Algeria got independence in 1962, just 2 years after Nigeria.
Nigeria has only been unfortunate to be run by the most backward part of the country for nearly half of a century.
It really matters which ethno-cultural group that runs a country.
Till today you still find some Nigerians saying that the most progressive and development minded part of the country must never be allowed to be president.

One thing you should know is that Algeria 🇩🇿 was a French colony and French colonialist unlike their English counterpart adopted the policy of assimilation in almost all their colony, developing the places like their own homes even while milking the place undecided but the English colonialist? Those ones are worst than bandits in almost all their colony, they only touched few places mainly in the Southern part of the continent because of the weather which is kind of similar to theirs and they even want to take up those place permanently as their home as they did New Zealand and Australia lipsrsealed



And again, not just Algeria but the whole North African major cities look that way because they are also closer to Europe where they trade and have some economic activities with.

Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco were all close to Europe before the colonial masters came in. It even used to be part of the roman Empire and Ottoman Empire at different times.

Ibadan is a special case study, Ibadan was never invaded either by the north or Biafra, it never experienced any widespread, wide scale destruction but its fate is not better than cities that were the epicenter of war. It looks worse than war torn cities, it has no futuristic Outlook. The rate of decay Is more than triple growth rate

Op is obsessed with the European man, that is why he is looking for comparison to Europe. The same Europe preserved their old building and style but this same person will come here and call ancient Ibadan houses brown roof. Can you see that the problem is the mind? Ask them what buildings they want they will quote Dubai grin Why didn't you quote Asian cities

They like another man's thing, they hate themselves. Please take this paper to Bini kingdom less go

Most progressive minded part of Nigeria trafficking drugs and running baby factories.

Most progressive, yet all their people have dropped out of school, and jumped into Mallam Audu's trailer carrying Cows from Bornu through their cursed land to come and sell Gala and La Casera inside Lagos hold-ups and sleep under Lagos bridges

Now, this is tranquillity. Nigerian population and lawlessness won't make any place resemble this else this would be Calabar, Uyo, Abuja or Enugu.

Have you been to French Sub Sahara colonies? The likes of Mali, Niger, Cameroon Congo etc.. We Africans kept ourselves backwards no one elsewhere did. The English has many well to do colonies than the French and Spanish colonies.. Bad leadership and bad followers is what finish us in Nigeria

You made an honest observation.
You see some here making excuses , and yet others clearly unable to intelligently make the assessment still due to rapid satanically tribalistic minds.
I saw an area in Lagos that I used to know about 20 years ago, and the area is looking far worse than it was 20 years ago!
It is as if Nigeria is racing backwards while other countries are inching forward.
Classical definition of lunacy is doing the same thing and expecting different result.

Because those countries were engaged in some turmoil due to the political greed of Africans doesn't mean the French didn't achieve anything worthwhile for them.


Check the ancient city layout for those cities and how some of govt of those countries are currently and judiciously following the development plan.


Check out the plans and current city layout for Niamey, Cotonou, Lome, Dakar, Douala, Bamako, Abidjan, Kinshasa and other French colony city and compare them with their English counterparts.

Bro you funny ooo



Apart from cities like Enugu, Kaduna, Jos, Aba, Onitsha, Port Harcourt, parts of Lagos and Calabar which other Nigerian city felt even a touch of planning in them by the colonialists? And the areas touch here were places this people live and are exclusive to them alone which is unlike that of the French where they plan the whole city across length and breadth which is not just for them alone but also for Africans who them...


You should have enquired why the French are the least racist amongst this colonialists even till date.

Which ancient houses do you have in Ibadan?
Houses that is less than 60 years old are modern houses but lack of renovation is the problem.

Your comment is actually the probIem with Nigerià.
Look at the entire "progressive region", they dón't have any world class infrastructure, not road, not bridges, not stadia, not schools, not hospitals, infact no sanitation, no water services, no fire services, nothing nothing.
Just loud mouths about being progressive.
The leadership in this region is among the worst in the country yet they still feel they are the most progressive.
The centralized power causing raucous today was done by them, so how are they the most progressive?
The problem with Nigerià is the blame game.
