Muafrika2:

Run along,

Go fix your make-up. I don't know how Nigerian men manage it with the boiling temperatures

But Nairobi is the only cold part of Kenya. There are cold cities/places in Nigeria too e.g Jos, Port harcourt, Mambilla Plateau. Jos (my hometown especially) can go as low as 5°c. It is a mountaineous city.

arinzeejikonye:
Abuja is undoubtably one of the best planned cities on the african continent

It actually is. It is the largest African city which was planned entirely from the scratch.
23 years ago Abuja was a complete virgin land.

and do you know how much a royal Kente cost?

This hat as well as the full attires are worn by tens of millions of Nigerians on a daily basis.
How many Ghanians wear the royal Kente daily?

Not really.
I've heard of the Harmattan in Nigeria. I think I've even seen it in movies

The coldest parts in Kenya include-

Nyahururu
Limuru
Rift valley highlands, like Nandi Hills, Iten etc

Nairobi is only cold seasonally, but not as cold as the above.

arinzeejikonye:


Nairobi is awesome,but lagos is ahead in expansion honestly speaking,every part of lagos today is a construction site,new lekki seaport,the dangote refinery is the largest construction site in africa today,eko atlantic city,orange island,banan@ island,ikoyi foreshore,ilubirin,marina axis,lekki phase 1,2,3,and still expanding,ikeja,maryl@nd,ikorodu,epe,apapa,surulere ,festac, guy lagos is the largest on the continent,she is expanding by every second,it is a cunorbation of different cities fused together.

Exactly. Lagos is now more than a city. It is a merge of cities and very soon, Lagos and the entire Ogun state will be one massive urban area with probably over 40 million people.

Nairobi is far quite smaller.

Yes, during the harmattans (December-February), temperature drops terribly and especially in the northern parts, temperatures go as low as 1 digit (3-9°) in most northern states (mostly during the nights and mornings).

Does Nairobi get as cold as that?

Nairobi is now a conurbation dude. You guys just don't like us posting Nairobi at all. Why don't we post the two cities and compare? NAirobi has grown into neigbouring cities nowadays

Kelele za chura means "noises from the frogs". Its used to mean you can't stop me/us from ur noises. A famous saying is "kelele za chura hazimzuii tembo kunywa maji" i.e Noises from the frogs don't stop elephants from taking water. I love the song btw

Jos

O0XYGEN:

Hahahaha in fact you are a villager.
Do you know snow?
Hahahaha which village are you from?
And nigeria is hotter than Ghana so shutup.
Ignorant villager.
What you experience in nigeria is called "Hail" not snow...
Why do you like disgracing yourself like that?
Hail is a normal thing in Ghana.
Hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha
Dumb ass slowpoke.
You don't know anything

The lowest temperature ever recorded in Ghana was 10°c. Northern Nigerian cities go as low as 3°c during harmattan and the lowest recorded temperature in Nigeria was 2.8°c in Potiskum, Yobe state.

Jos city however records lower temperatures in Nigeria, the city is a mountaineous city and temperatures of 3-9°c are everyday occurrences in Jos during Dec-Feb.

Yep, that's Tz. They mostly speak Swahili. Its Kenyans who mix the two languages alot.

Like many other Swahili songs, they are sang TO jealous people, gossipers etc. They are saying "let them talk, they are like the croaking of frogs in a water hole" (You do not ever want to have a bitter exchange of words with a Swahili )

Eastwalk:
Honestly am impressed with the pictures of kericho, good to know Kenya is not developing few cities, but you know what The 26th biggest city in ni is far infrastructurally advanced than kericho. Here's is the 26th biggest just to make sure, I mean Calabar , before I start posting pictures

Calabar is not less than 500,000 people now. How can you be using census of 2006 to speak for Nigeria? 11 years after?

Ali Kiba is my top singer from Bongo. Nagharamia means "I'm catering for it" while Aje means "Let her come". Gabu and Frasha have been singing for quite some time as group P Unit. They sing club bangers.

nyangau123:
though some areas can get pretty cold in kenya, in some parts especially in high altitudes temperatures can drop to single digits
kinangop town has been often nicknamed snow land due to frequent snow like hail, which are smaller in size than hail found in other parts of kenya

So u mean it snows in Kenya?
