The difference btw Kenya and Nigeria slums. Nigeria slums are legal. In Kenya they are illegal and constructed with temporary materials - because they will eventually be demolished. They don't have title-deed - and are not expanding. They are established along river beds or public reserve land - so nobody can invest serious money in them.

Now for Nigeria - you have allowed 85% of your city to turn into a huge integrated slumpolis.

And as Abbhoy said - the only solution is demolition.

And strictly enforcing zoning and building codes.

Otherwise as long as anybody can do anything in Nigeria - you're creating an urban jungle.

You're ready to pay the price. In Kenya we demolish multi-million houses routinely.

Oh shut up and honour to gullible Kenyans or better still feed that to Adhoboy....
This is a permanent building, built with concrete and keep expanding...Guess what, it is a slum in Nairobi...A legal integrated slumpolis.....
As a nairobian you either live in Westland(parkland, south b ,south C, and killimani included)Karen,CBD, upperhill,Langata or you live in places like this or Roysambu, Eastleigh, Zimmerman...and worse off you end up in kibera, . Mathare, kwangware.

Millions of tourist who charter direct flights to Mombasa from Europe and elsewhere don't know what you're talking about. Others who come with cruise ships - we even now have cruise ships terminal - have never heard of your nonsense.

As the peak season gathers momentum, Mombasa is looking to have unprecedented number of tourists, thanks to the increased number of direct international airlines landing at the coastal city.

The city, known as Kenya’s gateway, has seen seven airlines launch dedicated international flights to serve the rising number of tourists eager to sample the sunny, sandy beaches and a wide menu of other attractions.

Tourist come into Mombasa for two thing ...the beach and the pedophile sex...take those two out and Mombasa is like moghadishu......I showed you a video of moghadishu...I hope you saw the similarity Mombasa shares with that place....

Who would want to fly into Mombasa to undergo urban tourism...except such fellow is prepared to go home with a serious aliment...the city is a filthy mess..

Nairobi vs Khayelitsha

What is it that Nairobi has that Khayelitsha don't have?

Yes I agree..that should be the show to let them know their place in the ground scale of things...

Nairobi vs Khayelitsha
Nairobi vs Rusteng
Nairobi vs beville
Nairobi vs Bloemfontein..

rvp20182:
You have 1.2m (out of 3.5M) people living in slums in Cape-town - nearly all of them blacks. You can choose to engage in schoolyard pranks with Samrobo but I won't dignify your nonsense.

While Nairobi was ranked no 14 worldwide in eco-friendliness - your best Cape town - came - nearly at 50.

Nairobi is moving forward as you regress.

And so what... nairobi is still a little shiithole compared to those cities that it was ranked over by this unknown ,not -so-popular organisation..

Lagos economy >> Kenya. Remember.

That's true.

Pls, where did u dig ur stat from? From 85% of lagos island as slum to 60-70% of lagos as slum? Do u even know lagos island stretches to onikan (one of d coolest neigbourhood on earth)? Why use balogun market alone to judge l/island, a market about to be demolished? dont even get me started on ur doggy 70% stat cos any city with that slum rate wont be listed as d 5th most beautiful n developed city in d continent.

Yes we earn that.....I think that place was voted 5th in the world..

chrisooblog:
if you say Lagos is 60-70% slums then I think you need to give the criteria for slums. if you are saying that Lagos has kibera levels of slums in abundance that's not true. makoko is the place I can best describe as being like that however if an American says we have a lot of slums based on where he is coming from I would agree cos some of the poorest American areas or projects are just like a lot of Lagos neighbourhoods

True..but never a Kenyan..like WTF..

I will not even lie, 85 percent of Lagos island is a slum, thst is a fact poor roofing, old buildings but there is now hope because they have just finalized the design of the Lagos island regeneration plan, it basically entails moving some of the people currently living in those buildings to the new ilubirin housing scheme, rebuilding the balogun market and turning it into a massive mall, than demolishing the rest of the buildings and turning them into high rises see pics down below, the last pic is construction progress on the low cost apartments for the people living in the slum of Lagos island.

Which Lagos Island is a slum? What makes it a slum?

I sceenshoted this movie that am watching of Lagos neighborhood. See how beautiful it is.

Ilubirin is not part of it....ilubirin sits on the mouth of oworoshoki and would be connected to banana island when fourth mainland bridge is completed...

As for this project it might get funded by private sector and be backed by LASG same way they are doing with ilubirin...I have pics of sanwo U checking out some prototype sample in China early this year..
Ilubirin will probably give you the feel of what you get when you shop on Oxford Street,London...... basically just high end stores,cafes, souvenir shops, restaurant, office spaces busy streetlively neighbourhood....not a serious CBD but can atleast open up that axis into a CBD in the future...
