rvp20182: Why are some black Americans light... Afterall they were taking from west africa with a substanitial amount from Nigeria Truth is yes people bleach but naturally Nigeria has light-skinned(some very light skinned) and darkskin people. Nigeria is a mix of skin tones. Some ethnic groups in Nigeria though are renowned for their light skin such as the igbos and fulanis 4 Likes |

rvp20182: It's true Kenya had a head start on building modern retail space, no doubt. Modern retail space is fairly nascent in Nigeria Here's an article from MCkinsey: https://www.mckinsey.com/business-functions/marketing-and-sales/our-insights/africas-growing-giant-nigerias-new-retail-economy And another one from euromonitor: http://www.euromonitor.com/grocery-retailers-in-nigeria/report Modern retail space has been booming in Nigeria recently with Nigeria's formal retail space more than doubling recently... In no time Nigeria will catch up, giving its huge population 8 years ago a middle class Nigerian would have probably went to the local market or some poor quality building to buy his necessities. To go to malls, he would have to travel far distances go to the nearest mall or travel abroad Today the dynamics have changed. The middle class Nigerian has options with more and more malls being built around him. He has stores now like shoprite, spar, game, and others to choose from. Now Nigerian indigenous investors are seeing the opportunities and expanding rapidly. Nigeria has its own version of Sam's Club now(NEXT) Neighborhood malls and stores are also fast becoming a trend these days What's fascinating is that investors are not only interested in Lagos and Abuja, they also see the middle class outside Lagos and Abuja and are rapidly expanding into 2nd tier cities in Nigeria as well Don't see why formal retail space is recently booming in Nigeria if there isn't a substantial middle class... BTW the the two rivers mall is about to get beat by a mall in Eko Atlantic. The eko mall will be about twice the size of the Kenyan mall. I do admit though retail growth was a bit shaky during the 2yr recession(as to be expected) but things are looking positive again Private secondary schools in Nigeria: Atlantic Hall: ![]() ![]() Lekki British international school ![]() ![]() Chrisland highschool ![]() 1 Like |

Nigeria tops in 10 most stressed countries list Nigeria and its citizens have shot up to the top of countries with the most stress according to a research that was carried out by Bloomberg. Nigeria has created another milestone as she comes out as the top most stressed country in the world for 2016 and 2017, according to a research carried out by Bloomberg. In the research which was meant to find out how stress affects citizens of different countries, Nigeria was voted as the number one country where residents are stressed out. Researchers analyzed different variables in 74 countries including annual homicide rate, GDP per capita, insecurity, income inequality, corruption, unemployment, health care quality, crime rate, suicide rate and air pollution and typically, Nigeria was not found wanting as it dusted countries like South Africa, Bolivia, Pakistan, Colombia, and others. 1. Nigeria Nigeria ranks as number one on the list the top 10 most stressed countries in the world. InsideMonkey.com describes Nigeria thus: 'as the eighth most populous country in the world, Nigeria has mass poverty and unemployment with more than 60 percent living below the poverty line. Up to five million Nigerians live with HIV or AIDS. In addition to the myriads of problems Nigeria is faced with, the citizens face an extreme religious conflict between Muslims and Christians, mass deforestation and water pollution.' However, they also failed to point out that Nigeria is also bedeviled with crime, insecurity, Boko Haram, Fulani herdsmen attack, and a highly corrupt government and its officials who only look out for themselves. 2. South Africa As in every other thing, South Africa has refused to let Nigeria take the shine off them as they come in second on the list. Time.com reports that until 1994 when it got its independence, apartheid rule caused mass stress across South Africa. But with democracy now thriving, tensions between the black and white populations still exist. The economy declined in 2009 and South Africa is still dealing with mass unemployment and substantial poverty. There is also xenophobic attacks by citizens on fellow blacks from other countries whom they accuse of taking their jobs and constituting nuisances in their country. A study in 2011 showed that 64 percent of South African women feel stressed most of the time. 3. El Salvador The nation faces problems with violence, poverty, immigration and human rights. So much so that more and more El Salvadorians emigrate every day to escape the stress, troubles, and danger of their daily lives. 4. Mongolia Mongolians live with high poverty levels and overpopulation. Plus their country now has high levels of air pollution and the rates of suicide have dramatically increased. 5. Guatemala Income inequality between rich and poor continues to grow in the Central American country of Guatemala. The research shows that Guatemalans have been witnesses to extreme violence, gangs and drug trafficking throughout the country’s recent history which has caused so much stress for the citizens. 6. Colombia Colombia has been struggling with high crime rates, drug trafficking, gang wars, murder and extreme poverty. InsiderMonkey.com wrote that the problems the country faces have affected 46 percent of the total population, with 64 living in rural areas. Life in a Colombian ghetto Photo Credit: Insight Crime 7. Pakistan Pakistanis have had to face political instability, terrorism and widespread poverty which has led to the soaring stress befalling the citizens. The research states that poverty has increased from 30 to 40 percent over the last ten years and it does not look like it will end soon with the war going on in the Middle East also contributing to it. 8. Jamaica Jamaica has always been known to have a high-level crime rate, drug trafficking, and gang wars but in the last few years, these vices have grown to higher proportions, leading to stress for its citizens. Peace has eluded the Island Caribbean country for years and it currently has one of the highest murder rates in the world. 9. Macedonia Macedonia has a black eye when it comes to human rights, specifically when it comes to race and ethnic discrimination. The country also has big problems with domestic abuse and sex trafficking. The Jamaican Flag 10. Bolivia Bolivia has a history of turbulence, poverty, drug trafficking and murder, with the crime rate rising every other day. InsiderMonkey.com wrote: 'with a population of more than 10.67 million people, 64 percent of Bolivians live below the poverty line. Add to that is Bolivia’s unsteady government. The country’s constitution has been rewritten numerous times and its people have lived through nearly 200 government overthrows. http://www.pulse.ng/gist/nigeria-tops-in-10-most-stressed-countries-list-id6481624.html |

Ranking of countries with best infrastructure in 2017 Quality of infrastructure: countries with best infrastructure 2017 The graph shows a ranking of countries according to the quality of their infrastructure in 2017. Switzerland is the global leader in overall infrastructure with a value of 6.6 on a scale of 1 to 7. The scale ranges from 1 = underdeveloped and 7 = extensively by international standards. The United States were on twelfth rank. Between 2008 and 2013 U.S. expenditures for infrastructure totaled to 2.4 percent of the GDP. Additional information on global infrastructure quality Well functioning infrastructure is a cornerstone of a modern society. As well as serving an important role in facilitating business transitions, infrastructure increases a country’s efficiency and improves the standard of living of its citizens. As such there is a positive correlation between the gross domestic product of countries and their infrastructure quality with the two sharing a cyclical relationship. Economic growth allows for additional infrastructure investment while infrastructure is a necessary component in improving economic conditions. Infrastructure comes in various forms depending on what is required by the society in question. Transport, energy, communications, water, waste and defense are all examples of sectors requiring significant infrastructure in order to operate effectively and efficiently. Transport infrastructure is typically the most discussed form of infrastructure and a primary focus of resources, in part because it has a direct effect on the lives of citizens that is both tangible and visible. Moreover, countries well equipped with roads, rail and port facilities are better positioned to gain from trade domestically and internationally. Singapore and Hong Kong are both examples of countries who have taken a competitive advantage from their geographic location in terms of trade facilitation. Therefore is it no surprise that both are in the top five largest ports worldwide by cargo turnover while also taking the top two spots in global infrastructure quality. Obviously, as the needs of societies change so do their infrastructure needs. The importance of transport and energy infrastructure is reflected in the investment strategy of the United Kingdom with future investment being heavily geared towards these two sectors. However, an entirely new area of infrastructure is becoming a requirement as societies continue to increase their use of internet and cloud based technologies. Moreover, infrastructure also requires upkeep and improvement as time goes on. In recent years the issue of infrastructure decay has been raised in the United States. Criticism has been directed at the short-sightedness of governments in delaying necessary infrastructure refurbishments. Critics are concerned with the stagnation or decline in spending across a number of infrastructure based sectors, including construction, at a time when a number of projects are due for renewal.

Search it up. The igbos were recognized by their light skin. It probably has to do with the igbos coming from a heavily forested region. 1 Like 1 Share |

You need to travel a lot more - I think outside South Africa - Kenya elite schools are probably sub-saharan bests. The schools you've have there are 3rd or 4th tier box-shaped schools you'll find in kenya meant to host lot of pupils. Kenya elite schools have everything including airstrips, golf course and such facilities. Kenya schools top Africa school fees chart - beating many developed countries. https://www.businessdailyafrica.com/corporate/Nairobi-international-schools-top-tuition-chart/539550-3906644-12d36hoz/index.html Let start with Brookhouse with victorian look - designed like the Hogwarths in the Harry Potter movies -by Kenyan architects. This school is worth nearly 15Billion Naira. It boast some of world class facilities and sit on expansive land in Nairobi's Karen.

List your top ten private schools outside Nairobi and Mombassa, that can be paid for by those who receive at least 500 thousand shillings anually ( 1.5 million naira), and compare them to those in Nigeria outside Lagos and Abuja, or even PortHarcourt( to be fair in our arguements), you'll see what nwoke is talking about.

Some of best private schools in Kenya and Africa outside Nairobi & Mombasa include 1) Rift Valley Academy - I have seen it ranked no 1 or 2 in Africa. 2) St Andrew Turin Molo - I can go on and on but you''ll shift the debate.
