga was right. Lagos comes only after Jo'burg on the continent, it's a well publicized fact.

All those small cities you mentioned can never be as influential as Lagos, a city's influence doesn't centre around buildings and tourism alone (which Lagos too as its fair share), you have to talk economy, arts, media, siting of multinationals, financial institutions and headquarters, commerce, fashion and entertainment, airports and seaports, culture and sports etc. If you have been to these two cities; London and Atlanta or even LA, you'd know that the later cities are highly developed with regards to tall buildings and super highways compared to London. London only has 18 buildings taller than 100m compared to 35 in LA. But you know what? They aren't still as influential as London. In America, only New York rivals London. London without much skyscrapers as LA or New York still houses the biggest and the most financial institutions on the globe. It is a world Fashion and Entertainment Capital alongside Paris, the culture and the monarchy have so much influence that transcends the Americas.

Lagos is in an analogous position on the continent. Like in London where the skyscrapers are not concentrated in just one place( Canary Wharf and the main City), Lagos has concentration of highrises in Lagos Island, Victoria Island, Ikeja and now, the developing Eko City. Lagos has a monarchy, one of the most respected in Nigeria. Lagos is the fashion and entertainment capital of the continent with the annual Lagos Fashion and Design Week usually broadcast on the continent and in Europe. Lagos Commerce is just too big.

Media, one of Nigeria's strongest points all have a huge concentration in Lagos. She probably has the highest number of multinationals on the continent only second to Jo'burg. Lagos is art and culture, the yearly December count down, Eyo festivals and modern carnivals come to mind. Lagos is sports with 3 stadia, annual hosting of beach soccer, basketball tournaments, indoor games such as the largest monopoly tournament on the continent etc. Lagos, with two airports, has a third one underway at the Lekki Peninsula.

Abuja is to Nigeria, what Pretoria is to SA. Abuja has a big political influence on the continent alongside Pretoria and Addis Ababa. I dare say in recent years, Abuja has the biggest. The UN has often lined up behind Abuja on major African issues than Pretoria. Abuja and Pretoria are still neck on neck over who represents Africa on the continent. It's not a small plight.

Back to Lagos, she will continue to be more influential than those smaller SA cities. Jo'burg is the only and biggest competitor. Over the coming years, the picture will be clearer. Just keep your fingers crossed[/b]

MPSA:


You are drinking something, we are talking about lagos and Johannesburg, you are busy talking about london, LA, New York, In SA we don't dream about cities like that, we have our own beautiful cities, they are good for you not me
