Ivory Coast Has Changed - Abidjan Like You've Never Seen before

[@kamagateadama3890]

I'm so proud of my beautiful city. 🥰

[@ugowilliams8437]

Abidjan is a compact beautiful city with narrow intracity arterial roads and carriageways. I say beautiful because to some people, the beauty of a city is defined by high-rise buildings and skyscrapers. To others, it is about amenities, space, landscapes and greenery. I have always maintained that all African cities are beautiful in their unique ways. Kudos, Ivoriens.

[@DAMINATION_1]

Abidjan is beautiful Hope to see the city get even better

[@moussanbarthelemyyapo1865]

Thank you for the description of this district and those buildings which are essentially admnistratifs places, the offices where work Ivoirians, the banks assurances, the headquarters of national and international institutions, ministries..................................

[@ye4736]

Please Go to Zone 4 - Bietry - Marcory to show them the modernity of Abidjan , in cocody go to Cocody Danga - 2 plateau Vallon - Riviera 4 Mbadon - Riviera 3 ..

[@soumi1984]

If you are so much better, why feel the need to come here and compare your cities? And im saying this as a half Nigerian myself, the only insecure people we see here trying to bash this beautiful country are Nigerians, not even Ghanaians. We were supposed to be competing with South korea, Singapore, which we had more GDP than in the 60s, but due to mediocrity and corruption, here we are, fighting against countries with lest than half our current GDP on who have better cities.

[@Themoralsfeeder]

Most of those people are the major problems of the nigeria itself

[@dennisbrown7930]

It's always Nigerians with their insecurities. Ghanaians don't care if Abidjan is better than Accra. When Nigerians watch a beautiful video of other countries they feel attacked and they begin to talk trash about the city

[@princejames1773]

As a Ghanaian, I'd like to express how happy and glad other West African countries look. Wish Ghana concentrates more on landscaping design, roads and green spaces as seen by our close neighbours. Well done cote d'ivoire

[@yahwada649]

There's literarily a video on this channel that shows how green Accra looks.. and how good their landscape is... what are you people talking about? Abidjan is cool but is not greener than Ghana.. yall definitely high..

[@maudoforiaffoh5518]

​@@yahwada649thank you. At least someone said my mind

[@princejames1773]

@@yahwada649 boss chill. I never made comparisons with how green each country was. I never made comparisons in the first place. A space can be green but it needs to be designed and controlled. I'm a Ghanaian. I've stayed in this country my whole life. I've seen what incompetency and lack of maintenance culture has done to our cities. There's no appealing design in majority of our cities landscaping. Don't get me wrong, Accra has its beautiful sides, but I know you agree that design, planning, and creativity goes a long way.

[@yahwada649]

@@princejames1773 lol I will have to disagree. What you people do is find some negative to say. I doubt yall Ghanaians anyway

[@princejames1773]

@@yahwada649 massa stop the fooling and listen to sense. Stop acting like the alata people we love to insult. I don't need to prove anything to you boss. We Ghanaians are not perfect. We still have a long way to go. If you state otherwise, then I wonder who should be accusing who of being a fake Ghanaian. Do you like the way our streets are designed? With all the pot holes and broken down pavements and signboards and posters everywhere. I'm not saying there isn't any work being done. But to me, its similar to laying and straightening your bed whilst your floor is a cluttered mess. If we don't speak about these things, they won't change for all of us to enjoy. Be there and be fooling yourself. Jon boy

Abidjan is the New york of West Africa

[@kriskros1592]

The most developed city in West Africa. As a matter of fact, no city in West Africa can beat Abidjan, period.

[@ochiegodfrey6428]

That's a lie. Abuja better than Abidjan

[@saturninazangon2123]

Abuja is over Abidjan, even Lagos is still domininating Abidjan

[@kriskros1592]

@saturninazangon2123 stop being naive. How can u compare Abuja to Abidjan? The Africa's tallest building is in Abidjan. A massive metro train is under construction in Abidjan, and it will have more stops (stations). Abidjan is the New York City in West Africa. Y'all Nigerians may talk back, but most y'all know that Abidjan ain't a joke.

[@Southernview3k]

​​​​@@kriskros1592 It is not by tall buildings. And mind you, Abuja is a new city compared to Abidjan. Abuja has an interstate standard gauge rail system that connects to other states and a metrorail system that runs within Abuja and currently, expansion of the metrorail underground system that will connect more districts of Abuja is under construction.

[@kriskros1592]

@Southernview3k Abidjan is the most developed city in West Africa, whether u like it or not. Ain't no argument here. I've been to both cities, and I know what I'm talking about, na'mean? Go check the proposed metro line. Imagine if the country has a lot of oil like its neighbors, I believe, the whole country would've been like Luxembourg.

[@saturninazangon2123]

Abidjan is beautiful and also there are lots of ongoing constructions, it is just fantastic. Abidjan is on the way to be neck to neck with Lagos if Lagos crosses arms.

[@seydoutraore2867]

Your first positive comment on Abidjan

lagos dirty

[@saturninazangon2123]

To be honest am ivoirien but I think in west Africa we are behind Nigeria and Ghana

Behind Nigeria but not Ghana.

[@yaoj9407]

I'm ivorian with a gahnian grandmother. I live in both capitals. Abidjan is more beautiful and well constructed than Accra. Accra looks more cleaner than Abidjan but this is due to the ghanaian culture influenced military regimes rigorous methods. Peut être Lagos, j'en sais pas trop.

[@aboaboyahciciniko7132]

But Ghana is developed than nigeria and Ivory Coast so what is you ppl point here, is it jealousy or hatred?

[@vincentlang5957]

I wonder what is the cost of living like over there

[@patrickdapaah]

From what I read online and heard, it is one of the most expensive cities to live in West Africa.

The cost of living here exorbitant, I stay in Abidjan, it is a costly city to stay but it has good and quality infrastructure

[@nanammm777]

Nigerian is more richest than Ivory cost! and ! Ivory cost is more develop then nigerian! why! the answer is! Democracy never bring a wise person as a president in 😀😀😀

[@jupiterplanet1316]

go to school first...ivory cost is way more developed than the poor Nigeria... in 2024 GDP per capital of Nigeria is just $877 but GDP per Capita of ivory cost is $2700...so ivory cost is 4 times richer than poor Nigeria

[@AfricasRealities]

Forget tall buildings, Abidjan can not be compared to Abuja. Abuja is intentionally planned not to include sky scrappers. So you can't use sky scrappers as yardstick. Abuja is by far a better planned city, the roads are wider and modern. The buildings are new, painted and sparkling. The street are green. Apart from highrise buildings and cluster of buildings, Abidjan is behind Abuja in many aspects.

[@jeangouho2571]

please just give to us aspects that's your are talking about. Do you have in Abuja power supply 24hx24. Tell us about public transportation (own by governement) in abuja. Do not forget water supply.

[@AfricasRealities]

@@jeangouho2571 You people are funny. The city center of Abuja, that is 6 times bigger than the plateau of Abidjan, which includes destricts like Central Business destricts, Garki, Garki 2, Wuse, Wuse 2, Asokoro, Maitama, Guzape, Gwarimpa, Kado, Jabi, Utako, Wuye, Karempe, life camp, Idu industrial, etc, have great 24 runing water from state water board. Only the hundreds of Estates and the numerous settlements that are built at the outskirts of the city, use bore holes for water source. Electricity is a general Nigeria's problem because it is given to every nook and cranny of the country, unliike some African countries that only concentrates Electricity to only the cities, and also, Nigeria's Electricity is also given to some neibouring countries. So our Electricity gets rationed and is not 24 hours nonstop. But most Abuja residents have many sources of power, Electricity, solar, Inverters, etc. So most Abuja homes have power for 24 hours. As for transportation, it is clear that the government of Abuja has banned motorcycles, tricycles and mini buses from plying the street of Abuja, but we have numerous private taxies, coaster buses and luxurious buses runing the streets of the city. We do not have problem of transportation in Abuja. There is also a metro train service runing from the city center down to the airport Which is 30km away. When you want to see beauty of a well planned city in Africa, Abuja is number 1 anytime.

[@jeangouho2571]

we do not rely on elictricity but it is a fact. Ivory coast supply electricity to liberia, sierra leone, guinée conakry, mali, burkina faso, ghana, togo and benin and we do not face light off or people are not using generetors for electricity. another fact is that we are in a top 10 countries with best quality road network including abidjan. kzbin.info?search_query=top+10+countries+with+best+roads+in+africa kzbin.info/www/bejne/gmnSnXZ4i5h8pLM kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6m9iXZ6drR1rMk In last link you will see the rank of your Nigeria in africa in terms of road network infrasructure.

​@@AfricasRealities Le Nigeria est 3 fois plus grand et plus que la Côte d'Ivoire . Normalement il ne devrait pas avoir de comparaison entre cest 2 pays. Vous parlez d'Abuja, allez y sur Google Eart voir yamoussoukro et zoomez! Vous allez voir que yamoussoukro n'a pas bouger depuis la guerre 15ans. Mais vous verrez ce qu'on appelle une ville tout aussi planifiee et organisée. Avec les institutions bien mises en places.Mais les choses se remettent en routes. Bravo à Abuja.
