    I hope Nigerians watch and learn.
    This is how roads should be built. With road markings each side. With underground drainage systems and with sidewalks.
    Most Nigerian roads are with opened gutters, full of trash. No sidewalks. Half of the roads, unpaved. Even the paved ones are full of cracks and dust on the corners with no markings, no road signs or traffic lights. The roads are never maintained due to money pocketing corruption by political leaders.

Sad that gh and naija are often heard of because of the anglophone but these francophone countries have been far developed as well but we hardly hear because of language difference. Ivory Coast same.

      You are absolutely right, English speakers underestimate the development of French-speaking countries, especially in West Africa. You can take a trip to Calavi to visit the largest industrial area in West Africa under construction with an integrated power plant, modern roads, fiber optics and all the equipment necessary for the proper functioning of the area. Benin is the leading cotton producer in Africa, but the president has decided to no longer export raw cotton but to process everything here on site before exporting it. This will bring added value and it is not only cotton, this measure also concerns cashew, soy, pineapple... Benin exported a first order of 12 tons only 2 weeks ago. of T-shirts, Pullovers and others to the United States for a children's clothing company. Benin has been classified as a middle-income country by the IMF and is no longer considered a poor country with annual growth between 7 and 8%

    • @ogiepet
      @ogiepet Год назад +2

      Completely agree that the Nigerian government is much more corrupt than any other government in the continent, having said that, it is a common observation that smaller countries are most of the time better organised than bigger ones but that does not make them better in the real sense. For me, you have to be self employed to relocate from a large city like lagos to a tiny city like cotonou with little or no chance of getting a job. America has the biggest economy in the world but it isn't as organised as the small north countries of Europe, like Finland ( my place of resident for the past 4 decades.), Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Iceland. However, in terms of job opportunities you can never compare these countries to the almighty America. So, don't be fooled by what you see after all lagos economy is larger than that of several countries in Africa including Ghana.
