It makes no sense Nairobi must atleast mach with polokwane not even close to Pretoria

@@fanievilankulu6412 comparing Nairobi to Polokwane is an insult to Nairobi.

I know you mean well bro, but Jozi is ahead of Nairobi in so many aspects. I also hope for more development in other places in Africa so our people can visit and enjoy the continent. Kinshasa, Dar Es Salaam, Kigali, Addis Ababa, Mogadishu, Windhoek, Durban, Port Louis and more. Good thing is, the development is shaping up.

Catching up with what?🤣🤣🤣

@@erickmoenga1206 In terms of what?

I agree. Jo'burg is bigger, has great infrastructure, and much wealthier.

Exactly.

Don't sell Nairobi too short. It is a great city and besides the whole development thing, Nairobi has an all round appeal. I say that being a South African having lived in Nairobi. That was 10 years ago so i am sure Nairobi has developed further cause when i left, you had just opened your first KFC and the freeway/highway was being built.

I’m a South African and I love Nairobi.

Being a Kenyan you may be blinded by being to used to Nairobi and may think that other cities are better, but in reality Nairobi is way better than most. I think the video was just about right.

All in all we are all one people.Love

Come on it's not competition ,comparison is the best way we can grow, when we compare we learn what others are doing that makes them better and we can do it ....

@@Avaricumstudios well you saw it as comparison but if you went through the comments and how most people took this information,It’s more of competition than comparison.

I dont understand it either...

As a member of the diaspora in the USA these videos are important to us. I just retired, and planning my move to Africa, so I see every country as a comparison. Yes, socially, they shouldn't compete with one another, but for informational purposes, comparing is what we expats must do.

I've been fortunate to see the development taking place in Nairobi, it will be a really nice destination to visit in 5 years, some of the Estates in Nairobi are good too, some need development but it's good work going on

Very very true ! Moi wasted this country a lot !

Joburg is better than Nairobi infrastructure wise but overall Nairobi is better coz it's much safer, easier to do business and the infrastructure is also quite reliable

Johannesburg it's wealthiest city in Africa

So our country's GDP is half of Joburg's GDP? Smh watu wangu tutaomoka aje 🤣

That's because Johannesburg is literally a mine... And not just any mineral gold and diamond, are the cities comparable? Yes they are

Nairobi doesn't have any mineral wealth.

People voted and preferred Nairobi.What dont you South Africans get?

It doesn't matter both are in africa. One continent. Each city has pros and cons and something good to offer.

Using Chinese money worries me.If you default they take your assets.Kenyan Prof is correct some countries will be recolonized.We should not compete rather focus on eradicating poverty.

@Thabiso Maila have never heard of anything called jozi in my life..kenya won the top and best tourist attractions and Nairobi ranked as the best city to live in Africa

In terms of infrastructure yes joburg slightly wins but if you add other factors like safety, business, xenophobia to get an overall ranking then no one would choose living in joburg over Nairobi ,that's why Nairobi was recently ranked best citt in Africa ahead of those SA cities

Mother Africa on the move

I'm SA, i agree with you. Naroibi is booming.

I have been to Joburg and live in Nairobi. Nairobi is closing down big time on many fronts. Nothing to make it not comparable to Joburg. They each have things which stand out and give one advantage over another. The main point is not about which is wealthier like some deluded shallow minds want to make it.

Nah , fam ...Jozi is by far the

Come on , Jozi its not slightly better , its by far better city when its comes to infrastructures between both countries . some of places wasn't shown at all , like MELROSE-ARCH and ROSEBANK area😆😆 . there's just huge gape between both cities .

I agree 💯 bt comprairing Nabi and joh is big sin ,,,, they are both great and Nairobi Is rapidly developing myb after 5+ Nairobi will be almost developed city in content...now ongoing project Nairobi express way will change the face of Nairobi for sure 😊

These are two giant must respected

Nope, you are wrong, Jozi is growing and there are even Cities being built within Johannesburg. Jozi is not dormant and all, it keeps growing and still attracts the bulk of investment both local and foreign within SA. To say it is dormant is either you don't have enough information or you simply trying to deceive people. Rosebank, Waterfall City, Sandton City, Fourways Precinct, Inner City rejuvenation, Steyn City .. the list is of new projects is long, Infrastructure continues to to be built and jozi is receiving more and more investments. 🇿🇦R16toR71Billion Waterfall City Mega Project - Update - (R71B upon completion in 2025)✔ - KZfaq

@@zimcoder If you look keenly, you will realize that Johannesburg of today has barely made significant progress in comparison to the Johannesburg of 1994. In fact, Johannesburg was a more prestigious city during early 1990s just before the end of Apartheid.

Nairobi city has got the fastest internet in the Africa.. Surpassing even western europe countries...

@@zimcoder Nairobi is a construction site from end to end (Kenya’s capital city Nairobi has been ranked 12th out of 57 cities sampled globally in the Expat City Ranking 2021. This sees the city rise by 80 percent from its previous 62nd position in 2020. Nairobi came 12th to beat previously top-rated cities including South Africa’s Cape Town (41), Johannesburg (55), and capital city of Egypt, Cairo which was ranked at 52nd position) The respondents (expats) ranked the cities on quality of urban living and development, getting settled, finance and housing, urban work life, and local cost of living.

@Thabiso Maila My broher, your Johannesburg no longer has an advantage it used to enjoy like a decade ago. It is degrading because of crimes, never ending SA recession, and violence. If anything, latest Ranking show that Nairobi is the best destination for expatriates right now, wih your major South African cities at the bottom of the list.

Is that what expats ate looking for? Nairobi appeals to them!!

Welcome.

Welcome 🇰🇪

The safety you enjoyed is because criminals and potential terrorists dissapear without trace. Sometimes their bodies can be found dumped in rivers on Nairobi outskirts. The speculation is that Kenyan government has a special unit of law enforcement agents that conduct summary executions and extrajudicial killings. They neutralize criminals to save lives of many innocent civilians and to send a chilling warning to those intending to engage in terror and crime. I think South Africa need to borrow a leaf from Kenya to tame the rising cases of violence and crimes in your cities.

@@ksgrmdsdl2383 if we do that we would kill a lot of foreigners and deemed as *enophobic

@@Nombulelo_ace Lol!

I agree with you. But in terms of investment attractiveness, Nairobi takes the lead. So many international companies prefer Nairobi as a good place to set up a regional headquarters. It was ranked the first in Africa in that case

Nairobi, a city without Gold mine, oil and all that still levels up and be competing a mixed race Metropolitan city in Africa. Respect

I bet you have no idea on how Nairobi is growing in its political and financial importance in not only the region but also Africa as a whole. Johannesburg used to be a big shot back in the day, but the decade-long recession has led to stagnation in its development and importance. Nairobi on the other hand is rising real fast and will soon surpass all South African cities in everything.

@@ksgrmdsdl2383I'm in Nairobi right now as a South African, Nairobi is doing well in East Africa but you guys have miles to go, this comparison is not a good idea, it's better to recognize value of cities without comparison, I know many suburbs in Nairobi were white and Indian my guy, so those comments on race are no excuse

@Praise If you think Nairobi is a nothing city, check how it trounces your Cape Town and Johannesburg in the latest wolrd ranking of where expats would rather be. You will be embarrassed of your statement.

It's South African such as yourself who makes us look bad. You're the king to who now?

I agree

you should have some loyalty to your country like south Africans have for theirs. Joburg is ahead but all indicators point out that Nairobi is catching up

Does Jo'burg have a metro system or an organized transport system? And don't bring the gautrain thing because it serves a specific purpose. What you call taxis in Jo'burg is a joke and Kenyan matatus are even better and a culture in its own right.

@@alexchui3511 they really need good transport using motorbike , SA has good public transport do your research

Same here ..l was there 4 times because of work Johannesburg wins

It will take Nairobi 10 years max, ain't nothing like 20 years, joburg ain't that far ahead anyway, was there and noticed that it's a dying city

20 yrs like seriously you are sick like u need a doctor

Lol 20-30 its to long speek of 5-10 maybe it aint much ahead of nairobi much like your trying to say nairobi is coming up so smoothly

20/30 years? C'mon, Jo'burg is not London or New York. There's no much difference between Nairobi and Jo'burg and in fact Nairobi has closed down on Jo'burg. In 5-10 years, there'll be no difference between the two. Having said that, Nairobi has a natural appeal and a national park within its boundaries.

But Nairobi is loved by expats!! That is the point!

no chance itll beat joburg

It will never beat Joburg

There is nothing called a third world, this was a cold war political jargon which did not even refer to the degree or rate of development. All the countries of the world are developing countries whatever that means. Covid 19 has shown us that the countries we thought were developed were in fact developing, because their health systems and infrastructure could not even cope with a mild pandemic. Their political systems were so incopempetent to an extent that their own citizens are starting to doubt the political aptitude of their leaders. Most of those countries' infrastructure is old and delapidated. Check American and British cities and their ghetoes you will be amazed.

Now that you have never left Nairobi, just keep quiet. Because you are speaking from an uninformed perspective.

Yes in SA there are white people, but they have lived in SA for over 400 years and classify themselves as South Africans. However, before you let jealousy overcome you, you must understand SA is a young democracy of 27 years. Before the democracy black people were deprived to owning wealth by the system, and it is going to take a while before we claim everything (as black South Africans). Besides we don't care who has it because a lot of us are able to live a quality life in our own country and it is a fact that white people handle their things with care and are diligent beings unlike most countries who cast them out instead of seeking to live in peace with them.
