  • Accra vs Nairobi
    In this video, we are taking another swipe at Accra and Nairobi-two cities we have previously covered. This time, however, we are pitting them against each other. Nairobi is one of my favourite places worldwide, and I hope to stay as objective as possible.
    By most metrics, Accra is not a match for Nairobi. The Kenyan capital is a leader, not only in East Africa but in Africa as a whole. Despite being smaller, it even beats Lagos on so many metrics. From its people, lifestyle, infrastructure, and its appeal to people from all over the world, Nairobi's hospitality, embodied by its humble residents and stands out.
    Accra has shown significant progress over the past two decades. Arguably, West Africa's most sought-after destination is another safe haven. It offers stunning condominiums and real estate opportunities, as well as an ever-expanding infrastructure to meet the needs of the influx of people moving into the city. Unlike Nairobi and Kenya, there are no winters in Accra. It is either hot, rainy, or humid, with a rich rainforest that makes up a greater part of Ghana.
    Let us know what you think in the comment section.

    Great vid, thank you for your honesty. West African culture is incredible though, from fashion, cuisine, art, music, dance, spirituality, learning and so on, everything is profoundly rich and steeped in centuries of creativity and exploration! If we created a purely African model of development based on our cultures, African would be even more amazing. Love from Kenya

    As a Kenyan, I would say Nigerians are great people but few among them are destroying the image their great country. Like for example, Dubai no longer issue visas to Nigerians, Qatar limits Nigerians from their country. But why? Kenya is having problems with Nigerians living in Nairobi. If Nigerian government won't curb this guys damaging the good image of their country, it will be very hard to host Nigerians in other countries. Mark my words.

Recently Nigerians were on the spotlight after one killed and mutilated a Kenyan girl in an airbnb. Brought them once again on security agents spotlight which may not go away soon. They are welcome to Kenya but let them be aware that they will be monitored from the moment they land. No one will bother them if they stick to the straight and narrow.

They literally removed a whooping four digits from their currency coz of the free fall caused by run away inflation! That helped to make the Cedi the highest-denominated currency issued in Africa! But not for long, coz as we speak, the Cedi has already lost 90% of its value 😢

No gate, no fencing. Example see the city center of Durban Nairobi Capetown, downtown Manhattan, New York, Paris, Tunis Joburg, port Elizabeth, Praia in Cape Verde , Must have steady power supply, emergency services, stable pipe borne water supply. Nigeria and Ghana don’t have a city that matches these features.🎉 Nigeria and Ghana don’t have a single modern city center

    West Africa is on average only 6hrs away from the 3rd biggest industrial capital of the world, mainland Western Europe. West Africa's beach lands are far more naturally attractive than beachlands in other regions of Africa. West Africa is far richer than East Africa in terms of natural resources; Congo DRC is in Central, Southern Africa. West Africa has some of the most internationally educated and exposed people in Africa. But where does West Africa go wrong, where does West Africa get it wrong. West Africa gets it wrong by embracing a decadent culture that stretches back centuries, to the days of slavery. A culture that promotes ultra selfishness, views civility as a sign of weakness and a criminal opportunity to take advantage of the uninitiated. It is also xenophobic to go to other regions of Africa and string them up drugs, turn their daughters to prostitutes, their sons to junkies, rob them, kidnap them, things you would never do to your own. So hatred of other Africans is also a part of this decadent culture. The biggest favour we can do our fellow Africans is stay in our own countries, and marry our own.

    How do you call a city (Nairobi) a home to a few specific tribes? Am sorry but you have a very myopic and primitive perspective in describing a city. Nairobi is home to KENYANS (All tribes included) and other international occupants call this city their home. It's a city not a regional town, built by collective efforts of all tribes that reside in Kenya. I hope you will correct your perspective next time.
