Danielnino00: In good faith I don't mean to demean you but I'd rather have a decent town than a slum of a city. Your definition of city is only based on population but never quality. See for instance, Naivasha is a small town of about 180,000 people while Abeokuta is a city of over 1 million people. But look at Naivasha and compare it with Abeokuta. Naivasha ![]() ![]() Now look at Abeokuta ![]() [img]https://fullandbright.files./2010/10/img_0120.jpg[/img] [img]https://format-com-cld-res.cloudinary.com/image/private/s--FUTNGum5--/c_fill,g_center,h_264,w_1242/a_auto,fl_keep_iptc.progressive,q_95/v1/d1de8be20ed61b847e8519de00e819fc/Postcards_from_Abeokuta_II.jpg[/img] Free advice, don't just base your arguments on population - Nigeria is 4 times more populous than Kenya. Look at quality. 3 Likes |

Had to confirm again those pictures - yeap - that is what I am talking about slum cities. Nigeria in 70-80s OIL BOOM moved to towns in droves [they had for a decade the world fastest urbanization] in search for elusive OYEL money- and yet there was no corresponding infrastructure or housing development - and what you got are huge slum metropolis - and collapsed rural economy (agriculture) - I tell you the amount of fallow land you'll find in Nigeria is staggering. Everybody and their grandmother basically abandoned the villages in 80s for unplanned urban centers --- except maybe for the nomadic north (hausa-fulani-kanuri) - you now have mega metropolis of slums - without electricity or water or sewage or any garbage collection -- everyone is just waiting for oil money to come from Abuja and if not - trying to escape Nigeria.

This what my colleague wrote recently as he left for Nigeria. Nigeria! I've attached a '"Where the heck is Minna?" Map' in case that was your first thought. One google post I found really sums Minna up, though:"Brown, caked, dry, uncultivated, vast expanse of land; I was amazed. I've never seen land so extensive without trees all my life." I'm sure you understand the appeal! 1 Like |

rvp20182:Are you truly a Kenyan?? l ask because you are obsessed with Nigerian matters, l don't even know so much about Kenya, and l haven't met any Nigerian who cares to know or ever discussed about Kenya. lt's just one of those other African countries. That aside, l think your analysis is wrong, l have been to Lagos just 3times all my life and l have never been to Abuja. There are many others like me spread across the country. |

You guys started this thread and invited us here. I think there is no incentive to visit any nigeria city - because the poverty and desperation is uniform - the whole country economy long collapsed - so if you go to Lagos or Abuja or Abeukota or Ibandan - it the same depressing slum metropolis. Here in Kenya there is the incentive to really visit the country - our tourism is world class (although now it very small part of the econom 1.5% of GDP from highs of 15% a decade) - so there is a lot of domestic tourism. Huge part Nairobi moves to Mombasa & coastal cities during holidays breaks. Nairobi people travel to say Naivasha or such towns for weekends. But if you're talking urbanization...then I don't mean all Nigerians moved to Lagos or Abuja...they mainly moved to their state capitals...so they could get a share of the oil money. Definitely Nigeria 80s urbanization was world fastest!!! and the collapse of agriculture it's consequence. Daejoyoung: 2 Likes |

Read this will because people in nigeria are starving to death. Why I Am Leaving Nigeria To Invest In Liberia Why I didn't invest in Afghanistan and Syria. It is for the simple fact that investors are people. Investors have spouses. Investors have children. They need hospitals and schools. Sometimes a playground to play. Afghanistan and Syria are very bad places to invest. not because there are no opportunity there, but the opportunity cost is too high. You could get killed. Some people are angry at me because I am going to Liberia to invest. They said people need jobs in Nigeria. That is true. Many people don't know that I have fought different types of forces in Nigeria. Customs, Immigration, Police, Governors, Area Boys, Fulani herdsmen, even the civil servants and even ordinary citizens. Actually, it is a wonder that I am still alive. It wasn't like some people would do, come to Nigeria for few weeks and go back to New York to their regular job. No, I was grinding it out in NIgeria, sometimes I stayed an entire year at a time. I even came with my bulletproof vest because some guys were shooting at it.. Yes, I know what some people are thinking. No, it wasn't spiritual attack, It is just a lot of bad people living in a chaotic and disorderly country. They put so much obstacles on the way of progress that it seems that is their calling for humanity. After sometimes, it doesn't make any more sense to continue to risk one's live in the name of investment. hat is not investment but a suicide mission. Investment is not sentiments, it involved serious money earned through hard work by people. That is the same reason I didn't invest in Afghanistan or Syria. Although, Nigerians needs investors, the place is not ready for investors. The citizens are not even thought on how to deal with investors. Most countries of the world have policy on how their citizens deals with Investors because investors are people. For now, they are not safe in Nigeria. Nigerians need awakening of consciousness. People must wake up to their responsibilities because The Customs, Immigration, Police, Governors, Area Boys, Fulani herdsmen and the civil servants are all people. till now my wife of almost 30 years still don't have a resident permit in Nigeria. It is always one story after the other. All Nigerians must realised that the entire country is dragged down collectively through national effort and not just by one single individual. So, I will try Liberia, maybe we can succeed there and spread the love to Nigeria later. However, if they behave like Nigerians I will stop investing in Africa for good. I am not bitter, but just a realist. Then I could say like Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh said: "I have done my bit." But, I still won't invest in Afghanistan or Syria. https://m.facebook.com/AromsAigbehi/photos/a.160241647815285.1073741828.158338594672257/379730482533066/?type=3 |

TayserMahiri: Undiluted truth... to all those still pushing their various businesses and pushing hard, Nigeria deserves you. -A country where some people are paying Nepa to take light.. -A country where some people divert fuel just to sell black market.. -A country where traditional rulers would ask for millions for an organization to build road and schools for their community.. -A country where employers never acknowledge your strengths just so you would never be empowered to leave.. -A country where oil companies sabotage refineries just so their private filling stations would thrive.. -A country where the schools of the poor are neglected so as the wards to become tools to the rich. -A country where the best brains get 240 above to secure admission while below average get less than half to secure same admission. -A country where its security outfits only listens to the highest bidder. -A country that the rich evade tax while the poor cant even run a business without multiple taxation. -A country that an aspirant goes into position with just a home and comes out with 5 highrise, 30 duplex, 15 luxury cars, directorship in bluechip companies, 7 estates in a space of 4 years with a salary of less than N1m.. -A country where the poor are empowered with shoe shinning kits while the rich file their children on scholarships meant for militants, Idp's, brilliant minds, War soldiers, medicals for the poor etc.. - A country where the rule of law only works for the poor.. A country where dreams are killed even before they are hatched. 2 Likes |

TayserMahiri: Haiyyyya!? This is the first I'm hearing about a major project. My goodness! http://mwalemedicalandtechnologycity.com/Home.html Phase 1 encompassed a multi-billion shopping and residential complex, Hamptons Mall, with Mwal-mart Supermarket as the anchor. The mall hosts Mwalmart supermarket, Hamptons Cafe bed and breakfast, showroom and more than 90,000 square feet of private residences.[8] Phase two commenced in June 2016 and ran to September 2017. This included the first section of 5,000 bed referral hospital, over 70 kilometers of roads, and more than 300 solar street lights. Phase 2 also included the first phase of 4,800 homes expected to host doctors and nurses. The final phase, from September 2017 to December 2020, includes the 36-hole golf resort and residences, an airport with the second shopping mall, a convention center and a water park connected to the hospital by a cable car. It will also have medical school, a technology park and a 144-megawatt gasification power plant https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mwale_Medical_and_Technology_City DANGOTELANDERS,SEE REAL DEVELOPMENT AND PROGRESS WITH INVESTORS AND LOCALS HAND IN HAND MOVING FORWARD WHILE YOU'RE BUILDING FAILED MONO RAILS AND WAITING FOR YOUR KING TO PAY FOR YOUR SUYA!
