Holly Noo, those are old sections of Kano city. Some of those houses r over a hundred years old (pre colonial settlements).

>>>>See their before (pre-colonial) n after pics

If I may ask, are there serviceable roads in the areas you have posted? Its hard to figure how a road would crisscross.

NairobiWalker:


Lol, Kenyans are addicted to group selfies. How are you supposed to see their group selfies when you're in Nigeria? Add Kenyans on Facebook and follow them on Instagram and you'll see how much they love group selfies.

TayserMahiri:


Thats the every day kenyan you'll meet on the streets, not selected images.

You guys want to mislead genieluv abi?

Meanwhile, i helped to search for Kenyan selfies and this was the best kenyan group selfies i could find.

Good suggestion. She sounds quite ignorant on Kenyans

genieluv come n see NairobiWalker, his girlfriend n their president (Kenyatta) . Kenyans r indeed 'beautiful'

genieluv:


You can see that no matter how terrible those Ibadan houses look, they are appartment-styled houses which were laid with a foundation n design. There are just very old houses.
Kenyan slums were built to be slums from the onset.
Most of Kenyan slums r built with iron roofing sheet, metal scraps, no design, no plan, no foundation, no nothing.

Holly! Can u compare those Ibadan poor n ugliest areas with these pictures of Mathare below?

***Even a blind person can see the difference***

Yeah......that's the worst of Mathare and I agree it's bad. But you see Mathare occupies a very small percentage of Nairobi. Meanwhile the whole of Ibadan looks like that. I showed you photos of Majengo slum which has a similar history to Ibadan. It was initially a Swahili settlement with traditional Swahili architecture that fell into disrepair with time. Right now those once awesome houses that are currently occupied by people from the coast and Tanzanians are badly maintained and dirty just like Ibadan and Abeokuta - I showed you the photos. Very similar. See, we don't excuse Majengo from being called a slum because it ain't as bad as Mathare. Even high end neighborhoods are not posh to the same scale. Majengo is still a slum, just like 90% of Ibadan and Abeokuta.

Kenya VS Nigeria (men on suits)

NairobiWalker, TayserMahiri & mtis

TayserMahiri:


Your first time? Sometimes I just respond assuming you are honest. Kenyans probably do more group selfies than Nigerians percentage wise. We are party animals We party more than the average nigerian because events here are so many. The Koroga festival is bi monthly meaning it happens every two months. This one is mainly a family event and takes two days of pure fun. I have posted similar before but I guess you werent around. Please go to page 800
https://www.nairaland.com/3327789/kenya-ahead-nigeria-all-aspect/800
and follow the next few pages. We have many such events here, some happening deep in the wild.

Lol how do you know you party more than the average Nigerian? Lmao, you're funny.

You're back. Those are nice selfies but if you couldnt find the ones taken during the nightlifes, you aint done a thing. I should help you

Thats David Rudisha and his wife. You should watch out for him in the next Diamond League meet on 15 th to 18 th this month in Oslo and Stockholm. He is Maasai btw so am sure you're quite happy. He earns a minimum of 1.5 million kenya shillings for just showing, even if he doesnt complete a lap.

But you dont have a notable nightlife

TayserMahiri:


I havent encountered a Kenyan who denies slums are an anomaly.

Fair enough.

genieluv:


***Stop being mischievious! How can you juxtapose Ibadan n Mathare/kibera?
If i show u the modern parts of Ibadan, the first sky scrapper in Africa was built in Ibadan. Ibadan is the largest city in west Africa or even the entire Africa if am not mistaken. So, a very large part of it is modern.

~~~There r old sections of other african cities (north africa especially) that look as terrible as the old sections of Ibadan. They can never be classified as slums, cos they were never built as slums n were very beautiful in the times of their prime.
I can show you pictures of these old Ibadan houses many decades ago in their prime n you will be wowed. Can you show me beautiful pictures of Mathare or Kibera in their prime?

>>>>>Those new mass housing u are showing me in Kibera are govnmt built apparently to upgrade the place buh i heard that it has failed as some slum dwellers sell their given modern appartments n return back to the slums, n compared to the population of kenyan slums, i consider those buildings a joke. (although i still say to the govnmt kudos, at least for making an effort).

Ooh.....now just like your other countrymen you've become an expert on matters Kibera now? Please tell me again, what's the population of Kibera again? Just for your info, the houses I posted are in Mathare, not Kibera and they're not government houses.

For heaven's sake we are talking about the present. Ibadan was awesome years ago, today it's a slum so we'll call it a slum. Majengo too was awesome years ago, now it's a slum.

The few 'nice' places of Ibadan are still a joke in comparison to much smaller cities in Kenya like Kisumu and Nakuru. Most of Ibadan largely remains a dump.

Holly How r you sure u guys party more than the average Nigerians? You might just feel that way or assume cos most of our parties tend to be traditional or mostly graced by traditional attires.
Not our faults tho, we love our cultural attires so much

.*****However, we also do a lot of western parties*****

Check out these Nigerian white parties

Really?

TayserMahiri:

Daaay, there r street roads (most of which r unpaved buh are motorable) in most of the lanes.

***This is where you are missing it.
Yes, the old section of Ibadan is very large, buh not all parts of the old section of the city looks terrible!

These r also parts of the old section of the city n majority of the old section of the city looks like this! You can see the aerial view.

genieluv:


I really donno d population of Kibera buh slums r irregular settlements which happen to be very densely populated. So it's very common for slums to be highly populated compared to their smaller sizes.

Actually well planned neighborhoods with high-rises like Nyayo Housing Sacco in Nairobi below tend to have higher densities than slums (non high-rise ones)

Traditional parties I should try one but I know I would never fit in.
I love your white parties, we also have plenty of them

freshest4live:

Just prove me wrong

NairobiWalker, these are the modern developing parts of Ibadan n it is huge also.
I agree that the old section of Ibadan is very huge, true. *****Buh as i've shown you, not all parts of the old section look slumish in nature.

genieluv:


Daaay, there r street roads (most of which r unpaved buh are motorable) in most of the lanes.

We are paving roads in the slums

TayserMahiri:

Yaaah, u may look akward, probably cos u won't know how to wear or handle the traditional clothes, buh as long as u are a black man, people may not really notice
Traditional parties tend to be more fun n colourful

We are so into selfies, even our president takes them. I'm not sure Buhari would entertain that sort of bulshit

How about groundies? You guys dont just do selfies
The first is a kenyan groundie
The last is Zuckerberg enjoying Kenya

You do your own research because you obviously don't know what you are saying, we definitely have more nightlife than any other African country on the average, and we are by far the most populated. We have everything from nightlife to wildlife. So many activities, Night of a thousand laughs, Glo festivals, Tinapas, etc.This is a well known fact and it's quite ridiculous to think Kenya would have more nightlife than Lagos alone without even mentioning all of Nigeria. What notable night life does Kenya have that beats anything in Nigeria, can you tell me?

Your last statement.

There are people here (Nowe, Skirty et al) who can reason with you at your brain capacity. Try them.
Limit yourself to discussing gossip. This is serious stuff

TayserMahiri:

Our President is too old n unsavvy . He is not too used to modern trends.
Our vice below appears better.
