  • Enjoy this drive from a neighbourhood on the outskirts of the Federal Capital City, to Mabushi, an area closer to the city centre, Enjoy!
    Abuja (/əˈbuːdʒə/) is the capital and eighth most populous city of Nigeria. Located in the centre of the country within the Federal Capital Territory, it is a planned city built mainly in the 1980s based on a master plan by Japanese architect Kenzo Tange. It replaced Lagos, the country's most populous city, as the capital on 12 December 1991.
    Abuja's geography is defined by Aso Rock, a 400-metre (1,300 ft) monolith left by water erosion. The Presidential Complex, National Assembly, Supreme Court and much of the city extend to the south of the rock. Zuma Rock, a 792-metre (2,598 ft) monolith, lies just north of the city on the expressway to Kaduna.
    At the 2006 census, the city of Abuja had a population of 776,298 making it one of the ten most populous cities in Nigeria (placing eighth as of 2006). According to the United Nations, Abuja grew by 139.7% between 2000 and 2010, making it the fastest growing city in the world. As of 2015, the city is experiencing an annual growth of at least 35%, retaining its position as the fastest-growing city on the African continent and one of the fastest-growing in the world. As of 2016, the metropolitan area of Abuja is estimated at six million persons, placing it behind only Lagos as the most populous metro area in Nigeria.
    Major religious sites include the Nigerian National Mosque and the Nigerian National Christian Centre. The city is served by the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport. Abuja is known for being one of the few purpose-built capital cities in Africa, as well as being one of the wealthiest.
    Abuja is Nigeria's administrative and political capital. It is also a key capital on the African continent due to Nigeria's geo-political influence in regional affairs. Abuja is also a conference centre and hosts various meetings annually, such as the 2003 Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting and the 2014 World Economic Forum (Africa) meetings.

    Hey guys, I'd like to know if you prefer these videos with the driving sound as it is or you'd like that I add some kind of music or tone as background sound for the videos.
    Looking forward to reading form y'all.

      Other than cleaning the windshield, don't change anything. The muffled traffic sounds are relaxing. Beautiful part of the world, nice job!

      Thank you so much for the feedback. I enjoy listening to the driving and traffic sound myself, I was only reacting to suggestions from one of the viewers. I'll keep it as it is, without external music.
      I have now cleaned the windshield, you should get better video quality from the new videos I'll be recording. I just have to get through these ones I previously recorded first of all.

      That's a pretty hot take and I respect your opinion.
      But you'd agree with me that we can appreciate the beauty that exists in the little things.
