​@user-lf2ov1eu9y - Only now because African YTer's like Steven Ndukwu and others are showing another side of Africa, Western journalists can no longer sell the propaganda Africa is only about wars, poverty and disease.

Spot on! They sustain their propaganda for more grants and very coy humanitarian efforts.

Fax. Even those traveller youtubers don't go to these parts of the country. They only go to poorer slum areas

You guys are coping. Western documentaries and youtubers show everything, from the rich and developped sites to the lesser ones. Stop thinking we want your bad. It is just resentment.

You're from Ghana 😂

Not the most developed though

Ivory Coast is really beautiful

@@Moon-factsthey are not descendants of 1 African country.

yeah, but you have to acknowledge that this perspective was hard leaning on the priviledged upper class. The same way people outside of the U.S. might not know how terrible conditions are in places like indian reservations or in regions like west virginia. It is nice to see prosperity but it is valuable to allows be cautious of falling under the influence of propaganda (good or bad).

@@DrGodzirrathe video clearly showed different part where different social class lives. Nothing like propaganda here

Chinese media also don't show this. Stop going on our nerves.

Yes, they prefer death mosquitoes

I'd say the problem is not western media shows a "false" Africa, but little Africa anyway. News is crisis. Crisis is war, terrorism, famine. Of course that is shown first, maybe giving some people wrong impressions. But hey, who in Europe should think people in Africa were overall living in mud houses? Ignorants do, not others. Thats not a point of media, but of education and intelligence.... On the other hand: Africa is diverse. Isn't some criticism about neo-colonial perspectives that people speak only of Africa like it was one country, while there are over 50 of them? So we also should not state things like "Africa in western news". And finally: progress is not just a matter of technology or infrastructure, but of social infrastructure, good governance, accountable and without corruption, free media, democracy and human rights. >Things not visible in videos.

No 'war' in congo plus the country is beautiful

I am an American who has been to nine and counting African countries. This was one of my favorites. I will say that while "modern" conveniences are great, please make sure that as you "develop" that you don't replicate the mistakes of western countries. Development is relative. I have slept in the best hotels on the continent and stayed with very wealthy friends in palatial mansions but one of my fondest dearest moments was napping in a small village on a mat with "grandma" and awakening to feast eaten with her loving family.

Cool but where’s the middle/normal class 😐

It’s a part the south of ivory coast, but this reality is spread out to other tribes throughout Africa. Remember our countries were created by colonial demarcations!!

Lagos is the most develop city in west Africa,Lagos is a state , from economy to land areas covered Lagos is way ahead of any west African city

@@fesderi3933 from what I see Lagos is not even more developped than Dakar, there is lot of area in Lagos where they didnt have full time access to electricity. Road are way better in Abidjan than Lagos. There is lot of reasons why Abidjan is way more attractive than Lagos I could mentionned some of them Abidjan is safer, cleaner, well organised,with better urbanism than Lagos.

True av learnt that too, they are a lot of nice capital cities in Africa that are low key and not announcing the beauty of their cities too. Talk of Cairo Egypt,Tunis etc..personally av found Lagos to be too populated with poor sanitation and electricity too is a problem. My dear Nigerian people at times learn to appreciate the beauty of other people's cities without comparisons with your own. Sending love and light💕

Am Nigerian and even I don't think Lagos is the most developed in West Africa, Lagos is good for business that's for sure but living in Lagos I would rather be in Abuja, Abidjan is amazing. Love it

Lagos, Nigeria in general, has a lot of potential. What it needs is great leadership

Latinos are europeans of Iberian and Mediterranean origin we are not european we are natives to america at least those with blood tie to the land, but as far as africa hope they develop the right way because if you dont develop properly if you go to fast destroying nature you will have massive enviromental issues like in some countries in the americas

Stop lying. Nigerians are the most Afrocentric people on the planet. Everywhere Nigerians go we are always promoting Africa. No other country in Africa has done more for Africa than Nigerians. You can check the record. Many Nigerian soldiers have even died for peacekeeping missions to help other Africans (check your facts). This is the type of stuff we don't brag about. Yet, if we talk about being the best in anything else (which is verifiably true), you will say we are bragging 😂 Make we brag small, abeg.

Every country has such 'bloopers'. 'Show-off's of rulers. But the builders were proud of their achievements and the people who gave the money through taxes, can be proud too. So.. attend church as many times ws possible. Do not think of the ruler, but of your religion. Think of all the people together celebrating their holy days.

Not really! Corruption is rampant with a 35 billion debt. Show the villages not only Abidjan.

@@Atchinin-ih4wq There is any country without debt?

@seydoutraore2867 Tous les pays ont des dettes à l'exception de la Suisse. Cependant, les dettes ne sont pas gratuites. On doit les rembourser. Le ratio dette/ PIB de la CI est de 57%. Nous avons une dette de 39 milliards de dollar. Ratio dette/PIB. Ethiopia 31% Botswana 18% RCA 11% comment allons-nous rembourser cette dette? En gestion, tu prends des dettes que tu peux rembourser. La CI emprunte des dettes pour payer des dettes à court terme. En d'autres termes, la CI n'a pas une reputation de solvabilité.

@@Atchinin-ih4wq le Ghana a 90% de taux d'endettement, le Sénégal en 75%, L'Angola 80%... Poser la question '' comment allons nous rembourser '' c'est avoir une faible culture économique. La dette on la rembourse tous les jours. C'est un élément inherent à l'économie d'un pays. Le service de la dette existe dans Tous les budgets. On rembourse et on en prend. C'est un cycle sans fin tant qu'on est un État ou une entreprise. Bref la Côte d'Ivoire n'est pas le pays le plus endetté d'Afrique. Il ne fait même pas partie du Top 20 des plus endettés. Donc trouver d'autres arguments quand vous voulez dénigrer

@seydoutraore2867 La dette est un cycle sans fin quand tu as des personnes irresponsables qui administrent un pays. Prenons Seydou Traoré comme exemple, tu ne prendras pas des dettes jusqu'à la fin de ta vie. Les dettes sont nécéssaires pour les projets dans un pays, mais le pays doit aussi faire de la collection interne pour ses projets - impôts, revenus du port etc... Chez nous, nous avons tout vendu. ÉÉCI d'alors à des compagnies qui ne paient pas d'impôts, on a vendu aussi la RAN, et La SODECI. Nous avons 12% des ressources pétrolières et si nous exportons notre pétrole, la France prend encore 6% du revenu et prend les autres 6% en dévises si nous voulons du CFA. Nous avons un pays qui existe pour que la France soit au concert des nations pendant que la population vivote. On construit des ponts à péage pour avoir de la collection interne après que a vendu nos compagnies - des compagnies qui ont le monopole du marché . La corruption est rampante en CI. Aucun audit n'est exécuté dans l'administration.C'est incroyable mais vrai. On prend une dette de 39 milliards, comment allons payer cette dette? Avec quoi? Les ponts et routes à péage? Le Ghana et les pays que tu as cités ne sont pas la CI. Parlons du Ghana, ce pays a de serieux problèmes économiques, ce pays n'a pas une réputation de solvabilité.. Quand tu prends une dette, une partie de la dette est à court terme ne doit pas susciter de problèmes. Aller prendre des dettes pour payer d'autres dettes - la partie à court terme les Américains appellent ce plan moribond un pas en avant, deux pas en arrière ( One step forward, two steps back) Être digne de foi financièrement parlant, c'est pouvoir payer ses dettes le moment venu et si le pays veux prendre d'autres dettes pour d'autres projets le pays doit avoir la certitude que le moment venu cette dette sera remboursée. Mr.watara est un économiste, malheureusement il y a des économistes qui ne sont pas de très bons gestionnaires. J'ai le droit de le critiquer, car il a dit qu'il fera la CI l'Indonésie de l'Afrique. La CI est loin en dévéloppement des pays Asiatiques. Watra construit 10 ponts à Abidjan et prolonge l'autoroute, c'est du jamais vu.
