What about Midrand and Germiston? Do you have pictures?

Cities in Ekurhuleni like Germiston , Benoni, Boksburg and Kempton are more industrial if you know what I mean? Instead of tall buildings and offices, they have massive factories ect ect Ekurhuleni is the Industrial mecca so to say of Gauteng......personally I feel Midrand is still developing into a city with the development of Waterfall city however IMO its not there just yet!

1. Kempton
2. Germiston
3. Boksburg
4. Benoni

Yes I agree with you numbers speaks volume..
The full picture shows everything not half picture

Shma:
Its visible.
Numbers speaks volume.

Watch well, you will see that almost all East African Countries have more than half of their citizens living in the slums whereas there are only few in West Africa Countries in such condition

Yes I do....It seems you dont though

BUILT UP=Developed. I can say the 40Kms radius is completely built-up or developed (Nigeria speak). Btw 40-60kms - you can describe as peri-urban.

From Nairobi center to Kitengela is nearly 40kms - completely built up.

From Nairobi to Thika is 40kms - completely built up.

From Nairobi to Tala - is completely built up.

From Nairobi to Limuru - is completely built up.

From Nairobi past Rongai to Kiserian - 40kms built up.

Btw 40-60kms - it about 50% built up.

Btw 60-100kms - it about 20% built up. Kajiado town is 110kms from Nairobi. Nairobi is extending all over there. Nairobi is now moving Past Kenol in Muranga. Nairobi is moving past Konza city to Salama. Nairobi will soon join up with Naivasah dry port/Suswa...Ngong to Suswa plots are being developed.

Unlike Lagos that is expanding in one direction - Nairobi is expanding in all directions - it has no water body

how many % of these "Built " up areas is developed ?

Kibera seems quite small, almost the same size as the golf course next to it.

smaller than Nairobi cbd + Upperhill combined ?

Who cares?

See Nigerian product used by UN.

I never said they weren't deployed on UN missions I said they were never bought by the UN

Are these UN AHs.....simple yes or no!

Out of 17 district (or whatever you call it) of Nairobi area, 2 full districts are dedicated to slums. Kibera and Mathare are these districts or constituencies and they are the first and second largest slums in Nairobi and also in the world.

Embakasi south Constituency which is also one of the contituency host a slum called Mukuru kwa Njenga. A slum in the East of Nairobi, the capital of Kenya. It belongs to Embakasi south Constituency, but extends into Makadara and Starehe constituencies

Korogocha which is your four largest slum in Nairobi is 1.5km². How can Nairobi be 5% slum?

Time will not permit me to mention other notable slums in Nairobi. Pardon me.

I don't know why they argue about slum all the time...could this be a way they use in projecting their agony on others. I mean 94% of kenyans are poor ..where else do they expect them to live ....in masionsssss!!!!..
Hell No...Coupled with the fact that 90% of nairobians live on rents which is quite expensive since high cost land properties tends to affect the price of housing forcing 61% that came to the urban space for livelihood to return back to slums which keeps ballooning steadiy since they is almost zero presence of affordable housing provided by the govt of kenya..if you don't even want to follow reports and stats logical reasoning like this can tell you nairobi is one huge slumpolis without even settings foot there or watching a video...

The best favor you could have done was to answer what i asked,.
Do you understand investment.?
And if yes, is Egyptian city a private or a govermental project investment? And how does that have do with Egypt being ahead of you?
You just answered it properly but as a matter of confidentiality, we should also ask you how you understand the term cos you can be dumb from the word go.

If you understand the term properly, you shouldn't have even posted it as far as your economy quation mark is concerned.

Latest Mercer. Lagos is more expensive than Nairobi. By far. Lagos sit next to Bangui.

Nairobi has slums. But Nairobi is not a slumpolis.

Nairobi is a well planned city.

LAGOS and KINSHASASA are mega slumpolis. KANO is nearly there - although KANO is entirely a slumpolis. Beats Kinshasasa to that. At least Lagos has one or two islands of prosperity.

Abeukota, Enugu, name any Nigeria city bar Abuja are slumpolis.

Abuja is well planned but it's going to end up a slumpolis if you don't enforce planning and zonning laws.

Lol

Nigeria has way more slums.

Kenya does..

It is on record that Kenya has over 200 slums...


You can keep posting pictures of Abeokuta and Ibadan to soothe your ego ..those place aren't slums because they aren't fully urbanised...

Those pictures of Abeokuta you are posting are a cluster of villages and towns.. Abeokuta and and Ibadan are very old and big...

They are made up of villages,towns and the city centre..



But Nairobi houses some of the biggest slums in the world...

Metro/Greater/Metropolis - no difference oga! You Lagos is very tiny before we remove water. And It's expanding in one direction - apart from Eko city land reclamation.

Nairobi is raising in all directions towards 100kms.

Do you know what covers a big portion of your slumbolish city.? it is slums and shanty houses nigga.

Indeed, The Greater Casablanca region size is about 1,117 km² and over 58% of the city is developed , what percentage of the so called "Greater Nairobi " is developed ?
Casablanca, has good city planing, good roads and wide spread development , but Nairobi does not have all dis

Thanks for answering.

To be frank, the Country than shocked me was and is Namibia.
I never expected to see Namibia as a glorified slums
ANGOLA and Cameroon really impressed me..

This must be a Nigerian forced to live with 10 other Nigerians after paying 2yr rent deposit.

It's only Nigerian who do that - Somalis use to do it too. Live 10 people in one single room.

There is housing in Nairobi for every income level and you can get it anytime. You don't need six month or 2yr rent deposit. Your friend is describing Lagos the slumpolis.

We have houses going for 5K dollars per month.

And we have houses in slums going for 5 dollars a month.

The point is nairobi one huge integrated properly slumpolis..you don't need videos sometimes to know that, just logical reasoning like the ones I highlighted is a enough to paint the gory image of Nairobi even before stepping foot there..

In between them are large jungles so the actual built up area is very small

rvp2018:
Nairobi built up area is more than 6,000kms. It radius of 60ks. Konza city. Thika city to Kenol that is 60 kilometers. Nairobi extend past Limuru past Rironi *60km. Nairobi is now near Kajiado - (60kms).

Mumu..

You just went to Wikipedia to copy and paste..

Lagos city has a landmass of 1171.28km² of which 999.6km² is land and the rest is water..

The 2,706.7 km² you added is the total area of the Lagos State metro areas.

Anyhow you calculate it,it's still bigger than Nairobi..

Kibera slum is 2.5 square kilometres while Upperhill is 2.8 square Kilometres.

Don't be shocked bro
You were right the other time.. most of these south and eastern African cities are just the same...only a tiny part of them is developed...

Shma:
Kibera can't match ibadan slums.
Special case Makoko should not even appear in the topic.

Up till today, none of you kiberans have been able to drop any data or source that shows that Ibadan has the biggest slums in Africa or whatever...

Everywhere you search "biggest slums in Africa" or " biggest slums in the world " ,you will always see Nairobi and Kibera..


Ibadan isn't entirely an urban area.

It's a very big landmass made up of villages, towns and the city centre...

The rusted zinc roofs may make it look ugly, but it isn't a slum...

The same applies to Abeokuta..
