Stayed in this beautiful city of Cotonou for 4 years, left the country for Nigeria since 2016. Seeing the height of development and how they continue to grow is stunning. A city where I can walk by 2am without fears and constant electricity. Fresh breeze and all

Solid road network with no single pothole or flooded streets. I also enjoyed the paved inner estates far from the highways. I really love the well-manicured lush green lawns and flower beds along the major roads. Everything about this city is scenic and something that should be copied by Nigerian states as their capital cities: Enugu, Owerri, Abakaliki, Calabar, Uyo, Benin, Ibadan, Umuahia, Awka, Ilorin, Lokoja, Asaba, Port Harcourt, etc.

It's ludicrous!!!! They compare a 5-10km road that is well groomed in a country to Lagos, really. He should have shown where the citizens live too. Let's see if Lagosians can live in those old houses that look like old Ikeja and old Agege with high rent, except for a few places that are reserved for the expats foreigners, diasporan, and super rich. A country where most houses don't even have a kitchen and toilets inside the main building. He should ask for the rent of those beautiful homes and compare them to Lagos. Most of these countries only focus on the capital and central business district. The rest of the country is not developed. Countries that owe Nigeria for electricity for more than 3yrs and still benefit from Nigerian investors in their country. Please Nigerian KZbinr, you can do better. Cotonou is doing just fine but don't ever compare it to Lagos that has the GDP of 4 African countries including Ghana. If you're so desperate to compare perhaps use your state of origin or use our Capital ABUJA.

Electricity from Nigeria is like 5% today . Do you think our president is joking here ? You think that Bénin of today is the one you will look down like you did before ? Fore m sure Nigeria is still being sustained by Bénin republic in agricultural products and vice versa, we need this collaboration for the both countries, keep away your arrogance

Just shut up and take correction. Pride and arrogance have destroyed Nigerians in their illusional praise of Lagos. That is delusional because Lagos does not rank among the 4 most beautiful cities in West Africa. I am not even talking of Africa. It is now that the administrators of Lagos have woken up to that reality by adding extensions like Eko Atlantic City and Lekki to try and bring some aesthetic sanity to the chaotic former capital city of Nigeria. Thank God for the coming of our beautiful FCT, Abuja. We would have become a laughing stock to the whole of Africa and the world. I got amazed after doing a video tour of Nairobi, Abidjan, Dakar, Mombasa, Dar es Salaam, Cairo, Johannesburg, Durban, Pretoria, Cape Town, Windhoek, Luanda Angola, etc. We are nowhere near these countries in terms of city development. With all the wealth Nigeria has and the number of dollar billionaires she parades, the infrastructural development in our major cities are poor and disgraceful. Let the truth be told. I am not given to blind loyalty or patriotism. We need to massively and aggressively open up our cities or mark out new territories for development if the old ones have become too difficult to ameliorate, reshape and upgrade.

How the mighty has fallen? Who would have foreseen or imagined that someday Nigerians will migrate to Benin Republic, precisely Cotonou, to become commercial motorcyclists and earn a higher-valued CFA Francs than Naira? The evil APC led by Muhammadu Buhari and Bola Tinubu has brought us down to this humiliating and disgraceful situation. As of the good roads and aesthetically landscaped city layout which attests to the high quality of urban planning in most francophone countries, I am not surprised because they do that with the help of France. Paris is more beautiful than London. The former British colonies in Africa bear the tight, unattractive and traffick-choking city-planning imprints of their colonial master. All former French colonies in Africa have better cities than their former British counterparts. You cannot compare Cote D'Ivoire, Dakar, Cotonou or Lome to Freetown in Sierra Leone, Accra in Ghana, Banjul in The Gambia, or Lagos in Nigeria. That is a fact. Our leaders have no sense of quality service, beauty and lasting investment in infrastructural development. Abuja may be the only exception, if we continue, following the city's original master plan.

Igbos should work harder to develop their region and get the seaports in the Old Eastern Region to serve their needs. They have fed their enemies in Lagos for too long.I don't even know why people are jampacking themselves in lagos. The most stressful and dirty city in West Africa.

Cotonou is cleaner, better, and more tiddy than Lagos. Your Ibadan is like where people raise animals a slum with no good architecture, no clean road, no eyeblowing boulevard , no well designed place, no diplomatic structure, just old and untidy buildings with no beauty Etc we Can't compare this to Cotonou which is a very organised and beautiful city full of beautiful boulevard, modern villas , modern architecture. Comparing Ibadan to Cotonou is comparing night to day.
