The Limete Tower is one of the tallest buildings in Africa, located in the capital city of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kinshasa. The tower was an idea of the then military dictator and President Mobutu Sese Seko Kuku Ngbendu Wa Za Banga, or in short Mobutu.
The history of skyscrapers didn't begin in 1973 with Carlton Center. Cocoa House in Ibadan, Nigeria was built in 1964. It was the tallest building in West Africa from 1964 to 1979
where is the algeria's great mosque of algiers, its literally the tallest building in africa, its literally 265 meters. its supposed to be 1st on this list :/
If the "East African Community" #EAC proceeds with their plan to become the "East African Federation" #EAF Kenya🇰🇪 Tanzania🇹🇿 Uganda🇺🇬 Rwanda🇷🇼 Burundi🇧🇮 and South Sudan🇸🇸 Infrastructure will be aggregated and greatly improved.
@@Tata-bd9nx that's you...If it happens I will support it. NOTE: The East African Community is about to expand to three more countries. I guess you don't like that either.
@@abdulsharif6541 I wouldn't care even if they added South Africa to the East African community, in fact the more the merrier. But merging of countries into one is a NO for me. Each country has gone through so much so far to just merge us. We all have different ways of doing business, principles, cultures etc. Kenyan and proud.👍
250 is short until you decide to jump. people have to start somewhere. with the instabilities that were in Africa a few years ago, nobody would have invested in a tall building with rocket launchers in the hands of children

Thanks for pointing that out! Will look into it!
Actually the tallest building in Africa isn't in South Africa but in Egypt now
This you tuber seams to b a south African to bcos he always favors South Africa in almost all his videos
I believed Johannesburg,South Africa marks the record as the tallest building on the African continent in 2021!
no. iconic tower in the new administrative capital of Egypt took that title in October 2020 after topping 250m.

I believed there are many skyscrapers across the African countries are developing daily in West, East, North & Southern African continent in 2021!
Definitely there are! Will definitely do a video about them. Thanks so much!❤
How many floors / what height does a modern skyscraper need to qualify as one?
Do research of 2022 and see uganda 🇺🇬

@@Tata-bd9nx I second that. let's just be neighbors
While in Asian 250 meter they say still short.
Yeah, that's the difference!
You mean the people ?

Asia is the most densely populated continent in the world. Of course they have to build taller buildings
